shhh.

Essays in my head

2012-02-12T21:18:00.005+11:00

yea... just like the title says... i am having essays going on in my head

maybe its cause i hadn't been around people as often to talk

or maybe cause i slept too much so my brain feel too energised!

well, either way, cause of it, once again here goes another attempt to revive my blog

lately things are pretty good here in Aussie!

i move from my shoebox-size-of-a-room to Belinda's room!

twice the size! WHOOTS! *dances around the room whimsically*

i managed to throw 3 bags of garbage so i think its not bad for a hoarder like me...

but i still managed to fill up the room with many many things :poker face:

haha... but hey! at least:

• more then one chair is freed up

• the couch is empty waiting for guest

• there is leg space under my table

• and my door is able to swing open wide!

cant believed i actually posted these things online public...

but hey, there is millions of people ranting, i'm not the only one...

so who cares about iti-biti-singular me eh?

but i really really love my new room!

the rent is not bad! cause the Belinda held on to the apartment for a few years

and things can be strategically positioned, though some things seems to be higher...

theres more book-space, and spaces to hide things that i rarely use...

though there is more lights and a spot is not well lighted

but the table lamp that Belinda gave me is now put to good use! ^_^

and i still am excited that i actually can have ppl staying over comfortably!

cause i have a couch! oh joys! *rolls around the empty floor*

talking about people, i met Tani in the elevator by chance recently...

she is from America (how cool is that) and i am very jealous of her height (which i made it known to her, if she stays in my place she wouldnt probably climb around to get things like i do, which i did it in spiderman-style... like a boss!)

anyways, its her first time out of her continent and many things had happened to her, other then that, i think she seems to be doing well ^_^

this semester is gonna be interesting... so many white people!!! not that i am racist or anything (am factual! like "dr" Lloyd Lowery!)

they are just really different... cause usually i see a lot of asian, like what i see in Singapore

and so this is pretty cool! so diverse! now we have...

singaporeans, malaysians, indonesians, china chinese, mauritian, indians, italians, americans, australians... whos gonna be here next?! spanish? russians? jews?... if a british and an australian speak, would they have similar accent?

okay i seems to be rambling on and on and on and on...

i should get back to getting my mac organised...

じゃ！

Rainbows and Unicorns randomness...

2011-08-11T02:16:00.005+10:00

You. must. read this. shit.!
its hilarious!

a touching children's book written while high
they even has a dinosaur in it!

recently idk why i was so into all the mythical creatures
may be caused by MLP!

and i finished watching it... hehe...
they have dragons Pegasus, Ponies and Unicorns!
its wonderful!

lately i had just been sleepy all the time
something has been biting me and i cant see it
tried insect repellent etc
i just hope it gets too full and die soon =1

and i dunno whats wrong with me...
i cut my self twice yesterday... and it hurts... bad...
='(

oh wells
gonna do a little work and go back to sleep...
meh...

Babysitting

2011-08-06T14:47:00.004+10:00

well... 3 weeks has pass and its kinda rush
there's so much things to do and finished
but am happy that its all done! =D

and currently i am babysitting Eva!
she is so adorable... when she is sleeping... hehe
so glad i have tons of training from CCH...
else i will probably at my wits end...

she shat, cried and throw tantrum...
but then she is just a kid and she needs lotsa love =)
so i did the Joyce's Trick... and she slept on my shoulders...
it was an "awwwww..." moment...

one thing that amazes me is that she is not so sticky with her mom...
she part with her mom with ease...
which was... surprising!

and when she woke up i just pretended to sleep in front of her
and then she when back to sleep... awwww...

am glad that my house is so small... cause i can see her from every corner...
just in case she wakes up she would be able to see me too...

she would wake up every hour... but when she saw me she flops back to sleep! awww...

i guess when i was younger i used to not like afternoon naps too...
and i remember 姑妈 would sleep beside me and i will sleep...
but it was sure scary waking up not knowing where is everyone
at least seeing the person who put me to sleep was a nice confirmation =)

oh and my house was never this sanitized!
i clean the carpet like many many many times...
just to be sure she wouldnt pick up any weird paper from the floor

before she came... my house was like in a battle state...
paper all over... hair everywhere... knives at every corner...
but i made it child-proof now! clean spacious floor,
sharp object all put away...
papers all gathered neatly...
definitely will pass inspection! loll...

and am so excited to do my publication assignment!!
papercut dreams/reality book!
its gonna be so amazing!!
i could feel it in my bones! haha...

oh well... i should start getting on with my work while Eva is alseep =D

*whisper: "jya" *

Testimonies

2011-05-12T23:36:00.000+10:00

Well... Today was the first time we are all sharing testimonies in Urban Life!
which was... pretty interesting... reminds me of Cellgroup... i remembered when i was in N233... i would share a Testimony every week! and well... some testimony was a little childish but, my aim was to make sure i have sth to thank God for every week... not just the material blessings but also in every other area. i wanted to tell the world...[well... my cell group...] just how good my God has been to me that week. so my testimony ranges from winning a game i thought that i would lose, to stuck in the lift, to financial and material blessings to favor... etc etc.

but as time goes by... things changes, my heart changes, well everything always change right? during that time i was told to be childish and oh well, lets not get there. just leave it as... things are different now. As Hazel has said i am no longer unicorns and rainbows anymore... haha!

well, my post today would be about how things had been going since i had been here in Aussie.

well, before going to Aussie, after sending in my portfolio and stuff... i knew it in my heart that i am gonna go its just a matter of when my COE is coming so that i can fly.

and every step of the way i am very thankful to have support from ppl all ard, firstly my parents who allow me to go overseas, my cg members who prayed with me, my bro who came with me to help me settle down (though he had many things to do in SG), Jane for bringing me to Planet Shakers and get me into her Urban Life group, favor with the lecturers, Jaime my Singapore lecturer who brought me around, my parents (again)for visiting (they even re-organized my whole shelf >.<"), ErJie for always being there when i need to ask about anything and sending me a coat in this dreadful cold sporadic weather. Glad that i have hardworking like ants kind of friends (Limine & Aik chin etc...) to stir me up at times when i feel like slacking. and of course! my urban life members, each has help me in many ways, and accepted me into the group without second thoughts!

And just recently i got locked out cause i forgot my keys! Rose Mary and Sharon Rose took me into their house and allow me to stay for the night, else i need to pay $75 to open the doors. i stayed in their house till the reception is there so i only paid $5. they lend me a bed-couch, sleeping bag, blankets, towels, pj etc etc etc... i was super welcome there! Lappong who intro some ad hoc job to me cause dinner/ supper was a little expensive. Andy and Lin for treating me to some meals(s) and recently Jane saw my wallet was like *chui*, so she gave me one! (i am super touched even till now). I love all my URBIES! =D

things are just so diff since i had been here. had to wake on my own, cook on my own and do laundry etc. since Minah is no longer here with me to make me sunny side up... i had to try many times before i can get it right! Recently, i saw veins popping out on my arms! gonna be SUPER TRUDY! whahahaha...

just a few months ago, i was saving up to buy DS lite. but now... am saving up to buy water filter dispenser (it shall be my birthday present to myself). and my meals had to be planned. if i bought bread, i need to think of ways to eat the bread before they rot, or the vegetables. or plan to cook when i am free so that i can eat out or eat can food during dreadful times of datelines =P

Ending this post with some cool 自恋 (zi lian; self-loving) picture~

Kimi ni Todoke

2011-05-06T23:27:00.008+10:00

ahhh... yea... Chick Flick~
oh the joys of watching it!

and yes... just finished Season 1...
Sawako is so adorable~!!!

