Yo!

I was at Mark's house the other day, I was listening to 'Kings and Queens' from 30 Seconds to Mars but Mark told me 'This Is War' is way better, so I checked it out.

This video may not be the original video, but who ever made it, definitely gets a 2 thumbs up from me. Its truly the best 'hand - made' video anyone has ever made, that I've seen. When I say 'hand - made' I meant, made by their own. This video wasn't made by some fancy company, I am sure it was made by some bunch of ordinary people just like you and me. so check it out! =

This Is War - 30 seconds To Mars

Self-examination

I love this song, and the video is awesome! Wont you take a look =)




Another day another day another day, as each day passes by I realize how much closer I am to my goal, but how distant it is from achieving it first hand ~sigh I'm leaving next week.. I have to admit I am a little bit intimidated, I am not sure what to expect.

I remember back then when I was a little younger, I wondered why do people have to feel intimidated or afraid of going overseas, its suppose to be a thrill! so i thought. So I guess now I realize they were just 'kia su'

I want to come back being empowered more than ever before, because this is my life, I can't afford to fool around, THIS IS MY LIFE! I want to learn and receive as much as I can in Singapore.

This is serious stuff. But gotta have fun! =D




I want to share a little something with all of you, examine yourself and be bless.


As important as spiritual qualities are, natural leadership qualities are important too. Most of the time we think that we need to work a lot on our spiritual gifting, which is true; however, Natural leadership qualities are important as well, but too many times we think to ourselves our Natural leadership qualities are good enough, but that is far from the truth. What we go through in our past experience doesn’t necessarily mean our natural skills are well developed.


Too often these skills lie dormant and undiscovered. If we look carefully, we should be able to detect leadership potential. I am not saying you picking up bible verses to share with your cell group is one of those qualities, the truth is anyone can do that routine, but it’s much more than that! And if we have it, we should train it and use it for Christ’s work. Here are some ways to investigate your potential from a book I read:

• How do you identify and deal with bad habits? To lead others, your must master your appetites.

• How well do you maintain self-control when things go wrong? The leader who loses control under adversity forfeits respect and influence. A leader must be calm in crisis and resilient in disappointment.

• To what degree do you think independently? A leader must use the best ideas of others to make decisions. A leader cannot wait for others to make up his or her mind.

• How well can you handle criticism? When have you profited from it? The humble person can learn from petty criticism, even malicious criticism.

• Can you turn disappointment into creative new opportunity? What three actions could you take facing any disappointment?

• Do you readily gain the cooperation of others and win their respect and confidence? Genuine leadership doesn’t have to manipulate or pressure others.

• Can you exert discipline without making a power play? Are your corrections or rebukes clear without being destructive? True leadership is an internal quality of the spirit and needs no show or external force.

• In what situations have you been a peacemaker? A leader must be able to reconcile with opponents and make peace where arguments have created hostility.

• Do people trust you with difficult and delicate matters? Your answer should include examples.

• Can you induce people to do happily some legitimate thing that they would not normally wish to do? Leaders know how to make others feel valued.

• Can you accept opposition to your view point or decision without taking offense? Leaders always face opposition.

• Can you make and keep friends? Your circle of friends is an index of your leadership potential.

• Do you depend on the praise of others to keep you going? Can you hold steady in the face of disapproval and even temporary loss of confidence?

• Are you at ease in the presence of strangers? Do you get nervous in the office of you superiors? A leader knows how to exercise and accept authority.

• Are people who report to you generally at ease? A leader should be sympathetic and friendly.

• Are you interested in people? All types? All races? No prejudice?

• Are you tactful (considerate)? Can you anticipate how your words will affect a person? Genuine leadership think before speaking.

• Is your will strong and steady? Leaders cannot vacillate, cannot drift with the wind. Leaders know there’s a difference between conviction and stubbornness.

• Can you forgive? Or do you nurse resentments and harbour ill-feelings toward those who have injured you?

• Are you reasonably optimistic? Pessimism and leadership do not mix. Leaders are positively visionary.

• Have you identified a master passion such as that of Paul who said, ‘This ONE THING I do!’ such singleness of motive will focus your energies and powers on the desired objectives. Leaders need a strong focus.

• How do you respond to new responsibility?

