busy busy

have been back in Penang for some time already.. going back for Christmas though =)

practically have been super busy cause of the music camp preparation for the jazz concert we gonna have on the 30th of December 2009 =)

our schedule is practically like this every single day

10am -1pm = solo/individual prac
2pm - 5pm = group/sectional prac
8pm - 12am = whole band prac together guided by the conductor

the gaps in between are supposed to be breaks but ended up preparing the door gifts (we have to prepare 630) so yeah. Its typically a full day.

had to handle so much nagging and scolding from the professor just because of minor mistakes made like on the first day we tried the song. Its like he expects us to know every single song in 2 mins by jus reading the scores given to us. well some can do it but i am definitely not a reader. i spent like 15 mins listening to the song via mp3 and acclimatizing to it and i got flamed for not coordinating with the practice group who sat there patiently waiting for me to start with the song. In the first place i cannot read score like a genius, secondly i can play a song after only listening to it and it will take less then 20 mins for sure. totally so wrongly blamed. it was not like i din care bout the prac group, but in order to have a smooth practice i have to know how to play the song first right.? of course i jus shut up and din say anything at all.

anyways. will be back on the 24th of dec on the 1030 am bus. =) so looking forward to tat. hehe =)


agape..

a dramatic end

finally its all over.. i survived a gruesome 3 weeks of grilling papers.. i would say the first 4 papers were awesome... but todays paper was just.. argh.. statistics it is.. and crazy it was.. =( spoiled my mood adi larr.. no happy ending =( But anyways praise God for all the wonderful works He has performed throughout this final exam =)

anyways.. on a brighter side.. =) i am going to pack up adi.. hehe.. going back to KL tomo evening.. and my sis is coming to pick up my stuffs tonite.. so i need to do speed packing.. =x never liked packing.. =(

anyways.. a whole month of hols is in front of me now.. and another sem will begin after that.. i have a music camp during mid december.. so i will be missing youth camp again.. =( sadddd..

gotta go pack! =D *holiday mood*

2/11/2009

tat was the day of my first exam. Microbiology for Pharmacy.. alas.. the toughest subject amongst all 5 i would say.. but thank God it went well at least i could answer all the questions.. =)

over the past week i had a very tough time sleeping..its like i have this pain at the back of my head that prevented me from sleeping.. everytime i told my brain to rest rest rest, sooner or later, a relapse of all the stuff i have studied would roll in my brains.. =.= the night before my exams, i lay down at 12 and could only sleep at 5am. that was even after i took a flu medicine (i din have flu) jus to make me sleep. which is seriously a bad action. it was my first time needing to drug myself to bed.

so yesterday evening i talked to my mum about it and she said i was going into overdrive. my brain was active but my body was super exhausted. she asked me to go see the doctor and get mild sleeping pill just for one night. cos my body needed the rest and everytime i tried to put in new stuff into my head my brain would hurt terribly. so that evening itself i went to see the doctor and yea. He told me that i was too stressed up and overdrive by stuffing a lot of stuffs into my brain at one go. He told me something tat i believe its applicable for all students in uni level larr. =)

quoted by Dr akbar
"As a uni student, it is different from pre u or SPM. It is totally impossible to memorize all the material that u have. So jus cover the necessary stuffs and leave the rest."

well. i am and have always been a student who is only satisfied when i can cover everything. my definition of do my best means i have covered every single detail before i go into the exam hall.
But yea.. ultimately i think as long as u have reached your limit jus leave the rest to God =)

p.s i hate the fact that i have to be on pills to sleep at this young age ==" but it won't be an addiction definitely =)

on a side note,
a testimony i have to share though. For my microbiology test, jus 2 nites before the exam and the nite before the exam, i was prompted to study certain parts again to refresh my memory. and guess wat, on the exam day itself, wat i was prompted to study mostly came out! =) must be the work of God.

2 days time its physiology. i have only covered 25% of it.. as i spent the whole of last week covering microbiology.. i hope i won't stress up myself. really=.= i pray that God will help me cover the necessary.. really need His help right now. i cannot afford to stress up again.. i really can't. i am already tired.



1 down, 4 to go

reopening of my blog after my exams

hey people! long since u guys heard from me right? like i disappeared off the surface of the blogging world. But hey, i will be back after my final exams from the 2/11 - 17/11!

i need your prayers for my finals desperately because i am super stressed and a lot of material to cover.. but here are the dates and times for my exam..

2/11 - microbiology for pharmacy (4) 2.15 pm
5/11 - physiology (3) 9.00 am
10/11 - basic chemistry (4) 9.00 am
11/11 - public health pharmacy (2) 9.00am
17/11 - statistics for pharmacy (4) 2.15 pm

the numbers in the brackets is the units for each subject, or rather denotes the weightage of the subjects towards my final cgpa. The higher the number, the greater it will affect my cgpa. as u can see total up the number of units i will have 17 units already for my core subjects alone. hectic eh. (max units allowed per sem is 20 units).

