The Mighty One, God the LORD,
speaks and summons the earth
from the rising of the sun to its setting.
Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God shines forth.

I think the dessert in the front is supposed to be his sweet, sweet heart which was soooo lip-smackingly crumbly and tangy and honeyfiedly delicious, I had to groan and chew and groan at the same time. Very difficult!
Now let me put on a red dress to wish you a Happy Lunar New Year!

Boy Chained to Lamp Post (2)

2/06/10 •

I’ve been wondering what to blog about for days when this story came in the news.

Every day, in China, this little boy is chained to a lamppost by his Dad. Remember how upset I was when my neighbour chained his dog to a lamppost to train him to poop there? Well, this is worse because [...]

Think of the poorest country in the world.
Which did you think of? Indonesia? Philippines? Myanmar? North Korea?
Unless you thought of Uganda, Burkina Faso, Burma, Mali, Guinea, Nepal, Comoros, Madagascar, Tokelau, Mozambique, Rwanda, Togo, Ethiopia, Sierra Leone, Malawi, Afghanistan, Central African Republic, Eritrea, Niger, Guinea-Bissau, Somalia, Liberia or Burundi, the country that you thought of is [...]

A few weeks ago, I celebrated the Asian Children’s Festival at Singapore’s National Library. It was two days of tiring fun. There was one particular boy there who caught my eye. The 5-year-old boy experienced every booth and once he found the activity he liked best, he queued and played at the same booth over [...]

You may be wondering why I haven’t blogged about the churches in Malaysia being attacked, seeing that I am a Christian Malaysian who goes to church.
There isn’t any particular viewpoint that I feel a need to air because what needs to be said have been clearly iterated by my leaders whom I trust. I can [...]

Alvin & The Chipmunks 2 – The Squeakquel (2)

Alvin is the sort of chipmunk who lives in his own world. He’s constantly thinking of his success, his fame, his likes/dislikes, and his talents and gifts. He doesn’t travel deep enough into other people’s shoes to learn their plans, likes, dislikes, talents and gifts. So, he lives pretty much for [...]

A friend told me that the season when you are about to get married is also the season when you have the highest negotiating power with your future hubby.
Whoah, that is very interesting. I haven’t thought of that before! But come to think of it, my former colleague did draw [...]

The Unnatural Beauty of Wildflowers (Comments Off)

1/03/10 •

A few days ago, I had a dream. I dreamt that I was in the middle of a green, green field. I walked on the grass and as I walked, all of a sudden, I came upon a small patch of wildflowers.

I cried out, “Oww…” as though these flowers are so pretty, it pierced my [...]

Hello reader! How has 2010 been for you so far? Any fun weddings you’ve attended already?
I was thinking that may be, just may be, I should come up with a new year resolution and for a brief moment, I considered committing to blogging more regularly.
But you know what? I don’t like committing to doing things! [...]
