Special Occasion
3:59 PM Most Expensive Dinner Nothing much after the first day of New Year. But to celebrate my parents wedding anniversary. We went to this Japanese restaurant. They told me that this Jap place was supposed to be the best ever in SG. I didn’t know where we are going and yeah, it’s a place I haven’t been before. My mum only went there about twice. So we got lost but it was only 5 min. then we managed to find that place. And oh my… its so lively. The people cooking are super active. When they were to confirm an order, they shouted Aye, then they end off with a ‘Suppp!’ or it sounds something like that. Its quite funny. And err, about the food… we got to pick it from the… shelf in front of us. We select by just pointing to the food. Yeah.
Then we had Sake and some real good meat!! Haha. We ate a lot of weird stuff, not actually weird but they just looked different. Like err, a big prawn but half the shell is gone, and errr, some steam egg(sry not egg but its yellow like egg) with mushroom, nuts and chicken. It’s the best man!! It’s a rather small place, I wont say its close to a restaurant. Its hard to find and hard to order if u dont know Jap. But I tell u, the food is nicer than a lot of food if u know how to eat that is. I cant tell u the bill. All I can say is, ‘Man grabs his chest… must have seen the bill.’ Haha! _____________________________________________________________________________________
ahh here we are

Movie Review- A Christmas Carol Rating- 8.1/10__3 stars Directed by one of my fan, Robert Zemicks (Forrest Gump and back to the future series). This movie is indeed not a fail. The animation is quite crazy as the entire intro is a one-take. It was quite amazing. It’s a story about a stingy old man and within one night, he was visited by 3 ghosts, ghost of Christmas past, present and yet to come. And as u know, after the night, he was a changed man. Its based on a short story which explains it cos the movie is quite short also. Animation is awesome. The only thing I dislike was the reactions of some people were a little exaggerated. Some scenes are quite disturbing and scary, even I got shocked. Its one of the animations that surpasses most movies. Other than that, its quite enjoyable. PS: i know, this must be the shortest post ever. the next post will be on my trip in China. and i warn that its gonna be the longest post ever, the longest in history. but dont worry, i'll do my best to shorten and make it sweet :) and yeah, there will be a lot of pic and video. so well, stay tuned!

Never gonna be the same again
11:48 PM Church Camp 1st day We met in Riverlife and boy oh boy, its packed with people. No, at first, we just to fetch Jianmin and her bro to church but she was real late which angered my dad. We got to church and great… zack and I were kinda lost. Not becos we don’t know where to go but we don’t know what to do. But cut it short, we found our way to our group. We went to Malaysia and gotta pass 2 customs. Man, so sian. Cant even sleep properly. We got a hotel to stay in. so we checked in unpacked our stuff. We went for Worship and next was Workshop, means different people of age go to this place where different speakers will talk to us. Mine was how to maximize God-given potential. Says that we should do things in God name and all glory goes to him. God gets the glory, we get the story. Fair enough! Then wash up and dinner with my group. I should interact more. We went for Service and Worship and yeah, the speaker talked about how we are born to win. We are born with a seed of greatness. And yes, people tend to look on their bad points than good ones. But that’s not what God want. We shouldn’t discourage ourselves just becos we have many bad points. Everyone is good in something, it’s a fact. Then it was cell time. I don’t know about others but many people seem to be their cell very much. For me, well I didn’t have cell. So the admin people placed me in a cell. At first I don’t wanna be the same cell with my bro, then I was placed in Tampines 2 cell. But I got there. The people are indeed very active but I somehow don’t feel I was meant to be there. I don’t know, I can just feel it. I told God, this is not the cell for me, pls lead me to another one. Then suddenly, the leader of the cell asked me where my sch was. I said Pind Yi, near Bedok MRT. Then he said, huh, why u didn’t go to a Bedok cell, there is one. Come I bring u there…
Omg!! I thanked God man. He did hear my wish. It was not even a prayer but God still ans it. Oh I love him so much. He knows me full well. So I met Vanessa, she supposed to be the cell leader. I ask her some Qns about how I meet the people and how I can get to know them better. She told me not to worry and I was suppose come to her and she will lead me to the cell. So I went back to my room. There were 3 people counting my bro too. And im the room IC. Funny it sounds that when I bathe, I then talk to God… well… that’s me. 
moving on 
now at malaysia 
in the hall 
2nd day We woke up early at 6am and we got dressed and went for breakfast at 7.30. my group also went for breakfast. We were suppose to have Devotion time then breakfast but we have breakfast first since there was less people. So we went for Devotion and our leaders shared what our dreams are and what challenges we met. Then we got Worship and Workshop.
