Today was by no means any easy for me to get through… I stopped working at abt 1130pm…

At ard noon, things got a little heated up between my supervisor and myself and my other supervisor had to intervene later in the arvo just to calm me down… Bad stuff happens when u t pressured by 2 big deadlines…the pressure was kinda tipping point… Never felt so stressed b4…

But I had a reason to smile today… Cause I m absolutely touched by the support of my lifegrp members who invited me out for lunch and dinner to just spend time with me and take my mind off work… And then the 3 SMS from Calvin, javin and Zep…

Thank u all 4 the support…

Tartz, Ngoo, ting ting, steph, Mei, Calvin, javin, zep, Jane … Thank u all

You all gave me a reason to smile on wat is no doubt, been an unbearable week

Was just doing some reflection and pondering this morning as I woke up.

We live in a very practical world. And to some extent, we get to pick who our friends are. We avoid making friends with people whose habits or lifestyle are a little uncomfortable for us.

Even with very close friends around us, there are bound to be certain aspects of close friends that perhaps arent perfect. But who says that only perfect friends can be close friends? I know I’m a close friend to some, but I do concede that in these friendships, there are perhaps certain aspects of my life that are not too ‘comfortable’ or ‘pleasing’ with them. it could be the way I think, the way I act, my attitude and behavior towards life.

And i do admit that sometimes in such friendships, i’m afraid of losing a close friend (as like before…) because of who I am and what I do…

And a soft voice spoke into my heart as I was thinking of all these…the voice said “Love accepts the weaknesses of friends.”

What a cliche and simple line. BUt what power it wielded as this thought entered my mind.

And immediately i was directed to all the ‘flaws’ and the ‘imperfections’ of the close friends that I have.

And I realised…despite these ‘weaknesses’ in these close friends of mine, I’m close with them because I’ve made a choice to love them, and to honour them and to accept them no matter what.

I’ve chosen to let love conquer everything else….

For all are fearfully and wonderfully made.

Was looking through my photo album and i came across the rabbits that my brother and i had in Msia..well..my bro bought the rabbits for a friend at that time..but it was at our place for a few days.

there were 2 rabbits..a white one and a brown one. White one was called Cuddles and brown one was called Brownie.

I really hated Cuddles..cause it gave me so much trouble then. I remembered that I cleaned up the house one fine morning and I went to Sunway Pyramid for my usual bowling training practice. Before i left, i made sure that the rabbits were locked up properly in the cage.

When i came back home in the afternoon, as i opened the door…i saw Cuddles standing OUTSIDE the cage..and without exagerrating, Cuddles was waving at me with one of its paws (or legs or hands or watever you call that..). I dropped my bowling stuff and started to chase after Cuddles around the house but I couldnt. It ran so fast! And it kept hiding underneath the sofa where I coudlnt reach it. No matter how i cornered it or trapped it, it always slipped through my hands and legs! After 15 mins, i gave up..called my brother, told him to come home from work and catch it and lock it up.

While waiting for my bro to come home…i walked around the house and found that it had pee-ed at one corner of the kitchen, and did its big business at another spot in the kitchen!!!!!

Hated Cuddles…..it was naughty…hahahaha!

But now thinking back..i kinda miss him now….so here’s a photo of how it looked like =)

Was talking to someone from Msia who’s sitting for SPM..and here’s how he defines SPM

Stupid Paper in Msia

set by

Stupid People in Msia

done by

Smart Pupils in Msia….

And the philosophy behind SPM is

Simple, Pass, that’s all that Matters…

So here you go…SPM =)

For the record, Jun Xiong was the one who said all these..AHAHAHA

Updated a few things on my blog

(i) Updated research update.

(ii) Added songs to Hillsongs, Chris Tomlin and Worship

(iii) Added a new page: Chinese Pop Songs. Just a couple of current chinese songs that I like. ^_^ Will expand that list when i have more time..hahaha

I find it hard to concentrate at work when there’s drilling and piling going on at the construction site just beside menzies building….it nearly drove me nuts this morning when i was trying so hard to concentrate to solve a problem at work…

and then given the heat for this whole week….it’s going to be kinda unpleasant week in the office (my office has no air conditioning; only NATURAL AIR ventilation…)…=(

why dont they just tear down the whole menzies building and build a new one with air conditioning in offices?

u got to wonder..where did those money go to…..

(yea..i know some went to my pay cheque…=p)

A sentence that I recently came across: “Where are the Pauls of this generation that will confront the Peters?”

How true it is….how true….

Instead of confronting, we choose to condone.

Instead of correcting, we choose to justify.

Instead of rebuking, we choose to accept.

Instead of conviction, we choose to be double-minded.

Instead of listening, we choose to ignore.

If only the Pauls knew how to confront in love and grace and if only the Peters knew how to be humble and listen and accept…

If only we were willing to spend more time in understanding and seeking after wisdom….

If only….

Facebook is a place where I can find my history..hahaha! an ex-bowling mate recently uploaded some photos taken as the bowling team in year 2002-2003…hahaha! the memories of those competitions still remain so vivid in my mind..hahaha! Here are the photos….and oh oh..fawn if u’re reading this, actually i kinda miss the SAJC uniform..AHAHAHAHA!!!

p.s. please excuse my hairstyle then ok!

p.s.2 Click image to enlarge. Click on image to enlarge AGAIN…^_^

I had a dream last night…

I dreamt of some people whom I know…

I dreamt that they were scolding me…

I dreamt that I lost control of myself and I shouted at them, asking “What did I do wrong?”

The answer I received from the mob was shocking….

I cried in the dream…

I woke up from my dream, with tears actually in my eyes…..

Till now, I’m actually still thinking of the answers i received to my question in the dream….cause to some extent, it’s true…but to some extent, it’s also a lie…

But what really amazed me was that the crying in the dream, actually happened as soon as i woke up from the dream….
