EMERGE KL 2008 Day1 & Day2
Aug 31st
I went for the 1st & 2nd day for this event. Its a 3 days conference with 82 Competitions as well as a handful of workshops.
The night sessions were the only sessions i attended for the 1st 2 days.
Was invited by a few people to this event and i’ve went to the one last year as well. So i understand how does this conference go on, its slightly different than other christian youth conference. That’s what i think. =D
Alright, there’ll be many many pictures below, so i will not talk much. =)
Enjoy!!~
DAY 1
I was late as i was rushing to Sunway after work. Taking public transport back home and then driving out immediately to Sunway in a traffic that was congested is really quite an adventure for me.
Our very own local artist, 溫力銘 Danny One was one of the performer on the first day. He accepted Christ in September last year.
A good news i’m sure, anyway i don’t really get what he sing in the song he sang. Its quite jaychou-ish… worst than jaychou. O.O
As expected, 刘耕宏 Liu Geng Hong came out to perform as well. He attended all the Emerge Conference all these years, both emerge conferences in Malaysia & Singapore, and of course the one in Taiwan as well.
He’s a well known artist in Taiwan and serve in his Home Church as a cell group leader leading a group of artists who are christians as well INCLUDING JAYCHOU. 刘耕宏 Liu Geng Hong was the one who brought JayChou to Christ.
Along with his wive, an ex Miss Taiwan, 刘耕宏 Liu Geng Hong & 王婉霏 Vivi Wang serve in their church leading a cell group specially for taiwan artists to train them and disciple them. For a good cause of course, to have more testimony for God.
Parade of Schools start shortly after 刘耕宏 Liu Geng Hong’s performance.
The Clap-O-Meter was introduced first.
and the parade of schools starts. Just enjoy the pictures yarh. =D
thats the very last picture of the parade of school competition in Emerge KL 08.
there was a sermon after that followed by a worship session.
Thats it, the first day. It was quite a fruitful session for me as i have been thinking quite some stuffs about myself & God lately. Thanks Steph for accompanying me then. =)
DAY 2
And again, i was late. O.O
I was in time to watch the Beauty Pagaent & Manhunt competition. No pictures though. Lolx
Here’s another competition on the 2nd day, the Arm Wrestling competiton. (picture above)
there was a special performance by some dance group. Didn’t really pay attention on what the emcee said. =X
I didn’t stay throughout the whole session on the 2nd day. Headed to a 2nd location halfway during the sermon by Ps Kong. I left the place with something in my heart/mind so it was a good thing.
I realize that yes i have reached the door already and the problem with me is i’ve been opening and closing the door repeatingly stepping in and out and in and out all these while. I have to go in and start to explore more.
anyway, i met some old friends there =)
Left – SzeMay.Me
Right – Careen.Me
Billy.Steph.Me
XuanWei.Me
So with the Asia Conference coming end of this year, i’m considering on whether or not to attend the conference. I know, attending such events is not and should not be my ultimate goal. I just want to see more stuffs thats all. Lolx. Those who understand will understand and those who don’t, nevermind.
Thanks to those who’ve invited me as well as thanks to Steph who “teman” me the first day. To some old friends, Nice Meeting You again!!
God Bless!!

Clive’s House Party @ Poppy
Aug 29th
There’s a new magazine in town. First showing its face in July, targeting the men/guys in Malaysia, Clive Magazine is here.
Just yesterday, there was this Clive House Party @ Poppy, sort of like the official launching of this magazine Clive.
was there with a couple of friends, queuing up in line since 8.40pm outside of the venue.
kelli.me.randy.munhoe.thomas.with nigel taking the picture.
we got our goodies bag and went into the venue finding ourselves in the midst of quite a big crowd there already.
a few of us met some friends and went on socializing, building up more networks leaving the others stoning aside looking at chicks and hunks. =)
the event haven start yet.
