「 Greatly Blessed, Highly Favoured, Deeply Loved 7:09 PM 」

I don't know what woke me in the middle of the night at 3.30am to blog on this. Its only today I realised how much I have changed after believing in Christ. I remembered never in my life I ever bought a music Cd. No matter how popular what and what band is, no matter how good the advertising of those CDs, they never got me to buy it. And yet, yesterday, I bought a CD of hymms praising God. My concept in terms of finance, health, relationships have also changed. Some people asked me why I suddenly got so much faith. I tell them that God has so greatly blessed my life that he respond to my every call of help. The signs may be subtle and weak that you may not realise it unless you are conscious of it. I also learnt to appreciate life and all small little good things that happen to me. People sometimes dismiss their blessings and moan over things they do not have and ended up feeling sorrow and painful.

My thoughts are different from what they used to be. My life not only revolve over myself. I felt the need to help and influence those in need. I am not saying about those hyporcites who acted so pitiful to gain the sympathy of some kind souls, but those who are in need yet refuse to accept that they are in need. You know, we have to be as wise as sepents, yet as harmless as dust.

Yesterday's message by Pastor Prince from New Creation Church was that humans have to do the natural so that He can do the supernatural. From John 6:5:10, Jesus said," Make the people sit down." This senario was about Jesus having to feed five thousand people with just 4 loaves of bread and 2 fishes. After making the people sit down, he gave thanks and his disciples distributed the food and still remained 12 baskets full of bread. This occur to us everyday. Every time when we sit down and have our meals, we are receiving God's blessings. By doing the natural of sitting down and God do the supernatural of feeding us. I know people might be thinking, that means to say I can just sit down and food falls from the sky? No, of course not. He give you the means and ability to have money to buy your food. The reason why we Christians give thanks to God before our meal is that we want the little blessings of food to manifest in our life. By giving thanks, the blessings multiply, just like what Jesus do before he distributed the food the masses. By giving thanks to the little (5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes), he ended with abundance (12 baskets of leftovers).

One of his message was that whenever you look at Jesus, good things happen. Then some people might say,:" My had a bad flu now, I called upon Jesus to heal now but it is not healed now leh." But when they do get well a few days later, they forgot it is Jesus's work. When you look at him for something, say you want to bring down the plant of curse, he struck it hard at the roots. In an instance, you cannot see the plant is dead. But the next few days when you return, you realise it have withered.

Today's dance was cool. We finally get to go into formation. Some slight changes were made in the dance steps to synchronize the overall performance. After missing a few lessons really make me unable to catch up for the first half of the lesson. Fortunately the other half was fine.

It has been years since I last attended NDP celebration until Ashlyn invited me for one. I enjoyed the firworks and perhaps the overall atmosphere. However, somehow I found it not worth squeezing with hundreds and hundreds of smelly, sticky people just to watch a celebration that last around 2 hours. The only thing is that I got good accompany which makes the trip considerably enjoyable. The fireworks are really good too minus some repetitation from last year.

I am truly blessed. Woke up forgetting about unhappy stuff. Met Ashlyn on the train this morning and invited me to NDP preview tomorrow. So fortunate! Still remembered my colleagues are moaning that they don't get to go to NDP and would yearn for one. And here I am being able to go! Luckily Regina is able to cancel my work day.

An very important meeting was held in the afternoon with directors, doctors, professors gathering. Before the meeting I was to make orders from catering and also see that everything was set up and arrange before they came. I help take minutes for Silvia. I hate to take minutes because I always cannot catch what they are discussing. I did what I can though. Woffles Wu was supposed to attend the meeting but he didn't turn up. I was like quite anxious to see him in person.

Bounced into Ben on my way to meeting Vivien. I found it such a concidence. Not supposed to buy anything in this shopping trip but ended up buying a shorts. What is most irritating was that it was too small for me. Ended up having to auction it.

Selling at $5 now.

The ache in my heart is renewed again. All along I thought I have been covering it good enough. It is like a knife stabbing into my heart once again. It hurts that you feel like crying, but yet unable to do so. It is like being stuck in a well, and a person came to pull you up. But after hanging on for a while, the person let go and also a monster pulled me back. I got to struggle with that monster all over again. But I know God will bless me to conquer that monster and out of that well. Amen.

