我俩是否不适合?一次又一次的伤害,你当作无所谓。
一句道歉,一句对不起,我就该一直原谅你吗?
你从来不会珍惜我的付出。我开始问自己,值得吗?
听着周杰伦的“说好的辛福呢?”心情十分遭糕。
你如果真的在乎,就不会忘记这个部落格的存在。
或许不在乎,我会开心很多。
从今天开始,我不在乎了。

Dramatic
Recently my life is too dramatic. Too dramatic that I am unable to consume it. Too many things happen continuously and causing all the planning does not go the way I want. Is it the time to grow, to treasure things I have rather than asking for more? As long as He is there, I know it is already the best part in life.

Wedding dinner of my ex manager vs life teacher
Later, after work, I am going to attend my ex manager vs life teacher's wedding dinner. I really feel glad for her. She has been through a lot to have the happiness now.
Wish to tell you that, you will always be the great manager and life teacher of mine in my heart. Thank you for teaching me all the teachings about life. May happiness be with you forever.
Forgiving Others
Recently, I have realised, how relieve it is to forgive a person.
Just like what Pastor Stephen Thong said, you angry, you hate, you want to take revenge - you can take all of these actions, but the outcome is, you are not happy. He asked us to remember - A hatred heart cant accomplish anything successfully.
Thus, let other people hate us and take revenge on us. We stay cool and choose to be happy. Why not? :)

Painful
It is painful when spending time with them, seeing how time changes things.
I wish I can be by their side, as time is always not enough.
Choosing between love and reality, there is always a hard choice to be made.

Parents coming over
Friday is coming!
Finally, the day that I am very looking forward is coming. My parents are coming on this Friday. After being nearly two years here in Singapore, this is the very first time they want to come over for a visiting:)
In fact, I am really excited. I have planned how the three days should be spent on. Although three days are kinda short, I still hope that they can enjoy the trip.

Anonymous
Don't know why, I just wish my blog belongs to an anonymous.
Nobody who knows me will read this blog, so that I can write all my deep secrets here.
Nobody who sees me before will read this blog, so that I can share all my happiness and bitterness here, without being criticised.
I am falling into my own deep depressed trap, depression is consuming me up.
All the happiness seems to be temporary, sadness will hop himself in.
Sometimes, I just wish I can be happier, thou I know I am supposed to be happy.
Maybe it's my own attitude, my own character. Life is never in satisfaction.
Stop, I have to stop thinking negatively. Life goes on...
Nobody cares, but I still have to live on my life, as simple as it can, as happy as it can.
I promise myself when I launch this blog, that the happy entries must be more than the sad entries. The fact is I am trying hard to control the sad entries to appear in this blog.
Many people may think this is not me, is it?

Left
Once again, I was being left on the street (or should say, on the bus)?
I wonder, why I should be treated this way? I never did so to other people. World is unfair...
Is it wrong to cool down myself by not talking, just listening to music?
Nobody can understand, nobody cares...
Who am I to you?

