i had this interesting conversation with jon last night. it's about how we constantly pit ourselves against people we "unconsciously" compare ourselves to. and it's quite funny because as a woman, i always think that we have double standards to live up to (do we ladies?). probably for me because when i lack conviction, i start to get persuasive. and i mean, as much as i think i understand why certain things appear the way it is or how things work, so long as majority doesnt agree, i cave. but that was pretty much how i was just a couple of months ago. yeah, a total schmuck made in singapore with all much respected kiasuism and kiasism.
and funnily enough, while i face my own double standard issues, men faces them as well - in terms of all things big. bigger car, bigger paycheque, bigger house, bigger biceps (just look at those G³ - clad GreyGymGay bunnies and you'll understand why) and a bigger manhood (im stating this as an overall statement of "big" issues so pardon my crude comments ya?) and women... why do some like to size each other up and down like as if looking from top to toe isnt rude enough and they even do it with the the corner of their eyes (and i thought rem is powerful enough). really, what are they thinking and doing? i give up.
well, with all due respect, the previous paragraph is something that i face so bear with my ranting of my experience with the funny people i meet.
updates:
went for a japanese buffet at akira with family and jon. pops made many killer cold jokes which surprised jon especially (he aint no cold blooded chopper welding fish killer okay =p), had penang laksa with jon's family (his pops reign as the ultimate cold joker - no joke).
which btw, cg/unit mates, py and gang and many more, wanna go for akira? $30+ per pax!
MC till wednesday! stomach flu and whats not. rest rest and more rest.
oooh! this i got to share; 2 sundays ago, pastor jo preached about prayers and i prayed about sharing the goodnews to 3 people. and i did! and im glad because, not only did it remind myself about the importance of sharing the gospel but the purpose of being a Christian in the very first place. yippe!
xmas is coming, time to taunt that fat guy down that narrow chimney with oreos and milk, in exchange for a present!

handwritten cards
i chanced upon one of the many cards that yokies wrote to me when we first became shepherd and sheep. it was a simple card saying thank you for listening to her. i recalled the days when we talked till dawn. i smiled. i know you're reading this ^^ be good ya?
i then came across livi's cards. her lovely handwriting and heartfelt words reminded me of my di days and how much i still enjoy listening to her (though most of the time im talking and she's listening) and that "wise" nod with closed eyes always made me feel better after accounting something terrible -_- oops hehehe
then it was meihwa's messy but stylo handwritten card. we're somehow very similar yet uniquely different. and i know that the cards she wrote, are never one of those last min postcard kind but those that she thought hard and thorough about what should be penned instead. and i appreciate that.
then i saw joN's. i have to admit this, she's one of the few who actually made me cry while chatting over msn. i do think of her regularly and often wonder did she ever think of me too (did you joN? did you huh?! whahaha kidding... BUT you better i tell you... =p). i still share the same heartbeat as yours.
and then came pearline's cards - with one sent all the way from down under. but honestly speaking, the best one she's sent was the msn msg during my 21st bday. i dont think we'll ever EVER forget that.
and then it was jane and shelby... let's start with jane. from her cards, its those it'syourbdaysoihavenochoicebuttowritethemkind. whahahah~ her cards are few and they speak a lot and somehow it'll always end up with the same verse acts 20:24. which i suspect that's the only verse she know =p and then's it's shelby. with one letter, she wins all with the frank words she penned down =)
oh. and those cards! from babyeee mice. im ashamed to even mention this la... she never fail to send me a bday card ever since some donkey years ago and i've yet to send her more than 5. our friendship like what she describe as 2 eyes that never see each other but know that we'll always be there. awww... =p
lastly. cards from my sister bon. every year while she was studying in britain, she'll send me 1 bday card and 1 xmas card. without fail she'll encourage and spur me on. now she's beside my room and she'll never fail to nag and heh give me bible studies on saturday night. cool huh~
many came but few have impacted me in my tertiary days. but honestly speaking, if i didnt join Hope, i wouldnt have know so many people and get to know such great people.

my sister fiona.
warning, this will be a very lengthy entry.
last night my second sister came prancing into our room and said "how come you never sms me happy birthday? yvonne smsed me. you leh?" i got out of bed, stretched my arm and said, "happy birthday" and was about to lie face down in order to ignore her and pretend that im dead so she wouldnt harass me anymore.
she grinned and before i know, it's a "iknowit'smidnightandicantellfrom
yourbloodshoteyeshowtiredyouarebutidontreallygivecarebecauseit'smybirthdayandi
wannatellyouwhathappenedjustnoweventhoughyou'reignoringmebypretendingtobedead" conversation that will sure last a long long time. oh boy, how's that for giving my sister 'face' just because it's her birthday. i'll probably strangle her if we didnt share the same parents.
so i sat up and she sat down. she took out a new phone and said, "see my new phone!" yeah i can tell its a new phone but honestly they all look the same to me. then she said, "and my new agnes b phone strap!" ok hoorays and congrats agnes b who've just earn some moolah from brand conscious pinheads. now i can sleep. (look, all those "" are really spoken and if you notice, i didnt really speak much)
and then she took out this lil box which obviously as a girl i know what that familiar lil box contains. a rock on a ring. i widen my eyes, wore my glasses and took a good look at that rock. i laughed and said "bluff one la where got so big one"
it's the size of a green pea and it's from an admirer who prob should donate the money to the SPCA instead or just save up and buy a bigger something =p. on second thoughts, how come i dont receive anything like that? muahahahaha
cut the story short, she told me that she's returning it back to the admirer and yep, i thought that was the end and it's really time to just plonk back to my pillow and say sweet dreams.
O no. she's very persistant like how she is with getting discounts and making sure that her rally driver skills are constantly on par with schumacher/alonso. she kept asking me to taste her birthday cake from canele and kept on repeating that it's a chocolate gateau cake and it's from canele and its a chocolate gateau cake and its from... yeah you get the pic.
ok ok. i got up and said i'll try a little (all these acts of obedience in hope that i'll get to bed soon but NO i failed!!) she then dragged me to tell me about where she went for her birthday and show me some pics (all these at 1am) and then her phone rang which means she'll leave me alone! hooray there is a God afterall!!! now i can really sleep.
her friend bought her something and want her to go down to collect and yadayayada... zzz and she was gone from my room and my house! hallejulah! BUT! she came back 15 mins later, crashed into my room and started her,"iknowyou'rereallytiredbutthiswillbethelastharassment
you'lleverreceivefrommeever.ipromise." yeah right. as if.
she started her where she was for the past 15 mins story and what happened there... ok again, cut the story short, she came back with many slices of cheesecakes and that was the surprise she got. ooohkays. as quick as she was doing an appearing act, she disappeared as fast she appeared. i was then finally granted a night sleep with no sudden disturbance.
moral of the story:
never ever entertain a birthday gal/boy during their birthday night. esp my sister fiona. but then again, maybe because she hit the big 3 so probably she's venting her hidden frustrations on me because she's now 20 years closer to being half a centry old. and i'm 7 years closer to 30.
ps, as much as i 'lament' on my terrible night, i still love my sister very much ^^
pics up soon!

