Do As Infinity

如煙

有沒有那麼一種永遠　永遠不改變
擁抱過的美麗都　再也不破碎
讓險峻歲月不能在臉上撒野　讓生離和死別都遙遠
有誰能聽見.

有沒有那麼一滴眼淚　能洗掉後悔　
化成大雨降落在　回不去的街
再給我一次機會　將故事改寫　
或欠了他一生的　一句抱歉

有沒有那麼一個世界　永遠不天黑　
星星太陽萬物都　聽我的指揮
月亮不忙著圓缺　春天不走遠　
樹梢緊緊擁抱著樹葉　有誰能聽見

有沒有那麼一張書籤　停止那一天　
最單純的笑臉和　最美那一年
書包裡面裝滿了蛋糕和汽水　
雙眼只有無猜和無邪　讓我們無法無天

有沒有那麼一個明天　重頭活一遍　
讓我再次感受曾　揮霍的昨天
無論生存或生活　我都不浪費　不讓故事這麼的後悔

Waiting

2010-10-08T23:33:00.003+08:00

Why am i always waiting? Sometimes its a process i do not really like. Many are frustrating and some unbearable. Tired... really tired of waiting. What would it be? I really want to know. No wonder God say patience (longsuffering) is a fruit of the spirit. Its really suffering "long" in a wait!

Been Long...

2010-10-04T23:49:00.003+08:00

Yesterday we had overnight prayer meeting and the presence of God was awesome. And today a few of us decide to go JB to chill. It was fantastic.

Went to this small shop, if i can remember clearly, its call "sing kee" for JB local food. Pst was so excited when he talk to Vivien about it in his car. Oh, something to add on is that Pst Ken was a great driver. Fast, swift and accurate. He drove super near to alot of vehicles and his judgement of car was awesome... he can sms with is blackberry somemore while he is driving! Kekeke.....

So the 5 of us (Pst Ken, vien, ping, ling and me) went for authentic thai massage at city square. The ladies shared a room while me and pst shared another. This thai massage was really AUTHENTIC! It it was quite cheap as well compared to singapore. Their masseuse are all thais and their skills was superb. Pst mention he has been here for a few times and their standard of service is always maintained at a high level. Pst feel asleep during the massage while i was kinda not use to it so was quite awake.

Pst had to leave to teach bible study back in SG... so gotta leave right after. The rest of us went for dinner at this restoran under the tree... haha... to eat their "cizar"... nice nice. =)

Yay! I've got my 1st album of Do As Infinity after they are back in Action! I am so happy, but the thing is that it cost me $62.95 for this album. Its a imported album, as it is "Made in Japan"... but i bought it nevertheless or else it would be swept off the shop.

Wondering when are they going to have make their albums that is for export to south east asia just like last time, so that i could purchase it like other CD prices that is not that EXPENSIVE! I guess i would not care for now... cuz i am a die-hard fan of Do As Infinity. Love their music!

Yet again...

2009-09-23T21:46:00.003+08:00

Bad day, bad moments, bad memories. Just too tired and dun feel like talking. Just feel like "deleting" this day away.

Words. Yet again cannot fully expresses.

Defense. Yet again only builds walls.

Thoughts. Yet again not shared.

Openness. Yet again without understand.

Apology. Yet again required heartfelt sincerity.

Just don't ask....

Ipoh Missions

2009-09-16T02:15:00.003+08:00

This is really a great experience for me. The team have been great and together we forged great friendship with one another. Pastor Lian, his family and workers have been most awesome. Greatly touched by their hospitality and openness.

I can see so much potential of what God wants to do when there is such simple faith in them. When one man takes a step of faith, God can work miracle for him. Also, i am impressed by their praise and worship team all over... how did they managed to do that when they started about only half a year ago?! If not for God's wisdom and anointing, how is that made possible?!

It brings me to remembrance of Old Hollywood Days where the people are so open and willing... Everyone plays a part in building the house of God... When everyone builds up, the kingdom advances. Willingness is the key to Greatness just like wad Jesus mentioned, those who are humble will be exalted.

I believe God is gonna blessed them mighty...

Shiroi Haru

2009-06-25T03:18:00.006+08:00

Synopsis

Former yakuza Haruo is finally released from prison after completing his sentence. With nine years worth of prison gratuities in hand, he stops at a restaurant to enjoy a good meal, but all of his money ends up being stolen. With nothing left, he spends the night at a net cafe, and he manages to look up his old friend from his yakuza days. When Haruo visits the next day, he learns that his old girlfriend Mariko was living with another man, but later died of illness. Haruo, who had committed murder 9 years earlier to earn the money for Mariko's medical treatment, is shocked and angered. He decides to track down that other man, who runs a bakery with his wife and daughter Sachi. Haruo later runs into Sachi at the park, but he has yet to find out the truth about her.

