Yeah! back again! Hopefully can be consistent so that this blog will not die! Anyways, I just want to thank god for the fellowship we had just now! the Sentosa trip! very fun too! and most of us turn black and red..Photo grab from Yi Hao in Facebook.
Haha, though we didn't do much of the time following through the games which are planned, least all of us enjoyed it amen? Despite quite a few mini arguements of sand splashing, we still made it back together and enjoy one another!
After swimming, we head back to Vivo to eat! enjoyed our dinner. and walk around vivo city. which we become stuck at Candy Empire, static-ing people =P. Static Empire -Samuel Lim. hahah! Then we do window shopping and continued walking! then head home.
However, for me, going home wasn't all good though cause, I made my mom worried by leaving my phone silent and she is unable to reach me. Well, I thought it may be nothing much, until I place myself into my shoe. what happens when you are unable to contact your love onces and remained alone at home for about 10hours without any news, well, returning home 11 and without accounting to my mom since 12 oclock. Well, I apologized and my mom forgave me. but when she noticed I have sunburn she took the cream and apply for me and I was just staring at her face.
Then I noticed that, we really should appreciate our parents too. its quite cliche but..really! sometimes God is like that, He scolds, he rebukes, he punish, but ultimately,why? because He love us! So I also want to thank god for my mom. =)
Then while plurking if you know what it is, something similar to tweeter( correct spelling I guess? ) I was just responding at my sheep's plurk since a few of his friends were like responding & spamming badly..So..
Legend in Plurk..:
The P = Prana
Ikanaide = Marcus
Quote:
The P says: oi oi becareful hor, he is mine!
The P says: lol sounds wrong
Ikanaide says: LOL !! im your sheep ... so it dosent sounds wrong
The P feels: *Touched!
At that moment, receiving that reply really touches me alot! thats is one of the sweetest thing a shepherd can receive! Well, you gotta be a shepherd to understand what I mean! Amen?
So I give thanks! and I gotta go! Nights =)

Hey, Back again, I am just gonna make it short. today, went to school for remedial, However, I was LATE! ( cause when I woke up, I went to sleep again.) oh dear, but thank God only got a small nag by my teacher. then lessons goes on as per normal until school ends. head home, to slack. Intend to go Vylan house watch movie. but ended up its only decided at 4.30pm cause no reply etc..And there was only the 4 of us..Originally, I really wanted to just slack at home..plus at home I can play games! but oh well, thank god that He reminded me about yesterday, that probably it may be a waste of time, but what matters is when we step out of our comfort zone to do so! So we watched ( Qian Bu Gou Yong 2 Direct Translation - Money Not Enough To Use 2) which I watch before! oh well..Truly the movies and transport doesn't matter but its as simple as a small time to spend time with each other! after that went to eat, and head home.
Upon reaching home, good news! my class mate asked me to play Dota with him! and my other class mate too! but oh well, I thought this would be a good chance to get to know my friends more and to play also la! however, the game didn't turned out well though..lost the fight and whats worst, I feel a small bit of upset or probably unhappy I don't know but all I know it doesn't felt comfortable and happy.
I thought like why, well! firstly because, there is not much relationships between us, compared to playing with my care group, we lose, we rejoice on our defeat because its a good game, and if we win, we rejoice on our victory! and when I played just now. it felt like a cold ending. whether winning or losing.
Therefore, a game is just a game! in the end, all goes back into the box! all will return to usual when the game is quit! but what truly matters is, have we changed our perspective to look and work More* on what really last? yeah amen? I gotta go off first! Nights! :)

Hey, seems like I been getting lazy to blog..better be consistent soon..! Today, Go to school from 8 to 12, studied new chapters for next year. then head home to slack..for awhile before being pestered by Andrew asking me to join him in cycling..
Well, some thing which God reminded me, actually though I like to cycle, it was firstly, raining, I wanted to save up, no one else is coming other than the both of us, my old contact just wanted me to play DotA with him which I can kill 2 birds with one stone ( For I wanted to play & sow at the same time ) however, I thought that, if I am able to out of my comfort, accompany Andrew again* he will learn to do so to others as well!
Just to summarize quickly on that one, as I am typing out, what God reminded me was the previous Podcast teaching which I watched, which is about something about investing our time. by Pastor Wayne from New Hope Oahu
"One day, there is a father who had a son, and he is having a tough time for his work and other commitments. however, he thought that, He should once accompany his son to go fishing together despite he doesn't want to do so in the first place but the son really enjoy fishing a lot still he decide to do so. On that day,after they had went fishing together, that night father who had a personal journal was writing down on how his day, and a son who also had a personal journal was doing the same. however, they were on separate rooms. What was written in his Father's Journal was " Fishing with my son today; a waste of time" but what was written on his Son's Journal was " Fishing with my dad today, the best day of my life"
When God reminded me about this that in the same way, despite all the trouble, all the effort, the blood and sweat, the wrestling we gone through with God, Its all worth it. when you see that, the people around you having their lives being touched and changed. its truly worth it. =)
Even if it as simple as, riding bicycle with my sheep-mate. Hahaha!
by the way he said he is gonna pay be half price for the bike! ( Before that he was pestering me AND Pleasing me just to accompany him to cycle) after that he abandoned me to return the bike myself! =(
However, I am assured that, he will really see the significant that spending out of the comfort zone is where it begins. even if it as simple as stepping out of a comfort zone to accompany some one even if You DON"T WANT it. =)
So after cycling, rush to Mac to have dinner with the Godly Younger* Man! including Led by Qing. Yeah man! our Younger Man of God is gonna shine Amen? for the Godly Young* Man to Rot and for the Godly Younger* Man to Shine! =P just kidding! haha! Our Group will grow!
Amen! =). Nights!

