Tutorial Question for My Group Mates to View

2009-01-19T20:43:00.000+08:00

ACAI Berry – Is there a lucrative market in Shanghai?

YES
Shanghai:
· “Showpiece” of the world’s fastest growing economy
· Fasting growing city in terms of population in the world; 23.8 million residents.
· Average life expectancy in 2006, 80.97 years old (Live longer, look younger)
Ø More than 20% (20.2%) of the city’s population over 60 years old and by 2020, the aging population would account to 25% - 33% of the population, thus needing more healthcare and supplements for health support

NO
· The manufacturers of MonaVie products, as well as some its senior distributors, were involved in four lawsuits in between 2007 and 2008
· The juice gained negative publicity with all the claims since it being launched in 2005
· China people prefer consuming Chinese herbs, vitamins and medicine rather than Western supplements

Shanghai - Day 23 and 24 Photos (Hangzhou Pictures)

2008-10-06T20:55:00.009+08:00

On October 1st and 2nd, a group of 10 young students travelled across 180km from Shanghai to a small town of Hangzhou for a short 2D 1N getaway from their respective OSIP companies in China's golden week break. It is when office staffs get 5 to 7 days, depending on the industry they are in. I had only five days, oh well. Anyway, let the pictures do the talking...

Day 1 Photos:

Alright.. Here are the photos for Day 13, Sunday, 21 September 2008... We visited Qi Pu Lu, a famous place for wholesale goods at very extremely cheap prices!

After that, Pearleen (from Diploma in Marketing), Rachel, Si Qian and I went to church. It is called Shanghai Community Fellowship, whereby Christian forgeiners from all over the world gather to worship God and hear His word. I will blog more about it the next time round.. :)

Shanghai - Day One Post

2008-09-09T23:53:00.001+08:00

Sitting by my laptop, typing this blog post nearing the end of the day. I am here to blog about today! Been down with flu half way through the journey of the flight till now. Do pray for me! :\

Work up early just now at 5.30am to prepare for Shanghai. Reached the airport at 7.30am, breakfast, chat up with my lovely frens, cried a little when I went into the immigration. Well, it hurts to see my mum cry when I was about to go in. I thought on the bright side, 79 days would pass by quickly and I will be counting down the days before I come back to Singapore!

Took lots of pictures on the aeroplane with Si Qian. I will post them if the connection over here permits me to do so, it's laggy. Experienced plent of turbulences on board, an uncomfortable flight with quite a bad flu. I guess its due to the dust of the blanket of the flight.

The plane landed 1 hour late, due to some delays back at Changi Airport. 2 people boarded the wrong plane that the baggage of those 2 have to be transfered out of our plane. Took a 1 hour 15min mini van ride by Uncle Tan (Chen Shu Shu) to my apartment that we stayed in. Had quick dinner, and then rushed to go online to webcam with my family and of course, chat with you, my lovely friends!

Well, that's all for today. Will blog again tomorrow! Goodnights!

CHEERS,
Sean Chew

OSIP, Here I Come!

2008-09-08T23:01:00.003+08:00

Wow. Went to school for OSIP launch and final briefing for my attachment. I was late for the OSIP launch, due to the late arrival of the bus. Nevertheless, here are some infos learnt today:

Working days: Monday - Saturday, 8.30am to 5pm
Will be picked up by an uncle at the Pudong airport upon arrival.
I am actually missed by a lot of people. (awhhh)

It is now, 11:05pm, and in a few more hours time, I will be leaving house to go to the airport! I guess I won't be sleeping too much, would be tossing and turning around in bed.

Have fun people! Will chat with you guys if I do come online! :)

CHEERS!
Sean Chew :)

3 More Days to My Birthday, 8 More Days to Shanghai

2008-09-01T23:41:00.000+08:00

Wow. Time really flies. As seen on the title of today's post, it's only 3 more days to my birthday, and 8 more days before I fly to Shanghai for OSIP! Hurray! It's a bitter-sweet feeling, I say.

Well, I anticipate an exciting birthday celebration with that special someone! Will blog about it, if I successfully have an exciting birthday gone through!

I am going shopping tommorrow, to get the other necessary stuffs for Shanghai! Things to get: new jacket, jeans, and perhaps a cap.

That's all for today!

Cheers,
sEaN-. :)

Update Entry

2008-08-29T14:01:00.000+08:00

It's been so long sinced I have last blogged (how many times have I said this?). Well, I hope to keep on blogging, especially that I am leaving for Shanghai, China, on the 9th September 2008 for Overseas Student Internship Programme (OSIP). Hope to post entries with pictures either here and/or on Friendster.

As mentioned above, I will be leaving for 79 days for OSIP at this company, Shanghai Sierli Dress Company. I am not sure of what my job scope is yet, really hope that it would not be of storefront practice. If not, I would regret going over to Shanghai. I really want to experience back end management work in the office, how retail operations work. Apart from that, I want to take some time to leave this busy and really pressuring, stressful society here in Singapore. To live independently, at least with three other friends, Hong Yi, Rachel and Si Qian. I would want to spend some time reflecting on my life, making necessary changes, and then becoming even a better Sean when I come back. These are my two main purposes of deciding on this OSIP trip to Shanghai.

Exams have just ended, and I can finally turn my attention to my upcoming birthday, at well as preparing for this coming trip to Shanghai. Well, I have not been celebrating my birthday as "happening" as before and of what I wanted for the pass few years. That's sad. I hope to have a great birthday bash this coming 19th year of existence on earth. :)

I would definitely miss work too. The unique experience of working at NewUrbanMale.com has been fruitful and enriching for me, being able to serve people of all genders, sexuality opinions, fun colleagues, and also a fatherly boss. It has indeed been an eye opener for me at yet another chapter of my life. Visiting St. James Powerhouse Station on Fabulous Sundays, having late night corporate meetings, serving friendly and not-so-friendly customers, it all sums up in one word, GREAT. Shenzi, management team people, NUM Premium guys, and other NUM boys whom know me, I will be back!

Last but not least, my lovely church friends. I would miss my wonderful Young Adults Cell! We have grown up together since children church especially John, and some whom joined in teens and youth, and those whom recently joined our cell too. It has been great knowing you guys, laughing at one another, studying God's word together, cell bondings, and not forgetting, growing up spiritually mature as a cell for God! On top of that, I will miss leading my secondary one boys cell, make sure you guys grow stronger as a cell while I am away. I will be back too! God bless you guys!

Alright, I am blogging as if I were to be gone for a very long period of time. Please bear with me, as these are actually my heart-felt words I want to say. Haha.

That's all I want to blog for today. I will continue to blog more.

Cheers guys!
sEaN-. :D

4 More Days to NUM 5th Anniversary Party!

2008-05-21T17:30:00.000+08:00

Countdown to NUM 5th Anniversary Party at St. James Powerhouse: 4 Days

Cool. NewUrbanMale.com is really a nice to work at! Hahaha. I can't wait for tomorrow's meeting. New nametags and great news!

Life has been good for me lately, been blessed well every now and then. Life now for me revolves around school, work, and church, and a little bit of family time too. Well, the most fun thing of all is definitely got to be work! I get to serve pretty, cute, sexy girls around, as well as gay men and men. It's really interesting, getting to serve people from all walks of life, rich to the not so rich, courteous to the not so courteous people around. On top of that, I'm also able to practice what I've learnt all this while in my course of study of Retail Management, so I guess I tend to be able to serve well.

Projects are getting more serious and tough. This is the 5th lap of the 6th lap of going through project life. I can say, my group is doing fine at the moment, and I believe we will have to continue to work hard and excel in our project!

I'll update more soon! :)

School and Work

2008-04-21T14:28:00.000+08:00

School's starting tomorrow, but I'm enjoying work much more.

Working today with Tze Wei a.k.a Soldier is fun! And so is working with other premium power rangers/boys/girls whatever. Shall take pictures with them soon. Then post it here!

Good day gone through!

Updates of My Life

2008-04-09T11:56:00.000+08:00

Alright. So this is my first official post of my secretly relaunched blog. I shall blog about the recent happenings of my life to get you updated!

I have got myself a new part-time sales ambassador job at NewUrbanMale.com. It has been a long process before i get to start working. Round 1 and 2 of interviews began as early as 5 and 7 March 2008, and I got through both of them. It was really a blessing from God, as there were like 94 candidates shortlisted for the 1st round of interview, and after the 2nd round of interviews, only 23 people were selected. Yeah. Trainings were held on 17th and 18th March 2008. Long hours of training, but plenty of essential information to take note of. Made friends with a handful of them. This batch is a funny one man. Haha. Started work at NUM Premium at The Heeren Shops on 20 March, the place Hong Yi was working. Work has been fun, yet taxing, due to the on-going and about to finish price tagging projects! Shall blog more about work in future.

Had 2R04 class chalet on the 2nd April - 4th April. It was fun, though there was about half of the class that turned up only. Nevertheless, it is always fun when you have Fu Sheng in your class! Our class joker! Let's view some pictures of the chalet!