Comment

This is really a nice drama from the beginning until the end. Every episode is touching and Abe Hiroshi really did a great job in this drama. Every emotions of a former yakuza of wretchedness, repentance, forgiveness and the love of a father is expressed from Abe's acting skills. Although the story-line is quite typical, but still it touches the heart of those who watched it. If you have the time, this is one of great drama you won't wanna miss especially you are a jap-drama addict!

Long Vacation

2009-05-18T21:55:00.005+08:00

Just came back from a great vacation. It was really a good 3 weeks long break! Went to Australia and managed to conquered 4 main cities, Brisbane, Sydney, Canberra and Melbourne. It was a road trip and Seth and I drove a total of more 3000 km. Of course we got the GPS navigation system, after the STRONG recommendation of Soooophiiiieee Wong Sum Yhee!!! Thanks sophie!!! =), if not we really will get lost. Especially when we need to search a street in a big city.. its almost impossible without it.

Both of us caught some major events like ANZAC day, Darling Harbour's 21st Birthday Celebration. Also, its such a awesome weather in australia especially during my last week stay at melbourne. Its autumn now, so the weather is neither freezing cold or scorching hot.

Okie... enough of the talking, rest up... pictures!!! I'll try to post more pictures if i got time...

蔡依林 - 妥協

2009-04-08T22:49:00.003+08:00

This is a nice song... because the song its written by 阿沁! He is really good, where this one man after impacted by God got more talented! When i hear this song, i really feel goosebumps... even though its a sad song.

蔡依林 - 妥協
作詞: Wonderful
作曲: 阿沁

你總愛編織謊言
我負責配合表演
所有改變
只為了進入你的世界
這情節重覆了一百遍
才發現是你的心太野

你劃定楚河漢界
我不能輕易犯規
所有時間
都是先給了你優先權
不自覺愛到不敢冒險
成了你的傀儡一年兩年
才看見我有多狼狽

愛到妥協到頭來還是無解
綁著你不讓你飛
歷史不斷重演
我好累

愛到妥協也無法將故事再重寫
你已下最後通牒我躲在我的世界

你劃定楚河漢界
我不能輕易犯規
所有時間
都是先給了你優先權
不自覺愛到不敢冒險
成了你的傀儡一年兩年
才看見我有多狼狽

愛到妥協到頭來還是無解
綁著你不讓你飛
歷史不斷重演
我好累

愛到妥協也無法將故事再重寫
你已下最後通牒我躲在我的世界

你只是害怕一個人睡
我不想再為你掉淚
我了解不會變不再徘徊
開始自己的明天

愛到妥協到頭來還是無解
綁著你不讓你飛
歷史不斷重演
我好累

愛到妥協也無法將故事再重寫
你已下最後通牒我躲在我的世界

HATE Ugly Singapore Drivers!

2009-03-20T23:13:00.006+08:00

One day when i could not take it any longer, i will really step out of my vehicle to give a punch right at the face of any driver who tried to piss me off! I am really trying to be as "Christian" as i could when come to driving... but seriously, why are there so many drivers in Singapore that are so arrogant as if the whole road belongs to them?! It's a SHAME to them! I remembered when i was young, when we have this "courtesy" campaign in singapore.. its so cool! But what happen to that cute lion figurine with a big wide smile?!

Below are some of the nasty experiences after my one year on the road almost everyday!

1) Alot of drivers never signal their intention now and just switch lanes! This got worse especially after the first ever Singapore Grand Prix event that was held. Now everyone thinks they are Lewis Hamilton?! I think they are Hamsters more then hamilton! Give me a break! You guys are just driving some kuku road cars! You are just a darn road hazard when u don't signal!

2) There was this young punk who want to enter into the main road and he drove way past the "give way" line and i was in the right of way. So to prevent an accident, i kindly flashed my lights twice to warn him to stop. He did stop and give way after one-third of his vehicle was already beyond the line ..... but to my unexpected HORROR, he sped up after me and followed behind me to flashed his lights FIVE times to irritate me!

3) It was red light where i stop beside this hyundai "TRAJET" that was on my right where both our vehicles are the first row of cars. When the lights turned green, i step on my accelerator and suddenly this hyundai sped up and one third of his vehicle was beside me when he wanted to cut into my lane! He really think that his vehicle is a JET?! I HORNED at him and slow down my vehicle immediately and i almost got into an accident! But that's not it!!! Guess what?! I sped up and find out who this irresponsible driver was... and guess wad? His wife who was beside him in her 40s... saw me angry and she still made irritating and funny faces to piss me off! She think that she is still a 18 year old cute beauty where i would laugh at her lameness?! To tell u the truth... i would rather look at a piece of S with a HIT then looking at her sagging chin face! Feel like giving her one tight slap!

