Obama.

Hmm.. I wonder how the world is gonna change now that Barack Obama is elected the next president of the United States. "Change has come to America", he says. I wonder what kind of changes are gonna take place, and I really hope that it'll be for the good. Some of the guys at the shop in Penisula Plaza that I just went sounded really optimistic about Obama being President, with the exception of one who said it wouldn't affect us anyway. To that one dude who said that, I think you should know better that anything that affects America affects the rest of the world, Singapore included, and I'm not just talking about economics here.

I've gotten considerably better from my flu, and I really hope the flu bug won't bug me anytime soon, simply because it really stinks to be sick; you can't do almost about everything properly. Mom just came back from a trip to China, so it's good to see her around again.

I've began helping out in the Boy's Brigade Ministry in church, and it really brings back a lot of fond memories that i had as a boy 4 years ago. I met such nice friends and had so much fun during the 4 years of activities in BB. With that in mind, I really hope to bring that kind of mentality to the Boy's Brigade Ministry, the mentality of being able to make great friends and to have fun in the Brigade, because that was what I enjoyed as a boy. Wen Zheng passed me a book about the founder William Alexander Smith, and it is rather motivating reading about how he founded the Brigade as well as his character. It is rather ironic that I only managed to have better understanding of the founder at this point of time rather than 4 years ago. I guess you can never be too late to gain such knowledge :o)

The Departed is such a good movie! I have watched it quite a number of times on DVD already, and I still freaking love it to bits!! Leonardo Di Carpio and Jack Nicholson really played their characters with so much intensity in the movie, and you don't really get many movies like that recently. Gosh, I can watch it over and over again, and i can't get sick of it.