Shall Leave u with the Opening of Season 1:

やさしい日だまりにチャイムがディレイする
ほほをなでる風息吹は深くなってく

遠まわりの涙名前つけた明日
重なる未来色のライン

あどけないこんな気持ちも
はじけ飛ぶほど笑い合えた日も
大切に育てていけるように
とぎれとぎれの時を越えて
たくさんの初めてをくれた
つながってゆけとどけ

放課後の夕闇笑うきみの背中
ひそかなささやき触れたことのない想いの中

僕の中のきみときみの中の僕で
絡まる未来色のライン

雨上がりの街の匂いと
夢みたいな秘密を胸に抱いて
何度も泣きそうになってまた笑う
考えるよりずっとはやく
その胸に飛び込めたらいい
つながってゆけとどけ

何よりも大事なきみの前で
傷つかないように大事にしてたのはそう自分
その一言がもしもサヨナラのかわりになってしまっても
ありのまますべて

あどけないこんな気持ちも
はじけ飛ぶほど笑いあえた日も
大切に育てていけるように
ほんの少し大人になってく
君になりたい僕を超えて
つながってゆけ
今すぐきみに
とどけ

alrights i should really go finish up some work and sleep~
Jya! Mata ne~

2011-04-21T23:07:00.003+10:00

Whoots!

its finally the long awaited mid-term break!

it had been projects after projects and datelines after deadlines

to round it up... it was super exciting... and expensive at the same time...

grrrr... i cant believe how much i am spending...

and everytime i thought about how much i need to spend cause of the prints,

i got reminded of the words spoken to me during Orientation 2006 at NYP SDN... (then it was still SDN and not SIDM~! things changes...)

"Welcome to the most expensive course at..."

when i told my friends abt it... they so agree...

today the first day of holiday was so relaxing... and i feel so... >.<" bored

think i am too used to the usual rush of things =\

its so mundane, that if i told u about u might fall asleep! haha...

i did laundry, packing, cooking... and not to forget, went Aldi to Stock up!

sleeping yet? sleeping yet? haha...

okay... interesting fact of the day...

*imagine this in the まめしば (Mameshiba) style!*

A corn popped out and show u a Mameshiba face saying...

Amazing Race

2011-04-10T12:11:00.003+10:00

saw the Amazing Race on Tv...

the thoughts that come into my mind was,

"I will never ever ever be in things like this"

yea you heard me...

NEVER

so much strength and stamina is needed...

call me a girl cause i am just one!

haha...

havent exercised for ages...

maybe i should hit the gym... maybe.... during mid term break? maybe...

now am just filled up to the brim

i have a love hate relationship with Typography

its fun doing the work and yet so daunting at the same time

its though its easier to get design through at work

but it much more fun at school...

not much would be said...

but i am happy these days =)

and heres a preview of my penstrokes keystrokes formal...

-peaceout

Deployed

2011-04-04T18:21:00.007+10:00

today, as i am chatting with a friend, i came across this thing called a MWR pc... have u heard of it? i haven't... till now its for those military guys who were deployed to the wilderness! apparently, MWR stands for Morale Welfare and Recreation

cause for some time, while looking at what i am doing, i was thinking: "Wow! living the dream!" (sarcastic undertone) haha... well, its not so bad after all now... right? in comparison? right...? oh com on... there is pros and con on both sides =)

not sure how, but came across these blogs:

lovellsoldiers.blogspot.com

briannomi.wordpress.com

iraqstory.net

well, if u ask me "hows it going?"

i would probably give u the usual answer "GREAT" *smiles*

but actually...

Communication & Social Relation:

oral presentation of my artefact on 19th April

haha... and u wanna know what's my artefact?

Studio I:

group work thing due 10th April

Studio H:

packaging + report due 13th April

print on A3

Studio G:

7 page concertina (duo side; 14 pages) + report due 15th April

print on A0... maybe?

i so need help~

if i were to be in Sg... things would be so much easier... cause i am familiar with the printing shops, paper shops... plus got ppl in the industry to help...

not to forget that i need not do laundry or cook... sounds like a spoilt brat?

last year i would probably wish to have a PSP or a DS lite but now... i wish to have toaster/ oven/ hot water flask... haha... do i sound more grown up? =P

okays... thats all for now... gotta cook dinner~

*sounds so grown up right? yea! i know! hahaa...*

I AM THROUGH WITH IT!

2011-03-17T16:11:00.002+11:00

yea... am really through with rotten food in my house
i think i am really wasting money!
i dunno when then food is gonna rot
this few weeks here in Melbourne made me more aware of the lifespan of the fruits and vegetables...
i had seen how a banana, potato, ginger, tomato, bread and other things rot away...
leaving me with their waste water and smell...
its like ewwwwwwwww
i came home and had this yucky smell going on...
i thought its probably the neighbours or sth
but i smell ard... its not
no dead neighbour either...
so i smell ard the house...
couldn't be a dead rat right???
or cockroach??
there is no way any of these can come into my house...
i close the windows and sink hole etc...
plus the windows is fenced...
so i sniff around the house... cant find anything!
so i spray some anti smell thing... make my place smell nice and lavendery...
and to my horror! the smell came again!! i was so freaked out!
and then i found the source...
rotten potato and ginger... it was like sweating or sth la! i almost puke!!

Somebody should do a Mameshiba on this...
"Do you know?
A rotten potato smells fishy, like a dead rat or a dead sth."

oh and i lost weight again... ><"

2011-03-14T12:33:00.004+11:00

hahahhaa... btw... i am not racist

Freedom from Procrastination by Dr. Rev. A. R. Bernard

2010-09-01T03:34:00.002+10:00

extracted from Dr. Rev. A. R. Bernard's notes on FB

Procrastination is so common among college students that one university actually set up counseling services to help students overcome it. In an article on the school's website, psychologist William Knaust estimated that 90 percent of college students procrastinate-of these young procrastinators, 25 percent are chronic offenders who often end up dropping out of college.
What does procrastination mean to you? I define it as "The avoidance of a task that needs to be accomplished-this avoidance behavior usually leads to feelings of guilt, inadequacy, depression, and self-doubt."
Why do people procrastinate? Sometimes it's simple: Procrastinators have often acquired very poor time management habits. Chronic procrastinators usually have difficulty setting priorities, goals, and objectives. As a result they may become overwhelmed by relatively small tasks, so instead of tackling the job at hand, they give up before they get started.

