The iphone revolution:thegeniusinme.tumblr.com will be my new blog sphere moving forward. You who is reading this is cordially invited! :) Goodbye blogspot. Thank you for serving my rants and musings well for the past 5-6 years. I appreciate, love you and will miss you.

Assuming that all HR jobs in MNC is about poaching, I will not want to do HR in the long run. To do something against my conscience, to lie to get my way - that is just beyond me. Guess I will need to talk to more HR people working in MNCs to find out more.

I love You

MY HEARTYou touch it like no other.It is where You love dwelling in.It is the treasure of Your kingdom.It worships and adores You.It expresses love for You that words cannot conceive.And it beats together with Yours.

To regain sanity

2011-04-10T21:52:00.004+08:00

I need to regain sanity. And being a big fat procrastinator simply adds to greater insanity. Moving on in courage and perseverance...to be better.God is my Deliverer.

Back from Turkey for a week

2011-04-09T00:40:00.004+08:00

Haven't blogged since I returned from Turkey and in fact much earlier before that too. Feeling tired everyday due to sleeping at 1am or later...sigh. I'm not complaining, because I know that whatever things I was busy with is of value...I'm meeting up with people important to me, doing things that needs to get done. Yet I want and need rest so badly. I thank God for His grace to carry me through

At Mount Vernon

2011-03-21T22:45:00.003+08:00

I really do not know what I can say, even as I want to get this out of my heart. Except that I feel so much for my friend, being able to understand somewhat the kind of pain that is in place. But I also can see friends and family members rallying around them, giving them the support that they need. The turnout for the wake was massive. The hall could not contain the number of wake attendees. I

Distilling the good from the bad. God leads...And pray. And intercede. And hope that we keep on keeping on with Him. And draw from His strength. The joy of the Lord is mine & your strength.

Do not be afraid

2011-03-13T20:36:00.002+08:00

Do not be afraid of wit. Do not be afraid of someone else's wisdom and advice masked in the form of criticism. Do not be afraid of someone else who knows more than you. The key to not being afraid is Humility. Be humble enough to know we are not as smart or as good. Be honest enough to admit it, and then make efforts to change and become better. At the end of the day, isn't the person who accepts

Dog saying grace (And the story behind it)

I'm supposed to be snoring in bed now, but I just gotta blog about this and share it with whoever!Read the story behind the youtube video below (touching):http://religion.blogs.cnn.com/2010/10/21/man-saved-by-god-and-by-dog-who-says-grace/

On a long bus ride + Goodbye Expo

2011-02-27T23:15:00.000+08:00

Been a long time since I had a long bus ride. :) glad im doing it today. From expo to home.Its the last service of not just the week, but our time in Singapore Expo. Really, I do not think that it's about the place...but the times we spent with each other here, and the revelations and encounters with God that are greater than the former glory of the Jurong West church days. Amazing. My spiritual

Updates for the week

2011-02-20T22:56:00.003+08:00

I know how random this is, but I read a recent news report on ST online about the CHC move to Suntec and I can't help but laugh when I saw the photo of Pst Kong that was used. I'm not laughing AT him...I was thinking how ridiculously lazy reporters can be; either that, or they are so busy thinking about only the content that they couldn't bother about using a nicer photo. Of ALL photos, they just

2011-02-17T12:12:00.003+08:00

Can't believe that I will have a day like this. Blogging at work! :o Is it my increasing ability to manage my time better, or is it due to lower unemployment rate in the recent job market? =\Received prorated bonus! God is good...not supposed to be entitled to it cos I only got confirmed in Jan 2011. Glad that the company still has some "ren qing wei". Just went to check my payslip, I think they

God's best

2011-02-16T22:26:00.003+08:00

And again, I will put my trust in Him. -Hebrews 2:13Need to be less inward looking and put back the mind of Christ. Thank God for an analytic (not over or under) brain that comes into good use at times like these. Am just glad that God's way is a clear, distinct direction that's easy to see and follow if I decide to put my heart to it. :)

Reunion Dinner!