Its a great feeling hanging out with close friends to neighbouring countries like Malaysia. We had a quick weekend getway.Huey was a great host. Her mum always ensures that we were comfortable. Upon reaching there, we bounced onto Huey's sister. We got onto the car and headed to buy fishball noodles and then back to her house. At first I noticed the baby there. I thought I would find her irritating and was about to feel annoyed that there is a baby at home. Surprisingly, I was so much into her. She is one of the few babies I liked. She looked very cartoon judging from her actions and appearance. Her hair is very sparse making her looked as though she was shocked by electricity. She likes to giggle when she got our attention. All in all I felt she was a happy baby.

She is one of the few babies who don't cry when I carry her. I don't usually like babies because they always seem to cry when I hug them. Yet they are so huggable. Still, I didn't really know how to handle her when she is in my arms thereby carrying her for only less than a minute. Haha...

The shopping centre didn't sell many interesting stuff. Majority of the things we bought are foodstuff for our families. I bought a jumper suit though. It is at a cheaper rate compared to Singapore.

Victoria invited me down to the basement to judge the winners of a shoe drawing competition. There are numerous boxes of decorated shoes. We laid those with potential onto the floor and eliminate the rest. I can see some students really put a lot of effort decorating it.Sadly, only 3 will be selected. We scanned through the shoes very quickly. Those which are good will catch our eye and we will retrieve it while the rest are goner. Halfway through I got to take some photographs of some paintings and thereby did not stay through the selection. In the end, two of the three shoes I thought deserve an award whereas one of them looked ordinary to me. The third one looked normal.

Watch Priates and the Caribbean at night. I really like Jack Sparrow a lot. I realised throughout the whole show, he never once expressed fear, not even when the ending when he got eaten by that monster. Compared to Orlando, I thought he stood out. The most entertaining part must be the part where he pretended to be a God and how he commanded the villagers to do things and how he escaped from them later on. He sashays with irreverent gaiety, speaks in singsong, is unashamedly cowardly. The show lasted for about 2 hours plus. I thought it is really worth the price because it is truly very entertaining unlike Superman which is long but boring. Initially, I thought this show was a show for children because of all the monsters and priates.

I miss my bro when he is away. He will be back only on Saturday. Though we seldom get to dine together, we will still chit chat at night. Its a form of loss I felt. But I know time will fly. Soon, he will be back. Hope he enjoyed himself. God Bless.

In the past, I thought that history of art will put me to sleep. The curators all have deep passion for arts with minimum Bachelor in Art History qualification unlike me. Its only when I got lots of exposure to many types of arts then I found it is interesting in its own ways. Its actually a depictation of the lifestyle from The Bronze Age, Early Christian, Medievial World all the way to the Modern World. The artist's feelings and thoughts are all being displayed in his works. When Sze Wee wants me to scan a thick, thick book of some images, I was l stunned thinking how boring it is going to be. But the moment I opened the book, I got hook onto the amazing images of ancient times to modern times. Depictations of angels and women made me felt at peace. The upper body of women are usually exposed. Some art works just look so serene and quiet. Prior to that, some works make you ponder and observe them. I found several ones which caught my interest.

Edward Hopper. New York Movie. 1939. Oil on canvas. Hopper's objective, apparently impersonal manner, and his snapshot view of his subjecs, cannot disguise a very personal note of melancholy and loneliness. We look at his paintings, uncertain whether he is praising or criticising what he shows us.

Jan Steen . The World Upside Down. 1663. Oil on canvas. The canvas is inscribed in Weelde Siet Toe (When you lead the sweet life, be prudent). This is a tag or proverb typical of Steen. He intended a warning, there is no doubt that he enoyed depicting scenes of which he obstensibly disapproved.

Roger van der Weyden. The Descent from the Cross. c1435. Painting on Panel. Facial expression is important and gestures and actions are more dramatic.

Roger van der Weyden. The Entombment. c 1450. Painting on panel. The more extrovert aspects of grief have been quietly laid on one side. Only the symbolism of grief is retained in the attitude of the kneeling Magdalen.

Choose to show up. The more you don't feel like attending something, the more you should show up. God will send his blessings in his own way. It will be enjoyable when you enjoy present moment.