Another reason that folks put things off is because of the fear and anxiety that comes from their own negative self-beliefs. They tell themselves, "I don't measure up to the task." Or "I feel totally inadequate." Or "I'll never be good enough to do the job right." The list of negative self-proclamations is almost endless. So instead of risking failure, these self-proclamations is almost endless. So instead of risking failure, these self-styled critics just keep putting things off, with predictably unhappy results.
If you've acquired the habit of procrastination, you know what a destructive habit it can be. And when you stop to think about it, you have to admit that procrastination interferes with your own happiness. After all, many of the things you keep putting off have the potential to improve your life.
Maybe you've avoided going back to finish school. Or perhaps you "just haven't gotten around to" searching for a better job. Or maybe you've been hindered by a hundred other emotional roadblocks too numerous to mention. If so, it's appropriate to ask yourself what you've been waiting for, and why.

If you're waiting for the conditions to be perfect (or, for that matter, if you're waiting for yourself to become perfect), it's time for a large, sobering dose of reality. When it comes to improving yourself or your situation, the timing is never "perfect." But it's always the right time to take positive steps to improve your own life or the lives of your loved ones.
Overcoming procrastination begins when you honestly examine your feelings toward the task at hand. So ask yourself, "Are my feelings valid? Or am I exaggerating my own fears of inadequacy while at the same time imagining that everything must be perfect before I can begin?" And while you're at it, ask yourself if you're afraid to fail.
Happiness is understanding that failure is the womb for success. Happiness is understanding that conditions are never "perfect" for doing anything in this life. (I remember one young man who told me he was waiting to save enough money to get married. I told him, "You'll never get married!")
Happiness is freedom from fear and from all of the negative children of fear-all those nonsensical, inappropriate, overblown fears that have heretofore caused you to put things off. Procrastination is the thief of time and the grave of opportunity.
Face facts: There will always be obstacles in the way of your success. But please don't focus too intently on those obstacles; focus, instead, on your goal. Decide what you want to do; get serious, get smart; and then do it. Now!

A Simple Step
Tips for Getting Things Done
1. Have a clear understanding of your short-and long-term goals, and set your priorities in accordance with those goals.
2. When faced with distasteful tasks, do them immediately, preferably first thing in the morning (even if the unpleasantness is a low-priority activity, go ahead and get it out of the way if it can be completed quickly). Dispatching distasteful tasks sooner rather than later will improve the quality of your day and prevent you from wasting untold amounts of energy in the process of fighting against yourself.
3. Avoid the trap of perfectionism. Be willing to do your best, and be satisfied with the results.
4. If you don't already own one, purchase a daily or weekly planning system that fits your needs. If used properly, a planning calendar is worth many times what you pay for it.
5. Start each work day with a written "to-do" list, ranked according to importance. At lunch time, take a moment to collect your thoughts, reexamine your list, and refocus your efforts on the most important things you wish to accomplish during the remainder of the day.

Talking To God

2010-06-22T23:18:00.004+10:00

by Jeff Strite
Matthew 6:5-6:15

(Preacher) "Our Father who art in heaven..."

"YES?" (voice off stage with booming bass and reverb)

"(pause)Our Father who art in heaven..."

"YES? WHAT DO YOU WANT JEFF?"

"Who is this?"

"WHO DO YOU THINK IT IS?

"Well, not too many people I know sound like this!"

"I SHOULD HOPE NOT"

"Come on now, who is this really?"

"THIS IS YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN JEFF."

"Right... come on now, who are you?"

"THIS IS GOD... DO YOU WANT ME TO PROVE IT?"

"No, no, no, that’s all right, I’ll take your word for it... but why have started talking to me now? You’ve never done is before."

"BUT YOU CALLED ME."

"Called you? I was just praying."

"WELL, HERE I AM, WHY DID YOU CALL?"

"I didn’t mean anything by it. I was, you know, just saying my prayer for the day."

"GOOD, GO RIGHT ON."

"Hallowed be thy name..."

"WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY THAT?"

"By what?"

"BY ’HALLOWED BE THY NAME.’"

"It means... it means... I don’t know what it means. It’s just part of the prayer. What does it mean?"

"IT MEANS ’HONORED, HOLY, WONDERFUL.’"

"Thank you Lord. "thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.’"

"DO YOU REALLY MEAN THAT?

"Sure, why not?"

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT?"

"Doing? Not much, I guess. I just think it would be great if you got control of everything down here, like you have up there."

"HAVE I GOT CONTROL OF YOU?"

"Well, I am the preacher here, I go to church 2 to 3 times a week, I visit people all the time, I have Bible studies a couple times a
week.."

"THAT’S NOT WHAT I ASKED YOU. WHAT ABOUT THOSE BAD HABITS OF YOURS THAT YOU KNOW ARE IN DIRECT CONFLICT WITH MY WILL IN YOUR LIFE?"

"But Lord, I’m just as good as most of the people in the church!"

"EXCUSE ME. I THOUGHT YOU WERE PRAYING FOR MY WILL TO BE DONE. IF THAT IS TO HAPPEN, IT WILL HAVE TO START WITH THE ONES WHO ARE PRAYING FOR IT. LIKE YOU, FOR EXAMPLE."

"Oh, all right... I guess I do have some hang-ups... now that you mention it. You could probably name several other problems."

"GOOD. NOW WE’RE GETTING SOMEWHERE. WE’LL WORK TOGETHER, YOU AND I. SOME TREMENDOUS VICTORIES CAN BE WON. I’M PROUD OF YOU."

"Look Lord, I need to finish up here. This is taking a lot longer than it usually does. ’Give us this day our daily bread...’"

"YOU NEED TO CUT OUT THE BREAD. YOU’RE OVERWEIGHT AS IT IS."

"Hey, what is this, criticize me day?"

"PRAYING IS A DANGEROUS THING. YOU COULD WIND UP CHANGED YOU KNOW. THAT’S WHAT I’M TRYING TO GET ACROSS TO YOU. YOU CALLED ME, AND HERE I AM. IT’S TOO LATE TO STOP NOW... KEEP ON PRAYING. I’M INTERESTED IN THE NEXT PART OF YOUR PRAYER (PAUSE)... WELL, GO ON."

"I’m afraid."

"AFRAID? OF WHAT?"

"I know what you’ll say."

"TRY ME AND SEE."

"And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors..."

"WHAT ABOUT-----?"

"See, I knew it! I knew you would bring them up! Why, Lord, you know the lies that have been told about me, and they continue until this very day. I have lost friends because of them, not to mention what has been done to my reputation. I know it was wrong to swear to get even with them, but ..."

"FORGIVE THEM. THEN I WILL FORGIVE YOU. THEN THE HATE AND SIN WILL BE THEIR PROBLEM AND NOT YOURS. YOU WILL HAVE SETTLED THE MATTER IN YOUR HEART AND BEFORE MY THRONE."

(petulant) "But Lord, I can’t forgive them."

"THEN, I CAN’T FORGIVE YOU.

(pause)"Oh, you’re right. You always are. MORE than I want revenge on them, I want to be right with you. Alright, alright, I forgive them. I want to walk the right road in life. I’m tired of always feeling miserable. Now that I think about it, no one can cause me to feel miserable without my permission. But, please help me Lord, to let my actions do the talking in showing forgiveness. I am really going to need your help, your grace and your Spirit."