2011-02-13T23:51:00.002+08:00

Had a great reunion dinner tonight with E529 and W425. Had the hardest and longest laughter and jokes ever across the dinner table. It was so memorable especially for the extra "excellent" service. LOL. Well it was a great day in summary, being in church to listen to Paul Scanlon preach about 'lost'. Really awesome....love the way he thinks, the way he orientates while preaching. Thereafter, we

I want to blog updates about my malaysia escapade over CNY, but I'm so lazy to do so. Or rather, tired after a long (but good) day at work. I want but I don't want.zzz

3 steps to a clean & tidy room fit for living

2011-02-02T00:06:00.004+08:00

1) Making space - throwing out unwanted things2) Clearing obviously messy places, ie. my table and ad hoc stuff on the floor3) Organize organize! Put everything in place. I got a feeling....that half a day is not enough for me to do all three! So much for spring cleaning....it's a lot of work if you're talking about MY room.

Feeling Blessed

2011-01-30T20:44:00.003+08:00

God is so good. Even when I don't exactly require things to happen in order for my faith to increase in Him, He makes those things happen nevertheless. God is such a good Father and encourager of my spirit....He is a God of abundance and blessings!I know the faith of my church is real...when it's raining heavily this morning and the hall is still packed in the usual manner. I know the faith of my

Debt collector

2011-01-25T00:41:00.002+08:00

I'm gonna be a debt collector tomorrow, if not on Wednesday. Sounds fun? =\

Paranoid.

2011-01-22T23:26:00.002+08:00

When everything is going smoothly, I become paranoid. I always feel that it's the calm before the storm. Why am I so kiasi? Sigh.I like the process when I am striving for something. When I am nothing yet and I am supposed to prove my worth. At that phase, there is nothing much I can afford to lose. Gotta pray more and spend more time in God's presence....to remind myself of the peace of God in my

2011-01-19T23:40:00.003+08:00

I LOVE THIS!New K pop girl group called Piggy Dolls. I get the idea behind that name, but I thought that they could give themselves better deserving names than "piggy"! I looooove their vocals! They got me sucked in! I'm buying their album!!

holiday trip confirmed!

2011-01-17T21:41:00.002+08:00

The verdict is out - we are going JAPAN in Spring to see cherry blossoms for just $2300/person (inclusive of tax, hotel, SIA tickets, food!)! Mum's paying the deposit tomorrow.Eggcited. That's going to happen in end of March. Booking through Chan Brothers. Seriously, I hope this takes off successfully and not have the "oh not enough people to form a tour group so cannot go" problem. That happened

Confirmed!

2011-01-16T23:58:00.003+08:00

Now that I am confirmed, my family is planning for a holiday some time in Feb but we can't seem to come to a consensus of how long the trip is going to take, or which country to go. Haha. My brother wants to go to Hokkaido, but me and my dad are not too sure if our health can take the coldness of that place. My dad and mum suggests going back to Guangzhou/HK to visit our relatives cum Chinese New

2011-01-13T21:52:00.002+08:00

It's quite relieving to see my nose like a mucous tap, at least some stuff are coming out and my body is cleared of some bacteria. But not until I start to feel the nose bridge feeling sore every time I clear the nose. And then to see tiny traces of blood in the mucous on the tissue paper.But overall, I feel glad that my body is behaving like a regular sick body, rather than behaving a little

Hopeful!

2011-01-09T23:42:00.005+08:00

I just feel so full of hope. Things people say about me, things that are turning out the way that I'm sensing it would be, to know that I am practising the wisdom of God, to seek changes and be self improved in my character and discipline....is very encouraging. And I appreciate all who thinks well of me. Really.Today Pastor Mark Kelsey spoke for the first time in CHC (first weekend), and I'm

2011 ftw!!!

