A penny for my Thoughts

Have you ever fasted for no reason?

We always hear people say that we must always fast with a reason. Is that really true?

Today I fasted. Someone asked me why. Actually a few people asked me the same thing. I realised that I couldn't really answer them! Cos the fact is that I really don't really know why I decided to fast.

If I say I fast for the cg, ermm... not quite true. I didn't really fast because I wanna breakthrough in my spiritual life. I didn't fast for friends too. So what's the reason behind my fasting?

Well, the truth is that I felt good during fasting and that I decided to fast and also that I made a point to keep my word to fast. Is that a good enough explanation?

During service today, I just felt the love of God so tangible in the whole auditorium. It wasn't just the love of God, but the power and the presence of God. There and then, I know the reason being the fasting.

I fasted because I love Him. Can I say then that I actually fasted for God?

I'm really not too sure if I'm theologically correct. But that's what I felt. It is something like "I don't have to fast for anything. The only reason why I fast will be because I love God".

True?

I hope this isn't too hard for you, my dear reader, to understand. Its kind of deep in the spirit and I'm also trying to figure it out. But seriously, I fasted for NO PARTICULAR REASON. I just wanted to fast.

:D

Heyheyhey! I just updated my K Drama Review page. But I only managed to type in half of what I want to type cos I thought its really long and people would be tired of reading it.

Know what? I took 2hrs to type those ok. So you better read every single word. Haha! I still have a vision of being my own boss. I must remind myself to keep praying!

Anyway, I had this thought while I was giving tuition just now. All of a sudden I wanna go and learn as many different languages as possible. First on the list will be Korean, followed by Spanish, Japanese, French. Not sure what I would like to learn after French. Will probably think of it when I reach that stage. Its too much now.

Also, I've thought of what I want for my birthday. Other than a nice healthy cake, each of you who are going to buy me birthday present should take note of this: I want VCDs. Haha! First on the list is Lovers in Paris. If 10 people are going to get birthday gifts for me, then I'll have 10 vcds! YAY!

Dreaming.

Yes. Cos its almost 1am already. And I'm pretty hungry.

Good night!

Yes! It's him! I love the way he preaches.

But no, I'm not going to talk about the service today. haha... !! I'm in a cranky mode now.

Anyway, as many of you my friends know, I'm a chronic burper. I burp everywhere, anytime, anyhow.

I was on my friend's car on the way home from church just now when I started burping again. I was sitting at the back seat and Priscilla's brother was sitting just in front of me.

I burped 3 times in a row.

So he asked me why do I always burp. The thing is, I don't know why too! (Don't ask me why I don't know since I'm going to be a pharmacist ok?!!)

Anyway, I didn't really answer his question. In fact, I deviated quite a bit. I told him that my burps always comes in doublets or triplets, never in singlets.

So now my question open to all of you my readers is this:

Why do my burps never come in singlets?

Answer: Because there ain't any slippers to go with!!!

Hahaha!!! Classic or not?! I think its so funny lorh!!! HahaHAHaHA!!!!!

ok! That's the end of today's blogging. Tomorrow's combined adult cg meeting (all of Pst zhuang's adult cg). I think it's going to be exciting! have a great day!

I have decided to go Hong Kong during the December Holidays this year.

I WILL GO!

Who wants to go with me? Please leave a message on my ChatterBox k??

2 people go together will be cheaper. Hopefully can find someone's place to stay at, then I can save up on lodgings and buy more VCDs back to Singapore. HahahAHA!!

I'll probably go down to China from HK too. Depends on the time and cost. If no one goes with me, it's fine too! Cos I think it'll be infinitely cool to walk around HongKong on my own. I can take photos as much as I want to and I can go wherever I want to! I'm so excited just by thinking of it.

So if you want to go HK with me, just leave me a note!

Maybe can celebrate Christmas in HongKong. But then 我回放不下 Christmas Big Day at CHC. It'll probably be at Expo this year. And my friend has already given consideration to go Christmas service this year. How can I miss it right? Unless she goes HK with me, then I can bring her to HK church to celebrate Christmas. HahAHahaha!

Ok. Its enough. I'm getting myself excited for nothing. Anyway, I'm so jealous that my cell group member is going Korea on the 28th Aug. SO JEALOUS! Umph!! Nevermind. I believe that I'll be as rich as him, if not RICHER than him and I'll get to go Korea, Spain, Paris, Venice, China, Mission trips, Australia, New Zealand and many other places!!

I wish I'll be able to go either Spain or Venice for my honeymoon. God! Give me a rich husband! WahahAHhaa!!