Secret Post and Posts to come...

2008-04-09T10:45:00.000+08:00

From today onwards, I will post secretly. I will not make known to people that I will be blogging. So if you are here, perhaps you will read this in secretly, or just hop on to another blog.

Memorable Day!

2007-12-08T15:46:00.000+08:00

Well, folks. I guess there isn't any blue moon around these days. 24 hours after my previous post, I'm back again to blog! Read on....

Today was a good day. Interviewed and observed interviewees for Comm Skills 2 lesson today. Have got to submit observation report on Monday by 5pm. Shouldn't be a problem for me to do so, I'll do them tml. A good but tiring day, so i can't really anything now. Hahaha.

Went down to NBRC to RC to collect November's pay cheque. On the bus with Poh Teck, I sms-ed Ginni to ask her out to study at the library@esplanade. Her reply, "hey xiao di di. i'm sorry to tell u that i'm free! wad time u wanna study?" Notice the words in italics, haiz, i'm brandished as small boy. Well, I guess both "small boy" has its pros and cons. So I guess I won't worry too much about it.

Yup, we studied at the library@esplanade till 5.30pm. Had a good time knowing her better, laughing and of course, solid revision! Ginni's really a nice person to mix with! Went back to RC again to have dinner. BK! My favourite, Mushroom Swiss Double Meal, Upsize! Took a picture of me, as you can see below..... NICE?

Sean drinking Coke at RCBK :)

Yeah, I like this picture! Thanks Ginni for the artistic picture from ur handphone, so it's not ur pro-ness. :x. Kidding! But honestly, it's nice. :) Chatted with the NB guys for a while, and left for Blk 574 for CP Event - Calendar Distribution.

Went with Joan and Irene door-to-door knocking to distribute the calendars, and inviting them for the Christmas party next week. Some residents were really open and friendly, some not really. But the most important thing is to see them come for the Christmas block party next Saturday, 15 December 2007 and responding to the call of Salvation!

Overall, I had a exhaustingly good day. The main, highlight of the day was of course hanging out with Ginni. Yup. We'll study and fun together some other time again!!!

Alright, that's all for today's post. I wonder whether the blue moon will come to haunt me, or a hat-trick of posts will take place tml. Stay tuned to find out.

sEaN-.

Rare Post!

2007-12-07T15:49:00.000+08:00

Well, folks. I am making a very rare appearance here on blogger.com. Can i hear some cheers from somewhere in the page? Yeah. That's better! Thank You!!!! I've heard that.

Replying to the comment found somewhere from a particular rival blog host, livejournal.com, states this, "i love coming online recently. cos there's this person which makes me smile each time we chat. ((:". Hmmm, this quote seems sweet. I'm sure that anyone who reads this will feel loved and try to chill, but it's too hot that even I feel like I'm going to melt soon. HELP!

Hahaha.

Seoul, South Korea 2007

2007-06-20T01:25:00.000+08:00

Ok. It's very rare that I blog, especially when my last post was like in April, and I'm blogging such and early time like 7.47am on a chilling Tuesday morning. Well, I've just came back from Seoul, South Korea on Sunday night, and I'm here to blog about it.

While viewing the post, u may wanna check out the pictures I took, or rather people took of me because I didn't bring my camera along. View them at www.friendster.com/seansterr

Day 1 - Tuesday, 12 June 2007

Packed and got ready to leave for the airport at 2.50pm. Took 2 buses to the airport. 109 then transfered to 53. Reached the airport around 3.45pm, and waited for my close buddies going to Seoul and also Stephanie, Weilin and En Qi. Dinner at Popeyes, watched the aeroplanes, chatted and played to kill time. Gathered at 8.30pm at Row 8 together with the rest of the people going to Seoul. Hugs, kisses and more loves when we were about to leave to go into the departure hall. Then we realised that the plane is rescheduled to depart only at 11:20pm instead of 10:35pm. Crap. Got to wait longer again to be officially on the plane and off to South Korea. The plane took off and soon we were on our way to Seoul!

Day 2 - Wednesday, 13 June 2007 (Times quoted would be in Korean Time, GMT +9, 1 hour ahead of Singapore)

Arrived at Incheon International Airport at 6.15am. We were pushed back due to the late arrival at Seoul due to the rescheduled departure time in Singapore. Ate Macs for breakfast. Got on the coach and off we go to begin our time in Seoul!

First stop, we went to Dongdaemun Market. The merchandises sold in Doota were expensive and my group made an unknowing mistake that caused us some money for our hair bands. We bought them at 2400won(S$4) per piece where we could be the similar piece at MyeongDong(I'll blog later on it) at 1000won per piece! Next time you guys go to Seoul, NEVER go Dongdaemun! Gathered at 12pm and went for lunch at a local restaurant and we ate bbq pork. It was fairly nice for a first meal in South Korea. After that we went to KTO, where we took a few pictures with "local stars" with beautiful backgrounds. You can check them out at friendster to get a clear view and better understanding of what I'm implying. Had a presentation by a KTO representative about the happenings in South Korea. After that, we went for dinner at another restaurant. Its about the same as what we had for lunch. So, it was kind of o-kay feeling.

Finally, we checked-in to our hotel at 8pm. I roomed with Besley at 810, while Shaun Khoo and Borui were directly above us at 910. We could hear the noise from upstairs, as in the loud footsteps of them! Really loud and noisy! I took a dip in the bath tub, and the feeling was really good. It would be nice if I were to bathe in bath tubs everyday. So since I have the chance, I'll take it. Had an impromptu meeting of my group at my room. Had an early night, and off to dreamland.

Day 3 - Thursday, 14 June 2007

Morning call at an early time of 6.15am. Met at the hotel lobby at 7am. Everyone was so exhausted from the lack of rest. Left for breakfast at the same restaurant at the previous day's lunch. Nice chinese cuisine. I ated a heavy portion as I was really hungry that morning. Moving on, we got on a long bus journey ride to Hannam University for a lecture. Yes, i meant lecture. The topic was on Retail Marketing, and the lecturer was Mr Paul Leong, a close friend of my Course Manager, Mr Geoffrey Da Silva. His lecturer was rather interesting. It was like a wake-up call for everyone. Literally wake up call. He used "f***ing s***" on several occasions! HAHA. It really woke up and we had fun in the lecture! It's so funny, in Singapore, teachers or lecturers are not supposed to used words like these, or else they're fined or suspended or whatever. Yeah. Sometimes using "f***" would make a lecture interesting, I guess. HAHAHA.

Had lunch at a restaurant before Everland. I started to have splitting headache. Yeah, right before going to Everland. "Nice" timing. I don't know why. Anyway, after lunch, we went for a talk at the Everland office and then off to Everland! Well, I would say it would be very fun if I managed to play the rides. I didn't want to take some of the rides because my headache was just making me few so sick. So I just looked after the bags, handphones and cameras for my friends while they enjoyed the rides. Had dinner at Burger Cafe. Then went to watch fireworks. The fireworks were simply breath-taking and spectecular! You won't get to see such wonderful fireworks displays in Singapore, not even the annual fireworks festival. It's really cool, together with the night breeze. It will be definitely a romantic night for couples, or just hanging out with a couple of close friends. Then we left Everland reluctantly, because of the fun and laughther we had at Everland. Everland would be always in our memories, although I didn't had fun.

Got on the coach at 10:15pm and left for rest at the hotel.

Day 4 - Friday, 15 June 2007

Got up at 7.15am. Man, I hate the morning calls by the hotel staffs. Because 1st thing in the morning while you are still lazying around in bed, the ring of the phone is so irritating and so loud, you will just wake up! Except for Besley, he won't wake up even the loudest sound! I have to wake him up every morning! HAHAHA. Anyway, went to a floating boat by the shore for breakfast. It was a nice view out to the sea. After eating, we moved on to COEX Mall. It's a huge 1 level shopping mall. That begins my shopping spree. I've got a baseball t-shirt which caused me W10,000. The apparels were rather expensive there, so I've just got 1 t-shirt. Had lunch as usual, nothing much to talk about.

Off to Namdaemun Market and Myeong-Dong. Bought the ear studs needed for our operations. Then off to shopping spree!

Day 5 - 16 June 2007

Woke up at 7.15am due to the morning call. Went for a talk in a Cosmectic shop. Ms Jaclyn Tan bought alot of cosmectics from there, worth more than S$500 of cosmectics! She even got a free lugguage for storing all the cosmectics she's bought!!! Next, we visited the University Streets in Seoul, where uni versity students set up their own stores to sell their merchandises. I've got a few nice casual tees there. There were reasonably priced, hence I bought them. Off to Namdaemun Market and also Myeong-Dong again to shop, because we have not covered everything over there.

My group decided to go back to the accessories mall where we've been there the previous day. We were shocked that it was already closed already at 3.15pm!!!! We were all left frustrated and filled with regret. We then decided to source our merchandise in Singapore and went on shopping at Myeong-Dong.

Went back to the hotel after dinner and shopping at Myeong-Dong.