2011-01-02T20:44:00.002+08:00

Learnt valuable lessons today about dreaming big and dreaming right. What a great way to start 2011! Jan 1 and 2 happens to fall on the weekend! Purrrfect start for 2011 <3 01) Your dream develops you > you developing your dream02) God only uses dreamers! 03) Faith is spiritualized imagination; it is equivalent to having a vision/dream!04) Without faith (a dream), it is impossible to please God

End of 2010: Blessed!

2010-12-31T23:15:00.002+08:00

With about 45 minutes left of 2010, I'm blogging! Seems like 2010 has been a relatively good year for most people that I observe and know. Personally, it's the same sentiments. Found job satisfaction in the very first serious job I'm in, grew alot from leading a cell group, had testimonies after testimonies, my 3rd uncle got SAVED, prayers got answered, and so much more. I can't thank Him enough

Hoping: 2011

2010-12-29T22:38:00.002+08:00

Nua nua nua nua nuaaaahhh. Tired after shopping and dinner at Orchard with a colleague. I was supposed to be at Tat Haur's place tonight for the orchestra's post concert gathering!!! It totally slipped off my mind. SIGH. Ended the year with good news and testimonies! Praying that 2011 will start off well too. Just felt that this Christmas, could have been more focused spiritually. Anyway, still

short entry for now

2010-12-19T21:43:00.002+08:00

Decided that I'm too tired to repaint my nails. Woohoo! Had a long but pretty fruitful Sunday. Feels weird though, without 5 members joining us for fellowship either because of overseas trips or serving in choir. Need to pray for physical and mental strength to go through this coming week. Work, dnd drama rehearsals, christmas concert, services, dinners! Am looking forward to a great year ahead!!

$$$

2010-12-05T18:34:00.002+08:00

Did my nails after a long time. Only to destroy the thumb enamel finish the moment i stepped home. This is bad! Spent a lot a lot of money. On contact lens, manicure package, Korean & Taiwan dramas (They were going at super low prices at Blue Max!!) & itsy bitsy stuff like foot spray, sweets. And previously I bought a lot a lot of Christian CDs. Not to mention, I spent quite a bit on FOOD

Fruitful

2010-12-02T22:36:00.002+08:00

Today hasn't been much of a fruitful day until I made a call to a passed down client company - an old & dormant client my leader passed to me to call. Turns out that she was so eager to meet up with me & my team leader. I suppose there are position openings and that is the reason why. That really made my day!

This made my day

2010-11-29T18:16:00.002+08:00

Hahaha! This made my day!! I love Eli's awkward gesture when he is supposed to say "try to be half as good as me!" before he hits Alexander. Yea it's me and my U-kiss craze again. I love to see them hosting cos they are SO funny and entertaining!

Sleeping.

2010-11-29T09:54:00.005+08:00

Haven't been able to get good quality sleep while trying to rest alot over the weekend cos of my fever. Sigh. Wonder where my light hearted, doesn't-make-sense dreams went. I seem to think ALOT in my dreams. Too much for my own good. Is that a sign of being a grown up? Then I don't wanna grow up....lol. I love to dream weird and unrealistic dreams like I always do in the past. They make sleeping

Can you attempt such a ctrl-alt-del action again in your life? Yes,

Violin!

2010-11-25T23:06:00.002+08:00

I feel I've been so deprived of classical music now that I've gone back to it after a long hiatus. I feel more alive now...pumped up after 1.5 hours of violin practice. Haven't been touching that instrument for a long time, and am so happy to be going back to it because of an Orchestra recital happening on 22nd Dec. Rehearsals have begun, and time is really tight. Glad I took tonight to revise

Recently watched Slumdog Millionaire. Purchased the DVD some time back cos it was going at $13 only, and I must say, it is a good investment. Really great show that reflects the reality of India's social issues. Got culture shocked. I also purchased Pride and Prejudice DVD, which I have watched twice already thus far. I really love that movie so much! There's so much details in the scenes that

eventful tuesday

2010-11-16T23:04:00.004+08:00

Eventful Tuesday.But I do get a kick out of getting people to talk about their inner problems and thus for me to know personal stuff of that person. I think it means I am a good listener, and I am someone trustworthy enough for somebody to open up to me. It also means, people cannot be differentiated into either black or white, good or bad. Praying for that person. And for him to somehow get to