This time, in this workship, my cousin was speaking. He was talking about from we can be from average to great. In my opinion, he is a good speaker but he needs to earn the crowd attention more cos after a while, I could some people sleeping or talking to one another. But for me, I did my best to hear to every word. The thing I liked most was the short video about priorities. That.. was very inspiring. So inspiring it made me wanna create a new movie. This time, its gonna be simple. So err, Winston, boon, shaun, DY and some friends, if u read this. Be prepared cos im gonna call u soon. But my cousin gave a good point that we should put God first in our lives. U’ll never know that u can do all your other things too and u will succeed. And yay!! I can have the priorities video that my cousin have.
Then we went for the Ultimate Showdown. Its super cool. We played like many weird games. Like floorball but using sticks, soccer but we have to go all four, captain ball but using papaya and so on. We played a balloon game too but we must carried it with our legs. Its super scary and I was indeed scared cos someone will come running to me while running with a balloon on my leg. And that person will try to pop the balloon by stepping or attacking u. yeah, its quite scary. Im so sry, I couldn’t take any pic or video cos I didnt have my hp with me. Then we have a entire group pic. Its like 500 plus people in one pic so we gotta squeeze, haha. Then we tidy up and head back. Wash up and have dinner with my group. Then had Service and Worship. This is I was singing… haha. No la, I didn’t sing but a guy named Samuel was singing. His singing rockz man, I love him… love his singing I mean.
There was that time when we were praying then all the sudden, about 80% of the people spoke in tongues( spoke in a different language). Its like almost of the hall of people spoke like that and there was I saying… dear god… So yeah, is was kinda weird sight, to me. So I prayed that I could be touch by the Holy spirit and at least be heard by God. I went to my knees and raised my hands but a real longgg time. So long I got cramps and I could not stand up. It was way beyond my comfort zone. And u know what God said, he said NOTHING. Nothing at all.
I hear nothing but the cries of the people. I was like greatly disappointed. I went to Bedok cell and they were… real funny. I end up laughing and I think I really like the cell. So I thanked God cos he ans my prayer again and I think the cell was close to what I expect, which was good. So I told my cell about my counter with God which was nothing. They told me not to give up and not lose hope for God will speak to me. Just not at that time. So I went back to my room and pray for me, my bro, my friends, my room-mates and yeah, my wishes. Sleep again at 12 plus. 
i was sleeping on the floor so u wont see me 
3rd day We woke up late. Quite late, really. Wooo, last night of the camp but I somehow didn’t wish it to end despite we got 2 Worship and my throat starts to hurt from all the singing. So we had breakfast… no I had breakfast. The others went for Devotion first. So when I got to them, it was time for breakfast so they left. I was with 2 girls in one entire room, it’s a big room. Don’t anyhow think. So I did my devotion. Im quite glad that almost everyone left, so the place is quiet. Man, God knows me dam well.
So we had Worship until 9.45 and it was time for the next workship. This time… God really spoke to me. Not that, he came down to speak with me. But he spoke through the speaker who was talking to us. He indirectly ans my Qns and my prayer. He talk about Re-thinking our values. Basically, its like thinking about your thinking. Don’t get it? Don’t worry about it. So anyway, he tell us not to focus plainly on people differences but slightly more on the similarities. So then we went for lunch there’s another workship but this is a gender workship. Means guys and girls are separated. Girls in hall, guys another hall, and a couple is speaking to us. The wife speaks to the girls and the husband speaks to us. He talked about sexuality and BGR( relationships). Don’t laugh! What he said was very true. Even though it was quite embarrassing but I believe many of us guys also face with problems with this. He also told us not to anyhow date girls just becos she’s nice or pretty. He said, the first girl u date should be a high chance u will marry her. That’s why its important to know her first and know her well, which I believe so.
then I was with Moses, he’s my pri sch friend. Soon, I must do this Thanking leader thingy. Means, my group write or sign on a hat and then give our leaders but we cannot let the leaders. So I was like rushing here and there, trying to get people to write on the hat but I cant let the leaders. And things don’t go according to plan cos we don’t have free time. So I rush and rush until I lost my bible, omg. How could I man!!!!! So we had Service and Worship and this time, we sang for like 3,5 hrs. hahah!! Cool eh? We sang we lose our voice. Then there was one song. Man, I really love it, I went to the front and starting jumping and singing. Omg, I really like the song. So we went for cell, we were playing some stupid game on who gets to share first. And we had burgers for lunch! Cool man.
