　　　預祝 ２００8 年 平安喜樂

31st December 2007, here i am at the threshold of 2008 thinking about the goals i would like to set for the great year ahead. This year was indeed challenging, full of changes. In fact i am still in the midst of a transition at this very moment, but like pastor had shared last Saturday change is necessary for growth. I guess in the next few days i would be listing down areas that I need to change together with all my goals in 2008. Haha want a sneak preview ? Here's one, be more sociable and build lasting friendships. My brother prompted me one night with this question, "Not counting family members / relatives, who will cry when you die?" to my surprise, i was finding it hard to answer. This was not about the number of people that will eat the curry chicken at the funeral Hahaha but its about leaving a legacy behind, and whether in this lifetime have I make a difference in others. I think with this in mind, change is really necessary such as investing time, effort and being less of a couch potato. Lastly, i went to check out the meaning of the famous song that we will always sing. It turns out that "Auld Lang Syne" is an extremely old Scottish song that was first written down in the 1700s. Robert Burns is the person whose transcription got the most attention, so the song is associated with him.A good translation of the words "auld lang syne" is "times gone by."when we sing this song, we are saying, "We'll drink a cup of kindness yet for times gone by." Although Christmas is over, here is a superb song back in the 90s that i think its worth listening to, there are various versions of this song

Caught up with my buddies in IRAS

Finally managed to meet up my long lost buddies in IRAS on Sunday. It was a day full of indo food as we had Ayam penyet to lunch at lucky plaza. As i stepped into lucky plaza, i was overwhelmed by the crowd and it almost felt like i am not in Singapore. Haha we proceeded with our plan to have lunch there nevertheless. Below are the food i ate hahaha



We started to talk about the need to have passive income, letting your money work for you and not just working for money. The biz minded Roy started to share the importance of moving from E (Employment) to B/I (Biz or Investment). I did not register much i am still U (Unemployed) which is not even E. Haha however it had me thinking, i guess it is time for me get myself familiarize with investments and stuff. "If you think that you cannot, yes! you are correct!" a passing remark made by Roy struck me. i was reminded of the importance of my thinking, the need of renewing my mind with the word of God! Just like in the days of Adam before sin sets in, he was able to have dominion over all the beasts even when they much stronger than him with just his MIND. Indeed this gathering was meaningful!

Blogger Hee Back!

If you have been wondering why i did not update my blog for so long, it is because i am abducted by aliens HAHAHA YEAH RIGHT!. I could not think of anything to blog, nothing eventful except for some interviews which i feel it is nothing worth talking about. Yeah, by this statement, i am still in the midst of job search how sad. Today's service was brilliant, touching on the importance of been connected to God. After service i wanted to go home but was urged by my cg friends to join them for dinner. We went to Five Star Hainanese Chicken Rice. The kampung chicken is succulent, the rice is fragrant and the chilli is fiery hot. Chicken with exercise taste better? Thus i can conclude that exercise is indeed good for both chicken and Man. Hahaha! Its time for me to say good bye once again, hope that i can keep my entry fresh.