Art of Listening

2010-11-12T23:19:00.003+08:00

Listening is...1) Focusing on what he/she is trying to say2) Asking quality questions to help you understand what he/she is trying to say3) Confirming along the way that you are STILL listening4) Not taking your own mental trip while she/he is still talking, but travelling along together while she/he talksHow to listen: With your face - your eyes, mouth, whole body. Listening is a form of loving.

Overcoming

2010-11-12T00:41:00.002+08:00

Certainly it feels good to do the right thing in the midst of tiredness or busyness. Certainly it feels even more so to do the God thing in the midst of tiredness or busyness. It is really about the ability and capacity to ride above the flesh and circumstances.5 more minutes to sleep time. It's Friday! :)

I guess the older I get, the more I know the importance of getting right advice from the right sources, the more careful I become when choosing the right person to open up to. Especially so if I know that I am lacking in experience or knowledge of a particular thing. In case I get the wrong thing stuck in my head especially if I am very green in that area. And most of the time except for my close

Typing on the bed now. with 2 fingers. haha.I'm thankful to have found much satisfaction through my job. Even though sometimes I go through rough patches and the process of finding a solution can be tedious and even painful sometimes, it doesn't change the fact that I find satisfaction through my job. As opposed to the time I was in university. To be honest, I was really lost at that time. Having

Just thinking about alot of things which I won't post it up. I'll be honest...there are quite many things that I wouldn't want to put up on my blog because they are only to be shared with my closest pals. I have this particular friend who is so open and transparent, she doesn't open up and then expect me to open up in the same way. Her transparency is unconditional and I really love her as my

Ate paracetamol and I'm all perspiring now. I'm convicted that own feelings is not accurate. Haha the last time I was sick the doc lectured me for not going to doc with high fever. Coz it didn't FEEL like a high fever.I thought my fever was 38.5 degrees or less today, and should be considered moderate only. But using the thermometer, it was 38.9 degrees. Got a shock and immediately took 2 tablets

Eulogies

2010-10-07T22:09:00.003+08:00

Ah.I take special interest in listening to eulogies, because the eulogy deliverer is often someone whom is close and intimate with the dead person. They share things about the dead person in their speech, that few know about. The silent goodness which the person established while still alive is usually unsung until the point of eulogy delivery. It would be a pity to let the unsung be unsung

.A sentence without a word. Really don't know how to describe what is going on at workplace recently. Messy, confusing, disappointed, blur but aware enough to know how to manage my work relationships, and how to veer towards positive thinking amidst this chaos.Guess it's true; first few months in the company, is just knowing the surface. As time passes, more is naturally revealed and one begins

My childhood domestic helper, Dona, actually found me in Facebook yesterday night! Such a pleasant surprise after losing touch with her for about 1 to 2 years. =) It really made my day. Then, I met Lynn on the train ride to work this morning and we chatted briefly. That made my day too! In my heart, I'm silently thankful to God for His grace provided by creating situations like these that makes

2010-09-21T00:43:00.002+08:00

Just when I'm about to go to bed, I surfed Facebook. What an eventful Monday it has been. Pressure pressure pressure. Dealing with difficult people, situations constantly throughout the day. Little wonder why seeing my own FB status encouraged me so much: Life is good and always will be! Hidden in every difficulty is a new opportunity to shine!Yup that resurrected the tired

Sick again!

2010-09-17T10:41:00.002+08:00

Haha. Seems like only when I am on leave that I can come in to blog. And it's not a good thing, coz when I am on leave, is MC leave. I'm sick again!!!Sigh. I'm fed antibiotics for the 3rd time this year. This is bad. Too much antibiotics isn't good...but that's the tragic life of a white collar worker; must get well immediately so as to minimise disruption in work productivity.Guess the best way

It's over!

