This song is so beautiful. : Jesus, Beautiful Saviour

Reminds me who Jesus is and the great thing He came to do to undeserved sinners like me.

My really good friend, Kai Ling shared it with me....sigh.., it seems like another life ago that she was here in Sydney.

Going home

Ok I've just booked and paid for my flights - leaving Dec 9th ...and I think I'll come back in a month. (yet to book flights back)

Anyway think it'll be a good time to go as not only will church be a desert place...even work will not be too busy I think with 2 out of 3 of our account managers away. Last year, Dec had hardly any activity and when I came back in January - it was full-on. So I think it's better I take Dec off this time....I'll miss out our daytime Christmas event but it doesn't really matter to me.

A bit excited to go home for a month - much better than just 2 weeks!! I have enough leave and my boss said it was okay...so thank God for a very nice boss and just the company that I work in!

10-10

Our ever faithful new Collegian and friend, Guan faithfully reminds us:

On Fri 10 Oct, it is the birthdays of
(i) the leader of the HKies Jimmy Choi,
(ii) the leader of the Asians Jeremiah Lim, and
(iii) Taiwan! Salute a Taiwanese when u see one on Fri!!

Just had a thought...a funny reminder 6 years ago..while we were watching the FIFA world cup on tv at college. I remember the "cute" Korean player (whom others thought were cute...I'm like, really?..hahha...plus he's married for crying out loud) and then the time was 10:10 and then Jere tries to be lame and funny and sort of points to it like as if it's such a big deal. But I knew what he was hinting at...

I think he must be looking forward to 10.10.10!

ok i'm getting off this blog!!

Hello October

Bertrand Russell ~ "War does not determine who is right .....only who is left"

I can't believe I just spent about 5 1/2 hours sleeping. From about 6 pm, I got home, ate a piece of cake, turned on my laptop, called someone because I just remembered it was his graduation that day, checked the very few emails I had, mostly insignificant while lying in bed most of the time..and then I went to sleep.

So I've just had a shower and I don't think I'll be sleeping for another 3 hours as I have to do some things after wasting my whole evening sleeping. Anyway, think I really needed it today as I've been half asleep at work, even while driving home today. I thought I had to go buy some things before going home, so I parked my car and even had a nap. Work hasn't been tiring at all...it's just my own time and energy management.

Anyway, I just thought of it while I was in the shower. I think I'm facing a quarter-life crisis right now. Seriously..no joke. And quite timely.. say if I was till live till a 100! I'm even googling about it right now.

One website ends with this "What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out. "
