Novelty Act 1: Excursion to Choa Chu Kang Cemetery

16th July 2011

The day I visited Choa Chu Kang Cemetery for the first time with Gibson & Ian.  The objective of our excursion was to explore and understand the historical site.  Our trip there was a memorable one for us as it allowed us to witness the differences between tombs of various beliefs. 

I am a believer of preserving the past and when I read some of the words engraved on some tomb tablets, for a brief moment I felt that I actually have known that person.  :)

Just for your interest, this link shows some of the Former Cemeteries in Singapore.

I intend to organise more novelty tours for my friends and I to experience and understand Singapore & the world better!  So yes, more events to come! :D

In the late afternoon, I went to catch the final series of Harry Potter (and the Deathly Hallows Part II).  Personally, it was pretty well-executed and probably the best out of the entire series.

For the past six and a half months, it has been bittersweet, full of adventure and lots of personal development for myself.  I really thank God for giving me all these precious experiences.

Cheers,

Acquaintances with Benefits

When I was young (in upper primary), my birthday wishes were similar.  It was to have many friends.  That could be due to the fact that I am an only child and may feel lonely at times.  Thanks to my best friends (you know who you are), I seldom feel lonely.  I can easily identify who my best friends are.  They are people I would ask for opinions on important decisions I have to make, meet relatively regularly (at least bimonthly, quarterly) for chit-chat and my life would have been very different without them. According to Robin Dunbar , in order to maintain stable social relationships where an individual knows who each person is, and how each person relates to every other person.  Friends are essentially different from acquaintances.  Acquaintances are typically: #1. People whom you may have only met a few times at an event/function; #2. Classmates/schoolmates/coursemates you have encountered casually; #...

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I h...

Outlier

It is always amazing meeting outliers. One who respectfully defies what ageing means in recent decades.  It is awesome to encounter a senior (almost twice my age) who is fitter than me. So inspiring! She embodies the example of good stewardship and living well in the last trimester of life 🧓🏻💛
