This friend, we fostered through our Cell group, one and half years ago. He was our main guitarist for our song sessions. He was a fine chap, a little on the heavy side but not the obese kind. flashes of memories of his jokes, his laughter, his moustache movement, his wonderful voice, his ever messy hair, the twinkle in his eyes still cause me to choke into a sob... In his mid 40s, there should be many more things to do together. a family trip here, yet another CNY dinner to gather...
But... we could, he was.. cos he had gone to report home to our Father sooner than the rest of us. Earlier than expected, too sudden for us to realise it and reconcile with the fact. My other dear friend, his wife has more to grief.. he wanted to paint the house and discussed about it the night before the Lord called him home. Many things yet undone...
A tiny blood vessel in the brain burst and caused homorraging .. it killed him within that few minutes. After the operation, they had to take off the respiration support to let his body go. I can only be glad with the knowledge that we will meet again in our heavenly home, may God bless us all.

2For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night

about work stress and abbreviation
This is an example of how a stressful person under stressful working environment with emails that writes stressful abbreviation reply:
Hi C, what is the AO nbr to put in this order?
Kindly provide the AO nbr to put in the order.
1. To the untrain eye, AO number which returns for google search is
defined as
Allegheny Observatory Number
Search by unique identifier (i.e., running number) assigned to the
individual stars by staff at the Allegheny Observatory. Enter an integer
from 1 to 4 characters. This search will only return one result.
Source: http://digital.library.pitt.edu/parallax/searchparallax.html
2. In the other words, this track of communications makes no sense. I
will appreciate if you can kindly spare my time reading these materials.
3. I only ask for part numbers listed in the orders. While any other
sets of numbers offers opportunities to buy 4D, these are not exactly
requested.
4. I apologise for the spam.

First Entry in 2006
There's alot that to write but I'm always summarising the events..haha.
Here is a nice family foto during my BD, 'xept Nathan's eye is half shut, as usual:
We started the year with a nice touch at Esplanade. We made it at the very minute they started the laser and fireworks. While watching on the sky show, I noticed my children opened their mouth as they stared at the fireworks. so funny. the first time we brought the kiddos for a fireworks, Tasha wailed her heart out cos the effect was so loud.
What we did the next few days after that was nothing spectacular, prob cos school is starting soon. The good thing is Nathan's school is just 5 minutes walk from my home so our morning schedule would be, now that I have sent my domestic helper back. Waiting for the next one to come but definitely not looking forward *sigh*
6.30am, wake up and prepare breakfast.
6.45am, wake Nathan and let him do his morning stuff (brush teeth, eat, change into uniform). I'll then be able to do a quick shower.
7.10am, walk him to school and make sure he has pocket money
7.20am, wake Natasha to get ready for school. Has to assist her as she is still dependent.
7.45am, drive Tasha to school and go to work from there.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
meanwhile, the other updates will be that irritating domestic helper. Almost everyday, I need to yell at her which is something I really hate to do. The longer she works, the worse she gets. After she left, I found a blood stained underwear of hers in the midst of our clothes when I do my laundry. double sigh. I have no confident in the new maid but well, I can just hope, else I really would need to explore any other options that comes along.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We were also looking around for car. What top our list is Toyota Wish. We test drove VW beetle, Peugeot 406, Nissan Latio sports... We'll still wait for a while before committing.
