蒙恩使女 MV Shooting 第一部

昨天在一個沒有聚會的星期五晚上, 強哥, Tony, Will 和我一起去 Cheesecake Factory 吃晚餐, 強哥還請我們看電影 "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". 一部很難懂也很難笑的電影, 真希望我能懂所謂美國俗語. 所以嘍, 我們一直到晚上一兩點才到家. 結果沒想到... 本來要和 Maggie 一起做風箏一起去放的星期六, 我竟忘了和堯堯約定要幫蒙恩使女拍照. 一早八點堯堯打電話來, 我和 Will 起不來, 其實我們該七點到 Lyon St and Broadway St. Will 和我到的時候愣住了, 這次他們真的是大手筆喔! 因為有四位美女在很大的化妝 Bus 上向我們招手, 也有一群來自舊金山最棒的藝術學院學生來幫忙, 連場記的都有哩. 我想這次是玩真的了~ 我們拍了超多的照片, 卻也等了很久, 因為 the stylist 一直沒到, 所有衣服和造型都在她那裡. 我們一直到中午才正式來過, 錄了幾個 takes. 時間飛逝, 我們要到第二個點 Pier 7 時, 已經 4:30PM. 所以我和 Will 就走了. 沒想到他們沒有拍的二個場景~ 因為~~~ 剛把機器架好就被趕走, 他們說沒有申請也可以偷拍~但今天比較衰! 我和 Will 一回到家就趕場, Dean 終於回來灣區, 而且還帶了一為美驕娘喔. 晚上是他的喜宴. 在 San Bruno 一間叫鴻麟的餐廳. 等回到家真的是像 Sophie 說的雙腳好像不是自己的, 累到很想撞牆! hehehe.... 我今天 shoot 了一千多張照片吧, 敬請期待嘍~~~

千萬份感謝給我最親愛的妹妹, Sydney

當我收到 Sydney 寄的生日卡時, 煞那間覺得好想念家裡每一個人. 我很感謝主雖然離開家很有五六年了, 還是會特別特別想家, 並且讓我們弟兄姊妹都長大時, 我們的關係還是這麼這麼的緊. 尤其神的愛就一直緊緊托住我們. 真的覺的要好好珍惜. 當我昨天聽到一個見證眼淚就不由自主嘩啦嘩啦的流個不停. 想到自己婚禮的腳步漸漸近了, 也就不可能再搬回家住. 回頭看才感覺到和爸爸媽媽用心的為我們家裡每一個小孩所花的心思, 真的很不容易. 那長闊高深的愛, 唯有在基督裡真是不容易在找到了. 我相信我會一直辛福下去, 因為神讓威廉細心體貼的照顧我. 我已覺得足夠了. 但我知神還會祝福更多更多. 有神真好!

價格別人決定, 價值自己創造

在職場工作,薪水問題實在無可避免,尤其新到一個工作環境,雖然嘴上總是以遵照公司規定來表示自己是守制度,但是心理很少有人真正不在乎薪水高低。

日前,某公司招募業務,有一個人資歷顯赫,真的請他來,因此即使請他面談,都不報太大的希望。面談時,就很誠實的跟他說,依據公司規定,並不能給予太高的薪水,原本想就此打住,免得浪費彼此的時間;沒想到他竟然接受這個不到他原來工作薪水一半的條件,真有點喜出望外。開始上班之後,也沒有任何出身大企業所產生不好的習性,準時上班,工作日報表填寫清楚,又勤跑客戶,過了不久,想當然他的業績遠遠超乎同儕,於是在最短的時間內,首度破格晉升,而且大幅度的加薪;自此,他也更加的賣力,為公司創造更多的業績。
原來他在前一個公司已做到一級主管,工作相當順手,薪水十分滿意,原以為可以就此衣食無虞的過一生,沒想到公司一次海外投資失敗,老闆避走國外,讓他們連帶受累,哭訴無門。其間,他也曾經因為薪水無法與自己所要求的相符而怨天尤人,總認為自己是懷才不遇,別的老闆都不識貨,但在經歷一段時間的挫折與沉澱之後,他選擇重新出發,重新體認到價值與價格的差異點。

他認為,價格是別人給的,隨時可以拿走;價值卻是自己創造的,任誰也無法帶走。 他一直在用實際的行動創造自己的價值,雖然公司只能付出部份的價格來僱用他,不過這已是能給的最高限度;但他所帶給公司的價值,絕對是金錢無法衡量的。

"The Purpose Driven Life"

A few days ago, I started my journey with purpose...hehehe...that means I commited the next 40 days of my life to discovering God's purpose for my life. Yes, I am talking about this book "The Purpose Driven Life" by Rick Warren. Since these days I keep thinking about my thesis project, and I think this book will help a lot. It all starts with God...everything got started in him and finds its purpose in him, it is not about me. God doesnt play dice, and we are not just an accident. How could I do something for him and help this society? Pray for me, brothers and sisters.