Yeah! I am back in Singapore! Wow, the whole trip is really fun! at the same time, its like my dream land, and when I am back in Singapore, This is reality. Anyways, there are few things I wanna take down these few days,
Start out by Wednesday, something amazing happen! I checked a lot of scripts, and the good news, I passed all! except for chemistry ( but science can make it since covered by physics which do quite well! and mother tongue not sure yet..OH the most important of all, Maths in my class has 3 passes ONLY! at first I was really losing faith since only 3 pass are like my class mates who are more Zai at maths turn out that, I PASSED 40/80 on the spot! you know how? I also don't know! HAHA! well, firstly few weeks ago when I did my test, I didn't complete one question in section B which holds 14 marks which means I am only left with 66 marks left..plus careless mistakes, 60% i will likely to fail..well basically, its impossible for me to pass, and God did it! Wow, throughout the whole lesson I was like, stunned and amazed that, this is truly not by me, not by my brains nor hands, but by God who performed this miracle in this lesson!
After school, I rushed home get changed then go airport! finally! then after that went of straight to my my aunt and my uncle wedding anniversary! enjoyed good food and meet old relatives haha..then the whole thing continues till I reached home and the next day begins.
Normal stuffs and went out to do some shopping before my grandma's big birthday celebration.
another thing that God really blessed me was, me & my sis was chosen by my dad is sing for my grandma's celebration and guess what? it will begin in hours, and we haven't even decided on the song..wow..trouble huh?so my sis and I agreed, we just do what we can and quickly chiong to prep and ended up when it started we haven't even prep properly..so since there was a keyboardist so bo bian..just pick one song and sing together with my sis, and my cousin came along to help. picked "you raise me up" pretty common song I believe? What happen was, me my sis and my cousin just sang what we can and ended up, It was a SUCCESS! HOW??? I also don't know again. HAHA!
Many said that we can sing but to my sis I won't be surprised la but when many relatives say I can sing I was literally WOWED! Me can sing? what? that never happen before! but this is truly God, because just now,my sis and we prayed for it before and we did what we can, and God helped us with what we can to make it a success! probably the holy spirit change my voice haha!
But through this I really thank god for it! and the whole thing was an enjoyable fellowship with the whole family and I also want to thank god for my grandma!
Summarizing the few days something which I learn.
The following few days, go shopping, new clothes, brought home old clothes also, ate indo food ( Yummy!) I go out so often that I have sooo..little time to practice drum..probably only few hours..T_T but thank god cause when I played I got my coordinating right! played lesser games, I was actually just savoring the moment of being in Indo. its just very enjoyable. even if its as simple as going mall with my family.
Few days ago, I was just reading Wild At Heart, I was remembering the means of being Dangerous and Adventurous, truly Christian men are BORED! the real adventure comes not when we go to real war, but when we choose to begin by stepping out of comfort zone situations for God!
Yesterday afternoon, another cousin came to visit us and I just realised that, I become an uncle le! I got a nephew wow! haha, so we are just like looking at the baby and stuff then it started crying as usual...that is what babies do right? suddenly my cousin just said " oh he is tired and wants to sleep " so my cousin carried him and just sway and tap him and he really kept quiet and go to sleep! at first I was a bit surprised! how do you know if a baby's cry? do my cousin speak baby language? nope! no one knows a baby better than their parents! interesting isn't it!
Then on the night time, I watched a recording of a conference of a pastor in Australia which my brother went to. He was just so called performing like the scene of Job. other than finding the whole performance interesting, what taught me was the heart of integrity that Job has. [ Job 1:6-22 ] read it and truly this should be the heart that we have.
I really enjoyed the whole trip, It really have drawn me closer to god. Well, I knew that when I return, things gonna get started! and I need to start serving, but I the most important thing is, again, being dangerous and adventurous does not require war, but stepping out of the comfort zone should be where we go! My studies getting heavier, more people to take care, admin things to work on. outreaching, and more and more these are endless! but truly! I have God with me!
What else do I need? Amen!?

Yeah! Exams Are OVER!!! Hohoho!!! I am free!!! my exams ended today!!! So after papers, head home. Used computer for awhile then, my mom offered if I want to join her and my bro to go out. so alright better than slacking at home! so I went out with them to Vivo city..then accompany my brother do some shopping while my mom head somewhere else around vivo to buy her own stuffs..
After a hard time running from shops to shops and back to shops again, finally bought new clothes, muahaha! but I gotta pay for my own though +_+. so no more spending unnesscessarily gotta spend wisely! Then walk up and down around..again..and finally reach the MRT..so my mom head home while me and my bro go find my sis to go Far East for some more shopping..
Then after the short trip, reached far east and meet my sis to hang around, Up and Down again..still found some stuffs my brother needed, then we were walking up the top floor of the building when we noticed that the top floor is all the places for people to eat like small food court like that..so my bro wanted to go down and look around somewhere else, when suddenly I just felt the prompting to continue exploring the whole floor..and so we agreed and continue to look around..when we stumbled upon a Christian Bookstore. So we entered and have a look around..
then suddenly, the music which the store is playing, catches my attention.
Its You Are Everything - By Matthew West, Enjoy!
This song really encourages me a lot that God is really EVERYTHING, What I wanted, What I needed, What I live for..words just fail to express, but God is truly EVERYTHING and everyday my life is really filled with hope every moment I know he is there with me. Hope you are encouraged too! By the way this is the first time I hear this song! so as I think through just now that incident, I know that, Its not a coincidence in that prompting to continue exploring the whole floor of Far East but its an encouragement that God wants to give me.
So after that I head off down to continue my shopping with my bro! head around Wisma, Back and forth to Taka, here and there till finally shop a few more and head home, and back here I am! Thank God For God! =) Amen! I gotta go first! Nights!
