This is how I often feel when working out in the gym:
You’ll be able to relate if you’re as weak as I am. Good times, though!
On an unrelated note, so my quiet year in Tauranga has come to a close.
It certainly felt fast. Oh well, thanks lots for everything, guys and girls – time for me to move on now!
Happy 2010, everyone!
Kaitorete Spit, South Island
We went around both of NZ’s North and South Islands.
New Zealand indeed has some epic sceneries! Nature is awe-inspiring.
Mr. G needed a coronary artery bypass operation – he had all three of his major coronary arteries critically stenosed from atherosclerosis, and was getting crescendo angina from this.
It took more than a long fortnight of wait in the hospital before he was finally scheduled to undergo the operation the following week. The consultant cardiologist and I went to see him that Monday to tell him the good news of the confirmed operation date, but Mr. G surprised us completely.
He started off painting a rather awkward atmosphere talking about scars and the cross, then later declined the operation, politely but adamantly. He told us a friend from church had visited him over the weekend, and over prayer he now felt different – he was convinced that he has been spiritually healed.
“I have faith. Give me the chance to prove to you that I am right,” he said with a smile.
And I stood there – on my left was the consultant who didn’t immediately know how to respond from a cardiologist role, and on my right the patient whose claim couldn’t be explained easily with human wisdom.
At that moment, I suddenly wasn’t sure who to root for…
I have been thinking about it.
Old (top) to new (bottom) - is this all I've drawn?!! =_=
It is amazing to realize this blog is a project five years old and still going. Putting this collage together was somewhat nostalgic...!
I’ve moved over from my old livejournal blog. In the process, I read through some of my old, old posts. Indeed, browsing through them is like taking a little trip back in time – unknowingly I would already be reading entries from three or four years ago! Some things change a lot, and some things change a little.
This blog is now powered by the poetry of Wordpress (and I had good fun designing the new layout and problem-solving with html, css, and php!). I figured it was time to get a domain of my own too after years of having my photos, drawings, and websites on various hosts. I’m obviously still taking my sweet time dreaming of the main page of tablecolorworks.com (there’ll probably be nothing till next year haha).
For the record, anything below this post is imported from my old livejournal blog, including all comments.
Have a look around and make sure you leave a comment! I’ll be updating soon.
oming to you
