Tsunami

Can't believe the escalating devastation of the Tsunami affecting India, Thailand, Indonesia right now. When the earthquakes first occurred in Acheh, my cynical response was that its just one of the many news items of the day.......didn't ever think it would have gone on to affect so many others......I hate to find out the estimated death toll cos everytime it jumps tremendously.......4,000.......8,000......14,000..........60,0000!!!!

I am afraid to read anymore of the reports cos whatever I've read so far have brought tears to my eyes.......the only heartening thing is to know that my friends around me have taken action and passed on messages about how we can help. My church is donating this Sunday's offering to the victims and have sms-d us to come prepared this Sunday. My company has sent an email to say that they are collecting money for the Red Cross Fund. I am going to think twice now when I spend money cos I think about how much more I can give to the victims if I give some things up. Things I take for granted......

My prayer is that all will be comforted, that God's peace will be upon them, that relief and aid will be given to the victims and not siphoned away, that people will come forth not only to donate but go to those devasted areas to help..........God be with all of them!

Blissful Dream...

I can't remember what I dreamt about last night, in detail, only the feelings I had from the dreams. I'm sure somewhere in those dreams, I dreamt of Kwon Sang Woo too....hahahha! Woke up at 2am and tried to continue that dream with Sang Woo but to no avail.....however, the best was yet to be. I remember the general feeling of 觉得幸福 ("feeling blessed". Sometimes I express better in Mandarin) in my dreams, of having a child and carrying him/ her (I don't remember my child's gender in my dream. Could be a boy though.) and saying 'bye' to Phill as he left for work (I think I may have told Phill not to go to work and just stay at home...hahahaha....but he said we'll be alright)........I wait for this dream to be fulfilled!

One dream I still remember pretty vividly even though I had the dream several years ago. I dreamt Phill and I were showing our new house to both our parents and the house had white walls and lots of sunlight streaming through (could be heaven!) and I was carrying this chubby lil boy on my hip. I remember feeling very
幸福 and very contented and happy!

Kwon Sang Woo!!!!! Aaaahhhhh!





Never been a K-drama fan nor a J-drama fan. I usually watch them when it catches my fancy but never from episode 1 to the end. I was neither one of the Winter Sonata devotees. Never watched the entire show before (save for an episode or so) and don't plan to do so. However, I bought this K-serial "Stairway to Heaven" recently cos of the male lead, Kwon Sang Woo, who also starred in the Korean movie, "My Tutor, My Friend", last year.

I never really followed the Korean trend. I only knew whom Korean stars such as Won Bin and Seung Hon were. I only thot both of them were cute and nothing more. BUT shucks, after watching "My Tutor, My Friend" and then when I started watched "Stairway to Heaven", I found my first Korean heartthrob - KWON SANG WOO!!!!!

At first glance, his looks are probably not as striking as Won Bin and Seung Hon but his captivating smile, the way his face lights up when he smiles just disarms you....I love the way his face crinkles up. One thought I had when I stared at my TV screen....this guy is going to age so well! Can imagine him being a handsome old man! =P
