A few more minutes and I will have to book in. Just hate the feeling of booking in. The feeling of leaving so many people that you love behind. The feeling of sadness multiply... what if something happens to me in camp training and I will never get up again? Besides my parents and family, who else will bother?

Just feeling sad since yesterday, but I know that God will raise me up on eagle's wings. I played the song On Eagle's Wings for mass today, and somehow, I felt something, the song touched me in a way (again). The song is really beautiful today, not because I played the song, but it has a special meaning to me. I wont be back next week due to field camp and this is the time when I will be disconnected from the rest of the world.

All the best to those who are having their NUS interview this week. :)

Take care and farewell to my friends and family whom I care so much. Will update 2 weeeks from now, provided if I am alive.

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
who abide in his shadow for life
Say to the Lord, "My refuge,
my rock in whom I trust!"

And He will raise you up
On Eagle's wings
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of his hand

The snare of the fowler will never capture you
and famine will bring you no fear
Under his wings your refuge,
His faithfulness your shield

And He will raise you up
On Eagle's wings
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of his hand

You need not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
though thousands fall about you,
Near you it shall not come.
And He will raise you up
On Eagle's wings
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of his hand

For to his angels he's given a command
to guard you in all of your ways;
up on their hands they will bear you up,
lest you dash your foot against a stone
And He will raise you up
On Eagle's wings
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of his hand