4) Alot of drivers nowadays like to "ZHENG" their cars... i am fine with that... but please.... dun make your headlamps like the streetlights for the F1 racing using 3000 lux compared to the 100 lux for streetlights! It is just too blinding for the other drivers! Are the traffic police doing anything to them to enhance safety on the roads? Just like my good friend Jiaheng said... i should install RALLY CARS LAMP with 6 SPOTLIGHTS to make them know what's the GLORY OF GOD!

5) Taxi DriverS! Another source of bitterness... i met all this incidents with cab drivers.... stop right before an expressway entrance to pick up passengers, stop right after an expressway exit to alight passengers, stop unexpected... Worst case incident: I met this taxi driver at my carpark (having alot of upgrading works where the vehicles parked one lane so vehicles can only travel another lane). So he stopped his car to alight his passenger blocking up the way where i came in opposite direction. So, i waited patiently for him to alight his passenger so that he will reverse his car to let me pass thru... GUESS WAD?! After i waited patiently without horning, he looked at me and just using his sign language to tell me to reverse for his vehicle to pass through! HE WASTED MY DaRN TIME and STILL have the CHeEkS to tell me TO REveRSe!? If not for the holy spirit inside of me to cool me down and reverse for him... i will just land my fist at his face or just wait there wasting his time for him to reverse giving him an irritating look since i am not in a hurry to "earn" more money.

There are still whole lotsa stories to write about... but guess i could not finish... sigh.... please, for goodness sake... can the drivers have a little bit more courtesy and try a little kindness? Stop throwing the "face" of singapore... I LOVE my Country... so could those ugly drivers dun mess it up?

*Disclaimer: I know there are good drivers still around... but i guess they are just as irritated as me for the above mentioned drivers! Not ALL drivers are like that... so i used words like "alot", "many"...

Okuribito

2009-03-17T02:31:00.004+08:00

Another nice show that i've watched so far. This time round my dear have chosen a good film (wahaha, out of so many weird ones she have chosen). So give her a round of applause would you! =)

Anyway, this movie won the Oscar for the Best Foreign Language Film of the Year (2009) Japan. So this movie is really good and definitely value for money because of its quality.

Warning! (If u wanna watch this movie, pls do not read below! *contains spoilers!)

Being an professional for funeral services is definitely an unglamorous job that no one wants to pick up the trade. This movie portrays that a mortician who shows professionalism is the best respect that one can show to the deceased family. In this movie, it shows the beauty of the trade (maybe u would wonder if there is any beauty to it?!) and the ugly side of it (where i believe u will know more of the ugly side of this trade).

Pastor Kong shared during his series of God for Ancient Chinese about Emperor Kang Xi mention to the missionaries that Chinese honor the dead is not a form of idolatry where the missionaries being too religious does not take in thus they missed a great chance to win China for Jesus. After watching the show, i agreed that why would there be sin in honoring the dead? By honoring the dead, it's the best respect, comfort and love that one could show to those closest to the deceased.

Life and its reality where we should really cherish those who are alive and love them. Death is not the final destination for us... its only the beginning, but for those who are alive should live life to the fullest!

Oh, by the way, Ryoko Hirosue acted in this movie. Although my dear says she looks old already but i beg to differ. I feel that she is still very pretty and sweet... but of course... my dear is sweeter la... wahaha

Blackberry Bold

2009-03-11T22:57:00.007+08:00

Finally, i got myself a "bold" phone so my "da ge da" got to stay at home to rot... because my dear says it's too big for her to use... mmm, anyone wants a e90 communicator? i sell cheap cheap la... er... say SGD$650? Hee... only use for less then 1 year, good condition,... mmm bought on 14 August 2008... so it's 7 months to be exact... i never really fully utilize it so feel kinda "sorry" for it... lolx...

But i think this blackberry will be must better as i will use it to PIN all the CHC staff and also i have signed up unlimited internet usage so definitely it will be of better use.

So e90... opening bid at SGD$650.... any bidder? Highest bid wins! =)

Galileo - Suspect X

2009-03-06T01:03:00.003+08:00

"Yogisha X no Kenshin" is one of the BEST MOVIE i have watch so far. Of course i have been chasing all the drama serials even before this movie screened, so therefore its a must watch to me. Of course i like both Masaharu Fukuyama (Detective Galileo) and Kou Shibasaki (Police Dectective) who are the main actor and actress, but what really impresses me was Shinichi Tsutsumi who played the Genius Mathematician. His acting skills in this movie is a 10/10!!! For those who dunno him, he was the same guy who acted in "Yamato Nadeshiko" (大和撫子).

