And i learn one way to tell the Manager direct instead of telling the person that i find comfortable talking to. Which i did yesterday, it ended up taking me double the time to fix up the report. That is mistake no 1. Next, shouldn't assume that information given by someone is always correct, at times it is good to do a quick check. I passed a total of close to 600 journals entries and in the end realised that some of them are wrong and some of them are right. It takes me about 2 hours going thru them and finding out where is the error. That is mistake no 2. But thank God, there is a lot of reporting that i didn't have access to by the system, thus i'm able to go back home about 5plus 6. But that day of working 9 to 10 hours really takes away alot of my brain cells.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After work, i came back home, wanted to have a nap, and it is about 6pm. thinking i can take a quick nap, miss the prayer but still able to make it for lifegroup. but i think in my head, i shouldn't take a nap but go for prayer. So i did, i reach lifegroup just before 6:30 prayer. i rested for a while then go in to prayer, but after a while, i even felt more tired then ever. and i decided to rest outside. so instead of having a good 30min nap at home, i went earlier, but ended up not really in prayer and didn't take a nap. That is mistake no 3. Never be double-minded, will get me no where.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lifegroup, before lifegoup started, a leader email us to say that he will be very late for lifegroup as he needs to do some work in the office. that is like.. what??? he is the doing chairing and sharing a few point after watching a dvd that day. And in the lifegroup, there is no one else that had put in that roles ever since the lifegroup formed. The other 2 leaders are not in brisbane. So you can imgaine how interesting the lifegroup will be. Thinking that its okay, he might be late for dinner but he should be there for the actual chairing (communion message and sharing). He can't be that late. So dinner time came, There is a dead fly found in the main dish. Then the person who the chairperson has authorise to chair the lifegroup on his behalf took out a big mug of maybe 1 litres of beer that was left from new year eve. Then that leader called and said that he can't come for lifegroup at all!!!! So it is getting more interesting. No 1, there is no one to do the communion message. No 2, no one else knows about the discussion to share after the dvd. Maybe if the other 2 leaders are around, it won't be that bad, but yesterday lifegroup is just like a 1 man show, either there is something, or there is nothing. During the dvd time, i felt asleep. Sound asleep. So after the dvd, there is just this drop dead, no one know about the things to share, or what is this dvd or lifegroup all about, or what is the take home point. it is just a normal dinner and watching dvd. Someone told me later on the way home, that i snored. It is so funny.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the end of the day, i realised one thing. that i'm a great sinner, more than anyone in the lifegroup.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-5165344118032274191?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/5165344118032274191/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=5165344118032274191' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/5165344118032274191'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/5165344118032274191'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2010/01/first-friday-of-year.html' title='First Friday of the year'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-2880029968410747199</id><published>2010-01-02T20:45:00.003+10:00</published><updated>2010-01-02T21:20:42.268+10:00</updated><title type='text'>2010 New Year Resolution 1 - Go to Beach</title><content type='html'>This 1st Month of 2010 will be the time where i will make my New Year Resolution.&lt;br /&gt;One of them i had decided that is to go to the beach every 3 month.

It is like my small playground for me to explore and play around with. And i also got this game in my facebook that was used to call "Brick Game" at least for my time, i called that game "Brick Game".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realised that my respond to that game isn't as good as in the past. On top of that, i was never good at that game, but just got average scores. This time when playing that game, i learn something interesting for me. I learn the importance of keeping short account.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I learn that in good times, not keeping short account with God doesn't seems to caused any harm but i feel otherwise. Cause when times are challenging or the pressure is on, by not constantly keeping short account might cause me to overwhelm and not able to handle it properly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So i use that principle when i'm playing that game.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-1189965365042500166?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/1189965365042500166/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=1189965365042500166' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1189965365042500166'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1189965365042500166'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/12/learn-to-keep-short-account-with-god.html' title='Learn to keep short account with God'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-5911387064100953353</id><published>2007-11-29T16:16:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-11-29T16:46:51.564+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Giving God full control</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Thinking of blog this down first before i go on and do my things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Someone shared something recently to me and these words actually struck me quite a bit. i need to refocus my perspective. To get the right focus and all the rest of the things around it will seems strangely dim. For the past few months, life had been challenging. Maybe because quite a few people were struggling at that time in one area or another, it actually made what i'm going thru as not even worth to be mention at all. But sometimes, when one thing is not mention at all, it doesn't mean that i had totally deal with it already. At times, when i think i had, but later only to realise that i hadn't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And i realised one area, i didn't fully surrender it to God but still hold tightly to it. It is so tightly that the more i held tightly, the more i will feel the pain or hurt. And ended up, everything is in a mess.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No matter what, God, i still want to choose to give it to you completely 100% and do it Your ways. i know i had fail and stumble a number of times, and my direct leader can testify to that, God, help me to do things Your ways with the limited things that i know.

