Man In The Mirror

I suddenly went back to the Michael Jackson phase. Lol, I think Aster can testify to this.
.
.
You know the saying that you only appreciate something when u lose it. Well, I think a lot of people failed to appreciate Michael Jackson's music. Now that he has left this world, the sudden playback of his songs has caught my attention.
.
.
Firstly, I think its quite rude for all the entertainment industries to take advantage of his shocking news to make money. Its been few months now and there are still new reports on his death and other scandals.
2nd, I think they should just leave him in peace la. After all, he was the King Of Pop. So what if now u tell me he was a drug user, or even come up with evidence he was/wasn't a child molester. Just put him to rest and embed the memories that he has brought us while growing up.
.
.
Lol, despite Aster's constant comments that 'why suddenly Michael Jackson again wan?' or 'not again!!' I dunno why I suddenly like his songs again.
.
.
But what's important is that its only after he's gone that I realise his music was really reaching out to people. You can condemn him all you want, but the lyrics in his music is what I respect him for.
.
.
Man in the mirror:
I'm Gonna Make A Change,
For Once In My Life
It's Gonna Feel Real Good,
Gonna Make A Difference
Gonna Make It Right . . .
I See The Kids In The Street,
With Not Enough To Eat
Who Am I, To Be Blind?
Pretending Not To See
Their Needs....
If You Wanna Make The World
A Better Place...
Take A Look At Yourself, And
Then Make A Change
.
.
Heal the world:
There Are Ways
To Get There
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Little Space
Make A Better Place...
Heal The World
Make It A Better Place
For You And For Me
And The Entire Human Race
There Are People Dying
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Better Place
For You And For Me....
.
.
We are the World:
There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all

We can't go on
Pretneding day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need

[Chorus]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me....
.
.
Black or White (rap section):
Protection
For gangs, clubs
And nations
Causing grief in
Human relations
Its a turf war
On a global scale
Id rather hear both sides
Of the tale
See, its not about races
Just places
Faces
Where your blood
Comes from
Is where your space is
Ive seen the bright
Get duller
Im not going to spend
My life being a color...
.
.
Earth Song:
What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain.. .
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores?

Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah

What have we done to the world
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores.
.
.
.
If we ever stop just to listen to some of the songs he sang, take note of the beautiful lyrics :)

25 August!!!

Today is my special someone's birthday...hehe, although most of you know I hardly post much about Aster, on her birthday it still calls for a special occassion. I guess time really flies. It feels like only yesterday when we got together, but then the reality is that its close to 5 months. I'm getting old...
Anyway, I guess I ought to cherish her more and learn how to show affection by actions instead of just talk, and the journey so far has been rather interesting. Of course I'm not gonna say that we both are super perfect. There has been its ups and downs, arguments, apologies and compromise. But hey, I don't think there is a couple in this world whom have never argued at all lo..
.
.
Aster, being my first gf is a small kid :P As of today she is 19! And I'm about to reach 22. Didn't I say I am old adi? However, to me she lives in a fantasy world where she is a princess and is pampered by her parents, frens and the people around her that love her. Then the pressure of the Science Law degree kicks in and thats where the rare few of u all encounter the 'stressed-look' Aster. Plus there is something intriguing about her mood swings... =p
.
.
Our journey so far.....When I first met her...

After our many outings(not dates), I got her to send me this which I kept as my wallpaper secretly....hehe....muahahaha...

1 week old, we were studying at the library already...one of our 1st few pics...

Asean Ball....

She joins my 'gang' too...

Our recent holiday in Sydney...
.
.
(warning, mushi alert!!!)
Dear, thx for being there for me and also bringing extra joy into my life. As you grow older, may you always stay the same (mature abit oso can :P) and not forget the things that make you, YOU. May God continue to bless you abundantly and guide you through ur everyday life. <3 u always.... :)
.
.
love u..... :P

interesting...