Day 6 - 17 June 2007

It's the last day of the trip already, so everyone was exhausted and reluctant to leave the hotel. Left the hotel only at 8.45am, behind the scheduled time of 8.20am. Had breakfast at another chinese restaurant. The food was good, and they had peach juice in carton and fresh milk too. It was certainly splendid for the last provided meal of the whole trip!

Went to take pictures at the South Korean palace, and also went up to a hill. The view from the top of the hill was good. The fresh air, and also the nice scenary, I just can't wait to show you guys the pictures! After that, we went to a local provisional shop selling Korean local products. The prices there were expensive! Besley's group, who were doing on snacks were simply shocked! They bought their remaining snacks there and were disappointed because the prices there were just marked up highly!!!!

After buying our snacks, we got on the coach and off to the airport. Sad. The ride to the airport was 10mins, and we will definitely miss our very enthusiastic tour guide, who brought us lots of joy, laughter and also information about South Korea!!! We wish him all the best in everything he does!! He's really a nice tour guide!

After checking-in, we realised that the flight is re-scheduled again! Damm. We were supposed to depart at 4.40pm(Korean Time), but it has been shifted back to depart at 5.10pm due to flight connection stuffs. Frustration again! Left South Korea at 5.30pm!

Arrived in Singapore at 10.15pm(Singapore time, duhz)... So let's calculate. The whole flight journey was 5 hours 45mins! Phew, that is long. I called my mum when the plane touched down, and glad that she was at the airport to pick me up to go home! HOME SWEET HOME!

I would definitely miss South Korea. Would wanna go there some other time again!

Cheers!

End of Boredom

2007-04-17T22:17:00.000+08:00

Alright. Today marks the end of boredom for me. Why? Because I wanted to rest for 1 week after working for 1 month at J8 Watsons. I had a fun time working there, getting lots of retail experience. So since last Thursday till today, I spent lots of time at home, enabling my body to take a good rest!

Tommorrow will be the 1R03 chalet! That's right, tommorrow! I really hope majority will turn up, if not, the whole class. I've been totally looking forward till the day, and it's finally arriving tommorrow. Will be meeting up earlier to check-in early. For the guys, I know Bo Rui, Shaun Khoo and myself will be meeting at 2.30pm at Tampines interchange.

I've added music to the blog. Current song is "With Love" by the beautiful Hilary Duff! Enjoy the song, and I'll be back this Friday afternoon, reporting my new class timetable for the Academic Year 2007/2008 and also on the chalet!

sEaN-.

07/08 Timetable out on Thursday

2007-04-16T22:13:00.000+08:00

Ok. I won't be logging into TP's website impatiently to find out the timetable already. It will only be released this Thursday. But on Thursday, I'll be at 1R03 chalet! HA. But don't worry man, there's always Besley and his PDA phone!! With his phone, we can check out our timetable one by one! Man, I just can't wait to see my timetable and knowing who will be together with me in the same class!!!

15 April 2007

2007-04-15T22:08:00.001+08:00

I really need to find the lost source I require to blog again. Can someone help me with it? Meanwhile, let the picture do the talking then. He's Ben Thia. He's a really a nice guy, thats why he looks like me physically and character wise.. I'm not a poor house host as him though, HAHA.

1R03 class chalet is this coming Wednesday! I honestly can't wait for Wednesday to come. It's the last time we'll be together as a class, and I really wish to have a fruitful and well spent time during this chalet. Totally looking forward to it!

Timetable's is coming out tomorrow, from what I estimate. So try to login to check it out!

I've got my inspiration!

2007-03-06T17:19:00.000+08:00

Ok.. So I've got my inspiration and motivation to blog already. From who? It's from the you know who! WAHAHAHA! So I shall blog according to the you know who suggested.

Firstly, it's about God! God is just giving me more and more responsibilities in this earth, and I would gladly take up anything from my Heavenly Dad. I want to prove my love for God, by following His ways, such as taking up the Cross and following after Him!

Secondly, school life. Well, Year 1 of my poly life has just ended 1 week ago. Final exams were rather manageable, except for those tiny little careless mistakes I've made. Grrrr. 1R03, a class of wonderful bunch of people from all walks of life. Smart, responsible, quiet, outgoing, sporting and the list goes on..... Hated by my classmates at the beginning, and then loved as they get to know me more! Though the downs in poly life, the ups are always there to bring me back to my feet, which I truely wanna thank God deep down inside my heart.

Thirdly, church. Church has been rather great! The P6s boys cell is becoming easier to manage and all thanks to the 3 leaders serving. Randy and Beatrice have been great serving alongside me in the cell. From naughty boys, to not-so naughty now. Good improvement which brings all glory to God! My church buddies I really thank God for are John and Jon Neo, and more.. They are really supportive and nice to chat and hang out with!! Though John loves to pang seh people! LOL!

Currently, I'm having 7 weeks of holiday, so I'll be looking for a job to spend my time wisely! Hmmm.. I shall blog till here. Got to re-charge my inspiration !!

Cheers,
sEaN-.

Boring CNY as usual

2007-02-20T03:41:00.000+08:00

HAPPY CNY TO ALL, though it's a sad and boring one for me yet again.

I will have to wait for a miracle..................

1st Blog Entry in the New Year

2007-01-18T12:04:00.000+08:00

Hey everybody! Happy New Year! WAHAHAHAHA! I know that I'm lag, cause now it's already the 17th day of the New Year. Laggard. Boo! Ok. Anyway, this shall be my first official blog entry this year.

Well, many things happenned from the start till now. Had leaders retreat from 1st to 2nd of January at Legends Golf Resort @ JB. Great time of bonding, sharing, and vision casting for the year 2007. I'm sure 2007 will be an exciting year. Uncle Daniel's vision of seeing the Teens and Youth Ministry(formerly known as Youth Ablaze to grow to 400 people! I would share this dream with Uncle Daniel that we will grow to 400 people! It's possible!

This year would be a good leadership experience for me too. Having learned some leadership skills from Eugene Chia after leading together the Sec 1 Boys cell, I would want to continue practising it, and also to learn from Randy and Beatrice this year! It was indeed a wonderful time leading together with Eugene and the Sec 1 Boys, but I'm gonna miss them dearly. But life has to go on eventually. Randy, Beatrice and I are leading the P6 Boys cell. It's going to be a fun time, cause the boys are the noisiest, rowdiest etc. You name them, you've got them. Hahaha!

Moving on a few days after the new year, my long lost cousin(paternal's side), and her future husband came over to visit my family. It was really God's will that they came over! We have not seen one another for almost 10 years, ever since my dad passed away on 15 January 1997. They are inviting my family for their wedding dinner on 27 January 2007. Gosh, I can't wait for it. It will be the first time for me, attending a wedding dinner! I wonder how it's gonna be like and enjoy myself there!

Has been busy these few days with projects. Projects deadlines are coming real soon. Hope that my groups will do well, and get good grades. Mid-Sem tests were rather surprising. Here are my results....

Principles of Retail Management : B+
Retail Accounting 2 : A
Retail Shopping Behaviour : C
Business Statistics : B+

Didn't expect to that "well". Had little time to study before the tests, and the week after the test were holidays! So, I had little motivation to study. Thank God for the results!

Alright, that's all for now.. :)
Once again, Happy New Year ! :D :D :D

28 December 2006

2006-12-29T15:16:00.000+08:00

Today was rather a good day for me. Got up at around 10am feeling very fresh and good. Did some homework, 1 homework to be exact. Retail Accounting 2 Tutorial. Got to church at 5.15pm for the debrieft for Love Letter. It was a rather short meeting, ended quite early. Gave Stefanie her Christmas present! It was so late. Sorry Stef! U should know the reason now why I gave u late, yah? Million Apologies!

Had Subway for dinner, and it's the first time eating that for me! Catered by the bridegroom-to-be this Saturday, Mr Wan Wei Chuen. It's going to be so exciting. Jon Neo and I have been anticipating this event for quite a while already. I will be helping out as an Usher and also moving the equipment back to the original places, that is the chairs back to 207, put the 2 platforms back to 303, put the flower pots back in front of the Auditorium stage, and clear the flowers away. Lots of things to do man! Yup. Thank God I've have wonderful and helpful friends to assist me.

Great, I need to restore discipline and motivation to studies. Projects, homework and more. God, please help me! :\

Christmas 2006

2006-12-27T03:43:00.000+08:00

It wasn't a well spent Christmas Day this year again. The story follows.

I stayed over at Jon Neo's house together with Ken Soh. While I was talking to Stef on MSN, Jon Neo and Ken Soh were happily drinking throughout the hour. Ken Soh drank 1 glass of wine, while Jon Neo drank 4 glasses !! And then Jon Neo got drunk. So he did all the funny stuffs, I won't elaborate so as to respect his privacy. Had a hard time taming him, then finally he got to sleep after I prayed for him.