"THERE NOW! WONDERFUL! HOW DO YOU FEEL?"

"Hmmm. Well, not bad. Not bad at all. In fact, I feel pretty good! You know, I don’t think I’ll have to go to bed uptight tonight for the first time in a long time. May be I won’t be so tired from now on because I’m not getting enough rest."

"YOU’RE NOT THROUGH WITH YOUR PRAYER. GO ON.

"Oh! Alright. ’And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil"

"GOOD! GOOD! I’LL DO THAT. JUST DON’T PUT YOURSELF IN A PLACE WHERE YOU CAN BE TEMPTED."

"I don’t understand."

"SURE YOU DO. YOU HAVE DONE IT A LOT OF TIMES. YOU GET CAUGHT IN A BAD SITUATION. YOU GET INTO TROUBLE AND THEN YOU COME RUNNING TO ME, ’LORD, HELP ME OUT OF THIS MESS, AND I PROMISE YOU I’LL NEVER DO IT AGAIN.’ YOU REMEMBER SOME OF THOSE BARGAINS YOU TRIED TO MAKE WITH ME, DON’T YOU?

"Yes, and good grief, I’m ashamed, Lord, I really am."

"WHICH BARGAIN ARE YOU REMEMBERING?"

"Oh, come on, Lord... give me a break! I’m sorry, Lord. I really am."

"GO AHEAD AND FINISH YOUR PRAYER."

"For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and Glory, forever and ever."

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT WOULD BRING ME GLORY? WHAT WOULD REALLY MAKE ME HAPPY?"

"No, but I’d like to know. I want to please you. I can see what a real mess I’ve made out of my life. And I can see how great it would really be if I was truly one of your followers."

"YOU JUST ANSWERED MY QUESTION."

"I did?"

"YES. THE THING THAT WOULD REALLY BRING ME GLORY IS TO HAVE PEOPLE LIKE YOU TRULY LOVE ME. AND I SEE THAT HAPPENING BETWEEN US, NOW THAT SOME OF THOSE OLD SINFUL ATTITUDES ARE EXPOSED AND OUT OF THE WAY... WELL, THERE’S NO TELLING WHAT WE CAN DO TOGETHER."

"Lord, let’s see what we can make of me, OK?"

"YES, LET’S JUST SEE.

"Amen"

APPLY: What you have just observed was an experience that many Christians would give anything to be part of - God speaking personally to them.
A powerful prayer life is an elusive goal for many who feel that they just don’t have the flowery language or verbal skills to pray like others they have heard. So when they do pray, they are apologetic, intimidated and timid.

Prayer is worship.. and worship wasn’t meant to be that way
* Paul wrote Timothy "I want men everywhere to lift up holy hands in prayer I Tim. 2:3.
* Hebrews tells us that Jesus died and rose from the dead so that we could have boldness in approaching the throne room of God.
And yet, many feel as if their prayers don’t make it through the ceiling.
Jesus’ answer to this is that you need to know that there are 3 pitfalls that will undermine your prayer life and then you need to know - solutions to those pitfalls.

I. Pitfall #1 = Praying the Prayer of the hypocrite
Matthew 6:5-6 "When you pray don’t be like the hypocrite..."
Was Jesus condemning public prayer? (go to your closet…). NO. What He meant was that, for the Christian, private prayer should be the norm. But then, so should public prayer.
· Acts 2:42 "They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching, and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread, and to prayer."
· Justin Martyr commenting on weekly worship said that each Sunday the church gathered for teaching, fellowship, communion and… prayer.
· Jesus’ prayer during the last supper (John 17) was public.

NO, I think Jesus was less concerned with the form of our prayers (whether they were private or public) than He was with their substance.

The setting for the text we’re reading this morning was a time when the pious would stop everything, put on their prayer shawls (Elaborate) and also put on a show. The hypocrisy of the Pharisees (that Jesus was addressing) was that they prayed for the benefit of the wrong people for the wrong reason.

Preachers and others have too often fallen into a similar trap by trying to preach through their prayers.

ILLUSTRATION: When Lyndon Baines Johnson was President, he had several guests in for a meal at the family room of the White House. LBJ had given the honor of giving grace to journalist Bill Moyers (an ex-Baptist minister). As Moyers began to softly say grace, LBJ - who could not understand what was being said - interrupted Moyers "Speak up man." Without looking up and barely stopping in mid-sentence, Bill Moyers replied "I wasn’t talking to you."

Solution to the trap of hypocrisy is this:
1. Spend great amounts of time alone with God
2. Prayer should begin with acknowledging who He is (out of 66 word prayer, 24 are devoted to who God is, and 28 to what we need - our ratio should be similar).

II. Pitfall #2 = Praying the Prayer of the Pagan
"Do not keep on babbling like the pagans" (vs7)
Sociologists have noted that the more comfortable we are with others, the less we have a need to talk.

ILLUS: I had a revealing experience with my nephew as we drove together to Coldwater, Michigan.
"How’s school?"
"Fine," he replied.
"Ready to play basketball?"
"Yep."
"Hungry?"
"No."
“Thirsty?"
"No."
It became apparent that he just didn’t feel like talking. But he wasn’t being rude or harsh. He felt comfortable just riding along quietly with me. So, I just quit talking... eventually he began to open up.

“Be still and know that I am God” we’re told in the Psalms.
Example of a child in your lap - the most precious moments are when they want to do nothing more than sit there with their arms around your neck saying nothing. That’s how we should visualize our time with God.

III. Pitfall #3 = Praying the Prayer of the Prejudiced
This is perhaps the most critical issue to deal with in our prayers. Jesus mentioned it 3 times before his discussion of prayer and once or twice after. It was so significant that He not only included the matter in His model prayer but also added a little paragraph afterwards… just in case you missed its impact:
"Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors" (Matt. 6:12) is what He tells us in the prayer itself. Then He follows up with:
"For if you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you... But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." (Matt. 6: 14-15)

Why would this be so important to Jesus?
ILLUSTRATION: Woman in Illinois began ministering to children from divorced families, attempting to heal their wounds and pain. One of the illustrations that she had them do was this: Take water in Mason canning jar (about 1/2 full) and explain that this water represents the substance of your life. The lady counselor had the children squirt little vials of food coloring into the water in accordance with their pain, anger & hurts.
Some would squirt in only a couple drops, others would almost violently put in as much as they could. In the end, the water was black from the spread of the food coloring.
It was black because no light could get through.
What is God? Light. And He also can not penetrate a heart that is clouded with hatred, anger, and pain. What is needed is to pour out forgiveness for others so that our hearts can be once again pure and clear before God’s eyes (pour in bleach - it will take about a minute for the cloudiness to clear).

(while the bleach is doing its action on the food coloring, divert the audiences’ attention by telling the Bible story of the man who was forgiven great debt and yet refused to overlook the much smaller debt of another... The master told the unforgiving man that his entire debt had been restored. Significance: this type of short sighted attitude endangers our salvation).