Hmmm..I seem to notice that my last post has sparked some 'interesting' comments.
.
.
Well, usually I do not respond to flamers or people who try to attack me despite not even knowing me but then this time, not for the sake or arguing, I'm here to justify myself.
.
.
A blog is personal. It is meant for the author to just express him/herself whenever he/she wants to pen down their thoughts. For most people, they like their blogs to be beautiful with all the nice background and decorations. Some people use it to update their friends and hence the links to all their friends blog. I do not view my blog to serve this type of purpose. To me, the most essential element to blogging is sincerity. Be it right or wrong, good or bad, I write what I want to write because at that very moment I find that special necessity to say something. All my birthday dedications are done with sincere wishes, all the posts on my life are sincere posting. I never and I repeat never delete any of my posts. Look at my first post and it will tell u that I started a blog to keep a record of how my life will be as a student in Australia. No doubt this will continue long after I have finish my studies. What does this blog function if all my posts are just about the good things that happen? Is it really true that only good things happen to me in my everyday life? Of course not. My rants and complains are not an attack, but rather a reminder of what I went through at this stage in my life. Heck, look at XiaXue. She uses profanity left right and centre but the one thing about her typings are that she is being honest.
.
.
And to my repeat flamer, this will be the one and only time I will fully respond to your comments.
1. I did not throw my temper. Read again, I said I'm not angry, just irritated. Please put on your spectacles
2. Why are u asking me whether I'm better than a girl? I believe in equal rights. Men and women are the same. I didn't say I was attacking a girl but you assumed I was. And I did not mention anything about gender dominance, u assumed I did. Why would u talk about difference in gender? Do u feel that ur gender is inferior thus causing u to blast this part out? If u do, then I'm trully sorry for u(real sincerity here)
3. You attacked my gf! You said my gf must be ****ty blind. For that, I would say you are in the wrong. What has she ever done to u?
4. I'm super not gentlemen. Hello? do u know me? Am I not a gentlemen or by the way I sound you assume me not to be one? Matthew 7:3 says: Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in you own eye? If you dont understand this let me intepret in simple terms - Who are you to judge me? Who are you to conclude about me?
5. Typical petty Asian men. This is downright ridiculous. Its a blatant racist comment which anybody can testify you being in the wrong. Saying this only makes me conclude that you are not Asian. But whatever race you are, I respect it and I advice you to better start respecting other races.
6. My gf should dump me? Thats for her to decide, not for u to comment :)
7. Hell lots to learn. Yea, I know about hell, but I don't wanna learn about it. I'm not going there. And yes I admit I have lots to learn. I'm not omnicient. But question is, do you think you yourself have lots to learn? If u think yes, why pointing out the obvious to me? You urself know you've got lots to learn. If u think no, either you are God or downright arrogant for thinking you are that smart. Since the possibility of the former is 0% and the latter 100%, perhaps you should think again before commenting.
.
.
I can go on, but then I'm lazy. Have a great day flamer. Oh btw, I'm not doing law if by that points pointed out you ASSUME me to be.