Got up next day(25/12/2006) with slight flu. I thought it was alright, but it worsened throughout the day. Wanted to follow Jon Neo, Kenneth, Hoi Yan and her friend to town, but I simply couldn't stand the non-stop sneezing every now and then, so accompanied John to shop around at Kovan, then went to his house to seek medication. Slept on the couch after taking the pills. I was very weak at that point. Woke up a few hours later, feeling abit better. Then, I went to John's room to use the com while he was busy wrapping Christmas presents. Ate 2 chicken wings and 1 slice of log cake which his parents bought. Superbly delicious. But I couldn't really taste it because of the flu. :(

Went to meet with Jon Neo and Kenneth again at 9.15pm at P.S. As usual, I continued sneezing non-stop. Kenneth lent me his jacket while we walked around Orchard. Left at around 11pm and got home! Home Sweet Home! It's so good to be home, as I wasn't really at "home" this few days. Popped another 2 pills of Panadol Cold, used the com and then went to sleep.

Indeed the answer was shown to me on 23 December 2006. So she was meant for me. God, I surrender my all to you.........

The Promise From God

2006-12-20T15:05:00.000+08:00

23 December 2006. The day where my life would never be the same again. I will know the answer from God. All the signs were come to a halt, as the answer will be made known to me. I will submit to His plans regardless the answer. Don't ask me, unless you are someone who is very closed to me. So far only 1 person knows this..........

4 more days away only. Be patient, Sean.

18 December 2006 - 7 more days to Christmas

2006-12-18T13:54:00.001+08:00

As you can see, I haven't been blogging since last month. The inspiration by the person did really spark off a little flame to motivate me to blog. Haha. And Hong Yi told me to read my Retail Shopping Behaviour Notes on Motivation. Didn't need to read it, cause studying the mid-sem test made me remember quite a bit in that chapter. The main thing is Karen Horney's CAD Theory, Compliant, Aggressive, and Detached Personality. I guess I have the complaint personality. I go with what others say, and not really against others.

Talking about mid-sem tests. All the papers were rather okay. Except for the Business Statistics, Question 2B. I can't believe I can't solve it. Formula was right, application of the numbers were right too, but still can't solve. I will still get a few marks for the formula though. I didn't expect Principles of Retail Management to be a breeze! I guess many people would agree with me. Retail Shopping Behaviour required lots of thinking, but it was quite alright. I struggled with Retail Accounting 2 paper at the start, but I managed to complete the paper, but had problems with the Merchandises Management question, the Specific-Unit Cost, Weighted Average Cost, First-In First-Out(FIFO), Last-In First-Out(LIFO) methods. I didn't attend that lecture, because I went to help out at my church's Youth Camp. So had to depend on God and also Besley's help for me. Yup. Hope to receive positive results when I receive my results when school reopens.

Alright. Let's see what will be schedule be like this week.

Wednesday -> 3.45pm @ Church - Musical Rehearsal for Christmas Service
-> 8.30pm @ Costa Sands Resort(Pasir Ris) - Sophia's Birthday Chalet

Thursday -> Evening @ ??? - Dinner with Randy and Beatrice to discuss on next year's P6 cell

Friday -> 7.30pm @ Church - Carolling Practice then to 2 units at Blk 244 for Carolling.

Saturday -> Late Morning @ Church - Final Musical Rehearsal for Christmas Service
-> 3pm @ Church MPH - Fiesta
-> 5pm @ Church L2 Auditorium - Musical

Yet to be added : Christmas Shopping, Group Projects Meeting, Renewal of Sentosa Membership Card

Phew. Quite busy for me as you can see. I've watched the musical rehearsal for the first time yesterday already. It's simply splendid. But there are areas of improvement that can still be taken to perfect it. A great to look forward to! :)

Too Little Too Late.

Blessed be Your Name - Matt Redman

Blessed Be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name

Blessed Be Your name
When I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed Be Your name

Pre-Chorus :
Every blessing You pour out
I'll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in, Lord
Still I will say

Chorus :
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name

Blessed be Your name
When the sun's shining down on me
When the world's 'all as it should be'
Blessed be Your name

Blessed be Your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering
Blessed be Your name

Bridge :
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your name

This song reminds me of how awesome God's Name is! Blessed be Your Name, my Heavenly Dad!

"Lover of Our Soul" Camp is coming soon! Be prepared for a fun-filled camp from 1 to 3 December!

Signs off;

The Weekend and today spent!

2006-11-14T14:10:00.000+08:00

Indeed, a marvellous weekend spent. I'll start from the events happened on Friday night, then end with today. Hang in there....

Friday Night - 10 November 2006

After cell finished at 10pm, the guys in our cell went to play basketball! Had lots of fun playing. We played for quite a while, and it was tiring man! After that, we went to celebrate Ben Thia's and George's birthday at the melting pot area. Had puddings from Ben Thia's mum and chocolate popcorns by Sheena to replace the traditional birthday cake. After celebrating, it was time for last minute discussions for the Sec 1 Bonding Camp. Shu-En, Eliz, Vennie, Andy Quek, John and I gathered at 302 for the discussions. We had fun, and joy while brainstorming and discussing the events. Then we went to bed, or rather into our sleeping bags at 3.30am.

Saturday - 11 November 2006

John and I got up at 7.15am. I went to wash up and then went to John's house to get some stuffs that he had forgotten to bring. Then we went to 105 market to have a delicious bowl of Lor Mee for our breakfast! Headed back to church with carrot fingers for the rest of the leaders to eat.

At 9am, the Sec 1s started coming in and registered for the camp. There were 19 Sec 1s who came at 9am, but it was okay. Gathered at the chapel for ice-breakers and briefings for the camp. Off to Pasir Ris Park at 10am! Reached there around 10.20am.. Started playing the games.. The games were the sponge and apple game, parachute, and also captain's ball! I realised that all these games can be played at church, no need to go Pasir Ris Park to play !!! HAHAHAHA. Anyway, the sec 1s did co-operate and had lots of fun playing those games! Had mixed veg rice for lunch and then played basketball after that. It rained shortly after playing, but we ought to thank God for the brilliant weather for the activities carried out! Praise the Lord! Headed back to church at 2pm, reached at 2.20pm. Free and easy until 4pm, then went up for Youth Ablaze Service at the usual 4-6pm.

After service, it was outdoor cooking time! Group 1 won the games, so they had the right to choose the instant noodles and then the other dishes such as longans, sausages, luncheon meat, sardines, etc. As for me, HAHA. I've cooked a sumptious meal for myself. 2 Packets of Instant noodles, 3 sausages, 1 egg! Very filling and very delicious!! HAHAHA. Next, it was Night Games and then the finale. The sec1s did enjoyed themselves of the games played. Maybe I can suggest to people who want to know. Thank God for the new and creative games we've played!! :) After that, IT WAS MIDNIGHT SOCCER! The boys played, and we had lots of fun playing and bonding together! Played till 1.30am, washed up and then off to dreamland.

Sunday - 12 November 2006

Got up only at 9.50am. The male leaders were way too tired! So the female leaders took the lead then. Thanks Eliz, Shu-En and Vennie !! Didn't know what they did, but I'm sure that they've done a very good job! Break Camp after that, and the objectives of the camp were definitely met! The Sec 1 Guys and Girls bonded well and I pray that they will continue to bond well together as 1 cell, no disputes and conflicts, and grow spiritually stronger! Went to P5 Jet Program. Stacia was the speaker for the day. She did well from my Point of View! WELL DONE, Stacia! Had a P6, Sec1 Zone(2007) meeting after that, led by Uncle David and Auntie Tiak! I will be leading P6, alongside Randy and Beatrice. I will definitely miss my current Sec 1 Guys cell! Went back home to rest after lunch with the zone.

Monday - 13 November 2006

Woke up at 8am ++ reluctantly, still feeling tired from the lack of sleep during the camp. I dreaded going to school(camp blues, I guess, HAHAHA), but after praying, I felt slightly better and ready to go to school.

Had CommSkills Tutorial as the first lesson of the day. The class was more participative in the discussions! That's good! I went to present the discussion our group had. It was hilarious as usual! I guess I'm really good at informal presentations, not at formal presentations! LOL! Ok, I've to get serious for formal presentations real quick!

Went to MENSA 2 to have lunch with Besley, Bo Rui, Hong Yi and Shaun Khoo. I ate the mouth-watering Chicken Chop and mushroom soup as usual! Very tasty! Went to BizPark to slack and then went for Business Statistics Lecture. Lecture was okay, manage to know what Mr Teo was teaching. Had PRM and RSB discussions with my group after the lecture and then went home.

Okay, I'm back talking to Stefanie again, after 90 days of "isolation" from her. It's really a long story, and quite dumb of us. HAHAHA. And I guess she's having a crush on me! HAHAHAHA! :D. Okay, I'll stop here for today! Take Care!

Stabbed.

2006-11-10T14:57:00.000+08:00

God! What an up and down day for me. Here's today's entry.

