朋友变同事

 
最近的工作很忙,很多事情做,过得很充实。
工作中最开心的事,就是为自己的好朋友办理入职手续。很简单的东西下意识里都要 double check 一下才放心。
好朋友变同事是一种什么感觉?在神的眷顾中有着什么样的安排?
从此我们便会“出双入对”,某些人已经在严重羡慕中。。。
heehee...
 
 
我也想你了,pp,来上海吧!

the Pursuit of Happyness

 
Will Smith stars in Columbia Pictures' The Pursuit of Happyness 
 
  Movie Description: Chris Gardner is a bright and talented, but marginally employed salesman. Struggling to make ends meet, Gardner finds himself and his five-year-old son evicted from their San Francisco apartment with nowhere to go. When Gardner lands an internship at a prestigious stock brokerage firm, he and his son endure many hardships, including living in shelters, in pursuit of his dream of a better life for the two of them.
 
  
   
 the Pursuit of Happyness
 
~ Running to get your Time Machine ~
 
there are 3 leading actors in the moive: Chris, his son, and his "Time Machine".
 
Chris lost his "Time Machine" many times, he run to get them back; he run from the taxi, cuz no money to pay; he run to catch the bus after work, cuz there might be no free place left in the shelter... and he run... run... run... for a better life. 
 
(at the basketball court, Chris talked to his son)
Chris: Don't let somebody tell you, "you cannot do something", not even me. All right?
Son: All right.
Chris: You gotta a dream?! You gotta protect it. You want some? Go and get it ...
 
(in the tube station, after they were evicted from the apartment)
Chris and his son lived in the station toilet for over-night. the "Time Machine" led them back to the age of Jurassic, they escaped from the dinosaur, and hided in a big cave (toilet), they were happy, cuz they were saved (someone kicked the locked door).   
    
the movie is about running for life, about lose & find back, dreams may run away, but you gatta hold your belief, hold your own's "Time Machine", because it helps you to find your way, to walk through the space tunnel, and to make your dreams come true. we all need a cave to hide, to protect ourselves and to save us. but it may be not a comfortable place, the room may be small, the condition may disappointed us, but we know we are safe, so what feelings can be better than sensing the peace. what difficulties we cannot bear? what fears can threat us?         
 
~ Climbing Big Mountains ~
 
(church worship)
 
the important thing about climbing the mountains...
we all deal with the big mountains, you know to pass the big mountain,
the mountains would be real high, mountains can go deeper low,
yes, we know these big mountains are,
we sing about them...
 
seems hard to bear, but i wont give up,
cuz You promise me, You lead me out of it
please dont move up those mountains.
  
we all need courage to ask God to make those mounatains stay in our life, to make them firm and burdensome ~
we all need strength and wisdom to climb the mountains, to search His will and to make us more like Him ~ 
when the broken machine was fixed by Chris in the dark corridor, a small bulb can lighten the whole room, i dont know what he saw in the light, his son fell asleep peacefully, so many people are just like him homeless, or... he may see his future, as bright as the light... i think he is happy and hopeful...           
 
~ Are you Happy? ~
 
what is Happiness? i cannot think of a defintion.
like Chris named his life in different times, what can i call this part of my life? race just begin... prepare to run...
 
mmm... maybe "A Blank Paper" is better...

一个多月没有写,不太想写了,让我慢慢恢复吧!
回家了,很凉快,很多蚊子,咬得我一片一片,刚刚打死一只,听声辩位打蚊子。
家里的饭很好吃,但是还是要学习。
感觉有点奇怪,一个星期内,nottingham-guildford-home,很多事情做,加油吧!
peggy, lillian 也要努力了。

 

 
我发现,我妈变年轻了,我爸没变老,我姥姥瘦了,身体好了,变漂亮了,姥爷变黑了,奶奶美白了,皮肤好得不得了,舅妈变胖了,滋润得不得了。其他人还没见,估计也都得让我眼前一亮。为什莫他们都说我没变?奇怪。
改天给他们一个成熟look.