感觉就像是在谈恋爱。

我爱上了一个人。
他的温柔，让我无法自拔。
他的笑容，让我有了勇气。

他是一个完美的人。。。

我们手牵着手，一起走过艰难的日子。
我累了，他就背着我，没有怨言。
很多时候我会把他给忘了。可是他还是会默默的守着我。

我想我已经开始越爱越深了。
他的爱是无法抵挡的。他的爱比任何一种爱还要深，还要刻骨铭心。
所以我更是要学习如何爱他更多。

爱上他，是我这一生最幸福的事。

I've just finished watching the VCD. VERY NICE! Hahaha.. My brother couldn't understand why my brother's girlfriend and I are so absorbed in the show. We actually stayed up the whole night watching the show last Thursday. She's more powerful than me cos she watched till 6am but I k.o-ed at 4.30am. Hahha!!

It's already 12.18am. I'm contemplating whether to put up photos today or another day. I wanna pray and then sleep. Got class tomorrow at 8am.

NEVERMIND LAH!!! I'll post some of the pictures up first.












This is Thin Yu from Myanmar. A colleague I knew from Lynk Biotech. She's a very nice and simple girl.







This is Freddy the frog. A gift from my colleagues, Grace and Sharon, also from Lynk Biotech. I was really very touched by them. :D












This is Tania with Freddy. Freddy the frog got his name because of her. Tania is the person doing experiments on mice at Lynk.











The girl in black is Sharon, the Admin and Finance Manager of Lynk Biotech as well as Medilynk. Very nice person! She drives to work everyday.










The girl in white is Grace. She's very very very cute cos she's got a very cute voice. I was more like attached under her. Sometimes I take the train with her after work too.









Last but not least, this is Pauline. She does microbial work at Lynk. She's getting married soon! And she's only one year older than me. Blessed is she! Btw, she was the one who lent me 巴黎恋人 VCD. And she loves korean shows too. Hahaha!






That's all for today! More pictures up when I got the time!

SOMEONE STOP ME!

I'm going crazy about those Korean shows. Just for your information, I'm in the process of watching this very nice Korean drama series - 巴黎恋人. Casts include Park Shin Yung, Lee Dong Gun and Kim Jung Eun.

Don't worry. I'm not going to blabber about how nice this show is. You just got to watch it!

Why does Korean shows captivate me so much? Its not exactly because of the storyline. If you watch Korean drama like I do, you'll realise that the storylines are not much different from those of Japanese or Hong Kong or Taiwanese or even Singapore's drama shows. As you watch it, you kind of know what's going to happen at the end. Its not exactly because of the casts too, though I do not deny that the Korean girls can be quite pretty and some of the guys can be quite good looking (but really, not all. Even if they are beauties, its probably artificial too.).

What captivates me most is the music and the songs behind the scenes. Every single show has its own soundtrack. This is why I like 第八号当铺 so much too. Yes, I like Alex Toh, but its not because of him that I liked the show. Its really because of the originality of the music and the songs.

Alright, back to my Korean drama series. I simply love them! The music and the vocals and the songs. Korean songs captivate my heart in a deep way. I don't understand the lyrics at all, but its the way the songs are sang and the arrangement of the songs and of course the melody. (Btw, when I listen to Korean songs, the only thing I can understand is 'sarang hae' and I'm proud of it!) Of course if one likes a song, those are usually the factors. However, the other thing about the songs and the show is that the songs are played at the right time, right moment in the different scenes in the show. The melody and the words totally captured the feelings and the mood of the scene. Accompanied by the acting of the casts, its a perfect combination.

The only thing is that one will not be able to appreciate the song if one has not yet watched the show (I realised this on the bus while travelling today. So a light bulb lights up!). But when one watched the show, one will be totally captivated in the songs. Even without watching the scenes, one will be able to feel and recall the different scenes of the show while listening to the soundtracks. To me, the feeling is there. Feelings of love, of sadness, disappointments, happiness.

I have so much to say about this. But its really late now. I haven't finished watching 巴黎恋人. I'm pregnant in my spirit with a vision and a goal. There's so much out there for me to explore, but its not the right moment to reveal it on a public blog like this (I don't mean my blog has as many visitors/readers as that of Xiaxue). Its kind of a company secret (absolutely confidential!). If it really happens, I pray it'll happen beginning of 2006, between February and March.

Pray for me, my dear friends. Pray that my vision will be clearer and pray that I'll have wisdom and strength to contain all the excitement and ideas within me. Being the naive me, I do not want to risk doing anything that has no God or the Holy Spirit in it. Thanks everybody who's praying for me!