Woke up early this morning, even though my sch starts at 11am. Reached sch at 11.05am. Then had Communication Skills Tutorial. Ms Lau showed us the topics for the CommsSkills 1 Assignment 1. I think I'll choose Education, as I feel that it would be easier. I had a presentation, which I didn't do well for it. After that, had group activities. And this part, I was screwed, stabbed and betrayed. Ms Lau went out of the class for a while for something, then my group members told me to get the markers. In my mind, I knew that it's not right to take the markers. And I fell into peer pressure. So I went to take the markers from Ms Lau's box. Then some of my classmates, saw me taking it and they wanted it too. Being nice of me, I gave them the markers. When Ms Lau was back, she realised that her markers were "stolen". Then she saw me with the markers. Then she said,

Ms Lau : "Sean, is it right for you to take my markers without permission?"
Me : (Feeling guilty). Nope. I am sorry. I will not do it again.
Ms Lau : "You know that it's wrong, then why you still take it?"
Me : (Remained silent)
Ms Lau : "Who else took my markers?"
Some of the girls in the class : "Everyone in the class took it"
Ms Lau : (Asked all the other groups) "Who else took it and why did you take it?"
Hidayah : Sean.
Ke Chia : (Points to me)Sean.
Anisa : (Points to me)Sean.
Ms Lau : Sean ah. Next time, please don't do it again. It's very rude ok!
Me : (Feeling damm pissed and Remained Silent with BLACK face)

DAMM! I WAS SO PISSED AT THAT POINT OF TIME! I FELT SO STABBED IN THE BACK!!! COME ON! IS THIS HOW YOU TREAT YOUR CLASSMATE?? IF YOU WANTED AND TOOK THE MARKERS, YOU JOLLY WELL OWN UP AND DON'T PUSH THE BLANKING BLAME TO ME! HOW WOULD IT FEEL IF ALL THE BLAME WERE ON YOU? THINK ABOUT IT. I SERIOUSLY HOPE THESE 3 GIRLS I MANAGED WOULD FEEL GUILTY FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. IF THEY DO NOT, I DON'T THINK THEIR CONSCIOUS EXIST AT ALL!

So I was so furious throughout the remaining part of the tutorial. Absolutely moody. Ok, I'll stop writing about today's CommSkills tutorial. After that, I went to Jupiter Cafe to meet up with the rest of the guys. Then, we went to the library to slack. Bo Rui and Jackson left shortly. So left Hongyi, Besley, Shaun Khoo and me. We had a great time chatting, laughing and crapping around. I enjoy the company of the guys! They are really good to me, and I am good to them. Wait. I am always good. But when people stab me, HA. Wait and see. You'll never like to see "Angry Sean". I will give you nightmares. And I mean it. I called Xiao Qian to ask her for Jasmine's number, cause Shaun Khoo wanted it to call her for some stuffs. Chatted with her for a while too. I like talking to Xiao Qian, becoz her voice is so sweet. It kills off all distractions and anger I have. Very effective. HAHAHAHA. After having fun in the library, we went to BizPark, and I had my lunch there. Went to CDS tutorial after that.

I love my CDS group! They are so open, and we are doing well for our project. I'm so blessed to have group members like them, although CDS tutorial is boring. After CDS tutorial, I went to Hougang Plaza to play pool with John.

I dominated John in the beginning. But thumb was over frictioned by playing too many games. So John caught up! We played 11 games altogether. I won 6 games, John won 5. Ate dinner with him at Kopitiam. Then went home after that.

As I was beginning my blog entry just now, God reminded me about Jesus dieing on the cross for all our sins. Jesus was purely innocent, and didn't even deserve to die on the cross for each and every of our sins, so that whoever believes in Him, will not perish but have eternal life. It was like a reminder to me on what happened today at Commskills tutorial. I should choose to be like Jesus, and shouldn't bear grudges. Forgive and forget. Well, as the saying goes : tommorrow will be a better day. I pray that God will control the current situation and also more of my un-saved friends to believe in Jesus. Thank you, God!

Okay, tommorrow will be a busy day for me. Retail Accounting Tutorial beginning at 9am, followed by Retail Accounting Lecture at 11am. Then got to rush down to meet Andy Quek and John to prepare the Logisitcs for the Sec 1 Camp on Saturday. Then, cell group from 8 to 10pm. Then meeting up the rest of the Sec 1 Leaders for briefing, praying and preparing for the camp at 10pm, then staying overnight at church. So tiring! Well, I am gonna use the internet for a while more, then off to sleep!

To sum up today : I am a nice person, I will treat you nice. I hope to get the same treatment back too. If you don't, you will not like to see Mr Angry Sean, becoz Sean doesn't explode easily. I do forgive people easily too!

Take care everyone!

30 October 2006 - Monday

2006-10-31T12:12:00.000+08:00

Its the first day of week 2 of sem 1.2. There are mixed feelings for me. Happy, because I can finally go back to school to study, and build relationships with my classmates! Confused, because I'm not too sure what's wrong with some things.

Reached school at 10.45am. Saw Wei Lin at the bench outside library. Went over to chat with her. Then came Jackson, and Shaun. Shaun and I then went to find Hong Yi outside LT20. Had a good time catching up what we've last seen last Friday!

First lesson of the day, Communication Skills 1 Tutorial. Did lots of activities today. As usual, the hyperactive Hong Yi and Me brought up the atmosphere of the classroom scene! :D HAHA! After CommSkills tutorial, we went to BizPark for lunch. Ate, Chat, Slack. Then went for Business Statistics Lecture.

Business Stats is getting tougher after each lecture. I'm staying more focused in Bus Stats lecture, because I really wanna do well for that subject. Lecture ended at 3.20pm, and went over to find Xiao Qian for a short chat! She has changed her hairstyle again, and also wore specs! HAHA! Look a little kiddy, though. I am still expecting the belated birthday present that she owed me! I'm waiting, and waiting and waiting for it for a long, long time already! HAHA! She said that she would pass it to me on Wednesday! Hope she doesn't forget again! I'll remind her on Tuesday night, so that she'll bring it on Wednesday! Anyway, I've already got her present early, though her birthday is less than 3 weeks to go! See, I'm so good eh? >.< !

I'm half way through Business Stats Tutorial 2 questions, and I can't carry on for now. It's giving me headache calculating it. Don't believe, try it. It really trains patience and focus. HAHA. Ok, looking forward to tommorrow. I wonder who's group should I join tommorrow for Principle of Retail Management's project.

I'm off for now, Hope u'll continue to drop by my blog!

The end of my busy weekend !

2006-10-30T10:59:00.000+08:00

Finally, it's approaching the final hours of the busy weekend of mine. It started on a late, and disappointing Friday evening of heartbreak. I received an e-mail from Auntie Oi Lin, that my sermon was way off topic, that it should be re-done! But I have to acknowledge that Auntie Oi Lin is an experienced JET teacher, and a school teacher herself, so I have to respect her for that. I was loss of words. I was furious. I was down. I went to bed early on Friday, as I couldn't take it that my draft was totally way off topic.

Got up early on Saturday, more refreshed and relieved, I called Wendy. We discussed over the phone on what is really the best for me to preach on Sunday. After much discussion and help from Wendy, we came to a final topic, "Honouring God". It's a much better sermon done up, definitely oweing lots of thanks to Wendy. Thanks Wendy! So, I edited the slides ammended by Wendy, did the discussion questions and my own copy of the verbatim. Rushed to church at 1pm for the P5 JET meeting and followed by the Sec 1 Leaders Meeting at 2pm. We discussed the Sec 2s(2007) groupings and also the Sec 1 Bonding Camp. Sad. 1 year is going to pass, and I would certainly miss the fun of teaching the Sec 1 boys, and I won't be following them up to Sec 2, because I will be co-leading the P6 boys cell group together with my favourite leader, Randy Chan, and Beatrice! Ok, at least I would have the honour to co-lead with Randy. He's really been a good leader to me for a few years and I would be glad to serve alongside with him.

Ok! For Today, the day of my preaching of my sermon! Got up at 7.30am to wash up and to go to 1st Service. I cried today in worship! It's been a long time I've cried during worship, probably God is healing the "wound - the harsh words said by Auntie Oi Lin". It's a great feeling, though. Ok! Now to the presentation of my sermon. It was probably a good effort put in by me, because it's the first time I am preaching to a group of about 40 people. It wasn't the best sermon to be remembered, but I certainly hope and pray that the kids would bring home a memorable message taught by me! I've got an encouraging bookmark by Auntie Lai Fong, if I am not wrong. Its from 1 Corinthians 15:58 - Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immorable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. Thanks to Auntie Lai Fong, if I am not wrong! HAHA. After the sermon, Auntie Oi Lin talked to Ching Yee and me. Although there were nasty and frank comments, I believe God has a purpose for us, as P6 leaders next year. To really put in lots of effort in teaching, and love the kids! Thanks, Auntie Oi Ling!

Alright, now its only 6.56pm, and look as if it's 8pm. It's going to rain soon, and the sun will shine upon me. I've got a great week to look forward to. Back to school. Back to tutorial lessons. God, give me strength to go through this week, I pray. In Jesus' Most Precious Name, Amen ! Hossana to the Lord Most High! :)

NTU Student survey - Funny comments

Funny Video ! WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Feeling down.

