Prosperity with Google

You cannot possibly get any luckier than you’d normally do when using Google Indonesia. Just switch the language to Indonesian and this is what you’ll see.

Get what I mean? Lol!

Are you my barn buddy?

Hmmm…ever heard of Barn Buddies? In case you haven’t, it’s a popular Facebook farming simulator game, and if you like the game, chances are you would probably have heard of other ‘imitations’ too. Read on.

You probably must have guessed by now that I’m quite addicted to this game. I loved it so much, I went on to look for more similar games; I did a Facebook search for ‘farming games’ and the rest was history. I became a proud owner of veggie patches in Farmville and Farmtown.

See?

Well you get the idea. I knew for a long time, that I’ve always had green fingers. I think it runs in my family. My mother is pretty good in the garden, so she decided to have her own version of you-know-what-I-mean.

See what I mean now? Lol!

Getting Bitten by my Viola

I forgot to bring my shoulder rest to tonight’s string practice! For those who do not know what a shoulder rest is, it’s a little device that you place just under your violin or viola, to create a comfortable distance between your shoulder and the base of the violin or viola, so it makes a lot of difference when playing through 2 hours of difficult pieces!

A typical shoulder rest

Can you imagine vigorously through three pieces for 2 long hours with a piece of metal biting into your jaw? If that’s bad, I couldn’t stop playing…sigh…

Afterlife

It had been a very sad day, for today was the day my friend was laid to rest, marking the closing of the final chapter of his short yet colorful life. His passing was unexpected, and we all thought what a bright future this young man had ahead of him. Alas, that was not to be, for God loved him so much he was called to the House of the Lord last Thursday evening, Singapore time.

I knew Jonathan personally, though not as well as some of my other schoolmates. He and I used to discuss at length some of the latest computer games and strategies.

He had touched my life, and the lives of many others.

Life is so fragile.

When I learned of his passing, a day after he drew his last breath, it was a  stark reality I could not accept. I had barely gotten the chance to tell him how much I appreciate his friendship, and now Jon is gone.

His passing was a real awakening for me, and probably even to those who were close to him. I realized that life is too short to squander, complaining about trivialities, whining, and procrastinating. That life is meant to be enjoyed, and cherished. That the difficulties we often encounter in life, as reminders that we still have many things to accomplish, for ourselves, and for others. That the reason why our hearts still beat in us, as the Lord’s way of reminding us, that the days we have left to roam this earth, to make a lasting impact on the lives of others, are numbered.

It is through Jon’s passing, though tragic, that I humbly believe, many people will be inspired and touched, in ways that could have not been possible if he had still been with us.

Thank you Jon for the times we had spent together. The Lord loves you.

Rest in peace my friend.
