Asia Conference 2010

2010 is the 2nd Asia Conference (AC) that CHC organises. From glory to glory, so of cos this years' was full of good visual and audio effects, but more importantly, SPIRITUAL atmosphere!

Unfortunately, i was down with gastric flu by noon of 1st day... what a spoilsport..... :( was having fever on Wed and Thurs. Slept thruout for these 2 days acty...

However i am happy that i finally can make it on Friday evening session! Yippie!


After zzz for 2 full days, i am finally well-enuff to hit Expo for the 3rd night! :)


3rd night was a YOUTH night! Pst Kong talked abt how the youth Christians are decreasing and that many of the great man of God started their ministry in their youths! Even though i am no longer a youth... (sadz man...) i could feel that excitement in the atmosphere that night! I almost wanted to just become a youth again! hahaha...



Q-ing up in Hall 10 so that we can get into Hall 8.. Nothing to do, so took a snap.



There we were, IN Hall 8! MK was happy...


Sunday was the next highlight too, the last shall be the first and good things are reserved for the last, so Sunday was the last day of the AC. There were A LOT of ppl man... cos not only our church with AC, we also have another church next to us who is also a mega church, plus there were couple of exhibitions and the Expo food fair too! SO, can you imagine ?!
The night finale session was 530pm and we started to Q at 230pm in Hall 7 and already, 3/4 of the hall was filled at 230pm! WAH...



Us in Hall 7, Q-ing... very bored acty.... haha..



So, finally at 520pm, we managed to get into the main Hall. By that time, the hall was 95% fulled. MK and my heart just sank... Still, we walk rounds and rounds to LOOK for seats.
Finally, after near 10mins of walking rounds, i just approached an usher and said i need 2 seats. Lo & behold, she acty said "This way pls.."
!!
We followed her all the way up to the terrace area and REALLY, there were some seats!!! PTL!! Though it was under the aircon, but we were contend to be able to have decent seats in HALL 8!

The last night was phenomenal! Dr AR Bernard preached abt Self Concept and self esteem and how these tie in with the Cultural Mandate that we have always been talking abt.
And so, AC 2010 ended with a big bang... good lightings, great sound, good visual effects, tangible presence of God & great word definitely!.... But i wonder how many of us will carry these Word and have a breakthru in our respective life...
Afterall, its no use to only go thru that hype for its only a one-time event, but whats for life is that encounter with Abba Father. :)



Us with our teary eyes, taking a picture after the whole AC ended... We were both impacted and very touched by God... *Grateful*...



After AC ended, we went to Bukit Timah to have dinner, oh or maybe its supper! And what else? Chicken rice lor... sooo unhealthy, but i like! hahaha!

So for now, i say BYE AC 2010 and See you soon in AC 2012!

Couldn't believe it!


After almost 5 months from delivery til now, i couldnt believe that i could fit just nice into this dress!

Was window shopping one of the Tuesdays and saw this dress that i like. The first thing that came to my mind after i took it out from the rack was "Wah, only 1 size, i confirm cant fit in one lah". But nonetheless, i still give it a try. In the end, i could fit in wor! Really cant believe it!

Ppl ask me what did i do to slim down. Actually, nothing much, other than cutting down carbo significantly during my confinement period as well as the month after that. I did walk 20 storeys of stairs for a start shortly after i resume work, but slowly died down as I was OT-ing most of the days...

Really thank God that i am now even lighter than my pre-pregnancy wgt! (err, acty i put on quite a lot just before pregnancy la.. )

I arent any model so its definitely not as nice as how these 2 pic look, but i am happy that i look presentable. Thank God, really!

Almost 1 month!

Gosh, its almost a mth since my last entry here.

Have been really busy at work recently. Unhappy, stressed, anxious, tired, etc.

Not trying to be negative, esp that i have God, but these, unfortunately, are my exact feelings for the past 1 mth. Going into office feeling so stressed, and easily anxious abt work. Even during my Bintan trip and normal weekends, i keep thinking abt work and how never-ending they are.

In the end, i decided to resign. Handed THE letter to my manager on Wednesday. He kinda expected it. Well, afterall i broke down a number of times in my cubicle as well as once in front of him. :I He defended a little and explained that he really did tried his best to bring in the additional headcount, but its beyond his control. After hearing that, i know in my heart that there is nothing more he can do. This position will continue to be THIS heavy.

Just watched Iron Man 2 on thursday and what Virginia Pebble said right after Tony saved her is exactly what I have been feeling all these while, "My body literally cannot take the stress anymore, I quit, I resign!"

My hair was dropping more than usual, having gastric attacks due to stress (i guess) during office hours are not uncommon. Working for more than 10hours with only less than 20mins of lunch was also nothing new in this dept.

Yup...

But, i dont want such lifestyle. I want a work life balance lifestyle. Afterall balance is the key to LIFE.

Hopefully after this, i will be able to find a new job that has work life balance. Not only pays well, but bring satisfaction.

So, my next post......?

Soon! :)
