The day..

KL in 2 days..i guess i am pretty happy with the way "the thing" has turn out. Let's hope for the best.

SVU guys are really amazing!! i emailed them regarding the lousy Fluent program and they actually replied on sat and then on sun! But then i m having problem with the server again!! oh man!! The only good thing is that i am getting the hang of the program and i hope i can import asap so i can start analysis!!


Anyway the holidays are ending!! hiaz. Since i will be spending New year's eve in KL, i shall think about my 2009 resolutions!!

1) God

i guess we all can afford to be more spiritual and more on fire for God. I hope that 2009 will be a year of breakthrough in my walk with God. Let my eyes be more fixed on Him and focused on His plan for me!



2)Studies/Work

I really pray and hope for a smooth transition. Should i stay and do Masters and PHD? I heard it is hardcore stuff. That sounds pretty scary.HAHA. I jus watched 21!!! OH MY. I simply love that show! I mean I think i am a geeky. When it comes to all these formulae and intellectual stuff. It jus stirr up my interest. Kudos to JX for introducing the show!

3) Relationship

I hope i can find the partner for life before i start work. HAHA. I am not ashamed to say that. It is a natural phase and i seriously don feel anything wrong. We no longer are primary sch students who go around pointing fingers at each other and say "eeee u like that person!!" Clear target clear goal is the key to victory!


4) Character molding

I hope that 2009 i can be a better person. I want to have more patient, i want to flare up less. I want to love people more. I want to less logical-only but have more logically-emotion intelligent. IQ put what is right or wrong first, without regards to feelings. EQ put feelings first sometimes forgoing what is right and wrong. I hope i can be betetr in both area at the same time.

5) Money

I hope that by 2009 , i can clear all my debts. then 2010 i can plan to save for marriage! Not that i am crazy to get married. But i hope to settle down young. And mostly importantly, Man should make plans counting on God to direct. Planning set you ahead and make future path easier to trend on.




6) fitness

I want to be fitter, leaner , more muscular and look sharper. I don't want to develop any tummy anymore( as much as i can) or start to have high blood pressure, cholesterol etc. hopefully i have time to join a gym and keep fit.











I dream of the day i hold your hand walk down the beach..

I dream of the day we go up the Singapore flyer...

I dream of the day we drive up to Southern Ridges for a walk..

I dream of the day..

Of a bright future with you...

Inspiration

Having an indescribable feeling inside of me. Hiaz.


Today i felt very inspired by Sun's interview. Makes me realised that I can make use of my talents in the marketplace. I am still quite traditional in my thinking. I still think that if i am not in the 5 fold ministry, i am not serving God in a great way. I guess from her example, i no longer see it that way. i guess there is this unexplained passion in me to do the best i can, to excel beyond what i can do. I guess being in the house of God have already developed an inbuilt spirit to do the best i can and glorify His name. To be honest, i am not trying to brag, so what if i can into dean's list? So what if i can earn 10k or 20k a month? i realised what matters most is that people know Christ is the reason for all the achievements. People often ask me, what is the energy that keeps me going. To be perfectly honest again, i really don't know. It is just this inbuilt battery within me from God which keeps me on and on.


I must admit, sometimes i really don't understand certain things going on in church. But my historical faith kept me on. It is this faith that keeps me going on and on.I am far from perfect but i am trying. For what i lack, Christ makes it up.


God is the strength of my heart.

