  • Update 一吓先~

    用英文寫Xanga寫左咁耐,用中文寫吓都好。嚟咗美國咁耐,而家真正的覺得自己既中文已經退步,開始提筆忘字,有困難去用中文去表達自己既想法...原因可能係用英文用得太多喇。要惡補一下d中文先得,唔係我呢個曾被視為假ABC,遲d可能真係變成ABC。

    最近諗返起細個時曾經諗過大個之後想做既職業。記得人生中第一次搬屋,由荃灣搬去天水圍,有機會同老豆去買新傢俱,發覺行傢C舖好正,好好玩,有好多好搞笑既o野睇。希望將來自己可以幫自己或者幫其他人設計同佈置理想家居,咁樣我就可以經常去行傢C舖喇。就因為咁我曾諗過想做室內設計師。細個好愛睇Disney電影同有線兒童台入面播既卡通片(而家諗返,有線電視真係伴住我成長,陪伴我渡過o左童年同埋青少年時期),加上因為自己把聲夠騎呢,音調有d唔正常,仲有得到好多朋友既認同,所以都有諗過會做卡通片配音員。中學期間迷上了903,經常聽電台,我d口水都OK多,又頗鍾意同人傾計,討論交流意見。覺得自己可以擁有一段可以詳所欲言既時間同空間,咁都唔錯嫁喎...所以電台DJ都係我曾經諗過想做既。當人大o左,思想同行為相對地會比小學時成熟一d,睇既書同電影都會有改變。中學時,有次睇完一個電影製作特輯就開始對電影製作產生興趣,有d向往加入藝術創作既行業。仲有我好鍾意睇記錄片,好似鏗鏘集同星期X檔案。每次睇完都會覺得好充實,學到嘢。其實我好想可以親身去訪問故事中既主角,拍下佢o地既故事,然後透過電視媒體將佢o地真實既故事講出嚟。呢d片段我覺得係非常真,非常有意思。以前我對電影創作真係好有興趣(而家都仲有),知道成龍o係香港創辦o左間電影學校,我已經諗住中學畢業之後就去報讀。仲有o係中學期間寫記念册時,我的志願/夢想旁邊,我o係會寫"做導演"。不過嚟到美國之後,成為一個電影工作者已經真係淨係個夢想,一個比較難實現既夢想。

    哈! 原來我想做既職業都幾多嫁喎。不過我將來可以做到既職業而家都係未知數,我諗應該都唔會係以前諗過想做既工作。雖然我而家唔知道我將來的職業會係咩,或者未來既人生路向會係點,但係我知道一生倚靠著主耶穌,有神引導方向,我既人生一定會有出路,一定會好精彩。

  • Starting off the New Year in hospital

    I spent the first 3 hours of 2009 in hospital with my mom and dad. It was my dad who was sick. Just after my sister and I finished the New Year's countdown, my mom came into my room and asked me to get dressed and to help her take my dad to the ER. My dad told me that he felt very dizzy as if he was about to faint and it got worse as he lay down. Poor daddy .

    We drove to the closest hospital from home - Frankford Hospital. On the way to the hospital I was praying and praying to God for my dad. Really thanks God that my dad is feeling better now. We had a cool doctor. He is funny and extremely nice. I love him . Within the 3 hours, we spent most of the time sitting and waiting for the CT scan and the chest x-ray results to come out - 45 minutes for the CT scans and 10 minutes for the chest x-ray...but the most exciting moment was that I got to see the real ER moment. It's actually quite an experience.

  • 2009 is Getting Closer and Closer...

    Less than two hours, then I have to say goodbye to 2008 and welcome 2009. At this time of year, people usually would write down their new year resolutions and retrospect what they have done/learned last year. So, I guess, I'm just gonna follow the tradition.

    2008 has been a life-changing year for me. I'm really glad that I keep my journals here, even though I don't often come here and update it. Since I'm quite oblivious, xanga really helps me bring back my memories. Just reading some of the journals from one or two years ago that I posted here, the content I wrote has changed - not just about school stuff or friends or my uninteresting daily routine. Xanga has gradually become a place where I express my walk with God. It starts to become my spiritual journal. God has definitely revealed more and more to me and drawn me closer and closer to Him each year. God has touched my heart multiple times throughout this year, and even today, the last day of 2008. God has touched my heart once more time:

    I've been a fan of GodTube since it was launched in spring of 2007. I checked my emails today and found that GodTube has announced Top 8 GodTube video hits of 2008, so I watched the videos, and Man! This video completely blew me away. It helped strengthen my faith in God once again. Being a science major and listening to this...it brought tears to my eyes and made me...speechless. This video can also be found on YouTube.
    Check this out!!