The Days of Noah

挪亞方舟,數千年來冰封於亞拉臘山絕嶺之上,是人類歷史上最神秘之謎團。一個庫爾德族人隱藏四代的秘密,揭開方舟藏身地。歷史上首隊華人探險隊進入絕密軍事禁地,最近距離拍攝;製作隊於亞拉臘山4200米的超自然經歷,獨家片段全球曝光!為揭示方舟與洪水滅世之謎,本片走遍美國、加拿大、以色列、澳洲、埃及、秘魯、中國、日本等多國,並親訪無數專家學者,並多次遠赴土耳其亞拉臘山一帶,搜集一切有關方舟證據。當日洪水滅世時,上帝為挪亞一家預備方舟逃避大洪水。水退後,上帝與挪亞立虹為記,永遠也不會以洪水?滅世界。方舟再現,究竟帶來什麼啟示?21世紀的今日,聖經預言逐一應驗。昔日方舟成為人類的希望,今日復活的基督會否成為人類的方舟呢?希望你能與親友一同觀賞這套既真實,亦充滿啟示的電影。

So many cakes these weeks~ Yami...

Until today we had 6 cakes these weekends...muhahaha...yami...
短短兩個禮拜吃了六個蛋糕, 肥夠了, 哈哈! Will 的生日是 April 26 也就是下禮拜二. 這幾個禮拜我們才知道我們生活周遭有這麼多的弟兄姊妹和朋友對我們的愛, 真的很感謝主! 其實每年我們都在想生日要怎麼過, 卻在今年沒特別安排, 神就親自差派天使來為我們祝福. 昨天威廉的媽媽和弟弟特地買了芋頭紅豆蛋糕和好吃的大滷麵, 晚上 Andrew 和 Majorie 的 House Warming Party 他們又特地準備了綠茶蛋糕~ 我好像比威廉還要高興, 因為好多好多的蛋糕吃 hehehe... 他也阻止不了我啦~

靠著那加給我力量的凡事都能!

最近神一直給我一句話, 那就是“靠著那加給我力量的凡事都能!”. 我想神要加添我每天的力量, 因為最近我感覺對學校和教會有很多的負擔, 而且身心疲累. 但我一直找充電的方法, 唯一的方法就是神的話. 我已經花了四五天整天的時間做我的喜帖, 每次我在做的時候我會聽 Good TV 的觸動心懸, 這時就有很多的感觸, 有走過外遇風暴, 有從吸毒走出來的, 有從死裡得醫治, 從創傷裡得釋放, 也有神如何使用低能的孩子, 使聾啞的能聽見... 這些讓我想到我的生命. 神要我做的是甚麼, 我生命的目的是甚麼? Graphic Design 能為神做甚麼? 除了能讓人認識神, 又要如何能幫助到需要幫助的人. 或許蒙恩使女是一個出發點, 它讓我覺得對神的國有份. 但也希望神能讓我做更大的事. 我漸漸知道神讓一個人的生活真的可以有深度, 而且是很深很深無法測量的深度, 那就是祂所創造的奧秘.

