Let's do it with James!

There is this ad that pictures a woman with her husband (or future husband) on the bed, and she goes
"I want to start a family"
To which her husband replies
"Let's do it with James!"

And I go "What the heck? Threesome?!"

Sigh.. my polluted mind.

Eh but you know, I was amused really. Who is James? Since when do you need a third party to do this "thing".
I guess that's the ad's intention after all but it's a bit inappropriate I think. It sort of kills the brand's image. Okay I was just spurting nonsense. I know nothin about marketing actually.

Anyway, they now come up with the sequel which I think is much better.
A girl sitting in the restroom cubicle talking to her friend who sit in the adjacent cubicle. She asks
"How could she afford going holiday?"
And her friend replies
"She is using James"

Now that gives better picture of what the ad is all about right? For many people in SG, "someone" like James is indeed needed to do all sort of things.

Hm.. onto other things. Was packing my stuff for Japan trip and gosh.. loads of stuff, like I am about to have fashion show there haha. Bought 50000 yen, hope it's enough. Bought 1 gig sd card and extra battery for my cam. Should be enough to take pic of every beautiful object I see. I am so excited that it feels like getting married ^^
Fingers and toes crossed that I will still get to see the full blossom by then. It starts on March 30. Darn.. should have travelled earlier. Was aiming for Easter holiday to cut down leave but now I'm gonna be back here before Easter.

And now a bit about yesterday's youth service. Actually it all started on Saturday night. God kept telling me "I am meant to be found. I want to be found".
It disturbed me. The thought of being a Christian for so long yet I can't really understand His burden, His heart. How often do I cry with Him, fight alongside Him? It disturbed me. What kind of lover am I?

Really had a great time with Him that night, and unexpectedly, He did it again during the youth service. That immense presence that wrap you, I just felt that I was basking in grace. I couldn't helped asking the question the psalmist asks
Who am I oh Lord, that you care so much?

Sermons and books and churches can teach us so many things, so many ways, and so many aspects of Christianity but I guess in the end it's really something personal, something only lovers can understand. Like the swordplay used by Yang Guo and Xiao LongNu.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