Return their attention to the glass, now clear of the darkness of the food coloring and elaborate on the power of Jesus to forgive all of our sins and clean up the darkness of our souls.

IV. Do you want a powerful prayer life?

1. Learn to forgive
2. Be still in God’s presence
3. And pray to God often and personally

Amazing week!~

2010-05-14T18:17:00.000+10:00

i was really blessed as we were ministering to each other
even though i have gone through some of the lessons,
however, going through them in SOT is different.
its really exciting as we prophecy over each other.

its really shocks you sometime how God can tell you things in advance
so that you will be prepared, and when it happened, it was like... woah~

and HEY HEY! cell group was great!
things are sometimes beyond what we can see.
so take courage! =)

the animation art standard was there
chibi, serious, or stylized animation was there
they didnt use the white human to economized...
and i like the way they made it gothic and yet light hearted.
if you screen shot the anime, you can see the placing of the elements were quite thought through.
even in character design, it was amazing!
eg01, Medusa-> snake witch -> many snakes breeds in her
eg02, Tsubaki-> scentless flower-> ninja weapon
they even give character to sun and moon!
their songs were quite catchy too!
so what are you waiting for? watch it today~!

Bbjl2g.exe File Details -
File Type – EXE – Bbjl2g.exe is a executable file
First Identified – March 25 2010

How did my computer get infected with this virus?
Computer viruses can come from many different sources. Generally, the virus will enter your computer without you installing it. Here are some possible sources

1. P2P Software – These networks allow you to share files with other people on the network. However, many people may be sharing infected files or may use false filenames to trick users into installing a virus. This tend to be the main source of viruses for most people.

2. Freeware or Shareware Software – There are many freeware software which you can download on the web which has hidden bugs in it. Sometimes they may have adware in it (creates ads on your computer), but sometimes they can have spyware or viruses in them.

3. Websites – There are certain websites which will transmit the virus to your computer. Try to surf only trusted websites. It is important to always double check before clicking on an unknown link.

The best way to avoid viruses is to avoid the sources above.
The best way to prevent viruses is to use up to date antivirus and antispyware software.
-extracted from http://www.virusremovalguru.com

gah... my anti-virus wasn't up to date... sometimes you just wished you could have a mac.
it so free from viruses
have you ever wondered why the viruses are only for pc users?
some say mac is way high level then pc
while another group of people says the virus writers are the anti-virus writers
so when they send out virus, they can sell the aniti-virus programme to destory it...
haha... and am glad that i have moved on from AVG to Avest! =)

Cherry Blossom

2010-03-25T01:57:00.008+11:00

The cherry blossom (桜, sakura) is the national flower of Japan. It is probably most beloved flower among the Japanese. The blooming of cherry blossoms signifies not only the arrival of spring but the beginning of the new academic year for schools (Japanese school year starts in April) and of the new fiscal year for businesses. The cherry blossoms are symbols of a bright future. Also, their delicacy suggests purity, transience, melancholy and has poetic appeal.

During this period, the weather forecasts include reports on the advance of sakura zensen (桜前線, sakura front) as the blossoms sweep north. As the trees begin to bloom, the Japanese participate in hanami (花見, flower viewing). People gather under the trees, eat picnic lunches, drink sake, view the cherry blossom flowers and have a great time. In cities, viewing cherry blossoms in the evening (夜桜, yozakura) is also popular. Against the dark sky, the cherry blossoms in full bloom are especially beautiful.

However, there is also a dark side. The Japanese cherry blossoms open all at once and seldom last more than a week. From the way they quickly and gracefully fall, they were used by militarism to beautify the death of the suicide units. To samurai in the ancient times or soldiers during World Wars there was no greater glory than dying on the battlefield like scattered cherry blossoms.

Sakura-yu is a tea-like drink made by steeping a salt-preserved cherry blossom in hot water. It is often served at wedding and other auspicious occasions. Sakura-mochi is a dumpling containing sweet bean paste wrapped in a salt-preserved cherry-tree leaf.

A sakura also means a shill who raves about his mock purchase. Originally referring to people who were admitted to watch plays for free. The word came about because cherry blossoms are free for viewing.

The cherry blossom is synonymous with the word "flower (花, hana)". Hana yori dango (花より団子, dumplings over flowers) is a proverb that expresses the practical is preferred over the aesthetic. In hanami, people often seem to be more interested in eating foods or drinking alcohol than appreciating the beauty of the flowers. Click here to learn more expressions including flowers.

and many have witnessed. what more do i need to say? i aint alone in ESCLAVAGE!
oh alright, they aint the devil... but! they sure did scar their interns and workers who left.
i was telling a lecturer about wanting to stay cause i am learning... ... ... i think.
learning. on. your. own. from. the. internet. and. not. from. your. above. consider?
i did learn a bit when i help in some design and when i aint scripting.
as 20% of the manpower there have some substance, can. teach.
but the other 20% of the manpower make everything so. awful.
and. it. really. sucks. when. the. person. is. around. its. like. oh. NO! shit. happens.
i was just thinking, like naruto training, this is my training ground, just 忍！
but my lecturer said, everywhere i go i would definitely learn something!
20% of the manpower made the whole office stinks. literally and figuratively!
oh well, i should stop telling horror stories that the 20% of the manpower created.
i. should. stop. ranting. about. bad. things.

well, things are better now, got to get the rest i eagerly looked forward.
had the chance to catch up and do the. normal. stuff.
meet friends. go school. talk to people. watch shows.

i have no idea why. but. i. liked. the. full. stop. sentences.
hahahaha... recently i had been into novels. after. novels. [thats where i found full stops cool!]
shows. after. shows. movies. after. movies! and my happy level is pretty up.
after traumatic experiences, yup, things are sure getting brighter each day.

recently i learn a bit in pimping for people... haha... sounds awful.
but its kinda fun being agent for people by meeting client for people.
i like people. who doesnt? *giving a Trudy grin*
well, freelancing is kinda tough, but when people find you to give you jobs.
hey, thats cool! thank God for friends.

i need to upgrade my portfolio. and. mutating-scripts-power.
soon. i. hope. since i am free now... yup, why not?
hmmm but there are the finance thingi... hmmm...
pretty tough now, thanks to my previous worst-ever-paying-job and esclavge-hours.
i had little in my bank... and i aint going back to freeloading on ma and pa...
it. just. aint. right. [sounds cool-er when everything is one syllabus]

oh wells, should. be. going. to. Z. now.
btw, if you have yet to watch Leverage. Go. Watch. Now!

signing. off. with. full. stops. =)

MERRY CHRISTMAS! enjoy while we can!...
oh merde? juste de vouloir quitter cette chose qui nous forcent à prendre congé et nous demandent de faire le travail libre. ESCLAVAGE.

oh tumult~!

2009-11-15T06:22:00.002+11:00

lost ATM card, no cash, HP no Batt, Family asleep and not sure is there a last bus home...
that's an experience not to missed!

Finally! an Update!