Mr / Miss Right
許多人往往在抉擇伴侶時,容易東想西想,不知所措,
就是因為害怕一時做錯決定,看錯人,造成終生的遺憾。
諾貝爾文學獎得主蕭伯納說:「此時此刻在地球上,
約有兩萬個人適合當你的人生伴侶,就看你先遇到哪一個,
如果在第二個理想伴侶出現之前,你已經跟前一個人發展出
相知相惜、互相信賴的深層關係,那後者就會變成你的好朋友,
但是若你跟前一個人沒有培養出深層關係,感情就容易動搖、變心,
直到你與這些理想伴侶候選人的其中一位擁有穩固的深情,
才是幸福的開始,漂泊的結束。」
愛上一個人不需要靠努力,只需要靠「際遇」,
是上天的安排,但是「持續地愛一個人」 就要靠「努力」,在愛情的經營中,
順暢運轉的要素就是溝通、體諒、包容與自制(面臨誘惑有所自制)。
有許多人總是為「際遇」所迷惑與苦惱,意念不停、慾念不斷、爭逐不散,
而忘了培養經營感情的能力才是幸福的關鍵。
所以不要去追問到底誰才是我的Mr.Right / Miss Right,
而是要問說在眼前的伴侶關係中,我能努力到什麼程度、
成長到什麼程度,若沒有培養出經營幸福的能力,
就算真的 Mr / Miss Right出現在你身邊,
幸福依然會錯過的,而活在猶疑與遺憾當中,
這不就是許多愛情虛無症的遭遇與心態嗎?
若你此刻已有一位長久相伴的伴侶,
不要再隨便三心二意地猶疑了,
我們往往不易察覺感情中的一個陷阱,
就是「近親生慢侮」,也就是經濟學中的鐵律
「邊際效益遞減法則」,
跟你在一起越久的人,就越容易麻木與忽視,
而新鮮的「際遇」總是那麼動人可愛。
在感情對待中,難免有摩擦與無心的傷害,
而且論得罪自己的次數累加起來最多的人,
當然是跟我們在一起最久、最親近的人;
而新歡呢,又還沒開始有得罪你的機會,
再加上他的刻意討好,所以新歡怎麼看怎麼可愛,
舊愛怎麼看怎麼討厭。
但別忘了,新歡身上總是有不確定的未知數,
舊愛身上就是有難得的熟悉感、確定感、信賴感。
千萬不要隨便在偶然的「際遇」中迷失了自己,錯放了幸福溫暖的手。
所以蕭伯納的話,是要提醒情人不要太鑽牛角尖於尋覓那唯一,
應該把精神用在學會經營幸福的能力上,
同時也提醒我們「溺水三千,只取一瓢飲」。
若有幸遇到了難得的伴侶,就不要再三心二意了,
因為我們永遠不知道一生何時會遇到兩萬個其中的幾個,
所以要知福惜福、活在當下。

受了点伤
受了点伤
歌手:雯靖
词曲:阿桑
专辑:别把梦惊醒
my love 晚安就别再为难别管我会受伤
想开体谅我已经习惯不然又能怎样
这个城市太会说谎爱情只是昂贵的橱窗
沿路华丽灿烂陈列甜美幻象谁当真谁就上当
竟然以为你会不一样但凭什么你要不一样
因为寂寞太冷虚构出的温暖没理由能撑到天亮
前进转弯我跌跌撞撞在这迷宫打转
死心失望会比较简单却又心有不甘
这个城市太会伪装爱情就像霓虹灯一样
谁离开之后却把灯忘了关让梦做得太辉煌
以为能够留你在身旁但是谁肯留在谁身旁
一首情歌都比一个亲吻更长这就叫做好聚好散
别说你对我感到愧疚别说你会永远想念我
我很知道孤单这条路怎么走请你不要安慰我
my love 晚安别放在心上我只受了点伤

To Pa and Ma
"You Raise Me Up"
When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
By, Westlife
Thank you, Pa and Ma, for raising me up.
I wish to give you both the best of the world, as you both have given me the best in me.
Wish God's grace always be with you, always and forever...

Exposure
Recently, there is a chance for me to expose myself more to the world.
How other people live on the world? How different each person can be? How we can grasp on our lives?
There is a deep thought within me, do I want my life to be as what it is now?
Why are there so many questions within me? I need answers...desperately!

Sadness
Yesterday was Chap Goh Mei.
It is supposingly a day which is full with happiness, with whole family surround the table, eating delicious food together.
However, I was working late, till 10.40pm. Gosh, sickening.
On the way back home, around 10.55pm, I found out I was really lonely. Staring at the surroundings, how beautiful it was, but my heart was empty. It seems like I have everything, but actually nothing.
I really miss home...

Choices?!
Life is all about choices. I finally choose to believe this:)
You choose to eat, you choose to sleep, you choose to shop, you choose to work, etc, etc...
Where can I get the answers of those choices? Yes, through the evidences and consequences that I have to face later on.
Wish God will guide me through...

Love and Faith
I went to church.
I love God
I was being baptised.
I strayed away.
I still love God, but lesser and lesser.
I went back to church.
I strayed away again.
I went back to church again.
I strayed away again.
This is the process that I have faced. Each time going back to church again, my faith is reducing bit by bit. I wish to be like how it has been in past, but it is a great lesson to be learnt.
God will not leave us. He loves us. Hanging on there...

China?!
Going to China?!
Sincerely, I only ever thought of going Singapore to work. Never been through my mind that I can go to somewhere outside Singapore.
Now there is a chance, and I start to feel insecure (Don't laugh -_-)
Hopefully things will go smoothly... with fingers crossed...

