unfruitful

May 17, 2007

I’m a proud owner of a Samsung 20″ Widescreen monitor! Really a no-choice buy. Haha. Pardon my messy table. But I tell you this panel is a monster. I almost got a 22″ but I was really afraid it may get too big for the family. This baby will get some time to get used to.

Was on off today, very reluctantly given off-day. But seriously I see no point in staying back as there is TOTALLY nothing to do as boss didn’t give any instructions to do it whatsoever! And taking the initiative may get an unpleasant experience after all. That’s the organisation – cannot stand it at all and I can’t wait to leave. 3 more months to be exact!

Went back to Gongshang Pri. today to facilitate a workshop for Community Services. It was reasonably okay but a tad too long. Students weren’t that mischievous but wasn’t that great either. But it was an enriching experience – I learnt something out of it as well. I rushed off to meet Tiffanie after that at Queenstown to have meepok – she said she had a craving for it – so we went for it. Sadly she is leaving for Australia later in the evening. I love mee-pok with ketchup and loads and loads of ketchup. Sadly no pictures! bah..

Braved the rain to go to Funan to collect my free anti-virus software which I don’t need – but I thought, whatever just settle all these menial tasks in one day so I dont have to worry. Who knows that I require some cutout from the box to redeem! Totally wasted my trip down there. Then bus-ed down to Bishan to get some from funkyb, guess what. They don’t have the shirt that I want, and it will only ship in in 6 weeks time, another wasted trip so I bought a black tee – pretty nice – at 28 bucks.

Quarreled with mom earlier on, seriously don’t know my mistake and she went hysterical. Sigh. I’ve been praying for the family and I read Reinhaard Bonkke’s testimony about his brother being saved and it brought tears to my eyes.

As much as I dread it, I’ve to return to camp now. The sgt major wants to see me tomorrow. Till the weekend. Cya

walk by faith

February 25, 2007

I’m back after a long break. Chinese New Year this year is wee too quiet. Not the usual as it is in previous years. Maybe it’s the passing on of grandma last year. How fast time flies.

6 more months left in the army I’m glad that it is pretty relaxed now. But somehow I’m worried about the university admission. I really don’t know why. Maybe my faith has wiltered over the long exercise and break. Worst part of all, I was sick on the second day on CNY. It didn’t make any thing better. Flu was on and off. In fact going out kinda made me feel better. Of course the step of faith by not taking medicine. Anyway the medicine didn’t help. Haha!
Shared in cell over the weekend. Yeah, it was hard when you need some refreshing yourself but God is faithful. And I’m grossed out by McDonald’s Fillet O’ Fish. Was out for dinner with the rest of the cell. The rest all went home. It’s sooo small and pathetically sized. Like how Alethia said – 1 bite for one dollar. I finished the burger in 4 bites. We scribbled on the box itself. So hilarious. haha. The meal cost 4 bucks. Boycott Mac!

Alethia comparing it with the curry sauce.. and belle turns away in DISGUST. HAHA

Went for first service and it was powerful really. Pst Yang preached during third service today. Was good. Like how Pst Daniel said it is very stale, I can’t disagree. But it’s time to move on for God’s outpouring.
Was out taking fireworks on the second day of CNY with Vincent. Some pictures! All shots were taking on handheld! And thanks to jeiwern and faye for having me over during cny

Signing off. Range next week! I’m the detailing IC. So I go FIRST! haha

finally over

February 13, 2007

I’m back! From that 8 days of gruelling exercise! It’s great. 7 days without a bath and in the same uniform! The smell was… gross. Haha! Seriously, after the 6th day we could bathe. And there is a difference in the people who went to bathe and didn’t. I kinda couldn’t take the stinkiness anymore – so i went on to take a good bath at 2am in the morning on the 7th day. Haha!

4 days of ‘war’. The most memorable sight was when I was at the back of the Chinook with another bird flying closer behind. Both choppers were skirting around the border. The HDB flats on the horizon. Beautiful. It was a crazy night that day. Really. The feeling was amazing when the comms was through after a gruelling walk a contour.

I’m glad it was over. You know God was with me through out. I know it. And He is changing me. A new season has begun. A new season of trust. Emmanuel, meant, God with us.” I know He is always with me.

After a weekend of ministry work and back at my second home (church).. God was speaking as always. Really treasure the times when He speaks to me. I treated myself to a new CD. woohoo! Paul Baloche – A Greater Song!

It finally rained today. Did catch up with old friends Vivocity. Met Janice (whom I haven’t seen since Feb 3 years ago), Pam and Ruth. Had a good chat and dinner at Marche. Boy the food was disappointing. No crepe was bad.. service and variety was worse. bleh! Went to Ben and Jerry’s for dessert. 6 scoops of icecream + waffle + bananas + brownies + toppings = foodie’s favorite. Cannot hiam anymore! Brilliant stuff! : )

Now to bed for a long day tomorrow. 6 more months to ORD! Cant wait!

Faith is all I need

Some pictures to savor after a good weekend..

The trip to church in the wee hours..I love the serenity.. really. Jesus does do all things well..