But not everyone did shared so tmr in devotion we have to come together again to share. Yeah, the leader said so. but before, I got a video while the people are sharing. I did my best to take without them noticing, and err, sry I screw up a bit. Cos I didn’t exactly film their face. So anyway, I went to my room and starting writing letters to people. And yeah, I still couldn’t find my bible. I prayed someone could find it tmr and return it. And yeah, I slept like 2 plus, omg. 
charlene, my group leader 
sry, ni forgotten their names 
my cell group
brown water, its disgusting
4th day The last day of the camp. I’ll say im really gonna miss the camp. I went for devotion with my cell. I still have no bible. But I get to share my exp with my cell and how my prayer got answered. They were quite attentive, haha. We went for the last Service before we depart. This time, we were suppose to let our leaders pray for us. Whoever was prayed for, sit down so the leaders will know those who have been prayed yet. I sat down ask God what he really wanted to say. I continuously ask and prayed, cos throughout the whole camp, I didn’t have a counter with God. I ask for quite some time then I hear something…
what do u see? Those were the words. So I looked around. Then I know… I saw how the Holy Spirit really move through the people. Many were crying, some fell on the ground and others got to support them. Some fell and cried, just cried. Many spoke in tongues. And there I was… looking at everyone. At that time, I could have guaranteed I did felt something. Then we prayed for the P6 and others whoever wants to speak in tongues. I was unwilling but then I decided to go to the front. Then the pastor pray and really prayed that the Holy Spirit would come and touch us. Guess what? The next moment the people started speaking in tongues. I saw 6-7 P6 received the gift of speaking in tongues. I was so filled with awe. I didn’t feel jealour of why they could speak but I cant. I didn’t feel freaked out. I just feel happy for them. It was a rare feeling towards me.
I clapped along with them… so anyway, after that, we went for lunch. I talk to some people and we went for our luggage. There always come a time to say good bye. We got ready to go. And lastly, back at SG, we waited for our sis for an hour. Don’t ask me why. Maybe the bus just got delayed… by a lot. 
Movie Review- Avatar Rating- 9.8/10_5 stars I have high expectation for this movie. I always thought a futuristic world in CG would be real real hard or a fail. But this movie indeed took me by surprise. Its soo good. I thought getting 5 stars twice was impossible but this movie got 5 stars 4 timesss and still counting. Omg. James Cameron is not self-proclaimed the King of the World, he IS the King of the World. The story maybe cliché to some but the way it is being explained, thats what makes it so realistic. I at first thought James C could create Warcraft. CGI effects are crazily awesome. Action is not too shaky or unclear. Romance building is quite nicely done. Ideas of a new World are unbelievable. I never seen such a hard working film since Lord of the Rings. This movie really deserves 5 stars, no doubt. I bet Sam Worthington work ultra hard on this movie knowing that this is his first time doing a main actor role. U cant helped it but enjoyed the movie even if u plan to hate it. It will definitely be recommended by everyone. I really give credit to the amount of effort put it. James C has truly outdone himself. It could be his best piece of work ever! It beats every movie made in 2009 by a mile. Three times three cheers to James Cameron. PS: Fun Fact No. of words = 2300 and counting Time taken to complete post = 11 hrs, counting delay time Days to complete post = 1 day Time taken to read finish post = about 20 min Current mood = tired but I wanna watch One Piece Memorable moments = the whole day, really! i think through this whole camp, God did spoke to me. since im going 18, i dont exactly focus on getting a gf now but i just wanna focus on God first and i feel that many things are gonna bombard me. but i myself feel like a changed person after this camp. a very hyper feeling that stays in me. oh well, im believe im gonna change people, change them to be better!

