Brand new heavy

Hi friends and family. Just to inform that I am now officially a partner of Dior & Co. Many of you always assume that I am already a partner. Well, I have to follow the standard requirement. I can't just be a partner by virtue of my dad being the boss. Most of my colleagues obtained their partnership after 3-4 years of practice. I believe that experience matters. Hence, me complying to the 4 years of practise as well. As for consideration, yes, I provided consideration for my partnership. No, I don't see that I have automatic right to this partnership and hence the shares should be FOC. I am a believer of paying the cost in order to gain. Now that I'm a partner, the responsibility is of course greater. Am I thrilled? You bet I am. Am I going to be 'higher' in terms of ranks compared to my other peers. By all means, no. & people, don't make a big deal of this either. Because already some of them see me as having 'made it' in life...whatever that

In memoriam...

I'm writing this blog today, in memory of my......Esprit specs. I lost it last Thursday night. I suspect that it may have fallen off my shirt. The last place where I remembered my glass was in tact was at Hijau BDC. I only confirmed its lost the next morning. Why so sentimental you may ask. Well, I used my first pay to purchase it...4-5 years ago. I've never changed it before although for many times I was tempted to. I see no reason to change despite some of the frame being rusty..Rustic look mah. I mean, I paid close to RM500 for it. Don't play-play OK. Maybe this is God's way of telling me to change my glasses. I see...Like it or not, I have to buy me a new pair. So I got one last night. It was really different in terms of style. More colourful and trendy, I shall say. I bought a cheap one ...just in case I get bored with this one. Sigh! I still wonder where did I loose the old pair. Kesiannya...

Now that's dedication!!

Just got back from the youth cell group. This is the longest cell I've ever attended. Starts at 5p.m. But before that, accompanied Eddy to pick up his friend, Diana, all the way from 17th Mile. Come 5p.m, we started...officially. Finished at 6:45p.m. & after that went for dinner. We went to Gado for dinner. Quite a nice and cosy hang out place. Had a big lamb burger which cost about RM5. Not bad I say...After finishing dinner, off we go to send Diana home. By the time we reach Siburan, it was about 9p.m. I'm so amazed at Eddy's dedication to drive Diana, who is a new believer, all the way from 17th Mile for cell group. He's been telling me 'What have I gotten myself into?' Well, at the end of the day, its an investment in the enlargement of God's Kingdom. Great shall be his reward in heaven. Seeing Eddy's commitment, it somehow remind me about my service unto God. Am I serving Him in my convenience? If it is so, then where is the sacrifice? Oh ya..He

Give grace to Elizabeth Wong

Elizabeth Wong's nude pictures scandal has been a big hit recently. Some groups were sympathetic towards her, seeing it as a grievous unfortunate event. But some looked at her with scorn and demands her resignation...they remind me of the Pharisees in the Bible. Why should Elizabeth resign because of something which is not wrong legally? Her privacy was invaded. She is a victim of one sicko out there..whoever he is, I hope the authority would get him and bring him to justice! As for her morality, that is between her and God. For Christians, telling a white lie is equal to the sin of killing. Lusting for someone in the mind is equivalent to committing adultery. Sin is sin. So whoever has no sin whatsoever, let them be the 1st one to cast the stone at her. God in His infinite mercy, has poured out His abundant grace upon us. Likewise, lets be gracious towards Elizabeth. Malaysian Christians, let us pray for Elizabeth Wong. That God would redeem and restore her. God is able to use our

Miley Cirus 'racist'?

