:: Studying ::

I have been searching for a best environment for me to study for this few days.

#1) My bedroom
Advantages
- Can go toilet without bothering about my notes, valuables on the table.
- Can get stuff within my reach.
- Can play music in my playlist in imeem.

Disadvantages
- My bed wants to fellowship with me and vice versa.

#2) Mac'Donalds
Advantages
- Got air-con.
- Can eat/drink as I love to eat/drink. =P

Disadvantages
- Get distracted by beautiful people easily. (Just like Pastor Kong says man driving and looking at pretty girls at the same time)
- Cannot leave my things behind when I am studying alone if I need to go toilet.
- Get tired easily.
- Tempted to spent on food/drinks when you see people buy while you study.

#3) Library
Advantages
- Quiet environment
- Got air-con

Disadvantages
- May get too comfortable till I fall asleep.
- Cannot leave my things unattended.

So where is the best place to study???? No perfect place actually.. Haha. All up to me.. =)

Going to church office to work tml for a day. =) Pretty excited about it.. Friday and next Monday I will be working at Munich Re. Haha.. Thank God for the provision. I believe there's more to come.

:: Wake Up ::

It's a high time to wake up for me. Having a week break.. Wanna chiong my 3 modules which I didn't really pay attention or catch what the lecturer is teaching. Hopefully I can study till the same pace as what my lecturer stop. No time to waste. 

The last batch of ACCA results just came out, and the results was rather disappointing. For the module F5, the global passing rate is only 50% and for the module F8 is about 30% passes. =.= Am I starting to regret to choose this school? Haha.. Well, since I started the race, I might as well as finished it strong. =) I can decide if I want to do well in life anot, is entirely up to me. 

I am really amazed of how Pastor Kong can really spent his time replying messages to people in facebook, twitter, emails, etc. He's really a busy man and yet he can still have the time to do this simple things. I feel very bless to be in CHC, pastor by him. Sharon always say that we have been coming to one of the best church in Singapore, and I totally agree to her of what she has says. =) Although CHC might not be a perfect church, but this is where it bring changes to my life. Meeting a group of wonderful CGM and friends. Above all, this is the church of the living God, a church where by its makes you feel home and love. =)

My agent just call me today and asked me if I am interested in an admin job which last till August, and it pays $6.50/hour. Well, I agreed, I couldn't asked for more. Haha.. Maybe one of their staff signed up for SOT which last till August and that's why they are hiring? Haha.. Hopefully I am shortlisted for the job. =) 

Talking above the differences of the top 5 needs of man & woman in church, I am really excited and looking forward to the last 2 points this weekend. =) However, this also come to let me know that its not just about knowing the needs of man and woman, but how about God? I remembered Pastor Tan shared in one of the services before, that the only need of God is that He will want to fellowship with His children. 

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
- John 3:16

God love us and He desire to fellowship with us. Have I meet His needs? Sadly to say.. No.. In fact, this few days I have been pretty spoilt.. My mind is full of nonsense, and I am often tempted. I almost give up sometimes, thinking that its impossible for me to breakthrough the area I am struggling in. It's like.. "No medicine can cure me that kind already". I know where is the medicine, but I am just too comfortable of where I am. The prescription of the medicine is the bible, it's just like what the doctor will write on the paper. God has written His prescription in the bible. So what's the medicine does? It will renew our mind day by day, slowly by surely. More good inputs than the bad inputs in my mind, a refreshing bath to our soul, opening up our spiritual eyes to the things unseen.

Well.. There I go again.. Always talk alot, but no action and back to the same shape again. Time to wake up, NAT!!

:: Randomness ::

I am desperately looking for a job! I am in need of money. Thank God for the GST package that's coming in on the 01.03.09. However, I can't survive much on that. Sometimes it's just so hard to ask money from my family members. 