I will tell u the Truth
11:58 PM hooray!! Im now off work and heading to China. I do apologize for the wrong info. I told almost everyone that im going Bei jing, but actually it was Guang Zhou. Im really sorry. Anyway, don’t worry, I gonna take lots of pic and a couple of videos too. Im gonna get new movies too. Im gonna learn new things and make use of the best of my time. And last and foremost, im gonna start to pray for my friends… 1. I’ll pray for J, pray for her left paralyzed hand. Pray that healing will fall on her, that she will knew that nothing is impossible for God. Pray for open hearts and she learn to open herself to up God and trust him. U knew… sometimes, getting a reply from her was just simply a miracle. Indeed, I still like her and will not say no to her. But yet, I can feel in my heart, its just not the time. I just want to be a friend who still cares and listen to her. A person that she needs, not want. 2. I’ll pray for boon, pray that ans that he sought for years will soon come and dawn upon him. God, show him the truth and set him free from the struggles of Life. When there is no faith, there is no hope. As it is written, ask and u will receive. Seek and u will find. Knock and the door will be open. To me, giving u a bible was the hardest thing I could ever do. Cos youre not a Christian but many told me there was nothing wrong reading a bible. I tell u the truth. I made a prayer and a promise to u. Continue to read the bible and u will see changes, changes in your family too. Love for parents no matter what as only foolish men despises their mother. Know that your parents are not perfect but u set an example as a good son. A gentle word turns away wrath but a harsh word stirs up anger. Do not plan to argue with your mum. Wisdom is found in those who take advice. A simple man believes anything but a prudent man gives thoughts to his step. Be that man. BK, I’ve seen things that I couldn’t possibly imagine. All kidding aside, im always your good friend and I willing to help up in any problem u have. One good reason, Life is not meant to suffer or regret even when the path seemed so difficult. But it is said, All hard work gains a profit. 3. I’ll pray for Markus. Father, as I know, Markie here is a Christian but I wanna pray for him as he will be starting work very soon and lord… give him strength as he may grow weary. Lord, do not let him back slide from u and let him know you are there, always there. I pray that he learn to trust your plan. Pray for open eyes that he will see the things unseen. Lord, u know, if he takes the first step to u, u will take a thousand steps nearer. But he has to take that one step and lord I ray, u give him that courage and will to take that first step. Teach him to be loving and patient. As it is said, whoever heeds correction gains understanding. A patient man have great understanding and Good understanding win favor. 4. I’ll pray for shel, pray she will continue to look to u first in any circumstances. U knew becos of her, I was changed by a mile. U knew my feelings was greatly touched and pierced by her words. And there are times where I hate my emotions a lot. But lord, u gave me a sensitive heart and I pray that u be with her wherever she goes. I know her bad points and good points. I try hard to remember them all. I just want u to be that ever-present help in times of need. Cos lord, indirectly, she taught me the true meaning of patience and faith. 5. Lastly but not least, I’ll pray for Danny and Cheryl. Lord, I know they are not chirstian. But I just wanna invite them to church. And my friends, I have not forgotten u. if u take a step to go out with me, u know entirely I will never walk away and will remain friends as I do treasure friends, a lot. Take my word for that :) I wont be updating my blod for another 10 days and after im back, im gonna write so much stuff, it will probably reach more than 3000 words, haha, seriously. Well, that’s about it. And im becoming a One piece fan. The ideas are just so cool. I like this kind of original stuff even though the animation is not very high quality. Anything u wanna say, tag me on my blog. My hp… have no connection so u cant msg me, yeah. See ya! Movie Review- The Taking of Pelham 123 Rating- 8/10__ 3.5 stars The movie moves straight into action, revealing the enemies getting into the train and taking over. The action is immediate. Gripping and intelligent, director Tony Scott has surely out done himself. Story plot is however, not clearly shown until I watched the making of the movie. Its about a guy who works so hard but he wasn’t got what he deserved so he took a part of a train with hostages and u know, he wants money. Typical terrorist movie, but makes this one slightly different is that, many are not CGI and they are using real trains with real speed. Ideas are nicely displayed as terrorist got everyone fooled and he gives no room for hesitation. This movie have done well and met my expectation (my expectation is not very easy). Never would I expect for John Travolta to say so much vulgarities that the movie becomes NC16. The movie ended pretty good too. I can say there would be any boring moment cos the starting is alr action. The only thing I didn’t expect was the bad guys dying too quickly. Other than that, I think most of u would like the movie.