2010-08-31T20:42:00.002+08:00

So. This is the last day of the entire wake. What an experience indeed. First wake I have experienced, for a close relative that I have attended in Singapore. Some of the customs are alien to me, but customs are customs. Guess it's a necessary evil.Thruout the 4 days, I have quite a lot of revelation about my grandma as a person, as a believer, and also revelations about life in general. All I

My ageing father

2010-08-30T00:39:00.002+08:00

Perhaps. My mum's amazing ability to look radiant despite her age has caused me to overlook the fact tt my dad has really aged over time. I wonder if the sudden revelation came while going thru the whole hospitalization, deathbed & funeral process of my granny. Dad's hands and arms used to be fair and firm , but they r now covered with age spots and wrinkles. His smooth skinned face used to glow,

My granny.

2010-08-29T21:39:00.000+08:00

Just done with the first wake service for my granny. Should be heading home soon with my dad and brother. Didnt know many things about her, I just realised! Due to communication barrier, we do not talk much beyond "have u eaten? the girl in the drama very bad..." etc. Oh my gosh, this is totally Jack Neo's Money No Enough 2. Well, so I found out today that my grandma has been a Christian since

The wake.

2010-08-29T10:26:00.002+08:00

My granny has passed on, on the Friday evening. In fact, I'm rather glad that she is now with God, released from her physical pains and sufferings.Yesterday my brother, aunt and cousin and myself were entertained by my young cousin who loves food passionately. Food = anything and everything that can be eaten. He's just really passionate about food at a young age. I'm pretty amazed. With much

Pay Increase!

2010-08-26T22:35:00.002+08:00

My pay together with the rest of the newbies, got a pay revision. Something to yay about? Not really. That means my minimum quota-to-hit has gone up as well! I now have to hit a total of $8600 sales to NOT suffer a paycut. :(Oh well, but I still believe God is good. He has His grace poured down on me at my workplace. I already crossed my initial month of August target of $8000 sales up till now.

Mentor's last day today

2010-08-23T22:33:00.002+08:00

Hmm. So today is THE day - my mentor's last day at work. Thank God I didn't cry. My colleague from the same team actually did. Sigh. It's hard not to be affected when one person starts the ball rolling. But I guess I managed it well...coz I know if I start, I won't be able to stop.Sometimes I rather not be too close to a person especially when that person is leaving. But in this case, I guess it

Upset.

2010-08-20T23:31:00.002+08:00

I just typed my mentor a long letter. I didn't hand write it because I don't have ink pen since I graduated from school. Anyway, it's the contents that matter haha.Today was a bit sad, seeing my mentor starting to pack most of his things so that he is ready to go off on Monday.I have just got to know him better (coz I'm a slow to warm up person), and now he is leaving already. Sigh.Such is life.

My Mentor

Had a good talk with my mentor this afternoon while waiting for our client during a business visit. He will be leaving the company this coming Monday to work in a managerial position somewhere else.All these while I've been saying that I will feel the effect of depression and loss after going through life without him around the office. Afterall, he is a pretty loud and bubbly character in the

Happy Friday the 13th

2010-08-13T21:38:00.002+08:00

It was both a good and bad day. Good because I managed to earn a free movie ticket this week again! Our company implemented this system, whereby as long as we fill 5 people into temporary/holiday jobs we will get 1 movie ticket. Have been hitting this weekly target since like a month ago? So am really glad I am maintaining my fill temp rate. Have 2 tix by now. :)Bad because I was supposed to

NDP 2010: Happy 45th B'day Singapore!

2010-08-10T00:21:00.002+08:00

I think live broadcast video-ing is very important. Determines the level of patriotism and euphoria I feel when watching the whole NDP. I am saying this because I went for NDP 2010 and watched it from the choir's side. Was seated at the blue section. Versus watching last year's parade on TV, I actually prefer last year's NDP. So yup. I suppose it's the whole video focus and effects that make the

Just a thought...about the "Totem"

2010-08-07T01:14:00.004+08:00

Inception is a movie not to be taken literally....rather, it makes more sense to understand the significance of the theories, and how it can be meaningfully applied.Was just thinking about the totem. Wbpictures tweeted (Warner Brothers), "What is your totem?" which led me to have the revelation that the "totem" in our lives is something which will make us feel that THIS is life; like "I am alive

Phew! At work.

