Just came back from bintan trip, pretty good trip... good to see familiar faces and be able to minister to them...or at least let them know that we are not hit and run... It was a village and there are no street lights, so the sky are littered with stars..beautiful on its own already.. so happen there’s a blackout in the area. So the whole street was absolute darkness... i looked out from the house and wonder why it’s still bright outside... i went out and looked up.. it was actually the moon.. amazing how bright and beautiful the moon actually is, and it’s not even full moon... Too much of city lights have overcome its beauty...Like our body and soul, too much of artificial beauty can sometimes ruin the original beauty that God had created in us...
Anyway.. busy again(oh well.. what’s new, so folks, a little patience while i let it out).. Grandma in hospital with virus infection which is dangerous considering her heart is already only half the usual rate.. low blood pressure and weaklegs.. i hope it won’t be as serious as Ps David yeo’s... . And my g.ma is stubborn enough not to want a maid . My sis has very generously said she can stay with her at the new home, but was flatly rejected anyhow.. and i doubt she want to live with us
Training today and preparing for tom’s lesson, sub-ing Raymond tom.. fri drinks session (yeah!) sat noon meeting joy (which we’ve been trying to fix for ages), sat night is our church 60th anniversary at suntec (another yeah!), then watch iron man with cell mates possibly (*another yeah!*) sun church and then cell birthday lunch (after much hooha finally finalised *whew*)
Then there’s grading next weekend... i’ve paused my PT sessions liao told my trainer i need to retain whatever leg i have for my grading... so next week would mainly be trying to gear up for grading.. Sat is Yvonne’s hen night! (triple yeah! ) we still have a quarter whisky left. =) I’m still deciding whether to go aaron kwok’s concert....
Anyway, pausing tkd training after grading (to save $ to fix my leg + take a break before training for black belt (YEAHHH!!) Watching IP Man with Denise and gang (yeah!) and meeting LF and hp gang in may also.. (another yeah!) =) also meeting Pastor scott for catch up also.. and not forgetting the YAYP event in end may...
Ah.. and in the midst of all these..... top of priority for May, FINALISE AND HELP MY SIS’S WEDDING!
As much as may is exciting.. I’m looking fwd to retreat in June to take a break=( =)

Frenz and Leg
On the way up from my lowest point. so although not fully up there yet, but still lots to thank God for nontheless. really need to run on God's spirit and strenght. God conforted me, so that i can in turn comfort others. thing is, time is very limited for me. i Like socialisng, making new friends. Thing is, making new friends are reaaallly easy, but maintaining a friendship is not. takes time, which i might not have..i would love to care so much for a lot of my friends both from church and out of church... but really limited of me and my time to get around..sorry my friends for those whom i have neglected..and at the current moment..i think i already neglected my family.. need to take more effort to keep connected to the family cos sisters are moving out/ have moved out.. not like b4, keepingin touch is really easy...so when u need to put extra priority on family in time to come, something / someone has got to be sacrificed...
As for myself, i've learnt to rely on God only for confort.. cos truth is, if u expect someone to be there for you, most likely u will be disappointed..even if you are married or attached, if u have to keep relying on yr partner, sooner or later, you'll wear the person out..
anyway, finally get round doing something about my heal injury...cos think i aggravated it during gym training.. can barely walk on saturday... plus old toe injury now my leg looks like that..

Twilight marathon
Had a great time at aijia s place on sat:) nt much into proclaiming stuff on fb. But girls, you guys were great.
Suprisingly I enjoyed Twilight (after our Twilight marathon :) )although New Moon was like huh? Wth? I can C why girls went crazy over robert pattison, although I find bella s dad attractive. Thing is I think stephanie meyers created 2 really great character in bella & edward cullen & I like r.pat s protrayal of edward.
Edward's fascination of bella is very classically egoistic. Save for e fragrance in e blood, she intrigued him cos he couldn t read her mind? & she looked really fragile that he feels protective of her? That is so egoistic act & it s e classic theory that people r always more fascinated with folks who seems mysterious & hard to grasp & e need to protect & pull out yr manliness to protect e weaker female sex. Urgh.
Anyway having said that, lll still look out for eclipse. :
On a side note, it's been so long since i eat a lot of really 'unhealthy" stuff like pizza.. the 2 slice of pizza with wings and chips as nice as it was, turned my stomach inside out.. skipped dinner, breakfast and lunch after that.. :P

qing ming
its qing ming morning. just so happen im on leave on this easter mon. so just accompany mum to go cemetery to pay respects.
I ve always found e columbarium & cemetery area very peaceful & beautiful. it's one of e area where you still see a lot of greenery & flat land everywhere.
your pace of walking slows down &-puts you in a pensive mowd.
even e building at e columbarium are named after flowers like Eugenia, Dafodil, peony. the thing though about the columbarium.. sometimes in the same slot, besides the deceased, there's an empty slot for the partner, i find it very sadistic, as though it beckoning to the living spouse to come join them soon..
going to cemetery also puts you to think about yr funeral . if I were still healthy when I die, I would donate all organs out to e living & donate e remaining for science research or whatever. I believe e living need it more than e ground that i'm to be buried in. my funeral wake should also be 2 days only. whoever wanna come would have come . anything longer would be 2 expensive & tiring on e living.. And the songs... no more soppy super sad ones.. it should be joyous rock songs or christian praise music, cos i'm going to see Jesus and my grandma =) it'll a time of celebrartion for me..
Anyway enough of this topic.. very popular and nice 唐诗(Tang Poems) to wrap things up..
<清明 > 杜 牧
清明时节雨纷纷，
路上行人欲断魂。
借问酒家何处有，
牧童遥指杏花村
Translation:
It drizzles endless during the rainy season on Mourning day
Travelers along the road look gloomy and miserable.
When I ask a shepherd boy where I can find a tavern,
He points at a distant hamlet nestling amidst apricot blossoms.