17 June....major delayed..and something extra..

Ok, exams are over...nice!!!
.
.
Haih, I know that I usually post up a dedication post to people's birthdays...at least those who are close to me. But sometimes I wonder, does anybody read it? Or has it become such a routine of mine that whenever I fail to put up anything, that somebody gets disappointed??
.
.
Anyway, putting that aside..17 June which I shall call brain day, because all the major smart people are born on this day...(damn, why not 2nd october -___-"). On 1987, 2 people by the name of Arun and Ashok were brought into this world. And I think they have so much to offer back to the world, in terms of research or discovery (not yet la...lol) Well having finished their basic course at Cambridge university on Maths and Physics, graduating with first class honours, and now heading on to do masters....soon they'll be doctors..no doubt about it..So, as I haven't been keeping in much contact with them over the pass year, I don't really know much updates about them, just that they are doing fine :)
.
.
Happy birthday to the both of them!.
.
Then comes the girl with both brains and talent (wah...puji much again). Yes, the person whose videos are mostly on my blog and cant be found anywhere else, plus the ever-growing family of hers visiting my blog (due to her videos) was also born on this day. Having made the deans list again, and scoring highest for 2 subjects IFA and CM (if u dunno dun bother to find out..lol). Not to mention the countless singing competitions she's won including the prestigious Xin Xiu yada yada yada....Oh wait, I remember, she's gonna be famous, and I know her! So I might as well prove it online, that I KNOW MELISSA SEOW...ha? see when ur, famous u wont be able to deny not knowing me :P
.Happy Birthday Mel (I'm telling u, this pic can sell wan in the future :P)
.
.
On to the something extra. I think its been a happening week, some happy and some sad occasions..examples..
Had exam-sad
Exam over-happy
Watched transformers-happy
MJ died-sad
Sim came-happy
But the fact he's only here for a month-sad
Aster's dad here-errr......(impartial???)(dear, dun kill me ar... :P)
Just found out some really good news from someone back in Sg(like literarilly JUST)-happy
JOEL SEE LEFT MELBOURNE-:( :( :( :(
.
.
Actually I shouldn't let this extra something overshadow the birthday dedications, but aiya, I guess when you a close fren leaves u really want to give him some acknowledgement la..
For most of u who actually follows this (head count probably zero), I hardly write about Joel, but then he doesn't read my blog so haha...no point writing anything about him. He's the first person who brought me clubbing...lol, and he played a lot of DotA with me...like really alot. I've watched more movies with him than any other person in my life despite him only coming to Melbourne like less than a year ago and gone with me to crown the most. Our regular eating places were Dessert house, A1, Chinatown, more dessert house and more A1. Then the umpteen times we visited maccas and KFC lol....I'm happy for him going back because its what he wanted, but I'm also sad I lost a close companion here in Melb. Thank you Joel, for being my best fren in Melb (so far)(and only in the guys category la :P) and for all the snoring nights I had staying over at your place because I had early morning class the following day.
.
.
Bah, not like I'm not going to see him anymore..but here's some pics of the good times...

Pei Xian bday last yr...when he first got to know the gang...

My failed korean bbq outing..

Post clubbing deadness faces...the a****n face...wakakaka...(inside joke)

Bye, my good fren...
.
.
I'm glad we watched transformers as our last movie, and I'm glad we won our last DotA game, and had Mcd's as our last meal before u left :D
.
.ok, this post is SO GAY...

Xin Xiu Singing Competition..

Ok, the sudden lack of posts is due to the sudden lack of inspiration to blog. However, there is great news, and great videos to watch, as Melissa has done it again, winning yet another singing competition. This time, I can say its the biggest she has ever won as it is a very competitive and difficult competition to win, as there are so so so so many contestants that so many knockout stages had to be held.
.
.
Anyway, just a short background on the competition, from semi-finals, there will be 20 decided to go into the finals. In the final itself, you are required to sing half a song and if u manage to enter the top 5 with that performance then u will automatically go into singing another full song. If u fail to enter the top 5, another 5 out of the remaining 15 will have to sing another half-song(that previously have been sung by other contestants) to prove that you are worthy enough to enter the full-song level. Out of this 5, 2 will be chosen to enter the full-song stage. Once the full-song stage is over, the top 3 will be selected to sing ONE cantonese song completely accapella with no music accompaniment. The winner would represent Melbourne to take part in some competition in Hong Kong which gathers the winners from all over the world(dunno wat extent is this 'world' though) hosted by China's own TVB8.
.
.
Mel sang 'Zhen Shi' by Ah Mei as her half-song, followed by 'Zhi Ji' (chinese version of Christina Aguillera's 'Reflection") as her full song. In entering the top 3 both rounds, she completed the final cantonese song with flawless vocals (fuuh..praise much eh...) to win it all....
.
.
Congrats Mel..hehe...famous adi dun 4get me ar...and I still want those autographs..In the future I can sell when you are rich and famous... :P

*************************************************************************************

Mel's half-song 'Zhen Shi' by Zhang Hui Mei, despite hearing so many times...its still good..hehe..