type='text'>Updates</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Over the past few weeks, i find it a joy to actually hear the audio bible and read the bible online while having my meals. It is such a enjoyable times. :) That's my favourite leisure time. I'm someone who doesn't really like to read, it will take me about 6 months to complete a book that i have interested in, and a few years for books that i'm okay with. And i realised that i still have other people's book in my room which i hadn't been reading for quite some time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And after my meals, i will go online to the seek.com or careerone or jobsearch to look for jobs. I have interesting 2 job interviews so far and 1 more job interview tomorrow. So far the 2 job interviews that i had was very interesting. The first job interview i had was not really a job interview, it is like the company is out there trying to recruit everyone who apply for that job. I didn't really wanted that 1st job interview. Then comes the 2nd job interview, it is very interesting. I feel like i was sitting for an exam during that interview. I was asked to answer a few questions on IT hardware like, what does USB stands for? etc. And after that, i was given a few general questions to answer. I think those general questions are very interesting. It will be a bit too long if i will to share it in this blog. But do ask me, if you want to know what are the questions that they asked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And i realised that my hair is getting a bit too long and messy, so i decided that i will to go and cut me hair. And now, i had came back home with a new haircut. I find that it makes me look younger. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also chat with my close friend back in singapore. Wow, it is like a season where my peers are either attached and married and have kids. I feel happy for my friend who is attached now. And it seems like now they are like waiting for my turn. *Cold Sweat* Hahahaaa, must wait longer. But i really do miss the times when i'm with my friends back in singapore, the crazy but yet fun and unforgetable times. I think i really do miss my close friends in singapore, cause i even have a dream this morning.

Not that i do anything harmful to my body or anything, just that to be honest, over these few years, i hadn't been a good steward of the "temple of God". I had allowed my "reasoning" or excuses for not exercising and really look after my body. And the "reasoning" that i normally used is, "i'm just not an active person or i don't really like sport."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But thru out these few weeks, i really ponder and think about the area of having a healthy lifestyle. It doesn't just restrict to exercise but in every area of my life, even my eatting habits. How i choose to eat certain food and reject the rest, but i must clarify one thing, there are certain type of things that i really don eat, as in i can't stand eatting it. But for the rest which i'm okay with it, and yet choose not to eat those, i must change in that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, now, coming back to exercise, i have come up with a few plans on maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I choose the word "maintaining" cause i think that it is easy to start off and doing it, but it might be challenging to finish it well. That it is not based on a temporary "feeling" or "high" but it is base on "finish the race well". It is not a rule or a law that i had set up, but just plans that i have decided to do from today onwards.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I learn these from a book "Stewardship" which someone had given it to me in 2005 and until now is 2007, then only i have starting to build my conviction in a few aspect of stewardship as mention in that book. I'm very grateful to that person, who had given me that book.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>A resturant with small portion</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;When Pastor Wenan shared yesterday about going into a resturant and serve with a small portion of food. Then i recall about something that happens about 1 year ago. It is very funny when i think about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last year july, to celebrate shepherd's day cum chia yen's birthday, i organised a dinner with chia yen and all her other 4 sheeps. So i booked a place for dinner for the 6 of us. When we reach that resturant in chinatown, which initially i had lead them to the wrong way and had to walk back to the resturant. So when we finally reached the resturant, we ordered 4 dishes and 6 bowls of rice. And each dishes cost about close to $20. So when the food were served, nearly everyone's eyes open very big. I remember one dish which is like a piece of breast meat that is around the size that you brought from coles that is cut into about 10 slices. And i thank God that all chia yen's sheep are very gracious and even chia yen also very gracious to me. Just imagine with me, everyone is like try to eat a small slices of meat with a big mouth full of rice. Oh my gosh, it is one of the most embarrassment moment in my life. And after the dinner, while walking back home, i heard someone asking, "are you full?" then someone said, "can go home and had some instant noodles." Oh my gosh, that is really very embarrassing. Then i said, "next year, it will be a better one." But i guess there had been a few changes made, and the "next year" never really come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But i still believe that one day, i can ask that chia yen for a dinner that will be full in stomach.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-1679383512075676476?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/1679383512075676476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=1679383512075676476' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1679383512075676476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1679383512075676476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/08/resturant-with-small-portion.html' title='A resturant with small portion'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-3103651920113116607</id><published>2007-08-11T19:38:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-08-11T19:58:35.378+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Basketball Experience</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Just now i had the most interesting basketball experience ever. Mmm, just before i begin to share about the basketball experience, i will share a bit of the background first. You see, if you know me, you will know that edna don't like any sport. And for basketball, i had no idea of how to play or how to throw the ball into the hook to goal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Towards end of last semester, i was told that we will be having a basketball every saturday. Okay, that's interesting. I don't know how to play and i know that i'm not good at any sports. Basketball, hmmm... interesting, can't it just be like coffee or something, just sit down and chat and talk, but nope, basketball. So we had basketball on one saturday and have break after that as it is close to exam period. Well, i was the worse in the group, i think if there is any "red card" i will have gotten at least about 5 "red card". But the girls are very gracious towards a beginner like me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So today, it is the third time i played basketball in QLD. Well, i didn't score any goals this time also. And the interesting part is there is two in each team. So when we played the game today, it is either my partner has the ball or i will have the ball, no third person to throw the ball to. And this time, i learn to when i got the ball, i will try to bring the ball closer to the goal and pass the ball to my partner, cause i can't score any goals if i will to attempt to throw the ball and it will ended up wasted the oppportunity to score.