..my battle stance..

Am watching this chinese movie on channel 8.. where Louis Ko is the supercop with impotence problem and most important is.. got my sweetie pie Charlene Choi there. So towards the end.. Louis Ko asked Sammy Cheng, "do you mind to be with someone who is unable to satisfy you?" (because Sammy is one of those sexually active ladies).. to which Sammy replied in tears, "i only want a boyfriend who teaches me how to cross the street.. because i do not know which direction to take" (because Louis, the cop, once taught her how to safely cross the street). I dunno.. just love that part. Came back from watching Changeling.. a very good human drama. The night before.. we watched Ponyo.. an entertaining no-brainer anime, cutely hand-drawn. This morning? Ehem.. I decided to do something foolish.. Maybe being a lil more foolish will bring me closer to destiny. So i went for SIA steward walk-in interview LOL. So let me share with you what went on. Starting with the most important t...

have been using msn messenger for the last 8-9 years. when it all began, thinking of the 'personal message' was a lot of fun. a lot of emotion goes to some of the messages written. but for the last 1-2 years, i am not sure if there was anything i really want to type, down there, emotionally. maybe because everything i ever needed or wanted to say, has been said. you just reach this point where.. you are just done. even firely.. is no longer needed.

Sometimes I imagine walking this life with songs playing in the background, just like how they have it in the movies. Got my haircut today.. met with Caely again ^^ The more I look at her, the prettier she gets hoho. She is friendly today, and smiles a lot. =) She must be the most beautiful stranger I have ever known. Hm... I wonder if...

yeah.. be back to jakarta next mon! i wish i could be back for 1 month, but some commitments i have here means that 2 weeks is already long enough. well, it still feels good, finally it feels good again, to be able to return home and stay there for a longer while. i am not sure if i am ready for jakarta in permanent terms, but.. let's see how the 2 weeks turn out.

thank God! after moving house twice in the last 20 months, i was quite tired of moving. our braddell house may not be the best home i had (river valley is still my best), but it is the 2nd best home i have had. so i was hoping to stay on, despite the fact that we will be without devi ( we miss you girl!! it is less lively here ^^). but God sends new secret member heh. and i was hoping for a reduced rent. so i spoke to our owner. amazing she told me that before i called, she already had a thought that i would ask for the exact amount i was asking. no hard bargain or anything.. she agreed to the new rent. yeah! one of my unofficial resolutions this year, is to wisely throw myself into situations where my faith is put into test. for one reason or another, extending our contract for another year is one of such situations.

No the title has nothing to do with Beyonce's song =P I just thought the song was good.. catching her singing in the ellen show (who i think is more comfortable to watch, compares to Oprah). Well mamita is.. a lady who comes to our house now and then to do housekeeping. i am not sure why i decide to write this. probably it's the impressively neat room of ours that inspires me. for those who have been to braddell.. they know how messy me and my brothers are. but no matter how messy we would get, mamita will take care of it. she has never failed, not even once.. to change our disaster room into a decent one. maybe that's the gift of a woman. but i am pretty sure that we have never had such an incredible housekeeper like her. for a start.. she stays in private condo while we stay in hdb ^^ and secondly.. she is honest. when my life ends.. i would think of amazing people God has allows me to meet. like my family. and some of my NUS friends.. and mamita. she oft reminds me of ho...

For a 2 hours and 45 mins movie, Australia was engaging enough to keep myself interested, without being absorbed. Good casts, nice sceneries, and interesting characters. The main issue was not love between Hugh Jackman and Nicole Kidman. The main issue was the Aborigin. Race. Difference. Respect. The message is this: you do not overcome racial differences by 'assimilating' the different cultures. when you practice 'assimilation', the dominating race will inevitably push it to the minority to accept their culture. and it won't work. you overcome the difference by acknowledging that indeed.. we are different. there is no need to pretend that 'we are all the same'. we are not. and because we are not.. we should learn not to force others to accept our ideas. we learn to respect them. but humans are proven to be slow to accept this. the Australian government only made their official apology to the Aborigin in 2008. and that's only the government.. what about ...

And God is able to make all grace (every favor and [a]earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need [b]be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation].- 2 Cor 9:8 AMENNNNN to that Jesus! Thank You for the promise.
