Piasau Boat Club - funny things :)

I sesat few times when i drove to Piasau Boat Club today! I ter-enter Lot 100 twice :( Lauya me!
Something funny happened today :)

TD, TD2 and me went "walking" today! I didn't notice that I have to reverse park my car so i parked "the other way" loh! (My car, the Myvi)
Mana tahu after we jalan-jalan, we received a "summon" (just a note) @ our car!
It was written: "We all reverse park at Piasau Boat Club"
Adui! So pai say but so fun! I saw the notice - only when i left Piasau Boat Club :)

Pray for me! I have to do a 3000 words essay about ME by tonight! Tomorrow - will make some cards :)

原来

原来悲观的blog比较多人留言 :)
真的吗?

这几天lepak的时候,听了很多笑话。
也被提醒我说过的“笑话”
有一些廷“残忍”的 :p
来!分享一下!

x x x

有一天我和ruidi and sandy 到北京的巴国布衣吃午饭
(巴国布衣是属一属二的四川餐馆)
当天服务我们的服务员很凶!我看不过去!所以我就说
“服务员!”
服务员来了
“你今天不开心吗?不要这么凶...我很怕!"
服务员笑了一下
"没有凶没有凶"

哈!感觉好多了! :)

x x x

有一天Ruidi说: “哎呀!自然就是美”
我的反应是: "Oh! 我很自然呢!"
-_-"

x x x

有一个小孩子炫耀她讲的故事
讲故事好像读书一样
没有高低音
而且还很尖的声音
在地铁里面炫耀
我很想过去告诉她
“小妹妹!如果你的声音从收音机出来就很棒了”
她一定会问:“为什么?”
那我就会说:“因为我可以关掉!”
感谢上帝,我内心这么说而已,我没有真的没有这么说出来!
但是,却成为了一个笑话

x x x

Wei: “玛玲,你做什么的?”
TD: 她的工作和制作有关
Wei: “不会是...制作(自做)多情吧!"
-_-"
(modified little bit)

x x x

Jun: "他们不开心因为没有机会发言"
(没有专心的marlene 忽然说)
"为什么要"发炎"? "发炎"很痛的!"
场面一片冷漠!

ok.. zzzzzzzz
要悲观一点的blog才有人leave comment
我需要被关心!
:p

很奇妙的感觉


昨天认识2位朋友
富忠和伟文
我怎样记得他们的名字也很经典
哦你就是那个“生在福中不知福”的富忠
哦你姓余吗?不然就叫余伟文了!(鱼尾纹)
Marlene, 你的头脑到底装了什么东西!???

昨天是志伟的生日。
感觉上出席的都是uncle untie在和他庆祝生日 :p
廷喜欢富忠说我大概29-31岁!好准确!
喜欢伟文说Hui看起来比我老!眼光好好哦!

整个晚上都是语言上的欢乐攻击 - 所以带来了很多的欢笑!
原来,我们4人-可以给很多少年人欢笑呢!

志伟! happy birthday! :) Hope you enjoy the day!
oh ya! JUNE!!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TOO!

But really nice meeting this new good looking kid - Jia Lun!
He has beautiful eyes and good in singing! So happy to know he will be part of our youth camp! Will pray for him! Pray that he will "meet God" through this camp :)

Nice photos

I went jogging with TD and Boy Boy yesterday. JB was there with Small Lee Hom - Augustine :)
Augustine is a very talented youth in music! Wow! I heard a lot about him and hope i could witness his play one day :)

I like this photo of Augustine :) iPhone quality - so not too good though :( The scenery is just so perfect ... with his shadow :) This photo gives me the feeling of "The old has gone, the new will come" Woohoo~ Small Lee Hom, Jia you :)
Sunset.. and go home loh~

Hope will have chance to spend more time with this talented kid. Augustine, you will be the bright star one day! Pray for you!

老朋友

今天看到Jason的blog的时候大喊了一下
AAAAAAARGGGGGGGG
第一个感觉是 - 我要减肥 :p

今天是佩虹的生日
我们有10多年没有在一起了
今天TD和我决定和她一起庆祝生日
很享受今天午饭的时间
感觉上整个Citrus 被我们的笑声包围了
我们真的很忘我的
好像笑声不用本钱的
啊!我怀念这断友情!

(真的是老朋友了!)
(佩虹一样so cute :) 虽然她是2个孩子的妈妈了!)
(蜡烛的年龄可能是虚构的 :p)

我们也邀请她一起回来教会
她考虑!她会安排!
哇!期待以后一起事奉的机会!
TD, Jason, 准备好了吗?
佩虹要回来了!

忽然怀念以前一起事奉的日子



Oh ya
今天也发生了一件很cute 的事
我让kaka 帮我买contact lens solution
我说我没有特别brand 的要求
他就买Bausch & Lomb 给我
原因是 - 因为是王力宏代言的!

SO CUTE!

