The action sequences are outta this world, superbly pieced. And the twist is kinda unexpected. Still, feel the film should have been a bit longer. Guess my expectation were raised too high by the incredible trailer. I mean, curving a bullet's projectile, how cool is that??!!
Still, can watch it la.

on a wonderful prayer, and a wonderful answer from God
Was reading from "Confessions of a Sinner" this morning on my bus-ride, can came across this lovely prayer.
I call upon you, O God, my Mercy, who made me and did not forget me when I forgot you. I call you to come into my soul, for by inspiring it to long for you you prepare it to receive you. Now, as I call upon you, do not desert me, for you came to my aid even before I called upon you. In all sort of ways, over and over again, when I was far from you, you coaxed me to listen to your voice, to turn my back on you no more, and to call upon you for aid when, all the time, you were calling to me yourself. You blotted out all my evil deeds, in order not to repay me with the punishment I deserved for the work of my hands, which had led me away from you; and even before I did them, you took into account all the good deeds by which I should deserve well of you, in order to recompense yourself for the work of your hands which made me. For before I was, you were: I was nothing, that you should give me being. Yet now I am; and this is because out of your goodness you provided for all that you have made me and all from which you have made me. You have no need of me, nor am I a creature good i such a way as to be helpful to you, my Lord and my God. It is not as though you could grow tired by working and I could serve you by preventing your fatigue, nor could your power be any the less if my service were lacking. I cannot serve you as a peasant tills the land, for your works bear fruit even if I fail to serve you with my husbandry. I can only serve you and worship you so that good may come to me from you, and but for you no good could come to me, for I should not even exist to receive it.
I was just thinking what a wonderful prayer that was penned down. Then I imagined how God would have answer this, and it was even more stupendous~

on cleaning stains inside water kettles...
hmmm, last time I didn't know why the insides inside water kettles get dirty. I always thought they cannot be cleaned, till my friend convinced me otherwise.
Today, our big 2-litre water boiler/kettle in office broke down. So we had to use a replacement water kettle instead. When I looked inside the kettle, i was aghast at the blackness of the surface*. So took the kettle to the sink area and spend a good 15 minutes scrubbing the insides...
Before
After
Hmm, I went to my *great answer to everything* and Wiki for a reason for this build-up. Apparently it's due to mineral deposits. Surprisingly, I found it under the entry of vinegar
"White vinegar is often used as a natural household cleaning agent. With most such purposes dilution with water is recommended for safety, reduced risk of damaging certain surfaces, and budgetary reasons. It is especially useful for cleaning mineral deposits on glass, inside a coffee maker, or other smooth surfaces. Vinegar is an excellent solvent for cleaning epoxy resin and epoxy hardener. It will even clean epoxy that is starting to harden. Care should be taken not to allow contact with the eyes (if such contact occurs, the eyes should be flushed immediately and persistently with warm water) or skin (the affected skin area should be washed thoroughly after use)."
- Under cleaning uses of Vinegar
Hmm, need to get my hands on some white vinegar soon...
-----------------------------------------------------------
* Surprisingly, before I knew it can be cleaned off, i was not affected by it. After I found out it can be washed off, I'm pretty put off by the presence of the blackened surface.
Two Morals from this:
1. An analogy to knowledge sin and salvation? :p
2. Knowledge is dangerous to lazy people - what you don't know, won't make you work... Ergo, if you don't want to do, don't learn... bwahahahah!

CEFC Woodlands shots (22 Jun '08)
"Woo hoo!" Yesterday when the pictures were shared in church, that's what I exclaimed in service. :p After 3 years, finally the building is nearing its completion. Got so excited that I cycled down and got some shots of it on my "lao-pok" handphone camera.
Can't wait to see the inside!~ :D

on gratification of the eye...
Book X, 35
I must now speak of a different kind of temptation, more dangerous than these because it is more complicated. For in addition to our bodily appetites, which makes us along to gratify all our senses and our pleasures and lead to our ruin if we stay away from you by becoming their slaves, the mind is also subject to a certain propensity to use the sense of the body, not for self-indulgence of a physical kind, but for the satisfaction of its own inquisitiveness. This futile curiosity masquerades under the name of science and learning, and since it derives from our thirst for knowledge and sight is the principal sense by which knowledge is acquired, in the Scriptures it is called gratification of the eye. For although, correctly speaking, to see is the proper function of the eyes, we use the word of the other senses too, when we employ them to acquire knowledge. We do not say 'Hear how it glows', 'Smell how bright it is', 'Taste how it it shines', or "'Feel how it glitters', because these are all things which we say that we see. Yet we not only say 'See how it shines' when we are speaking of something which only the eye can perceive, but we also say 'See how loud it is', 'See how it smells', 'See how it taste', and 'See how hard it is'. So, as I said, sense-experience in general is called the lust of the eyes because, although the function of sight belongs primarily to the eyes, we apply it to the other organs of sense as well, by analogy, when they are used to discover any item of knowledge.
We can easily distinguish between the motives of pleasure and curiosity. When the senses demand pleasure, they look for objects of visual beauty, harmonious sounds, fragrant perfumes, and things that are pleasant to the taste or soft to the touch. But when their motive is curiosity, they may look for just the reverse of these things, simply to put it to the proof, not for the sake of an unpleasant experience, but from a relish for investigation and discovery. What pleasure can there be in the sight of a mangled corpse, which can only horrify? Yet people will flock to see one lying on the ground, simply for the sensation of sorrow and horror that it gives them. They are even afraid that it may bring them nightmares, as though it were something that they had been forced to look at while they were awake or something to which they had been attracted by rumours of its beauty. The same is true of other senses, although it would be tedious to give further examples. It is to satisfy this unhealthy curiosity that freaks and prodigies are put on show in the theatre, and for the same reason men are led to investigate the secrets of nature, which are irrelevant to our lives, although such knowledge is of no value to them and they wish to gain it merely for the sake of knowing. It is curiosity, too, which causes men to turn to sorcery in the effort to obtain knowledge for the same perverted purpose. And it even invades our religion, for we put God to the test when we demand signs and wonders from him, not in the hope of salvation, but simply for the love of the experience.
[...]
My life is full of such faults, and my only hope is in your boundless mercy. For when our hearts become repositories piled high with such worthless stock as this, it is the cause of interruption and distraction from our prayers. And although, in your presence, the voices of our hearts are raised to your ear, all kinds of trivial thoughts break in and cut us off from the great act of prayer.

on wet pants...
Got this touching story in my work e-mail~
WET PANTS
Come with me to a third grade classroom.....
There is a nine-year-old kid sitting at his desk and all of a sudden, there is a puddle between his feet and the front of his pants are wet. He thinks his heart is going to stop because he cannot possibly imagine how this has happened. It's never happened before, and he knows that when the boys find out he will never hear the end of it. When the girls find out, they'll never speak to him again as long as he lives.
The boy believes his heart is going to stop; he puts his head down and prays this prayer, 'Dear God, this is an emergency! I need help now! Five minutes from now I'm dead meat.'
He looks up from his prayer and here comes the teacher with a look in her eyes that says he has been discovered.
As the teacher is walking toward him, a classmate named Susie is carrying a goldfish bowl that is filled with water. Susie trips in front of the teacher and inexplicably dumps the bowl of water in the boy's lap.
The boy pretends to be angry, but all the while is saying to himself, 'Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord!'
Now all of a sudden, instead of being the object of ridicule, the boy is the object of sympathy. The teacher rushes him downstairs and gives him gym shorts to put on while his pants dry out. All the other children are on their hands and knees cleaning up around his desk. The sympathy is wonderful. But as life would have it, the ridicule that should have been his has been transferred to someone else - Susie.
She tries to help, but they tell her to get out. You've done enough, you klutz!'
Finally, at the end of the day, as they are waiting for the bus, the boy walks over to Susie and whispers, 'You did that on purpose, didn't you?' Susie whispers back, 'I wet my pants once too.'
May God help us see the opportunities that are always around us to do good...
Remember.....Just going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in your garage makes you a car.
Each and everyone one of us is going through tough times right now, but God is getting ready to bless you in a way that only He can. Keep the faith.
Prayer is powerful, and prayer is one of the best gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of rewards Let's continue to pray for one another.
“Father, I ask You to bless my friends, relatives and those that I care deeply for, who are reading this right now. Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through Your grace. Where there is need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings and their comings. Amen.”

on God providing even before I asked~
During the church camp, there was a call to give for the remaining payments towards the completion of our second church building. This month I really went overboard in my expenses, and didn't really have much left in my savings account. But in faith I accepted the amount the Lord gave to me and said to myself, "He'll bring the money to me somehow".Then just the other day on Saturday, as I was resting at home, I suddenly thought of the cup of loose change I keep in my room for buying newspaper and snacks. Decided to empty it out and count how much moolah I have. Lo and Behold, it was a bit more than the amount that God has placed upon my heart~
All i can say ah, ish "Thank You, God! Gum xia, Zhu & Oh lor Zhu! “感谢主！称赞主！“

on Butt Prints in the Sand
Got this in my work e-mail.
Butt Print in the Sand:
One night, I had a wondrous dream;
One set of footprints there was seen.
The footprints of my precious Lord,
But mine were not along the shore.
But then some stranger prints appeared,
And I asked the Lord, "What have we here?"
"Those prints are large and round and neat,
But, Lord, they are too big for feet."
"My child," He said in somber tones.
"For miles I carried you alone.
I challenged you to walk in faith,
But you refused and made me wait.
You disobeyed, you would not grow,
The walk-of-faith you would not know.
So I got tired and fed up,
And there I dropped you on your butt,
Because in life, there comes a time,
When one must fight, and one must climb,
When one must rise and take a stand,
Or leave their butt prints in the sand."

ROFL
on my sunday in pictures...
Had to serve as communion-server at the 10am 2nd service in church, but wanted to go to the 3rd service, so as to make space for all the guests. So bail out of the main sanctuary, and took a slow stroll to Bukit Panjang Plaza for brunch. Walked around the basement level for a while, it was still pretty early (around 10.50s) so there wasn't much people. And the freshly baked pastry at the confectionery stores smells so nice! Pleasantly surprised to find a Subway joint right at the end of the level. Bought a Tuna Sandwich, as I got a bit tired of Cold cut Trio and Subway Club. Was worried for a second that I can't bring my sandwich into Starbucks (since it was 'outside' food) , but my worries were unfounded. Enjoyed my grande cafe americano while they played smooth jazz in the background...
Oh, took a close up of the logo. Heard they are planning to change the Starbucks logo. Wonder if I should go get a mug before it does happen...
Saw this mother-and-child monkey duo as I was leaving from church later in the afternoon. Don't even know how they managed to 'migrate' from the Bukit Timah nature reserve...
on the whole, a short but restful Sabbath. Thank you, Abba!~
