touched...

yesterday was the day i actually realized.. how blessed i actually am..

was having dinner yesterday at the admin block alone.. cause it was a very late dinner.. at 930pm.. after a meeting.. was having a chat with one of the workers of the cafeteria.. and i learnt to appreciate life... that guy.. his story touched me.. he dropped out of school after finishing his standard 6.. he practically had no choice.. he had to support his family.. he helped them at rubber tapping.. at the mere age of 12.. tried the military at 20.. gave up in half a month.. he told me that he had to do whatever job that comes in the way.. whether it was cleaning plates or becoming a waiter.. he had to take it all to support his family.. now at the age of 28.. he is gonna try the military again.. wat really impacted me most was his attitude.. towards his friends who are studying.. he even helps those studying in uni financially.. yes.. whenever he is able to.. one time, his friend who was persuing medical studies gave up because his family was sick.. this guy.. he cried... this guy had a heart.. even through his own financial difficulty he would give to help others..

well.. this is only one case.. there are many out there who are like this guy.. but.. if we can't help them.. we might as well just appreciate what we have now.. if u are a student, try your best to be one.. his last advice to me before he left was to study hard and give it my best.. appreciate the privilege i have.. because many don't..

he moved my heart totally.. and i am constantly keeping him in my prayers that one day he will have an easier life.. this guy is an example of being poor materially but yet rich in heart.. I wish him all the best.. and hope he passes his military trial period.. God bless ya.. =)



Agape..

utterly speechless

that's how i would put my night today.. i spent 1 hour and a half listening to or rather sleeping through a worthless talk on how to improve ourselves for the second semester.. worst thing was, it was compulsory.. the wardens would go chase those who din go to the hall.. =(.. my homework! =(.. nescafe ais it is for me tonite..

ok.. my new wife! haha.. here are the pics.. =)



i love this baby! haha... thanks dad.. =).. well.. i tried a few heavy processes on it, such as call of duty 4.. LOL.. it works even on normal graphics setting.. cool man.. awesome graphics and smooth play.. spent yesterday night downloading and customising my lappy into something like my old one.. the essential progs etc etc.. yeah.. ultimately.. i thank God.. because i can't live without a laptop here.. especially with so much paperwork to do.. =).. still have to get my eyes used the screen.. it so much more "sparkly" (lol) than my old one.. =O

Agape..

awesome weekend

HEY ALL! sorry for the absence.. was away from college.. first things first! i wanna announce that my laptop has reached its due time.. i can't seem to start it up.. haihx.. i think some kind of hardware prob la.. but bottomline is i cannot use it.. so i have to blog using my friends laptop.. =)

I am back in coll now from an awesome weekend at teluk chempedak! woohoo... i think everything was kinda put in place haha.. though there were some complications in between.. i will write everything down in full.. so prepare for a long post.. =)


on friday, we went to kuantan at approx 2.30pm.. headed to megamall first.. we wanted to go bowling but found out that the bowling centre was so full, so we had to book our lanes in advance.. then we went to the arcade.. had fun there for like one hour watching ppl play and of course playing ourselves.. =P.. then headed back to the bowling centre... started bowling... a big bunch of ppl playing.. around 8 ppl.. 3 bucks per game leh.. super cheap.. a few ppl kinda surprised me..O_O.. for instance my "mummy" (kiah ngi).. her bowling style gila nice.. she really know how to aim.. she beat me.. T_T... i no face liao.. but all in all we had so much fun.. by the time we left megamall, it was around 6pm.. headed to the house that we were supposed to stay at overnight.. very far from TC (teluk chempedak)..

when we reached the house, i called the guy who rented the place to us to open up the place.. when i finished my phone call i was super stunned.. he din want to rent us the place cause we wanted to do a bbq.. but i told him on wednesday what we were gonna do (the bbq and all) and he agreed without hesitating.. now.. he was going against his word.. then we told him we wouldn't do the bbq.. still he din want to rent the place to "people like us".. =.=.. so there we were 14 people left homeless for the night.

Then someone came up with a brilliant idea.. he stayed at a place in teluk chempedak before.. a chalet.. we could do our bbq and whatever we wanted to do, and that place has WIFI too.. haha.. it took some time, but in the end all of us agreed and man, it was one decision that we never regretted.. =)

arrived at the place at 730pm.. very late.. and we haven even started the fire and all for bbq..quickly got things ready.. this bbq was held in conjuction with wah loong's birthday.. haha..
there was a lot of burnt stuff.. haha.. burnt sausages, burnt chicken, burnt nuggets, burnt fishball etc etc.. =O... great chefs we were.. =D.. then it started to rain.. so potong steam.. moved everything under a porch.. and continued.. then we ended the whole thing at 1130pm.. =)..
went upstairs into the aircon chalet.. quite big.. enuff to house all of us.. then we had a plan to surprise wah loong with a cake..