Although this movie not the usual "Galileo" drama where it emphasis on physics, but because of plot of the movie, its really awesome. This movie a blend of murder mystery and love that being displayed makes this movie interesting. Of course the artistes in this movie is really fascinating. So i will recommend all to watch this movie while it is still available in the cinema!!!

2009-02-25T00:24:00.002+08:00

对酒当歌，人生几何？
譬如朝露，去日苦多。
慨当以慷，忧思难忘。
何以解忧，唯有杜康。
青青子衿，悠悠我心。
但为君故，沉吟至今。
呦呦鹿鸣，食野之苹。
我有嘉宾，鼓瑟吹笙。
明明如月，何时可掇。
忧从中来，不可断绝。
越陌度阡，枉用相存。
契阔谈宴，心念旧恩。
月明星稀，乌鹊南飞。
绕树三匝，何枝可依？
山不厌高，海不厌深。
周公吐哺，天下归心。

Updates

2009-02-22T01:34:00.003+08:00

Just some quick updates about my life....

1) Preparing for expo shift later. Although done it plenty of times, but still feel stress as this time i am going in as a contractor identity.

2) My aunt just passed away... it's really sad cuz her both sons, who are my cousins, are very dear to my heart. I felt the pain in their heart and it's really an experience that one would wish they never experience.

3) I've got a chance to get my TOMIKO VAN CDS!!! My best friend's girlfriend happened to be a air stewardess is flying to japan today!!! Hopefully she will be able to find it and get them for me... God please help her to find!!!

4) Have been keeping fit by exercising regularly and jogging frequently. And of course i have my dear running together with me... she have been so sweet to me =) By her encouragement and support, i believe i can look even better then the time (5-6 years back), when i was slim and fit!

5) Hopefully will be able to go JB this coming monday... hopefully the expo shift will be smooth.

That's all for now... signing off...

1st ICT Accomplished!

2009-02-14T02:12:00.002+08:00

I have so much to say about my 1st ICT, but yet i just wanna point out one thing that causes me great discomfort...

So the story begins where I was really excited to go back for my first in camp... although the food was not really fantastic, route march was tiring, almost drop dead for the ippt run and held appointments for the training exercises outfield... all was still fine except....

I came back from outfield exercise, didn't get a chance to sleep during the exercise and i've got to attend a stupid commanders debrief which i feel it should not even involve me! What's worse is that the content of the meeting was really !@#%#@$^#$%^@%... It made me felt that the full time high ranks officers does not really understand how we "civilians" who have a work outside feels. They came up with plans which requires longer in-camps for the NS commanders. Of course, the NS man might not be so well trained as during our active days as we lost touch of most things, but that does not gives them the reason to make us come back to ICT longer!

I've heard from my army mate that one of the guy came back from reservist and got fired by the boss even it's an "official" reason. Especially during this time where the economy is not doing very well, i guess all bosses need their staff to work real hard. Sigh, after 2 weeks of ICT, work is piling up and it seems endless. Also EXPO shift is next week... siong sia... but i thank God for the opportunity to help in the EXPO shift. =)

ICT

2009-02-02T01:48:00.004+08:00

Today, the 2nd of Feb is my ICT (In-camp training) that will last for 2 weeks. I am excited to go because this round i am more prepared then the previous. It was due to my business that caused me to defer the last round. I have prepared more than enough things that i can almost start my army life in camp all over again. LoLx... i tot most guys will curse and swear at the name of ICT!!! !@#!@%@#^%@%^#*&^

But i did not complete my IPPT the last round, so i wondered if i can resolve the issue because the last round, the clerk says she will book for me as my window is closed! But until now, i have yet to receive any phone call from the beloved army... i tot they are suppose to be "swift and effective"? Mmm, i cannot deny if its being operational... but comes to administration... lalala....

I got a new handphone for the ICT that is so OUTDATED, WITHOUT CAMERA, SLOW SMS, NO GAMES, NO MUSIC OR FM, CANNOT EVEN SEND MASS SMS ALMOST GOOD FOR NOTHING! Due to infringement, i could not bring my cool "da ge da" nokia e90 in.... so got to let my communicator phone depreciate at home... sob.

There isn't any entertainment so to speak that i could bring in... i feel like i am going to the monastery to live in solitude. Oh God, please save me... how can i make my time there more fruitful and fun.... i wanna bring books in to read, but people will think i am "siao"...

Haix, better stop writing here and catch my rest before i enter the gates of hades... but thanks be to God as they shall not prevail before me. (Flaky!)