2010-08-02T22:21:00.002+08:00

Haha it always works......to expect the worst, but hope for the best. Today the CEO didn't say anything. He is sick haha. No compliments, neither was there criticism. Kind of relieved, but at the same time I know I had to work harder and keep the performance rates up. Self-push is the best motivator! Glad I can find it when I need it usually. :)

Happy 21st, City Harvest!

2010-08-01T22:43:00.003+08:00

I think the hardest hit would be to fall from a spiritual and emotional high all the way down...but I'm readying myself to face the music tomorrow, when the weekly meeting with the CEO is going to take place. My performance will definitely be affected due to the taking of MC last week. Nevertheless, it's not going to stop me from feeling jubilant today, which marks my church's 21st Birthday.Still

2010-07-29T08:43:00.002+08:00

Just realized I'm blogging mostly on weekends now. Haha. How work changes everything I used to be! Was a daily blogger and youtube watcher, and twitter addict! Still am, a twitter addict, though...somewhat. :pAnyway I've taken MC, so I'm staying at home to recuperate. Really dislike being sick. If at home have medicine nevermind. Must go see doctor to get MC = $$$! Sigh. I'm totally visiting the

Bad to Good Monday!

2010-07-26T22:51:00.002+08:00

Today started off with me reluctant to go work. The awesome rainy sleep-in weather gave me a good excuse to dilly dally a little. But I still managed to reach office in time haha. Weird thoughts like "should I quit?" invaded my mind from the moment I opened my eyes from slumber.To be honest, this is not the first time I doubted the choice I made career wise. Ironic right? Deep inside me I'm

1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. God is good all the time. I believe that this is a test of how badly I want to succeed for the glory of God. I think I am prepared to do whatever

Joyful~

2010-07-21T23:02:00.002+08:00

Thank you God!!!! :0)Gotta keep praying and having a positive attitude throughout! Family, work/career, friends, relationships, ministry, spiritual life...Everything is in God's hands!

Growing up~

2010-07-18T21:50:00.002+08:00

I should aim to sleep at 1030pm. There goes my Sunday. A busy one this week.Brought my mum to do manicure and pedicure at AMK. A belated birthday gift. Ate Tip Top curry puff! It's yummy...plus the fact that i was hungry then. Didn't get to fill up my stomach with the Lerk Thai lunch...Thai restaurants servings seem to always be so small!I strive not to touch my fingers. Moisturize moisturize!!!

Communication

2010-07-16T21:06:00.005+08:00

I didn't want to blog about this, just probably tweeting. But it seems too lengthy to be tweeted. So I decided to blog.I think some people really need to grow up. Getting dua-ed is not a nice feeling. But more than just feeling upset, it's the feeling of disappointment about the way people don't communicate, or simply don't grow up.So far, I have been dua-ed quite a few times already on the job.

Foreseeing something

2010-07-10T23:45:00.003+08:00

Foreseeing a potential vulnerable spot. Benchmarking my happiness level with work performance. Unconsciously, I do sense a bit of that happening and I don't want to let it fester further.Pastor Mike Connell preached about "Winning IN the wilderness", a message that I loved thoroughly. The devil teaches (okay not the best word I know) us 3 concepts:1) I am what I do (if you don't perform/produce

Crystal Jade dinner with relatives

2010-07-09T00:16:00.003+08:00

Today is quite an interesting day. First, I coincidentally met @mingxunq at Rafflesplace mrt with his friend, and although I went off first because I was rushing to meet my parents and relatives for dinner, we took the same train and alighted at the same stop going to the same mall. Lol. I managed to escape this string of coincidences eventually as I did a little window shopping before walking

The flesh vs. spirit

2010-07-07T23:57:00.003+08:00

I realize how the flesh works. Or can say how the devil uses the flesh to work against us. Was super tempted to report sick on Monday. Call it Monday blues or exhaustion over the weekend or whatever. I was literally dragging myself out of bed in the morning, super unwilling to go to work. But I talked myself out of it in the end, because I had people coming into the office to be interviewed by me

Too inward looking?