As Christians, why we need to spread gospel? (For Christians out there)
Attended Rev. Stephen Thong last night. For this very first service in year 2008, he preaches about why as Christians, we need to spread good news to non believers.
Firstly, it is due to this is the will for God. He mentioned about many people actually do not understand what is meant by the will of God, and they keep mentioning about the will of God. Only through the will of God to forgive, we are being forgiven. Only through the will of God to enable us understanding words of bible, thus we can understand. Even all people knelt down when receiving the commands from Emperor in ancient time, and Emperor is someone who would die. What more to say God, the creator of all the living things, who is eternal. Thus, it is a must to spread the gospel.
Secondly, it is the command from Jesus Christ. Before the persecution of Jesus Christ, He kept on preaching about the good news. Morever, He had two commands for us, of which one is internally and another one is externally. Internal command requires us to love one another, while the external command is to approach the people and spread the gospel to them.
Thirdly, there is the inspiration of love from Jesus Christ. We love Jesus Christ, because He loves us deeply first, that He is willing to sacrifice for us on the cross. It is not because we love Him then He starts to love us. Once the Holy Spirit is with us, we will be constrainted to spread the gospel. The difference between 'constraint' and 'compel' is, 'constraint' is the feeling to push us to spread gospel from internally (our own self), while 'compel' is from external source (being forced by others). It is the power of love within us
which constraints us to spread gospel, when we start to love Jesus Christ as our saviour.
Rev. Stephen Thong continued to give two examples of what is meant by a constraint which is from our own self. Take for example, we all have the experience of having stomach ache, it is so aching that we do not care what we are doing at that moment and how other people will think of us, even if we are attending a church service, or having a meeting, all we know is, going to the washroom and solving the stomach ache first. Nobody force us to go washroom, we want to go ourselves. The second example is for the women who want to give birth to babies. No women can bear the suffering and delay time to deliver the babies when the babies want to come out from the womb to see the world.
Fourthly, there is a need to spread the gospel. Paradoxically, human beings do not have to buy the most important thing in life, i.e. oxygen, but spend so much of their money to buy less important thing - food. We have to admit that according to the hierarchy of importance, oxygen is the most important one, following by water and food. However, the most expensive one is food, but the cheapest one is oxygen. In fact, we do not even need cash to buy oxygen. This is also similar with the need of gospel in human beings. We all need gospel desperately, but we choose to 'believe' that we do not need any gospel.
When Christians want to share gospel with non Christians, non Christians usually will close the door. It is because, they 'choose' to believe that they do not need gospel. As for many Chistians, they need the gospel most, and they agree on the truth that they need the gospel most, but they are also most reluctant and scare to commit themselves to spread gospel. Even some of the preachers are also feeling very pressured when having a gospel rally. In conclusion, we need gospel, just we react in the other way round, to console ourselves that we do not need it.
Fifthly, it is because of the feeling of in debt to the gospel. We always need to have the feeling of in debt to the gospel. Take for example, when we feel we are considerate, we are actually not, when we feel we are not considerate, we will try to improve ourselves more and become more considerate, and thus becoming a better person. When we have the feeling of in debt to the gospel, we will wish to preach the gospel more.
I find yesterday night is the night that i really learn a good lesson - why we have to share gospel to others. Hope this will help you too:)

