American Idol contestant ever... in my opinion, I kind of reluctantly admit.. is this guy. And here's another nice clip -> CLICK

I love.. I love... this song!! I know.. I know.. ni shi wo de OK-Beng zai mei yi ge shi hou! *some familiar tune in the song.. but can't figure out what's the original song

I will embrace Law.. only because it perfects my understanding of the importance of Christ. I will embrace Grace.. only because it enables me to be worthy to follow Christ. Those who try to keep their salvation by observing the Law.. are missing the point.. the whole point.. of the Cross. Those who claim to be covered by grace.. without even fully understanding the purpose.. will never truly appreciate grace. While Law is very human.. easily understood. Grace is heavenly.. impossible to comprehend. And yet.. at the centre of all this.. is the Cross. At the centre of all this.. is Christ. Be it prosperity gospel, be it gospel of grace, be it the Law.. if it causes Christ to be placed at the centre of our life.. I say.. embrace it. But if it cause that very doctrine to be placed at the centre of our life.. I say.. spit it out. Take up the cross instead. No matter how good the new teaching we get.. no matter how many verse is used, how much Greeks and Hebrews and speaking in tongue involv...

When everything and everyone Wants a piece of you...

the pastel colored sky, and the lazy fat cat... they remind me of the warm smile of my princess of dawn =)

I came across this interesting person's site: www.scotthyoung.com And I kind of like one of the points he raised, in his take on the three aspects to financial freedom. Let me just brutally copy and paste his writing here: A Low Poverty Threshold The poverty threshold is a term I use to describe the minimum amount of money you need to enjoy a comfortable life. Some people require $70,000 per year for comfort. Other people need less than $10,000. A low poverty threshold means you could be perfectly content with a bare minimum of material conveniences. If all your savings were stripped from you, and your income was reduced by 80%, could you still enjoy yourself? Or would you be miserable having to adjust to a lower level of income. Your poverty threshold is psychological. It’s not about actually having to survive poverty. Having a low threshold simply means you’d be willing to sacrifice more to make bigger changes. For example, iimagine your poverty threshold was roughly $50,000 per ...

Woo.. For some inexplicable reason.. This is one of my favorite wuxia OST of all time. I also dunno why.. But glad to find it in youtube. They don't make proper wuxia series anymore nowadays. Even if there is.. it is like 1 title for the last 3 years.

When men gets older, they get to know more things, and thus they could talk more and longer, sounds wiser, and yet.. they get to do less things. they have lesser courage to take risks. Just spend an hour in a crowded coffee shop. If we are lucky, we will listen to some interesting conversation among some knowledgeable ah peks.. who seems to know it all. But that's what they do.. they watch, they criticise, they watch, they talk. You ask them to try something.. they will give you all their 'risk analysis' and tell you.. "Cannot do one lah.. it's too risky!" and when a courageous young man tries and fails.. they tell you.. "Told you so.. where got so easy?" I am really worried that we are heading there. I hope and try not to. Maybe that's how Coral comes about. Instead of watching how the car COE rises.. complain about it.. predict when it will come down, bla bla bla.. I just listen to the heart.. and go for it. And ask God to provide for me.. make...

Sellers are getting greedier, buyers are living in the past. Some expect tough times ahead. But I can't afford to do so. Because my Father is greater than all these. And because I am carrying His genes of greatness. I don't have the luxury to sit back and give up. The only option I have.. is to relentlessly pursue.. and relentlessly trust in my Banner of Victory. Because my Father.. He makes no provision for failure.

'the scene that leaves me with deepest impression' A good title (that brought up some laughter when I bought the tic with ika today).. and what a dragon.. what a movie. Love it! To begin with.. it got vikings.. those crazy folks.. they remind me of Asterix and Obelix. Love them! The battle crazy vikings. And it got a cool dragon nicknamed the night fury.. aka.. 'toothless'. And it got a lot of brilliant ideas.. packed into an entertaining 98 minutes show. When was the last time I felt this satisfied watching a movie? Was it 'Cloudy with a chance of meatball'?

No matter how hard a man try, no matter how smart he could ever be, there is nothing he can do apart from You.. and nothing would ever prosper apart from You.. Yesus pokok.. dan kitalah carangnya.. tinggalah didalamNya.. pastilah.. kau akan.. berbuah... Thank you Jesus.. for your grace tonight.. as I am humbled again by your steadfast love. my Lord.. Immanuel..

it doesn't feel the same without your laughter filling the air i am breathing something is missing without your presence filling the space beside me.

OMG.. its Suntec!

and it's all quiet.. it's all silent.. words are slowly vanishing.. life.. it sparks.. in its beautifully wordless way.. and love.. it grows.. in its trustfully wordless form.. words are losing their purpose.. when everything is understood.

"there are things that man has to do, even if he doesn't want to. there are things that man must not do, even if he wants to." gu long

Ah.. the memories.. Love keeps lifting me higheerrr!!

God reminds me today.. as I was enjoying my worship time, singing, and talking to Him.. that He is the God who never stop and never quit working in our lives. Even on days when we don't seem to accomplish anything significant, or days when we had been running around like headless chicken with no result.. or days when everything just seem to work against us. Even on such days.. Up above.. deep inside.. God is working silently.. patiently.. masterfully.. His masterful creative hands continues to shape us.. His watchful loving eyes continue to watch over us.. And occasionally, He would nod and think.. "This is good.. very good" That's God.. that's how he think of us.. His children who love him. He only think of good stuff, best stuff.. and no work of man could undo his plan. Even on days when we feel like giving up praying.. I believe that up above.. deep inside.. He is working on our prayer.. on schedule to deliver.. an answer far above what we could ever imagine or...

Just realised that my movie consumption has been quite low for the last 1 month. And not many "Slumdog Millionaire" to talk about. Missed some supposedly "must watch" movies like the third installment of trilogy 20th century boys- for one reason or another. But there are some interesting movies to anticipate this or next week. Like Goemon. or this one: A woman, a gun, and a noodle shop. Now that's what I call a title. For western movie.. I haven't found anything particularly interesting. Though from paris with love looks like a good movie for guys. while "dear john" looks like one for the gals.
