Beary-zie


The other day, Jean told me about this contest run by Marzie in conjunction with MPG 2nd Blogversary. She has asked me to brainstorm a good name for this bear. Beside helping her at her own blog, I've decided to join this contest myself so that i could surprise her with Beary-zie if i win. hehe. So, yeah, i am naming this cuddly bear as Beary-zie (zie = MarZIE). Hopefully, she will only see this post after i win. :-)

Thank you, Marzie! Good luck to me! :-)

Tiny Planets - Dance Mix

This is a song from my sweetheart chloe's fav animation on tv called Tiny Planets. It's about Bing & Bong, two white fury creatures on their adventures in the Tiny Universe. The program helps children examine how things work, strengthen their observation skills, consider underlying relationships and identify/test new ideas. We've love watching it too! :)

Merry Christmas!

In tune with the christmas spirit, we've decided to do some christmas quizzes at blogthings. The first one that we took is What's Your Elf Name? I had a good laugh at M's elf name. Check this out ~ Candy Sugar Butt!! Hahaha.. yep, that's M's elf name - Candy Sugar Butt! Hahaha.. i was laughing so hard that my stomach almost burst! lol!

Come join us & get your elf name listed below:
1) Jean Chia is Fuzzy Cartwheels.
2) Martin Soo is Candy Sugar Butt.
3) Marzie is Giggles Ho Ho Ho.

********************

The second one that we took is Were You Naughty or Nice This Year? Both of us got the same answer, that is "You Were Nice This Year"! Woohoo!! It's good to finally have the recognition. haha.

You're an uber-perfect person who is on the top of Santa's list.
You probably didn't even *think* any naughty thoughts this year.
Unless you're a Mormon, you've probably been a little too good.
Is that extra candy cane worth being a sweetheart for 365 days straight?

Nice Peoples: Jean, Martin, Marzie

********************

And the last one that we took is What Movie Is Your Christmas Most Like? While my christmas movie is sweet like the Miracle on 34th Street, M's christmas movie is crazy like A Christmas Story.

Miracle on 34th Street - Jean's

Sweet and caring, Christmas is about helping for you.
While Santa may not exist, you try to share his spirit.


A Christmas Story - Martin's

Loving, fun, and totally crazy.
Don't shoot your eye out!


********************

Last but not least, we would like to wish all our readers a "Joyful Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays!"

Music Monday #6: One Night



The Corrs - One night


Long day and I'm ready
I'm waiting for your call
'Cause I've made up my mind
My heart aches with a hunger
And I want that you were mine
No I cannot deny

So for one night
is it all right
That I give you

My heart
My love
My heart
Just for one night
My body
My soul
Just for one night
My love
My love
For one night
One night
One night

When morning awakes me
Well I know I'll be along
And I feel I'll be fine
So don't you worry about me
I'm not empty on my own
For inside I'm alive

That for one night
It was so right
That I gave you

My heart
My love
My heart
Just for one night
My body
My soul
Just for one night
My love
I loved
For one night
One night
One night

For one night
It was so right
That I gave you

Bear-y Special Meme

This bear-y speacial meme is from our very good friend, Marzie. Thank you, woman, for thinking of us here. It felt so good to be remembered. Thanks alot!! *HUGZ*


The Spirit of Bear-iuca
-START COPYING HERE-

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a powerful Genie Princess named Mariuca who was known throughout the land as the friendliest, most popular blogger in the blogosphere kingdom. Adored and admired by international visitors and commentators from around the world, the Genie Princess travels the blogosphere on her magical flying carpet, always looking for ways to share her good fortune with others.Over the past two years of blogging, Mariuca has met so many new people, from all walks of life and all over the world, each one bringing a little of their culture and lifestyle when they visit and comment on Mariuca’s two sites. So on her 2nd Blog Anniversary, Mariuca wanted to celebrate with all of her international blogosphere buddies by hosting a bear-naming contests at Wishing On A Falling Star and Mariuca’s Perfume Gallery and to pass her two lucky, cuddly teddy bears along to the winners who came up with the best names.On the opposite side of the world, from the moment Roxy (the prolific Roxiticus Desperate Housewives blogger) and her sweet daughters London and Maddie saw the teddy in his personalized t-shirt and blue muffler at Wishing On A Falling Star, they knew that he needed to come to live with their family in Mendham, NJ. The three New Jersey girls named him immediately and burst into a wonderful song for BEAR-iuca:

BEAR-iuca, BEAR-iuca, amazing teddy cheer.BEAR-iuca, BEAR-iuca, we’d love you to come live here!

Mariuca received 16 possible names for the Mariuca Teddy Bear, making it hard for the Genie Princess to choose just one…then Alakazam! A bolt of lightning delivered the perfect way to share BEAR-iuca’s good fortune to bloggers around the globe. While the soft, stuffed, cuddly BEAR-iuca is on his way to live with Roxy, London, Maddie and Rex in the Roxiticus Valley, the Spirit of BEAR-iuca is racing through the blogosphere to bring happiness, holiday cheer, and beary best wishes to everyone who welcomes him into their online home and passes along the BEAR-iuca good luck charm to ten friends.

Please play along with us by following a few important rules:
1. Add your site(s) to the list once you have received the Spirit of BEAR-iuca badge of teddy bear cheer.
2. Pass along the Spirit of BEAR-iuca and his cheery badge to as many people as you like.
3. Leave a comment HERE once you’ve passed on the Spirit of BEAR-iuca.
4. Once Roxy and the Genie Princess have visited your site to make sure your links are complete and proper, you will then be added to the Master List.
5. To ensure everyone receives equal link benefit, please UPDATE your list regularly!