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The interesting part is yet to come, after a while we take a break as there were guys who came earlier than us, waiting for us to finish so that they can play basketball. So after a while, another girl comes, she is the friend's friend that i know recently thru ccm, she came and wanted to join us for basketball. But after a short chat, she said, "do you all want to come over to our place for a tea, since now is like tea-time?" then we said, "sure. :)" Both of them are very friendly, and we have some interesting chat at their place like to set up a "food business" and each of us play our part in the "food business".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think i will be seeing them soon again on wednesday when they came over to the babes' house for dinner. Look forward to wednesday as it will be a great time of building friendship and even the possiblity of building friendship that will least forever. :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3103651920113116607?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3103651920113116607/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3103651920113116607' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3103651920113116607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3103651920113116607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/08/basketball-experience.html' title='Basketball Experience'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-1189776232781187618</id><published>2007-08-05T09:48:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-08-05T09:49:22.175+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Tell the storm how BIG God is</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Don't tell God how big your storm is, tell your storm how big God is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This statement keep coming back to me throughout the whole week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone will have his or her storm, once in a while, but how many people can really tell their storm how big God is. So many times in the past, i had allowed the storm in my lives to determine on how i will respond to people, to things, to situations etc. But i learnt one thing, that is it doesn't help at all. In fact, it only makes things worse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the past few weeks, i do feel that i'm inside a storm and it doesn't seems like the storm will stop anytime soon. I'm not going to talk about the storm, which i do realised that storm in people's life is real and it's a struggle to go thru it. That's not my focus. It is not about the storm. It is about the One who has promise never to leave me nor forsake me. That the old had gone and the new has come. Those who hope in the Lord, will renew their strength, they will soar on wings like eagles, they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

As most of us are student, exam time might be one of the most stressful times that we have every year. I normally sleep about 1am and wakes up at 9am everyday. And my brain will be active from 9am onwards. Last semester, my exam timetable was very "bad" i think for me. Cause i had got 3 8am papers. Oh my gosh, when i saw my timetable, then i try to re-adjust my body to try to sleep early and wake up early to prepare myself for the 8am paper. But it just can't work effectively, even with coffee in the morning, my brain is still not active and at night when i wanted to sleep, my brain is very active even when i drink warm milk to try to make myself a bit sleepy, count sheep, i still can't sleep before 12midnight. And the more i force myself, the more tired i became and more i lack of sleep. The whole re-adjust my body to sleep early and wake up early doesn't work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When i know i need to take exam, i prayed that God, if it is possible can it not be 8am paper. Then when exam timetable came out, it is 8am paper, i was like oh my gosh, not again, 8am paper. And this time, it still didn't work for the sleep early and wake up early training that i gave myself. The night before that 8am paper, i slept about 12 plus cause my brain is too active to fall asleep and i tried counting sheep to go to sleep but it doesn't work, until i decided to pray until i fall asleep. And i set my alarm the next day at 6am, so i pull myself to wake up, i did wake up but i know that my brain is still sleeping, so i decided to make a strong coffee that day, and estimate the time i need to leave the house, and realised that i had some time for breadfast, then when i wanted to change to leave the house, i feel a bit sick and vomitted. And after wash up, i rush to the bus stop and reach the bus stop at 7:30am to take a bus to uni, however, when i realised that the time is 7:40am, then it struck me that i had miss the 7:30am bus somehow, and the next bus is at 7:55am according to the timetable, then i started to do some calculation in my mind, and realised that i will reach the exam hall at about 8:10am if the bus will to reach on time at 7:55am. This time, i know that if i will to talk to uni instead of taking bus i will reach the exam hall at 8:15am, even no way. As for that exam, the main challenge in the exam is lack of time, 10min time preusal is very important for that exam. Cause for uq examination, if you are more than 10min late for the exam, you might not be able to take that exam. So, this time, i pray to God, and a peace is in my heart that i can't really explain, cause the situation that i faced with isn't that good. So i choose to believe in God and commit this whole situation into His hand. So the bus came at 7:52am and when i got up the bus, a 3min ride to uni become 5min as the bus drive very carefully with the interested of all the passengers in that bus. So when i got to the uni bus stop, i walk quickly to the exam hall, and when i reach the exam hall, it was 8am and the examiner just closed the door before i can reach the door. Then i open the door to get into the exam hall, then the examiner ask me what subject i'm taking and ask me to go out with her. For a moment, i thought, i'm just only late for 2min max, still able to sit for the exam right? Then when we are outside, she told me, "Somehow, the UQ examination make a mistake, there isn't enough exam paper for my subject and they are going to print it now." She lead me to another room where i saw another 7 of us who are taking that same subject. Then an examiner explain to us that we will be given the same time as the other student who are taking the exam now. And ask us to wait until the exam paper comes. At that time, when everyone outside the room is very stress and wondering why will this type of thing happen, but i'm the only one that is having a smile on my face. Actually i'm quite happy that this situation happen. So in the end i started my exam at 8:45am instead of 8am and ends my exams at 10:25am instead of 9:40am. I was so happy. Cause i did a similar one before, when it starts at 8am and finished at 9:40am, my brain is totally blank until about 9am then only i start to really answer the question more effectively. As i result the first one, i didn't do well for that paper. So this time, when it starts at 8:45am, i actually have more effective time in doing my exam, even this time i will be harder a bit and more challenging questions as compare to the previous one. It is very rare to what i know that exam starts at 8:45am, maybe an exam may starts at 8am or a few min after 8am, if there is some delay in getting as the examiner explain the uni policy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know what will be the outcome of that exam, but i have the peace that in times of trouble and challenges, i will know that my God is with me thru it, as my God is one who really loves and cares for His people. A God that will hears the things the His people made to Him. There is no other God that does that.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3585425292724955598?