Soon, there was a short announcement indicating that the party have just started and…
2 girls came forward to the middle where there were 2 poles and they start dancing.. o.O
i wasn’t really fascinated then, the 2 girls were… Zzz.. lets skip that shall we?? =)
after that, the 2 hosts for the night(Marion Caunter & Joey G) came out and how excited/happy am i to see Marion!! LOLx forget about the pole dancing girls, they sarks…. =D
they did their job which is talking and talking and seriously i have no idea what they were talking because i was just focusing on Marion alone.. SHE’S HAWT!!!=D
and the next thing i know, some guy was performing there already O.O
*why cant just let Marion talk the whole night…
some MalaysianIdol dude which i don’t care much because he went out of tune a few times and he’s not THATgoodINsinging. I can see everyone chatting among themselves and only the photographers were like paying attention on him as they were TAKINGPHOTOS. Sorry i should not judge thatsit.
then there’s this official launch of the magazine where everyone got their hands on the September issue of Clive Magazine. The 3rd issue of the mag. The important thing is, Marion was the covergirl!! *smiles*
some random pictures lolx =)
Alright, the other highlights of the party…
here…
some games sessions where the people there have the chance to win something which includes a scaled version of MiniCouper and 1 year subscription of Clive Magazine if i’m not mistaken.
and there’s this lucky draw where this guy above won a BALL watch worth 5.3k DARN. Look at his face!!! Rob him when you bump into him!!! =P

once labeled judged forever
Aug 29th
i’m awake all these while, i’m aware of the things around, i’m aware of myself and the changes that is happening dynamically…
and all these years, you’ve been like that, just like that… yes there’s nothing you can do.. nothing at all…
very often when someone sees a person he or she will immediately label him/her and judge him straight away… a door will always be a door, a painting will always be a painting and walls will always be walls… and that’s it, being labeled forever..
i might be bad in some ways in the past, but that doesn’t mean that i’m the same that way now in the present… but gahhhhh… shoot it… no point ranting… you can choose to view a cup of water from the perspective that its half empty and not half full so what can i say more??
i just wish that i can go to bed now and sleep eternally till the end of days…
On second thoughts, maybe till after the end of days, if there’s any….
*smiles*
so now, would anyone care to pay me a few bucks??
i will code HTML for food!! =D
have a great weekend ahead!!
HweiMing’s Satay Celup + Pot Luck
Aug 28th
24 days before HweiMing‘s departure to UK….
Approx 3 weeks left in Malaysia….
Hwei Ming decided to opened up his house for a mini gathering, it was Satay Celup + Pot Luck where everyone(almost) of us brought food to this gathering.
It was last Saturday, a few hours after the ReadWhileWaiting Project.
There were really lots of food there, some cooked, some raw, food like kuih, rendang, fried noodles, fried rice, fishballs, meatballs, chicken balls, vegetables and more. By 8pm, almost everyone reached the venue with some of them started cooking the food already.
Malaysian Version of m2m serving the people.
the owner posing with shengli.
while some were cooking at a side, some idiots are seating down already shaking legs waiting for food – me. =P
Soon, everyone was clever enough like me and sat down waiting for food where else there’s only ONE person who’s cooking. Actually that is to avoid confusion for those who cook, there were like many sticks there in the gravy/soup and you might not know which belongs to you so….
THANKS TO SHENGMAE! =P
and so, we eat, eaten, ate and proceeded to chit chat talk blab bitch noisy around the house with some sudden rare quietness appearing multiple times here and there. It was random and creepy. HeHe
Kelly have to go back early, so we decided that we take the group picture first where we found out that finally the gender ratio is 1:1. AWESOME!!! =)
all these while in our gathering, we always have more guys than girls!!! *sob* and we actually took quite some time taking the group shots, many stupid pictures were taken and those pictures alone can be made into a post itself.. Lolx.. i think i shall do that post sometime soon. =)
we continue our session bringing out some “interesting” food for hweiming to eat. Some cooked insects lmao..
and then… once in a while…
there were some stupid stuffs in the middle..
like this… Pam going nuts…. =D
and this
Yatz Wee Wee
=D Lmao
we took pictures as well… =P
Oh yea, we had this wicked fight as well…..
thought, planned, directed and played by Aaron himself alone……. Sadcase….
and here comes the biggest victim of the fight..
HweiMing… HAHA
some others got wet as well but not as serious hweiming… lolx…
we have our very own mini concert by Nigel, Kelli and Pam… =S
many songs were played, mostly sad ones, the old classics…
and HweiMing….
was enjoying himself!! =)
On the other hand…
people were either taking photos
or viewing photos…..
More talk-talk sessions were held. Really, it seems like a boring gathering with many chattings involved here and there, but it isn’t!!! We brought up some really interesting topics such as Nigel’s Adventure and Kelli’s tragic and more.
We were all laughing most of the times.
Especially with the water baloon fight and mini concert going on.
We enjoyed ourselves very much!!
*smiles*
