I'm so proud of her!

Last sunday, 7 of us went to watch Fantastic 4. It was good la :)
Jessica Alba, my ex-gf, she lost some weight due to our break up but still manage to look quite hot. Not bad not bad... according to the girl, FY, Johny the 'human torch' is STEEAMMINNNGGG hot. Really meh? You haven't seen me in.. nevermind.
Anyway I wanna tell you that we had the BEST seat in the house. Middle row, middle seats. I could hear the THX sound just right - back, front, left, right, back front, back right... etc.
How did we get it?
215pm - We went to Cineleisure for 320pm show and it was packed with ppl. The ticket lines were so long that the 'foyer' couldn't contain it and was making around the corner. We're hoping to get those tickets that were not picked up via phone bookings. Those bookings are cancelled 45mins before show time.
220pm - The line hardly move!!! Tickets going fast! Eric prayed and said to Liping: I feel God saying that He will give us the ticket today :) Yay! He thought he looked cool, composed, as his ego knows no bounds but wife says he looked anxious- slightly. Scared to believe also. (Can't fool the missus)
225pm - almost to the counter.... sometimes, all phone bookings are picked up....
228pm - Cyn said: if the seats are within 5 rows to the front then she rather not watch! Alamak! more conditions, less chances of getting tickets. No tickets, little hope!
230pm - At the counter - 10mins earlier than anticipated to pick up phone booking cancellation. Woman found us 7 seats. Ngam ngam for all of us. Wah!!!!!! She sold us the phone booking tickets because she said sometimes they open them slightly early.
231pm - Eric became 'hero' ! Wife say Eric got so much faith :) Eric also amazed. Everyone thanked God!
...... later that day at about 730pm, we went to DU for dinner. No parking.
Eric prayed and again God answered - parking just in front of eating place :) Sweet, really sweet.
I'm so amazed actually that God took attention in our movie watching and car parking. It's awesome. I'm more blessed to hear later that KH actually later said,"... when he saw that God answered Eric's prayer for car park... I keep quiet already....."
He kept quiet perhaps because he was amazed that God answered? I was amazed too hahaha but most of all, I hope this true story of my Sunday adventure cheers you up and reminds us that God actually loves us so much that He cared... and gave us the best seats in the house, the best parking.... and somewhere among His best - His son, Jesus Christ.
What a start to the week really...

26th August 2007 - 10km RUN
I have had such a tough week... and really looking forward to the weekend right now. Spend some time with wife, doing some runs, eat some delicious home cooked food, read.....
oh yeah, I've also decided to do my first run at Subang Jaya - 10km. 26th August 2007. Now to train for it! I'm quite excited by it really because I have never been able to run when I was in school. Always the last few in any runs, I dread the yearly 2.4km 'jog exam'.... I don't remember much except my friends - and the chicks - over taking me.... again and again (coz we ran in the school track).
... and again.
During my preparation for the KK trip, I started jogging. This time really slowly. In the beginning, I jog really slowly. Like slower than the auntie walking that kind! Hahaha.... but slowly, the body adjusted, strengthen...
Months down the road, I am actually enjoying my jog. I'm still slow (I just timed 2km at 14min) but I'm having fun... trying to break my 5km jog barrier :) So 10km is pretty ambitious really!
ya I know! I can actually say I want to break the 5km barrier! Months ago I was struggling in my 1st km! I'm hoping to go for a 1/2 marathon or a marathon next year.. kekeke..
Praise God!

So much difference.....
I've always knownt that my camera - a simple Canon Powershot A700 - has given me a lot of noise, especially for the night shots.
I've tried to work with a lower ISO but it still seems high.... well thanks to digital manipulation :)

I want to be blessed
I do.
There was a report some day ago about a church preaching the 'prosperity gospel' in Africa. It's a place with severe poverty and critics say that they are a cult.
Don't you just love it when newspaper write, "...critics say....." @#$#@% (Internet- critics have reportedly more smellier shit than normal ppl and critics of the critics says they also have more shit than normal..... )
Now I'm not saying that this church is a cult or not. They could be, I don't know. But is preaching prosperity in a place of severe poverty bad?
Would it then be bad to preach so that the blind can see? or that the lame can walk? or that the sick can be healthy? So why not the poor shall know no lack? (Someone said, "as if we buay kau suay!" )
Some christians may be shocked by this. What else should the church be preaching? Oh you sinners who are saved, you were blind and now more blinder. You thought you were lame, now you're lamer! muahahahahahah wah you're sick ah? cham liao... sure sicker (I know, I sound like a psycho.. keke )
I just think that many people feel that money and god don't mix. That's wrong. The greed for money and God don't mix as no man can serve 2 masters.
If you still don't believe me then I suggest you stop blessing others.
Yes, stop saying God bless you.
Why? because bless in the NT mostly means - 'eulogeo' - is the original Greek word for 'blessed', meaning favoured of God, to celebrate with praises, consecrate a thing with prayer, to cause to prosper or make happy, to bestow blessings on.
Yup, it's there.. to make prosper and in the blessings from the law. Fu yoh!
So God bless me. Bless my readers. Bless all of us abundantly so that we may know you more - the power of your ressurection, the depths of your love and the wonders of your grace. In Jesus's name I pray.
Amen.