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3585425292724955598/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3585425292724955598' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3585425292724955598'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3585425292724955598'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/07/exam-testimony.html' title='Exam Testimony'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-7917893040695398644</id><published>2007-07-10T11:17:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-07-10T11:32:48.974+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Judah 2 Getaway</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I enjoy this getaway alot. Just coming together to do team building as ONE in some places can be quite challenging at times in organising it and have a common time where everyone is free and in brisbane.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Above all, i learn alot in during this getaway and being refreshed to continue with the "real" world life. This getaway is like a holiday in God. For those who do something for that getaway, thank you for making this getaway a success.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When i reached there the first night, i'm waiting in expectation that God will move in our mist as the presence of God can be so evidently during the first night worship session. And the second day of the getaway, from morning QT until night time games, i learn and encourage so much. It will be a long blog entry if i will to record everything that i learn and encourage during these few days, as i'm quite a detailed person that will thru every single details and make sure that nothing is missing. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So here i will just share one area of the funny thing that happens. During the last night, we are all playing my favourite game "Murder" and the loser will have to do a "banana dance on the street". So during that game, 2 "murders" wins and the rest of us were to do the banana dance on the street. It was very cold that time, and we quickly do the banana dance with Matt doing the demo at the same time. But after that banana dance, the 2 winners, Suni and Lem, wanted us to do it again. Then the rest of us gathered together and discuss on how to get back on Suni and Lem. So we decided that the girls are going after Suni and the guys after Lem. So when they said start, then we will all ran towards them and try to get them. So Suni ran when all the girls that are doing the banana dance ran after her, and i was one of them, then we manage to catch her and we gave a some "ticker" to get back on her. Which later when we heard what the guys attempt to do to Lem, i feel that we are too kind to Suni. But during that time, all of us had a great time laughing and having fun.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had decided to put as much as possible of the things that i had learn into practise in the "real" world. And most of it, i will discuss with shep about how to apply what i had learnt from the getaway back in the "real" world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-7917893040695398644?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/7917893040695398644/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=7917893040695398644' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/7917893040695398644'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/7917893040695398644'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/07/judah-2-getaway.html' title='Judah 2 Getaway'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-2649966407457543721</id><published>2007-07-02T09:40:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-07-03T09:17:41.579+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Shrek the Third</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Last few days, i went movie with a friend of mine to see "Shrek the Third".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just thought of blog down a few things that i learn from that movie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;If people said that you are bad, it may not mean that you are bad.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The thing that stop you from becoming who you are, most of the time is yourself.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sometimes you just can't see things from the surface, at times when people might do something that you thought is bad, which they actually do it out of love and to protect you.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The strength of unity if we can don't focus too much on ourselves but focus more on the group.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Sometimes fear of something might be due to a past experience which might not be a real fear if we have the correct perspective.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;People who are "young" might be look at things base on the "appearance" which can be dangerous.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;Disclaimer: this is just my personal opinion of what i learn from that movie.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-2649966407457543721?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/2649966407457543721/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=2649966407457543721' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/2649966407457543721'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/2649966407457543721'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/07/shrek-third.html' title='Shrek the Third'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-1848640324657576565</id><published>2007-06-06T01:20:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-06-06T01:30:37.397+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Things i learnt best</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I'm just reflecting today on how do i learn things, so as to be as effective in studying for the exam as possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm doing online quiz for a subject that i can have multiple attempts, so i did it as a revision for that subject. Then i decided that i'm going to get full mark if not i will continue doing it until i got full mark. "No full mark, no stop". Interesting, after a few hours of looking thru the textbook and lecture notes a few times, as i didn't get full mark for the first attempt that i did. Some of the quiz i do it for 5 to 6 times. There is a trend, the first quiz will take me about 1 hour, second quiz also about 1 hour, third quiz about 40min, and the more i did, the faster i'm able to solve the quiz. But i must admit that some of the questions are repeated but on average out of 10 questions, maybe i can find 2 questions that i had the answer, the rest of the 8 questions, i will have to do it myself again. Expect for the 6 attempts, maybe i have 5 out of 10 questions with answered. But even so, the rest of the questions that i didn't have the answer, i will find it easier to do. Unless it is some reading that i must read from the textbook to get the answer, if not, i will be able to do it reasonably fast. I also realised as i'm doing the quiz, where is my weakest topic in that subject.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now i finally understand one simple logic, "You learn best at the things that you keep trying and don't give up." I think if things are very simple and easy, i will not be able to truely learn it. Maybe i'm someone who learn things thru the hard way. Or is it because the number of times that i had try had made me able to understand and know where is the common mistake and to avoid it in the future?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think my mind is going to sleep soon. It has been a long and fruitful day. Good night everyone.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-1848640324657576565?