gah. there's one hundred and one things that i wanna blog about but i just dont know where to start.
one thing for sure. God did speak to me recently. after many stubborn attempts to siam His voice, i finally turned back and said, simi la... ok i was kidding on that one. on saturday's unit fishing trip, He let in a little word, perservere. it's weird though because i always think that im very capable of surviving/shouldering the biggest hurt, the nastiest word spit or the harshest scolding. the truth is, im not. who am i kidding man, if there's any prize for the biggest loser, prob i'll get it, with distinction hahaha. anyway, yep, i thought hard and thorough about the what's in my life recently, work, social life, family and most importantly, what do i really really want in my life - am i really able to perservere through it all?
im glad. really. and this perfect song sums up my feelings too ^^
i dont wanna go - avalon
You changed my world
when You came to me
You drove a passion
in my soul down deep
Lord, to follow You in everything
i don't want to go somewhere
if i know that You're not there
cause i know that me without You, is a lie
i don't want to walk that road
be a million miles from home
cause my heart needs to be
where You are, so I don't want to go
so come whatever,
i'll stick with You,
i'll walk, You lead me,
call me crazy or a fool
for forever i promise You that
without Your touch
without your love
filling me like an ocean,
for Your grace is enough
enough for me
to never want to go somewhere
if i know that Your not there

during lunchbreak, daphne and i were gawking at a particular local A list model while she was grocery shopping. when she picked up a bittergourd, we went "ku gua!" and when she was done (we actually waited till she came out >.< ) we were gaping like 2 groupers. honestly speaking, she's a real fine thing to look at. really. toned legs, a very well proportioned body with a streamline silhouette and with that face of hers! no trace of make up at all. and the way she picked up and swing the basket spells fashionably cool. i could almost hear RuPaul's Sashay as the background music while she literally sashayed down the grocery lane. and before that we saw lum may yee. breathe takingly beautiful. no, we're not bian tais.

of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.ode to cat's tongue
i love cat's tongue
they're crunchy and yet not rough
absolutely yummy i would say
so gimme 10 boxes anyday!
slightly salted and sweet
these tongues that i'll definitely eat!
so livi dear take my hint
and please pass me the recipe ^^
livi gave me a box of biscuits made by her grand aunt. it's called cat's tongue and it takes a shape of a well, cat's tongue and it's rather thin too. i wolfed them down without a hint of guilt because... so thin what, how much fat can there be? when i passed some to my colleague, she came for seconds, thirds, and somehow, within a day, only 1/3 of the biscuit was left. bad daphne. baaad. and yesterday, we bid goodbye to the last 2 pieces. gosh i need to take a moment...

buying people gifts feels better than receiving them ^^
Acts 20:35 (the message)
... 'You're far happier giving than getting.'"
im bounded and chained by certain issues i cant let go of. i'm still learning a particular lesson that im half excited about yet finds it so hard to change. it's like a sin with clawing roots that hangs on to your every cell and to require one to pluck this sin out is like feeling the pain of your toenail extracted x n³². excruciating painful and long. and i realised that i cannot take hardship. i complain my butt off, i give up uber easily, and i rather walk away - defeated than face the music.. and that facade im constantly building, who am i bluffing?
but i still do hear God's voice calling out to me, to be strong for He is strong. to be the best, simply because He's the best, do not fear, for He's is here and lastly... to be real because He loves me for who i am.
:: amen ::

but i still do hear God's voice calling out to me, to be strong for He is strong. to be the best, simply because He's the best, do not fear, for He's is here and lastly... to be real because He loves me for who i am.

my sister taught me a small teeny eeny lesson while she treated me to crystal jade (my fav pweet²!!!) the moment my butt touches the chair, my mouth poured out countless complains about work. she interrupted me saying:"remember the verse i told you to memorise? say leh" so i did and i continued to complain. again she interuppted, saying, "remember the verse i told you to memorise? recite". this time, i understood where she was coming from. the rest of the dinner was a good. simple and sweet =) afterwhich she bought me some clothes. o, and lanterns too ha!
our relationship started way back in 2002. it's like love at first sight (cheesy i know but it's true okay~) i was searching for the one and he was there ^^ his physical appearance made me swoon. he's tanned and has rippling muscles on his fit fit bod. and he's sooo sweet! not forgetting, he's an absolute creamy dreamy hunk la! whenever i see him, i'll hold him with my hands and not let go until well, it's time to go home la. but somehow we didnt last too long together. so there i was, high and dry until a year later, he appeared and we got back again ^^ but this time its different. he suddenly vanished and no, i never saw him again. or so i thought.
i bumped into nutzi a couple of days ago. he disappeared for like 4 years and i was searching for him almost every week whenever i walk past that shop, hoping he might go back to work again. i cant blame him for that, many new faces emerge and somehow, he slowly become nonexistence. the competition is tough. he tried his best at sales but somehow it just doesnt match the rest. perhaps he needed a break. i was surprised to see him again. i smiled and i felt a smile coming from him too. we hung out together til i reached town. but this time, he's changed, he doesnt appear to have that lustre happy look he always have and somehow...he's not as creamy dreamy like i first met him 4 years ago. but it's ok because i believe he's been through a lot because competition can wear one out.

ay, like everyone, im gonna blog about anniversary, jump! and everything else ^^
HAPPY 16TH BIRTHDAY HOPE SINGAPORE!!!
from the top row to bottom:
1st row: charlie, brian, daryl, jeremy
2nd row: jinqi, wyn, vanessa, ruiz, g
3rd row: candy, celine, ting², ziying
4th row: i forgotten hers... paiseh... shirli, ruiqi, jorris
i wanna thank my image team! simply for being faithful ^^ from reaching on time, 7am! to getting our hands dirtied. we all worked hard didnt we? seeing all the leng zai and leng mui after being made up is totally exciting. doing the best for the KOG and the best at what we're at is what we do \(^o^)/
i did learn a few lessons about image during anniversary. working with people is the hardest yet the most challenging. few days to the actual day, i actually fumed over words and my perd reminded me of a prayer that i've made about, wanting to be in a ministry which i can make full use of my strengths to expand the KOG. which means challenges are not discounted. not easy really. thinking back, if im in my old shell, i'll prob scratch and claw many eyes out.
jump concert was great!!! the smoke was even greater! so much that it covered most of the screen on stage hahahah~ anyway, i really have to salute the Bangkok band. they really know how to hype up the atmosphere! i really feel like im an energizer bunny minus the drums with the non stop jumping whenever the Bangkok band is leading (our band is just as good too ^^) btw will there be a 2nd jump!?
work - d&d coming up and our theme is back to sch... many aunties in the office are so excited about wearing pinafores and tartan skirts. o, plaits too - maybe it reminds them of their once youthful days =p
just a thought:
can one claims to be concern when one hears nothing from them?

okay dokies. the past month and first 2 weeks of this month has been and will be taken up by store set ups. meaning, the whole shop is empty until we fill it with our latest collection. meaning, we'll be at the store by 9am and leave at 10pm. meaning i have been slogging like a donkey once - twice everyweek. meaning by the time i reach home... zzz
and with church anniverary preparations coming up, weeeee! i like! all the buzz and fuss and mind boggling one hundred and one things to do ^^ i really do enjoy every moment of it. thank goodness there's Ziying to bao the admin side and Ruiz to bao the chapalang side.
sunday's sermon spoke about faith.
1) my faith must go beyond my words
2) my faith must go beyond my feelings
3) my faith must be lived out
and this:
B: BASIC
I: INSTRUCTIONS
B: BEFORE
L: LEAVING
E: EARTH
Romans 12:1-2
Therefore i urge you brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrific - holy and pleasing to God - this is true worship. Do not conform yourself to the patterns of this world but be renewed by the transforming of your mind. Then you'll be able to test and approve of what God's will is. His Good, Pleasing and Perfect Will.

part 1: the size tag, skin, hair and even eyes.
heroine chic was just a phase that lasted really long when the reign of supermodels were over. the fashion industry needed something fresh and new from the usual 80's volumptuous curvy silhouette. so when kate moss appear, she hit the jackpot. i like kate moss's aesthethic sense but i think that her bowl legged skinny body looks weird compared to curvy catherine zeta jones. and i thought if a woman is a hourglass shape, which is considered beautiful so why the rise in aneroxia and bulimia? when i lost weight, someone said, eh prettier now wor~ and when i gained a LITTLE, someone called me bui liu liu -_-' im taller than average, has high metabolism rate, proudly acknowledge that i have inherited some pretty good genes too. but i hate to admit this, i still wanna slim down and reach that 5 years ago 47kg. health, vanity or the pressure to stay slim? i know my answer.
hitler uses genocide to make sure that his absurd theory of achieving the pure superior aryan race or racial subjugation is met by sieving out the hispanics, blacks, gypsies and of cos, the jews. i bet that if there were any chinese, we'll be segregated too. and those who are considered impure have their eyes injected with chemicals to change their eyes to blue and many other horrendous experiments. what's with the blonde, white skin, higher nose bridge and blue eyes? they have more fun meh? a brunette teenager decided to bleach her roots. just so that she can appear closer to "white" when she's already a white. look at beyonce and mary j blige. they're black yet becoming blonder and fairer.
chinese women are considered more beautiful - if they have creases on their eyes. that few milimeters to 1cm thick crease aka double eyelid make up the top percentage requested surgery in asia today. i cant even mutter a channel 5/8 actress with single eyelids. being chinese, most of us are destined to have slanted almond shape eyes that disappears into a line when one smile. and most chinese girls are having perpetual "SURPRISE!" expressions or even worse, force eye to look big big and poke out when they pose for a pic. i know la... to make eyes appear bigger on the pic but looking terrifically surprise all the time is rather scary if you ask me. plus all that brow raising sure causes washboard forehead when they reach 40. i like eyes that crescents, its more friendly like this ^.^ than this O.O so whats wrong with creasless eyes?
200 pounds beauty made me think twice about beauty. so if she's chubby does that means she wont find a proper society accepted status? this constant frenzy media feed has altered many minds to become aneroxic and bulimic... there's even a golden ratio of how beauty can be measured. balanced and more symmetrical looking people get better jobs, higher pay and get promoted faster. and an experiment even shows that babies prefer gazing into the eyes of cindy crawford than quasimodo.
so what's this... self hatred? and what standards are the girls conforming to? the calculations of a standard beauty that a plastic surgeon can alter OR what God sees in us? i typed this after reading this.