A Soulful Relationship

A Soulful Relationship
by Reverend Ronald McFadden
If you're not married yet, share this with a friend. If you are married, share it with your spouse or other married couples.. and reflect on it.
An African proverb states, "Before you get married, keep both eyes open, and after you marry, close one eye." Before you get involved and make a commitment to someone, don't let lust, desperation, immaturity, ignorance, pressure from others or a low self-esteem make you blind to warning signs. Keep your eyes open, and don't fool yourself that you can change someone or that what you see as faults aren't really important. Once you decide to commit to someone, over time their flaws, vulnerabilities, pet peeves, and differences will become more obvious. If you love your mate and want the relationship to grow and evolve, you've got to learn to close one eye and not let every little thing bother you.
You and your mate have many different expectations, emotional needs, values, dreams, weaknesses, and strengths. You are two unique individuals who have decided to share a life together. Neither of you are perfect, but are you perfect for each other? Do you bring out the best of each other? Do you compliment and compromise with each other, or do you compete, compare, and control? What do you bring to the relationship? Do you bring past relationships, past hurt, past mistrust, past pain?You can't take someone to the altar to alter him or her. You can't make someone love you or make someone stay. If you develop self-esteem, spiritual discernment, and "a life", you won't find yourself making someone else responsible for your happiness or responsible for your pain. Manipulation, control, jealousy, neediness, and selfishness are not the ingredients of a thriving, healthy, loving and lasting relationship.
Seeking status, sex, wealth, and security are the wrong reasons to be in a relationship. What keeps a relationship strong? Communication, intimacy, trust, a sense of humor, sharing household tasks, some getaway time without business or children and daily exchanges (a meal, shared activity, a hug, a call, a touch, a note). Leave a nice message on their voicemail or send a nice email. Sharing common goals and interests. Growth is important. Grow together, not away from each other, giving each other space to grow without feeling insecure. Allow your mate to have outside interest. You can't always be together. Give each other a sense of belonging and assurances of commitment. Don't try to control one another. Learn each other's family situation. Respect his or her parents regardless.Don't put pressure on each other for material goods.
Remember for richer or for poorer. If these qualities are missing, the relationship will erode as resentment, withdrawal, abuse, neglect, dishonesty, and pain replace the passion. "Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think." The grass withers, the flowers fades, but the word of God stands forever. Isaiah 40:8
Shall we make a new rule of life from tonight. Always to try to be a little kinder than is necessary.
The difference between 'United' and 'Untied' is where you put the i.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away!

I Love Babies!

My sister, Sydney, who is participating in this event called March of Dimes Walk America. It is to raise money for researches done specifically for PREMATURE BABIES. Since it is for a good cause and she needs people to sponsor her to walk 6 miles, I need YOUR HELP!! =)

Every child deserves a healthy start to life; premature babies need your help now! Her goal is to raise $350 before the walk takes place on April 30, 2005. If you would like to sponsor her, please visit her web page on Walk America:

幽默感有益人體

史坦福大學的一項研究顯示,幽默可以啟動腦部組織功能,它讓人開懷而笑,有益人體健康。它對我們的身心有顯著影響它是人與人之間的潤滑劑,有助建立友誼, 也是一劑緩解壓力的良方。大部分人被幽默感所吸引,而受人歡迎,這是幽默感的回報之一。
在這種社交功能外,史坦福大學的研究小組則集中在腦部對幽默感的反應。研究者 發現,當人看滑稽的漫畫或笑話而發笑時,閱讀者大腦中參陽性強化作用的區域, 會受到刺激。事實上,幽默感所刺激的部位,與安非他命或嗎啡所刺激的是同樣區域。喪失欣賞幽默的能力,正是憂鬱症的症狀之一。
這項研究也可解釋,為什麼一些缺乏幽默感的人,在人際關係上出現嚴重的問題。 缺乏幽默感的人或許他的腦部真是少了一根幽默筋。這項研究還發現,甚至一些睡眠失橫的問題,也與缺乏幽默感有關。

The Universe Within

今天天氣很好, 好到和小常都不想做 school works 而跑去看人體展"The Universe Within", 用人的屍體做雕塑的展覽, 當然不能錯過. 以前都是看圖片, 現在能看到真實的人體塑化的全屍, 沒有展示櫃,讓人可以很近看清楚人體的肌理和骨架, 而且還很完整, 感覺真的很不一樣, 算是很難得的經驗. 我邊看邊想像,如果是我,我願意被展示哪一部份?神經系統?全身的血管網絡?還是肌肉?子宮?骨骼?老實說, 我對於去看沒生命的身體這檔事, 真的很害怕. 本來以為人體展是很恐怖的東西, 實際看過之後才知道其實人體是非常奧妙, 看完這個展覽雖然沒有想像中多, 但對於能把大體作如此展現的人感到欽佩, 也對每一個大體表示尊敬. 雖然我在看展覽時, 口無遮攔的評頭論足, 但我是沒有惡意的啦~ hehe... (自圓其說) 也奉勸各位先生小姐有吸煙者的,不妨看一下,您的肺在N年後也是呈現黑色,不妨考慮將它戒掉吧!總之, 很特別的一次經驗, 大家有空不妨去看看吧~

我和小常看完展覽後便到 Polk Street 上一家咖啡店坐坐, 聊了一下. 有一家茶店很特別, 叫"Teavana". 有各式各樣的茶, 特別的是小常買的 "To Life", 味道很香, 有空一起去她那飲茶吧. ㄏㄏ 我先幫她邀你們了~

