Living out Faith

Was at Coldplay's concert on Wednesday night. Had so much fun. Was really impressed by Coldplay. Felt that they put in way more effort than Oasis. Saw Oasis about three years ago and wasn't that impressed with them. Felt that they couldn't careless to really entertain the audience. But with Coldplay, it was totally different. These are my Coldplay buddies. We were up singing, screaming, shouting and dancing throughout the concert! Even the old man near me was dancing and taping his feet away. One of my favourite Coldplay's songs, Yellow. Check out those huge yellow balloons! When the yellow balloons were burst, confetti fell out. It was just so fun! And here, the cutie.....playing Fix..... They actually walked right to the black of the stage, where the cheap ticket seats were, and they actually performed there. That really impressed me. They made the effort to really touch their audience. And yes, Viva Coldplay!!! Would watch them again any time! Had so so much fun!

I had an absolutely wonderful time over the weekend. My best friend, Stanley popped into HK with his wife Dorcas on Friday and guess they should be on their flight home now. Apart from being my best friend, he is also probably one of my oldest friend too. So so happy to be able to hang out with him and his wife. And am thankful that I gotten to know Dorcas a little better too. Met them on Friday night, had dinner with them and then on Saturday, met them briefly and on Sunday, spent the whole day with them with the Tans. The Tans, sometimes, I tend to leave out the Tans. Adrian is a childhood friend of mine. A mutual friend of Stanley and me. Three of us met in Sunday School when we were probably 6 or 7 years old. Adrian used to live in the same estate. We used to play in the playground and had heaps of fun. I think Adrian met Cindy, his wife when he was in UK studying. I just got to know her a little better over time. Am very glad that they recently gotten married too. Was a little bum...

As The Deer Written by Martin Nystrom As the deer panteth for the water So my soul longeth after Thee You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee You alone are my strength my shield To You alone may my spirit yield You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee You're my friend And You are my brother Even though You are a King I love You more than any other So much more than anything You alone are my strength my shield To You alone may my spirit yield You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee I want You more than gold Or silver Only You can satisfy You alone are the real joy giver And the apple of my eye You alone are my strength my shield To You alone may my spirit yield You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship Thee I've been thinking about somethings as I was walking into the school this morning. This is one of those days that I wonder why God is not answering my prayer or why is He testin...

Woke up this morning and we decided to go to Cheung Chau. We've been wanting to go island hopping ever since we moved to Hong Kong and guess, we finally decided today is the day to go. And yes, must say Babe was very sporting about it. He was the one that suggested. Walking along the promenade. Lots of boats. Cheung Chau is basically a fishing village so it's no surprise to see heaps of little boats. Oh yes, a little shaggy dog on the boat. We suspect that this is a 'houseboat' and this is the pet of the owners. We saw the owners of this boat going on board and then taking off in their working boat to go fishing. The beach in Cheung Chau. This was a fine day but it's a still a little too cold to be out suntanning and swimming at the beach. Babe and me at the beach. Pardon Babe's hair. He's into his natural look today. Very natural and organic! On the upperdeck of the ferry. It was a nice afternoon. Rather well-spent. But the reality, don't think we'l...

Ha! It's a little late to make my new year's resolution isn't it. But well, it's better late than never. I went for a Christian Women's Conference on Saturday and came back feeling that I've learnt a lot. A lot about myself and God and also my relationship with Babe. The thing that really hit me at the conference was the issue of submission to my husband, Babe. The reality, I want things my way and bless Babe, the poor babe, he loves me heaps and lots of time, he gives way to me and when he puts his foot down, I get mad. I learnt that submission to my husband is submitting even though I do not agree, I will give in to him. That takes a lot from anyone, especially me. I've also realised that it's me that's always wanting to lead and wanting my ways and that's why we get into arguments. And biting my tongue and a change of my attitude will do a lot to the marriage. And it's not just submitting and having a bad attitude towards it. But rather su...

Babe and me hardly catch a movie in HK. The problem with catching a movie in HK, it can't be a spontaneous thing. It has to be planned or the tickets will be sold out. Or maybe I'm wrong, let me rephrase it. The cinema that we both love is always sold out with their tickets but not sure about the rest. So last weekend, we made plans and booked the tickets online to watch Slumdog Millionaire. Have to say that I loved, loved the show. I love shows that the underdogs triumph over life and that childhood sweethearts reunite with each other. And the movie had both of these elements. But as I watch the movie, my heart went out to the poor orphan kids living in slums, working under hateful monsterous gang leaders. And it pains me to know that the kids in slums are real, bloody real to the point that yes, real! No other way to put it. And yes, I want to help all of them. Wish I have the power to save every single one of these slum kids. But then again, here am I sitting on my comfy cou...