Cars

I got to admit. This lamborghini really tempts me

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20E5YkwTY54


Though i prefer a more practical and different from norm car

My Life, Your song

WHOSE HANDS ARE THESE
HOLDING MY TRAPEZE
WHEN I FLY
YOU CARRY ME
WHOSE EYES ARE THESE
WATCHING OVER ME
EYES OF LOVE
THAT SET ME FREE


UNAFRAID
WHAT'S AHEAD
YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE BEFORE
MY WHOLE WORLD
YOUR DESIGN
YOU ARE ALWAYS THERE
JUST RIGHT BEHIND


MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
TO YOU MY HEART BELONGS
LET ALL EARTHLY CROWNS
FADE IN THE SHADOW OF THE CROSS
MY LIFE IS YOUR SONG
I'LL SING FOR YOU ALONE
NOTHING IN THIS WORLD
CAN TAKE ME AWAY FROM YOU
OUR LOVE GOES ON AND ON


WHOSE ARMS ARE THESE
SHELTER ME FROM HARM
IN THE STORM
YOU ARE MY CALM
WHOSE VOICE I HEAR
WHISPER IN MY EAR
WHEN I'M LOST
YOU'RE ALWAYS NEAR


IN ALL MY LIFE
BE GLORIFIED
WITH CHRIST IN ME
NO LONGER I
SO TAKE MY ALL
CONSUMING FIRE
YOUR LIGHT IN ME
I'LL LET IT SHINE





Godly Desires, Faith and Courage.

Lonely Christmas

Jus got back after a run. I alway like to run to cool my head. Whenever i feel troubled, i like to be alone. To forget everything. Today run felt good, think i am slowly picking up the pace.

Went to school then sunflower ask me out to get some stuff. suppose to catch up with zoe but i guess she is busy as her sms din come. So i went with sunflower and got some stuff. Had a simple dinner and chit chat about the people around us. I guess that's what good friends are all about.


I love my Emporio Armani phone.I am not jus a geeky guy. I believe in features as well as fashion.


I can't help but feel

Outing with ME pals

Went to new york new york with my ME friends. Initally we started talking about results, then to PHD and Masters program. Then we go into IQ question P6 students are being asked in PSLE. Here are some...see if you can get the answer! Liptong and Minhui Pls DON"T answer because the qns originated from you two!!Fabian also cannot!

1) A student took a number of tests, for one particular test he got 68 marks.His average mark for all the tests he took was 91, on average. Then while calculating, he realised he scored 86 instead of 68, and because of this, his average goes up to 92. How many test he took in total? You don need paper and pen to do. You cannot use calculators.

2)what is the answer for

(a-x)(B-x)(c-x)......................(y-x)(z-x)=?



I managed to get the first one right but the second one is tricky. The answer shall be revealed in the next post.


Received something that really touched my heart








Can you see my name's spelling T I T U S on the cookies?!using M&Ms ??


Happy Boxing day!!

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!!

This is the season where the whole world will be celebrating. Without a single doubt, this is the most celebrated day of the whole year! Jesus is the reason for the season!I really feel blessed today cos the 2 little girls from my cg actually rem me and gave me presents!! hahaha..it sure feels good to be appreciated!



Time passes so quickly! The year is coming to an end! This year has been good! Studies wise, i got into dean's list for the first half of the year and it seems there is a high chance i get into dean's list again for last sem! Financially, things have been going quite smoothly. Friendship wise i am glad i made alot of friends in cg. Ministry wise i am glad i got to do and serve God in the cg in a greater way than before.



I guess some of the important goals for next year include a smooth transition into working life, hoping to find the partner for life and getting my family saved.
I wish i can be leaner and i wanna to do more things for God.

I really thank God for my family. My wonderful dad who work so hard, my beautiful mom so caring, and my two sis for the things they have done. My friends around me, especially those from my cg, my nus friends, u guys are really the biggest gift i gotten in life.



Once again,


MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

Attacked

Time check: 2.17pm

Having less than 45 mins before the official release of results, i decided to lie my bed. Before i know it i doze off into lalalala land.


Then "it" happened again.


In my dream, there are small girls telling about ghost stories. I can't really recall. It is pretty scary, like those thai show where there is whispering and murmuring.. All i could rem that the whole atmoshpere is pretty eerie.

Sensing something is wrong, i tried to break out of the "dream". I wanna wake up. Then there is this unknown force pressing on me. Like preventing me from getting up.