2006-10-28T07:03:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, I wished that God will bring me home as soon as possible. I don't want to stay on this cold world, where there are wars, sufferings, pain and not forgeting, rejections. Sometimes, I even feel that I'm not being appreciated, and being loved at all. Cheer me up, show me love. :(

Tata Young - For You I Will

2006-10-03T00:27:00.000+08:00

It's been a blue moon since I've blogged. Well, nothing much to scribble about on. Let me introduce to you to this song by Tata Young. It's basically a lovely, romantic song! You've got to hear it, and you'll fall in love with this song, For You I Will. Check out the lyrics !

Tata Young - For You I Will

When you're feeling lost in the night
When you feel your world just ain't right
Call on me, I will be waiting
Count on me, I will be there
Anytime the times get too tough
Anytime your best ain't enough
I'll be the one to make it better
I'll be there to protect you, see you through
I'll be there, and there is nothing, I won't do

(Chorus)
I will cross the ocean for you
I will go and bring you the moon
I will be your hero, your strength
Anything you need
I will be the sun in your sky
I will light your way for all time
Promise you, for you I will

I will shield your heart from the rain
I won't let no harm come your way
Oh these arms will be your shelter
No these arms won't let you down
If there is a mountain to move
I will move that mountain for you
I'm here for you, I'm here forever
I will be your fortress, tall and strong
I'll keep you safe, I'll stand beside you, right or wrong

For you I will, lay my life on the line
For you I will fight, mmm, for you I will die
With every breath, with all my soul
I'll give my word, I'll give it all
Put your faith in me
And I'll do anything

The birthday period spent!

2006-09-07T12:40:00.000+08:00

Listening to my mp3 songs and now getting ready to think of wad to blog about, I realised that I should blog about the long period I've spent to celebrate my birthday. So guys, this is how I spent my birthday.

2 September 2006

Woke up very early, cause I'm excited and already expecting a surprise, or rather expected cause I've read Jon Neo's blog about the thing. HAHAHA. Too bad, Jon. Reached church at 3pm to prepare Holy Communion, as it was my team doing ushering. Many leaders weren't around, due to BB/GB retreat, MENS Encounter, etc. So it was Andy Quek leading Holy Communion, and Randy introducing the speaker, David Lim! HAHAHA. The funny people! After sermon, here comes the surprise. The birthday boys, John and I were already on the alert. First, we were told to eat Pandan Cake, of course we refused. Then, we went to the pantry area to clear up the Communion. Hansel and Jon Neo then smashed the pandan cake on our faces, yucks. Thank God, I didn't kanna much. The whole pantry area turned into a mess. Joan and Ching Yee then helped to clear up. Ok, then comes the real cake! It was a nice chocolate cake. Thanks to those who bought the cake: Joan, Ching Yee, Kenneth Soh, Hansel and Jon Neo. Received birthday presents from Ryan and whoever shared the presents, Clarissa, Vanessa, Denise! Thanks guys and girls ! Played basketball till 8pm, then went to PS for dinner at PASTAMANIA and for a movie, "The Devil Wears Prada". A nice and funny movie. You must understand their language, then you will understand the movie. Recommended to watch. Reached home at around 12.30am. Off to bed at around 2am, after a long and tiring day outside.

3 September 2006

Woke up around 9 plus. Got ready quickly and rushed to church. Hansel and me sat together. Jon Neo and John overslept and gave service a miss. After service, went to Andrew's house to borrow soccer equipment to play a friendly match against Living Praise Church. I played the last 15mins of the match. Our church lost to them 4-6. It was a good game, although we lost. Cabbed home, with Andrew's parents. treating the cab fare.

->4 September 2006 ! <-

Happy Birthday to me! Received the first ACTUAL DAY birthday text message from Hui Ni! HAHAHA. THANKS AH! More text messages came after that. Thanks everyone, I really appreciate them! Soon, the friendster testimonials started to flood in. THANKS TOO! LOVE YOU GUYS! Went out to celebrate my birthday at Marina South with my fellow classmates! Carol, Yi Sin, Stephanie, Ke Chia, Yi Sin, Wei Lin, Crystal, Jackson, Hong Yi, Bo Rui, Besley and me WENT ! We were eating half way, then suddenly Ke Chia started getting the girls busy. I was puzzled them, then suddenly they counted 1..2..3.. and sang the Happy Birthday song to Wei Lin and me! My birthday is on the 4th September, while Wei Lin's was on the 5th Sept. So it was kind of like more glamourous for me ! LOL . Just kidding. Opened the gifts on the spot, I've got a pair of RIP CURL slippers and a nice green Tee-Shirt ! HAHAHA. I prefer Wei Lin's gifts. So nice ! Diamonds leh! HAHAHA. Anyway, after the dinner, we went up to Supercue to play Pool. Was on and off form and certain points. After playing a while, all except Jackson, Besley, Bo Rui and me continued playing pool. Yeah. Reached home at around 12 plus ! This year is truly a year of surprise. I thank God for those surprises and presents blessed upon me! God, You're the best!

5th September 2006

I got up at 7am to go to The Aldephi to report to Watsons HQ to collect my name tag. It's my first day of work since early April ! And I am attached to WATSONS ROADSHOW @ Hougang Mall Concourse! I work as a cashier and stuffs, kind of like the same as what I had done 6 months ago. I saw familiar faces too, that's why I had so much fun working! Finished work at around 6.30pm, and I was dead beat. Still missing many hours of sleep, due to the lateness to bed these few days. Yeap. Met up with Jon Neo and John to go New Park Hotel to have Mentoring Gathering. Everyone turned up, except for Eugene, who has some meeting to attend to. We ate GLORIOUS FOOD. And I MEAN GLORIOUS FOOD. As I am typing these, I hope you're not drooling too. From Sharkfin, Deer Meat, Sliced Fish, Pork Ribs, SHASHIMI, SEA CUCUMBER, to Drunkened Prawns and more, we ate like kings man. THE BEST PART is, that our mentor, UNCLE KK, paid for us. It's like $30.50 per person w/o GST and all the other taxes, and we'll just pay him $10 this sat. Its A'La Carte Buffet. Its really good food! Yah. Ate for 3 consecutive hours, then left that place !

6th September 2006

Got up at 8am plus to prepare to go to work. As usual, I did cashiering at Hougang Mall Concourse. So feel free to drop by and shop or say Hi to me, yah? HAHAHA. Had Canadian Pizza for lunch, a treat from the new supervisor of Hougang Mall Watsons. Man, I feel that I'm really a prince, after eating so much good food these few days. Hopefully, I'll be able to put on some weight! Hahaha. Built up friendships with the other "partners", joining WATSONS in the roadshow. So do come and take a look if you guys are free!

Okay! So I have described briefly wad happenend through out the 5 days! Thanks for reading my blog. I'm off to take a break after rushing through this whole entry! Cya guys soon ! :)

Countdown to my birthday : 4 days

2006-09-01T13:15:00.000+08:00

Today is the last day of August, and its also 4 more days to my birthday ! The excitement is finally building up after a long week of main examinations. It's time for holidays ! Hurray !! Oh, can u feel it too? HAHAHAHA. It's time to catch up with friends and with God after this two weeks of busy muggings. It's so tiring, and it's finally over!

Things are getting better, I'm glad. Step by step, slowly. Hopefully something nice may happen. (If you know what I mean). :D Anyway, I'm happy now. So a happy song, or rather lyrics. Lol. Enjoy ! :)

THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS LYRICS - Sway

When marimba rhythms start to play
Dance with me, make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close, sway me more

Like a flower bending in the breeze
Bend with me, sway with ease
When we dance you have a way with me
Stay with me, sway with me

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now

Sway me, make me
Thrill me, hold me
Bend me, ease me
You have a way with me

Sway with me
Sway (Sway) (Sway)

Other dancers may be on the floor
Dear, but my eyes will see only you
Only you have that magic technique
When we sway I go weak
I go weak

I can hear the sounds of violins
Long before it begins
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Make me thrill as only you know how
Sway me smooth, sway me now
Sway me
Sway me
Sway me now

That's all.
Mood : Happy go lucky!

Countdown to my Birthday : 8 days

2006-08-28T10:30:00.000+08:00

Countdown to my Birthday : 8 days !

It's kind of like reaching already, but i feel its like a few more months down the road. I'm just not prepared for it. I've heard that i would get a suprise soon, but do not know when, thanks to a spoiler. HAHAHA. Okay. The reason i'm not prepared for my birthday, it's because of my exams. It's like the whole of this week, Monday to Thursday, and the papers I'm taking are all 2 hours. YES. 2 hours. I'm not to used to 2 hours paper, and I'm quite worried something might go wrong, and I have the pressure to excel. Hopefully, things would get better by Thursday, after Marketing Fundamentals paper.

