People Need The Lord

I came across this song last night. Believe it or not that I only found this song from my external hardisc after 1.5 years. Thanks to Tengku Mahkota who copied all those songs for me before i left for the UK.

Anyway, I need the Lord everyday personally. Only by His strength, i'm able to do my daily tasks and all glory be to God.

I love you Lord!

my daily devotion today says '2Peter 1:20 - No prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation'. It reminds me of the importance of context that i learned in Weds bible studies class.

Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen! (ORIGINAL VERSION)

Nice video clip, shared by my colleague!

Thursday, November 22, 2007

Someone please pick up the phone

Time:1931. Venue: Mont Kiara office. *working late*

I've been calling people, pls pick up your phone!!!

Health condition: Stiff neck and shoulder. Sleep deprivation. 4-5 hours per night for 4 nights. fern's body cannot bear anymore. I shall replenish my sleep tomorrow before Mrs Ko gets a shock to see my tired face.

Making memories: Some random photos

Tengku Mahkota and I played with camera tricks. He picked one piece of prawn and I adjusted it as if someone feeding Julia.

Found a 30 year old tea set for Chinese wedding tea ceremony in the kitchen. It was my parent's tea set.

We spotted VVIP@cikgu eating breakie at Chen's house on wedding day. Everyone has to eat outside the house except cikgu.

This baby adorable or not? good looking leh? We spotted this baby at my aunt's house. She's a baby sitter.

What is this? Waye trying to stuff her bag into her messy trolley bag in the airport. * we need anti-shaker camera lar*

After checking in, I found myself traveling with 2 sleepy heads. *oink* *oink*


Making memories 9112007- Chen's 3 day wedding

9th November. Venue: Dinner banquet at Cititel, Penang. See how pretty is she? YY also very good looking!


It was like a CDK reunion. I got to see my ex-schoolmates..I haven't seen some of them for 10 years.

Tengku Mahkota & I play-play after the wedding dinner was over.

10th November. Venue: Chen's house. Supposed to be hen's night. We took photos and I went into her room to play with her accessories..



11th November. Venue: Chen's house. Da...da....the pretty bride in white gown!!


Gambate!!! *ops, not YY* YY only did 1 time of pumping. It's the brother.. POor lil brother, make sure you get YY to buy you a dinner for the effort to put in for 19 times of pumping in order to get a wife. Good job!

Another tough game, idea by bride's maid. She cheated the guys saying 'remember, the egg is raw!' Liar, it was cooked egg! I wonder why YY couldn't even feel it. Instruction: Put the egg into YY's pants from the left side to the right side. DO NOT BREAK THE EGG. NO EXTRA PANTS. *take note of how many hands trying to help him when the egg reached the bottleneck*

It was the first time that Tengku Mahkota saw so many 'sistas' in a wedding. What to do? We're convent gals..

YY spoke to Andrew in between the games:-

YY:Eh, you're supposed to help me.

Tengku Mahkota: Huh? I'm at the gal's side. HOw to help u? *looking at so many gals* I can't help you, I wanna catch my 4pm flight back to KL. I don't wanna stay here.

YY: We shall see, when it comes to your turn.

Anyway, 'Chen &YY, may god bless your marriage and BE PRODUCTIVE!!!'

Favourite HK egg roll -- Thanks to Jon

Advertisement time: HK egg must be this brand!!! PLAIN egg roll.
*drooling*
Wait, let me grab my last piece before i go airport. *GLUTTON*

I brought back to Turtle Island to share with Mrs Ko.

Beware, I'm coming back tomorrow night to eat more egg rolls!!!

Mrs KO, you're so funny :D

muahahha! My mom provides power for my iron??!!!

What's your reaction?

Here comes another post for discussion. Another typical scenario from drama.
A, B & C went for lunch. D is the colleague of A, B & C.
A, B & C bumped into D as she was trying to get a seat after ordering.
Assuming D was EXTRA-pretty today.
A: Wow...you're so pretty today. *very sincere*
D: Thanks
B: You're pretty everyday *saying to D*
B: What do you mean today? *saying to A&D*
D: Thank you. *walked off*
C: *continue eating* *smile*
Think of yourself as A, B and D.
What is the reaction of A on hearing what B said?
What is B trying to do?
What is the reaction of C on hearing the conversation of A&B?
What is the reaction of D? *so flattered, right?**cheeks red RED*

Making Memories 16112007 - Uncle Yap's birthday!

On 16th November, we had a small birthday celebration for U. Yap. The night before that we had McD for dinner at the garden based on U Yap's request. Had a great fellowship with U yap and A yap after work. He preferred to eat at home and he can enjoy the garden, like what he says, 'Eating the garde, i get to enjoy my plants and flowers, talk to them, enjoy the nice weather'. Thank god the weather was good the other night.

On 16th November, we had a cake! a carrot cake.
See how lovely is the cake!!! *drooling*


U Yap took sometime to figure out how to cut the cake...

The cake was brought over by our Princess Joyce... Thanks so much for the cake! it's really rich and tasty! After all, it's sweet and that's what U Yap likes the most!
Tengku Muda didn't manage to make trip back to KL...
After cake cutting..fellowship lar!!!
U Yap shared with us that his 10 year old @ 1st glasses broke during his game...

Who's so vain?


Need a rest

Some of my friends asked me why I can put up a few posts in a day?
When I tend to writemore, that's the time when I'm stressed out with my work due to my heavy work load. In order to release stress, I blog after i finish one small task, do a bit of rantings, think a lil 'out of office', etc.
Since beginning of this week, by god's grace, i've finished 4 write ups until this minute. Wow...can't believe it! It's all by His strength and wisdom.. I've just finished 1 write up which is not supposed to be in my schedule, it was an urgent request. I finished writing the article within 2 hours instead of my normal speed of 4 hours. Prayerfully, I managed to keep the standard. Now, i think i deserve a little of rest for 30mins and 1 hour of lunch time. I went to bed at 1am last night due to work and i couldn't sleep when i was on the bed. My brain was so active and I just couldn't rest well.
So, i shall finish another write up by 5pm before i step out this office. Prayerfully, my boss will not call me on friday when i'm holding my mother's hands, walking hand-in-hand, enjoying the sun shine in Turtle Island. I want a peaceful holidays before I come back on Sunday to my final research battle for the year 2008.
On Friday night, I shall be attending Siok Chen's wedding. I look forward to meet my high school friends that i haven't seen them since i left for college. I remember one of them told me 4 years back 'Why you still look the same? Make some changes lar' I'm not expecting the same comment on Friday, ok?

Daily bread

I'd just simply love the last bit of today's daily bread:-

Trust in God and you will know
He can vanquish any foe;
Simply trust Him day by day,
He will your strength and stay. - D. De Haan

Turtle Island - Here i come!

Empress Ko...i miss you...

Chen mui2: congratulations!!! we're coming back to celebrate your big day!

Pray

Do you close your eyes when you pray?

Do you put both hands together when you pray?

Do you kneel down when you pray?

Recently, our pastor asked us to try opening our eyes when we pray. Then, some of my churchmates find that it's pretty tough to focus.

Is that the reason we close eyes to pray so that we focus on God?

Since beginning of this year, the entire church also kneel down during prayer time.

Personally, i've encountered several times in my life (especially when i was a student), i used to fall asleep before i say the last word 'AMEN!'

For us, we can pray anytime we want, preferably, with the door closed in a room, right?

I used to pray when i'm driving on the road, with my eyes open BIG BIG...Am i not focus? but i remember to say 'AMEN!'
