当你孤单你会想起谁
歌手:张栋梁
Nice song, one of those song i will sing if i am go to Karoke. If not always sing 陈百强, 阿伦, 刘文正,people say you si bei old fashion....wahaha.
你的心情总在飞
什么事都要去追
想抓住一点安慰
你总是喜欢在人群中徘徊
你最害怕孤单的滋味
你的心那么脆,一碰就会碎
经不起一点风吹
你的身边总是要许多人陪
你最害怕每天的天黑
但是天总会黑,人总要离别
谁也不能永远陪谁
而孤单的滋味,谁都要面对
不只是你我会感觉到疲惫
当你孤单你会想起谁
你想不想找个人来陪
你的快乐伤悲 只有我能体会
让我再陪你走一回

烧纸钱
今日,很多人喜欢把纸钱的东西烧给死者。到底烧钱是怎样来的呢?
兩棲女性 :燒衣故事
我们知道,纸是后汉蔡伦发明的。当时他大量制造纸,以致生产过剩,后来他和他的妻子商量,他装病,向朝庭称病疗养,他的妻子把纸剪成长方形,计有几百扎,纸上涂以银箔。她一面宣告蔡伦病重,同时做了一个无底棺材。不久,他宣告蔡伦死了,她便到棺前不断烧纸。众人问她为什么要在棺前不断烧纸。她假称:「蔡伦不醒人事,曾几次苏醒,说:“他到了人地生疏之地,遇见了个素不相认识的人,送他一笔旅费,叫他返回人间,他看见所赠的纸币是阴间的纸币。蔡伦预先嘱咐她,不要把他埋葬,只要不断烧纸六天,他就会复活了。”他说完,气就断了。」于是他的妻子一直在棺前烧纸六天,第七天蔡伦「复活」了。他的邻居非常惊奇,问他到底是怎么一回事,蔡伦便称:他曾被凶汉带走,经一官厅,被送入牢狱。他把一些旅费送给狱卒。狱卒带他见阎王,途中遇见阴官,立即送给他一些纸钱,所以很顺利地到了阎王面前。阎王一查生死簿,说他善事多,可以延长寿命,所以他能复活了。
这件事一传开以后,蔡伦的纸就畅销了。可惜今日迷信鬼神的人不明真相,以为烧纸钱给死人,死人在阴间就有钱用。后来有人烧纸衣给死人穿,烧纸轿车给死人坐。纸是世上的东西,经火烧后,化为灰烬,仍存于地球上,不会跑到地球内里。纸轿、纸车、纸衣,他们谁也不要,何况是死了的人,他们怎能用这些东西呢?信耶稣的人,死后到天家享福,不用地上的物质;不信的人,死后到阴间受苦,什么都不能享用。纸的东西不能经水,也不能经火,久放便变黄或发霉,谁也不要,鬼神也不用纸的东西。所以烧纸确是浪费无益,只有胡涂人才做这样的事。

Impossible Mission
Pick Aloysius and Carlin almost everyday, except Friday, from School.
One day, Aloysius asked "Dad, what do u call a flatted batman and Robin?".
"Err.... can't think. i am drving( good excuse). what?"
"Flatman and ribbon"....wahaha... ( u guess correctly?)
Really funny, sometimes i wonder where did he get all this jokes from.
This remind me of Tom Cruise, who can "Flew" from an exploding helicopter,
climb mountain with bare hands and leapt from the top of a skyscraper.....
but couldn't open the door of a car to let his wife out. LOL
Maybe he needed his stuntman to open that door.

****************************************************
RESULTS....
TYPE A
Shy, a bit of an introvert. You are more stubborn and like to stay alone quietly at home. To you, talking to strangers is a hard thing so you have not much friends. But you will still have some soulmates. You need to treasure people who care and love you. You are more interested in your own matters, you will try your very best to achieve your target. But you can't do everything alone, and just depend on yourself, learn to open up and accept other opinions. Try to get along with different people.
TYPE B
You are a more active person, drawing a clear line between happiness and unhappiness. You are more quick-tempered. If you encounter things you like, you will do it without second thought. But once you encounter things that you hate, you will wish to get out of it as soon as possible. As you are a person of your own views, the friends you tend to have will be of the same pattern. But once good friends, you will understand them a lot and go all the way to help then. Friends are very dependent on you. As you are too emotional, you may make a storm out of a teacup with your friends. You must learn to do things in order and not give up easily. You can try making friends with those you don't think you can get along with, don't stick with the same category. This will make you more popular and charming.
TYPE C
Gentle like a lamb. You have a high level of adaptance power, easy to get along with people. Very popular in social life but seems that no one will talk bad about you. You hate to have conflicts with people so you always try to adapt to everyone. You treat every person differently. To look at the bright side, you adapt easily. But to look at the dark side, you lack of character, although you are one big nice guy but you lack of charm. On the surface, you have a lot of friends but once you have troubles, you lack of soulmates to help you around. You must try to express yourself more and be more decisive. In this way, you can understand yourself more.
TYPE D
You are stubborn, like to go in circles and don't get to the point. Once you decide on something, no one can change your mind. You are a good leader in a group so you win a lot of trust from your friends. But as you are too persistent on your own thinking, you neglect other people's suggestions therefore you can easily make enemies. Although it is good to maintain your own character but it doesn't mean you totally ignore other people's thoughts and feelings. You will let people think you are hard to handle and you will lose friends gradually and may end up alone. You need to learn to accept other people's opinion. This will make your social circle bigger and you will understand yourself better.

Smart egg
It settled in my spirit too when Pastor mentioned that egg is good. I love to eat half boiled egg since I was young. I think Don su su like it too.
If u like but duno know how to prepare one ‘swee swee’ one, u can check out this smart egg.
The smart egg that shows you when it's boiled to perfection.
A self-timing egg imbued with the powers of heat-sensitive invisible ink that turns black the minute that it is ready. All you need to do is decide whether you prefer your eggs soft, medium or hard-boiled, and buy accordingly.

24/7 work
ell, I am back to work after taking a day leave and today is the first day of TS audit. I got to make sure everything is in proper order; backup, printing, can read and sent mails and even server room’s temp control …. Yes!. no joke.
This 24/7 work ethic is getting common nows-a-day. My boss called me yesterday to iron out some last mins procedures. Bosses has the ability to contact you anytime they want, thanks…or no thanks to technology.
For me as an IT support, weekend and after office hours are the only time I can upgrade servers, rewire cable etc. So got no choice. But really don’t like ppl to call you when you are on leave or even outside Singapore( for holiday ) . That’s why I always switch off my phone whenever I am oversea....LOL.
One funny things I observed is that the Network/systems something have problem when you are not around in the office. Maybe becos we are light and a blessing to the company. When we are not around, the blessing and favour is ‘gone’.

a cup of kopi
Thank God this have not happen to me before .... Enjoy your coffee.
Caller: "Hello, is this Tech Support?"
Tech Rep: "Yes, it is. How may I help you?"
Caller: "The cup holder on my PC is broken and I am within my warranty period.
How do I go about getting that fixed?"
Tech Rep: "I'm sorry, but did you say a cup holder?"
Caller: "Yes, it's attached to the front of my computer."
Tech Rep: "Please excuse me if I seem a bit stumped, it's because I am.
Did you receive this as part of a promotional, at a trade show?
How did you get this cup holder? Does it have any trademark on it?"
Caller: "It came with my computer, I don't know anything about a promotional.
It just has '4X' on it."
At this point the Tech Rep had to mute the caller, because he couldn't stand it.
The caller had been using the load drawer of the CD-ROM drive as a cup holder,
and snapped it off the drive.

My Mouse ...
ne of the most challenging task as an IT Support ..... hmm must be Regional phone support. Becos you really don’t know what is happening at the other end.
You say something and they might take a while to understand and do it. That’s way I use simple English … LOL. Even simple English to a Japanese or Koreans' colleagues is oso difficult.
IT Support! look what the virus did to my mouse
What do u want to do
Inspired by our friends Edmund and Don, who had found their dreams.
Is there something you've always wanted to do/try, but know you'll probably never get the chance? This is my lists ......
(1) Owner of a computer shop/internet cafe
Fxing up and assemble a PC is not a problem to me. I love to play around with hardwares/software. Or Maybe co-own a cozy cafe......where computer game lovers can play game; blogger can chitchat/msn/blog and have a nice kopi (with muffins).
( 2 ) Comedian actor
I know this sounds crazy but If I am handsome or thick skin enough I will have tried it out nong nong ago.
(3) Gospel singer
Yes , if call by God. I will mostly sing Cantonese and Chinese songs. Like those songs presented in mandarin services. Something like林义忠 style and then later give alter call.
... And perhaps one day I just might give one of them a shot!
Ticket to my concert