It's like "Come on, 24 years old already, got hands and legs, can go and work and earn money". Should I really go and work in the F&B industry despite the fact that I may have to sacrifice my church and weekends? Sometimes, going to Expo for Service is a struggle for me, because there's insufficient value in my ez-link card, and I have no choice but to borrow from my sister. Sometimes, my sister might not even have the amount at all, and I just barely make it, praying that my dad will just bless me with $50. 

Should I or should I not? My parents are rather unhappy with me already. Haiz.. Stupid me.. Should have study harder in Sec School.. Den go to Business Sch in SP, den no need take engineering liao.. God, show me a way, will you? 

I always say I have the urge to really work in F&B industry because the demand is always there, but somehow.. I stopped. I remembered how difficult it was when I work in Seoul Garden during my poly days. My supervisor will always find faults with me and will always asked me not to go church(CHC), and he will always bully me, and it was a horrible working experience that I decided to quit. There was once that he scolded me till I cried during work, all because I topped up the vegetables slowly. When he asked me to do task A, after awhile, he asked me to do task B. When I do task B, he scolded me and said why I never do task A. Even my colleagues can tell that he is making fun of me and bullying me. How I wished that I could have the courage to just give him a tight slap and walk out of the workplace. Anyway, I don't really care about him le, that's 4 years ago...

Maybe what I said might surprise some of you? Haha.. Different people will react differently. Some think no action, like me. Haha..  However, come to think of it, is that really a heavenly working place on Earth? Maybe, maybe not. So should I be so picky during this bad economic times? Should I just bear all the scoldings from any supervisors if I were to come across any stupid managers? Of course, not all employers are bad, some employees are bad themself too.. Life's like that I suppose. 

I really really hope that the 3 resumes that I send out just now will have positive feedbacks. God.. Show me how to live. . . . . . .

:: Ministry ::

Never ever under estimate the every single small details! It's the big mistake I made today at Jurong West and it can be avoided! *Someone spanked me please!!!

Before Service 4 start, I was checking songs with Brother Poh. He checked and it was in correct order. Den he told me that the sequence was the same for yesterday(Service 1). I told him that I didn't have it and thus he wrote for me the sequence. However, it did changed abit but I didn't update my team mates eight storeys above. 

Anyway, it ended up the congregation to sing wrongly. (A big sorry to those who attended Service 4!) They sang the chorus(because the LED is showing the chorus - input from 4th storey) because I didn't tell them that Poh will be singing the second verse! Haiz. . . . .  What's wrong with me recently? Always didn't get the things right. 

Hopefully... This is the great lesson learnt. Every SINGLE little details do play an important role to run a service smoothly. This is what I have done, a mistake that can be avoided, but I choose to ignore it and thinking that it isn't important. 

Overall.. Service is still good. Thank God for that. =)

Chorus Board will be having a huge huge change in the history of CHC. Haha.. I make it sounds very kua zhang right? Haha.. We could be changing our ministry name by this year. Why are we call Chorus Board? This is because we are using a Board during Hollywood days. However, with the graphics and new stuff introduce into this ministry, we will be changing our name, to move on with technology. This is also to let the church know more about our ministry. You can just ask anyone in the church, they might not know what is Chorus Board doing. Haha.. 

Some changes also include changing of teams. JW will only have 2 teams in future, meaning to say we might be serving both Sat and Sunday on alternate weeks. Also meaning to say that I can't attend Service with W421 for alternate weeks. But, nothing is ever confirm yet. I might go over to Expo? I am not sure.. 

One of the leaders will also be going to Taiwan at the end of this year. I think she is migrating over there. Pascale, you wanna join her? Haha.. She is an actor, and has acted in a few of shows and play, but not a full time actor. She's a pretty and gorgeous lady. I think she's going over there to pursue her dreams in the entertainment industries. Hopefully she can succeed and make a name for herself there. =) Jia You!! (Or she may be just wanting to have a change in environment? I am not sure)

So... I attended a Water Baptism class today. It was good. =) Still looking through potential names for me. Meaning of my name to be "Creative, love by God & Happy man". =)

:: Updates (2) ::

Recently.. I have found myself especially liking someone that I knew for about a month. Haha.. But well, its a no no. . . Because of a prayer that I made to God two days ago. 