Dead?

2009-01-27T22:03:00.003+08:00

Mmm, not that its dead... just dun feel like updating anything. Sometimes a break is good... but laziness is the root of it all. I have found out the definition of laziness is the inactivity of the practice of virtue... is deadly sin.

So? I'll try to update if i can... i know lots of readers are yearning, drooling and desperate about what i write here. I'm sorry and will repent to update my blog. WAHAHAHAHAHA!

Van.

2008-12-22T14:29:00.005+08:00

Another album of my one and only favorite artiste is out... Alas! Still could not lay my hands on the album... Darn, why is it so unfair that asia no longer distribute her albums so that i could have her albums?! An imported album from japan is so expensive. I have never download her songs online before and have all her original CDs, but i am so sorry tomiko-chan, i could not afford a imported CD.... so so... sigh... i am guilty.

Still, anyone out there going to Japan anytime soon? I NEED her CDs!!! (It's no longer a want... its a NEED!) *sob sob... Ellen went there la, but couldn't find at the DFS shop... aiyo, need to go to those Japanese CD shops la... not DFS CD shop in Japan la... faint...

Anyone wanna respond to the calling of going Japan?! Respond ah!

Friends

2008-11-30T03:05:00.002+08:00

Thanks guys for all the belated gifts... i am really really blessed for all the wonderful gifts. Love the gifts lots not because i am a person who like to receive gifts, but i saw the effort being put in choosing so many nice gifts for me.

I like the cute watch! (cuz its so unique), the shirt! (cuz its really cool), the bag! (can stuff alots things) and the shoes! (cuz i really need a pair!)...

Actually didn't really expect to receive so many gifts. You guys are really amazing. It's my honor being your Friend. =)

Traffic Police

2008-11-24T18:40:00.003+08:00

If there is a word called "SUAY" in Christendom, this is what happened to me today. I got booked by a traffic police for not wearing seat belt. Sigh...

But i feel that there are so many drivers who is a hazard to other drivers like never signal when switching lanes, speeding, hogging two lanes when driving and so much more.... why me?! Why book me?! I only endanger my own life rite?! Sigh...

But still i admit i am wrong... especially i am the "P"rofessional plate driver.

Common Sense

2008-11-09T01:29:00.005+08:00

Pro 10:1

The proverbs of Solomon:

A wise son makes a glad father, but a foolish son is the grief of his mother.

Whatever decisions you make in life, do not think that it only affects you. Think deep, have some basic common sense, spare a thought for the people around you especially your family members. Your irresponsible decision does not affect you alone, it always bring forth itself to the people closest to you.

If you just enjoy the present, making life easy for yourself, please... there are people suffering on your behalf. Stop being self-centered & selfish.

If still you think i am talking crap, think who is the One that suffered all the craps of the world by hanging on the tree because of our craps? Wake up!

Casting Pearls at Swine

2008-10-18T03:47:00.003+08:00

I felt like Jesus when he said about casting pearls at swine where its such a waste of time and effort to explain about the full context of the bible where the person:

1) Does not even believe the bible is entirely necessary.
2) Thinking that the Word of God will only be revealed to 'chosen' people.
3) Making the entire bible like a big mystery to be solve.
4) Reading the bible and contexts in parts.
5) Saying that it's God's will for a person to be good or bad.

If you have the above symptoms, please don't waste my time to put your point across. My God differs from you. So since it is different, please kindly refrain from sharing or want to me 'share' to you to prove your point as there will be no conclusion.

I believe:

1) God's entire Word is totally necessary and applicable whether old or new testament. His Word is complete truth and nothing shall be added or taken even to the slightest dot!
2) My interpretation might not be right, so it's yours. So stop bothering me!
3) There is no big 'hoo haa' mystery to be solved! Give me a break! Why did God want to give us the bible to confuse us?
4) Read the FULL Word of the bible and its counsel. You don't break it in parts to claim its the entire truth since its not really the ENTIRE Word. Stop contradicting yourself!
5) My God is only a GOOD God. If you think He is of any Bad, you can look for satan, where he seems to resemble your god more.

I am not against anyone whose points differs, so don't bother me with ur really DEEP theology since only you've got your own revelation. I'll see u in heaven. I still accept you as who u are and love u. World Peace okay?!

《说好的幸福呢》

词：方文山曲：周杰伦

你的绘画凌乱着.
在这个时刻.
我想起喷泉旁的白鸽.
甜蜜散乱了.

情绪莫名的拉扯.
我还爱你呐.
伴你断断续续唱着歌.
假装没事了.

时间过了走了.
爱情面临选择.
你冷了倦了我哭了.
一开始的不快乐.
你用卡片拭写着.
有些爱只给到这真的懂了.