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/1848640324657576565/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=1848640324657576565' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1848640324657576565'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1848640324657576565'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/06/things-i-learnt-best.html' title='Things i learnt best'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-3042213759530512093</id><published>2007-06-05T10:04:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-06-06T23:17:01.525+10:00</updated><title type='text'>I really care</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Through these few months, i asked myself, how much do i really care for those that i know, those that are close to me. While i'm not sure about the answer in my heart, if i really do care for them or not, i didn't know how to respond but avoid. There are few of them that i tried to have lesser conversation, interaction if possible. Everyone standard of care and concern is different, some might be higher than others, some might be easily met, but for me, i think i'm someone who has quite a high expectation when it comes to care or concern part. It is like you either really care or "just getting a day past by without any trouble".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I realised one thing over the past few weeks, that i do really care. Even though most of the times it is not expressed in the way i hope it to be, but i do really care for everyone. I care not because that i'm a caring person, i care because God has first care for me. In actual fact, i think i do struggle sometimes in that area.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last night, i wanted to sleep very badly, but somehow i wasn't. Either because there were really a lot of things that was going through my mind or my interesting neighbour testing on the different ringtones. A very very dear sister ask me to "count sheeps" maybe that can help me to sleep. So i did as what i was told. I go and count sheeps. Then i realised that i never able to count sheeps beyond a certain number. Then i will start all over again with 1 sheep. And it happens for a few times and i start all over again with 1 sheep. Without realising it, i fell asleep. That's one of the good way of falling asleep that is to count sheeps. I know it works, or at least it does work for me. :)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3042213759530512093?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3042213759530512093/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3042213759530512093' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3042213759530512093'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3042213759530512093'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/06/i-really-care-for-them.html' title='I really care'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-7298252337523852783</id><published>2007-05-26T19:51:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-05-26T20:11:46.873+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Perfume Taste AWFUL</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This morning, i woke up and had iced coffee milk. Shortly later, i got myself ready to go to my friend's place for keyboard lesson. After i got myself ready, changed and everything ready to go, then i put some perfume. Ahahaaaa, this is the beginning of the boo-boo thing that i had done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After i stray the perfume very close to myself, i used my fingers the fingers that i used to stray the perfume and take a sweet to eat. Then i realised that that sweet tasted a bit funny and strange. But i still continue taking that sweet. After about 1 min or so, i suddenly realised, "Wait a min", something is very strange with the sweet, only then that i realised something inside said that throw that sweet away, it has perfume in it. Then i think for another 15 seconds to myself, why will there be perfume in that sweet, then i recalled, that immediately after spraying the perfume, i used the same fingers to take that sweet while my fingers still had the moisture of the perfume. Then i immdiately go to the kitchen and throw away that sweet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then i came back to my room wanting to drink some water to clear away the perfume taste in my mouth, by the way, it taste very awful and disgusting. But before i can drink any water, i can't control myself and vomited. And i vomited the milk on my clothes and some in the toilet. Oh my gosh, the vomited milk smell very awful. Can't imagine how can parent handle baby when they vomited milk, must be a difficult task to even clean up that vomited milk. Okay, back to the story, i felt horrible now with the vomited milk in my clothes and my bag, and i getting late for the keyboard lesson. Then i quickly change and wash up a bit, and go to the keyboard class. After the keyboard class, i'm thinking to myself, maybe having a bit of perfume in my stomach isn't that bad, maybe i vomited because of my gastric. So when i came back home, i had some instant noodles firstly to had my lunch, secondly to try to get rid of the taste feeling in my month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But after having my lunch, i feel my stomach is very strange. Then i chat with someone on msn, telling her about the perfume situation. Then she said that i had been food poisoning. Then after she and another of my friend recommends that i shouldn't take any food at the moment and drink lot of water. Then i drink quite a bit of water and i went to rest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After when i woke up, i feel much better. But i went to toilet a few times, i think it is due to the water that i drank. But i feel that it is good. I need water to clean up my stomach.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After this incident, i had came out with a few conclusion.&lt;br /&gt;No 1: Perfume taste AWFUL.&lt;br /&gt;No 2: Do NOT use your hands to take food UNLESS you know that your hands are reasonable clean.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-7298252337523852783?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/7298252337523852783/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=7298252337523852783' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/7298252337523852783'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/7298252337523852783'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/05/perfume-taste-awful.html' title='Perfume Taste AWFUL'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-7546644764285741532</id><published>2007-05-07T21:36:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-05-07T22:07:38.852+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Girls Night</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Last night, it is fun. We had girls dvd night. I think we start watching the first dvd at about 5 min to 12midnight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is fun, not just because of the movie itself, but the opportunity to actually come together as a small group to watch a movie and have some fellowship together. Maybe because of my language of love on normal situation is "Time", i do treasure the time that i had with the people around me. We chat about a few interesting topics, but as mention that we will keep what is mention during that time within the group. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think as times goes by, it is hard and hard to have gathering. Someone share this with me before, "You will never really know one person until you are willing to sit down and have a meal with that person. And keep it to not more than 5 people including yourself". Well it is quite true, i can have know a person for a few years but end up not really know that person.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How to encourage? How to build up? How to support? are some of the questions that i constantly wanting to learn of new and more effective ways of doing it. Cause it is to do with people and people matters because God loves them.