1. one friend took him out for a walk..
2. one said"crap.. we don have matches"..
3. another 2 went out with matches and met them walking on the way back. o_O.. so fast..
4. took him for another walk.. gave him the most natural excuses like "lets go buy water"..
5. one of us grabbed the lighter, and of course water.. thank God for the nearby perormance at the beach that diverted his attention..
6. i ran all the way back.. lighted the cake, woops. the candles on the cake. and waited at the porch.. offed all the lights.. =)..
7. the friends who accompanied him came back without him! O_O.. said he went to the office for wireless.. i was like "OMG! why??!"
8. retrieved him for that place and yeah.. everything fell in place.. haha.. surprised him.. and yeah... the cake was "CHOC INDULGENCE" .. -drool-

the preparation

da cake





after clearing up.. we played blackjack.. haha.. we had a penalty.. the gamble was mouthfuls of food.. 1-5 mouthfuls.. first we had fried meehoon.. we couldn't gamble money of course.. then we had cake.. twisties.. haha.. one guy had to take 35 mouthfuls of the cake.. LOL.. and everybody was so full from the bbq and all.. fun larh.. really.. =D

35 mouthfuls. creepy.

after all the fun and all.. 6 of us decided to take a night walk on the beach.. haha.. yes.. at around 3am.. lol.. first time i went to the beach so late..


went to mcds.. got myself a coke.. needed a drink badly after all that cake.. o_O.. then we headed to the beach chairs in front of the Hyatt.. haha.. we weren't supposed to be there.. its hotel property but yeah.. its 3AM k.. =O. lay there.. man.. so comfortable.. with the night breeze, the sound of the waves.. ah.. nearly fell asleep.. that IS life.. nothing to worry bout... =D

after relaxing there for 1 hr, the guard came.. alas.. got "chased".. went to mcds, sat down and talked till 5am.. one of the 6 was my chem lecturer.. a young chinese teacher.. she shared with us loads of stuff.. then we headed back the chalet.. slept.. yes.. 14 ppl in a room.. 8 on the beds, 6 on the floor.. and guess what i caught?

haih. remember him from the kissing in my pesta tanglung post? the guy on the left.. X).. u can see the guy on the right trying to "reject" him with his right hand.. candid moment man. =D

we wanted to wake up at 6am the next day to watch the sunrise. but at 6 when the alarm rang, everybody was literally dead.. i told my friend to just off it.. haha..

at 10am. everybody was fresh and ready to take breakfast.. went to the nearby coffee shop, had curry mee..quite nice, and then went for a walk at the beach.. here.. i will let pics do the talking as i am a fan of scenary.. =D

footprints in the sand... love this shot.. haha.


??



My chem lecturer, Miss Aw


the words say "I love u.. some gurls name" lol..

Yi Yong






so.. we had lots of fun.. including playing a game of scissors, paper, stone.. in the water.. haha.. the person who loses must take a step deeper into the water.. we were fully clothed.. but yeah.. heres a video haha..

ok.. i know its dungu and dumb.. say watever u like.. haha.. but we ARE creative.. =P

and i saved the best picture for the last.. cause i find it quite meaningful.. =)

a little gurl.. sitting in front of a vast pool of water.. try to capture the meaning of this photo.. haha... its for yourself to imagine in watever way u like.. =)


all in all.. we had great fun.. i would name this as my best moment in matriculation so far.. hope for more to come.. =)



agape..

busy busy busy

yep.. the title states it all.. =)

after yesterday's "election" for the 2009 Chinese New Year festival committee, i was kinda satisfied with the outcome.. Wah Loong was selected as project chairman, something i AM very happy about =D. while for myself i am vice secretary =O.. yes. a girl's job =.=" but anyways, i was chosen out of pure revenge.. ~.~ cause i sorta aided in the election of Kerlee as Sec, so practically i got pointed out first hand ~.~.. am also very glad that she is the Secretary.. haha.. go Kerlee! girl power!~ =D.. u can do it de!... =)

But all these comes at a price.. =(... i got lots of paperwork to do and proposal to settle before this Friday... sob sob.. =(.. but somehow i am super glad that i got to do something different.. than being on the tech team again or something.. one thing that disappoints me this year is that we actually have the largest pool of talents as compared to the previous years.. but where is the unity? last year's batch had to strive to come out with performances, but they were willing to learn.. and they were united in their decisions.. and they were rewarded with the grandest Pesta Tahun Baru Cina ever so far.. =)..

