Goodbye Singapore!!!!

Again, I have to bid farewell to all my friends in Singapore... Thanks for the great accompaniment, great food, great treat, great time during my two-week stay in Singapore... My life in Singapore won't be so enjoying without you guys!!!

I am entering a new chapter in my life. It is actually not really a new chapter, kinda a sequel from the previous chapter.

I will be arriving in Tokyo tomorrow morning and will go to my hotel in Ueno to drop my cabin baggage first. I will send the large baggage from Narita to my campus. After that, I will be meeting my friends @ ginza, savouring the viking style BBQ.. oh, I really miss that!! This should be my ninth times eating @ the restaurant..

After that, I plan to go to Narimasu to visit my church IFGF Tokyo.. I told God that one day, I will serve there either as singer (although I can't sing quite well), or as usher or as the webmaster. I have been Christian for over 10 years, but what have I done for God during these 10 years? If compared to my fellow friends who went to the same church in Singapore 10 years ago, I felt so small. They are now very dedicated in their serving to Lord. I am still a nobody!

I told myself: It is time to give back to God... God has given me an amazing life. He has given me many countless wonderful gifts in this life (from my undergraduate studies in NUS until my post-graduate studies in IUJ). It is now time to give back to God. And why this church? Many reasons:
1. The church is still growing. The congregation members are around 70-80 people. I believe there are my opportunities for me to serve as the servant of Lord.
2. I want to stay in Tokyo!!!! Yes, this is part of the reason why I chose this church.

Lord, help me to find a job in Tokyo after graduation, so that I can stay in Tokyo and be your servant to your people in Japan. I believe you have placed me in Japan for some reasons. Guide me to Your way!

Japan, I am coming! From today onwards, I will try to write my blog in two languages - a practice that I have done for 6 months since Sep 2008. I need to brush up my Japanese language skills to increase my chance of being offered a job in Tokyo.. But, nothing is impossible with Him!
