Mine mine by Jay Chou from his upcoming new 2011 album

Totally in love with it and have been repeating it for the whole day! Can't wait for his album to come out on 11/11/2011; special date that he chose.

最重要的決定 - My most important decision

我常在想应该再 也找不到
I always wonder that I might never find

任何人像你对 我那么好
someone like you that's so good to me

好到我的家人也被照料
So good that my family members are charmed by you

我的朋友还为你撑腰
and even all my friends support you

你还是有一堆毛病改不掉
You still have some short-comings that you can't change

拗起来气得仙女都跳脚
In a quarrel when you get angry, even the fairies jump anxiously

可是人生完美的事太少
But there are hardly any perfect things in life

我们不能什么都想要
we can't demand for everything

你是我最重要的决定
You are my most important decision

我愿意每天在你身边苏醒
I want to wake up next to you each day

就连吵架也很过瘾不会冷冰
Even quarrels are satisfying; the relationship won't become cold

因为真爱没有输赢只有亲密
because there's no win or loss in true love, only closeness & Intimacy

我愿意打破对未知的恐惧
I'm willing to break the fear of what our future holds

就算流泪也能放晴将心比心
even if I cry, I'll cheer up; looking from your point of view and your heart

因为幸福没有捷径只有经营
Because there is no short-cut to happiness, it's an on-going process

Joshua's Baptism

We welcome cutie Joshua Chan to the house of Christ last Sun 19 Jun. He was baptised together with a few other babies and kids after Sunday mass at about 12.30pm. There were lots of other friends and family members who came to attend the baptism and it was just sweet to see babies getting baptised.

Joshua was sounds asleep in his pram when Michelle had to carry him out for the ceremony. But he was a good boy and didn't cry one bit at all. Fr. Michael was doing the baptism that day. Each of the babies/toddlers took turns to get their heads washed by the holy water and anointed by Father, their parents and God parents with the sign of the cross.

Wearing his baptism clothing bought by Sue and Julius, his God parents.

The really pretty and delicious tower of cupcakes that Sue made.

The ceremony lasted for an hour or so and then everyone headed to Michelle and Jason's place for a celebratory luncheon. Darling went there earlier in the morning to help with the food preparation which he usually likes to do. So there was quite a lot of food, including the pretty cupcakes that Sue made and we probably ate too much as usual.

It was such a small world that I indirectly know one of Michelle's colleague's. I found Ingrid really familiar and went to talk to her and found out that we went to the same gym - Fitness First Chadstone TAFE. We both complained about getting a bit ripped off and realised that we both quit at around the same time too. She was telling me about the new Fitness & Aquatic Centre that was opening on East Boundary road early next year and how it should be good to join.

I think we stayed on till about 4pm-ish before we left, still feeling really full and bloated. But all for good reasons; the celebration of another brother in Christ. :)

The Art of the Brick Exhibition

If you haven't already know how much of a LEGO fan I am, well now you know - I collect LEGO and I can't miss any LEGO exhibition of sorts; Even if it meant lining up for an hour plus to get in, just like Brickvention 2011. :p So when I heard about the Art of the Brick Exhibition at Federation Square, I just couldn't miss it and so did my fellow LEGO fan friends Khim and Ellen.

The artist is called Nathan Sawaya. And he builds incredible large-scale LEGO sculptures, which have broken gallery records around the world. We went for the Sat 11 June, 1.30pm session. And here are some of my favourite picks from the exhibition.

Entrance with large LEGO bricks	His version of Victoria Market
Life-size T-Rex, well not exactly	Some Greek Building - forgot its name
4 colourful different skulls	The blue swimmer (life size)
Favourite: tearing your chest	Mosaic of Flinders St. Station

There weren't as many displays as compared to Brickvention. But then again, its different because you had so many exhibitors at Brickvention while here the only builder was Nathan himself. There were videos showing how he built a scpture from scratch with tubs of LEGO bricks. Plus this was more of like an Art Exhibition rather than a convention which was what Brickvention really was.

Tubbs seemed to enjoy himself more and wasn't as disappointed as I was with the exhibition. Maybe he's into the less is more concept and original creativity as well. Because lots of the exhibits at Brickvention were just normal LEGO sets that people build from instructions whereas Nathan came up with all these creations himself. But there was so much more to see at Brickvention; 4 hours there compared to the 1 hour here.

But I guess it was all in the name of Art of in my case: LEGO. ;) And so if you're interested, you can view the  full album on facebook from the link below:
