Blessed Day Off

2012 11 08

Had an enjoyable day off with my 'daughters' - Yi Ping and Kai Shwen today

Had the chance to revisit SM Shan Tao (my secondary school)


Memories~

Went there to fetch one of my daughters Yi Ping from SMST at 12:30pm and went to Suria Sabah for movie - My Dog Dou Dou

Before movie of course we went to Starbucks to wait for the movie to start at 2:35pm (Kai Shwen's idea this time, not mine)



KK is such a 'small' town (met Rachel Wong and Emily here)


So far the best place to study and relax

My Dog Dou Dou

Some parts of the movie are great for illustrations and below are some of them:

  1. Man's love is conditional. Ah Ming (the father) who treated the dog (Dou Dou) badly & thought of it as a nuisance became to love it the moment he knew it could predict 4D lottery numbers (which actually can't but the son - Ah Xing who has the ability).
  2. Misunderstandings happen when both parties have different assump
    tions. Ah Ming & Ling Ling (his wife) met up at a restaurant & talked about the past. Ling Ling was saying how good other husbands treated their families & Ah Ming 'assumed' she meant that she wanted to have vacation & all that but actually (I think) all she wanted was for the husband to quit gambling & spend time with the family.
There's also a part where it can be used to illustrate the sacrifice of Christ brought reconciliation between God and man

Overall I feel the movie was good and touching (worth watching)

After the movie we met Rev. Khee Vun and the family along with Cynthia and had some 'fun moments' there

I'm writing this post right before class time so to cut the story short (I'm going to class in 4 minutes) we ended up in PAC after movie till 7pm

In conclusion, very enjoyable day


May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all evermore.  Amen.

The Good Job and Good Bye of Kim Jong-hyun

The recent passing of Kim Jong-Hyun on 18 December 2017, a 27-year-old lead singer of the massively popular K-pop boy band SHINee, shocked the world as much as his worldwide fans.  Jonghyun was the best artist who loved music more than anyone and gave his all on the stage ...I t is heartbreaking to deliver such sad news to the fans who loved him. His "suicide note" (unofficial English translation) can be found online, which seems to express the struggle and sufferings were beyond his limits, hence he decided to end his life. However, discussion about the "suicide note" was ongoing and one of the comments said... As outsiders, we will never know what happened in this man's life. We only saw what he and the SM wanted us to see. At the end of the day, we didn't know Jonghyun nor his suffering. I think that is the worst part. We can be a fans but we shouldn't delude ourselves into thinking we know that person and their life. Other than feeling of ...

Fellowship

2012 08 28 Today we had a farewell dinner for Jai Voon who'll be going Penang soon. I've realized how much I love to welcome people to my house for gatherings. I've also realized how much their presence at my house brought tremendous joy to my heart that I wished it'll stay that way or at least for a bit longer. As they were leaving, I was sitting there and thinking 'How great'll be if this gathering'll keep going on' but thanks be to God that someday I'll be able to live forever in the presence of God along with other redeemed people of the Lord. Prayer of blessing for Jai Voon “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” (Isaiah 26:3 NIV) Lord I thank You for You've created us to have fellowship with You as well as with one another. I pray that our fellowship'll be stronger everyday and when we gather, people will see and know we're Your disciples. Bless Jai Voon...
