Audrey Assad: The House You're Building

For the past few weeks, I've been listening to Audrey Assad's "The House You're Building". She's one of the latest Christian singer-songwriter I've been listening to and I like her poetic lyrics and her voice is just original and other-worldly.

I just can't believe that there are so many great Christian singer-songwriters!

It's so difficult  to listen to secular music which has little meaning besides love and sex and most of the time the lyrics are non-inspiring and repetitive.

Funny thing is I can't find her albums in Singapore but I finally found it in Perth's Koorong!

My favourites are:

                                         The House You're Building



                                          Restless



We are the four walls and You're the Cornerstone ~ Audrey Assad

Downton Abbey

Lately, I've been really obsessed about Downton Abbey. The script and storyline fascinates me no end!! I love a good story and there're very few good story tellers in TV these days. Julian Fellowes has done a marvelous job of creating the characters and their lives. I wish I was born in that time where change was imminent yet everyone bore it with such grace and dignity.

This ranks as one of my favourites!

Warning: You may be addicted and then you have to wait a few months for Season 3!



And of course the show is largely carried by the amazing Dame Maggie Smith who is the only actress who can pull off this role.



Enjoy!
