Fluffy

This is Fluffy the cat. A couple of months ago, as I walked towards the lift one night, I saw her walking towards me from the next block. How pretty she is.. a lovely cat.. I sayang it as usual (see I never learn from the previous incident whereby I got bitten :P)

when I told my younger sis about it, I realiase she notice Fluffy too. Yup my sis call her Fluffy.. I think everyone likes Fluffy Why? I been seeing quite a few people feeding her, sayanging her. I think they all call her Fluffy too , accordinly to my Elder sis, she heard people calling it Fluffy..

My younger sis bought cat food just for her. Aint Fluffy blessed? The other day when we brought Tin and Crystal to feed her, a cat which passes us smell the cat food and we fed it too. See because of a blessed Fluffy, the other cat get fed too. A hungry cat. Noted a collar around it, wonder who abandon both of them.   Who knows maybe Fluffy isn't being abandon?

Anyway I can't help but to think of this today Mathew 6:25-30



25"(A)For this reason I say to you, do not be (B)worried about your life, as to what you will eat or what you will drink; nor for your body, as to what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?



26"(C)Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?






27"And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?






28"And why are you )worried about clothing? Observe how the lilies of the field grow; they do not toil nor do they spin,






29yet I say to you that not even )Solomon in all his glory clothed himself like one of these.






30"But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which is alive today and tomorrow is thrown into the furnace, will He not much more clothe you? You of little faith!

If Fluffy is being well fed, let alone me who is the precious beloved child of God. 

No Limits 泳闯琴关- ending theme (piano instrumental)

I think this person is so talented, played just by hearing it on TV. I wonder what is the title of this song... nice

North korea-The hotel room

Below photos are taken while staying in the hotel in woonsan. A old hotel in the outskirt. When I first step into the hotel room, I am like wow. this is so old, its like back to the 60ss.. check it out...  Now I still have a rememberance of this hotel . Why? I cut my knee, still has a long scar at my right knee.. quite a bad cut. accidenaly knock against the bathtop and well the edge of the sink is not smooth thus i cut myself :(

The telephone at one of the floors  lobby, it actually can work.. cos it rings

In the hotel room... check out the english words on the card

y

Room Key

Reminds me of my childhood..

Sharp TV. My familly has one Sharp TV when I was a young kid

We all almost laugh out when we see the quilt cover.. so.... Russian style and 60s...

DPRK- random shots

Pictures all taken while I was in the coach, so photos not in focus, and kind of blur.  While on the road, hardly see any vechicles. Basically people there can't handle vehicles, petrol is imported and thus expensive. Some of the cars that exists belong to peopel who come back from Japan, etc. 

Most of the North koreans walk. Yes its common for them to walk a long distance easily a few kilometres. If there is a walkaton, perhaps they would win.

see the children bathing in the drain, woman washing clothes.

DMZ continues

That is the south korea side facing the North korea.. can see the cameras observing the North. someone ask the officer where are the Amercians and South soldiers, the reply was that they are probably hiding inside the building. hmm....  Btw the room  that is above is ine one of these blue building. the middle one.

NDP 2010 Theme Song - "Song for Singapore" by Corrinne May!

I actually forgot to post this... only remember to post in FB.... come here it is.. As usual Corrine is the talented one to come up with this song.

Am proud to be a Singaporean. You are my brother, my sisters I am thankful for...Come together everybody, fly the flag and share our story, live teh wildest dream......

Serenity Prayer

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

Where is the answer

I think deep in my heart I have an answer but still confused. When you have too much choices, this becomes a dilemna ... Happy for Neighbour' breakthough, still waiting for mine.

Am realy going to miss her, the though of it just mad me tear...........sob.... is hard to have a fellow sis in christ at work.

Think the lord has made me stay 2 years ago to witnes the wonder work His in changing her and giving her the breakthrough. Now dear lord, next will be me... will ya remove those torns and shield me from those evil xiao ren.

Pieces of my heart

Can't remember if I ever share .. click on the icon

I think i shd consider i am blessed

Was out with the kids from Beyond services binging them to Mints toy musuem. Was deeply touched by what Miss Raja said. She gave up her job and went full time into social service, intially she wanted to go to other countries but then she realise in Singapore there still exist these kids that needed help. yes in modern singapore, its something that most Singaporeans won't hear or know of.

Ok I do know since I did visit some childrens home, old folks home when I was in Leo club and went on to organise a trip (sad to say only one trip) during my 3rd year in poly . Yup first 2 years I was with NP Strings, 3rd yea I went MIA there and join Leo club :P.


As Miss Raja tells us their stories, it just sound familar Ok well these children are usually people of low income disadvantage problems. More often than not, quite alot of them have parents who are drug addicts, jailbirds. You know so many years have passed since I grad from poly and the same story still goes on. haiz..

the kids helping their parents to inject the drugs in, etc etc. I can of admire how Miss Raja handle the kids, make a difference in their lives.

