As many are having exams and studying feverently in this period, here is something for you:
" 别人说把考试完全交给神时, 其实是叫你把考试成绩交给神。
读书预备考试而是一个与神同工的一个过程。
所以书还是要自己读,成绩才要交托给神。”
所有在读书的朋友们,读书加油吧!

New Keyboard!

I finally got my own keyboard from ebay!!!
Paid $140 for it.
But the bad thing is...it does not contains an adapter...The owner said this keyboard did not come with the adapter right from the start when she bought it....
But well...nvm la.

Really have to thanks Tyan Tyan for accpompanying me all the way there to collect the keyboard in AMK.

The owner was quite nice.After we went inside her house, she offered us drinks and even gave me a small trolley to pull the keyboard back.

Despite these helps, I still had a hard time bringing it back...cos I stay in Tampines...so far far away sia...Haha
Hence, I carried it up and down to reach AMK mrt station to take train to Khatib mrt station.
Then I hugged the keyboard all the way up the bridge and down to take bus 969...by that time, my shirt is totally wet with sweat sia...

When boarding the bus...horror came!
Everything seems to fall apart!haha..
Hence I am carrying 4 things (Keyboard, trolley, bicycle hook and wallet) at the same time!
Gosh...so super crumsy sia..haha!
With much effort, I manage to get a seat...phew!
When I finally got home, I felt so tired...but it's a happy tiredness.haha!
Felt such great satisfaction of achievement to have brought this heavy thing all the way back without having to take a cab.Haha!

Anyway, signed up for the Keyboard course with Zhuo Wei, at the Believer Music website.
Gonna start my lessons on 20th May.
So exciting sia...If after the classes still cannot play then will cry lor...cos total spending $300 plus for the course.

So for this keyboard thingy, I spend ard $500...so must learn hard!Otherwise will waste all my hard earn money liao..Haha..

Cheers

Taste of Honey:
Got this from the conference I went to...

"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him."

The day before I left Singapore.....

Went for the dance practise again last thursday...and oh gosh...they had changed the song...
Look at the video..they tell me to act as the host... -.-"


Think I am going to die as I have serious psychomotor retardation and cannot coordinate properly...and I am the only guy...so the dance will be more like a joke than a dance...haha.
Already shoot out ideas such as hiring cheerleading groups to do the show instead or changing it to a all girls song (then i can escape from this hell...)..but well..all effort are in vain...think like gotta just dive into it and make a joke out of myself liao...as always...haha

Anyway, went for a run in the evening again around IMH..and the timing is 25:07 mins.
So happy about the improvement...but after the run really feel like dying...Haha..and the fats around my tummy seems to be still there and is totally ignorant to my effort to trying to get rid of it...argh...

Then went gym and badminton with peixiang, weicai, william and kobe...
As a constant loser...I did lotsa push ups again..Haha..
I may not be skillful enough to beat them in the game, but I am strong enough to take on the push ups!So come on man!Let's fight again!!!!Hee

After that went Macdonald to eat my favorite double cheeseburger with peixiang and weicai...so yummy....but so unhealthy after exercise...no wonder my fats are still there...Haha!

Reached home around 12am then I started packing for the trip to Melaka on the next day...
So slpy.........

Cheers
Tommy

Saw an email and thought this is a dare that is sure fun to do....

" While riding in an lift, gasp dramatically every time the doors open."

Everyone would be so suprise that you are so shock and suprise to see them...Haha...
Maybe I will try it tml in office..haha..

Good Friday till Easter....

Whao...Although it's suppose to be a long weekend...it ended up even more tiring than my normal work days.Haha!But well, all these are happily tired,So still worth it...hee.
Good Friday

Went to church right in the morning and Calista agreed to join me for Good Friday service on that day!
Hooray!
But well..we have to sit on the 4th level and the 3rd level is full....so it's like watching a black and white television throughout the whole service...


