i know i'm not able to write anything neither now nor end of the day
So i'm just here to secure the page :p

If you're reading - Happy New Year!
If you're not reading - thank you for reading thus far.. haaa!

2010
I'm believing for greater thing is yet to come.

我要住鬼屋！

这一年里
我的中文进步神速

为什么？因为...
同事是中国人
老板是香港人
室友是台湾人
同学是马来西亚人

我的鬼话越来越像马来Rojak鬼话
我的啦啦啦啦啦更情不自禁嘴边挂

不行了
趁着大家都搬了
这给我自己很好的理由 · 搬



祷告项目第一条
希望快点找到我的理想鬼屋


我要我要我要我要我要住鬼屋

都已经是一世纪的尾巴了

看看上一篇已经是两个月前的事了
阿还是那句

“其实我很想把每天发生的趣事都写下来……”
阿然后就接那句

“我的作业忙到11月为也拜托”
你一定猜不到我还是那句

“……忙完作业就开始忙着玩了阿”


这两个月里
我参加了自己还没毕业的的毕业晚会
参加了别人的毕业典礼
吃了两次的自助餐
剪了生平第一次的 Camp News
和朋友去了纽西兰办 Youth Camp
纽西兰很美天气很好牛也很壮
也在那里发现原来神在一步一步的带领我在做一些我一直都想做的事情
小我一天的阿姨也嫁人
看了Avatar 3D 电影
和去年圣诞节一样我们又讲话了
去了一个很有圣诞 feel 的圣诞晚餐

就在昨天
那3个台湾人给我回台南去了
爸爸妈妈还有孩子
Baby Alex~~ 屁啊已经在想念你了~~~
Rain~~ 你快回来煮卤肉饭给我吃呀~~
Capp~~ 回来吧！我要找人吵架！！！

虽然很不舍得他们
但是我相信他们会给台湾带来很多很多的祝福
或者我们可以在奥克兰再见
又或者希望2010 的 5 月可以去台湾一趟
……看五月天！……和妹妹！
哈


再然后
昨晚其中一个Housemate因为一些事情也要搬了
昨晚决定昨晚就找到房子了
事情发生的太突然了
从决定到找到房子前后不到1个小时

24小时前
这间家还是热热闹闹的
有谁会想到在这世纪结束之前就会人去楼空呢
我不想以后下班回到家是空空的找不到人讲话

而我
也想搬了
我只是不想
自己一个人住在一间充满回忆的屋子

2010
期待明天会更好
目标要 set 好

091225
Christmas morning
i think this is the longest conversation we ever had.

'No pressure'
'Ya, right!'

一杯蜂蜜的时间

五年过后
在一样的国家不同的地方
看见了一座忠心守夜的灯塔
还有那靠南极靠得很近的星空

听着海浪声心情渐渐放空
很努力的寻找这那十字星
双子射手巨蟹处女母子熊
他们都在只是没跟我say Hi
因为我们从来没有说bye bye

话说回来……
为什么没有流星呢
是因为F4不红了吗


我用一杯蜂蜜的时间
写了一篇十月的烂文

客

那个客人
每逢星期六都会和老婆来我们餐厅捧场

我们叫他"One by One"
因为他点的菜都要一道一道上
哪怕他点了Sake sushi, Tuna sushi, Tamago sushi 个一块
他就是要一块一快的上
三个一起上的话他还会问你上那么快吃完了怎么办

阿我还理你怎么办呢
就再点呗！

阿伯， 你真的很怪
但是人还算蛮好的
就是很怪而已

谁会想到最后
我们会做了朋友咧

on the nineth of the month nine of the 09

Just reckon I have to write something in these special day of the 090909.
I'm 100% positive that I won't be here to witness the next 090909.

August has been busy for me.
Busying struggling whether I've make the right decision.
Busying trying to work something good for myself.
Busying worrying how's thing going to work.
Gah.. so busy!!
Anyways.. I'm all good now.
No more August, it's September now.

Have you ever thought are you a leader?
And who determine whether you are or not?

They say leader are born.
I wasn't agreed with that cos I believe a mature leader is trained.
But I'm not so sure right now...

Enough of crap...
September is going to be a great month for me (and you)!

A great thought from a friend of mine:
somewhere in the world someone musta been born today, w+e+d+n+e+s+d+a+y(9ltrs) 09/09/09, at 09:09:09 AM/PM.. weighing 9 lbs.. to a family of 9!!!!!!!!!

I am Samantha Ho

So,
we have our name changed - for one day (actually more).

The initiate objective is to annoy Yameteh, who now knowns as Desmond Kee for changing his name without our consent. Like, c'mon.. we are a TEAM!

Anyway, it turns out like a "competition" at the end - thanks for coming up with those funny names!






















Some are very supportive and starts 'engage' themselves into the movement.
Some without reading my "disclaimer" and asking why am i changing my name.
Some give comments like "I think Grace suit you better".
Some making fun of me saying Samantha sounds like a porn star (!!)
Some wants to annoy me just started to call me Samantha in public.





















Just find it interesting seeing people react differently.
If you are lucky, you may have a glimpse of reality.

But what i see is - The Power of Unity.
*Oh well, we applied in a wrong scenario in this case though... kinda ^^"

My final say will be:
"Please vote for Samantha Ho. Thank-you YOU for the support.]

se7en [Take 1]

7 is my favorite number.
Simply because i was born on the seventh day of month of seven.


:: Birthday ::
Housemates "surprise" me @ 12am.. Not really surprise because i heard them walked out the room, knocked on others housemates' door... so... i sort of know it's coming - too smart, i called myself.. hahaha!

They bought me a "Birthday Girl" balloon for me and made me bring it to the conference in the morning or else i have to clean the bathroom for 10 weeks. So i struggled and struggled, I took it with me to the conference.

Thanks to the balloon, the crowd sing me birthday song to embarrass me.
Thanks to the balloon, the crew sing me birthday song to embarrass me again.
It's just my-thing, i really feel embarrassed whenever people sing me birthday song.


:: Hillsong Conference ::
God is moving in the conference.
I've been rostered on graphics througout the conference in Main Arena.
I'm so blessed that not only i get to watch/during main services in the OB truck, i also get to work with Chris Tomlin, the Passion team + Israel Houghton, the Lakewood team. [ps.Thank God for Graphic... hahaha!]
I'm so blessed to be able to serve with all these mighty people of God.

Craig Groeschel shared a very inspiring story..

A little bird was flying south for the winter.. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.
While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.
As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.
The dung was actually thawing him out!
He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.
Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.

Morals of the story:
(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your
friend.

(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep
your mouth shut!

5 years ago // Tonight

5 years ago,
there was an art piece Rock-Crushed-Ferrari placed right in front the Opera house.
Tonight,
They are no longer there tonight.
















5 years ago,
there was moonlight reflection on the water.
Tonight,
There's moon, but the water is dull.







5 years ago,
there was two of us.
Tonight,
I'm alone.




However,
God replaced the moonlight reflection with 20 minutes fireworks.

I'm not alone [selah]

I have the most amazing date with God.


...in the 5th anniversary with Mr.J...

这上半年

这上半年
我拍了属于自己的短片
不够时间剪就拿去参赛了
结果是明年再努力
这下半年我要把没完成的给剪好

这上半年
我差不多每个星期的事奉都是Graphic
新歌不用看歌词我都会唱了
我是领唱之一哦他们说 -- 因为没有我，领唱就不会唱了（不记得歌词啊）
这下半年我要再练好我的钢琴

这上半年
我看了一场五月的演唱会
但是还有一场我很想很想看的却再也没机会看了
因为在265那天他离开了
这下半年我要买他一个演唱会专辑在家好好回味回味

这上半年
我没去过戏院看电影
应该说到了澳洲之后都没踏进入过戏院一步
这下半年一定一定要去看一场

这上半年
我上了蓝山下海玩浪
但是我最想去的地方其实是家
这下半年我要回家一趟

////////////////////////////////////////


后记：
这上半年的最后一天
我剪了头发
原来有些人真的不适合剪留海的
我又‘年轻’了
我知错了


















噢
这下半年我还要买画架

，

听。

-------------------------------------------------------------

民数记
他们都在埋怨
说神把他们带到旷野分明要整死他们的
他们说还是回去埃及好了
神生气了
火柱来烧 地来吞噬
他们害怕了 一天而已
明天继续埋怨
“我们要回去埃及！”

他们等不到
去不到

，


有些事情是感觉很想 却害怕面对的

没。就这样。

看了一场不在戏院里看的电影。
其实来了这里那么久了都还没进过戏院。
很贵呐　－　１６澳币也。　
爆米花和汽水另计。　

在马来西亚
进电影院对我来说是一种享受。
一手拿着爆米花，一手拿着可口可乐。
那感觉很爽有没有。
只是很多时候没等到电影还开场我就把爆米花吃了一大半。

不行了！　
我回到马来西亚第一件事：
往戏院。



衝！　

Till then, May // 拉住五月的尾巴

Had a 2 weeks break @ May
Well... literally speaking, I had 3 weeks!

1. Visitor from Malaysia
A friend from Malaysia came to visit.
To many place we went... well, not like many-many.
But still... we managed to go to the must-go places in Sydney.
Blue mountain was the killer! I mean, really, it kills me - with the killing bush walking.
It wasn't true to called it a bush walking. They sound name it bush running.
Seriously, the tour guide is just like running.. we have no time to look around but to look down to the wet-slippery-muddy path.
And well, the scenery was rewarding. The mountain is foggy and view is just - great! (in case you wondering, I just being sarcastic here)


The Three Sister wasn't really friendly.
They have the steepest cliff in the world - 52 degree.
"It is in the Guinness Record!" says the tour guide, "You have to do it!"
So off we go, having him waving his hand to us, we walk down the killer stairs without him.
I can feel my knee wobbling while I'm walking.


....anyway! We have had a good time.
Maybe the only thing she may regrets is... she never get to see Kangaroo or Koala during this trip to Australia. What. A. Shame! haha


2. Mayday Concert
So, I consider myself lucky.
Was thinking I'm not going to have chance to see their concert in Australia.
They never had a concert held in Australia and this was the first time, ever.


How I wish Ah Lian + LLP + Kaizz were here to watch the concert with me.
Then WE can go crazy all the way.
Mr. Leong doesn't like them. So what I get was having him yawning while they singing "Jump".
Oh well, They were something that have spice up my life a little while I'm here.

The tix wasn't really expensive.. it's only AUD61.90..
Besides I was sitting at the laaaaaaaaaast row [haha]
But still the seat wasn't bad at all.

就这样

Art from the heART

For very first time, Hillsong has a art festival for Easter.

27 short film has been placed in. I'm one of the 27 :)
5 finalist has been selected. I'm not been selected.
They also selected some non-finalist to put on screen. I feel nervous if they would put mine on. The imperfect cuts. The un-stereo audio. OMG! :P
Thankfully they only show 5 of those.
Peeps, I'm not sad for not being selected. Because I wasn't please with my masterpiece anyway. Too rush in production and the post production because of conferences coming up. Too many talented film makers! It's a very good experience seriously. At least I DID something and approached one step closer to my dream. Maybe I will put on youtube. Who knows. haha!

Many thanks to my wonderful crew and cast - who has made this short film happened.
Special thanks to Kristin, who sat at Michel's with me for weeks to brainstorm the ideas and script. It's such a pleasure to work with you. You're creativity blown me away!

I believe God brought me here in perfect timing for such a time like this. This is the year where the arts has blossom in this church. Speaking not only films, but many other art works such as fine arts, paintings, photography and more.

Here you can watch/vote for the finalist - have a look. Enjoy and be amazed :)
Here's the Arts Gallery - tons of breathtaking art works & photography.


>>>>> Ah.. now I feel like I should have put some photography up too.. haha <<<<<

For sure, I'll make another one for next year's festival! Meanwhile --- I'll HAVE to do second year :D *finger crossed*

PS: How amazing is God listen to our prayer even the silliest-random-est thought that crossed my mind :) From "dinner" to "the wonder of your love" to "thank you" "thank you"... no idea what am I talking about? No worries, it's only for my "self-enjoyment"... hahahaha!!!

Above All

Two most precious person in my life died "today" this year.

One was 2000 yrs ago // Good Friday

Another was 18 yrs ago // 10 April

Both are now in heaven :)

Hillsong Sing Song {lalalalala}

Well, I was ALWAYS wanted to write all this stuff down. But yet... erm... you know... when u actually facing the computer - you start forget things. The actual purpose of why are you sitting in front of the computer is gone - just like that. And soon you realise you were clicking on some other stuff, like, Twitter (haaaa)! Ok, now I mention it - I got addicted to this new (well, not quite) webbie where to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question - What are you doing. It's kinda IN thing to do in Hillsong church - almost everyone (well, the BIG guns are) has it. For example, you are able to stalk in Ps.Brian & Bobbie (...) hahaha!

>>>>> The Canggih OB truck!! So many LED!!! <<<<<




So, Colour Conference and album recording are done. Great nights, great message, great songs. There's some songs that I personally LOVE!! If you got your CD/DVD (erm... maybe on July?), those are the song I would recommend ---





Hillsong Album
> Yahweh by Rueben Morgan
> The Wonder of Your Love by Marty Sampson
> Glow by Joel Houston
> It's Your love by Mia


United Album
> No reason to hide by Joel Houston
> Tear down the walls by Joel Houston
> You hold me now by Matt Crocker




God is good. Still can't believe I'm doing what I'm doing now. Can't wait for the album to release.



Breaking news: It's Autumn now! I got myself 2 pairs of boots and 2 pairs of skinny jeans - to store up for the cold weather. A good reason to spend money ek! ehehehe! Well, I think that is it for the Autumn. Oh, maybe a few jacket or jumper and scaft will be good. Ahhh... I pray that my mum will never found this page. Amen. Yikes!

Okie peeps, if got time, sign up for Twitter too - then we can get in touch more often (in other word it make me easier to stalk you up! haha)

满满的三月结束了

就这样，完了。
好像没什么感觉的。
可能是因为在幕后的关系吧。

以前拿着他们的专辑都在想，
有一天，这专辑的后面也会有我的名字出现。

再看看今天自己，
都已经在那里了。

那种感觉很... 什么的。
有没有。

阿新专辑嘛 ----

舞台设计很棒。
新歌很好听。
敬请期待。

就这样。
哈哈。

。。。。。。


现在的我坐在情人港的星巴克。
本来带笔电来是想在等Colour Coference开始前做一些剪接的，
阿哪里知道没有插座。

无语。

Colour Conference II
为什么是II呢？
因为上星期是I。
从上星期五到这个星期三都满满的。
Conference I - Album Recording - Conference II

。。。。。。

阿想不到要写什么了。
脑子动不了。

还是一样//

累了/

做对了吗/

继续吗/

还是一个人了//

Surprise Valetine

He truly shocked me.
I never expect he will appear at my work place with presents.
Well, I kinda thought of that, but it was 50-50 chance that either he going to surprise me,
OR
I'll let myself down for having expectation on that.

It was raining and was about 18°C.
He walked for 3omins from bus stop to drop me the presents,
and walk for another 30mins to get back to the bus stop.

Well, I was kinda laughed by my colleagues.
But I know they were just jealous..
HAHAHA :P

Well... I don't know how to express my feeling into words.

So.. I guess... "I love you too" is what I want to say :)




Happy Valentine's Day

元宵节要吃记得吃元宵哦

什么意思？
阿其实我也不知道。
一个中国人跟我讲的。

还有30分钟不到就过完年了。
和甘甘吃皮萨的过了一个没有捞生没有月亮的元宵节。

哈快。

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

没什么想说的，
只觉得跟有些人讲话单单打打的真的好累。
就一直硬硬要赢的那种人。

好累。

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

天气转凉了。
由上星期平均40多度的掉到20多度，
从上星期一至六都艳阳高照的变到这星期一至六都下雨。

真好。


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

租了7片迪斯尼卡通。
有新的，有旧的。
其实很想看阿拉丁但是找没有。

再找。


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

回来吧。























Pure heart。

So she says

So she told me she's like a Sunday-girlfriend.
He can disappear and leave her with no news for the whole week, but turn out on every Sunday as if nothing was wrong.
His don't even notice she was angry because she was worried.
They argued why is he behave like this.
He refused what she is confronting.
She tired hearing the excuse he is giving.
She wanted to quit this - mind consuming game.





















Then, she heard,

"Is He your Sunday-God?"







Stoned.

Spring [春]

Time : 0308
Venue: Maze Backpacker
Status: Alone.


Nothing much happening, really.

Went for reunion dinner with the boss and colleagues. It was good. Really appreciate that at least he put up something for us and make us feel home.

Head to city after the dinner to meet Joseph. He has reunion dinner with his housemates and he got his very first angpao (!!). Aus10. I have none, yet.

Nothing much. Walk around the city. There's lion dance and fire crackers on the stress. I'm completely pumped. Finally there's something feel like CNY here.

Walked to China Town. Quiet. For sure, it's 130 in the morning. Called home. Talked to everyone. Miss them so much. Really want to go back for CNY next year.

Got a place to stay over. AUD65 a night. Single room. Don't feel like sharing with others in backpacker. Just don't feel safe since I've bring the laptop with me. Just thought it's cheaper to call home by using Skype. End up calling by mobile anyways.

Time to sleep. New year. New hope. Officially one year older. How about that.

Cheers.

我随便写的

说起来我真的超久没住过一顿正式的住家饭吼
我还以为放假了会有多些时间出来在家住住什么的
那里知道，都一直在吃餐厅拿回来的剩饭剩菜
嗯，我现在嘛，在吃寿司。
边吃边写 - 一个字 - 爽！

其实这家餐厅说是一家日本餐厅
但是里面是一个日本人都没有
韩国厨师倒是有一个，就负责做寿司的
热食的全部都是中国人
老板是香港人

有些顾客有的没的就跟你来一句日文
有时 还没回过神来还以为他跟我说哪国的话了
有些甚至会问一些看是很有学问但是让你留下3条黑线的问题
最无哩头的就非印度人莫属了
“阿请问你们这里有咖喱炒饭吗？”
哇勒~ 要吃咖喱去吃印度餐呗

说到吃的，不能不说这个故事了
事情发生在几个月前，话说我那天很想很想吃Nasi Lemak
我看准了那里有一间叫Enak的摊位想说啊这次有好吃的了
Enak耶！多么马来的一间店名阿，有没有
就在我要点餐的时候 - 真相让我崩溃了
我问那服务员说，阿你们的Nasi Lemak有些什么的
他说有炸鸡阿，青瓜阿，炒花生阿，蛋阿，Sambal阿.....
大家一定在想“哇~sambal都叫得出来，一定很正统的了”
错了错了错了！！！！！！！
他竟然在后面给我加了一句“STEAM RICE”
你没听错 --- 是 STEAM RICE！！！
妈啊哥啊姐啊~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
你到底知不知道Nasi Lemak 是什么意思阿你？！
顾名思义就是用Lemak煮的Nasi啊！！
你还给我Enak个屁吼！
用Steam Rice 你给我叫炸鸡辣椒饭就好啦
还给我Nasi Lemak咧你
生气啊！
结果还是跑去吃快餐去了
我干吗花那么多钱吃你那个没有椰浆的椰浆饭啊~ 不爽啊！

接下来我要说的这个跟吃的没关系
……阿也有少少啦……她家里开餐馆的（哈哈）
就和这个小学同班同学在MSN聊起说另外一个同学回家当CEO去了
后来看她的博她也提到说要回去当个幸福的CEO
其实有时候在外面闯累了
我也有想过如果回去明昌当CEO也不错的吼
再不然回去种菜也好的……听说割胶也很好赚的……
谁说简简单单平平凡凡就不快乐不伟大呢

只是有些路一旦走上了就不能回头了
只能硬着头皮死死给他走下去

最后一块寿司了

Blessed 09

It has been - officially - 6 months, I'm here in this kangaroo land.

2008 is a year filled with God's favor and blessing.
So many dreams has come to pass.
I'm overwhelm when come to counting God's blessing upon me throughout the year.

One of my dreams on is to watch the bridge fireworks
I still remember I blaming Leong Kam Kam on the last day of 2007 that WHEN will I have the chance.........

It's MASSIVE!! The most amazing fireworks I ever seen, so far.
Very impressive.

I haven't really set my goals for 2009.
But the very first I can think of now is -

To find confident in things that I think should and right to do.
Especially when come to decision making and speak up for opinions.
There has been ages I felt uncomfortable when there's a need a speak up and end up gulp the words all back in. Maybe I should first feel I AM confident, after all :)

Well, will sit down and really think what's the goals I'm want to achieve on 2009 and post it up - as a reminder for myself.