Faith
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
- Hebrews 11:1
For you.
Trust me.
It will happen (naturally).
Just a matter of time.
Cherish whatever there is till then.
Priceless.
Thanks Chris. i believe that was for me =)
my friend ah ying.
my bestie ah ying turns 23 today. we both made a pact that in 2 years time, we'll save up enough money to buy each other a piece of cartier and go on a trip to taiwan next year. recalling back, i dont remember how we even ended up talking. it's like im from planet g, population 1 and she, planet ying, population 1 as well. but somehow we clicked. it's a decade long friendship i have with her and im still looking forward to many many more years to come =)
my friend pearline.
it's weird how God place people in our lives. i remember how pearline and i met. we started off by talking along the streets of orchard with her back carrying me throughout an entire lane and then we're buddies next. 5 years down and we still chat over msn late at night. i remember this incident during my 21st bday whereby she called me at 3am just to talk ^^ now i dont have to wait till 3am anymore (sometimes i still do la =p) because she's coming back this nov! its time for another stayover @ g's with mayo fried rice but of cos, livi will be doing the washing this time. yeah!
i left 2 chapters including the epilogue for tmr. i cant bring myself to read it. i'll prob brawl and sobbed myself to death. oh bother, im such a nutcase.

i wasnt even finish with the first page and i was already tearing. fat salty tears. i wanted so much to cont reading but i know that i'll probably wet my pillow and be late for work tmr.
this book reminded me of how i wrote letters to my mum when she passed on. i wrote to her about my daily life and studies. i used to asked in the letters, how are you? what are you doing to telling her how much i miss her cooking. i have no idea how on earth she's gonna read them but i just believe that she will. someday. somehow.
looking back, during that whirlpool period of confusion, i couldnt understand what exactly was going on until the day i went to collect her ashes. it's like a reality check that slaps you on the face. she is simply gone. and i will never taste her cooking again. i will never get to hold her hand again and.. she will never ever come back.
it's been 5 years and her face is starting to become vague. the thing i regret most is that i cant even remember my childhood (due to epi) and i only have photographs of her to last me... i cant help but tear again. i really do miss her so much.

tissue paper.
i saw too many packets of tissue paper on tables and chairs.
O. to spare myself from typing tissue paper repeatedly, lets call em' tp.
singaporeans are the only one and only kind in the whole entire universe and probably the most unique lot who uses a pack of TP to chop seats. btw, chop is a singaporean slang for reservation. anyways, there are a few better ones who bother to cover up that kleenex with a nice wrap of sort and one creative one who uses a lighter instead of a pack of TP. nonetheless, its still a packet of TP.
you know, i really cant explain how ridiculous this whole "chop" thing is. to me, it's absolutely hilarious, to a certain extent, absurd and even shockingly unacceptable. how can?!~ i feel paiseh to be a singaporean la. lunchtime was crowded as usual and all seats are filled with (1) humans (2) TP. sigh.
one people, one nation, one singapore (how true)
thats the way that we will be forevermore (gasp! TP chopping seats forever!!!)
yesterday:
looking for props, i went to iwannagohome. i was looking around and i chanced upon many cute little printed rolls of x. inching closer at x, i find myself looking at toilet rolls. priced at $7 each. erm well, what a waste to use them that way. anyway, i saw a cereal dispenser that iwannaget @ iwannagohome!!! love that place ^^
today:
senior kwek and junior kwek held hands, coughing and wheezing together visited our family doc. my pop made me hook our fingers together to keep a secret earlier on and grinned at me. funny old man =p

it's one of those days when i want to burrow my face in my pillow and scream.
this whole week has taken a toil on me. due to F/W's latest collection presentation on thurs, i stayed back in the office till 1030pm and slept at 3am, preparing for that short 15 mins presentation. morning - left home, carrying 60 A3 sized guildline booklets and waited for a cab. and i was late for my first ever presentation for 30 full mins. and i feel like a total klutz because i just fumble and mumble through everything. friday's work wasnt any better, got reprimanded twice :(. however my gm said my presentation was rather steady...
and i was reminded that it's friday ^^ then it was time to collect that wonderful decadent, cookie crusted guanaja from rive gauche ^^ for my wonderful birthday girl babyee jaime one sihui! and huimin was there too! small gathering but it was nonetheless nice and simple. ps. i would like to take credit for that cake i introduced. and btw...
HAPPY 23RD BIRTHDAY!!!
only few friends stay and you're one of them ^^ 7 more years and we'll be 30 years old. awww, i would like us to grow fat/old/cranky/toothless together. it's been a whole torrent kaleidoscope of events but yet you're still that mighty mouse who grits through life. i salute you! *hugs*

to fellow city hall mrt passengers,
be ever thick skinned when entering a sardine packed train. just *squeeze* into which ever foot space you see for your poor tired feet. dont even care if your body is pressing against that secondary school kid who smell suspiciously nasty. foot space is equally important as "visual/body space". because once you're one foot into the carriage, most prob you'll be able to squeeze/"force" into the carriage with your calf strength.
sometimes, facial expression is needed to "force" many to move into the carriage so that the rest can move in. if all fails, say excuse me loud and clear. but take note, be polite yet firm. this particular act is a confirm guarantee space giving method. another "force" not to be reckon with.
the key here is to stand firm and not give way. because "many", well in fact most singaporeans are kiasu and kiasi. they just dont wanna take a few more steps into the middle of the carriage because 1: kiasu - must be the first to leave the carriage and 2: kiasi - scared later cannot get off the train in time.
unless you wanna WAIT somemore with many other gloomy faced passengers who prob didnt make it. otherwise remember, dont be paiseh. squeeze and you'll be able to reach home on time.
may the "force" be with you.

just imagine the below entry in the smallest font size (cant seem to type the smallest lettering though)
pastor lawrence was talking about how sometimes we have those "bad week" days? here's mine ^^ hohoho
monday/tues/wed
i do have a serious sinus problem. sometimes so bad that even im afraid that i'll get a fit. booo~
thurs:
puff pastry skin didnt rise. 'nuff said.
fri:
as one of the national day song sings; five star arising, up from the stormy sea~ i have stars (pimply ones i mean) rising too. 3 in a straight row, all sitting nicely above my lovely brows. the fourth is on the verge of shooting out, exactly where a bindi should reside and the fifth one still in making (at the nose). o boy, strawberry days are here again.
sat:
nil
sun:
left my work notes in the office. misplaced my ipod. got a huge scolding from my pop in the morning while in ss. a while later, after receiving the scolding, i received 2 apologetic smses which made me feel even worse. and i lost my water bottel too. sia la, what a morning (morning somemore).
and, to add that cherry on top of it all. i went to the bathroom wanting to wash my smelly feet. i turned on the tap and water came sprinkling down - from the top. and g got wet.
in the midst of these "farce", i got reminded of one thing. faith. because my fear level was so high, it shows how low my faith level is. but im glad, because i managed to take one step at a time to listen to God, obey Him and trust Him.
i am a instant noodle believer - i want things fast amd i try to push my limits. but perserverence and patience is something that im cultivating now. im really really glad that i got to realise this fact.
and now, do picture the below sentence in the largest font size ever.
:: God is still good ^^ ::

as one of the national day song sings; five star arising, up from the stormy sea~ i have stars (pimply ones i mean) rising too. 3 in a straight row, all sitting nicely above my lovely brows. the fourth is on the verge of shooting out, exactly where a bindi should reside and the fifth one still in making (at the nose). o boy, strawberry days are here again.
sat:
nil
sun:
left my work notes in the office. misplaced my ipod. got a huge scolding from my pop in the morning while in ss. a while later, after receiving the scolding, i received 2 apologetic smses which made me feel even worse. and i lost my water bottel too. sia la, what a morning (morning somemore).
and, to add that cherry on top of it all. i went to the bathroom wanting to wash my smelly feet. i turned on the tap and water came sprinkling down - from the top. and g got wet.
in the midst of these "farce", i got reminded of one thing. faith. because my fear level was so high, it shows how low my faith level is. but im glad, because i managed to take one step at a time to listen to God, obey Him and trust Him.
i am a instant noodle believer - i want things fast amd i try to push my limits. but perserverence and patience is something that im cultivating now. im really really glad that i got to realise this fact.
and now, do picture the below sentence in the largest font size ever.
:: God is still good ^^ ::

vol au vents (for the benefit of me not typing the full word repeatedly, lets call them V)
pastry skin? checked.
mushroom filling? checked.
sauce? checked.
and so i chopped the mushrooms, made the sauce, added in salt, pepper, garlic and basil leaves to taste. and with a final stir, i pushed the tray into the oven.
now, time to exercise my flabby arms. i took out the pastry skin from the box, sprinkled some flour and proceed to roll it flat. using the bottom of the plastic cup, i cookie cut circle base(s) for my V and stopped till i reached 30. after giving them a flour bathe, i set them aside and proceed to cut the V walls (whatever you call it). now im done with both base and walls of the V. time to to bake them ^^
when it was time to arrange them... horrors of all horrors. all my V base and walls shrank. leaving absolutely no space for the filling. wha... siansation settling in. i dont have time to re-roll the skin and i still have a tray of mushroom filling in the oven. sia la... the more i dwell in my misfortune of shrunken pastry skin, the more upset i become.
anyway, the mushroom filling didnt go to waste. we bought some baguette and made it into some kind of bruschetta. very nice wor~
thinking back... i actually got distressed by some shrunken pastry skin. o dear, how can?
time to zzz. pm and ss tmr!

reading from merv's our dear brother from my unit post about the observations of his daily bus rides makes me laugh and sometimes, i cant help but tried to observe the people around me as well.
i noticed this, and as i have mentioned; vocally, posing for photographs is one of the most spastic thing to do. you have people smiling and posing for like 10 secs or more if the photographer is not professional enough and your smile starts to crack under pressure muscle ache and once the camera clicks, its done right? nooo. what if one of the poser blinked? or apparently thinks her most of the time, females are the most ma huan one la pose/smile will turn out picture IMperfect, she'll ask for another shot those poor comrades... but to the horror or others and mine especially some will request for a *crazy* shot where people must force one somemore pose in the most candid way candid yet must pose... what the or... pose the *un zhua = what you looking at* posture/expression - maybe deep down some of us yearn to be part of the dark side. since getting into trouble in reality is not something we want, looking like one and leaving it in memory through pics is naturally the closest thing the dark side wannbe can have.

i first thought it was a symptom of dementia senile. the body aches, the frequent short term memory frustrations and those horrid nicumpoop bad direction (i lost my way thrice in 2 weeks = proving right that i have absolute no sense of direction = i am getting old, no?) incidentS. perhaps i really am suffering from, you know, DS.
ya right. im on MC la. viral infection. but the body aches actually came from saturday's bowling event and that wonderful violent game that we played (susi and i suffered many bruises \(^o^)/). fun saturday night. well spent with cg mates and another good talk to friend =)
while that explains for my body aches, i really have nothing to credit to for my really bad sense of direction. you see, i got lost in shenton way while on the way to cg, those countless times i wander under blk 123 trying to find jon's house, i walked the wrong way to/fro work; twice a day somemore at kovan (how can?! ya tell me how can.) and went to the wrong blk, wrong door for our previous cg at davyd's house. and i wonder where's next. tell me, is it me or is it a woman thing.
and i dont even wanna go near my short term memory frustrations. oh Lord... deliver me please...
this time, im really fraught.
anyway... i chanced upon a book: touch points for women. simple, applicable book. nothing wordy, just full of bible verses to inch me on!

it's friday!!!
mon - thurs : worked. met up with sheepie! ate lots of xiao long baos with chris and... i've forgotten the rest! bad memory! baaad~! (does that mean that im getting old?)
it's funny how when you realise that everything and everyone is not perfect (yes im a dreamer cum perfectionist) i'll start to get disappointed. but im sure this time i took a step forward, not allowing such thoughts to hinder my faith in God, people and situations. im not gonna throw another hissy fit saying why dont people understand me and ya i am not good enough so what, reclining to one corner and suck my thumb, no i am not. i am doing something about it.
isaiah 26:3 (NLT)
you will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you
my teevwee broke down. no more scv! how can~
when all fails (tv for this case) turn to the computer! (sia la... my comp has a huge tendency to break down lo) and if comp fails, pray (hahahah oops)

nett worth doesnt equals to self worth
that sentence by pastor jeff rang something in my brain. i see people surviving on water and bread just to buy that LV wallet. i just dont get it. why buy something for the sake of elevating one own's status? how about looking dirt poor but pocket's full of cash rather than looking expensive but pocket's holey? makes me squirm when i think about higher end sales floor staff and fake goods supporter.
i do buy designer goods BUT only when i have spare cash and only when i think it'll last me for quite some time then i'll plonk some moolah down. i never believe in buying something expensive yet starving for the sake of carrying someone else's name on myself. why huh? an yves saint laurent tshirt (lettering print only hor) cost a hefty $300, plain one somemore. i mean, unless you're some russian mogul then i think $300 is kachang puteh to you then by all means spend lo. but sigh...
my motto:
it doesnt have to be expensive as long as it's comfortable and you know how to make it look expensive.
just last week, an editor from a high end fashion mag asked me about my personal opinion of the eco friendly anya hindmarch "i am not a plastic bag". i told him one word, "ridiculous". he laughed and called mr gan (the botak hairstylist) regarding some enquires about that barf bag. we went back to the same convo and agreed on why it's so ridiculous. hello, wakey wakey, black market sells that bag for $450 when it's only $5 retail price. ya i know it is eco friendly plus it's an anya hindmarch and it's CHEAP but it's ridiculous... trendy? maybe for now la. hor?
anyway, just before cg, i met a friend for dinner. and friend, i like that pat on the shoulder ^^ enjoyed the meal a lot too.. heh the rainbow did appear la ^^
after our district sports day at kallang, we went to army market for some makan and i finally tasted those heavenly belgium liege waffles!!! for $2.50 it's quite ex la but.. it comes with your own chocolate fondue wor~ whats there to complain about? remember... NEVER WASTE YOUR MONEY ON BAD FOOD.
alrights, this saturday's my turn to participate in the district games. badminton!
i started my daniel fast today. want to experience God in another level, another measure.

y'know, God works in the most mysterious ways yet sometimes, unbelieveably beliveable.
2 weeks ago, a cab driver, uncle wilfred evangelise to me ^^ but its through his evangelism that made me realised that working doesnt stop me from committing to the great commission despite the mundane schedule and other committments. uncle wilfred said, driving a volvo (his old car) doesnt save lives as compared to being a taxi driver. i really got reminded of why im being placed on earth in the very first place.
to di2:
just last week, i was chatting with miss teng neng li. i looked through our old cg pics (of yokies, jane, ah qi and i) and wonder what went wrong, but i believe God is still in control. i have no qualms that one day, the four of us will raise our hands and worship Him together again =) it's just a matter of when. those times of bad singing during cg, laughing at each other's facial flaws, evaxing at nafa, wearing the same colour for ss and many other ridiculous nonsense, i do really miss those times we had. we're bonded together not only because we're in a cg, but the closeness in the friendship that binds us. i really do miss you all...
through work, He sieved out deeper secret thoughts that i thought i never had (in short, i found out more about myself) so that i could grow from glory to glory. He humbled me by placing me to work in a warehouse (im a pro at operating a jack!). when i was insecure about my surroundings, He showed me His unending love through my family and friends. when i was feeling weak about everything, He give me rest (literally when work ended rather early last week - i spent sometime alone reflecting and resting).
this whole entire month has been rather tough for me. i struggled to go for ss, i struggled with my sins and i struggle especially in the area of overcoming them. the struggle was so great i failed so many times that i was in this fear of back sliding any moment, anytime soon. it's funny, as much as i dislike admitting that im weak, i find it easy to admit it too. im not perfect but neither am i without hope.
in all, throughout my days as a christian, He has never left me nor forsake me. why should i give up on life when life hasnt give up on me? (no... i am not suicidal...)
like my nick, i am absolutely delighted. He takes delight in me. likewise, i take delight in Him as well ^^

i've been in a constant battle caught in between the angel and the devil on my shoulders. one tells me this while the other says another. promises and deceptions. im glad that through work, i've been experiencing a new kind of battle. work has revealed more about myself. indeed, God brings us from glory to glory, to a higher level where we can be more like Him. im trying. i am =)

aesop's the miser and his gold
a man had a huge gold nugget, which he kept hidden in a secret place. he would visit it to take it out, stroke it, and speak words of endearment to it. unfortunately, his habits were so regular that a clever thief was able to figure out his secret, and stole the nugget. when the man discovered his loss, he wept and howled so loudly that the neighbors came running. he told them of his loss.
neighbour: but what were you planning to do with the gold? were you going to invest it?
miser: oh, no. investments are too risky.
neighbour: were you then going to sell it and buy useful things?
miser: no! nothing i could buy could give me as much pleasure as my gold.
neighbour: then you have lost nothing, nothing at all. all you need to do is to find a rock the same size as your nugget, paint it with gilded paint, and carry on as before.
not quite the same as the parable of the talents but somehow i think, in a way if im not careful with how i spend my life, giftings, talents and money, everything will account to nothing.