Finally I have got the air cleared. The situation I am in now is something like that of yes 93.3, my music diary. I am carefree once again. As what I used to be.

Thanks God for blessing me always.

Chan Meng, Victoria and me set off to one of the artist's house (Lim Tze Peng). Chan Meng drove us there. I was supposed to take notes, but since they spoke in chinese, I don't know how I should write it. His house was a bungalow near Geylang. His specialisation is in caligraphy. On the floor was a huge stroll of chinese caligraphy along with brushes and ink.

Lim Tze Peng is in his 80s and yet he seemed healthy. His bungalow is three storey and yet he don't have any problems climbing the staircase. This is the works he drew to show us.

Soon after that, we headed to Crumpler. Victoria wanted to buy a bag for her camera. It is only on our journey there then I realised Chan Meng is a Christian. Some of the things he said to Victoria resemble what my pastor said. He said that admist work, one should also learn to relax and enjoy ourselves. Victoria was supposed to rush back to work at first. Upon hearing that, she agreed to do some shopping. Surprisingly, I realised that they both don't really have a passion in arts, especially Chan Meng. At first, i thought people who works in the art museum really have a love for arts. However, it dawns on me that it is not true. I supposed they themselves don't really know what they really like. They work so hard doing things they loathe and the only target is towards retirement. I believe its important to do the things you love and eventually you will love your work. Then we headed to Burger King to have our lunch.

Argh~~ I need a rest. Not going work tomorrow. Felt so tired. Its been nights since I had proper rest... God Bless...

Loving someone is not having that person but knowing what the person really wants and letting go knowing you cannot provide what the person wants.

Recently, I was motivated to do things I never thought of doing. I supposed its the influence of someone. I felt that suddenly I learnt to care about people around me who bothered to care about me. I used to think family is not that important. But its only recently that it really spurred me that when times of crisis (sickness), those who really stand by your side are your family and really close friends. Those who will give you advice on how to recuperate your body and those who will want to drink a bottle of bitter tea just to be let you feel its less bitter.

I suddenly felt that I should do something for them. In order to do things for them, I need to have plenty of knowledge and doing something constructive instead of wasting my time doing nonsense things. My new target in life is to be achieve financial freedom.... clear all the debts and have all that I wanted. It might be delayed gratification but if I don't begin, I will never reach the destination I really want.

Lastly, I supposed I received the blessings of The Almightly one who really put light in my life.

Went to the Eu Yan Seng this morning, supposed to meet someone after that. Sadly, the person cannot make it. Just when I was thinking how to spend the rest of my day, I suddenly remembered that Shumin lives TPY. Quickly called to ask her to lunch with me.

Soon after, I thought since I still left with so many hours to go before my work at Sp, I shall insist on getting Lord's word. I rushed my way down alone to the Rock. I knew that I will be taking the overflow room and thus head straight up to Level 6. Unfortunately or fortunately, the usher said it was full. Not giving up, I headed all the way to the main service knowing that I might have to sit on the floor.

Just as expected, I was ushered to sit on the floor. Just as I was feeling a bit sad. I thought that God loved me so much and will give me a nice seat. As soon as I thought that, the usher tapped my shoulder and ushered me to one seat with two youngsters beside me. I suddenly thought that if I wasnt rejected a seat in the overflow room, I would not be seated on the floor. And if I wasn't seated on the floor, I would not be asked to seat on the chair in the main service. All this seem to be Lord's doings for me. He has his way of showing us what is best for us.

The pastor shared something I foound very stimulating. Paster Prince said that sometimes God closed certain doors for us so that we will get to doors leading to better things. Do not try to bang doors that are not meant for us as behind it may be something disastrous. He said if someone is not meant for you, he will give signs to tell you that the person is not suitable for you. If a relationship will to break, it might imply that better ones are there for you. You won't know if the person you knowing would be a womanizer or a cheater of your feelings or whatsoever. Sometimes one must learn to let things flow and leave the rest in the hands of God.

He also mentioned about homosexual. They are actually works spread by the devil in the past. Mutant angels are said to lay with humans, therefore creating mutants. The purpose is to destroy mankind such that there wont be a line. It is said that God threw fire to stop the homosexuals from spreading and harming his children. If there isn't a stop to this, humankind will perish.