More spirituality
A good friend ask how come you were not in *enter church event* ? It's the best ever and s/he has learnt the most this time.... man you don't know what you missed! Man.
Recently it's the MCCC.
I've no doubt that I probably missed some stuff. Some great stuff too but why should I be there?
I mean, if I don't go would I be less spiritual or would I be more? Would I have grown more godly character if I went? .... during the time of MCCC it was the first time I experience God's healing, a time where I see God answering our prayers for weather. How could any sermon give me the experience I had with God during those 25 hours of climbing up and down. Oh... and the beauty of God's creation - the mountains, clouds.... and the great company! :)
I know that my friends mean well, and they're excited about the stuffs they learn. I know. When I learn something new I get so excited I tell everyone about it and most time shove it down their throats! Which I should have learn by now that it is the WRONG thing to do. hehehe but I still do it... arrghhh!!!!!!
So why should I be there? Unless God tells me to.
Recently there was Taming the Tiger. Many people went and said, "WOW!...." Then what?
I remember I was there during the prophetic conferences.... the many ppl around me when "WOW!..." Then?
Edmund Chan came to DUMC for MCCC a couple of years ago. Then ppl was saying the same thing.. it's the BEST thing! REALLY! ..Har? You didn't go? Wah.. why la.. you should have because.. well I've learnt so much.
Couple years down the road... could we remember what he was teaching?
I'm not saying that we shouldn't go. No. I feel that we should go. In fact go for as much as we can because listening about things of God is great and increases our faith....
But remember what Edmund Chan taught about the story of martha and mary. Mary has chosen the one thing that is needful, it shall not be taken away from her.
I believe we need to find that one thing for us - that place of restedness in Him - and know that we're where God wants us to be. Then Relax. Have some fun then have more. Love.

Miracles in KK
It's been almost one week since we got back from our hike and memories of it is starting to fade... sadly, that's how forgetful I am. Partly because my muscle aches are gone! yay! Partly the busyness of KL has started to creep back into my life!
However, I want to take some time to remember the good things God has done for us in our trip. I wanted to write ALL the good things God has done for us... but that would not be possible because I believe He has done many many many many good things for us and we are only conscious about some of them, perhaps even a small portion of them.
Firstly, we got there in one piece and got back in better shape :)
Secondly, we had a friend in Sabah who was so kind to ferry us around, show us around and bring us to some of the good makan spots :)
Thirdly, the company of friends was great. All of us has our own quirkyness which made the whole team 'colourful'
Then, there was good weather for the 2 days that we climbed Mount KK. See , the guides have been telling us that it has been raining VERY heavily EVERYDAY. When we were decending, the guides were chasing us a little so that we don't have to get caught in the rain. We weren't so worried because God said He'll hold the rain and He did. Just slight drizzle, nothing heavy.
Then, there was my hamstring. I pulled my left hamstring 2/3 weeks before the climb. The doc says 6 weeks to heal. So when I climbed I was careful not to put too much strain on the left leg, turns out my right leg was strained and I pulled my right hamstring on the way down. Same spot somemore. So I claimed His promises that He will heal me - by His stripes I'm healed. The pain subsided and I was able to walk down without any pain! Few days now, still no pain.
Then, the backpacker place we stayed in was very clean, friendly, well equiped and most of all cheap!
Lastly, when I got home I tried to call mom. She didn't answer. Apparently she accidentally cut her wrist - just missing the veins while she was doing some house chores. I was so shocked and worried. She told me calmly later that she's alright already. Doc say the cut just missed the veins a liiiiittttttllllleeee biiiit. Wah. Thank you God for taking care of my mom!
Thank God for a restful, fun, and adventurous holiday!

serene kk
The trip to Mount KK was great :)
We actually made it. It was so great. The trip was super grueling but fun.
For one week, it was serene. The only stress was the never-ending steps in the BEAUTIFUL jungle - without snakes or leeches - good.
The only noise was the faint waterfall in the distant or the chirping of the birds. :) - gooder
We drank water from the mountains - it's sweet, refreshing... like 10000 times better than diamond water. I found out, natural untreated water is very tasty! - very gooder
The scenery at the top is breath taking - very goodest!
Muahahahahaha.. and we did all this while you were working!
We started our hike from Mesilau on Friday morning about 8am at about 2000 meters above sea level. After about 9 hours, at about 5pm we reached Laban Rata at about 3300 meter. During the 9 hours, we saw the vegetation change. We moved from under the clouds to 'inside' to 'above'. When we are 'inside' it seems we were in the enchanted island, very shiok la. Then when we made our way above the clouds, it was so cool. I feel like I can almost jump down to a pillow of cloud cushioning my fall.
We then rested till 130am then we started our climb to the top - Low's Peak. We reached there about 530am just in time for the sunrise. We then made our way down at about 630am ? I dunno because I was very very very very freaking cold. We reached back at Laban Rata at about 1030am, had some food, packed and then head back down to Timpohon at 12pm. We reached at 600pm.
During the trip we ate tonnes of musli bars, sneaker bars and RM33 buffet- wahlau we dunno how to hunt in the jungle ok! The food up there was expensive but I guess no one is complaining. I wasn't because why? I didn't want to run down hill to get nasi lemak for my dinner. The wise thing is to pay and eat. Quote from grace," I don't want to see or eat another musli bar ever again... for a long time la..."
hahahahahahahaha
