How to do the egg without breaking

(On the top right is our Management Lecturer Pam, on the top left is my buddy Emily)



Recently in our Management module, we were given an interesting and very challenging group assignment.

Each group is supposed to come up with a story about the egg...It's super power..how it travel to another planet..the mission of this egg...





And the most challanging part is how to drop the raw egg without breaking...

My usual group has 5 people..however we need to break up and form 3 people in a group. So My group broke into 2 for this assignment..
Emily, myself and Markus in one group..Sean, Tom is another group..and Yama joined them..

On sunday, straight after church..I arranged for Markus and emily to come to my place at the voideck of my place to do our egg assignment together..

That day..we each came up with one story about the egg...
Markus came up as this egg is like superman..do everything..I came up as this egg can transform into anything as an emergency tools to help people during crisis..
and Emily came up with sunshine egg that can multiply as raindrops...





And so...using these 3 stories...I came up with our final story...putting this 3 stories into one..called the story of super egg S.E.N.S.E

Its quite a lame story tho..but fun..
I will share with you the story later...

The tough part of this assigment is how to drop the raw egg without breaking from a height..we are only given one roll of masking tape..one raw egg and 2 straws..
We tried all ways and means..trying to buffer the egg...but eventually broke 12 eggs...what a waste...So, we failed...

Then the night before our presentation..Emily came over to my place after work..and we did our presentation slide together..She helped me with the typing as we discussed how we want the presentation slide to be...I did the part on the designing while she do the text...Then I shared my idea on the Parachute and she helped me to work on it as I modify the presentation..and did the buffer part of the parachute for the egg...Finally we finished at 1am.
Then I drove and sent her home...
Thank God...by 1am...we managed not only to get our presentation slide done but also our egg parachute was successful...the egg didn't break...Thank God!!!

The day came..for presentation...
It was amazing how well every group did...
Each group came up with amazing stories......so did we...hee..quite entertaining...

Funny thing is..all the group came up with the similar egg bomb/ball idea..to prevent the raw egg from breaking...hmm...why didn't we think of that...





But something which we should give ourselves a pat on our shoulder for my group is that ..we were the one group who did the parachute egg..and the egg was not fully wrapped up ..and it actually did not break when I throw from a height..

Frankly speaking...I was so nervous..when I step on the chair..that my feet were shivering...hahaha...



We had great fun!!! It was a great experience..Indeed we learnt alot in this PMS class..
and not to forget it was Melvern's birthday that day...we had a mini celebration for him as you can see here...
Happy belated Birthday Melvern!

Pen Pal

When was the last time you got a pen pal?
To me its like ages...

Recently I got myself a pen pal from States:)
This feeling is strange..as if I was back to my school days where I had pen pal..
except that those days..we really used pen to write letters to someone we never really knew nor seen.

The excitement of writing and waiting to receive each other's letter is the best part.

Whether you believe it or not...
This reminds me of my first boyfriend back then..(of cuz not during school days)..

My first boyfriend was a very sweet guy...he is someone who is very close to my heart. Our love was simple and pure..
Each day we had endless things to talk to each other...
We meet each other face to face...talking non-stop...
even after he returns home..we will talk on the phone for hours...till 3am or so before we willing hang up the phone to get to some sleep..

And best part of it...
We wrote love letters to each other....haha..even tho we see each other almost everyday...chat on the phone for hours...
yet we just didn't seem to get enough of it...
I love reading his love letters...its sweet and heart warming...
The letters often ends up in few pages long...

Sad to say...nowadays..you hardly can find any one that genuine to do such sweet stuff...they probably will think you are crazy..or its a waste of time...

However, never do one realised that..its the simplest thing in life..which will leaves the sweetest memories....

Frankly speaking...each time as I open my mailbox...I was secretly hoping that some sweet secret admirer might just drop me a sweet mail in my mailbox....
but....hm...will it add sweetness to my days..or will it frighten me off....hahaha...

Hope you enjoy this short sweet story from me today:)
Sweet dreams:)

Happy New Year!!!

Happy 2010 everyone!!!!
May the Lord shower you & your family with love, grace and blessings thru-out this year!!!

How did you spend your New Year?
Haha..I was working full day and even Over-time on New Year Eve..hahaha..can you believe it???
But its fine cuz I love my job :)

Went to pick dad, sis and little bro to meet my brother and his family for New Year dinner in a simple and affortable restaurant.

Thereafter, we went to my brother's place stayed over nite..supposed to go for watchnite service in Church..but Sorry Lord I was too tired..after working full day and OT..

However I did my thanksgiving prayer to the Lord on my own...Thank you Lord once again..even tho last year was a year of many economy crisis but you blessed me and my family with abundance..Pray for the salvation of my entire family..that they will all become your children and share this salvation one day:)
Forgive me for all my sins and help me to become a better person with better character and more like U in many ways...

Pray that the Lord will continue to bless me and my family in this 2010.
And if there should be any glory..May all the glory be given to my Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank u Lord for everything! Amen.