Then, even though i can't see. I can "feel" there is someone pressing on me. Like someone pressing his arm on my chest and pointing his finger at me while i am lying flat on my bed, scolding me.


In case u think i am exaggerating, this is exactly how i rem.


I immediately started praying in tongues. A struggle kinda of start. "It" seems to be threatening me and making me feel scared.


The last thing i recalled , i was shaking while lying flat on my bed then i jump up my feet. Seriously, like bruce lee.


I seriously don't know "it" is some sort of hallucination or something attacked me.


But thank God for the results! I got A of every sort. Hopefully can get into dean's list.

It is simply amazing! I was sick for the 3 whole weeks.So sick that i threw up before Geo paper. But still i did well.


Glory to God.

My fears

Everyone have fears. Everyone.

I too have my own fears. Fear of darkness when i am lying on my bed. Fear of forgetting to zip when i come out of the loo. Fear of the unknown.

But courage, like they always say, is moving ahead despite of the fear!

I have been thinking,

What is my greatest fear?


Why do i need to know? Know yourself and know your enemy and the battle is half won.

I realised my greatest fear is............


Expectation.

My greatest fear is that i cannot live up to ppl's expectation of me and i cannot live up to the expectation i set for myself. Therefore i tend to be more passive in taking up responsibility unless i know i can achieve it.


I must remind myself to be a MAN. Yes M A N, MAN and do what i need to do. What matter most is how hard u try, not what u get. I need to live life for myself and have more faith in God and myself.



I need to be able to take the expectation ppl set for me and the expectation i have for myself.



Expect chickens, and you get chickens.
Expect eagles, and you might get falcons.

Thanksgiving CG!

Sang this lovely song during thanksgving cg! we had such a good time. I hope Victoria and Sean are tearing now while watching the video!! haha...all the fun and joy , all the pain and tears we all went thru for the last one year!

It has been less than 1 year since i joined the cg. looking back, i must say it was a time of breakthru and fun! haha..breakthru in the things i do and the thinking i had. Fun in the friends i have around me and the fellowship i have.

Change is for the better. I don know how things are going to turn out but i guess there is a high chance i will not change. Then again 2009 will be the best year yet!

What is the definition of living?

Having much time to think about stuff for the last few weeks...i began to wonder what is the definition of living?

I mean take a min, pause and listen to what i have to say..


everyone live their lives the way they perceive themselves to should have live.

Everyone thinks that they are doing the right thing, living the life they best they can.


So what is the real definition of living?


Have you wonder, i mean seriously, that what is the main purpose of doing all you are doing, till the day you die?

If your answer is " so that i can do well, have a good life" , then what about that? after that?

Before you think that i am going preach about some life "greater" purpose, you are wrong!



Just take a min and ask yourself.


So what are you living for? what should you live for? what to do to find out what you live for?



Without a source , there is no power!
Without meanings and goals, life is just waiting to end.


Think of your purpose today!




Hoping to make them cry!

Think

Recently someone told me that i am think too much.

I guess this is true. I take a long time to consider before getting somethings. Like my laptop. I spend one to two hours reviewing all the different models everyday for 2 weeks, from user review to durability to budget to performance before i decide. I am glad i made the right choice.
Read this and this

But sometimes it is not good to think too much, it slows down ur decision making and sometimes can lead to opportunity being lost.


Anyway I hope my prof will reply me asap!I have thought of something and I can't wait to work on it!! Somewhat this FYP has become more like self-proposed ( If he agrees to use what i have emailed him). Hopefully i can come out with a better design.


The time has come and the year is ending. Time to look back at the goals i have set and things to give thanks for.I guess this year has been pretty good! Got into dean's list once, got my driving license, got my new laptop, new hp. Although i think i will not be able to fulfil 2 personal goals, i still feel this is a good year. 2009 will be a even better year!


With greater power comes greater responsibilities!