Okay! So today has been a long day for me. Woke up at 7am to prepare myself to go to church to serve God in the ushering. Had breakfast with John at Kovan Macs, and reached church at 8.40am. I served for two services, the 9am and 11:15am service. I had fun doing ushering today, as usual! But to make things a little worse, when i was serving in the second service, I asked a man to move into the centre aisle, but he refused. You know what did he replied? "Why of all people to move in? There are also other people who are sitting by the side aisle WAD", justifying his stand in an angry face. It's like hey come on, I'm serving God and doing my duty as an usher. How on earth is that such a person? No respect for others. That's the last thing he should do towards an usher. I wonder if he do that to his boss, if not, he doesn't even deserve to work at all! So sickening. Anyway, went off to Leaders Meeting and Mentoring session after 2nd service Communion and Offering.

Went to S11 for lunch with John and Jon Neo. Joan and Ching Yee joined us later. After eating, John, Jon and me played basketball in church, and then went home after playing a while. Now I'm at home, and I'm half way studying my Management Notes, preparing for the exams tommorrow. All the best for me, yah? HAHA. Okay, I'm going back to study already. See you guys soon, take care! :D

sEaN-. Mood : So-so.

Michelle Branch - All You Wanted

I wanted to be like you
I wanted everything
So I tried to be like you
And I got swept away

I didn't know that it was so cold
And you needed someone to show you the way
So I took your hand and we figured out
That when the tide comes
I'd take you away

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wantedwas somebody who cares

I'm sinking slowly
So hurry hold me
Your hand is all I have to keep me hanging on
Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares

All you wanted was somebody who cares
If you need me you know I'll be there
Oh, yeah

If you want to
I can save you
I can take you away from here
So lonely inside
So busy out there
And all you wanted was somebody who cares

Please can you tell me
So I can finally see
Where you go when you're gone

Phew. I feel a little like this song now. If those who know me well, would understand. Yup. Jon Neo, i'm still above you in CS. buck up, son. HAHAHAHA !

A Secret Crush Revealed

2006-08-17T12:28:00.000+08:00

Started the day by revising accounting and economics. Left the house at 11.30am to have lunch at Hougang ave. 4. As i alighted from the bus, my sling bag suddenly gave way and snapped. I was stunned. I carried only light stuffs in my bag, yet it happened. So i had a quick home, and rush home to transfer the stuffs to a clear folder. Left home again at 12.10pm. Reached school at 1.20pm. Obviously late for POM lecture luh, 20mins man. The latest ever in my TP Life. WAHAHAHA.

As I stepped into the Lecture Theatre, Hongyi and a few other guys called my name. Then Hongyi suddenly said to me,"Sean, I thought u wanted to sit beside her?" I'm like, oh man. Stunned on the spot. Became so shy and embarrassed, i gave him a smile and just quickly find a seat to settle down. HONGYI ! U WATCH IT AH !!! EMBARRASSED ME IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE RMT !! LOL. Man, shouldn't have tell Hongyi who i liked man. Humph. now its like half of the people in my class know already, and the whole of her class know that i like her! :
Hongyi told me what really happened a little. HAHA. It was so comical. Serve you rite, LIM HONGYI. >.< ORBI GOOD. KPO SOMEMORE LUH ! HAHAHAHAHA . LOL! I sound so evil. Went to MENSA to eat, then to the library with Shaun, Hongyi and Besley to study. Studied till 4.30pm, then went off with Besley to go home.

Ok, I shouldn't deny that I have a crush on her. She was also embarrassed because of Hongyi. I feel so bad. I think that she's kind of shy, and I was shy too. That's why I didn't dare to talk to her after class. I hope that she won't bear grudges on me. Ya. Hope that tommorrow would be a good day for me to befriend with her, after my shyness has evaporated. Yup, and I shall see where and how God would lead me. YEA! Before I end off, I would leave u guys with a verse from the NKJ version bible.

Proverbs 3:5-6
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

Take care and God Bless !

LSBC Church Camp 2006 - Supernatural is natural !

hey guys! its a been a long time since the last blog entry, so i will blog something good. i have just returned home from church camp, and i must truthly say that i've enjoyed myself very much ! i will try my best to blog everything from Day 1 to Day 4, so hang in there ! :D

Day 1 - 13 June 2006

met jon neo and his bro at 7am at church to go to the nearby market to have breakfast. had prawn mee and soya bean for breakfast, and great fellowship too. went back to church to wait to get on the bus. while waiting, i played basketball with a jon + ben neo, and dex. we did that to kill time. so nice plan, eh? ha. after playing, at around 8.10am, the bus mates i knew well, jon neo, hansel, kenneth gwee, kenneth soh, james low, and yingzi got on my bus(bus no. 10) and left for KL ! WOOH! long journey.

reached sunway pyramid tower hotel at around 3pm. once we've got there, jon neo, hans, kenneth and me did our favourite thing. TAUPOK! yes. taupok. on who? needless to say, our one and only john ho. we TAUPOK-ed john like no one's business. so fun! hahahaha! i really pity john, but i love to do it. hahahahahaha! got briefed of the camp at the convection hall at level 10, pyramid 3, and went to my room - 10102(nice number), together with my room mate, jon neo to settle in.

we went for early dinner. the dinner was awesome. i had very heavy dinner. from main course all the way to desert. it was great. after dinner, then came worship, message and ministry. it ended at around 10pm plus. stefanie didn't had dinner, so being so kind of me, went to buy "dinner"(which is supper to me) for her. yup. i didn't had supper, becoz dinner was still in my stomach. pranked some people, and then went to sleep! HAHAHAHAHA!

Day 2 - 14 June 2006

got up at 6am to wash-up. hansel and john came to my room to meet jon neo and me for breakfast at 6.30am. needless to say, breakfast was magnificent. i felt and ate like a prince. after eating, jon neo and i went back to our room to rest, and it was still early. went to prank and made morning calls to other people, if they were still sleeping. >.< . on came john and hansel to our room to watch NBA Finals Game 3 between Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat for about 30mins. my place became the meeting place for the four of us. cool eh? then went for worship, message 2 and discussion. the message was "The SuperNatural Nature and Forgiveness". strong message. i learnt that through forgiveness of others and yourselves, you will be healed. for eg, any illness that you have! what a miracle! praise our God!

after discussion, it was lunch. i couldn't eat much for lunch becoz i ate heavy breakfast. the food wasn't that good either. after lunch, went back to room to slack again and then went to pyramid tower 2 for indoor games. cute and funny games. john was the overall game IC for the games, so we would support him no matter what. lets see the games we played. game 1, lsbc racers. first, pair up and get into the "nascar racer", which is made of cardboard boxes. then run through a short zig-zag course, up to 2 chairs, down, and up another 2 chairs and down and stop. catch balls thrown by a blindfolded team mate, and run back to the starting point to give the racer to the next pair. jon neo and i cheated as usual. who cares btw? lol. game 2 and 3 were bored, so i dun wanna blog about it.

after games, it was free and easy. so it's shopping time! the whole shopping mall was huge! it had an ice skating ring, cinemas, plenty of shops etc. went around the shopping mall window-shopping and shopping too! i bought a new sling bag, and a pair of slippers. they were cheaper than singapore by alot, so i bought them! but the shoes, NEVER EVER buy there. it's more expensive than singapore! after shopping, then went for dinner. dinner was great and i was super hungry at that time. the food was good too! thank God!

after a quick dinner, i went around the shopping mall again to look for something to buy for Stefanie, becoz i owe her an apology on 10 June. so being nice of me, i went from top to bottom, and bottom to top, and down all the way to "Memory Lane" to get her something. it took me about 50mins to think and finally buy "something" for her. if u wanna noe i bought for her, go ask her! :D. so shopping for so long, i was late for worship. :\ . i felt very guilty, becoz i hated to be late for worship. after message 3 and ministry, the four of us(john ho, jon neo, hans and me ah. ), went to play bowling! played 2 games of bowling each. wasn't really on top form, but i managed a few strikes. yea! after playing, then we went back to our respective rooms to turn in.

Day 3 - 15 June 2006

woke up at 6am to soak in the hot-water bath tub again. the feeling was really really good. went downstairs to have breakfast at 7am. food was as usual good. went for worship and message 4. then had discussion. i went to my youth cell to lead discussion together with eugene. had a quick one. after discussion, it was lunch. went to A & W to eat. its so rare to see an A & W restaurant around already!

after lunch, it was free and easy for many hours. john and i bought 2 sunway lagoon all parks ticket, and went to meet john and dex at their room. then went to sunway lagoon!!! played 2 rides of the "lung-choking", but fun rides. then it rained heavily. -_- . after the rain, we went to play the water slide. it was so fun man. after one round, went for more and more rounds! it was super duper fun! then it rained heavily again. -.- . then we decided to go back to our hotel rooms to wash-up and get ready for dinner. dinner was awful. but we still have to thank God for food, or else won't be able to survive. yup. went back to my room to nap awhile, as i was soso tired. woke up at 7.30pm and went down to the convection centre for Holy Spirit Nite!