As i had learnt the whole area of fasting and the reasons, motive, attitude of fasting. I think introduction to fasting if being taught in shepherding will be like a solid 1.5 hours shepherding lesson. This blog entry that i wrote now is not going to talk about fasting. But it will be talking more about my next level of understanding of God's Holiness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Understanding God's holiness, i don't quite understand but i actually grow in my fear for God as well. Not really sure of the exact link to that. And i also came into greater realisation that cannot "play play" with God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I recalled that last few years, when i just came to realised that God is a holy God. At the time, i'm so scared. Cause i know that God knows everything, what is seen in action and what is unseen by man like what's going on in the heart. During that time, i'm so scared that i remembered, every time i did my quiet time, i will only want to talk to Jesus, the Great Shepherd, maybe because of the understanding that i had during that time that Jesus is a caring Shepherd who will care for His sheep. I will actually told Jesus that i scared to talk to the Father. He is so very holy and He will surely be very angry with me, cause i'm so sinful, not so much of the action but in my heart and my mind. I also don't dare to tell anyone about it during that time. Then about a few weeks later, during one sunday altarcall, someone prayed for me and said something and it hits the bull's eye.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This time, i learn about the holiness of God. My first respond is that God, i had sinned so much in the past and still fall short so much. I was reminded about the full characteristics of God and not just one characteristic of God. Yes, God is a holy God but at the same time God is also a God of love and grace. I need to learn how to rely more on God's love, grace and mercy. Focus only on one of the character of God, i think is no good. God, help me to be able to walk in Your grace at the same time to live a life that You had called me to and constantly aware of who You are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just think it might be good to end off with a lighter note so that when i read my blog in the future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jeremiah 29:10 to 14&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;10&lt;/span&gt; This is what the LORD says: "When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my gracious promise to bring you back to this place.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;11 &lt;/span&gt;For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;12&lt;/span&gt; Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;13&lt;/span&gt; You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;14&lt;/span&gt; I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-8521863280569314082?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/8521863280569314082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=8521863280569314082' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/8521863280569314082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/8521863280569314082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/04/holy-holy-holy-is-lord-almighty.html' title='Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord Almighty'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-3351351399554983629</id><published>2007-04-03T11:17:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-04-03T11:39:10.179+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Faithfulness of God</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Last night i had a lesson about Faithfulness of God. Wanted to blog in down to share with everyone what i had learn from that lesson, a lesson that changes a bit of how i view faithfulness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Initially i always thought that to be faithful is to do everything that i was told to do and to do them to the best of ability that i know of. But later i realised recently only, that faithfulness is not just about doing, actually it is not about the doing part but more about our heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next thing that challenge me before the lesson about faithfulness is how faithful am i towards the Word of God. Did i faithful enough to God to allow His words to change my heart, my perspective, my everything? Or did i just stored it in my memory? If i will to be faithful, i should be first be faithful unto the Word of God, allowing it to change my heart, action, perspective and everything. Then the next thing come to my mind is that, i'm not able to do that knowing that i'm a sinful man.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After that lesson, i had a new perspective of faithfulness. Without looking at the notes that i had written but based on what is in my heart or my growing conviction about faithfulness. I know that i can be faithful to God because He is the first one who is faithful to us. He is the first one who initiated His love and faithfulness to us, not the other way round. Most of the time i'm the one who unfaithful to Him and fail to realised His unfailing love and faithfulness who is always there for me, if i'm willing to turn back from my ways and to follow Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To Him be glorified in Christ Jesus Our Lord.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3351351399554983629?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3351351399554983629/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3351351399554983629' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3351351399554983629'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3351351399554983629'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/04/faithfulness-of-god.html' title='Faithfulness of God'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-522362872060615712</id><published>2007-03-29T18:46:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-03-29T19:11:31.769+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Busy month ahead</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;Just doing my planning after i had done one the last time for my summer.

It is like if i'm able to complete 1 full topic a day, i will be able to meet the deadlines for everything. With 1 or 2 days rest for the whole month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, things are piling up before i came back from singapore. Missing 2 weeks of uni really means quite a lot. From the look of it, my mind tells me that it will be a challenging semester ahead. But the only thing i can do is to do my best with what i'm given.

