New Function/Feature

Nothing much happened today.

I'm still waiting for my new Fujistu desktop that my dad won to arrive.

And my camp has upgraded all the computers. Mindef has leased all computers from HP for 3 years. That's good news. No more computers inside room inventory and the computers are so much faster. Pentium 4 with 504mb of ram and Windows XP Service Pack 1.

In case if you haven't noticed, there's now a Live Support button or icon (whatever you call it) under the About Me section. It enables you guys to chat with me if i'm online or leave me a message if i'm offline. This is a trial program which i'm now trying on my blog, bpmc, film five and GRACE's website. If the response is good, i'll purchase it and implement it on all websites that im hosting. hehe...

Okie... got to go... btw, ty the software and let me know how you find it.

Cheers and goodnight. God Bless!

Broadway Beng - starring Sebastian Tan

Sebastian Tan, our very own musical theatre star, returns from a highly successful run of Miss Saigon (UK) to be your Broadway Beng!

Of his smashing UK experience, Sebastian quips "I learnt a lot about how the English don't know how to 'lim teh' or 'lim jiu' or talk properly to 'lim peh'!" He just loves to be back home. Back to his roots as a born-and-bred-in-Redhill, Chow Ah Beng! and he is dying to tell us all about it.

Before he left for the UK, Sebastian "...Brought down the house.." (Straits Times) in KaraUok! Well expect no less this time round. Come enjoy his hokkien inspired humour as he ponders the difference between all things East and West. Come soak in his silky smooth "I'm a GeTai God" crooning voice as he rips into those Show Tunes.

You also won't want to miss his Sexy Singing Trio : "The Chio Bu's" ! Starring former Power 98 DJ Denise Tan, Leigh MacDonald "Forbidden City" and Jacky Pereira "Sleeping Beauty". Be sure to catch Sebastian Tan in Broadway Beng! He's living proof that you CAN take the Chinese Helicoptor out of Miss Saigon!

Went to watch on the opening night, which was on thursday, 2nd feb.

On average, it wax rather good, just that the opening number wasn't very good. I was nearly falling asleep by the end of the song, but luckily, it picked up and it's was laughter most of the time.

It also brings up tunes from Honk! as well as from Miss Saigon and those who wants to know what happens in a KTV, go watch it.

Cheers!

Bug in Countdown Timer

After 15 seconds of troubleshooting, i realised that what caused my blog to stop loading after the caption ORD Countdown Timer was a bug in the javascript's scripting itself.

Now, it's back up and i can finally post and blog again...

Watched I Not Stupid Too with jared today. Was a nice show. go watch it.

I've made up my mind to work for ann siang. will be resigning from cgh.

am going to malaysia at 9 plus later... hhmmm time for me to sleep.. haha...

Nitez all..

Btw, i've not received a single red packet coz i dun celebrate CNY.

Have a Blessed Gay Lunar New Year people!

Dilema

Supposed to go to city harvest church today but didn't in the end as something cropped up in church. Will be going again most prob on the 28th.

I'm in a dilema. is that how's it's supposed to be spelled?? haha....

I'm going to ORD in about 3 months time. After i ORD, i ought to be working. I've been offered jobs by 2 places. Changi General Hospital as well as Ann Siang Media. ASM is the one in charge of SGBOY.COM. So indirectly, i'll be working for SGBOY.

I want both. I love Nursing and i love the Media industry. Both has its pros and cons... Nursing = Shift Duties and 5 day week, ASM = Office hours and 5 day week. Pay wise, it's about the same so i dun really bother.

If i were to join Nursing, i wouldn't be able to go elsewhere in furture as who would want to employ me when i'm like 25 and have no other experience other then nursing? But if i were to join ASM, if i'm fired or when i resign, i can always re-join back nursing...

I'm not talking about SGBOY, as a gay point of view. I'm looking forward to it as i would be able to deal with my interest. Media. Meeting People. Making Contacts. Sigh....

What can i do? I'll just pray and pray and pray. I pray that God will lead me to what he wants me to do. Please pray along with me also. Thank you my dear friends.

God Loves You, no matter what your religion is. He Loves You.

My friends, you're Blessed! I am, too!

VIP Visit on Monday & Job Opening

It's been a tiring day. Tomorrow will not be any better. The commander of SOCPAC, a BG, will be coming over to my camp, and i'll have to do up the refreshment for them. Budget: S$100 for 10 persons. That's a lot for breakfast. And i've to set it up by 8.15am. Where am i going to get that? Well, no choice, but get SFI's help...