Of old age and failing bodies

Time is alway ticking and we are alway ageing. Whether you want it or not, you have already aged the moment you are conceived in your mom's womb!

Was reminded by a friend that parents are nagging, alway calling u, alway scolding u for every little thing, alway trying to come into ur room and disturb u. Yesh, my parents are sometime like that too. I began to realised that they are just trying to let u "know" and "realise" that they exist.

As we grow older, we began to divert our time into our own stuff like outings with friends, our hobbies and private time etc..The "baby/darling/boy boy/girl girl" has grown older and divert away. In order to make us realised that they care, they are "fighting" for a part of our lives that they are losing.

Rem the time when u were young and they were carrying u in their arms or when they held ur tiny hands when crossing the road. Rem the first time u went to kindegarden and u refused to let them go home. Rem the time when they are the world to u.


One day, i will be like them of old age and failing bodies. Now they have aged considerably and have failing bodies, i constantly need to remind myself the sacrifices they have put it for me. Nope , it is not something taken for granted. Alway rem that they might be no longer around when u realised how impt they are to u.


Treasure them like they have alway treasured you :>


Life on the moon

Here in this crowd I'm feeling all alone
Turn me around and point me back to home
I'm getting lost more everyday
and I can't tear myself away
from the stars in my eyes with no light

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
and I'll let you be who you need to be

[CHORUS:]
Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

Flown off the ground my head's up in the air
self conscious to a fault with other people everywhere
It's getting harder every night, to take the punches left and right
just to know that you are here by my side

Here are my terms, have some faith in me
and I'll let you be who you need to be

[CHORUS]
Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

Getting lost in my own atmosphere
stars in the sky all the stars in my eyes
is the cost of getting out of here alive

Life on the moon, could it be any stranger?
life on the moon, wouldn't feel as far away?
the life that I knew is through
and I'm gonna need you more than ever
I'm alone in this crowded room
life on the moon

HAHA..Believe it or not, this is the FIRST time i ever ate Haagen Dazs ice-creams at its outlet.Afer which Myrna and i went to this noodle place at Far east! been there once with the ex POS oldies. Serve nice food!


Ice-creams!!






Feels like biting into the scallop!!!

Rhino is so cute!!

Check this out

You won't regret it!

Anyway i went to watch Bolt today!!! oh my Rhino is soooooo darn cute!! I reckon he is one of the cutest character i have seen! Nice hamster!

Got my N85 today and i am quite happy with it. Was considering LG Renoir and Samsung Pixon but they seems to have alot of bug(for LG) or doesn't have essential functions i need like GPS and Wifi( Samsung). Like alway, Nokia never fails to surprise me. The 8G memory, the GPS, the Dual-sliding mechanism, the 6M colour OLED screen and the compact size simply blew me away!


I finally found my prof! met up with him and finally he told me some ideas where to head to. He confessed that he wasn't aware of the newly developed kites and kinda at a loss what is there for me to do too. Hiaz, but in the end we end up deciding that i should do one of the 3 topics we come out with.Seriously, all of them sound tough. Guess i got to start working on them!



i got so much food vouchers! i need to start spending them. From Haagen Dazs to Kenny Rogers to Capitaland to MS vouchers. Anyone wanna eat out?!

FYP = Find Your Prof

WHERE ARE YOU??!!


 

Here I'm standing outside your door, knocking and seeking, how come I can't find you?!

How about the emails I sent you last week?? Has your mail blown up? Have you gone overseas without informing your dear student?


 

Yes, it has been a long while since we met up, but that does not mean you don't reply the last 5 emails
I sent you!!


 

I am sooo going to wait for you. At least for the next 2 hours, in case you woke up late and be in school.


 

Hiaz , I wonder if sending a reply email can be sooo difficult meh? Just type ok and click send!


