Ok... it's time to recount an old joke...

One evening, my best friends (Zhi Jian and Vincent) and I went for supper. We had a craving for carrot cake but were contemplating on whether to get the white... or the black carrot cake...

So, Zhi Jian the genius suggested... "Let's get half black half white since we can't decide..."

And I believed... walked up to the store... "Uncle, ban hei ban bai (half black half white)..."

He gave me the... hello boy... I'm running a business... don't try to be funny look... and told me... they don't sell that!

Uber embarassing....

But today... i shall have the last laugh... my sister found a post on a webbie... which has confirmed... the existence of this yin-yang dish... and i proudly present to you all...

I made a reconnection with my past yesterday evening, grabbed my water bag and went for a run from Punggol to Khatib!

It has been a long while since I've ran, and I'm glad I went for one yesterday.

More than merely calories were burnt away, various thoughts which were burdens to my heart and mind passed on as well.

Nothing beats having a refreshed mind and a still heart to face the challenges of life!

More importantly, it is time to dig into God's word and live a life in accordance to His will and befitting of a Christian believer.



It is a great time for us to contemplate and share the true meaning of Christmas as it draws near.

The birth of a Saviour and King who changed the course of man.

His death on the cross has forged a bridge to eternal life, and subsequently, as He rose from the dead, He became the cornerstone for the reconciliation of man with God .

A relationship with Christ endures the test of time and a relationship with Him, whose promises have been faithfully fulfilled one after another, is indeed worth holding on to and trusting in times of trials and tribulations.

As we sing carols and bask in the atmosphere of the Christmas festival, I urge everyone to contemplate on the true meaning of Christmas and realize the importance of the day which our Saviour was born!

God bless! =)

Adam didn't "find" Eve...

God did!

...and brought her to him!

Genesis 2: 22

"...which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man"

Turning

Tell me you love me, tell me that you're mine again.
Tell me you won't turn away.
Turn like the season, turn back to me once again,
circling all the way.

Once you were my blue eyed prince,
waking love from an endless sleep.
You made all of my wishes come true,
turning all of my dreams into you.

Turning and swirling and whirling 'round' you again,
twirling and curling 'round' you.
Turning and burning and yearning for you again,
All my life with you.

It's a chance, a romance, it's a dance we do.
Turning in circles we go.
Turn like the season, turn back to me once again.
Never let me go.

But lately i'm losing sleep,
someone else is in your eyes.
Won't you turn back to me, my love?
Won't you stop telling me lies?

Turning and swirling and whirling 'round' me again,
Twirling and curling 'round' me.
Turning and burning and yearning for me again.
All your life with me.

Tell me you love me, tell me that you're mine again.
Tell me you won't turn away.
Turn like the season, turn back to me once again,
circling all the way.

Hello peeps!

I thought it might be interesting to share 1-2 spiritual lessons I've experienced (Praise the Lord!) amidst this highly stressful period of time in school.

I am beginning to enjoy these little but thought provoking encounters and I pray that I'll continue to be extra sensitive to God's prompting amidst trials! =P

Thought of the day - Part 1

Remember the times when we enjoy doing a particular thing (no matter how small it might be) which reminds us of someone we love?

A chinese proverb/ 成语 which closely parallels this concept would be...

爱屋及乌 - "比喻爱一个人而连带关心到跟他有关系的人或物".

However, unlike the Chinese proverb which seem to have a negative connotation attached to it, there are more to just simply following blindly and mirroring what that person likes to do. Although there are times when it seems like we are simply creating imaginary-thought bubbles, which makes us feel a little more attached to the person just because we are doing a common activity, I personally feel that this is more of a conscious choice made to remember/ experience/ care about the people I adore and it reminds me of the people I hold dearly to.

Food for thought:
Then, I began thinking about my love for Christ Jesus. Does my adoration and love for the God naturally surface as I go about my daily routine? Does my actions reflect Christ-likeness? Do I do things just simply because I love Him and want to be more like Him? Do I make a conscious effort to experience Him even in the little tasks I have on hand?

Ok... it's late... I'll post Thought of the day - Part 2 soon!