Secondly, it is the command from Jesus Christ. Before the persecution of Jesus Christ, He kept on preaching about the good news. Morever, He had two commands for us, of which one is internally and another one is externally. Internal command requires us to love one another, while the external command is to approach the people and spread the gospel to them.
Thirdly, there is the inspiration of love from Jesus Christ. We love Jesus Christ, because He loves us deeply first, that He is willing to sacrifice for us on the cross. It is not because we love Him then He starts to love us. Once the Holy Spirit is with us, we will be constrainted to spread the gospel. The difference between 'constraint' and 'compel' is, 'constraint' is the feeling to push us to spread gospel from internally (our own self), while 'compel' is from external source (being forced by others). It is the power of love within us
which constraints us to spread gospel, when we start to love Jesus Christ as our saviour.
Rev. Stephen Thong continued to give two examples of what is meant by a constraint which is from our own self. Take for example, we all have the experience of having stomach ache, it is so aching that we do not care what we are doing at that moment and how other people will think of us, even if we are attending a church service, or having a meeting, all we know is, going to the washroom and solving the stomach ache first. Nobody force us to go washroom, we want to go ourselves. The second example is for the women who want to give birth to babies. No women can bear the suffering and delay time to deliver the babies when the babies want to come out from the womb to see the world.
Fourthly, there is a need to spread the gospel. Paradoxically, human beings do not have to buy the most important thing in life, i.e. oxygen, but spend so much of their money to buy less important thing - food. We have to admit that according to the hierarchy of importance, oxygen is the most important one, following by water and food. However, the most expensive one is food, but the cheapest one is oxygen. In fact, we do not even need cash to buy oxygen. This is also similar with the need of gospel in human beings. We all need gospel desperately, but we choose to 'believe' that we do not need any gospel.
When Christians want to share gospel with non Christians, non Christians usually will close the door. It is because, they 'choose' to believe that they do not need gospel. As for many Chistians, they need the gospel most, and they agree on the truth that they need the gospel most, but they are also most reluctant and scare to commit themselves to spread gospel. Even some of the preachers are also feeling very pressured when having a gospel rally. In conclusion, we need gospel, just we react in the other way round, to console ourselves that we do not need it.
Fifthly, it is because of the feeling of in debt to the gospel. We always need to have the feeling of in debt to the gospel. Take for example, when we feel we are considerate, we are actually not, when we feel we are not considerate, we will try to improve ourselves more and become more considerate, and thus becoming a better person. When we have the feeling of in debt to the gospel, we will wish to preach the gospel more.
I find yesterday night is the night that i really learn a good lesson - why we have to share gospel to others. Hope this will help you too:)

Joke for the day
There is one guy, proposing to a girl to be his girlfriend.
He writes a letter to her, love letter. Woo hoo...
Inside, there is a sentence, 'I like your face, it looks like red red apple'.
Gosh, red red apple???
Mind you, my blog is not a love letter, my blog is full with red colour, but it is not a face:P

Company Trip to Taiwan in 2007 (Second Entry)
Taiwan? Yes, it is Taiwan. A place which is full of chinese culture. Can you imagine the below is a hotel?
And, the interior design, is totally cool...
The front 'gate' of the hotel:
The ' Eye' of Taiwan
The tallest building in Taiwan, Taipei 101:
Of cos, going to Taiwan, won't miss the chance to go having 温泉.
Lastly, I wish to introduce the place called 小人国 (Tiny Little Country) where all the statues there are much smaller than exact sizes.
四合院 is a building which is being stayed by people at old time. There is a joke relating to this old type of building.
I have one friend went to Taiwan not long ago and she chose to stay in a hotel, which was of this type of building with her friends. At last, all of them pretty scared at night, as they started to imagine things - ghosts.
For Taiwan ghost movies, they were usually being taken at this type of house, with lanterns hanging around. That particular night, the hotel my friend stayed in also got those lanterns all around the place.
She told me, she used 5 minutes to take her bath:) LOL. Human beings are self tortured species thou. Haha...

Tempting Food in Taiwan
Yummy yummy... I really love ice mango. While worried that I can't have it anymore when back to Singapore, my colleague has introduced to me that actually Singapore has it also. Luckily...
Taiwan has several night markets which are selling local food. One of them is Si Lin Night Market. Two things that must try at Si Lin Night Market are:
Chicken Steak
As we all can see, even the fruits are also welly carved.
Taiwan is indeed a nice place to visit if a person is food lover:)
It's a pleasure for me to visit Taiwan in October 2007, by following company trip. Basically, I think Taiwan is well known for the delicious food, which in chinese called 小吃.
My colleagues and I had taken a lot of photos for the food there. Here is a page to share with.
The most famous 'ice kacang' in Taiwan which is ice mango as follow:

One restaurant that is really an eye opener for me called 五角船板, direct translation to English is Five Angles Wood of a Ship (sounds weird). I must admit this restaurant is the most unique restaurant I ever went. It is being designed by an artistic woman, with the look below:
Ya, in fact, the building behind her, is the external look of the restaurant. It is really a special look which amazed me. Moreover, the interior design of the restaurant is also a special one:
I found out that artistic designer likes women's bodies. Her pictures drawn and statues carved are all focusing on a beautiful shape of women's bodies. Have a closer look on the red statue:
The food inside the restaurant:
As we all can see, even the fruits are also welly carved.
Taiwan is indeed a nice place to visit if a person is food lover:)