2009-10-31T03:38:00.002+11:00

tired...
pretty much that... and finally had a feeling to rant a tat bit
it has been forever since i really have a time like in secondary school
sitting in front of the com all day long... =P

i was just thinking... how bless we are when we were younger, having so much free time... playing and qurelling with our sibiling, watsing time one phone, television and the latest books...finding ways to gain freedom, even going downstairs would be a joy... or just playing x-man, or he man woth kor kor... those were the times of stres-free life...

when did everything has to be so rush?
rush to make to the next million
rush to get the latest DS lite
rush to make ends meet
rush rush rush...

there comes a time when too much rushing and thinking and stressing give you a huge migraine...
and... starts to draw things like boats and planes...

oh wells, dunno what i am writting...
cant wait to meet kor kor again soon!! =D
-peaceout

i need to SAVE!

2009-09-23T04:08:00.006+10:00

not save the earth... but save $$
had been spending and spending like water! argh!!!
but have to... its things like bills for phone repair... etc etc...

oh yar!my phone repairs went up to $$139.10
*pinch my pockets*
this is kinda awful, esp when pay isnt coming in yet...
living on very little nowadays...

and talking about pay... reminds me...
i changed job!!
whoots!~
currently working at elzeno!
its a really cool company... learnin much everyday...
alrights, its not really a cool company, cause its like a dream company
a place where i can learn, people there is nice, Thia joinin me soon, learning a bunch of stuffs everyday... and many other cool things happening! isnt that just cool-some? =P

and oh! Sun's new song is sooo Tim Burton! check it out sio!

alrights need to work tml
going to sleep... Zzzz...

It Is FINISHed!

2009-08-22T20:14:00.006+10:00

Yup! the crunch time is over!!!!
Whoot~!

it was a period of trials and testing man!
peoples i really wanna thank throughout this whole thing...

Thank Batman in the Batcave...ESPECIALLY!!
hahaha... for spending time in looking through my work at the batcave and whenever he visited Mary Beth. thanks for the many advices and teaching on how i should go about doing the right research... haha...

these are the people i need to thank for giving constructive comments and encouragements =D
Batman
Mary Beth
Steph
Tia Tia
Zhi Hao
Ah Boy
David
James
Javian
Wei Ren
Phoebe
Joanne
Selena

and for scripting...
Bryan Yeo [haha... this is a famous super good scripter!]
Ah Zheng

for helping me in the crucial moments...
Mary Beth
Wei Ren
Phoebe
Bryan yeo
Ah Zheng

for being there and being super supportive of me...
Mom
Joanne
Selena

and well... thank God for Holy Spirit!!
if not... i would have wasted my time like i have wasted my time in O'Levels on retaking my Chinese when it has already passed. so i could have more focus in the last mins on the more important stuffs...
also for wisdom, understanding, efficiency and helping me to stay awake... etc etc...

// and now for future enhancement:
1. Debug
2. Optimize
3. Add more works [illustrations etc etc]

and this is what we should feel after going through portfolio:
the feeling of being fired up to do more, to do better to have continuous growth in works [quality and quantity!]

i felt that this time my Portfolio was better more... 见得人!
and i get to have a sense of Peace after presentation
and i know that i know this hurdle i will be able to pass through!
Thank GOD!

Encouraged

2009-01-05T04:06:00.003+11:00

Big thanks to Lisa... cause she will always be there to send encouraging mails
and today i needed some encouragements so i got a very simple yet powerful message

Isaiah 43: 2, 4 (NIV)

2 When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.

4 Since you are precious and honored in my sight,
and because I love you...

just the thought that i am no t alone
and i am doing things not by my own might
it brings comforts...

and since i aint the only one having dark times...
i hope this would encourage you too!
=) cheerios!

Happy 2009!

2009-01-04T02:36:00.000+11:00

a year of change i would say!

[here's a pict of part of my new cg! ]

but 2009 would be my best year yet!

you know the old saying?
"when the going gets tough, the tough gets going"
and this chinese saying?
"吃的苦中苦，方为人上人。"
well... as we do need to go through life,
we need to go up the highest mountain and down the lowest valley
the valleys are not all so bad if we just keep on walking =)

Silence

2008-09-30T01:24:00.002+10:00

Well, today had been a pretty Silent Day for me...
i didnt talk...
and that makes me wanna learn some sign language
cause whenever i wanna put a message across, i must write or the ppl must guess...
or i gotta somehow whisper
man! its like playing charade with everyone!
its pretty fun to a certain extend...
[haha... social studies]
well, one thing i have learnt
how to allow the deafening silence to reign
silence can actually be loud...
in a way, 'cause of the things that happened,
i am glad i couldnt talked today...

i so wanted to fill in the silence at many times of the day
but all i could do is listen to the silence
i could hear what i wanted to say but didnt
all i could just hear was silence
other times i hear others and their diff view...
oh, i so miss my voice
man! that sound so narcistic~!
but i missed talking, singing and laughing out...
silent wave to say good night!

he happened to WANT a scarf, but forgot to bring his wallet along!
so we celebrated with him after service
well, after that we went to Swensen for a Birthday lunch
well, little did he expected another birthday cake!
well its from his mom, and that surprises him even more!

2008-09-29T00:36:00.002+10:00

[well i am just a normal human who have ups and downs.]
cause of the many things that happened...
BUT
i am really thankful for ppl in W433 like Santy and Eileen!
[not to forget people like Samuel, Lester, Loewe and friends who i would sa all poped out... haha!]
we spent a good afternoon till night together!

cause i like to have people around me, i like company =)

we sorta played charade all the way
and we talked about many things

As the going get tough, the Tough gets going!

a small prayer

2008-09-12T16:46:00.002+10:00

currently,
at the things that happened of late, which i cant really share...
all i can say is that, this little prayer,
sent from a teacher really encouraged me... a lot...

"God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed,
courage to change the things that should be changed,
and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other."

so... gotta pray for grace, courage and wisdom!
Trudy! 加油！加油！加油！
haha
often they say that we are our own cheerleaders... haha...

What seeds are you sowing today?

2008-08-21T20:26:00.002+10:00

everyday
whether you know it or not
you are sowing seeds into another person's life
sowing seeds into your own life
sowing seeds into investing

you maybe a mom who invest in your kids
or a student sowing seeds of hardwork and study
or good friend who sow life into the people ard you
or even sow seeds of lies to break the best of friends

its just dawn upon me and got me thinking recently
i went running

yup! you read correctly
Trudy went running

so i had some Quiet Time...
its good

i get to see things differently
i get to perspire the stress toxic out

but i got a seed in my mind
that really got me thinking!
what seeds am i sowing?

an apple seed can produce a durian
nor can i sow grapes and expect to harvest mango
though both are really yummy

i was just thinking
sometimes, are we even sowing anything?
its like we sometimes become excuse-givers
an decide to wait for the right time to sow seeds
like study
like packing your room

well, a wise man once said...
there's no perfect time to sow seeds
if u look at a hardworking farmer
he dont wait for the clouds and stars to align
he just sow seeds when its the period to

its brings me to the sowing period
it like here is the sowing period
if u missed it
you missed it

and even though wheat and weeds have similar looking seeds
their harvest is entirely different
so by harvest time
you can seed what seeds are you sowing

even if someone is trying to ruin your crops
by putting in weeds among your wheat
during harvest time
we can see
we will know

seed> time> harvest

hmmmmm...
fruit for thought
hahaha...
sounds like ijust posted a parable
haha...

oh and i found another wise man saying...
just thought its cool...