2010-07-04T19:08:00.002+08:00

To be too inward looking is not always a good thing, when all or most I can see is negative things. That means that my mind and focus is on the negative, which isn't very healthy to say the least. Truth is, we are better than what we think we are - when we feel bad. Just a random food for thought.A new week is starting. To some, Sunday is counted as the first day of the week so the brand new week

Saturday - a weepy morning

I wonder how long ago Lang Lang's piano concert tickets has already been sold out. =( His concert with the SSO is in OCTOBER. And now is like July only. SIGHHH. I got to know of this news too late...Another disappointment is my inability to attend FIR's concert on 9 July. Because my convocation falls on the same day same time. =( How I wish I didn't have to turn up for the convocation...but for

Work Life Balance

2010-06-28T23:35:00.003+08:00

Today the CEO talked about work-life balance briefly. His words made some sense to me.Let's just say that to understand the CEO's points, we must try to appreciate the heart behind his words. That's the only way I relate to the CEO, and I think it's the only way that makes life easier to handle when around him. He's not the nicest CEO around with his sarcastic remarks and curt words. But I know

Twitter fail whale is up. OVER CAPACITY! Oh Well.Listening to 100.3fm while typing this entry. Why? U-Kiss is coming on!!!! YEAH!!! :DI couldn't go to their promotional activities on Sunday (the Sheng Shiong show la! Did you know "Sheng Shiong" trended #1 topic in Twitter yesterday???)Because firstly, it was Father's day and secondly, my church friend's wedding which I'd never miss for anything.

Back from Taiwan!

2010-06-08T00:49:00.002+08:00

I haven't emo-ed for the past 8 days because I had a blast in Taiwan. I suspect that I am under-performing in life, and that's why I have so much time and effort left for emo-ing all these while. Right? I need to do things that I enjoy.But these 8 days that I was away, a lot of things happened back in Singapore...my prayers is with my church even when in Taiwan. The investigation is going to take

Rantings from Taiwan!

2010-05-31T23:27:00.002+08:00

Am at middle of Taiwan now. It's been great - no need to elaborate further. Went to Taipei 101, the wind was HUGE at the 91st floor. Went to other places as well. Really liked Artist's street, which we were given 1 hour to roam around. The place looked cottage like, very homely juz like Singapore's Haji Lane! It's got really specialized stores.Well, am currently nursing a bad cough. Resisting it

Asia Conference 2010

2010-05-29T22:54:00.002+08:00

Faith, Hope, Love. Asia Conference is all about these 3 things, if I could summarize it.Have been there from Wednesday, and it has been awesome.I enjoy being enthusiastic about every single session, because I know that is the right attitude to come before God and the man of God. True enough, I received so much revelation and inspiration from the various preachers, that I think it can last me for

Cracking the Dress Code

June 19th is Weiqiang and Hellen's wedding at Fort Canning and I'm excited not just because I will be witnessing their matrimony, but that I get to explore the unexplored territory of 'Summer Chic' dress style. That is the dress code they have set for their important event. So WQ & Hellen (if you're reading this), thank you for creating this challenge for me haha. It's a challenge because I do

Notes to Self

2010-05-17T18:15:00.005+08:00

We are the army of God. We meet in church every Sunday to get revitalized by the breath of God. Monday through Saturday, church is carried in our hearts. We carry the vision and dreams of God with us as we fight the battle against principalities and powers of the darkness. We make sure we keep focus on the vision and dreams shared to us by God. Certainly, we have to make sure we don't get tempted