three encounters with the one.
i had this horrid dream just a couple of nights ago.
g was crouching like a rabbit (not tiger) in fear on a tall tall chair. below the chair lies a mass of lizards. funny, the lizards were swarming around the floor yet none of them were climbing up the chair leg. anw, one of them began to climb up and the one that shall not be named because it deserves no name, is grossly corpulent, about a metre long, wears a tux minus the jacket?! and it gives an inauspicious smile. i wonder why... as the one got nearer, in sheer hysteria, i began to scream a silent scream while this fat blob gets nearer while giving that hair raising sinister smile.
i woke up at 230am to see pop and na talking. i plop back to bed and thank goodness that bad bad dream was gone.
the next morning, while reading the papers, i noticed something on the floor. argh. oscar chewed on a lizard and spit it out. i began to reflect on my dreams... maybe the lizard tuo1 mong4 to me because i can get oscar away from it. or perhaps it's the uncanny resemblance between the baby shark and the one when i was watching on discovery and they were showing how sibling rivalry between sharks happened way back in the womb. they cannibalised each other until the biggest one wins.
the last encounter. while closing the gate, the holy spirit told me to look up (i really think the HS told me to look up okay) ok so i looked up. i saw one. i pointed and i just couldnt speak. luckily jon was there to whack and step on the one with MY sandles. thank you hor. i know they're part of God's creation but they're so eeeky~ how to love such creatures?!
at least xiao qiang's less intimidating.
i had a long talk with weiling after lunch. univeral people and handling people. as much as i dak tahan acting cute. sometimes it makes my work easier. no kidding.

g was crouching like a rabbit (not tiger) in fear on a tall tall chair. below the chair lies a mass of lizards. funny, the lizards were swarming around the floor yet none of them were climbing up the chair leg. anw, one of them began to climb up and the one that shall not be named because it deserves no name, is grossly corpulent, about a metre long, wears a tux minus the jacket?! and it gives an inauspicious smile. i wonder why... as the one got nearer, in sheer hysteria, i began to scream a silent scream while this fat blob gets nearer while giving that hair raising sinister smile.
i woke up at 230am to see pop and na talking. i plop back to bed and thank goodness that bad bad dream was gone.
the next morning, while reading the papers, i noticed something on the floor. argh. oscar chewed on a lizard and spit it out. i began to reflect on my dreams... maybe the lizard tuo1 mong4 to me because i can get oscar away from it. or perhaps it's the uncanny resemblance between the baby shark and the one when i was watching on discovery and they were showing how sibling rivalry between sharks happened way back in the womb. they cannibalised each other until the biggest one wins.
the last encounter. while closing the gate, the holy spirit told me to look up (i really think the HS told me to look up okay) ok so i looked up. i saw one. i pointed and i just couldnt speak. luckily jon was there to whack and step on the one with MY sandles. thank you hor. i know they're part of God's creation but they're so eeeky~ how to love such creatures?!
at least xiao qiang's less intimidating.
i had a long talk with weiling after lunch. univeral people and handling people. as much as i dak tahan acting cute. sometimes it makes my work easier. no kidding.

im beat. 14 hours of hard work, for charles tyrwhitt's new shop at millenia walk can kill sia. tom we're setting up g2000 ladies at wisma. i think i'll develope some biceps soon. but still, im thankful for this job. being a visual merchandiser is not as easy as it sound. though of cos, the perks of getting really good discounts (dont ask me. im a loner with no friends.) and getting to shop otot since im doing shop visitations almost every week, it's more or less quite alright. but when it comes to setting up shops... zzz
alright, transformers soon! watching with both jies and jon.

nonetheless, i got to know our cg better ^^ esp e 3 hour long talk with weiling. o, and did i mention that i shared a bed with susi? and i left her with only 1/4 size of the bed to sleep with?

amazing grace
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound
that saved a wretch like me
i once was lost, but now im found
was blind, but now i see
twas grace that taught my heart to fear
and grace my fears relieved
how precious did that grace appear
the hour i first believed
my chains are gone
i've been set free
my God, my Savior has ransomed me
and like a flood His mercy reigns
unending love, Amazing grace
the Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures
the earth shall soon dissolve like snow
the sun forbear to shine
but God, Who called me here below
will be forever mine
will be forever mine
You are forever mine
:: psalm 47:6 ::

TGIF!!!
meet up with shuping and esmond for dinner ^^ kway chap for dinner, then to bubble tea hut then to supper where we had chwee kueh, stingray, herbal mutton meal. yes i agree with meimei, one word, FAT. more outings soon!king of clay - Rafael Nadal
exciting match sia. especially the second set when it's near set point. but its a pity, i guess roger federer was under tremendous pressure because a few of his shots were flying out of the court but then again, he's (1) to break grand slam champions record by winning the french open or (2) he's up against nadal OR (3) he's the top seed now so... enuff said and yep, hat trick for nadal =) clap clap
im disparaged. i have a friend who calls me a squirrel. and then he adds queen to it. im not sure whether i should be happy being called the queen of them all or upset because, im being called a squirrel.

amazing grace. i've been humming this song in my head for the past week. to remind myself that i have been saved and am victorious.
isnt it weird when people sign up for conferences like for eg, "why we intercede" and then very little people turn up for a prayer meet? it's been consistant for quite awhile now, i've been praying, enjoying my conversations with Him and occasionaly laughing my head off like last night because i asked Him a qns, how are you? have you eaten? no harm what...
im going for my sub d prayer meet later on and eating my favourite do and me fried chicken at basement cafe aka tian tang =)
o, i went for my third interview, this time under another label. everything is in God's hands. no fear!

