ok, so perhaps my image has been slightly deceiving... no BIG NEWS... just normal... regular... boring... bleh news...

it has been a long week!

• working (... ok... promise!... unless something interesting happens at work, I won't include "working" in my weekly updates anymore)
•  learning wordpress (as in web designing/developing... this is hard... should I even be writing this on blogspot?!?!)
• obsessed with J Dramas!!! (Kiina, Hanzawa Naoki <-- these are both REALLY good jDramas!). Each of them took me less than a week to finish :P I HIGHLY recommend them both! I think I will write a review on these two dramas... maybe review or maybe "after feel or thoughts"... will see...
• I realized you can type "ERASED" with one hand! :D
• I am obsessed with Ramen... I totally blame this on our terrible cold winter... mmmmm Ramen! :D (Ok, I gotta stop!)
• picked up reading again... (I find reading eases commute ragee on the way home, and what better way to make use of this time)
• started drinking Chinese medicine again .... ek! sorry taste buds T____T

goals for this coming week... or till I make another "updates post":

• work out more (I didn't get to work out much this week)
• I realize I have a habit of not finishing things... lately, I would start certain hobbies, books, dramas, then halfway through I would leave them unfinished... I am going to change this bad habit this week... (little steps at a time)

Serving...

What is the core when we are serving?

1. To serve because we love God?

2. To serve because we want others to love God?

The point I want to bring out is that we must always be clear on WHO we are serving and WHY we are serving. I have encountered brothers and sisters who serve and who love because they simply love brothers and sisters and friends... or they simply want people to be attracted to Christianity.

I hope we realize that:
1. We love because He loved us
2. We serve Him and ONLY Him, We serve others to serve Him

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving. (Colossians 3:23, 24 NIV)

feel free to comment your thoughts... agreements and disagreements

it's been a long time since I've written a true "Xanga" post... come to think of it, I think the last time I had written a post about "me" was when I was still on "xanga" (oops)

so this will be the first post I write about myself on Blogspot! :D

what I've been up to:
- work (literally spending 11.5 hours work + commuting every day)
- celebrated dad's birthday
- have a slight addiction to ramen (:D)
- celebrated Chinese New Year with relatives
- training my left hand how to use the mouse (because when I'm eating and I want to work, it is so much convenient to hold chopsticks with my right hand and mouse with my left :P)
- decide to go back to fellowship
- finally took up writing blogs again (I guess I must be crazy... can I pull off writing 3 blogs?)
- ... I started to update my wordpress again!!! :) (it has been a long time)
- had an interesting conversation about Christianity, Faith, God's Love (convo for... 4 hours... I think)