Her full song 'Zhi Ji'



Her cantonese accapella
.
.
Not to say there was no competition though..check out this dude singing Bei Pan

.
.
And this girl singing some other cantonese song which I've heard so often...

.
.
.

This girl tried another difficult song. Ah Mei's Yong Gan. I thought she was quite ok, just that the song was a little out of her range. She struggled to reach the extremely high notes and it showed a slight weakness in her vocals...But if I could sing like this, I'm perfectly satisified...lol..
.
.
and finally the results..
.
.
hear the votes and cheers for Mel..

.
.
so many videos...lol...congrats again Mel...u owe me bubble for this long post....zzz :P

First Love..

Haha...before u jump into any conclusions about the title, no, it doesnt only revolve around one love
.
.
I just felt like expressing something that I've been quite happy about..two things actually..
.
.
First thing, I have found it again, the same feeling I first had when I first encountered Jesus. And I owe it all to OC09. Overall, of all oceania conventions, the one I just came back from have trully been the best. I guess it was true that if I seek and expect something from God, He will really point me to the direction He wants me to be in. Can u remember how it felt when you first fell in love with Jesus? Has it changed over the years? Do u still feel like worshipping everywhere u go? I guess that over the past 2 years like any child begin to lose sight of wat he aims to be. OC 09 was really great, with all the convictions and revelations, plus not to mention the number of times I cried in desperate need for God. Now that I am in His presence again, prayerfully I would not slide away as He moves forward again. Its just a happiness that cant be explained with words. And this leads me to question, how did I lose something which gave me so much joy in the first place? I shall not ponder about the past, but focus on the future...
.
.
There's a new type of love for me now, a love for a woman(girl/lady whichever sounds right to u). It is quite new for me, as all my life, I've only learnt to love God. But when the right person comes along, I guess it just happens. I always imagined myself taking a very long time to seek out who suits me. Although fast, it feels right :)
I have no idea wat she sees in me, but I'm am thankful that she does cherish me alot. I know that many ppl say its the honeymoon period where everything seems to be going perfect and eventually it will subside. I don't want it to change. I don't want 'us' to change. Your characteristics defines you, and that makes me like you, don't take it away!! I know I cant offer u much other than my care and support but I hope it is enough for u :) (i dunno how to be mushi..lol)
.
Thank you dear for giving me a chance, I will commit as much as I can into this relationship :)
.
.
Other than the upcoming mid-sem tests, everything has been going on better than fine in my life right now. God and people are the ones that push me thru...

Memories that will drift away....

For a dunno wat reason, I call my grandmother ma ma...
.
.
Ma ma: *speaks in a hainanese dialect*
Me: Ma ma, wo bu hui jiang hai nan hua
Ma ma: bu hui jiang hai nan hua? ni shi se mo ren? ni jiang, ni shi se mo ren
Me: wo se hai nan ren...-____-"
Ma ma: Hai nan ren bu hui jiang hai nan hua, ni de peng you zhi dao, xiao se ni lo
Me: aw.....*at this point I will usually have some excuse to leave the table or my dad will interupt and start talking to her*
.
.
My grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's disease for a while now. While it was evident that this day would come, everybody is still caught by surprise when it actually does happen! Among my whole immediate family she is the most distant to me. And during the last few years the disease has reached its higher stages causing her to forget more and more and thus making this conversation as written above very frequent. Hmm...somehow, I wanna hear her say those words "Ni shi se mo ren" one more time...
.
.
Death is imminent, it is part of life and it is part of God's plan. There is a higher purpose for it to happen. We mourn the loss but we rejoice this passing on. Bye bye Ma ma....

Bradley Brown just got engaged....Well congrats Brad, I'm really happy that u have found your soulmate..
.

Brad is 22!!! He just went totally opposite towards the survey I made in the last post....His relationship with his fiancee started about a yr ago I think...Guys who said 28 years is ideal and date for at least 2 years, we have an outstanding one. Perhaps this changes the statistics completely..

Wait a minute, Brad is an outlier, I don't care, the stats stay the same >.<"

Mike Guglielmucci

*Update - I found out today that the whole story of Mike was a hoax...Its sad really because the song was such an inspiration to others...I feel sad for the people who gained such hope just by watching Mike. However, I still like to say that I still believe that God is our healer and despite circumstances on how this song was made, the lyrics to it are still true..


Ok, so I copied and pasted his name cos I juz couldn't spell it..lol
Who is Mike Guglielmucci? Whats his story? What so great? Well, I cant say I've got my facts right but it took me a while and reading various blogs as well as heard from people.
Mike is a youth pastor at Planetshakers Church in Melbourne City. He is also the bass guitar player of the team. In his mid 20's Mike was diagnosed with a blood disease around mid year 2006. It was a stage 3 terminal cancer disease. It struck him pretty bad, as at one point there was about 30 bones broken and fractured in his body due to the disease. Back pain, joint pains, wat pain oso got la. At that time based on statistics, the doctor told him he could live another 3.5 weeks.
.
.
What would u do? Lets say now I tell u, u had only 3.5 weeks to live. What would u do? Sulk at home? Go out and enjoy it all despite the inconvenience of moving around? Spend it all on frens, family, loved ones?
.
.

Well, here's what Mike did. He praised, praised and continue to praise God. He prayed, he worshipped, he continue to work for God. And he prayed for healing, kept going, got people to pray for him. He believed God put him in the world to lead a generation towards Christ and if it was God's will to take him away at such a young age, he let it be, and not let it deter him from continuing his work. At that moment he wrote 2 songs, Oh Praise Him and Healer. The latter song is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. Complete with the tune, lyrics and inspiration behind the song, it can really touch someone. Just hearing it will sooth yourself but listening and meaning what u sing in the lyrics, it makes me tear everytime. A brilliant song which is God inspired!

Healer - Planetshakers, written by Mike Guglielmucci

You hold my every moment
You calm my raging seas
You walk with me through fire
And heal all my disease

I trust in You
I trust in You

I believe You’re my Healer
I believe You are all I need
I believe You’re my Portion
I believe You’re more than enough for me
Jesus You’re all I need

My Healer, You’re my Healer

Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
Nothing is impossible for You
You hold my world in Your hands

Dont just look at the lyrics, listen to the song!!!
.
.
As of today nearly 2 years later, Mike is still alive. Defying logic, science, nature, thats what God's power can do, from 3.5 weeks, nearly 2 years and he still is alive and will continue to be because many believe his time isn't up yet. Able to testify and share his experience over these 2 years, it trully is a miracle. Taken from his My space page,

“HEY GUYS!!!! INCREDIBLE NEWS!!!! THE HEALING PROCESS HAS BEGUN!!!! TODAY I WENT TO JOHN WESLEYS CHAPEL IN BRISTOL. AS I STOOD IN WESLEYS PULPIT GODS POWER TOUCHED MY BODY!!!! TO CUT A LONG STORY SHORT. I LEFT MY WHEELCHAIR THERE!!!! MY BACK IS HEALED, MY HIPS ARE HEALED, MY LEGS ARE HEALED!!!! I STILL HAVE PAIN IN MY UPPER BODY BUT IT HAS STARTED!!!! PRAISE AND GLORY TO THE KING OF ALL KINGS!!!! MY SAVIOUR, MY PORTION, MY FREEDOM, MY HEALER!!!!!”