怎麽了.你累了.说好的.幸福呐
我懂了.不说了.爱淡了.梦远了
开心与不开心.一一叙说着.你在不舍
那些爱过的感觉都太深刻.我都还记得

你不等了.说好的.幸福呐
我错了.泪干了.放手了后悔了
只是回忆的音乐盒还旋转着.要怎么停呐

Disciples

2008-08-28T01:01:00.006+08:00

Just like Jesus having disciples who are of different personalities and characters... so are mine!!!

Some of the interesting facts about them!!! (Muahaha, told u guys i am going to post on my blog!)
*Slept in Mum's room until 12 years old
*Stalked a guy whom she like in secondary school
*Stop drinking from milk bottle only when at Primary 4
*Sang off "key" while on the stage with lotsa audience
*Using $$$ to "threaten" others! (This person is rich sia!)
*"Poo" in the pants in Primary 4
*Run down and scare a uncle who was riding on his bicycle!
*Eating porridge while in the toilet "baking cake"! (extra large font emphasis on this one!)

Please do not come my cell group trying to find who is the above mentioned specifically... cuz "surely" you think you are perfect!?

But yet, the disciples of Jesus made a difference in shaking and changing the nations of the earth, laying down their lives for the sake of the gospel... i believe so are mine....

Mercedes Benz Vito

2008-05-23T17:43:00.009+08:00

I wanna buy a second hand van so that i could use it for transportation (as my cab bills are killing me) as well as being able to start some adhoc projects outside... therefore, why not buy a van while making some pocket money with it rite?! So if anyone out there need a van for transportation for your goods, let me know... i will try to charge cheap cheap okie?... hur hur *kaching* ($_$)...

I went a few places with my cousin trying to find the "perfect" van (er... second hand.. how perfect can it be rite?) that marks my first major purchase for my company... my cousin helped me to test out the vehicles as i am still a noob... and definitely do not wish to crash the van while test driving it, so i better allow the pro to do the job.

And finally set our eyes on a Mercedes Benz Vito 108CDI and then paid the deposit:

This is how it looks like at the back... with a rear split air-con:

As you can see the place where i purchased this van (let me promote for this company)... the salesperson, Sitoh, is actually a hokkien beng. He was really quite interesting chap especially in the way he promote the vehicle. He kept assuring us that the van is in tip-top condition. He is unlike those salesperson whom we met with... He very 讲义气 type where he kept assuring that he will not sell those vehicles with accident and say if he does, he will be an abomination... lolx...Of course we only purchase it after test driving it.

Anyway, for second hand vehicles, you won't know what is going to happen until further down the road where you drive the vehicle rite? So let's see what happens... that's the "thrill' of getting a second hand vehicle.

Sweet Rain

This is an awesome movie that i recommend if you are a lover of japanese movies. Although the story is quite slow moving, but the plot of the movie is really awesome. It is the typical japanese movie where it is not really "hyped" up to win the crowd but potrayed different aspects of life and the meaning of life to make you feel that living your life is worthwhile.

Below is the trailer:

Not forgetting with such a nice japanese movie, there will always be a nice theme song...

Promise Fulfilled

2008-05-20T01:11:00.003+08:00

I have fulfilled a PROMISE.

I just wanna announce that from today onwards.....
ahem....

I AM A DRIVER!

Miracle!

2008-05-13T11:14:00.004+08:00

It's a miracle that i taught 3 bible studies on Monday Morning.
It's a miracle that i could wake up at 7.30am for the 1st bible study.
It's a miracle that power of God was there to heal my member in my 1st bible study.
It's a miracle that the 2nd bible study was short and sweet.
It's a miracle that the 3rd bible study was long yet powerful.
It's a miracle that i realised that i could teach so well for AFV.

It's really a miracle... ... and God is the miracle maker... ...

House of God

We Give You Praise

2008-05-06T00:37:00.006+08:00

Today was a great day! I felt uplifted and encouraged! Although i am very tired after all the work that kept piling up and drowning me, today was one of the greatest sabbath day i had. It really replenishes my dried up soul from all the routine work.

I have watched "Ironman" and it was fantastic! Actually i was not keen to watch it as i saw the trailer isn't really fascinating, but then after the strong recommendation of Mr.Tan Keng Hoe, i went and watched it. The storyline was good, the cast was great and of course, it's only 6 bucks per tix on Monday with my UOB card! Muahaha!

After the movie, managed to spend some time with my "ou xiang", the great wise man Mr.Suraj, at Starbucks down in Orchard Road. Once again was enlightened by his revelation and i feel like Moses when he came down from the mountain where his countenance was glowing! He shared with me some things which really struck my heart. These verses in the bible describes exactly how i feel after my fellowship with him.

