..my battle stance..

Twenty blades. Twenty one empty cups. Twenty two dead bodies. Jiang Zhi had been standing at the middle of the restaurant hall for the last half an hour. "Something is wrong.." He had been saying the same sentence for at least five times. A sturdy man with officer uniform walked into the hall. "Everything is wrong. Before yesterday, our village had not seen any swordsman for the last twenty one years." The man was about fifty years of age. His voice was clear and commanding. He continued, "These swordsmen, they appeared out of nowhere yesterday. That was already very suspicious. But now.. their death is even more mysterious." An old man had been sitting at the corner of the hall all this while. He had now stood up and walked towards the door. "Old man Jiu, what do you think?" Jiang Zhi asked. Old man Jiu could only sighed and walked away. "Have you found any clue?" The sturdy man asked while picking up an empty cup. "Yes.. there ar

Was strolling down the street, out from the office. At one point, I noticed that there was a lady walking by my side. I took a glance and so did she. First glance. Second glance. She seemed to find me familiar. And I, inevitably, felt that she also looked familiar. Can't believe that we glanced at the same time twice but then.. Third glance. She smiled to me. And I.. had to smile in return. So this friendly looking lady indeed knew me, I thought. And she went, "IT right?" I nodded like a dumb. I used to be working in IT line but I just couldn't recall this lady. She introduced herself, "Direct sales." So tonight, 'IT' officially made acquintance with a nice lady whose name is 'Direct Sales'. 'IT' was still in daze, wondering if he had really forgotten such a friendly person. 'Direct Sales' seemed to understand this and explained "You fixed my laptop". To which 'IT' replied, "Oh.." It was getting wei

Today on my way to office, saw those ladies from the Heavenly Mother Clan. So what is this Heavenly Mother stuff? Basically they (named Church of God), believe that there is this 'hidden character' that is only revealed today, towards the Second Coming. And this hidden character is the 'Heavenly Mother'. They argue that this world's family system (dad, mum, child) is an image of heaven's family. So we know the Father, we know the Son.. then where is the Mother? The Mother, they argue, is the bride mentioned in the Revelation (diff from bride in the Gospel). So my questions were simple to the lady who approached me. 1. So will someone be saved if he doesnt know this heavenly mother? She was struggling for a while before finally saying 'No'. To which I rebuke strongly, coz this claim is definitely against many verses in the Bible. But then I suppose she can't really say 'Yes' rite? 2. The Bible says that whoever believes in Jesus will be saved.

Orang suka bilang.. "Yah gua seh support ajeh sebagai temen..." Ato... "AYoo loe pasti bisa.. " Sambil dalem atinya ngeraguin whether it is actually possible. Mungkin it sounds better than jujur bilang "Gua ga sarankan seh ituh.. " Ato... "Kaynya loe kudu lebih realistis seh." I suppose it's really better to encourage rather than discourage yah. Irregardless of perasaan ati kita sendiri. Tapi di saat kita semangatin tuh orang dan di waktu yg sama, ga rela ato ga berani untuk melangkah bareng dia, ga punya nyali untuk stand by him.. dan lebih parah lagi, ever ready to tell him "Tuh kan... benernya gua uda ngerasa emank ga mgkn sehh..." di saat dia gagal. What I call the "I told you so" brigade. Then.. I guess... Itu bener2 pathetic. Ada waktunya kita bilang "Gua support elo!" cuman di waktu kita berdua ama dia, dan di waktu kita dikelilingi orang2 yang go against him.. kita bakal turn around and say "Benernya

So the little girl is somewhat few phonecalls away from getting attached. a miss or a skip? Well.. it's a right decision.. that's all I can say.

Congratzz elsa.. for your ROM hehe!!! You said "ini lagu lu banget".. I say "cewe di klip ini.. lu banget".. Haha.. I suppose you really know me. So this song is dedicated to you ^^ ..kan bu jian ni de xiao, wo zhen me shui de zao..

-for to be modest is to know your worth but conceal it- interesting point. some people love to boast and look down on others.. while some people love to fake modesty, criticizing themselves in order to get praises from others. people say things for different reason, and some say a lot of things.. but do you really need to say anything to show that you are modest? do you even need to show that? i suppose, modesty is sometimes best described in silent assurance. *learning*

Theme song of the hugely impressive movie, Stardust. Rule the World by Take That Not many were interested in Stardust when I brought it up, so I was surprised that Ata asked me if I wanted to watch. I missed out on 'Triplet of Belleville' as well as 'Lars and the real girl', sadly. It's always difficult to find partner to watch non mainstream movies. But gladly, I watched my Stardust. Fantasy, jokers, witty lines, romance, climax, and 'happily ever after'- the movie has it all. Heard that the novel itself is even more fascinating than the condensed movie. Claire Danes's character, Yvaine, is one the most adorable fairy tale's princesses I have ever known. Can't help falling in love with her. Charlie Cox's Tristran is.. sigh.. so well developed, from a naive young boy into a dashing young man.. you can't help gasping in disbelief just like Victoria upon Tristran's return from Stormhold. And Robert de Niro is Robert de Niro.. playing a

Back from Jkt (someone pls do sumting bout the busway.. the jam was.. horrible!!).. with lotsa things to catch up with, and lotsa things on my mind. No wonder I see more grey hair sprouting on my head recently. Nyway.. glad that we (me, jend and bie, and 2 other strangers) made the trip to bandung and met Ivan. His parents were so nice and he was our host for 2 days. He surely brought us to every place we wanted to see, even in the midst of heavy rain ^^ Thanks Van.. upahmu besar di sorga =P And I like your car ^^ For the first time in almost 20 yrs.. I went to a dentist n I kinda agree now that dentists are monsters. They got so many scary tools and yukz.. but thanks God there was nothing serious with my teeth. One lesson my family is learning lately: God truly makes way when there is no way. It's just amazing how He planned everything and made sure that we will never have to worry for our daily bread. Another lesson I learn from my investment game lately: Greed kills.

is probably... a soul that love the Creator above everything, a gentle heart and a wise head that know not only what to say, but also what not to say . everything else is.. I guess... negotiable.
