Philio

love couldn't have been the reason for it to begin. whatever it is.. it could not have been love because love can't 'just happen'. a perfect chemistry reaction could not have done it either. so when the 'honeymoon' was over, and you lost that fairy tale moment.. love is not the culprit, for love isn't fairy tale to begin with but we are trying, and learning, hoping to grasp a better idea of it that when we stand together at the end of it all we know it is because of love

Now this is familiar..

maybe it's just me.. coz i never really watched 8 Miles. but when I watched it again tonite, I notice a rap song that was actually taken from the song above.. that is actually... the origin of a rap we used in bible camp with Mr Long. Oh my..

UP!!!

hah.. a fitting title for a bible camp weekend. though my last camp was 2 yrs ago. true to its theme, this year's camp is held at JB, which is UP there, rather than the usual East Coast which is down here. pretty excited too with a lot of changes I experience in terms of my property business. after 2-3 years of focusing in Singapore residential property market, I begin to acquire interest in overseas property. KL, Bali, and Melbourne are attractive. For Bali, I was offered a condotel at Seminyak area, managed by Harris Hotel. Haven't decided yet. As for today, we are visiting Philippines property exhibition. Asked Dave, my SOM friend from Manila, and he told me the projects are good ones. Woww... I got good feeling for Manila. Not prophesy lah.. but just.. good feeling. and price starts from 65k SGD :D :D :D ngilerrrr ^^ Rite.. bring it on. the adventure is UP there!!!

A Chinese Odissey

This is one of my favorite Stephen Chow's movies. Loosely based on 'Journey to the west' novel, it's a hilarious mo lei tau comedy, a trademark genre of Chow's movies. And of course, it stars Athena Chu, who was my favorite HK actress. Athena was always exceptionally charming in a period drama costume. And only now I know that she used to date Stephen Chow =D No wonder.. While my dad could boast that they got Bruce Lee in their era, we could probably boast that we got Stephen Chow in ours. maybe this generation could boast about Justin Bibir. If we assume that man's life span is 80 yrs, I'm almost half the journey. Interesting to find out what adventure awaits at the other half. In any case.. we've got no time to waste. That's why I believe I should see as much as I can, draw inspiration from as many source, as many place, as many culture as possible. After the adventure with Andreas to East Java (so grateful for Cuy and Wan's kindness), I am loo...
the key doesn't lie solely on whether or not you put your best effort. it also lie on whether or not you believe that the other party also put his/her best effort.

Let us think

A: Jesus loves you. He died for u. B: Did He die for my dad too? A: Of course He did! B: But my dad doesn't believe in Him. A: Just pray for him.. God will open his heart. B: But my dad died two days ago. A: ... B: Can he go to heaven? A: ... What will your reply be if you were A? Yes? No? Dunno? There are dozens of other scenario where we come across complex issue of Christianity. Even on salvation alone, there can be so many tough questions even the most brilliant theologists find difficult to answer. And besides that, there is also issue of Holy Spirit, speaking in tongue, prophecy, trinity, rapture, etc. But we.. the 'charismatic' Christians, tend to either avoid these issues or we simply subscribe to whatever our Pastor tells us. One of my Tung Ling friends, in commenting on "Apologetics", said: "I dunno. Thinking is not for me. I can do the talking. Not the thinking" in church like ours, such 'complex issues' are deemed unimportant. What...