The Wedding Dress Test

As we are soon approaching 2009, we just can't stop talking about our wedding. Tho' it may seems still a long way to go, but time flies in a blink of an eye. We just don't want to be caught unprepared. I've even had a rough idea of how my wedding gown should be. Here's a quiz I've taken from Blogthing that says perfectly what i wanted for my wedding & marriage. ^^

What Your Ideal Wedding Dress
Says About You

Your Personal Style: Young and flashy. You dress like a celebrity, and you love to accessorize.

Your Ideal Wedding: A huge party with all your friends, with lots of toasting and dancing

Your Philosophy on Marriage: The person you marry should be your best friend.

Your Perfect Marriage: Is when you still surprise each other with romantic gestures

So, how about you? What your ideal wedding dress says about you? If you're married, does your ideal wedding dress says what you've had? Let's have girl talks, k! :)

Music Monday #6: Love of My Life



Darla & Chad Day - Love of My Life


words by Darla Day
music by Mark Phillips
duet sung by Darla & Chad Day

I love you, the love of my life
I need you, our love is right
I've found the one that my soul loves
No other love means so much

I prayed to my God for a heart to keep
He gave me the one, He knew my needs
Over and over this love is sweet
I recognize the joy that makes our love complete
God gave you to me

You're the one I prayed for long ago
Fearless trust I never thought I'd know
I've found the answer to my dreams
My eyes were opened to love's mystery

I prayed to my God for a heart to keep
He gave me the one, He knew my needs
Over and over this love is sweet
I recognize the joy that makes our love complete
God gave you to me

The love of my life...

I love you, the love of my life
I need you, our love is right
I've found the one that my soul loves
No other heart gives so much
God gave you to me

You're the one I love
You are the love of my life

Oh my!! Time really flies when you are busy! I've not been posting for days and even missed out on my Mono Friday post. But no matter how busy I am, I gotta do this round of Music Monday post, simply because we wanted to dedicate this song to Marzie & B. :)

This is our favourite from our wedding songs list. The melody is easy & soothing. The voice is powerful. & the lyric is exactly what we wanted to tell each others. I am thinking to use this song as our entrance hymn, the part whereby everyone stands up to welcome to bride & bridegroom to the dining hall. What do you think?

Music Monday #5: You Are My Angel



Loretta Chow - You Are My Angel


You are my Angel - 法證先鋒 II

Once upon a time,
An angel in the sky,
Made a cover every night,
  
Once upon a time,
The angel loved me so,
It's a miracle in the snow, my heart won't be cold
  
My dear,you are my angel,
Tell me what you know,
Something should be told
  
My dear,you are my angel,
Tell me where you go,
I will brace behind your throne

Once upon a time, an angel gave me life

Okay, here's our favourite song from the TVB series: Forensic Heroes II. We even downloaded and uploaded it to our phone. Nice melody and beautiful meaning. :)

Happy Monday, peeps! :)

CMPC #5: Sacrament of Matrimony

We have Father Simon joining us in our 5th session of CMPC because it was about Sacrament of Matrimony. Father Simon explained to us the meaning & reason of having this sacrament. Before we start our class, we had a photography session. I am not going to elaborate on who is who, but to just show you guys the lovely couples whom have been attending this course with us.

7 lovely couples + 1 leading couple + Father Simon

Sacrament is an outward sign of an inner grace. It is a sign that bring invisible changes within us. We need to go through sacraments, so that we can be sure that we are in contact with God. We need to have faith and love to go through sacraments.

Jesus himself has invented sacraments so that we may see what is unseen. This was explained in John 9:1-12:
As He walked along, He saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" Jesus answered, "Neither this man nor his parents sinned; he was born blind so that God's works might be revealed in him. We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is ocming when no one can work. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

When He had said this, He spat on the ground and made mud with the saliva and spread the mud on the man's eyes, saying to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam". Then he went and washed and came back able to see. The neighbors and those who had seen him before as a beggar to ask, "Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?" Some were saying, "It is he". Others were saying, "No, but it is someone like him." He kept saying, "I am the man." But they kept asking him, "Thn how were your eyes opened?"

He answered, "The man called Jesus made mud, spread it on my eyes, and said to me, "Go to Siloam and wash." Then I went and washed and received my sight. They said to him, "Where is He?" He said, "I do not know."
Matrimony is the sacrament made by Jesus Christ to sanctify (make holy) the lawful union of a Christian man and a Christian woman.

"Being subject one to another, in the fear of Christ. Let women be subject to their husbands, as to the Lord: Because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the Church. He is the savior of His body. Therefore, as the Church is subject to Christ, so also let the wives be to their husbands in all things.

"Husbands, love your wives, as Christ also loved the Church, and delivered Himself up for it: That He might sanctify it, cleansing it by the laver of water in the word of life: That He might present it to Himself a glorious Church not having spot or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy, and without blemish. So also ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife, loveth himself. For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, as also Christ doth the Church: Because we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones. For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife, and they shall be two in one flesh. This is a great sacrament; but I speak in Christ and in the Church.

"Nevertheless let every one of you in particular love his wife as himself: and let the wife fear her husband." ~Ephesians 5:21-33
