Everyone needs compassion
And love that never fails
Let mercy fall on me

When everyone needs forgiveness
Kindness of the Saviour
The Hope of the nation

Saviour, They can move the mountains
All Gods are mighty to save
They are mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
They rose and conquered the grave
The Lords conquered the grave

So take me as you find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything that i believe in
Now i surrender

Shine a light in and
let the whole world see
Singing, for the glory of the risen kings
Lords, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen kings

This blog was created for my CDS-UIR then. It is for my personal use now.
This is my journal, but I'm no journalist. Hope my firm doesn't mind this cause I do not want to end up like Matt Buckner.

Weather was very bad this morning and afternoon. Looked like it would damage many trees and cause floods. However, it gave my windows some laundry services. Tidy and clean up your houses 'cos the mosquitos and cockroaches will come for shelter in your homes.

Usual family day. Went out to eat bla bla bla.

Visited C&C Mitsubishi. Wanted to test drive the evo 9 for fun, but suprisingly, out of stock. The new lancer ex looks nice. Evo 10 will be launched in December. Not interested anyway.

Time there is now, off to pay my mom a visit before work starts.

Good luck and all the best to everyone out there.

I feel that I'm a 'lil wierd, fancy blogging.
Been visiting numerous blogs over the past few days while slacking in office, so maybe I should start instead of giving comments about others. Spend some free time to improve my essay?

Anyway it has already started.

This blog was previously the one i created for my CDS-UIR project, and the previous posts are in relation to drug abuse (project) so do take a look just for some general knowledge. Not that fantastic as I got a C.

Didn't have good sleeps over the past few days. Time I have now, off to a nap.

So far I've done evaluations on 4 different websites.
Though facts and information given are useful and relevant, the site are not up-to-date. The latest article i could get was a 2002 article. Fortunately I could find some answers.

Site 4: http://www.socialworkers.org/research/naswResearch/substanceAbuse/default.asp
Organization
The site tells us how harmful a drug can be, and how social workers help out.

Discussion Forum: http://www.ycwa.org/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1151576970

Basically, I used google to do my research.
Organizational sites are more practical. They give statements based on what happened and research results.
Personal sites give statements which are based on one-sided views. May be bais or false. But it is based on what the author feels.
Subject-based sites are more theoratical. They go by the book.

My reflection: Even I search up to 10 different websites, i still find the same answers. But, I feel that doing my research with organizational sites is more effective in producing results.
