Markets!!

I've discovered something about myself. I prefer shopping at markets rather than department stores. I get energized with the fresh food, the bargains, the individuality and the colourful array of stuff on sale at really good prices. At department stores, I get a little depressed because everything looks the same, it costs much more than I'm willing to spend, and looks so artificial. Sigh. The only thing I love about department stores is the perfume department [I will never buy perfume at a market].

Today, it was a rare opportunity to go to the market on a weekend. Anniversary was yesterday, so Sunday is free!!

Allister, Simon, Pegs and I went to the Rocklea markets. I ended up eating and shopping heaps. Haha. There were great Dutch pancakes, German sausages, slurpies, Dutch toasties, cheap $1 - $4 books, feature files, shelves, sour lollies, note books...Between all of us we purchased all of these things. It's great to see 'Ter' back for a little while. His nuttiness and spontaneity is weird but refreshing.

Anniversary yesterday was a lot of fun. A couple of mishaps with people stressed me a little, and performing when I have little control over AV is always stressful. But it all turned out good. I kept praying throughout to focus on God and to remember that I was there to bless the people.
It was great to see many wonderful performances by the different services and the increase of talent in our church!

Now....off to someone's birthday surprise....:)

Fear and Faith

I wish I could get rid of this feeling of underlying fear that grips me once in a while. After every high there is an inevitable crash. Or when I wake up, it's really hard to face the day not quite knowing what you should do or what the goal is in the end.  I can picture this trembling kid in my mind, who's quite desperate to cling on to something for safety and comfort. And that kid is me. But the kid's alone. And there's no one to actually to hang on to, and nothing to hug, not even a pillow. But the kid is also wary of clinging on to anything because that might prove disastrous, as it has in the past. You get entangled with unnecessary things or people So,  Kid is stuck with just holding nothing. Waiting.  I mean, it's not like God never warned or foretold that this journey would be lonely, I'd be seemingly alone, but He would be with me. I would look like I was wobbly but He would uphold me. The only time the fear really alleviates is when God's pres...

陶喆 David Tao Mash Up 2 - 流沙/普通朋友 （by Charis蔡佳靈 + Nray 胡恩瑞 + 森林ㄌㄜˋ園）

高中會重覆聽100遍的歌就是‘普通朋友' 和 ‘流沙‘ ☺️ 很開心可以和  森林ㄌㄜˋ園 團長阿綠把這兩首百聽不厭的歌串在一起，重編成band sound的歌；然後和  N-Ray 胡恩瑞  &樂手朋友們呈現出來。謝謝有才的朋友們的參與！也再次謝謝負責攝影間接 Rick Lin 。希望你們會喜歡～歡迎分享、留言、訂閱、按 💗  ！也可以跟我們說你們要接下來聽的歌 （那些點‘沙灘’的朋友我已看見你們的留言！) I remember re-playing 'Regular Friends' and 'Everything's gone' so many times on the way to school. They were such classic hits! Here's the 2nd David Tao mashup video we produced. My gifted singer/songwriter/keyboardist friend Green Lee sat down with me to re-arrange it together (guess which other song we used as a base for the two tracks 😁 ?). Had lots of fun recording and shooting this with my talented pals! Please help us share around, and do subscribe if you haven't yet!
