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 looking forward to more journeys and more experiences.

This morning my boss called and asked if I am keen to take part in DTZ's exhibition to Jakarta. Woww.. been waiting for this call! Hope I got selected. I know there are many more experienced guys in the company but.. let's hope! ;)

Speaking of Indonesia, let me quote a man I spoke to during my Java adventure,

"Indonesia is going to become so much better SOON. This is not a 'hope so', not a probability, nor a wish. It's definitive! PASTI!"

Whatever your passport color is today, do pray for this country and its people. Don't give up.

"if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land."
2 Chronicles 7:14

Good things

Good things happen recently ^^ Not so much for me though lol. Well, my NUS fren got engaged last week. She has been with her boyfriend for quite a while. Both are genius.. congratz2... Then yesterday was the most shocking one... coz I always thought all was just jokes.. congratz to the two FA frens of me. Surely love works in the most unpredictable ways. Of course the previous couple from FA was also shocking to me for different reason haha. Anyway, glad to see them happy. I dunno if Friday's dinner is gonna be good thing but I know that this is really going nowhere. Sigh.. so it seems that we are going nowhere while the others have moved on. Anyway, was having a great FA session last night. Eve shared on how God used her the night before to help cast out demons for her friend. So she was sleeping over her friend's house, they were chatting till almost 3 AM and then the topic became serious and her friend wanted to be set free from the devil spirit inside her. At first Eve was ...

song of the phoenix

Hindarkan aku dari murkaMu ya Allah, sembunyikan aku dari geramMu yang menyala-nyala sesungguhnya dalam kesalahan aku dikandung, dan dalam pelanggaran aku diperanakkan, dan dengan dosa aku bergumul sepanjang hariku tulang-tulangku serasa remuk oleh gentar, dan hatiku sungguh hancur mengingat dukaMu jangan palingkan wajahMu ya Allah, jangan biarkan rohMu yang kudus beranjak dariku siapakah aku ya Tuhan, hingga layak akan belas kasihMu namun itu yang kupinta, kuberanikan meminta, maka dengarlah jeritku ya gunung batuku sekali lagi, ulurkan tangan kanan Mu angkatlah aku dari debu dan abu sekali lagi, hembuskan nafas hidup Mu bangkitkan aku dari jurang maut Hades nyalakan sekali lagi, api kudus Mu yang menghanguskan noda cela ku sampai habis biar sekali lagi bibir ini layak berkata, terpujilah Engkau ya Allah ku yang hidup *dari chapter 'daud dan batsyeba'