Margaret Cho, a comedian, called Miley Cyrus a disgrace in Foxnews.com. just because she posed in a stereotypical gesture. With due respect, I am a Malaysian living in the midst of people of many races, religion and culture. I have watched a school drama whereby a Chinese girl acted as an Indian and the Indian acted as a Chinese. Needless to say, it was hilarious. In order for the Indian to succesfully play her role as a Chinese, she squinted her eyes (Indians are blessed with big round eyes!) All this was done in good fun. No one in the hall was offended while watching. Do I find Miley Cyrus racist by virtue of the gesture? Not at all. I noticed that there was an Asian in her midst when the picture was taken. And he did the same gesture as well. If she's a racist, she won't be friends with an Asian. Think about it. In fact, I respect her for accepting that Asian dude within her close circle of friends. A racist won't do that. Oh ya...I heard that the persons who find her

Who would have thought?

While writing this, I'm in an internet cafe in Sibu. Don't ask me which part of Sibu I am in right now. Cause I am clueless!! So, why am I blogging at this point of time, you might think? I'm bored. I want to pass time...cause Angeli's only goin' to pick me up at 2:45p.m. from work. And most of all to complaint. I am not one who likes to complain to the public at large. But today, I just had to. I flew all the way to Sibu & made it a point to stay over night cause I thought I was going to take half a day at least for my case. Turned out that my expectation was wrong..if I only knew!! I was duped, tricked by 'someone' . Sorry sir. You might be a 'big shot' but you don't get my respect. I am really concern with your character and integrity. I question your capability of being the peoples' rep. God will repay!! Oh well. That's alright. At least I can spend time with my friend, Angeli. Its a good time to minister... as the Lord leads of c

Friday the 13th rocks!

Last Friday the 13th, I went for the Planetshakers concert held at E-Centre. I remembered asking a peer of mine about a few years ago, why he didn't he go for the concert. His reply..too old la. I will feel left out, etc. Ya rite. Blame it on age. As for me, I'll continue to rock on till I am physically and mentally able to. Yeah...rocking on for the Rock of Ages!! OK, ok. About the concert. The hall was packed. Youths from all denominations come. Some knew what the concert is all about but some sees it as a partying concert. I mean it is a partying concert but we're celebrating Jesus. About the Planetshakers, they're awesome as usual. For P. Henry Seeley to be there, it was just an honour! It was his first time in Kuching & by the looks of it, he likes the place and the people. They sang their new song, 'All For Love' and another new one that touches on taking us deeper into God's Presence. I love the latter. It has a nice tune to it. I admit that ag

He's 90+, but he thinks he's in his 30s...

My Akong is 92, or maybe 93 this year. Whatever it is, he's 90+. I grew up seeing him as fit and healthy man. He was in his 70s when we first went to the Bakun dam for a boatride. I remembered Akong with his hands folded to his chest, sitting firm like a rock in the boat, despite the choppy waves hitting against the boat. I always pictured this in my mind. That should he pass on, it would be a quick & painless one. Nope..don't get me wrong. My Akong is still alive. He's not too fit as before, but he's not in any excruciating pain or anything. Its just that the doctor discovered that he has Alzheimer like towards the end of 2008. It was really a shocker for us. No wonder at times he tends to loose his way...or forget what he was doing. There was once, when he thought he was in his 30s, working as a foremen. Unfortunately, his condition worsened 2 weeks ago due to a fall. He started seeing things, delusional. Then he thought my Ama died..obviously she's not, &

The plight of 'babo'ness

Today has been a busy day for me. If that's not enough, mum had to 'balik kampung' as there was some emergency matters which she had to attend too. As she has to answer the call of duty, I had to juggle mum's job & work. In addition to that, my li' bro Calvin is busy with his band competition. His forgetfullness wasn't a help either..he forgot his uniform...then his belt....then his band ticket. Haiya.. I was rushing from morn till evening. When I finished work, I headed towards my car. As I reached the parking lots, I saw a car which was similar to my car. So I pressed my car remote, but there was no response whatsoever coming from my car. Eh...my battery is weak, is it? But cannot be cause I just changed the remote a few days ago. Then I suddenly wondered...why isn't there any blue light coming out from the dashboard..where my sensors are. Hmm....another weird thing (reality hasn't sinked in yet.) I know....you might think that by those 2 signs, I
