Being a Fan

Speaking of 'being a fan', Noriko Sakai was the one I invested in the most. Bought some CDs, photo books, posters, etc. If my brother bought Na Xie Nian CD in his trip to taiwan, I bought noriko sakai's photo books and CDs. Sadly.. I never got to meet her -__- In any case, I guess the days of filling my bedroom walls with posters are over. Nowadays.. I only wish I could meet and take picture with some of these ppl. So I kinda hope I would meet someone this year hah. Jesseca Liu being one of them. To my surprise.. her fans DID plan a gathering with her this Sat @_@ I only found out about this fan group thingy on fb tonight. Didn't even know that they exist. At first I was like.. 'Wow... this is interesting!' And then I saw the wall post on the fan t-shirt: And this cap: with the following caption: Isn't it awesome if we were to wear it together with our Fan Club Tee? Get one today! And I was like... 'Oookayy....' I'm imagining being among these fa...

Making 2012 counts

No new year resolution yet for 2012. I guess.. it's just not working for me- this resolution thingy, most of the time. But goals.. yes. hope.. yes. dream.. yes. I got big ones for 2012. And may every week of this year counts for all of us. May none of the 52 weeks be insignificant. It starts with basic thing tho. like health. Today I went to consult a chiropractor who treated my back issues more than 12 yrs ago. A bit of massage, nice cracking, and some invaluable pointers on correcting my postures, plus.. a cup of TWG tea. And there you go.. $250. -__- should've studied medicine. Health makes a big leap in terms of my personal priority. As far as worldly matter is concerned, I believe we should pay real attention to health this year :) Anyway it's 27 Jan today, it's Fann Wong and Ruby Lin's birthday hah. Almost 'met' fann wong when she appeared on CNY eve event at Chinatown. Too bad this time I don't get to share the stage with her like 12 yrs ago. But ...
the only conclusion I have after all these years is this.. we.. guys, are kinda dumb when it comes to certain 'things'. there are some gentlemen out there who qualify to be cast as disney prince but.. many of us are not. and apparently some of us remain dumb for years. a dumb, smiling, wanderer.
Sigh.. what do you do when you are not even qualified as a writer yet and you already are suffering from acute writer's block?? -____- Done with the traveling, done with some movies, still no effect.... my 'ten steps behind' is now turning into tens of thousand steps behind already :( Maybe I need to read Gu Long again.

Talk Song

I like song when it makes me cry. I like music when it makes me dreamy. In my commoner opinion, a good song has the capability to touch your heart musically and transport your mind lyrically. Saw that 'Hello, Again' jpop song by Juju on animax. It took me less than 30 seconds to like it. Just like the song ' Na xie nian' :) while na xie nian's lyric transports me to the past, 'hello, again' music (or rather, video clip) brings out my tears. Anyway, in the spirit of randomness, if you're wondering where all those HK singers are.. my cousin introduced G.E.M to us. apparently she's hot now. at one point, on stage in the midst of concert, she told her fans that she was married. To Christ. But since somehow I am not too fond of her songs (yet, I guess), let me share this song instead :D

Courageous

In a way it was not comparable to other commercial movies in the sense of scripting, acting, etc. But in a way, I suppose that's how it should be. Not over the top. Just like a sermon.. delivered in a movie format. It gotta be believable. Coz in reality our life can be quite ordinary most of the times. I think the movie truly delivered their main message, "turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers". Fatherhood is not a role where 'good enough' is good enough. a good point to ponder. And it got me thinking this question (and you may too), "if I die now, what will be my legacy?"

2012 verse x Family reunion

A short and straight forward verse of the year for me this time ard. It could have meant anything and everything tho. But if there is something I really want this year, I think it would be to see my education consultancy business takes off and even better, soars. Is there anything too hard for the Lord? The dust has finally settled now that I am back from Medan. No more hectic traveling for the next.. uhm.. 2 weeks? The wedding at Medan was pretty much a big family reunion. And I dunno about urs big family but for mine, the golden rule is to speak 'just enough to be polite' and stay out of arguments or gossips. And cold head is much needed.. I guess. Looking at the elders, I do hope when I am an old man one day, I would be a wise and sensible one. The wisest and most sensible elder I ever know in the entire big family was the one we met on our last day at Medan. At 'Taman Eden' 'resting place'. To my mum she was her beloved grand mother and mother at the same ti...

1st blog of 2012

Can't think of more innovative title heh. 11 days ago , this time, we were on our way to Taipei and we were thinking... Wow we will be traveling together for 11 days. Thats long! But apparently it wasn't that long. Not that I still have the resource to extend the trip. It's time to be back in business, back in reality. Later on the business thing. The trip was good. Probably it wasn't coincidence that my dad worked with Taiwanese for more than 10 yrs. Probably it wasn't coincidence that Taiwan was our family 1st overseas tour. And that this time, for 1st time in my life, met a pastor who prayed for us during our holiday trip. We'll see :) HK was a shopping paradise. Good to return there with thicker wallet. Thanks to rijo and our cousin for their companion. And thanks to all the 6 other dragon balls who makes this trip fun and memorable. I pray for the best of 2012 for all of you and hope we have chance for another trip in future. Maybe israel? :D On the work th...