How to identify yourself as right or left brain person:
1. Hold your hands together, as if you were praying. Look at your hands. If you see
Left thumb is below the right thumb ---> left brain
Right thumb is below the left thumb ---> right brian
2. Fold your arms in front of you (as if you are angry)
Right arm above left arm ---> left brain
Left arm above right arm ---> right brain
Based on 1+2 (order important), below is the interpretation of your personality:
Right-Left:
Considerate, traditional, indirect typeCan instinctly read other's emotion, and respond friendly by natures. Although not very into taking intiatives in moving forward, but this person will always take a step back in supporting others. Stable personality and considerate, give others a being protected feeling. But the weakness is they cannot say no; regardless how unwilling they are, they will take care of others.
Right-Right:
Loves challenges typeStraightfoward. Once they decided on one thing, will take action right away. Very curious, and love challenges. Dare to face dangers without thinking through (sometimes foolishly). Their weakness is they dont listen to others, will filter in only what whey want to hear in a conversation, and very subjective. However, because of their straightforward attitude, they tend to be fairly popular.
Left-Left:
Dedicated, cold, perfectionistVery logical in all aspects. The only way to defeat (or win over) him/her is through reasons. Has a lot of prides, and feeling strongly about doing the right thing. If they are your friends, they are very trustworthy. However, if they are your opponets, they will be very tough to deal with. Because they can be very "anal" as a perfectionist, they usually leave a bad impression of being hard to deal with when first met.
Left-Right:
Likes to take care of others, leader typeHas a cool and keen observation ability to see through situations, yet still can be considerate in others needs. Because of their cool and calm nature, and strong sense of responsibility, they tend to become head of a group. Popular among people. However, they may not be able to help themselves in meddling because they want to take care of others too much. Very concerned about how others view them, and always on alert.
im a RIGHT LEFT person.

all those presumptions should be laid out and discussed. well, settle or not, i guess when matters are not resolved and done in a "behind the back way" will soon see the light. in fact, i feel rather unjust. i feel slightly pissed off and i feel sad. there's no unity in spirit let alone speech and actions. i have lots of questions esp, those starting with why. why?
anyway, hewitt lost to nadal *yeah!* exciting match sia...
i have a piece of news for my unit/cg... we have a very cool and exciting theme for this year's camp right? therefore, the theme must be accompanied by cool and exciting moves too, no? whahahahaha you're all in for a treat.

WARNING. THIS IS REALLY NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED. IM SERIOUS.
i really wonder how God feels about animal abuse. i absolutely cannot tahan animal cruelty. i hope these people receives punishment. disembowelmention would be a good choice. evisceration too.
I SAY, BOYCOTT THE BEIJING OLYMPICS.

| Your Brain is Purple |
 Of all the brain types, yours is the most idealistic. You tend to think wild, amazing thoughts. Your dreams and fantasies are intense. Your thoughts are creative, inventive, and without boundaries. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking of fictional people and places - or a very different life for yourself. |

with all due respect. i have an unjustified dislike for a particular person. uncalled for. redundant. bo liao. i really wonder why am i such a petty person. i could well be a bumbling chicken being a victim of my own choice. perhaps im fraught. well, than again, emotionally, im an idiot. and as much as i want to drip with sarcasm at her personal expense or choose to buffer all kinds of insults on her in this blog, i guess my friend is right. why waste my breathe getting all hyped up over a start up issue so... so... insignificant?
sometimes, i need a space to vent out my thoughts. and this is my blog.
but i do apologise for my hostility...
and such frank dialogue cum entry troubles me. i need to take a moment.

"being faithful in a relationship is a MUST, not a bonus" as told by na. y'know, these excuses are somewhat like, "i never do anything that let you down what" which equals to "but i never touch the illegal drugs what". pffft. i just find that the society nowadays doesnt really regard marriage as important or as a significant union that will last for a lifetime. i went -_- when a friend told me that if it doesnt work between couples, break lo, and if marriage doesnt work, divorce lo. his face was just itching for many slaps from the rest of us i tell you.
look at what mtv is showing, i do enjoy boiling points and punk'd but those music videos showing half naked people grinding and humping just saddens me. half of their derrière exposed and sometimes you even see little children hired to lip sync the lyrics and dance/act with them in that same manner. our future will be on the hands on people who either grow up on such junk or they choose the right path. they must be taught well. and we have a role to play too.
i just bought a box of combat ant killer. and i am really REALLY pleased to see ant carcasses all over the floor. yes i am thrilled. beyond happy. there was a quivering sense of satistfaction when i see the worker ants biting the bait, carrying the poison back to their colony, distributing the poison to every single one of them. and SOON, the whole entire clan will die.
i was telling my shepherd about talents that God give us, its true, when we're not faithful to excercise it, it'll be taken away. btw, sometimes it's not such a bad thing when the things we believe in, especially if its our plans etc that are taken away because usually, they reveal the true purpose that God wants for us at the end of the day. ^^
and one of my inspiration has got to be pastor jeff, because he cant sing, cant play any musical instruments and is tone deaf as well. BUT he's a great teacher. i begin to see hope...