I mean come on larh.. even if one doesn't wanna get involved, just showing up at meetings and rehearsals itself means a great deal.. we are the minority here, and we must take the stand, to make ourselves heard, to show the majority what we are made up off. I personally think that in matriculation, there are only 2 major events.. one was the Tanglung festival and now is the Chinese New Year festival.. and this is our last chance to give it our all.. to continue what the seniors have fought to preserve all these years.. i am really praying that this legacy won't fall in our hands.. but will be continued and not only that, we will leave something for our juniors other than the memories that we will of course cherish.. =)

mind my ranting.. but i am gonna give my all to see this work and its my desire to see the rest of the people do so as well...whether the role is big or small, lets work hard together to make this a success for the sake of the generations to come k? =)



agape..

the end draws near

irony? 2 posts in a day with contrasting titles? not really.. this was what i was waiting to share about.

as a disclaimer to the above topic, whatever i say here is what i think and express.. thats what a blog is for anyways right? if u don't believe what u read, i don't blame u.. In fact, i can be flamed.. But i am willing to take that risk.. for the sake of those who take heed of what i pen down after this..

What is the state of the world today friends.. look around u.. economical crisis.. war... people are looking for a "saviour" to come and make a change.. I am genuinely not surprised at the mess we are all in now. Why? because from young i have read and tried to understand the contents of Revelation, the last book of the Bible until today. The signs are all there. I mean how? Isn't it amazing how things are falling into place right now? Look at Matthew 24. i will take just an excerpt of it.

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Matt 24: 6-8

I mean. to think logically.

- how can the Bible contain something that will happen way in the future? put ourselves in the shoes of the people living back then. They must think it was insane. But its happening now.

Look at the recent US presidential election. Obama pledged to bring a change. In other words, save the world from its current state.. economically, socially, to bring about peace. In fact, I have no doubt that he will definitely be able to do that. People are so desperate to bring about that change, to save themselves without realising how demoralizing the price that they would have to pay. Gay marriages are now legal. Abortion can be done without parental consent. Abortion in America stands at 50 million a year WITH parental consent. What will happen now that it is without?

and just to note, abortion is not something as easy as pie. I have watched a video of how a live baby gets cut up in the mother's womb. Imagine, taking a pair of scissors, snipping off the legs, arms and finally the head, and all of these contents go down a suction tube. That is a LIFE. what right do we have in the first place to take the life of a human being, especially one who is helpless and can't escape from being killed?

and for my fellow brothers and sisters, there is one important point that i guess u all will know. The signing of the peace treaty with Israel. It was predicted in the Bible that once a peace treaty was signed between the antichrist and the Israelites, the tribulation period would begin.. Rahm Emanuel has just been elected Chief of Staff in the White House, in other words Obama's right hand man. He has the blood of an Israelite, and he's a jewish. Even Israel now supports Obama's move and hail Rahm " Our Man in the White House". In one way or the other, it somehow makes things easier for the prophecy to come to pass anytime soon right?

i am not saying that Obama is the antichrist. There is no reason for him to be so. But things are happening and it is happening fast. What has been stated in the Bible is coming true one by one. The end draws near people.. To my fellow brothers and sisters, work hard while it is still day, for when night approaches, it is too late.. To all readers.. it is still not too late.. u can still make your stand today.. before the end takes place. I myself am actually excited to see what is in store for us all in the future.. I would like to state that i am not a holy fanatic or anything. I believe in what i see. And i trust u too are seeing the same things that i do happening.. if u need help in understanding things, or perhaps confused..do not hesitate to leave something in the cbox.. =)



agape..

hence it all begins

well.. thus begins sem 2 in my college haha.. well i would say the mood for study is not yet there.. life is still pretty boring around here haha.. being the fact that we still don't have homework.. but alas.. its my last 5 months here... at this point i believe i am starting to like the life here.. the people.. the fun we have together.. but anyways.. yeah.. for today, classes did not proceed yet.. in fact, there was just a brief introduction and the lecturer let us off..



I would say.. thank God for giving me good lecturers.. really.. i am really glad that i got such lecturers.. they are happy, constantly cracking jokes and confident at what they do and what they teach.. and they never fail to encourage the students as well.. haha.. thats a good sign right? =P


anyways.. i will post bout something else tonight.. its something that i have been burdened to share and i believe that it is a now or never share thing..




agape..

no mood

lol.. pretty emo topic harh.. haha.. truth is yeah.. i am pretty moody right now.. haha.. =)..


well.. what do u do with a person who has low self esteem? i mean.. its so hard to advise these kind of people.. i really find it hard.. i've been trying.. but somehow she tends to overthink..a lot.. i worry.. praying that she'll find a way to overcome it..
