Fasting and Prayer

I tried doing partial fast (daniel fast and skipping a meal) and from then I've learnt...

1) To be determined
When ppl is eating. .i don't eat
When ppl OFFER me to eat.. i decline
When my stomach is growling.. i ignore
When i feel like eating.. i control

2) Praying
In times of suffering (for this case, it's hungry), we tend to ask GOD more for help; to be dependent to God

other benefits which is not godly ...
1) Detoxifaction - good for the body
2) Losing weight - yes. a bit but gained back after normal diet
3) Change of eating patterns/diet - I tend to enjoy simplest food, rather than eating expensive/complicated food

And I'm still learning, by focusing and listening to God, would I see the answers of my prayers?

God may not always answer us, but in His time - and His idea of time is not the same as ours – He always does.

“And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive” (Matt 21:22).

I like the ice breaker we had in CG last nite. It's something we played before but the game master explained the game well.

Game: Group 1 write any questions and Group 2 write any answers.

Group 1 read their questions and Group 2 read their answers.

Results: The questions/answers don't really match.

Lessson:
Ask God your questions for he knows the best, and sometimes, the answers dont' seem to match

An Encounter with Gelatissimo

It was an eventful Saturday afternoon. I had an 'appointment' with Gelatissimo , Gurney Plaza, Penang. I have always wished to try gelatos there (since Lecka Lecka has gone for good) and it's the ONLY store serving gelatos in Penang (I think). There you go.. I'm going to blog on my 'encounter' with Gelatissimo. First and foremost, consumers need to be educated the difference between ice-cream (Haagen dazs, Baskin Robbins, Walls etc) and Gelatos. Gelatos is italian frozen ice dessert and the method of making it is different from ice cream . Basically, gelatos has less cream than ice cream and it has higher density (the molecules are nearer as compared with ice cream). Most importantly, I think the fat content is less as it has more original food as compared with ice cream (usually with articificial coloring and flavours). The friendly staff posing for camera. The girl in spectacles would always asked me if I would like to try their flavours. To be honest, I trie...

Vacation nightmare

I was dreaming as if I was in Sentosa. The beach was beautiful and I tried capturing the scenery with my digicam. Sunset was colorful. We were in the closed up area and a few of my friends and I began to pose while getting the staff to take pics for us. We posed quite long for them. Shots don't seem to be good. The scene suddenly changed into a bedroom scene with my sis. There was a great disaster. The enemies had come. With just one blow from his mouth, the bridge was changed into wooden bridge (like Terabithia). They came to destroy by placing the bottle of ketchup (what the??!?) at every spot. We tried to strategize. OOps......... and the dream just died.

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.