時間的投資

花時間默想吧,那是力量之源頭。
花時間閱讀吧,那是智慧的根基。
花時間讀經吧,那是認識神的途徑。
花時間祈禱吧,那是靈性的更新。
花時間安靜吧,那是透視力的溫室。
花時間工作吧,那是成功之階石。
花時間遊戲吧,那是年輕的祕訣。
花時間關愛吧,那是生命之喜悅。
花時間傾聽吧,那是得人的訣竅。

Looking for a New Church Location

今天堯堯和麗琴都沒辦法服事, 我只好臨時上陣. Amy 在 LA 教會有四個朋友剛好來, 也認識了常常聽 Amy 聊到的 Stella. 教會完我們一起去看了教會的幾個新地點, 第一個地點不是那麼好但 building 還不錯, 第二個地點還不錯卻是一棟很舊的 building. 希望繼續為我們建堂的地方禱告, 神為我們所預備的一定超乎我們所求所想!

哈哈哈~ 一個買紅豆餅的笑話!

念五專時門口有一攤紅豆餅很好吃, 每次經過都會看到大排長龍, 有個小我兩屆的學妹, 奉社團裡學長姐之命前去購買, 總共要買9個奶油口味跟10個芋頭口味, 她為了怕忘記一路走一路念"9個奶油, 10個芋頭...9個奶油10個芋頭..." 終於走到了攤子, 排到了隊, 老闆問 "同學你要什麼", 學妹說 "老闆, 我要9個奶頭口味......"(旁邊都是人)後來她就烙跑, 沒人吃到紅豆餅.

主的愛無所不在

最近這幾天可把我忙壞了, 除了學校的壓力, 還有教會事工的壓力, 在加上人生大事結婚的準備, 我只能將所有重擔完完全全交託給主. 我相信他所給我的一定是我可以承受的. 昨天在找恩惠事奉團契演唱 "在你愛裡" 這首歌的歌詞時, 不經意的找到 Good TV 裡觸動真愛第28集"主的愛無所不在"---劉耕宏專訪. 聽到他生命的改變和成長, 覺得自己真的很幸福. 更提醒我要持續地裝備自己. 想到教會在找建堂的地方, 需要主日學和服事的同工, 及許多的需要都希望能帶入擣告中.
我連續好幾天拼命想把喜帖趕快完成希望這個月底能寄出去, 剛才去利口福吃了飲茶, 吃飽了該是好好繼續工作的時候啦~

恭喜Grace賀喜Grace~

恭喜Grace已經擁有的小生命隨著上帝的祝福即將誕生~ 更加高興的是Nelson的牙醫醫院要在Bellevue, WA開幕了. 我便想到Will的project which is a dental office at Livermore, check it out, very cool!

Jennifer Sterling

Yesterday I met Jennifer Sterling as one on one director study, and we had a very nice conversation.
Jennifer got her degree as Graphic Design. BA, The Art Institute of Florida. With an intellectual approach to graphic design, Jennifer Sterling's technique and methodology are fast becoming legend. Her much anticipated first book explores the delicate balance of sensual organic forms, tactile materials, classical typefaces, and the subtle yet dazzling techniques that mark her approach to design. Early concept explorations are juxtaposed against the final product, illuminating the creative process. Many of the works featured have won national and international awards, and have been accepted into the permanent collections of the Smithsonian, Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe in Hamburg, the SF MoMA, the Library of Congress and the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum. The SF MoMA is hosting an exhibit of her work in Spring 2001. Jennifer Sterling is principal, a 16-person studio and founding partner of Sterling Design in San Francisco, a firm listed in the 1998 Graphis Design annual as one of the top 12 in the world. Recent Projects include branding for a coalition under the direction of Hillary Clinton and Madelaine Albright and the front cover design of One magazine. Jennifer's work regularly appears in Communication Arts, ID Design Review, American Center for Design, Type Directors Club, Graphis, the AIGA and other award publications.

Will and I went to the Great Bridal Expo at Design Center after the church today, and there has some interesting stuffs. I saw the bridal gown fashion show, wedding flowers, wedding photographer, wedding gowns, wedding favors, especially, I love the huge chocolate fountain...hehehe...

After the bridal expo, I went to the birdlady's house, because she wants to remodel her house. Of course, Will got another side job from her, and hope God will give him more strength. It is raining very hard outside, and I suddenly saw a huge rainbow outside of my window.