我需要

我需要
停止我的胡思乱想
停止我的假像
停止我的懒惰
停止我的悲观

我需要
寻找我的梦想
寻找我的方向
寻找我的优点
寻找我的圈圈

我需要
留意我的言行举止
留意我的体重 (哈哈)
留意我的时间
留意我的力宏

我需要
更努力
更喜乐
更依靠上帝
更爱上帝

Here comes my challenge for Kwernerdesign :) Well, since i need a card for a friend tomorrow, might as well i use this colour guideline to make this card. Hm... thank God i have very small piece of Yellow and Real red in my luggage bag, else i would never be able to participate in this challenge.

Have a fabulous Birthday!

I have to say I wasn't in a good mood in card making today that's why all my cards turn out "CACAT" (handicapped). I worry about a friend in Hong Kong and did call him this morning. P-仔 is a brother who inspired me to serve @ Street Kids center @ Beijing and he is the one who makes me decided to give more than take. He is a very humble, kind and generous brother. He always an inspiration to me and a good example of God's servant.

P-仔, I will keep you in my prayer although i am not sure what is happening but you doesn't sound good just now :( I pray because I really care.

Well, not sure which part of my card goes wrong but I will still give away the cards cause I made with "heart" de~

Stamp: She is all That, Great Friend
Paper: SU: Chocolate Chip, Pink
Ink: SU: Chocolate Chip
Others: SU: Giant brad, Big note Die, Big Shot.

一点的感动

好听的说 = 我真的很容易感动 :)
难听的说 = 我真的很感情泛滥 :p

因为要去载小帅哥
我昨天把车洗得很干净
在太阳下洗得好累
:p

今天去载两位小帅哥来崇拜
2位帅哥的差别不远
一个Fit
一个Fat :p
就差一个字母

看到他们手中拿着圣经
很感动
这代表他们认真,他们珍惜~

崇拜的时候不专心
我说我不专心啦
一直偷看他们
(他们做在最左边得后面几排, 我坐右边得中间几排, 所以一直往左看 :p)
看到他们认真的找经文的时候
忽然有一点的感动
就sms他们告诉他们怎样找到使徒行传9:20节
说是一个挑战
没有想到他们很快就找到了

不是这个挑战容易
而是他们真的很smart

这样简单的东西
就让我感动很久了

都说不要叫人小看你们年轻
加油!

纸包不住火

今天的团契很棒
但是很恐怖
因为
有气球!

忽然想起在北京的一班好朋友
用“诡计”拿了我的家钥匙
趁我不在家
用气球布置整个客厅
为了和我庆祝生日
感动是一定
但是整个晚上都很害怕
害怕气球破的声音
害怕被破的气球打到
当晚睡不着

离开北京前才告诉他们
我害怕气球

我想今晚团契的人
都知道
玛玲姐
超级害怕气球了 :(

虽然有一点“鱼”(广东话)
但是没有办法
隐藏不了了



你可知道照片里面的笑容后面
藏了多少的害怕和眼泪 :p
哈哈

By the way JB, congratulations on your baptism. Better late than never :)

When you say ok to God

When you say O (read as Orgh) to GOD
everything will become GOOD
- kaka (TD's brother)

*"O" means OK in Malaysia slang :)

意外惊喜 + 思考

今天去海螺吃午饭
看到8年不见的老朋友-佩虹
很兴奋!很激动!

回想起以前我,TD和她常常在一起
唱歌,弹琴
佩虹有"很黑人"的声音
有很棒的piano skill
我们3人在教会很active的事奉
很棒的少年回忆

回想起
年少事的我们俩
同时喜欢上很cool的弟兄BG
而她开玩笑的说挑战我公平竞争
但是我很认真
我选择了放弃
只因她是我的好朋友

深思
如果今后的我
同时和好朋友喜欢上同一个人
我也会做同样的决定吗?
我想我会
那就是我吧
你可以说我苯
我傻

好在我和我的好朋友们的眼光很不同 :p

今晚的祷告

今天决定要为5位的朋友"代求"。如果你的名字不在这里, is ok, 下一次就论到你!

1。TD
-求上帝添加她力量,让她成为她公司的但以理,有强力的领导能力,处处荣耀神的名字。
-求上帝赐给她更多的智慧。
-求上帝保守她父亲的健康。

2。Hui Jin
-求上帝给她健康的身体。
-求上帝让她能够休息。
-求上帝大大的使用她。

3。JB
-求上帝医治他 “破碎” 的心。
-求上帝再一次肯定他的事奉,亲自鼓励他。
-求上帝大大赐福给他的business, including 新的 cafe。
-求上帝给他有足够的时间休息。
-求上帝让他继续用自己的生命impact更多的life。

4。Jason
-求上帝为Jason 预备适合的SnL人选。
-求上帝让他的梦想可以实现。
-求上帝大大的使用他和他的恩赐。
-求上帝为他预备新朋友

5. PP
-求上帝医治她的背和骨头
-求上帝给她一棵喜乐的心
-求上帝赐给她平安和处处保护她

有能力为别人祷告,是一个福气
难怪别人说我很有福气 (白白胖胖的缘故) :p

我会“认真”的求 :)
朋友, I care, I pray :)

Today's 惊喜

今天收到一封
一封很sincere 的
虽然不是手写的
但是真的很感动
TD, thank you. 不是我放弃你,但是,谢谢你没有放弃我 :)
这封信我看了很久
很喜欢
很开心
很惊喜
很感动

也很久没有用PC来上msn
忽然今天看到了一些的offline message,有一点感动

Andy: 我昨晚做梦到你开了一个甜品店!
我还带了一群朋友去,花了1300. 东西很好吃!

Andy, 谢谢你! 我看我甜品店和卡片店的想法,暂时要放一边。只会一种甜品,很难混到吃呢。而且你吃过的cookies, 是很容易做的,只有你们欣赏而已 :) 但是如果我开店,一定让你设计! 期待再一次和你合作的机会 :) 1300可以吃很多的甜品呢!wa! 我的店也可以卖 Marlene's Chicken wings :p Opsss... 开始发白日梦。

Jean: 你参加短宣啊! 很棒哦!我一向来认为你可以做一个很好的传道人!

Jean, Thank you! 传道人... Hm... so far never think of this yet :) But哪里知道一天会嫁给帅哥传道人 :P 或者走在前线有心事奉的弟兄 Hahahah! Just kidding! 但是,谢谢你的鼓励! 我想,现今的时代,这样的装备很重要。而且,我当自己在休息,然后再一次寻求上帝。谢谢你的鼓励!至少我比较有信心准备我6月的讲章 :) 为我祷告。

KS: I have a competition on Saturday. Quite big one. You can come?
KS! Sorry, 我是否missed了你的competition? 我想来支持! 想看你打乒乓的功夫! Thanks for inviting me!

上帝真幽默. 这个时候才让我看到这些留言,让我微笑了一下。
谢谢上帝

也谢谢Jason setup "my" drum today - (其实属于“我们”的公司啦~)很开心 :)
谢谢大家的祷告(如果有啦 :) 我相信一些朋友有啦)

很S... 也不是不好啦!
我倒害怕自己会变成很D的人 :)
D? S? 是什么?看这里吧!

我...会努力吧 :)

过渡期
需要时间 :)
需要祷告的支持

梦想和现实

回到美里足足一周了
原来真正开心得日子也只是那第一天
发现到自己接下来得日子
一天比一天不开心

我并没有把北京的过去带回美里做比较
我也没有把美里想像得很糟糕
或许我忘记把那个心带回来
或许我是约拿 - 被上帝用鱼吞回来得
不顺服-所以不喜乐
或许我有太多对人得期待
或许这样,我失望了

今天有机会和“过来人”分享我得心情
有种要离开得冲动

发现到自己从北京回到美里得时候,有少许得梦想
期待一班可以一起事奉的弟兄姐妹
期待一群可以分享心事的朋友
期待没有那么超级忙碌得生活(暂时)

但是,发现到内心的自己
看到这班可以一起事奉的弟兄姐妹时
有想退出的态度
内心告诉自己:他们已经有自己的生活,为何要介入,捣乱人家的圈子呢
连去yam cha 都没有勇气

看到这一群可以分享心事的朋友时
有想停下来脚步的感觉
内心告诉自己:你真的啊!大家都有自己的东西忙,为什么ka-ka-cau-cau呢

退缩
远离
逃避

用上课来掩饰自己的心情
用学打鼓来添加自己的快乐
用逃避来使自己更安慰

这种日子...不知道会到什么时候..

蒋牧师说:梦想要有代价
我愿意付代价吗?

刚说完,电话就响了
回来那么久,第一次电话响起... 是和工作没有关系的....
上帝给的及时安慰, 有一点满足了...
我想,New TD(Huijin)没有当时候看到我的blog 吧 :)
还送了一些很好吃的饼干给我

心情不好,所以一天没有吃东西
忽然看到这些饼干
感觉很温馨
就吃了2片

yummy, 谢谢 :)

无能为力

忽然身旁发生很多事
有些事本来已经和我无关,但却只有我可以解决
有些事刚开始和我有关,但是却没有多余的时间去理会
感觉到自己
无能为力
无助,无奈

加上很多
事奉
功课
准备功夫
无畏的“烦恼”...

Arggggg
上帝, 我需要FOCUS!

Arggggg
上帝,
我想要喝Ixx Bxxxxxx Mxxxx!
我想要吃Fxxxxxx Rxxxxx!
我想要去Wxxxx Mxxxx!

Arggggg
上帝,
大专短宣需要很多的精力
你可以赐给我智慧来解决“那些事”吗?

上帝: "Marlene, 加油...."