[he who is double-minded,
is unstable in all his ways...]

how true...

Panick attack!

To Where You Are

Don't Give Up, You Are Loved

The Prayer - Celine Dion and Josh Groban

2008-06-19T17:24:00.000+10:00

though this was post sometime ago in 二姐's blog,
but its something nice i would like to share too!

The Prayer
I pray you'll be our eyes, and watch us where we go,
And help us to be wise, in times when we don't know
Let this be our prayer, as we go our way
Lead us to a place, guide us with your grace
To a place where we'll be safe...

La luce che tu dai
I pray we'll find your light
Nel cuore resterà
And hold it in our hearts
A ricordarci che
When stars go out each night
L'eterna stella sei

Nella mia preghiera
Let this be our prayer
Quanta fede c'è

When shadows fill our day
Lead us to a place
Guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

Sognamo un mondo senza più violenza
Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
Ognuno di la mano al suo vicino
Simbolo di pace e di fraternità

La forza che ci dai
We ask that life be kind

E' il desiderio che
And watch us from above

Ognuno trovi amor
We hope each soul will find

Intorno e dentro a sé
Another soul to love

Let this be our prayer
Let this be our prayer

Just like every child
Just like every child

Needs to find a place, guide us with your grace
Give us faith so we'll be safe

E' la fede che
Hai acceso in noi
Sento che ci salverà

Dungeons and Dragons!

2008-06-17T01:59:00.001+10:00

cool! today i went to school to play dnd with the...
DM, 2 cleric, a warrior, and a wizard!
haha... and i am a rouge!
a human rouge call Gen...
i named it on my own cause my character sheet is a guy version of human rouge!
its pretty fun! we go through doors, to places, fighting monsters, and trying to survive!

this mission we were on was for a captive, who was supposed to be the Tordec's father...
they first got me to J.A.M.I.E. and got me a stone, while transporting me to a village where the villagers were used to seeing us pop out from nowhere... haha
den Pew came running to us to tell us the mission in urgency, she left without telling us the the way to the captive!
we met a Goblin, named Kat who gave us the map, who also happened to wear the rubric goggles! which can see sth which we cant know... hmmm...
after knowing the short-cut route, we went to stick up things to bring.
and guess what! we didnt bring robes or umbrella so we were hit by hail storm in the dessert.
Thank to the Cleric beside me, i got 1 rope and 1 mirror
we then spot and ran for shelter at for shelter at the HIgh Tower
and its mine first time, and i had so much wisdom in it!
whahahaaha! cause i always roll for wisdom, so DM would always tell us i had heard stories of old... this/ that happened... pretty funny
makes me sound old as i seems to have stories of old
and met some 6 Hob Goblins
whom were in rage cause the warrior forgot about the 2 Hob Goblin's skulls as his shoulder pad -.-
they were enraged when we poke ard their tombs and we fought them after we fought a zombie
oh! and i had the honour to keep the zombie's hair!
hey! raw material for somthing new man!
whahahaha!
oh and i looted some cool stuff in behind some locked doors with traps, and since i am a rouge...
hehehe!
and after that we encounter the Jelliton!
it killed our warrior! and thanks to our wizard's always- accurate- magic- missiles and fire we killed Jelliton! cool eh??
hahaha... but its really fun considering i get to be tallER, and taller then Slimy Zheng!
whahahaha...
oh and after that while saving the warrior, we killed him again, but its okay, we got 2 cleric to save the day!
oh but i got killed, as they were trying to save me from the spider, the E. the cleric gave me a head shot!
the arrow was tied to a string and i was pulled away from the spider!
i cant fight back cause i was paralyzed by fear -.-
but den E the cleric got caught by the spider!
but we saved her! good thing she dont have poison/ acid slime with her!
if not, while falling with the spider she would be unnecessarily damaged!
den we have a moral lesson when they revived me, as i didnt tell them what i fully loot in the other cave... haha
after that we fought the Bugbear!
whahahaha! and i got a translator ring!
whahaha! and i can understand Goblins' language!
we loot so many things today!
we tooks things like the Zombie's hair, Spider poison, skin and web, bandage etcetc.
it was really fun!
and soon when we go level 3, we can have 4th edition character!
Wheeee!
cant wait to continue the adventure!

Camp Phenomena! 2008

2008-06-12T15:44:00.005+10:00

wow!
this year ET Zone's camp Phenomena is really PHENOMENA!
its really totally life-changing, when you go for it all the way!
i mean its like... WOW!
haha... though its tiring and strenuous, esp for my throat
but it was totally worth it!
and this is the entire camp cheer:
leaders: ET YOUTH! ARE YOU READY?
youths: WE'RE GONNA STEP OUT!
leaders: WE CAN'T HEAR WHAT YOU SAY!
youths:WE'RE GONNA STEP OUT!
leaders: TILL THE BREAK OF THE DAY!
youths: WE'RE GONNA STEP OUT! RISE UP! REACH UP!... ALL THE WAY!
all: CAMP PHENOMENA!!!!

from 9-11 of June 2008, i had been in the Group Zebulun!
it sound like ze-ben-len (chi. 日本人； re ben ren; Japanese ppl)
and it also sounded like Zz-bomb!
haha... so our flag was like the japanese flag except the colours and the centre is a bomb!
not bad right? got concept one! haha!...
hahaha... would upload the pict of the flag soon!

and our group was like super mixed!
we had Singaporeans, and Singaporeans that dont look like Singaporeans, China-nationals and Koreans!
haha! pretty cool mixed group ya?
here our group cheer:
Zebulun! Jun be dan na yo?
Jun be dan san you!
(yoo... boom!)
we've got the boom!
we've got the fire!
we've got the guts!
we've got the power!
So listen up Yo!
'Cause this is REAL!
The Beat you're hearing is the Zebulun tone!
So Gear up and fight!
And make this Right!
'Cause we're gonna win this race tonight!
tick tick tick tick tick~*whistle peep!* BOOM!

[Jun be dan na yo-korean. Are you ready? Jun be dan san yo-korean. I'm READY!]

[and actually after the tone you were suppose to here us sing a zebulun tone in the elmo tune, but we got that off... haha! if it was inside i thinki would laugh whenever i do it! haha]

oh and this is the purpur house team cheer!
purpur house is made up of Reuben and Zebulun!
(according to the powerpuff girls theme song!)