Working is Tough
10:47 PM Working Now, im real busy working. But nonetheless, I can still blog since im having a break. I will start work tmr which last until sat. Sunday, I’ll be packing my stuff. 14-24 dec, im overseas. Quite crazy eh? I think so too. My job is a handyman. Its like a Sai Kang job but I really enjoyed it. If u know me, u know im real energetic and I cant just still an operate a machine for 10 hrs. I had to move around. So I indeed love a handyman job. Cos I can move around. But my job aint easy too. Its not complicated, its just tiring at some time. I work at Micron, together with Winny, Shin, Alan and boon. Im so busy cos after work, im so tired. I either watch One Piece or go to sleep. So anyway, tmr im going to work again, my new friends are very WTC especially my leader. So yeah… nothing else.
Sunday Im off to work but this time, after work, im going out with my friends. Omg! I think im gonna die but I have to endure it. So since its my 4th day at work, my trainer says I should be independent. That is like so…. COOL! Im finally gonna get hard work and stress. This means I wont have to be so Sian most of the time. But today is kinda tiring and kinda bad cos I forgotten about some important stuff. Omg, that’s bad. So I got them quickly and as a result, I forgotten about something else. So I gotta rush here and there. After work, shit! I forgotten to bring my keys. So I cant get out and have to go back to my locker and so on. That’s why I was late to meet my friends. I think late about 45 min. so boon and I got to rush again to Somerset. And the funny part starts… We got lost!!! We seriously got lost. We cant even walk out of the MRT. Shaun was suppose to meet us but we went the wrong place. So we wasted more time and met up after an hour. So everyone look the same except Shaun and Sam. Wait, I think Sam look the same, that old son of a gun and disturbs noobs. So I went to eat Yong Tau Foo and I said I wanted dry. Then the guy literally gave me dry. No sauce, no chilli, no.. nothing!! WTC man! Im not buying from that store anymore. Dam disappointing. And before me, there was also another quarrel about the price. After that, Sam said there are a lot of hot girls around the shopping mall. And I was so blur, I ran into a barrier that was in the middle of the pavement. Haha! So I kept on talking to Shaun about movies and how cool directors come about and how the media is real dumb. Indeed, he has changed a lot. He seems like saying the F word a lot but somehow, throughout the whole outing. He only said once. Or that’s what I heard. So we stroll here and there. And Sam is still being an ass around. For pete sake, he even have so much trouble buying a drink. Omg. Once a Sam, always a Sam. Its sooo Ang-ness. So anyway, the outing only lasted 2 hour plus… for me. We took a train while Shin and Ya stayed behind. I don’t know about much but I seem to like Shaun better, even he always hug me and stick around me so much times. I know Shaun was once a sore loser and hate to lose. When he lose, he curses and walks away. Ahhhhh, those were the times. He even fought with someone in the Old Ping Yi. But now, he seemed so different. Rather mature and more active but still quite like the Old-Shaun. Nevertheless, im glad he changed. A patient man has great understanding, don’t forget this Shaun :) 
look at sam 
awesome lighting!! 
look at Winston(big one) he looks like a cool guy with light shining to his hand. cool! 
what the crap is this? bro love now?!?! 
Movie Review- Happy Flight Rating- 7.5/10__2.5 stars It’s a Japanese movie about a flight, really. Its about a story of a stewardess and a co-pilot in their first ‘real’ flight. It supposed to be a comedy but I really find it more informative, slow-paced, more details about the work in an aeroplane than entertaining. It did show about how rush the stewardess have to be and how they have to put on ‘that’ smile for 24/7. The movie tries hard to be funny but it didn’t do too well, I would say. There are no main characters or anyone playing a main role. It shows about 3 stewardesses, a co-pilot, a repair man, people in the control tower, people in a staff room, and a few passengers. Its about a bird ruining a flight and they have to turn back. I have no other summary, this is the best. Every movie like this have no twist, no bad guys, just a normal happy ending. Its good but its gets too cliché. I will leave best for the kids. |