Seeing these kids, I think I am blessed, I don't have to go through what they go through. Some of these kids are well behaved,  some are naughty (in our eyes of cos0, but very often these kids are street smart. Given the right training, these kids will make it one of these days

Thats what I believe. :)

DMZ continues

Hmm this is interesting, this little room is the only one whereby the north and south soldiers from both sides may patrol inside the DMZ, but they may not cross the MDL. See the 2 South korean soliders standing on the other corner. I was actualy expecting high tension due to that torpedo incident but guess there are more soldiers and American soldiers on the South korean side hidden in the buildings.

Now there are two foreigners whom I think are Americans. I can't help but to say they are dumb. They actually posed infront of the 2 south korean soldiers (excused me, thse 2 soldiers are not monuments). Now Now with flash going on, these 2 soldiers face turned. they are like Mr Bao now.. (bao gong i mean) and well they look fierce and start to walk towards us, and our guide from the military quickly get us out of the room.......... Arrg all these to these 2, I was trying to take more photos . And oh yes I didn't have my flash on. Damn it..

SJ is now in South korea

The South Korean soldiers

DMZ continues

DMZ continues

War-Sad to see all these

DPRK -DMZ zone

How exciting, ths is the main highlight that I was waiting for. A visit to DMZ area

Per wikipedia: DMZ

The Korean Demilitarized Zone (Korean: 한반도 비무장지대) is a strip of land running across the Korean Peninsula that serves as a buffer zone between North and South Korea. The DMZ cuts the Korean Peninsula roughly in half, crossing the 38th parallel on an angle, with the west end of the DMZ lying south of the parallel and the east end lying north of it. It is 250 kilometres (160 miles) long [1], approximately 4 km (2.5 mi) wide and is the most heavily militarized border in the world.

Security is tight, we ain't allow to take photos while in the tour bus  from a certain point all the way to DMZ area. and we have to go thru quite a few checkpoints, with amry officer coming up to check. Now was it 4 checkpoints or .. can't remember need to check my note book which I can't remember where I kept it :p 

A military officer was our guide, we were together with another tour group, Some of them are from US, quite surprise that North korea allows Americans in. Hmm, there military officer is pretty stern and fierce and later on i realise why they assign him.  Ya, two of them t offende the South korean soldiers, see my last posting on DMZ and you would know why.

This is the map

Thank you lord

2 Sisters reminded me. I think I should really thank the lord and don' t be so ungrateful fellow.

Got an award today for doing the forecast piece which I spend alot of time for the past 2 years trying to revamp the whole process. was a surprise but really i feel nothing. Nothing exciting if u were to ask me. I do have peopel telling me well deserve and its long overdue anyway... I really feel nothing. If this award has come earlier before that incident , I probably would have jump for joy.

But this time round after all that has happened, it does not mattered anything to me now.  Everyone asking a treat from me now .(strange that when u have award, everyone would just suddenly become friendly to you, congratulating you... its not even a promotion or what)  nah... I am just totally can't be bothered.  Bad huh me?  Well basicaly I am just neutral.... 心灰意冷吧??

If I have a chance to tell my boss I would tell her: You know what I want, I can't be bothered with this award...

I greedy? Nope I am not.. what matters more is something else which I know if I continue to stay here, I won't get it..... and giving me this award as a sweetner, sorry I don't buy this trick anymore...

Nevertheless. I thank you lord for giving me this award. Someday I will see how this will change my life though I can't see it now.

Corrinne May - Let It Go

As I listen to this song again, suddenly I seem to have more indepth view of it. Don't know how to describe. 另一种体会吧?




Let It go - Corrine May

I think we've been here before


I recognize this place

I've seen the marks of confusion

wipe out a single sign of grace

And I don't want to play anymore

Not when the stakes are so high

So before we circle round once more

I'm gonna lay down,

Lay down my pride



Let it go, let it be

Don't waste all your emotion on this

tit-for-tat machine

Let it go, let it be

Let it go



I turn on the TV

and it screams out at me

Nothing seems to have changed

since the start of Adam and Eve

So we're waiting for the sky to fall

and we're buying brand new toys

But before we circle round once more

Can we lay down

Just lay down this pride



Let it go, let it be

Don't waste all your emotion on this

tit-for-tat machine

Let it go, let it be

Let it go

Don't go wasting your emotions

No one wins if we keep score

Let it go, let it be

Let it go

DPRK- Pretty Traffic woman

there is no way I can get down the bus to take it, so I have to quickly take it while on the bus.... If I do find a better bigger photo I will upload it later. These pretty ladies will be standing in the middle of the road junctions to direct traffic and they have certain working hours. (I can't rememeber), they don't work all the time as certain hours will be too hot in the summer. I was just wondering since ther es traffic lights why not just use traffic lights instead of woman. hmmmm I got no clue why....

DPRK

just sharing some random photos...... I will probably load them somewhere in the web soon...  Looks wow right, the cuttery is made of bronze I think.

Dish is not too bad


I can't remember whose tomb is this. Anyway honestly all I can recall is I don't enjoy visiting tombs. My view has always been a dead person is dead and if this person is a great man, yes its a history and the descendents and generation behind should learn from this person. There are lessons to be remember. But as for buidling a manifiant tomb, over glorifying it.. nah etc.. nah... We visted two of such tomb, i honestly can't be bothered with it.