 

Saw 5 friends while on my way back to sch. They are here to do FYP. I can see their "Full of enthusiasm" and "Excited" face, with special mention to Small Shrimp. I almost thought it was me who spoilt the day.


 

Here I am sitting in the library, looking at all the muggers, mostly graduate students , doing their work.


 


 

Anyone wanna go out?????

Hello Kitty

Came back from sending my sis off for her trip when i walk past the voiddeck and there i saw it sitting at the usual spot, looking into the empty air. I lighten my footstep and walk past it qucikly. I held my breathe for a while and zoom past it, not wanting to disturb it.


Came afternoon, I went to pass my dad some stuff and there i saw it trying to do the usual "sneaky" stuff. I slow down my footstep and stand to observe, wanting to catch it in the act. Then just like those shows u see them in, it just freeze, with one foot in the air, even though i was behind it!


I went to sit down at one of the voiddeck chair and waited for it to resume "action"
Then like a recharged toy, it lowers his raised foot and started "prowling". Observing the target, it slowly and carefully trend towards the "targets".


I seldom said this...but



This is one cute cat( The one at my voiddeck looks just like this.)




"Prowling"

Personality test

Your view on yourself:

Other people find you very interesting, but you are really hiding your true self. Your friends love you because you are a good listener. They'll probably still love you if you learn to be yourself with them.

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You like serious, smart and determined people. You don't judge a book by its cover, so good-looking people aren't necessarily your style. This makes you an attractive person in many people's eyes.

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You prefer to get to know a person very well before deciding whether you will commit to the relationship.

The seriousness of your love:

You like to flirt and behave seductively. The opposite sex finds this very attractive, and that's why you'll always have admirers hanging off your arms. But how serious are you about choosing someone to be in a relationship with?

Your views on education:

Education is very important in life. You want to study hard and learn as much as you can.

The right job for you:

You have many goals and want to achieve as much as you can. The jobs you enjoy are those that let you burn off your considerable excess energy.

How do you view success:

You are confident that you will be successful in your chosen career and nothing will stop you from trying.

What are you most afraid of:

You are concerned about your image and the way others see you. This means that you try very hard to be accepted by other people. It's time for you to believe in who you are, not what you wear.

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve.


Accurate?

Touched

Just came back from CG. We sang a chinese Song just now and it is really nice! The lyrics are simple but heartfelt. Like most Christian worship songs, it speaks about the love of God. God is all about love. Simple as that. No relativity theory or whatsoever. He just wants us to know He is there and He wants us to be connected back to Him. so touched by the song today.


Got this nice wallpaper on my new lappy.




Now exams are over, i am kinda lost. Starting to research on FYP. Oh ya!!


David cook latest album are out, so all his fans do check it out.



I want to love You even more..

Rhino the fat hamster


End of Exams!

Today marks the final day of my exam! Finally. Not because i really want to end it but more of I can finally rest! been sick for so long and i really need some time to chill and rest! Believe it or not, i got today exam question 2 weeks before! he gave 115 qns and out of which 56 came out for today's paper. The thing is i am so sick, i got no time to finish. Being sick really cut my "power" by half this sem. I guess nothing much i can do about it. Pray and hope for the best!

Anyway my laptop is coming tml morning!!! I checked today's price and realised that if i order today instead of last thurs , during which the IT fair is ongoing, i will need to pay about 2.2k instead of about 1.9k!


After exams i am soooooo going PUSH MYSELF EVEN HARDER! haha..yes..after a quick rest, i will move on to FYP! So sian! going to email my prof and meet up with him. I am so going to do what i alway wanted to do. Going to bring my laptop and work at sentosa! sitting by the beach when there is no one. Going to town and get a coffee and enjoy the aircon. Read a book. RUN AND PUMP IRONS! Train Muay Thai!



And according to the song, Christmas is coming! looking at things, i don think i will reach some of the goals i set for end of this year but i guess man plans his ways but God direct his path. We shall see how!!


Can't wait for Christmas!!