从现在开始。。。

 
自从考完试,一直都是在混混沌沌中度过,不知道早睡早起的习惯什莫时候才可以养成?在家的时候,妈妈从来都不让我睡懒觉,即使是在冬天,也会一早把我叫醒。不得不承认,没有人管的日子实在是很舒服,没有人逼着你做这个,做那个。想起来,爸爸妈妈很少用命令的语气和我说话,其实我挺乖的,极少数情况顶嘴,大不了左耳听,右耳冒。。。装听不见。。。更气人是吧!
 
我觉得自己算得上有主意的人吧!可是有时候,其实很简单明了的事情,就是弄不清楚,容许我一年当中有几天头脑短路吧!不过,可能有些事情就是需要别人清清楚楚地告诉你,那个你已经知道的答案,心里才可以安心。有时候,我信不过自己,但我信得过神,信得过我的那些爱神的朋友们。。。
 

 
 
休息了一个星期,很无聊的一个星期,所以决定不可以再这样,做个好孩子,好好学习,从明天起!上个周末去看了X-Man: The Last Stand,没有前两部好看,但还是很好看。我喜欢里面那个会隐形的小女孩,Scott Charles 竟然开始没多久就死掉了。。。
 

 

明天去看Da Vinci Code,回来就好好读书了,周三约了老师,大概知道写些什莫,慢慢来吧!Mission Impossible永远都是Possible的,不是吗?哎?我要不要去看 MI3?哈哈,算了

Attitude

 。。。。  can you see the shop's name in the picture? it is called: Lamptitude - even lamps have attitude. but what are their attitudes? so, it must depend on their hosts, their preference, the use of the lamp, the style and the decoration of the house, and etc. 
 
i think, to people, "attitude" is a great word that may bring us so many insights, it is about personality, about passion, about culture, about life and world view, so that is why we all different from each other. i just had a group assignment with 5 of my classmates, all of us worked hard, but because of the differences, sometimes we have arguments, have disappointments, maybe a bit anger as well. but i realised, these problems were not only brought by our different study attitudes, but also relate to our life style, time consciousness, maybe even to the background of the people (not discrimination). i think most of us don't like group assignments, actually i don't like either, but sometimes it is interesting.
 
But what should christians have our attitudes to our life? one of my dreams which i had on my last birthday, i want to (maybe i have to say must) achieve financial independent this year, i hope i can have a job asap after i hand in my dissertation in sep, money suddently becomes important to me, is it because of the duty to my parents? my attitude to be a good daughter? or actually i want to pursue a better quality life? i am confused myself, what should i order my preference when i put God in the first place? what should be the second? my future is still empty, there is no decoration, so tell me how can i buy my lamp?

End up 2005

                       

   Finished Org. Theory 5000 words big assignment, suddenly my sky so bright, haha... havn't really seen the blue sky for ... didn't remember for how long, my time is totally messed up, now is 4:30am, i am still in a clear mind, these 2 weeks time, i was like a worm, crouched in my flat, did not go out for ages, my goodness, but prepared to go back guildford the day after tomorrow.      

 

 But i began to feel to complete a essay is like a crafting process, like what we learnt in the qualitative research lecture. it is like a piece of art, from a blank paper, to full of letters, haha... not only letters, but to learn how to organise what you know, what you read, i don't really like brain storming, sometimes it is suffering, cuz you cannot think any ideas, but finally when you finish it, you always know what you learnt is much beyond what you wrote down. although i said i just want to pass, desire nothing else, but i think i still have some ambitions to get higher marks, hehe... ... of course pass is always the bottom line.  

 

It's a belate White X'mas

Ice Cold

ICE COLD

how can be like this? so cold, snowed a bit yesterday, quite big snow, but just a while, hope more will come in the new year. The thing is: freezing outside, but in the room no heating, no hot water, had twice ice cold shower, then i became to know now what is called suffering, when will they come to replace our boiler? Come On !!! Quick !!! 

p.s. i don't understand why they open air conditioning in a such small lecture room, even colder than outside, is it because they think it will make us more concentrate to the lecture??? well, i felt sleepy as usual, but just with my coat on.

Out of Power

I am in the university lab now, just printed out my qualitative research assignment, and will hand in later today, the submit process a bit complex than Surrey, some forms need to fill in with the paper too.
 
Still got one hour to go for my next lecture at 6pm, i don't quite know what i am doing now, especailly these two days, went to the career service this moring, talked to the adviser, got lots of suggestions, quite useful, but it is like sth force me to do this, not really willing to go in this kind of job searching process now, i feel i am like a dead person, no feelings on everything, studies, school, people around, even the cold weather, i want to sleep, for whole day long, or i can do sth bad, i need some release, maybe cuz i did not talk for so long time, i don't want to do any work today, but dealine is near, everything is "have to"... ... ... out of power... ... ...

The Bad News & the Good News

The first week finally finished, “Hurray” I am still alive! Then I will have 3 days off, hope I can finish reviewing what I studied this week, go through all the papers, and I need to have full preparations for the next week lectures.

 

Each day, when I met my classmates I would think “will I become the person like them?” Now, I am lost, I don’t know, I don’t know what the answer under my sub-conscious is. I Hope? Or not? Most of them had plenty working experiences before, 2 of them especially are successful business women. I always remembered one of them said to YuJen, “when you search jobs, when you had interviews, when you plan your careers, when… you have to make people to know you have ambitions, and actually you have to have as well…” To be a Christian, we cannot disjoint with the society, with the real world, but at the same time, can we still hold a pure heard? I did not mean “ambition” is a bad thing, but I don’t want, is it because I don’t have actually?

 

Today I was not in the mood, the lecturer talked about something related to the social and business ethics, I eventually found that I am interested, but I cannot add any comment on the case he presented, unfortunately nobody likes me! After school, I went to the nearest super-market ASDA, had some super shopping, bought a whole chicken, I forgot my allergy, anyway I ate it straight way after I back to my dormitory. Of course did not finish them all, shared with Rachel and Tina, the left for the next a few days.

I was so happy that I made some friends in the Chinese church; they are very warm welcomed and friendly to me, and called me several times to ask if I am all right, and to join the fellowship and the church with them. Mrs. Ma called me this evening, a lovely, fashionable, kind lady, she asked me to play the keyboard in Sunday church on 18 Dec, because their serving schedule of the next 3 months was determined, so when they set up the new one, will include me in the future. Also as the church and the fellowship, most people are from HK, not many people speak Mandarin really, but they want to start a new group, Mrs. Ma asked me if I would like to do more things with the other two leaders Mark and Huixian, certainly I am so excited and accepted her invitation, although I am still cannot recognise everyone in the church. Hey, is this called “on fire”? The first time I experienced. Seems I never had actuation on serving things, although I would like to do it in Guildford, and I leant a lot from it. She also asked if I can lead worship, I did not refuse, but told her I seldom did it before, then she said I can practice more and grow with the fellowship, isn’t so wonderful!!!

 

Yes la… bad news and good news, always happened, and happened together, keep our eyes on those good aspects of the bad things, and try our best to make more good things happen to us…

I am Back to my space!!!

   Dear God    

so far today, i've done all right. I haven't gossiped. I haven't lost my temper.

I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or overindulgent. I'm very thankful.

 But in a few minutes, God, I'm going to get out of bed...

and from then on, I'm, probably going to need a lot more help.

Amen

 
This is the kind of prayer i said to God last month, the first week i got home, but now, see... what did God do in my life!!!
 
   
  
   
 
  
 
 I'm really enjoyed my life, enjoyed the time to be with my family, with Greg, Linja, Naomi, and all others in the school, these made me feel great, and more confident for myself to move to Nottingham alone, Greg and Naomi already back to America, Linja will go back to Cambridge very soon, time flies, only left no more than a month time to live at home, i gonna miss all of them...
 
I always remembered what Shinying said to me after the retreat, i found one of the most important purposes to move to Nottingham, God wants me to grow up, to learn how to take care of new friends, or new people in the fellowship, now i realised, nothing is difficult, only to do with a sincere and thankful heart...

A Start = An Ending = A New Start

Just moved in Guildford Court for 3 days, suddenly my life become so rich, hehe... nearly party everyday, eat a lot, seafood @ 108 on Sat; Sunday lunch and dinner - Lillian's chicken rice; made registration form with Aaron, Aiping, and Ada; and party last night, dinner with Merlin, Ada, Aaron and Aiping...

 

 

 Everything needs a new start from now on... 6 days to baptism, 11 days to graduation - A start and an Ending, but also a new start, life like a cycle, but finally i have done all of these... i think i need more time to think about the last step which will be accomplished in a few weeks time, and the next step for my future. When I read the Nottingham Uni's webside, i asked myself, is it real i will go for study? Did I check the result by mistake? cus i havn't have the final certificate for my degree. and i havn't received the matriculate letter either, also is this the right choice for me? Although i really would like to go...

On saturday, when i helped lillian cooked the sunday lunch, she said some really blessing and encouraged words to be, i was really moved, even cannot belive i can left all of these friends behind, and start a new page in another place. sounds a bit blue, but i think i will be good, in a few days, weeks, or months time, anyway everything must have an ending then can be have a start, so just face it... 

 

 

我不会再轻易流泪,它让我看不清美丽的夜景,
  看不清青山碧水的可亲可爱,
  看不清迎面而来的笑脸,
  也看不清我们的爱究竟走了有多远。

No Home = Home Anywhere

Finally finish packing all my staff, "TIRED" !!! It is unbelievable, I have 6 big case + 2 smaller cases + 2 extra packs for clothes + 2 backpacks + 1 basket + 1 bucket + 1 guitar + 1 laptop + 1 TV and a small case of text books (have to sell them before move again)

 

 Hope tomorrow will be nice weather, move - move - move, I hate packing and move!!! I think probably i will go to Nottingham for Master degree, is this the right choice? I have to ask God again and again! How the life there? How the people, the church, the classmates will be? Can I abandon the life here in Guildford? Or just simply think I have to, MUST... ...

All my friends wish me a bright future, seems much happier than me, hehe... "Congratulations!!!" but why i feel upset? I am really really really happy with my results, achieved the level and be qualified to any university i applied, but... why? why? why? Can You my Lord tell me Y? I hope just simply leave me alone, let me to think, to pray, or to do nothing... 

 This JUNE should be the most significant month in my entire life, get the result and the offer to go to Nottingham University on 1 June, get baptism on 12, graduate on 17, join the first camp with my fellowship on 24 - 27, say goodbye to Crystal, then go back home on 28, arrive home on 29. Let it pass quickly!!! Want to be HOME, I got homesick, miss all of you...

Feel really tired, want to have lots of sleep, the happiest moment in a day is getting ready to go to bed, and the saddest moment is have to get up...

Thanx God, finally finished my print, have to go back, the last two weeks, should add more oil...

Happy Easter

Was one hour late for church this morning, cus did not notice the daylight saving time, just caught up the last worship song, but really had a wonderful day with Cheery, Shao Fei, Ingrid, Sarah, Paul and Ronal. We made Hun Tun in Cheery and Shao Fei's house, of course ate a lot, finally with ice cream for dessert. Then went to St. Saviour for the evening service. Unfortunately did not take any pictures for today, feel a bit regret, but really would like to have souvenir pictures for each detail of my normal life, maybe i should buy a bigger bag, and take the extra space for my dear baby camera...