Now leaders don’t take this likely, don’t deceive yourself, and look hard into those measurements.

How we handle relationships tells a lot about our potential for leadership R.E Thompson suggests these test:

• Do other people’s failures annoy or challenge you?

• Do you ‘use’ people, or cultivate people?

• Do you direct people or develop people?

• Do you criticize or encourage?

• Do you shun (keep away) or seek the person with a special need or problem?

These self-examinations mean little unless we act to correct our deficits and fill in the gaps of our training. Perhaps the final test of leadership potential is whether you ‘sit’ on the results of such an analysis or do something about it.

Concentrate on those areas that you are weak in =) with the help of the Holy Spirit, you slowly see yourselves getting better and reaching to that Goal =)

With great love..

When was the last time I blog? couldn't remember 0.o

A lot has happen but Im just too lazy to blog about it haha

Last night 'Princess' Amy, Diana the Banana, Jasmine the Famine, Aaron the Baron, Jerold something xP, Joshua, Andrew, Peh Han and Michelle the Seashell =D went to eat at Capers. I was SO full! SO FULL to the point I was drunk with food, no really I meant that, after Capers we went to Aulait and I was just totally zone-out!

haha thats about it, another 3 weeks left

I feel a little bit sad but at the same time excited! one thing for sure, no one! NO ONE! can ever replace the friends that I have here in Brunei =)

I love you all so much

Standards revealed

Lawas was awesome,

The New Borneo Hotel is fantastic, good beds, good toilets, good TV (flat screen!) and NO BIG INSECTS =D

We (Ps Peter, Awang, Peh Han and I) went to Ps Margaret’s new house that was up on the hill, it was unbelievable; I really appreciate what I have in Brunei after visiting their home. I mean I’ve got a good roof over my head, a good room to sleep in, good food to eat and all the comfort in the world and it made me realize ‘Are we able to serve God whole-heartedly when we don’t have all the comfort in the world? When we don’t have all those things that give us comfort? Are we willing to give everything up to serve God to the fullest?’

Are we only going to desire serving in our own comfort zone? For some of us it maybe only in the worship team, serving in the nice comfortable tungku sanctuary with air-con and etc, but do you dare to serve God in a village with very little comfort, and even with very little comfort can you still worship God to your very extent?

Lawas opened up my eyes to many many things, and watch out team, I’m going full steam before I leave =D I’m blogging in the hotel room =D so tmr I’m heading back to Brunei. See you guys =D

How has it been?

SHAUN SHOWED ME THIS AND IT'S WAY COOL!






Today, I gave my first offerings to my dad, I've started earning my first pay check so I strongly felt that I really needed to honour my dad, for all that he has done for me. I didn't want to count how much I was giving because honestly, whatever that we have belongs to God, all I wanted was to count the amount of joy I had within me to give, and there was a tremendous amount of joy =)

I've made my dad proud, and I am so glad I did =')

My dad has 2 non-functioning kidneys, and he suffered a major stroke; all in the period of 4 years. Most men might have just given up working and thinking of providing for the family, most men might just have stayed at home on their beds and waited for their pathetic life to come to an end, but not my dad, even with 2 of his kidneys failing and a major stroke, he still carried on working and tried his best to provide for the family. No matter how hard it is. What a Great dad.

This morning he was mentioning to me how he carried on doing what he has been doing for all these years and he told me it's really not by his own strength that he was able to last up for this long. I believe so too. I believe God has been manifesting His Supernatural Strength within my dad for all these years, because honestly 2 kidney failures and a major stroke? for my dad to work as hard as other normal healthy men is impossible, but yet he did. God's spirit and His divine strength is more real than ever, prove? My dad is a living walking prove.

Try getting 2 of your kidneys not working and at the same time a major stroke while you're at it, let's see if you can do what my dad does, I don't think it would be that easy without the strength of God. But I was kidding, don't do that! haha =P

to give my first offerings to my dad is just touching..

I really could have broke into tears but.. you know me =P I ain't the emo type =P
Pride wah pride =P

Fresh Fire conference was awesome, as always =D my mind was broaden, and I come to really understand who our God really is, a bigger picture you might say. Not going into so much details.

Well that's about it, I'm going on hiatus haha

see you when I see you =)
