Sneak Peek: Langkawi Nature Discovery review trip

I participated in Langkawi Nature Discovery review trip on 20-Nov, 2010. This review trip is part of 'Travel with a Green Heart' campaign organized by penang.cc (Penang Community Center). It is a free day trip to Pulau Langkawi. After the trip, the participants have to submit a blog post sharing about the trip review within two weeks.

So, please stay tuned for the trip review!

祂在我心里动了善工！

14號星期天的早晨， 当我在驾着车去教会时，我想是圣灵感动了我使我做了以下的祷告。 那时, 我是不由自主地哽咽着说着这个祷告.
做了这个祷告之后，我就在心裡說着:"今天, 我要为那些侍奉的人祷告."

其实, 从我家到教会是需要经过四个交通灯的. 可是当我一路上駕著車一面在做这个祷告时, 我发现我所经过的每个交通灯都是绿灯的.

到了教会后, 我就吃了早餐后去参加晨祷.

当晨祷就要快结束时, 像往常一样我们都会替當天侍奉的人祷告. 这时我就听到Bro. Leng 在前面叫着:"我们请Bro. Tang 出来为今天侍奉的人祷告." 那时, 我真的一面摇着头一面走着出去， 我心里说着:"上帝, 今天我真的服了袮!". 袮當真的有聽我的禱告！

所以，我就站在前面重複了我在車子裡所作的以下禱告：

“亲爱的上帝, 今天我很高兴欢喜能够为那些侍奉的人做祷告. 不管那些在台前台后为袮侍奉的人, 我都要为他们祷告. 祈求袮赐给他们在为袮侍奉时一颗喜乐的心. 使他们在侍奉时都能够向袮高歌. 这些侍奉的人都是渴慕與袮親近的人, 他们都是希望经过侍奉袮而能有属灵上的成长.”

“亲爱的主啊! 我也要为那些还未能够侍奉袮的人来代祷. 祈求袮亲自來差遣他們来感动他们, 亲自地告诉他们使他们知道要在袮的葡萄园的哪一个岗位来侍奉. 祈求袮也赐给他们勇气使他们能够勇敢地站出来为袮侍奉.”

“亲爱的主啊! 如果那些为袮侍奉的人在侍奉上遇到困难或是挫折时, 祈求袮派天使为他们开路; 祈求袮跟他们说不要灰心. 因为, 能够侍奉袮是我们的荣耀. 我们要将这荣耀归给袮!”

“我就将这些人都交托仰望袮. 祈求袮亲自的来引领他们.”

“这祷告都是奉耶稣得胜的名祈求!”

從這一個事件看來，我真的是可以感覺到聖靈在我心裡動了善工。那是多麼奇妙的感覺！好期待下一次聖靈的充滿！

CSL Spice MI700 Droidpad review

CSL was doing a promotion on its latest Droidpad (Spice MI700) now (from 11-14 Nov 2010) in Gurney Plaza, Penang. On 13-Nov, they did a product introduction for 20 bloggers in Penang. I was lucky to be one of the 20 bloggers who participated in this event.

OK now, let's talk about this new gadget. Naturally, I will compare it with iPad, the hottest gadget in town at this moment.

As the name suggested, it is powered by Android 2.2. This device is your tablet PC and mobile phone in one go at RM1599. If you buy the set during the promotion period, you will get a bluetooth headset, 4GB memory card for free and an extended 6 months of warranty.

Here is my verdict of this device.

Pro
- Price competitive. Only RM1599.
- It is both WIFI and HSDPA 3.5G capable. You cannot get this feature combination on a iPad at this price.
- Built-in GPS chip-set. (But I wonder if you need to this feature if you are using it in a Starbuck.)
- Able to make phone calls. You cannot do that on a iPad!

Con
- Smaller screen. Nowadays, people wants both big screen and also portability.
- low screen resolution compared to iPad.

This is the real device here! It comes with 7in full capacitive touch screen.

It looks cool! Cooler than iPad? Your choice!

Quite thin. 179.4mm to be exact. Weight is 410g. I feel it is light enough when I hold it in my hand. It also comes with a pouch.

Everyone gave 100% attention to the product introduction. Some did not forget to snap photo of the new kid on the block for their blog I think.

This proved that you can take a decent photo with this device. It comes with a 3.0 megapixels with auto focus!

The green giant of the show who trying hard to attract the crowd. A gal attraction.

The most exciting (and nail biting) moment for the bloggers. We had to pick one blue bag from the ladies if we answered a question from the MC. There is one MI700 Droidpad in one of these blue bags. The chance was 1 over 20.

Ya, I was not the lucky one who walked away with the Droidpad. This lady is. Congratulation to her!

A photo gallery is born

This is a project which I intended to start about 15 months ago. My goal is to fill up the side wall of the living room of my apartment with the travel photos I shot. I got this idea from the internet. The photos were actually framed up about 13 months back but I left them lying on the floor doing nothing other than collecting dust. It's shame really! Few weeks back, my brother finally helped me to buy an impact drill from his company which enables me to drill the wall with holes to hang up these photos. Drilling holes on the wall is not as easy task as it seems to be. I spent about an hour this afternoon to hang up these photos. There is one more larger photo which I did not manage to hang it up because I was running out of the hook. Next round, I will probably frame some photos with white frame or silver frame. And maybe I should just stick to white and black frame. Anyway, I am sure I will fill up the wall within next 6 months. The cost of framing one photo is not cheap and it depends on the length of wood needed. So, I can only afford to frame 3-4 photos in one round.

Finally, I have a photo gallery of my own!

Some description of photos:

借口

在人生的十路口的你, 如果前面的路全都是红灯, 你还会一直的往前走吗? 还是, 你停下来等红灯变青灯呢?
如果, 红灯代表你现在在生活上所遇到的难题, 十路口代表你需要做的选择, 你会呆在那里什麽也不做吗? 还是你会找另外一条出路或者做个转弯?
有的人会呆在那里唉声叹气，然后什麽都不做。
有的人会想尽办法来寻找出路。
有的人会在这时装备自己，来等待下一次的机会。
如果你真的不知道要如何才是好，请祈求上帝赐你一个心思意念吧。

最重要的是请不要为自己找一个停滞不前的借口.
