The Monster Called ABSD

My last deal in 2011 took place the night before the scary ABSD kicked in.
My first deal in 2013 took place the night before the even better version of ABSD kicked in.
Basically still ABSD, but bigger and more fearsome.

I was involved in a project launch at Sengkang.
It was chaotic. Everyone fighting to enter the show flat and get their hands on the property they wanted.
Coz by today ABSD version 2 effect would have kicked in.
There were loud verbal fights, there were women screaming ( I dunno whether they got pushed or what lah ).
People were at their barbaric best. It was the scene of capitalist society. 
But I am glad my client was well mannered. Thank God.. pheww...

Seriously.. people would have thought it was LV selling at Export (merek tas sekolah Indo buat yg ga tau) price kinda sale.
Or there was a naked Just In Bie Beer inside. Well.. You got the picture.
I left the place at 4 AM. and people were still there.

Yeah so 2013 has been kinda.. like.. wow.. I am speechless.

One thing for sure.
This monster no longer scared me the way it did.
It might be a version 2.
But so am I.

For the old has gone and the new has come.
that's the mantra of the season.

I simply believe that God crowns this year with goodness upon goodness, wonder upon wonder. #Jesus

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'

Ichi Rittoru no Namida

As Aya's condition gradually worsen, she could no longer walk or stand anymore. She would sometimes choke when she eat and she struggled to speak. There was only one thing that she could do, albeit which much difficulty. She could still write. One day her mum visited her at the hospital and seeing her struggling hard to write her diary, her mum asked her to rest. But she said.. "Okaasan.. you said that I can still write right? That's the only thing that I could still do. I have to write what I have in mind now because that is the only prove that I am living today." Even when she could hardly hold her crayon, she would still write her diary. I do not know whether the movie followed the true diary content but in the movie.. Despite the diary began with her questioning why she had to be the one to suffer from this cruel disease, it sweetly ended with a word: "Arigatou". Thanking her parents and siblings for being there right to the end, thanking her friends for...
