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, He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus 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 king
Jesus, Shine a light and
let the whole world see
Singing for the glory of the risen king

Ephraim, Yi Qin, Qin-Qin, Ben-ben. That's ME! God have given me an interesting personality. I'm a sanguine, in another word, an extrovert. I love to be around people. Some people accused that i'm lame. Well, i do find myself guilty, sometimes. Of course, at times, you will find me in very deep thoughts. I'm created to be thinker too.
Sometimes i think too much and can be rather emotions-driven. Curious about my love life? Well, the love of my life is God! I love gorry, bloody and gruesome movies and thrillers, such as SAW 1,2,3 ; Mindhunter; When a stranger calls etc. Jazz musics are pleasing to my ears. Buildiing a strong and biblical guys group to win the world is my vision!

topic: how do you find the measures against bird flu viruses
-10:52 PM
School have reopen and in the first week, all the schools around Singapore have requested that all their students will need to bring their thermometer. So what is the great concern for? All because of the recent deadly disease- the Avian flu, also known as the bird flu.
Many different methods of preventing bird flu have been suggested. Authorities in many countries have suggested that the people can purchase normal human flu vaccines. However, I felt that normal human flu vaccines might not be strong enough to be used against bird flu. Two drugs, Tamiflu and Relenza, have been suggested to be more effective. Even so, it is quite expensive. Thus not everyone will be able to afford. They are also in short supply. If there were to be a sudden outbreak of bird flu, they are unable to meet the demand of people. Also, they are not been tested. Which means that they might not be safe for consumption.
Other than using drugs and vaccines, we need to build up and maintain our immune system. We should take note of what we eat, ensuring that we have taken in the right amount of nutrients. We should also exercise regularly. A good vaccine but a bad immune system will not do much help.
Another way of preventing bird flu is to make sure we do not get up too close and personal with birds as birds flu are originated from birds. We also need to be more careful when it comes to handling birds as most cases of bird flu infection in humans have resulted from contact with infected poultry or contaminated surfaces.
No matter what, I felt that the most important thing is that everyone plays a part. We can think of as much prevention as possible, but everyone does not what he or she ought to do, it is still useless. Ultimately, it is up to each individual.