After that went to Marina Square for lunch and ate Carls Junior where it's buger is not junior size at all...SO BIG la! But i think it's already smaller than before...


After the filling lunch, me,zhifeng, Calista, Cosina and Wila went to the new shopping centre in bugis.
We had been procrastinating to whether want to go or not as the rain was pouring down like "SKY DIAHORREA"...and Calista's beautiful shoe cannot be wet as the ink might smurge...
Zhifeng then say just have faith and just go to Bugis and the sky will be cleared.
Amazing thing is that really thank God that the rain really stopped after we reached!Haha!
Really like Moses open red sea.haha
Wanted to watch "The Sniper", but no tickets, so in the end watched "12 rounds".
The movie is not bad la...quite exciting storyline and clever plot.


After that went to Colin's birthday at Minds Cafe in Boat Quay. Had a few rounds of games and went to St James for some KTV and a drink.

Colin's birthday!!!

At St Jame's KTV section

Pearl and I

Drink mixing!


In the end reached home at 5am in the morning...can really die sia....think my age really old and cannot take this kinda hectic schedule liao.haha!

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Saturday...

Woke up at 11 and then realised that I have not make a feedback form for Street Evangelism later.
So done feedback form, got to church and went for Street Evangelism.
While we were on our way to our sites to our respective street evangelism area, there is no rain.
However, it poured down heavily when we reached our sites and started finding ppl to share what easter is. SO AMAZING!!!!Cos the rain trapped many ppl in the shelter area, giving us more chances to share with people.Haha.
And when we were ready to leave and return to church, THE RAIN STOPPED!
Thank God sia!Otherwise we will all be 落汤鸡 already.Haha...
but till now I still haven had anything in my stomach...So hungry...


Then after street evangelism, got Antioch's prayer meeting...So all the way till 930pm then I can have a bite on something...Hope all these can make me thinner ba.Haha!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Easter Day!!!!!!!


Church starts at 2pm today! And I am just so happy about it!
At least can have some rest ...phew...
But still have to wake up at 11am.
Not bad la, ate smoke salmon, fried rice, big sausage and some veggie for breakfast...
What a heavy breakfast sia...haha.


Cheers
Tommy

So by increasing what you have, you can then increase on what you can give!

Reviving blog....

As an delibrate effort to revive my pathetic blog,
I shall work hard and be consistent in my blogging...
So I am going to just blog about what ever things regardless significant or not

whenever I remembers it and have the time.haha.

Anyway, after work yesterday, went jogging...and for 3 rounds around my beloved workplace,
I manage to hit 26:26mins. HOORAY!haha...10 secs faster than my timing last week...
Aiming to get to 25mins for the tiring upslopes/downslopes/turn here/turn there 4.8Km rounds!!!!

After that, I hit the gym and go to play badminton with my 师傅 Kobe, dragonboater Weicai and Wang Lee Hom look-alike PeiXiang.
But well, expectedly...I was trashed till jialat jialat.

Even before Kobe and Weicai came, Peixiang already trashed me for 4 rounds, pumping me with 80 push ups ...
After the rest came...all the other punishments came rushing to me...

working me out worse than army training....Haha.
Must really train up liao.....such that I can tahan all the push ups and stuff after losing...

think that will be much easier than training up to beat them in the game..
cos they are too pro in it liao..haha!

Anyway, went for this dance practice for the medical social worker 60th anniversary symposium today and saw my old classmates Diana and Christine!!!
So excited to see familiar faces over there.
But sad thing is they are part of the organising team and not gg to dance with me...sadded...Hahaa.
Think we gonna dance with the song "Welcome to the 60's" from the Movie "Hairspray".



try to see the video till the end!

Quite a fun song and quite appropiate for our 60th anniversary.

But hopefully they will only need girls to do the dance such that I can be left out of it ba.haha...

Ok, gonna stop here...otherwise too much words nobody wana see also...

as if anybody is seeing it right now..haha..

Cheers