One way is thru praying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these years, i always had this one big struggle. Last few days, toward the closing a group shepherd, the person teaching the shepherding lesson ask everyone to pray. I think HS bring me to a verse. When i read that verse, i was in total shock for a moment. Telling God that it is something that my biggest struggle that no one knows, not that i purposely don't want to share it but just that i kept forgetting to let anyone who is shepherding me know. At that point, i acknowledge that yes God, i did struggle with that a lot where in my highest period or lowest period that fear always came to me. When it hits, it really hit hard on me. I realised how much i need God's grace and mercy to be able to truely said what Paul had mention in that verse. I really do want to be able to said what Paul had mentioned in that verse that is my heart desire all these years and even for the years to come, that will still be my heart desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A partial or subjective obedient is disobedient. A partial or subjective submission is not submission. A partial or subjective accountablity is not being accountable. I want to be totally obedient to Your Word, a full submission to Your appointed ones and a full accountability to Your annointed ones especially to Your direct appointed annointed one.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3035250168821252487?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3035250168821252487/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3035250168821252487' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3035250168821252487'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3035250168821252487'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/03/listening-to-god.html' title='Listening to God'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-2316531433597962475</id><published>2007-03-17T23:02:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-03-17T23:29:11.135+10:00</updated><title type='text'>A new way of looking at S Day</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;My S day is coming soon. Every year i had different experiences with my S day. This year, before it comes, i had decided to blog my thoughts down first.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember the first S day that i had, i can see the joy in a few people's face. A joy that cannot be fake out. I remembered clearly that most of the people in my caregroup including me go to the subway at hawken drive.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My second S day, my first caregroup leader send me an sms wishing me to grow in God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My third S day, my ex-shepherd gave me a card. Encouraging me to grow and experienced His unfailing love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My forth S day, had a chat with my ex-shepherd and let her hold me accountable for this, "i'm convicted that God love me and He never leave me nor forsake me." That at any point in time, especially when i don't feel like it is the truth, to remind me about what i had said that "God love me and never leave me nor forsake me". At the same day, there is a group of student who sang "Happy Birthday" song. Not to me but to their friend, who happened to be celebrating the birthday at that day and that moment. At the moment, my heart is a bit "melted". As i'm thinking that i did so many bad things and wrong things, so unworthy of any care or concern by anyone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now come my fifth S day soon. This year, i decided to make a bit of changes to the way i view S day. In the past few years, i'm always looking for how i want or wish my shepherd or leader to encourage me or bless my heart. But this year, i want to be a blessing to the people that God has placed in my life. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-2316531433597962475?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/2316531433597962475/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=2316531433597962475' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/2316531433597962475'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/2316531433597962475'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/03/new-way-of-looking-at-s-day.html' title='A new way of looking at S Day'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-2228295447732649721</id><published>2007-02-23T13:48:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-02-23T14:03:30.129+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Intelligent Baby Issac</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;During end of Jan, it was the first time i met Issac Sim.

People started to go back home as it was getting late. Then they started to said "bye bye"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think baby issac actually understand the word "bye bye".

If anyone who read this blog will not be able to understand and doesn’t make sense. But I just wanted to record this down to remain myself about the commitment that I had made.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This morning when I do my normal quiet time, I feel that it is time to “move on”. Move on to what to where? I had no much idea or knowledge of how to. But Move on is something that speak so clearly in my heart. And I decided right then that I will move on. Things in the past will remain in the past as a form of memory or lessons learned and move on ahead. This verse came to me, “Letting go of what is behind and moving ahead to what is to come”.

I recently realised that i'm someone who can booked airticket and fly to other place in a very short notices given. Sometimes i think i actually shock certain ones with my sudden decision.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Going back to singapore during March is expected and planned long time ago, but going back for CNY is not planned at all. I'm not sure if i had done the most effective thing by going back for CNY and extend my stay until mid March but i know in my heart that the motives of doing it is that i feel it might be the most effective to go back and spend some time with my family and friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It will be a very fun and fruitful holiday back home i believe. In my mind, i already had some ideas of how to spend each day to its fullness. I do look forward to the people back home rather than food cause what goes into my stomach as food will come out in a matter of days. But people are more valuable than anything in this world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing that i know is that my Shepherd will be with me throughout this time even as i'm about to face one of my greatest fear soon.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-1591020227189605926?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/1591020227189605926/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=1591020227189605926' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1591020227189605926'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/1591020227189605926'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2007/01/holiday.html' title='Holiday'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-3187655406000927564</id><published>2007-01-06T22:39:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2007-01-06T23:17:08.343+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Tax Law Question</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;I'm currently doing my summer semester. And the subject that i am currently undertaking is Tax Law.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a very interesting subject to me. Something that interest me is the area of renting out property and how it is being taxed on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I came across this point in my lecture notes that states how some rent money received are not consider as rental income and it will not be taxed on. For example, "Homestay" and when "Owner of the residence permits persons to share it on the basis that all the occupants, including the owner, bear an appropriate proportion of the cost actually incurred like electricity, etc". Then later in the lecture, i came across Capital Gain Tax. And i got a bit confuse, cause it mention that we will be taxed on the property that we sold the proportion which we used it as a form of income. Cause in one of the tutorial questions, there is a question about a man who wanted to sell the property that he had been staying. That property had been used for several purposes and one of them is renting one of the rooms to a student. The answer is that it is a rental income and will have CGT implication.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Strange right? In the earlier lecture it mention that it is not rental income and will not be accessable. Then later, it mention that when you sold the property, it will be assessable as it was consider as a rental income. Or is it because the tutorial question didn't mention that the owner actually did share the appropriate proportion of the cost that incurred like electricity? That's why it falls under rental income.