"Holy Spirit Nite" was so powerful that night. i was still tired after my nap, but after sitting on the chair for a few mins. i was suddenly so energetic! i wanted to be touched by the Holy Spirit at that nite, and i was focused throughout the praise and word session by SP. i was ready to be touched, and the Holy Spirit presence was so strong that i felt down to my knees and down my head on the ground only after the first worship song. How Great is the Holy Spirit! I ministered to many people that nite. My cell members, Gabriel, Daryl and Marcus were ministered by me, and of all people, Daryl was slained! Thank God! Daryl is usually playful and not willing to hear the word of God. I was proud of his decision to receive the gift of tongues! Praise the Lord! I prayed and ministered to Jon Neo too. I could feel that the Holy Spirit was working very strongly in him when i was praying for him. Thank you Lord!

after Holy Spirit Nite, the 17-year-old people went for supper. ate alot of good dishes, such as fried oyster, stingray, chee cheong fun and fried kuay tiao. so delicious! after supper, went back to our respective rooms to sleep. i lent stefanie my jacket, caused she was cold and needed more clothing. i'm so nice! HAHAHAHA!

Day 4 - 16 June 2006

woke up later this time. at 8am. went for breakfast at 8.30am. breakfast was good. the miso soup was the best, although it was salty. HAHAHAHA. packed up and was unwilling to leave the hotel. we would surely miss the place alot. :( .

took the coach from 2.15pm and reached church at 8.45pm. so long journey. but many many things happened on the way back! approach me if u wanna noe. it's very very funny! HAHAHAHA. i can't stop laughing la. HAHAHAHAHAHA !

I love CHURCH CAMP 2006 !!! SUPERNATURAL IS DEFINITELY NATURAL!!!!!

Everything To Me.

had a great day. worship at cell was awesome. thanks kenneth for the new song, Everything To Me, by Avalon. I fell so deeply in love in this song that i feel a need to sing this song everyday. well, here's the lyrics of the song. hope u guys will enjoy it ! (:

Everything To Me - Avalon

I grew up in sunday school
I memorized the golden rule
And how Jesus came to set the sinner free (sinner free).
I know the story inside out
I can tell you all about
The path that lead him up on Calvary

But ask me why He loves me
And I don’t know what to say,
But I’ll never be the same because
He changed my life when He became…

(Chorus)
Everything to me! (everything to me)
He’s more than a story (more than a story)
More than words on a page of history.
He’s the air that I breathe, (air that I breathe)
The water I thirst for, (water I thirst for)
And the ground beneath my feet
He’s everything, everything to me! (Ahhh, Ooooh, Ahhh, Ooooh)

(Verse 2 – Up one chord)
We’re living in uncertain times
And more and more I find that I’m
Aware of just how fragile life can be.
I want to tell the world I found
The love that turned my life around
They need to know that they can taste and see.
Now everyday I’m praying
Just to give my heart away (to give away my life)
I want to live for Jesus
So that someone else might see that He is…

(Chorus)
Everything, everything (ev’rything to me)
He’s more than a story (…to me)
More than words on a page of history
(The air that I breathe) He’s the air that I breathe (air that I breathe)
The water I thirst for (water I thirst for)
And the ground beneath my feet
Oh, He’s everything! (Oh , He’s everything!)

And looking back over my life at the end
(I’m going to be…) I’ll go to meet you saying you’ve been…

(Refrain)
You’re everything to me (ohhhh)
More than a story (ohhh)
(More than…) More than words on a page of history (history) (history)…

(Chorus - Up one chord)
You’re everything to me! (everything to me)
You’re more than a story (more than a story)
More than words on a page of history.
You’re the air that I breathe (the air that I breathe)
The water I thirst for (thirst for)
And the ground beneath my feet
You’re (everything) everything! Lord, You’re everything to me!
(Everything to me) (The Water I thirst for)
You’re everything to me, Jesus! Ohhhh!
(Everything to me) (Water I thirst for)
The Air I breathe, the Sun I see…Ohhhh!
(Everything to me) Everything to me!
You’re my Life, my Love, Everything.

weeks to happiness

its just only 3 weeks to church camp @ KL . i can't wait for it . :D

Great Day !

2006-04-23T13:56:00.000+08:00

woah. finally today's going to end. what a day! morning was frustrating. afternoon was better. evening was the best. read on . :)

reached church at 3.10pm to set up projection. i didn't expect my junior, rueben, to be there so early. he had finished setting up everything when i've arrived. so what i had to do is to scan through the worship songs to see if there were any errors. i though rueben would have done a great job, so i just skim through. went to 205 for cell discussion. five people including one lost sheep returned, chien hui! i pray that he will continue to come for cell and enjoy it too! :D. today's topic was tough to teach. eugene and i were struggling to teach the youths. but thanked God that we were able to send the msg to them! had worship at 5pm. rueben and i did projection today, and to my horror, there were spelling mistakes at the first song! "Let You fire fall" wasn't correct. it should be "Let Your fire fall". The title of this song is "Shine in Me" ! A great song! A learning point for me, to be more focused. word was by Daniel Lim on Practice of Worship. Strong message!

went to have dinner with dex, ken soh, and ben neo at blk 246. the mixed veg rice was great. superb. after eating, went back to church, then to 303 to jam! i couldn't find any drum sticks ard, so i used two markers found nearby. dex, the musically-superbly-abled praised me for the improvement of my drums. thanks dex! after a while, jon soh, ben thia, cliffton, george and jia jun joined us. played 6-man tag team(wrestling) in 303. Cliffton, Ken Soh, and me VERSUS Ben Thia, Ben Neo, and Dex. the result of the match : no contest. played until like crazy. HAHA. afterwards, dex, ben thia and me triple team the FAT Ken Soh! Ben did the cripple cross-face, while dex and i did the ankle lock on ken soh's right and left ankles respectively. ken soh obviously was screaming like crap man! haha. too bad didn't take a pic of it. ken soh's face turned super red man!! HAHAHAHAHA ! i had a great, great time! then cabbed home with dex after that. here i am, at home !

tommorrow's ANTOR's outing @ Sentosa ! I pray for good attendance, great weather, strong bonding and fun! it's the last chance to have fun together and go crazy before school starts on monday :\ .

church camp's coming ! it will be at KL from 13 to 16 june. i will be bunking with jon neo! to neo : i would love bunking with u too! MUAHAHAHAHAHA!

Hey everyone ! This post is meant for Antors only ! This is the very updated one.

FOW/FOC Outing this Sunday at Sentosa !

Things that you should bring : Towel, Clothes to change, Toileteries, Tanning Lotion, $20-$30 cash.

We'll be combining with Beenox for the outing, according to my co-planner, Felicia!(:

If you guys can't make it for the outing, don't be upset. Do join us for dinner at Harborfront Food Centre at around 7pm. Ring me up @ 90101672 or Felicia @ 91993343, if you're meeting us for the dinner only. Then after dinner, we'll go somewhere else if we do have the energy.

The reason of having the outing this Sunday, because school reopens on Monday. We'll tire ourselves badly, so that we'll be able to turn in early, won't toss around in bed becoz our excitement of going to school! Smart rite? :D. So I'll hope that you guys will come for this outing! Your presence is strongly encouraged! Last but not least, let me do something that I'm dying to do.

Hey everybody, its been a while since i have last posted ! Yea, cause i was so busy with work, this and that, etc. So my deepest regrets to those who came to see that so old entry.

Well, TP Freshman Orientation Workshop(FOW) was magnificent ! I made lots of new friends ! Praise the Lord for His promise for me ! I pray that i would make more new frens in TP, so that i will be able to lead them to Christ, as God has instructed. I thank the Lord for Christian frens such as Flannery, Felicia and Jasmine ! I also pray that they will lead their frens to Christ, to let them noe that Lord, You are the way, the truth and the Life ! In the Most Worthy Name of Jesus I pray, Amen ! Although my empire, Antor, came in 4th place, I still love Antor and I love TP ! I love the cheers especially! So happening !! :D

Ok, I shall blog about today ! Woke up at about 8am to go to church to prepare some last min work for the Easter Event, ESPRIT! Was rather tired, coz I slept late and woke up early ! But nvm, I still manage to survive, even now ! :D Did lots of preparations and then till 5.30pm, the ESPRIT party took off ! I was the music DJ for the day, and everything went smoothly. Didn't go for the service at L2, cause i had to prepare the MPH for the party, straight after service. Yup. Finished everything at about 8pm, then went to Joe's house !

I played with his two dogs as usual, Storm and KB ! So cute man ! Well, the purpose of going to Joe's house was not to play with his dogs, but to play Oasis ! I like to play that game, but still, u noe, trying to master the game. Played with Joe, John and Jon Neo. I came in 3rd and 4th position for those 2 games we played. When will i be 1st ? HAHA ! After playing, I took the train to AMK, then took 88 home. Home Sweet Home ! Ok, going to sleep now ! Take lots of care, everyone ! God Bless !! (:
