Wednesday, my "Weekday" Offday

I had steambot last night. Yup, the celebration of the Mooncake Festival. I miss the time when I carried tanglung with my fellow cousins and friends. Anyway, I guess I had eaten too much last night, and eventually I got too tired and slept very early.

I had to meet a couple today, along with our founder, Mr. Ian. I "steal" the couple from Santiago, during the process of approving their wedding album. I am so blessed that I can have a connection with the clients with this new job. The most exciting part is when I manage to fulfilled their need from my design. I really thank God soooo much for this new job. Without Him, I really don't know where I will be heading right now.

Had breakfast with Ian near Sabah Mamak at Sun City and off we go to our clients' shops: The Ku's Inn near Gun and Roses. The clients are positive toward the packages offered. One interesting idea from them when they asked whether the animation can be done hand in hand with the slide show. I might consider to come out another package from this. :) anyway, let just pray that I will manage to get this very first project from the outside. If I really do, I will have to re-schedule my time especially, the Mission and Gospel Conference is near. Gotta work out with so many things at the same time...

Media ministry.. I really thank God that He is AWESOME. I prayed that He will use MedianLabs mightily in the extension of His Kingdom. Let us be the Kingdom Builder instead of the Wealth Builder. Gambate~~~~ :)

Drums... a new instrument that I cope up recently. I really admired how our brothers and sisters can play them so "crazily". HAHA! But I am honored that I can serve in it, eventhough I am still "really fresh at it". Trying to catch up the beats especially the rolling and the progression. Anyway, hope to invest a drum set in the future1 :p (but definitely a new laptop and upgrade my comp will come before that) haha

Cell group is postponed to thursday, which is tommorow. Trying to do some research and studying for John 2. :). Hope to have a good fellowship with our brothers and sisters tommorow, and hoping that our cell group will learn "to be back to the apostles'" time!

Liar, Liar pants on Fire

After a long busy day, finally the clock strikes 6.30pm.
Drag my feet and I reached Boulevard just to get some fresh air, and some shopping for the Sunday School craft material.

After paying the cash and planning to shop for the Dreamweaver at Soon Seng, a young man approached me. I am alert about the things he offered. Knowing that temptation is always "a short cut", obviously the man is trying to trap me for this lucky draw, and I know that for sure, in the end, I will be paying more just to get the prize. Anyway, driving by curiosity, I want to see how they "con" things out. (I was scolded by my mom and my bro for being "too adventurous".)

The man said that they are from a company that sell SK Classic electrical appliances. (I found thier website at http://www.e-cowas.com.my/ and bad reputation from Online Consumer Community Portal, basically on how they cheated the "big fish".) And he asked me whether I am 21 years old, and I will be having a chance to draw some prize near the opposite end of Boulevard stage at the top floor. The place they chose were rather "remote" though. The man lead me to another fellow who's waiting out side the "shop". I was rather frightened when I saw that I am the only person, and also the only female there. O dear, I cried deep in my heart for God to help me through.

Then, the other fellow lead me to his desk, with a desktop there. Congratulating me, he asked me to fill a form, saying that the company is doing some marketing survey. Well, haha, I simply write a random name, tel no, and even a non existing address. I remembered the man asked me how I pronounced my name, I said loudly "Wong Yong Wen" HAHA!

Now, the interesting part is when he asked me whether I know how to use a computer, I said no. And when he found out that I am a designer, and how I try to mess up the computer, (Basically, the lucky draw is done on the desktop, poorly designed interactive jackpot), he said "You lied to me and how naughy you are, trying to mess up my comp!" (I try to click other stuff, wanted to see other things on this interactive thingy")

Anyway, from the website I found, the chance of "winning" is 99.9%, and yeah, the fellow said I won a myterious prize and I will have another chance for the second lucky draw. By the way, this fellow is the type of person we normally called Ah Beng", and the way he talked is really loud and well, a bit "irritating". He asked a lot of stuff during the process, and I just answered him in a "not interested with what you offer" ways. Basically trying to act bored.

I got a pen for this mysterious prize. (I knew that it is a pen all along when he brought the "prize" for me. Just that it is attached with a torch light.) And haha, he tried to deny it when I said it is a pen! Anyway, the peak is at the 2nd lucky draw. The fellow asked me to click randomly on the 16 boxes where there is ONLY 3 boxes are contained with mysterious prizes.
Again I mess up the comp by simply clicking other things, haha! (thank God I am still save here, my mom said that I will be beaten up if I am not careful, trying to act as an annoying person!)
Obviously I won. I didn't show any expression when the fellow congratulate me. He looks more excited than I do. I can see that I have "won" a TV set and a few other electrical appliances. I just said that I am not interested and I wanted to go home badly. I still remember the fellow said that, "Why go back so early! You just won yourself a big prize!" So funny!

Now, I believe the guy was shock when I said this and when I showed no interest on the "prize I won". I said" I already get myself a far greater prize." He said, "What is it?" "In heaven!" I said. Standing up, and I just wanna leave that place. Feeling "hopeless", the fellow said, "Take this pen with you then!" I left him by saying, "Keep it yourself." I can hear that he screamed at the back of me. But I didn't turned back at all.

I can imagine how mad he will be and how he will cursed me! "Cursed you! WONG YONG WEN!" LOL!. When I drove myself back, I remembered something, I should have give him the gospel track with me! Ahhh! What a chance I lost! And I forgot to buy Dreamweaver as well >,<....

Created In but Not of This World

What a fallen world we are living in!

As I surf and live among those who haven't know the Christ yet, it is a heartbroken experience.

Their lifestyle is completely consume by the world.

How I wish I could share with them the Good News that I have, but indeed, I really need His wisdom, guidance and most of all His love to share with them.

I trembled most of the time. And I fear that my heart could not overcome the temptation.

Today, things got worst.
Gossping, backstabbing, adultery, dishonest, hating each other... all come at the same time!
I felt that it's time to stand out as His ambassador to be the light and salt of this world I am in right now. O Lord, help me to guard my heart as well.

Pray for me, brothers and sisters.

Claim the Media Back to Christ

I received the mail from Ian only after the 3rd days lauching of the MedianLabs website.
Goodness, I never know that I have stop writting for almost a year. Actually, I do have a chinese blog at MYSPACE(can't remember the address, dear me).

So, a little copy paste from here and there for my "noob" understanding of html for a better layout; (What a good time killer) and a "donno what to write filling up the space 2007 post" for the new and improved blog. HAHA!

Yup, really thank God for the outstanding achievements for the Medianites, and I hope that in the future, MedianLabs will grow strong in its objective "Claim the Media Back to Christ". Nevertheless, the growing of faith in Him; and may His name to be glorified all alone through this wonderful ministry!

Relentless 2007 is coming soon. Met Ian 2 days back for the discussion of the intro Promo. Guess it is time for me to get serious once again. And it means: Cut down time from Maple Story and dedicated myself more on the development of my multimedia skills. Awwwww~ Lol

I really hope to learn 3D in the future.. and I remembered how I handled LightWave half a decade back... It's all rusted now, I guess. Can't imagine the fun to embed 3D elements into flash and + Adobe After Effects.. Fuyoh~~~~~ Need MORE pressure to keep myself going!