Amazing isn't it? Glory to God...

Life is short....

Have u ever wondered that when u are experiencing shit, it seems to take forever yet when u are having fun time seem to fly by in a blink of an eye(hey that rhymed!).
.
.
We never know when we will be called home to the Lord. It can strike anytime anywhere anyhow. A lot of us want to know how long we will live up to. If given the chance, would u ask God "When will I die?" or "How long will I live up to?" Do I live long enough to see the nxt Haley's comet or will I ever get to see how my great grandchildren will look like? I dunno man, but if I was given the chance to ask God when I will live up to, I wouldn't ask that question. I mean, what happen when u noe the day u will decease. Like if its tmr, u'll probably screw the homework and enjoy life as much as u can, if its in 10 yrs, u still would make full use of this 10 yrs. If its in 60 yrs, will u put a lifetime countdown on ur wall and cross out every yr that signifies 1 yr closer to the day I die. Knowing when u will die can really be scary. Imagine u having the most fun in ur life, maybe being together with a loved one, or at a theme park. Its the best time u ever had and u really dont want it to end. Now I'm telling u, I'm gonna take it away in 5 minutes. What would u feel? Will u be able to enjoy the remaining 5 mins knowing its gonna end, will u shout out NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dont let it end? Thats the perception I get if I know when I'm gonna die.
.
But then again not knowing the fatal date is quite saddening. Other than asking when I will die, we all want to know when a friend, family, loved one, relatives will pass away. Cos when we dont know that significant date it can strike us so fast that we cant believe that someone has just died. Imagine having someone taken away from u out of a sudden. The pain and remorse we feel having losing a companion is unbearable. But whats even worst is if we know when they would die. If I was to tell u the date of death of ur best fren, how would u feel. Go enjoy it with him/her last few moments? Let him be with his/her family till the very end? Counting down to the day he/she leaves the world and expecting death around the corner, isit more painful then having that person taking away out of a sudden? Job had everything he could want, but Satan took everything including his 3 sons in a flash. Despite saying the Lord gives and the Lord takes, was he really sad and remorseful of losing his sons just like that. Compare that to when God commanded Abraham to sacrifice his only son Isaac. Although it didn't happen, how did Abraham feel just before the slaying? It was like knowing when your loved one is going to die. .
.

Adrian Hoh was Ferrier Hodgson's director. He had strong philosophies on his own.
1) They should allow accountants to get a receivers license without having that 3 yrs audit experience.
2) Never wants to get married despite having a girlfriend.
3) Buy health insurance and not life insurance.
I used to laugh at these funny opinions cos they were one of a kind and he is one of a kind. He send me home once after a meeting in is dark blue proton wira constantly talking throughout the trip home. His reluctance to go in audit fields had him working in insolvency for 10 years now. And proud to say him being a chinese but never good at speaking makes him a banana just like me. Despite only knowing him less than 2 months, he is rather funny and I can still recall the day I left the company with him wishing me well, shaking my hand, and asking me to return to the company to work there one day. I even remember the time he scolded the waiter and manager for our food being an hour late. He bombarded them continuously and he didn't even give them a chance to talk back! He said thats they way to fire a person, before they can answer, throw them the nxt insult! Lol...
Adrian wasnt feeling well the pass 2 weeks, or so I was told. This morning, he passed away, I believe its of heart failure, which my ex-colleagues told me was heart atk. Is there a difference heart failure or heart atk? Nevertheless someone I knew was taken away by the Lord. Considering I barely knew him long, I still felt depressed, I cant imagine if someone close is taken away. And then another question pops into my head. Was it another christian that passed or was it another non-christian?

I've open up a new label on my posts under 'dedication'. I felt it was appropriate to honour ppl who leave this world that have left a mark in me. Or at least significant enough for me to consider a friend. Rest in peace Adrian...*update - i forgot to mention he was only 38, so dont take young age for granted!