This stage that I am going through is call One Sided love. Haha.. Is love important to me? Yes, of course. I long to find one partner to share my everything, but I am not ready. I am too childish, I do not have a stable financial income either. So why bother to find? Haha. . . Sometimes, thoughts of marriage just came into my mind. If I get married in future, I will find it weird to share bed with my partner, because I am too comfortable sleeping alone. Maybe I will kick the person out of the bed when I am sleeping? I also can't imagine myself being naked to a person who is of the opposite sex. It's like "xiu xiu". Haha.. =P Wei Ming, that's too early to think of such things!!!

I was wondering. . .  If I never stepped into church four years ago, what would my life be like? I can imagine that my life will be pretty messed up. Maybe I will enjoy myself even more, but I think that this happiness doesn't last forever. The world cannot give the love which God will give. Although some people were to find something they really love, but will the love last?

Why come to church, some people might asked? I have a poly christian classmate who doesn't go to church and told me that as long as he have God in his heart, make prayer every night, it will be good enough for him already. To see pretty girls, some of my friends will asked. What's your motive for coming to church? My motive? Sometimes. . . It could be just a routine to me, every Fri go CG, every Sat go Service. It can get so routine that I would forget the purpose of coming to church is to experience God, to grow in the Lord, to anticipate what God will be doing in our church. 

Why do people need to go church? I believe that people should go to church because this is the place where people gather together to experience God, the love of the believers, positive influence, to increase in their knowledge of the Word of God - as different believers all have different gifts, the gift of the Pastors and CGL will benefit the believers, to also help out and to serve God with our gift and talents in the church - so that we will not be clueless what we can do when we go to heaven.

Sometimes. . .  I might be too tempted to slight to the world to enjoy. But, I pray that I will know of the decision that I pray to God. Not easy, but I am gonna try. 

P.S: I got a date this Valentine's Day! Hehe.. (To attend a school talk at a hotel(Erhem.. ) with my friend) =P I hope that my friend will ask me out of a meal or a movie! *Shy. . . Hehe...*

:: Updates ::

So long never blog le. Too lazy to do so. Haha.. Anyway, recently I have been addicted to "Pet Society" in Facebook! It's just so so fun! Haha.. I love this game because you can get to decorated your Pet's house as if you are designing your own homes, and you can also get to earn the coins at the same time. Haha.. Well, I don't really care if people were to say I am a kid or what, so old already still play that kind of game. Haha.. =)

I have the thoughts of going for Water Baptism this coming Feb.. That's about 20 more days!! Oh man.. I can't believe its happening so fast! When Pastor Kong read to us the church events in early Jan.. I though it will still be so far away, but the TIME is now! Haha.. I don't have any white shirts and pants! =( And. . . . Well, I will want to pray more about it first ba. What name should I have? Or should I ask Sharon to help me? I have no preference of any English names. Maybe Wayne, cuz it sounds very Wei Ming. Haha.. =P

Pastor Kong is so so funny today with Pastor Tan!! Haha.. I also saw 3 female TV actresses! They are just so pretty! Hahaa.. How I wish that I can shake hands with them. =) I also saw a couple who are judges from a Channel 8 variety show, "3 Dishes 1 Soup". Haha.. So cool!! I was telling Glenn that I won't get tired to see the celebrities talking to Pastors! 

Hospitality ministry needs people, and I am thinking if I want to go over. I love my current ministry very much, and I am stuck in a decision to go or not to go. Quite a hard decision for me to make, but I guess soon I will come out with an answer. Maybe, when Chorus Board @ JW have more people I will go over to HM. However, Meng Wei says that there will be a huge change in Chorus Board in Feb, and I wonder what's that? Will I go back to Expo to serve? It remains a mystery.

Valentine's Day is coming up! I want to find a part-time partner for a show only! Hahaha.. Any interested party? =P You can call me at 9_ _ 4_ _ _ 0! Haha.. =P