Now..back to where I was..
Went to watch Avatar 3D in Century Square..heard was a great show!!!
We watched midnite last nite..
Show was great but we were disappointed as the screen in that cinema was not huge enough and good enough for 3D shows..even tho that is my fav cinema...
The 3D spec was too heavy also..unlike the ones by GV.
Sound effect wasn't too great too!!

But overall..it was a nice show..enjoyed the show...
Experience learnt first day of 2010..to watch 3D..I need to go to a better cinema with bigger screen and better sound system..and chose a seat nearer to the screen..hahaha...

I am wanna watch Alvin & the Chipmunks with my 3 godchildren late this evening at my fav cinema again..but well..since this is not a 3D show..I am sure it will turn out great!!! hee..

Now time to take a little nap...
Nitey nite:)
Muck!!!
btw..

Missed u very much Sandra, Peter and my dear god son E.T in Melbourne:)
Pray that after I graduate..I can visit you again...
Love u always:)
Angeline (ganma)..

Hello everyone,

Hope its not too late to wish all of you a wonderful Christmas & a very Happy & blessed New Year!

May our Lord bless u and ur family a healthy, joyful, peaceful & wonderful 2010!!!

------------------------------------------------

A little update on how I spent this years Christmas:
Schedule was crazy cuz I have oversea guest who came in during the Christmas week..
no chance to finish Christmas shopping...owed lots of people presents..
Didn't even managed to get the present for my dad and little bro..
Had to get my sis to help me to do the last min shopping on Christmas eve...and can't believe it..I made my decision on which to buy over a video call..haha...

Then picked my sis and bro up from home to go to my brother's place to spend our christmas together...
Did up a quick christmas tree on the wall with my 2 years old niece..since we have no christmas tree this year...and then had all the presents place underneath...that 2D christmas tree..

We exchange the present and since this is the first Christmas for my niece, she was so excited with all the deco and presents..and volunteer to help us put all the presents underneath the christmas tree, then help us to pick our presents and opening up for us...we had great fun!!! :)

Supposed to do Movie marathon..but was too exhausted..knocked out before Christmas..
Went to Christmas Service early in the morning with Mum & little brother then to our usual (1000 people) Christmas lunch at the Chinese Restaurant after the service.

Thereafter went home take a quick nap...
Then went to meet my bestfriend and the ladies as well as one Italian guy to dine in a wonderful Italian restaurant.
The people (esp the boss of the restaurant), the ambience and best of all the food..was great!!!

We did our gift exchange as well...Had a wonderful time! Thanks for the arrangement for that special dinning experience..and best of all..it cost us less of 40bucks each. Cool isn't it??? hee...

Hope ur Christmas was great!!!

Old Pics

Few days ago I was chatting with an old classmate over facebook about the past...
Thereafter lots of memories flash back...
I couldn't recall how I looked then..during my secondary schools..only remembre I look really old fashion and not attractive at all...

When was the last time you flipped thru your old album?

Thus I took out my huge old album with all my pic collections back then...
Looking at them...I couldn't stop laughing at the way I looked back then...
Especially my hair style..my eyebrow...and dressing...
Oh dear...looks totally 'unglam'...I think thats what Joyce my bestfriend will say..I guess its worst then that...

hee..thank God for the improvements I made over the years...I must say..self confidence plays a very important part...
I used to be one who has low self esteem...which I believe all my buddies esp Joyce knows that...

As years goes by...God built up my self confidence bit by bit....
To an extend when I told someone in the past that I am not a self confidence person and had low self esteem..he couldn't believe it..

I guess men change...be it for the better or for the worst..
and of cuz I wish its for the better..for everyone..

I recall during one event when my church posted some of our old pics as we travel back thru the memory lane...I feel so embarassed as that pic which I took..had a triangular permed hairstyle...hahaha..I really feel like burying my head in the soil like an ostrich..heee...

Anyway..its good to see ourselves improving thru the years isn't it?
Looking at those pics...
I had a question: Those guys who court after me...back then..when I looked the way I was back then...Did they had stamps stick on their eyes (its a Hokkien/dialect expression-saying someone couldn't see properly and made the wrong decision esp in chosing your sponse or partners)..hee..

My sister had a different value..she said...those could be true love..as true love doesn't depends on looks...
I guess thats right...
Like now..I look better (even tho I improved in all areas)..but (looking around me...hmm...no one...) All I can find are those who only wanted sex or go for looks..which is totally disappointing and not what I want or seek for..

So guys, if you are not into true relationship and looking for only sexual excitment..I am not your cup of tea..don't waste your time and mine..

Okie..thats all for now..
As christmas is approaching...are you done with your christmas shopping?
Me? 1/2 done i supposed..
There is gift exchange in YF this evening..bringing my classmate with me too..
Pray that she will get to experience the true meaning of christmas..

CheerS:)
Blessed Christmas everyone!