I don't quite like dog but i'm scare of wild dogs. Cause i feel that it can be very crazy and out of control sometimes. Since it didn't go through any training or it will not obey to anyone. Some people might like dog who train or obey to the master, but i don't think there will be that much people who will like wild dog that no one knows what it will do the next moment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That struck me a bit. Realising the importance of actually obeying to God and everything that God has instructed. It is not just obeying because i have to but obeying because i want to be train to walk in His ways. It is not very pleasant all the times, especially if i'm being discipline but it is required and good for me. God help me to continue to obey &lt;strong&gt;everything&lt;/strong&gt; that you said.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-82223598432863739?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/82223598432863739/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=82223598432863739' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/82223598432863739'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/82223598432863739'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2006/11/importance-of-obedience.html' title='Importance of Obedience'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-5354825435363218854</id><published>2006-11-05T12:28:00.002+10:00</published><updated>2006-11-05T12:31:30.351+10:00</updated><title type='text'>My keyboard</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;My keyboard has arrived last few days. It is a simple keyboard with is the best i could have now to learn keyboard. Someone asked me, "Are  you learning keyboard or guitar now?" I'm learning both. I don't think i will ever stop learning keyboard or guitar, there is always so many ways to improve myself no matter how many songs i can play. Cause in the beginning of the year when i finally took up the guitar that i had for birthday present (which is the best present i ever had) and really get serious with it and practice it everyday for a few minutes at least until sometimes i can't really feel my fingers, it has became that hard and rough. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;During that time, i had made up my mind that any instrument that i pick up or learn i will treat it as a form of expressing how good God is. I remembered the first time when i played during the pre-cg prayer. Oh my gosh, i had no idea what M's fingering means. At that moment, i'm thinking in my head, what does M's little finger means. Then i just continue playing and wait for M to sing the first word so that i will know what is the meaning of M's little finger. After that first experience, i learn something new, "little finger" means "last line". So the first time, i only strum down and try to go with the beat of the song.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second time was an experience that i feel like "dug a hole and hid myself inside it until the whole song ends". I start learning how to strum. But somehow, the strumming and the changing of chords is not the same as how everyone was singing. It is either i change too fast or change too slow until they must pause a bit to wait for me to see when i will change the chord. That is quite stressful. In my mind i think, i don't think the leader will ever put in to play for prayer, cause i'm so bad at guitar. I remember that night, i went back and had a good talk with God. After that talk, I made up my mind no matter what the outcome is, no matter how good or how bad i played, i will still use guitar as a form of expressing how great and wonderful God is. So in my own quiet time, i still play the guitar and pray. At times, i think to myself, will God actually don't like it cause i'm really bad at guitar, will He find it a noisy? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then i remember someone shared one thing in church before, that &lt;em&gt;God is like a Father who will sit beside a kid who try to play a keyboard, even though that kid is playing one finger and pressing one key at the time, the Father comes and sit beside that kid and played the fill in chords and made it a beautiful music&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then i made a simple prayer before God, that let me be like that kid who with what i know play a song to Him and let him comes in and complete the whole song. But at the same time, i hope that one day i can made a song out of my heart and able to play it out for Him, and that send someone to teach me how to play guitar, so that this might be possible. And God answered my prayer to send someone to teach me. Different ones taught me at different stages.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When i was roster down to play to cg or prayer, especially cg, i will feel very inadequate cause i don want to because of my lack of skill in guitar that cause the P&amp;W leader to be stressful of what songs to choose that they feel that God might want to speak to His people through it. So first thing, i continue to maintain my relationship with God even though i admit sometimes i'm quite "naughty" and secondly i practice guitar to the best of ability that i know of. Not sure if it is working well or not, i will evaluate myself maybe end of the year. I think i heard from someone before that as a musician the most important aspect is to have a close relationship with God and the second aspect is to support the P&amp;W leader to lead His people closer to Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now that my keyboard has just arrived, in my heart i wanted to be able to learn the keyboard well at the same time still practice on my guitar cause my guitar is still quite bad. Not because there isn't anyone who can played in the cg in fact there are quite a number of talented musical in the mist who played much better than me in all ways. I had made up my mind and heart a quite sometimes ago when i just started learning guitar that whether or not i will to play in prayer or cg, i will not stop using guitar to worship God in my quiet time with him. Cause i really really wanted to be like that kid who is with the Father when he or she play the limited random key and the Father will come and sit beside that kid.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-5354825435363218854?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/5354825435363218854/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=5354825435363218854' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/5354825435363218854'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/5354825435363218854'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2006/11/my-keyboard.html' title='My keyboard'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-3465973598796936594</id><published>2006-11-05T12:28:00.001+10:00</published><updated>2006-11-05T12:28:33.895+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Sdyney Trip</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="justify"&gt;This is a picture of me taken in sydney during the september term break this year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4798/4089/400/3%20Sydney.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4036514640927660757-3465973598796936594?l=ednateo.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/feeds/3465973598796936594/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=4036514640927660757&amp;postID=3465973598796936594' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3465973598796936594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/4036514640927660757/posts/default/3465973598796936594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ednateo.blogspot.com/2006/11/sdyney-trip.html' title='Sdyney Trip'/><author><name>ET</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08436839652481310163</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4036514640927660757.post-7037446106101768039</id><published>2006-11-05T11:49:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2006-11-05T12:13:24.694+10:00</updated><title type='text'>My first blog about myself</title><content type='html'>I'm starting this blog to tell others about myself.