Proverbs 3:13-15
13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding;
14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, And her gain than fine gold.
15 She is more precious than rubies, And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her. NKJV

I really thank God for placing such and important man in my life. What i went through during this period of time is exactly in the song below in the latest album of delirious? latest album "Kingdom of Comfort"... ... maybe i will make a sermon out of it.

We Give You Praise

When the road is rough and steep

And it leads a heart to weep

There's an ocean of tears

That you've caught through the years

But we're not stopping here

On this long and winding street

Will you guide these weary feet

Every step that we take

With our hearts full of faith

And we're not stopping here

Together we are stronger

so put your hand in mine

We give you praise

And the king of all the earth

Has saved us from ourselves

We give you praise

Through the avenues of time

Here you meet me where I am

We walk with glory and pain

And you've broken the chains

So there's no stopping here

We sing glory

In the darkness there you shine

Let it shine let it shine let it shine

Tomiko Van

2008-04-22T11:21:00.003+08:00

Sigh... I've been waiting for the latest release of Tomiko Van's Album, but it does not have the asian version for export for singapore sales. HMV only import them direct from Japan and it cost $72 dollars! Crazy lah... Oh man, hopefully it will not be like the previous album where there is no asian version at all... the previous album is out for 1 year already and i dun think there is any chance. It might be that the singapore sales isn't really good therefore they do not carry it. I think if i still couldn't find it anyway, i might wanna ask Elder Tat Haur's Wife Naomi to help me get from Japan... or maybe try to know SOT japanese so that they can buy for me... *Sob.

This is the latest release of Tomiko Van's Album "VOICE 2"

This is the previous release of Tomiko Van's Album "VOICE" which i still couldn't lay my hands on... Sigh...

The Holy Bible Part II

2008-04-08T12:11:00.003+08:00

Mmm, did i mention previously that i wanna get another bible to keep as spare? Err.... thanks to attributes! 30% off bibles... so the story is... i did not get another bible, i simply got two... hur hur hur!

I just wonder why did i buy so many bibles when i knew its impulsive buying... so if you wanna tell me on the "comments" link saying that, "maybe God has lead me to give you one?", save it (省起来 - Hokkien)... invest one on yourself okay?!

Well, at the end of the day, i dunno what is the extra bible for... but i know it will be of good use... haha maybe i should "eat" the word...

Ezek 3:1-33
1 HE SAID to me, Son of man, eat what you find [in this book]; eat this scroll; then go and speak to the house of Israel.
2 So I opened my mouth, and He caused me to eat the scroll.
3 And He said to me, Son of man, eat this scroll that I give you and fill your stomach with it. Then I ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth. AMP

Took me so long to update my post... er... and my excuse is that i've been so busy from the beginning of the preparation for easter until the post easter programs that we have...So i have developed a post-easter syndrome that happen to all those who work in or work for the church.

The Holy Bible

2008-03-15T22:32:00.003+08:00

Finally!!! I've bought the bible that i have been searching... the long awaited PERFECT one that i have longed for years. My old bible have already becoming "epistles" and it has fulfilled 8 years of long service (since year 2000 where our church still use the slogan "the future is ours"), so it is time for me to get a new one. I've been preaching with my old bible for so long and it is kind of unsightly to preach with a bible which is torn and tattered. So finally my perfect bible has arrived!!! It is the well-loved, favourite bible for all preachers!

It has fulfilled all of my criteria which is:
1) New King James Version
2) Thomas Nelson Bible
3) Ultraslim Bible
4) Big Letterings
5) Word of Christ in Red
6) Black Bond Leather
7) Light, Portable & Convenient!

Oh my oh my!!! I am so excited and can't wait to highlight, scribble and read my new bible!!! Heh, i might just want to get another one!!! I think God wouldn't blame me for coveting for another bible right?! Muahaha =)

At Your Service!

2008-03-13T13:22:00.005+08:00

Once a wise man by the name of Rev. Dr. AR Bernard said that: " We are servants and leadership is only a position we hold by serving." Soon after, another wise man by the name of Suraj said: "We can pull out the better of the person we serve." Not forgetting the great man of all times Rev. Dr. Kong Hee also preached on the sermon on servanthood about the GREATEST MAN of all times JESUS lived his life out as a servant proves it all... that is you got to SERVE!

To be a good servant, of course you must learn to give a good service! You do not "suddenly" become a good servant! You've got to learn it! So thank you Sister Karen Chua for giving us (FODs & ACC staff) the lessons of "At your service!" It's really a saving grace for me. Thank you so much!

