God's love is spreading to the world!

Gosh. i didn't know that Ada Choi or Sherene Tang were christians. seriously. that is really shocking. came across this 'interview' about Ada Choi's love for Christianty (awww...)

Finding New Life through the Love of Religion

After the days without God in her life, this made Ada cherish everything she has even more and she will always be smiling. Since becoming a Christian, she has a happy and thankful heart and understands the meaning of life.

H: Many people know that you are a Christian, have you had any periods where you felt you could not see God?
A: I put God aside in 1995 and at the time, my career was going very well and I even filmed movies with Stephen Chow and Jet Li, but then I had nothing to do and in 9 months, no-one offered me any work. Coupled with the poor relationship I had with my family, I felt very helpless. At the time, I had no friends and was overly self-protecting, so I was very false and would not put my heart into friendships and did know know what point there was to life. In 1996, I returned to the church and began to realise my problems, I found love there and also met a lot of friends. I brought God into my work and I changed entirely.

H: Christians usually feel very humble, have you ever lost out on any opportunities because of your faith? When I first started in the industry, people told me to offer incense and join in the photo to increase press coverage, but I felt I would rather have less publicity. I would joke with them and say: "If I carried a cross, then there would be even more pictures of me."
A: I turned down some films because of God or when I was out spreading the gospel, but I believe that God has His arrangements for me. I remember in 1998, a TV station offered me a job and the pay was very good, but because I had to film a ghost story, I decided to stay at TVB and film for "Secret of the Heart", then I received a female lead award for this series, so I was very thankful.

H = the guy interviewing her (who is an actor as well)
A = Ada Choi

Came across this one too:

Ada Choi is a devoted Christian and given the opportunity to visit Israel and the birthplace of Jesus in TVB's travel show "On the Road", she was very excited and enthusiastic, but when she had her own experience of carrying a cross and the suffering of Christ, it moved her to tears.

Awww.. isn't that great? God also works in many others. i'm very happy for Ada Choi!

and heard that gigi lai's brother met with an accident (drink-driving taxi driving accident). and someone said this, "Without everyone's support and SMS text messages, she would not have been able to hang in there. Co-star, Ada Choi Siu Fun will also be praying for Gigi's brother."

waiting for gigi lai to be a christian now =P. this website said. "Gigi prayed to God that as long as Stephen gets better, she will become a vegeterian for the rest of her life". not sure whether she's referring to God (as in the one we Christians believe). no one knows. can't find info about her religion anywhere! if she's not, hope she does become one. heard that sherene tang invited her to church. cool!! and i heard that's 2 years ago =(. i hear alot of things huh.

there's this group of hk celebs (who are christians) which are called 'house of artists'. why 'house of artists'? but nevermind. there are other christian hk celebs but they didn't join it. YET.

yay! today's a friday! so happy. but later, i have piano class *sob*. that's sad.
gtg now ppl. cya on my next post =)

Cantonese as a 2nd language?

those in school, should know how i speak cantonese. if you wanna know how creepy it is, you should ask phan mee yee. muahahhaa. anyways, i speak cantonese, like a guai lo or something. seriously...! my tongue is used to english (which is a western language) but i'm forcing it to talk in cantonese! (which is an eastern language). well, i HAVE to speak cantonese to my grandparents, aunties/uncles and PHAN MEE YEE what. my grandparents don't understand english. my aunties/uncles/PHAN MEE YEE are quite well-versed in english, but prefers cantonese.

hehe. just came across this cool funny proverb which is in cantonese. kong tai wa lat tai nga. it means..if you lie, your teeth will fall out. which is a children proverb and obviously, not true =). it's nice and funny mostly cause it rhymes.

gosh. there's this really funny tvb anniversary video. it's so funny. but it's funny if you understand cantonese larh. but if u don't, it's not that as funny.

watch it. haha! it's kinda disgusting like, men dressing up as women. haha. it's based on the tvb hit show war&beauty. when i first watched it, i laughed. alot.

i'm feeling kinda bored with my nintendo DS now. wish i had asked for a handphone. why oh why did i ask for a Nintendo DS! i regreted. but, what can i do? if i want a new phone, i need to get no.1 in my class. that will take time. and seriously, i think it's impossible. not to say it is..just. nevermind. people say, 'nothing is impossible'. but would it be possible for a flying ice-cream truck to fall on you this very second? no. lol. it's just like getting no.1 in 1E. yeah it's possible, but takes alot of time. cuz this is the last exam and you can't get no.1 in 1E anymore after this exam can you? lol.