Christmas isn't Christmas (lyrics)

Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart;
Somewhere deep inside you, is where Christmas really starts.
So give your heart to Jesus, you'll discover when you do....
That it's Christmas, really Christmas for you.....

(Chorus)
Jesus brings warmth like a winter fire,
A light like a candle's glow...
He's waiting now to come inside as He did so long ago....
Jesus brings gifts of truth and life, and makes them bloom & grow..
So welcome Him with a song of joy...
And when He comes you'll know..

That Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart...
Somewhere deep inside you is where Christmas really starts...
So give your heart to Jesus; you'll discover when you do..
That it's Christmas, really Christmas for you.....

Cont' from previous post..

I guess we will be getting our keys to our new place in a few months time..

I have so much things in me which I wanted to share with you here..esp each sunday during the service after listening to the sermon..

But each time after reaching home...I will be too tired to write my blog..and then..forgot what I really wanted to share with you..

I must saying..I am thankful to be a christian..and in a good church which emphasize strongly in the truth (words of God). Praise the Lord for that Amen!

Just a quick updates of what has been going on in my life..
1) Busy with work- oversea VIPs visiting..I have to assist them during their visit...on top of my regular job scope..

2) School work...2nd year is no joke..needs lots of time and commitments..
each week other than having classes during the nite..we have to meet up in our own group to prepare for our presentation for every lesson..

3) Exams..(stressful...), every 3-4 months is one semester and at the end of each semester is Exams...

4) Family..Its sad to realise and see the changes in my Dad as he aged..
My heart hurts..each time I see him getting weaker and weaker...
Each time I recall how strong my dad used to be...
and now..how weak he looks or walks...
not long ago like many elderly..fell broke few ribs..and fell again..off the escalator..My heart bleeds..so sad to see him..suddenly grew old...hate to admit that my dad suddenly grew old..It reminds me that one day..all of us will grow old..and become weak and somehow helpless...
Dad has stopped working..we wanted him to rest and had more detail examination from Doc as he doesn't seems to be in good shape right now..

5) 2 funerals within 8 days...
Melissa's mum passed away during my exam...I couldn't attend the wake service but managed to attend her funeral svc tho..
Then Valissa's dad passed away..I didn't managed to attend as I was way to exhausted after exam..

Each time attending funeral..reminds me how short and unpredictable life is..
One day I will be laying there in peace..back to my heavenly Father..
During Melissa's mum's funeral svc, I had a chance to talk to my pastor's daughter..
Telling her..one day..if I lay there...I think I will be the happiest person..I will be comforted...and joyful that I have accomplished the mission God has given me on earth. Each time I talked about my preparation for my death/funeral..people around gives me a weird and sad look..But I told them..what is death? Death is not fearful if you know for sure where you are going...

The lyrics of a Hymn which always reminds me..if today I leave...will I meet my Lord with empty handed, not a single soul I bring???? (Have you bring anyone to Christ? Did you share your faith openly? Are you proud to be a christian? Have you ever tell anyone about Jesus/God's love for men that Jesus came to die for you and me on the cross so that by believing in Him we will be saved..we will receive eternal life and goes to heaven one day to be with our Lord?).
Do not miss any chance of sharing about your faith my christian friends..For its our mission on earth to share about the truth & God's sacrifical love, sharing with their the key to salvation.

May this Christmas be a true Christmas to you!
I will share one of my favour song with you in my next post..
I wish if you are here...I can sing for you..otherwise..if you know this song..do sing with me with the lyrics provided.

Blessed Christmas to you!
Jesus Loves You!!!

Finally home again...

Phew...what a long journey to make myself travel back 'home' to this blog again.
Strange feeling tho..
a sense of happiness, a sense of lost, a sense of missing..a sense of....
But whatever it is...
Its good to finally be back..here with you guys again..

Now, what has Angeline been doing during this period of 'MIA'???
I remember attending Joyce my best friend and Cindy my buddy's birthday party at bala few weeks ago..in the mist of my exam...giving them a surprise as well as giving myself a short break in btw of my exams...
My friends were surprised to see me there...and most of them said almost that same things that its good to see me..and I have been soo soo busy..always seeing msg on my facebook saying I am tired...dead tired..exhausted...its exam again...how many more papers to go and so on...

Well..ya...basically thats what my life is about right now...WORK, STUDY, EXAM & mostly FAMILY should I have anymore time left..I do missed those times when I can stick around with friends and buddies in cafe..shopping and so on....
Thinking of it..those seems like a luxury to me right now...
For now..should I have any time...what I need and wanted most is sleep...
I haven't had time to read my many books in my room..which I will be donating to our church library in few months time...when we shift to our new place which will be a much much smaller place..

It will be a great headache for me I think..
Well..I guess..there will always come a time, whereby such decision of keeping and removing has to be made...Frankly speaking..if not for such moments I guess..I will continue to keep everything that I have imp memories for me..
But well..life goes on..and we have to move on...

Cont' in next post..if not this will be a long post for u guys to read..