    Louie Giglio - Laminin


    WOW!! What can I say: I LOVE LAMININ!!!
    The verse that Louie quotes is: Colossians 1:17
    "He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together."

    What a great day to end 2008  As for my new year resolutions, they would be: To remember what I've learned in 2008 and continue to have a heart to learn more; To completely give my heart and life and soul to God one more time; To be the salt and light for Him in wherever He puts me; To keep and treasure all the things that I have now and To know that whatever will happen to me in the future, He always holds me in His hands and carries me everyday of my life. Looking forward to what God has to teach me in 2009.

  • Didn't update my Xanga since summer..hehe . Lots of things happened within this couple of months. Thanksgiving just passed, and now I'm really stuffed because I have gone to three Thanksgiving dinner this year ::::Food was awesome:::: Yesterday was Black Friday - went to King of Prussia with my dad and my sister. I'm very happy that I got to spend some time with my dad because I feel like I didn't have much chances to talk to him. This semester I've been very busy on doing school work and helping in the ESL ministry in CCC&C. So most of the time I'm not home - every day I'm either at school or church. Sometimes I think I'm involved a bit too much in church events/ministries and forget about my school work, but volunteering at church is a "joyful service" and I've learned so much and have had so much fun. I really like helping out in ACE and practicing worship songs in the choir of CSM. I know that if I manage my study/work time well, I can get everything done. But to do so, I really need you, Lord, to strengthen me. 

    May God raise up more workers in CCC&C
    Sometimes we may think that "everything seems to be running smoothly without me, and I'm not really needed." However, there is much to be done, and much that is left undone. Try to find what you love to do and do it for the church and remember that every one of us is truly needed!

  • My Dad is HERE!!
    劉小姐同周老闆無見三年多, 佢哋終於可以相見!! 無見咁耐, 對一對夫婦嚟講, 可說是一個考驗。回顧呢四年喺美國既時間, 由踏足美國既第一日到零七年年尾,  周家真係經歷咗好多。 有喜亦有悲, 有好既又有唔好既事情發生。如果將周家過去三年所經歷既事, 用一個拆線圖去表示, 應該會係一條negative slope graph. 但如果plot 埋今年零八年, 個graph會變成一個U shape graph.  由negative slope 變成positive slope. 今年一月開始, 周家既開心指數漸漸上升。Once again God shows me that He listens to our prayers and He does answer. God not only just provide my family financially, and also spiritually. It's so great to see how God's grace touched my Aunt's heart. 願主繼續祝福我既父母同埋我姨姨一家。

  • Wearing masks
    Almost everyone feels the need to fit in with society. In order to do this, most of the people would choose to "wear" a mask and disguise all the things that the society might not accept about them. Sometime it can be a fearful task to let others know who we really are. However, wearing a mask is harmful to our self-image and lowers our self-esteem, and this may cause us to avoid close relationships with other people. It is no good to hide or disguise things about ourselves.

    Just remember, my lovely brothers and sisters in Christ, that God is always there to give you the strength you need, so that you can face any challenge that comes you way. Never be afraid to BE YOURSELF because God loves you just as you are and He accepts you as beautiful and perfect just as He made you.

  • I saw a video on Crosswalk.com.
    The title of the video is "I Wish".
    A lesson in contentment (滿足)!
    In the video, the reporter asks some random people on the street about the following questions:
    If you had one wish, what would it be? // One that you personally wish for?
    What do you wish for? // If you had three wishes, what would they be?

    Some of the responses are:
    *Rich and famous, substantial (大量的) amount of money.
       Because - it's a vehicle to do things that I want to do.
    *Just a million not a billion..that's too much hassle, set me off...get me started.
    *To be retired.
    *I think I would just wish for more time with my family - productive (富有成效的) time.
    *Happiness in everything I do, no matter what it is, I guess just always be happy and content with myself.
    *I wish a career that satisfy me as supposed to what I am doing right now.
    *I'm not too much a materialistic kinda guy. Probably just be - actually know what I want from life. That's one..new car!?
    *Vacation anywhere. Where anywhere? Hawaii.
    *I wish I would be sitting on top of the world, making millions of dollars, controlling the Earth, controlling every function.
    *I don't have to worry about anything if I was making money.

  • Mario Badescu's drying lotion has arrived in my mailbox! Can't wait to try it out. Hopefully it will work on my face. Recently I start listening to Podcasts again (I am a radio lover!!). I think that iTunes is a pretty good source of knowledge. It covers many different fields of knowledge - science, politics, music, religion...etc. you name it! There are some Christian related podcasts. I have learned so much from listening to them. Recent preference is The Passion Podcast.