and today, for p.moral, teacher said that the best way to control your emotions, is to pray. she asked WBC and he said he prays twice a day. then she asked me, and i said "usually.." she didn't give me time to finish completing my sentence. then she said "sze ern tak sembahyang. dia ialah seorang yang cina. pure chinese". and then i was like..shocked. lol. i didn't say that at all. i tried to tell her that, but she didn't look at me at all. what a shocker!

ooo..i had something else to tell you guys, but i forgot. another day =). ciao!

safety on the road

yesterday and the day before yesterday, i saw 3 accidents. one of them involved 6 cars crashing into each other. one of them i have seen with my own eyes while eating dinner with my family, and the other one is..just a plain accident but really brutal.

this shows us that the road is a dangerous path to death. but it is also where cars drive =). so people, remember the safety rules on the street. especially for those who are driving. do not drink-drive or do anything which will cause damage to yourself on the road. be safe.

the more they tease me, the more they love me?!

The more they tease me, the more they love me. is that really true o.O? haha. i believe they didn't mean to hurt me. haha. it IS my fault. tq to cheryl and ivy for preparing the lovely brownies. too bad i couldn't savour it. i had to go for swimming.. =(.

i spent my whole day online. doing nothing. haha. i have a feeling my eyes are shrinking. and i'm really scared my eyesight will go worse. i DON'T want to wear glasses (no offence to those who are wearing spectacles =D)i'm a computer freak! what can i do =)? it's me. tomorrow, we're singing in choir. God please bless us all! O God of Abraham. *sigh*. acapella! and i'm an alto. why am i so nervous? is it because i'll be wearing robes tomorrow? nah. i don't really mind. ah shucks. God will guide us =)

it's 12.25 a.m. 23rd of september now. i'm typing in my blog and my brother is playing the Nintendo DS while watching 'Pinnochio'. i don't think he's even watching it! i got nothing very special to type in my blog today. except for some people printing the mistake i made! and highlighting it. thank you guys. thank you. i learnt from my mistake. so joel, don't rely on me to brighten your day! haha.

Passion

hey everyone. today, i'm going to tell you about the word 'passion'. it means alot to me. it can be passion for something, or Passion '07 or The Dance of Passion. a word, an event and a show. all in one.

first, the word. the definition of the word is : intense emotions or enthusiasm. for me, it's more to enthusiasm and interest. i have interest in the computer, books and some other stuff.

second, the event. i don't know anything about it. i just know that chris tomlin, david crowder band and someone else was in there. they're really good christian singers. their voices are PHENOMENAL. i like their songs. indescribable, unfailing love, can you feel it and many more. haha. you should ask matt, tim koko or joel koko more about it. they went to US for it =). lucky. and joel koko is a big fan of david crowder band. i think.

third. the show. okay. the show is awesome. i like it. wah lai toi 9.30 p.m. channel 30 astro. the casts are gigi lai, bowie lam, charmaine sheh, moses chan, ada choi and other people. their acting were really good. experience =). almost the same casts for war & beauty. it's just that i did not see war & beauty. lol. they got nice names too. i mean in the show. ming fung and man hei. nice names huh.

the word 'passion' might has more meaning to you guys out there. so, this is just from MY point of view.

intro

Hello my name is Carmen Chan. I am a Christian. i have a bible? And.. i'm looking for a new bible cover. which suits my personality of course, but they're dang expensive. I'll still find the time to buy it =). I attend Cheras Baptist Church. A church i have attended every Sunday for the past 13 years! And i'm proud of it. Most of the songs in my mp3 are chrsitian songs sang by chris tomlin, david crowder band and many more!

hmm...i don't like to pick favourites as friendsI am very passionate about Christianity and errr.... technology? Unfortunately, this blog site don't have smileys. With smileys, you increase your reader's entertainment by 20%! well, if i was the reader, the smileys would make me laugh more when i laugh o.O. OKAY. i'll have to do the manual smileys.

i have a pet dog named Miki. Weird name, yes. But, hello. I like Mickey and Nikki so i jumbled it up together and it became...Miki! haha. well, actually i don't really like Mickey but...nevermind that! i don't like to pick favourites and when i'm captain in my group, I let EVERYONE participate. and when i mean everyone in my group, i mean it. but sometimes when i get too involved, i forget about justice in my group. i eventually invited a girl who no one really wanted in my group and not many people like her. and that means you, Yoong. muahahaha.

I like Hong Kong TVB dramas. well some of it larh. such as Dance of Passion or The Dance of Passion <3. it ="D." color="#996633">bubu, boo, kenyola and hula). i had my embarassing moments. and i can't really tell them to you. right now, i mean. maybe next time when i post "Most Embarassing Moments".

There is more i would like to tell you but i'm afraid i'll make you sleep at the end of my post. is this too long? hehe. it should be. and remember, say NO to smiley-blockage. haha. i didn't mean it. and about the imaginary friends, i don't have any.