Matt 20:26
26 But among you it should be quite different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be your servant, NLT

Wanna lead?! Serve first! But of course you can serve without the heart of servanthood. Then the quote below is for you...

"There's little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative."
- W. Clement Stone

So, if your attitude stinks, most likely your outcomes is going to stink too uh!

You can tell whether becoming a servant by how you act when people treat you like one.
-Gordon MacDonald

Let's always learn to serve...

A Promise

2008-03-03T01:22:00.006+08:00

I promise...

It has been my greatest privilege to be up close and personally with Rev. Dr. Kong Hee and once again, a standing ovation for the man of God! Today, it has been such a wonderful time with him along with a few other leaders, sharing our thoughts and hearing from pastor. I had much more fun in today's session compared to the previous few maybe because what he shared today was very much applicable to me and it could be that all of us are not as nervous as compared to the first few sessions.

What was shared was his concern for most of us in the room and the church. He will be preaching it "hot" on the pulpit real soon. It was an issue which was sensitive to me just that i did not have urgency to fulfill or maybe on the other hand, having too many concerns about it.

So, dearest pastor...
What you have shared has been my desire too, therefore...
I promise you that i will do it...

F.I.R. Breakthrough Service

2008-03-02T00:24:00.006+08:00

Am i leading a Ladies Cell Group or what?! It's been so long that i have a breakthrough attendance for weekend service that hit over the 20 mark! Just a cute happening was that all the new friends that came are all girls! The ratio of male vs. female is 1:3!!! Not that i am against it, but just need some balance. Gabriel, you owe me 2 males okie! Faintz!

But of course some of the new friends went down for altar call, just that i heard that one of them was actually quite blur and did not know what the altar call was for and still went down... but who cares rite?! Just integrate her! So all my dear connect group leaders please help me out!!! Let's believe God that after the gals revival will come the guys revival!!! Cux now all pretty gals are in my CG then the guys out there will automatically come drooling over rite?! Hahaha... (Gosh, how can i say that?! I am a CGL leh... Must "act" holy... )

For the whole service, the most beautiful thing which really inspires me is the testimony which F.I.R shared. It's really wonderful to know that great artistes like them could testify of Jesus out loud boldly! Just imagine, the impact which they bring to the society for Jesus, not forgetting the hectic schedule of their career but still living out fervent personal outreaches, attend discipleship trainings, prayer meetings, cell groups and multiple services!

They found the answer to their call, their love and their life. The answer could be found in no one else but Jesus. So do you need an answer in life? Check Him out!

Audacious Faith

2008-02-27T13:02:00.005+08:00

Pastor Ming shared a great word on Tuesday devotion session at suntec. It really blew my mind! Simply awesome =) This is only a glimpse of the sharing...

2 Cor 5:7
7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
NKJV

Faith is a walk as

1) It is always progressive
2) It is natural (walking is very natural to man)
3) It is not by sight as we should not live by man's opinion

Faith is connected with

1) Relationship with God
2) Dependency on God
3) Hearing the Word of God

Mark 5:25-34
25 Now a certain woman had a flow of blood for twelve years,

26 and had suffered many things from many physicians. She had spent all that she had and was no better, but rather grew worse.

27 When she heard about Jesus, she came behind Him in the crowd and touched His garment.

28 For she said, "If only I may touch His clothes, I shall be made well."

29 Immediately the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was healed of the affliction.

30 And Jesus, immediately knowing in Himself that power had gone out of Him, turned around in the crowd and said, "Who touched My clothes?" NKJV

There are so much questions about this passage:

1) Did the woman fulfill the criterias of faith?
2) Why does the woman touch the helm of the garment?
3) Why does she come from behind to touch Jesus?
4) Why does Jesus says:"Who touched My clothes?"

Wanna know why? Ask me then! You think i will post such a great sermon just like that? My Cell Group members will have a chance to hear this full sermon preached to them "live" from Rev.Dr. Jimmy Yong. Put on your seatbelts guys!

Fear

2008-02-23T23:48:00.006+08:00

1 John 4:18
18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love. NKJV

Perfect love cast out fear... this is a verse that causes a tinge at the back of my memory lane... Only He who loves, can help to cast out fear that is in you. You will never be able to cast out fear by yourself. Man fears because of selfishness.

Only way to break free from fear is to receive love. Love is unselfishness, giving to benefit others at the expense of self. Choose unselfishness, choose love, choose freedom.

The greatest love, love of God, giving His only Son for the freedom of man.

Future

2008-02-19T02:12:00.003+08:00

Do you always have to know your future?
Can you not do anything unless your future is guaranteed?

What's the fun in that?
Takes faith to believe... ...
