I’ve been in Taipei for a week now. For those of you who’re clueless as to why I am here, I am here for work. What work? Deployment of an application developed by us for a client based in Taipei. I’m gonna be here for another two weeks or so.
The one thing I like about Taipei is the food. To me, it’s like going back to Penang to makan all the food there. Don’t know what’s so great about it, just that it’s different. Tastes different, cooking style is different, etc. Can’t really pinpoint it but generally just great. Even when I don’t really know what I’m ordering (cuz I can’t read Chinese), I always end up, so far, with a decent and delicious meal. It’s something that you have to experience for yourself to understand what I’m talking about. So yeah, if you’re a foodie, come to Taiwan!!
The downside of being away from home so long is I miss home. And by home, I mean my second home, which is Singapore. Church, ministry, friends, girlfriend, etc. Not that I’m having a very hard time but it’s something that’s always at the back of your mind. I can’t wait till I’m back home again, to be in the company of those I love and to be back in church again.
A revelation struck me this last Sunday as I was watching the webcast of CHC’s service. I’ve always tried to inspire my TV crew during briefings that what we do is very significant and that in doing a good job we are able to impact people all around the world who’re watching our live webcast and our satellite broadcasts. I finally realised just how true that statement is while watching the webcast on Sunday. Without the team, I’m unable to catch the service. Without the team, I would be unable to hear and see what Dr. Bernard had in store for the church. It really moved me to appreciate what we do and how it really impacts the people around us. Just can’t wait to go back and share this with my team and cell group.
I guess I’ll end here for now. Gotta get back to doing some reading that needs to be read. So until the next time I blog, cheers…. :Þ