I'm still looking for my web and flash designer but to no avail.. I'm stressed.. Help.... If you do know of anyone suitable for this position or knows someone in need of a job, please refer them okie?

Selamat Hari Raya Haji

Here's wishing all my muslim friends a Selamat Hari Raya Haji!

Woke up late today, almost 2pm. Didn't do anything productive today. just recorded and digitized City Harvest's christmas musical drama, Christmas Land. Had in WMV format. about 600mb... Video and Audio quality not that good though.. just OK to view.. it's nice tat's why i bothered to record it down... and it was a tedious process.

Slept again at 5pm and woke up at 7.30pm to have dinner with joe.

Last night, i had someone smsing me suddenly asking how he could be a talent with my company.. hehe...

Added a ORD Countdown timer in my blog.. hehe..

Next Public Holiday: Lunar New Year - 28 February.

Okie... Time to sleep.. Goodnight Peeps!

Rainy Day

It's been raining since last night and until now, the rain hasn't stopped. I've not stepped out of the house for the whole of today. Rotting at home...

I've finally put up most of the articles onto my blog. Click on the My Articles hyperlink to view all my articles. Some are nice, especially the stories. I'm hoping to archive the Beijing Story online soon. It's so difficult to find it and i hope to archive it before that server goes poop, and there goes...

The Beijing Story is the english translation of Lan Yu, a film by Stanley Kwan. It's a classic gay novel. It was screened in singapore uncut sometime last year. Yup, i do have the VCD with me, so if you want, you'll have to contact me.

Okie.. and back to my articles. I hope you'll enjoy reading them. The very first article was in year 2001, that was when i was in sec 4. So that's when i started having my own homepage, as it was then called. Now's it's website.. haha... It's been a long way...

I'll continue writing articles when i have the time to, or when i'm not feeling lazy. It should be sometime this week as i've to have my article on my recent thailand trip for publication this coming weekend.

Cheers!

Update of Skin

I'm updating my skin again... rather, more add-ons to my skin.. haha... just that.. some of it dun work...

Well, nothing eventful happened thses few days..

Time to sleep...

God Bless!

New Song

I woke up only at 3pm today. That's a total of 13 hours of sleep. It's not always that i have the chance to sleep for this long.

Did nothing much today. After i woke up, i went online and changed all the copyright dates from 2005 to 2006.. It's a new year.. haha... Look at all the other websites.. it's still 2005.. but all the websites hosted by me are until 2006.. hehe.. efficient huh?

I've changed the song from Child of Light to Indescribable. It's a song by Chris Tomlin from his album Arriving. I'm thinking of getting his album soon. I'm also wanting to get a few more albums.. Some of those i'm targeting would be the latest one by Delirious as well as the latest one by Hillsongs, the united live series.

That should be after jan 10.. wen my pay comes in.. haha....

And i think i'm starting dating soon... I've chanced upon someone but i dunno what that person's response to me is. well, i'll take one step at a time ba and i'll just leave everything in God's hands.

Back to work tomorrow. I dread that. Ciaoz.

Happy New Year

Year 2005 has past and it's now gone. With a blink of an eye, it's already year 2006. Time really flies. It was just only a moment ago that we last had a countdown to year 2005 and before all of us know it, it's already countdown to 2006.

I've been very busy for the past week or so due to the christmas musical. I had the chance to visit Free Community Church and attend their christmas service on christmas evening.

Yesterday was BPMC's Watchnight concert and downdown service. It was the first time in BPMC's history that i saw so many people raising their hands and some jumping during worship especially during the closing of the concert. People wanted encores and eveything wasn't enough. They wanted more! How i wished that i could see this happening every sunday and that the strength of our church would grow. I believe that this is just the starting.

I went to FCBC's Youthnet new year's day celebration. FCBC has really grown. Since it opened it doors in Touch Center in Marine Parade. It's now over at Max Pavilion at Expo. Comparing it to City Harvest, the former still needs to brush up on certain aspects and it would be perfect.

I hope that 2006 will be a better year for all of us here. I pray that God will touch the hearts of those who do not know Him yet. I pray that the broken hearted, the weak, weary and worn-out souls will be restored. As for myself, I pray that my walk with God will be closer and closer.

It's 3 months more before i ord in april. I will be back to work in CGH. I do not know what my plans are or where my future lies. I can only live day-by-day on His word and what He has already planned for me. If he wants me to stop nursing and go into full-time ministry work or even full-time mission work, i'll have to follow... it's like the song... so lead me i'll follow....

I'm so glad that it's monday tomorrow and it's a public holiday off-in-lieu. I need the well-deserved rest.

Have a great and Blessed year ahead.

Shalom, God with us.