Reuben: purple is the our favorite colour
purple is the strongest house here
Jesus is our Lord and Saviour
Jesus Christ save the day~

Zebulun: fighting time
trying to save the lost
we made it just in time
the purple power~
[x2]

creative right? my team/ house mates! love their innovative ideas!

haha... and the whole camp really train me up spiritually and physically!
with all the sessions and being ard ppl who are on fire and in-love with God is totally different!
and its a time that we can really rise up to the occasion!
to lead in games, to lead in praise and worship, as a guitarist, to preach, to give offering message...
wow! what a way to train and rise up!
i was really glad for the opportunity to play guitar.
its so long since i prayed for this opportunity!
not only must i be spiritually ready, i must be physically ready!
and in this camp, my dormitory was on level 4!
so when ever someone needed sth from me or when i need to take things for my group, its on level 4!!!!
(turn to your neighbors on your left and right and say "its level 4!")
and the toilets are on level 3 and 1!
oh my! i really train my legs' muscles !
what a way to go! i really feel more fit now then ever!

you know, my idea of camp has changed a lot since poly year 1
thanks to the way they have the orientation camp that doesnt allow sleep over
so it aint as fun...
but now... camp to me was so much more fun than ever!
whahaha!
and i found out how much i rely on so much things at home!
like hot water, toilet to be on the same floor as my room, my bed and simple things like the lift!
now i really learn to appreciate things... simple things for the matter.
really missed the camp
though i have a sexy voice already, but i dont mind another 1 or 2 days more of camp!

hmmm... 2008 really,... a year of change!

126th day

2008-05-06T01:48:00.000+10:00

this is from dictionary.com

enjoy

This is the 126th day of the year, with 240 days remaining in 2008.

Fact of the Day: particleboard

Particleboard, also called chipboard, fiberboard, and flakeboard, is a composition board made of very small pieces of wood bonded together. It is very hard, dense, heavy material made of reconstituted wood particles. It is available in various thicknesses -- from 3/8" to 3/4" and 4 feet wide by 8, 10, and 12 feet long. Particleboard is also available at some lumber yards precut as shelving (8, 10, 12 inches wide), sometimes with plastic laminate already on it. Particleboard costs less than half of what plywood costs and can be very good material if used for the right project. It is particularly good for kitchen countertops and underlayment. It does not warp.

Holidays

Feast day of St. Hydroc, St. Hilary of Arles, St. Hilary of Galeata, St. Angelo, St. Jutta, St. Avertinus, and St. Mauruntius.
Japan: Japanese Boys' Festival.
Japan: Children's Day or Kodomo no hi.
Mexico: Cinco de Mayo.
Netherlands: Liberation Day.
South Korea: Children's Day.
Ethiopia: Patriots Victory Day.
Thailand: Coronation Day.

Belated PeiWen's Birthday!

2008-04-22T14:39:00.006+10:00

hey hey!
today Shue and me was celebrating Pei Wen's Birthday!
[sorry PeiWen for forgetting your birthday las year!
we put more than 2 years of prezzie together and book you for 2 days to redeem ourselves =) ]
well i am glad to meet up with them again!
Shue and Wens has became adult-ish after going JC and going into Uni and currently working
its seem as though much things have changed, but glad that they are still the nice friends i know in WSS
oh well,
here's a slow shutter image of me and Wens before going into the train...

[Wens! i choose this cause, u looked most-awake here =) ]

Theodora's Birthday

2008-04-22T01:52:00.005+10:00

Yesterday was Theodora's Birthday!

here's a pict of her and a few of us, cause we didnt take a pict before we go off...
here's the biggest amount of ppl, together in the pict, that i have...

so we booked her today to celebrate! hahaha...
we gave her a ~~Pandora's Box~~ Theodora's box...
if u gave birth to twins, naming one Theodora and the other Pandora
Theodora would be the nice twin sis, while the other, Pandora is the evil twin sis!
hahaha... anyway really have fun with her today!
first we had dinner at AMK HUB's New York New York's... opp restaurant...
hahaha... cant rmb the restaurant's name...
its like some restaurant that is like HK Cafe
the service there is not bad, food is not bad too!
i have sliced fish hor fan, it have a thums up on the menu!
though it seems to have a pale colour, and its not very colourful...
BUT! its taste GREAT! =)
Then we went to Hippos!
i played 2 games with her
first was the game about naming the facts...
haha... it was quite fun... though because of the slow process, its boring towards the end...
but the fun part about it, we get to name things and compare with each other!
it was funny see how others see things differently
and i think my knowledge on athletes is bad!
when naming them i could only think: Micheal Jordan and David Beckem
Wanted to name the Sg PR who played in our SG Females Tennis and won victoriously... but kinda forgot her name! man! felt bad... my GK on sports isnt very good... gotta work on that!
[sidetrack: have been reading some good books, one of them is called Natasha's Will
its about the time in Russia when Communist is taking over, Killing Dutch and making Dutchess flee... its a sad story of a girl, Natasha, whom you will see portray as a decease, a young generous kind-hearted princess, brave girl and a loving god-grandma. its a great book, go read it! i give it 2 thumbs up
its like the book by Victoria Hanley(my fave Author), called The Seer and the Sword.
the book Natasha's will brought the essence of the book The Seer and the Sword out into reality]
after that we wanted to play taboo...
but end up we played Dirty Minds
it require a simple innocent mind to own the game! hahahaha
we paired up to play, Bogard and Jason, Cynthia and Wesley, JingLong and Daryl, and lastly, Theo and me =)
it was really funny!
whatever they ask, we answer mostly correct and the rest were like...
"err... what's that...?"
hahahaha!
eg.
Bubblegum
I go in hard
I come out soft
You can blow in my wad.

Dust
Ladies like to get me off

man! what was i thinking?
on a lighter note... Daryl's "WHEEeeeeeee!"
is really getting on Futurama!
after forgoing the thoughts of Avatar s3 and s4
i went on to Futurama
it reminded me of Simpson and Family Guy put together
my fav character?
the "funniest"... Dr Z.[the crab doctor...dunno how to spell his name]
and Fry's uncle... now what's his name?...
and not to forget! LeeLa! the power girl!

I missed W433 CGM!!!

2008-04-12T02:32:00.001+10:00

yep you heard me!
i hadnt been going for my own cgm for a long time... continuously
was going for make up cgm...

wanna know the reason why?
thats because if you are not in ur cgm, you are not there to build presence together during P&W
and if you are not there, the atmosphere have sth missing!
... and thats you!

F.I.R. - 三个心愿

2008-03-14T19:13:00.002+11:00

沁：我喜欢妳的眼神温柔又危险
　　　请不要戴上眼镜我会看不见
　　　想要张开双手把妳宝贝
　　　想和妳天天见面想带妳环游世界

飞：我喜欢你爱逞强笨笨的笑脸
　　　在心中抬头挺胸坚定的信念
　　　这个辽阔世界不够完美
　　　但有了你在我身边什麽都很OK

合：第一个心愿为你把幸福堆积
　　　天涯到海角头髮到呼吸
　　　下一个心愿给你最好的自己
　　　再许个心愿我的爱把你佔领

沁：为什麽为了小事就要掉眼泪
　　　好像有太多的事只能自己揹
　　　其实只要你说一句OK
　　　现在就立刻马上变成你的Superman

飞：这世上最重要的不只是誓言
　　　只要你常常记得亲亲我的脸
　　　我会永远记得这个今天
　　　还有很久的那一天我也要有你陪