the first 2 days are my most hated subjects =.= biology. i am so not a bio person and microbiology is so so so detailed! argh physio is too descriptive for me as well! =( nevermind. after the first 2 days i feel more at ease. but the last day, statistics is another subject where we don't understand a single thing. cos its all bout research and biostatistics. case by case study, research methodologies. crazy la. its like dumping us first year students in the deep end. =(

but i thank God that our research projects for the Public health and statistics (yes 2 researches to be done. ) went well. after analysing a total of 1500 odd self-designed questionaires distributed to students and the public and running the analysis through computer software (SPSS) and finally the poster presentations to the lecturers about our research findings (over a process of 3 months) we finally overcome the 2 projects -phew-

i have to end here then. My baby went back to Ipoh already for the weekend. Makes me remember home.. kinda miss it too.. its the longest period i ever been away so far.. and yea.. hopefully i pull through the final 2 weeks of exams... =) please remember to keep me in your prayers.. i really need it.. tats all for now i guess.



agape..

a break

i need one from the blogging world. so i guess i won't be updating that often.. got lots of other stuffs to do =( so for the time being take care guys.. =)


agape..

a breather

yes.. finally a one week break from all the hassle..

finally convo is over.. it was realllyyy tiring playing for 9 sidang.. but it was on the whole a really fun process larh.. =) thank God for the strength tat He gave me to play for all 9 sessions cos "being the pianist is like being the backbone for the orchestra" - Prof Razif (our conductor + lecturer for the band/orchestra) it was a tough job and there were hiccups but yea.. He helped me pull through.. =) gotta learn up sight reading again though after all these..

now i am back home and relaxing for a while before i go back to hit my books at the end of this week =).. i will put up the photos i took for convo soon.. but don expect them to be clear pics as my phone is not a good cam phone.. btw i will be getting a new phone this week cos the LCD of the old one is spoiled.. and i cant read messages with it.. not worth repairing la cos its the hardest part to repair and the most costly.. =(

my older sis came back home with the baby =) and she is growing well haha.. =)

Praying that God will give me the wisdom and the strength to go through my course material and get my degree in the end.. pharmacy really is a tough course. but i know tat He opened the door for me to be able to study it for a reason.. and tat is the purpose why i am still driving myself to do my best for Him =)

till the next time..

agape..

going home =)

hey all~! i will be going home on Sunday afternoon! =) back for a week.. so i hope to catch up on some of u all when i get back kays?





agape..

40th convocation

yep.. this week will be the 40th convo that USM is gonna organize.. and i am gonna be playing for convo.. -tension- cos its a very major ceremony, very formal and very prestigous.. A lot of VVIPs will be there.. praying hard that this week will just fly pass and it will soon be Sunday and i will be going back to KL then... =)


EPCC (my current church) also celebrated her 12th anniversary yesterday =)




agape..

happy 1st anniversary

to my dropping counter.. happy 1st anniversary =P

nothing to post for now.. been a pretty much busy weekend and i got class later so byes =)




agape..

of camps and orientations

finally man.. all the camps and orientations are done.. and yes. well into the 3rd week =(.. tired man..

first bout the camp i said i would talk bout in the previous post..

held at Kem D'Puncak Bris, Sik, Kedah, on the 17th to 19th of july..

on the first day, reached bout 12 noon, briefing started at 230pm.. and cont till 530pm.. man.. under the hot sun for 3 hrs.. torture.. =( then we started to set up our tents and were divided into groups..

p.s they took away our phones and expensive stuff (watches etc. only the leaders were allowed to keep watches) nyways.. there was no line haha..

at night, we had ice breaking session.. which consisted of quite a lot of games and dancing.. haha.. yea.. after tat around 10pm, we were entrusted with a group flag,an individual flag, a plate and cup each of which we had the responsibility of "taking care" of the 3 items entrusted to us.. mafan la. have to drag here and there during activities.. in fact, our group flag got "stolen" by the facilitator before and we got punished for it.. lol.. after the entrustment session, we were asked to go to sleep at 12am..

(super kind of them.. as the schedule only said that we were allowed to sleep at 2. started to get suspicious...)

true enough.. at 1am, the hailer went off.. we had to drag ourselves to the meeting area.. and were told that we had to jungle trek in the middle of the night.. all of us had to take a boat over to an isolated island in the middle of the lake and start the trek without a torchlight.. kind of a new experience for some of them.. and a new adventure for me.. cos i had never sat on a boat in the middle of the night.. =O

we had to line up and cling on to each other so that no one falls behind and loses their way.. the gurl who held my hand held on so tight tat my entire palm went numb LOL.. super scared la.. some of them.. even though it was actually really safe.. but as understood, some of us really fear the dark.. it was kinda beautiful trekking at 2am.. cos we could observe a lot of colourful glow in the dark plants.. =) and sense the cool night air + peaceful sound of the crickets.. =)

by the time we went back it was already 430am.. slept for 1 hr before waking up at 6am..

for the 2nd day, was pretty much games bla bla. the highlight of the day was something tat i had done before..

SURVIVAL!

pretty much a cooking session over a fire.. and other than the vegetables, salt and some seasoning powder + 3 matches.. there was the highlight dish..
FRESH CHICKEN.. DEJA VU

had to catch one of the live chickens around the camp area (purposely released by the facilitators).. slaughter it (this had to be done by a muslim to make it halal), clean it then finally cook it..

during the slaughter process i had to hold the chicken as no one dared to do it in my team. =( while a muslim faci helped us slit the throat.. (our team had only 2 muslim gurls who din know the proper technique).. shall not go into details.. but we produced nice dishes though =) curry powder chicken deep fried =)

night time we had performances etc.. entertaining and all.. and luckily they let us sleep for 4 hrs that night.. and finally the last day was pretty much bout breaking camp, prize giving and debriefing.. left camp bout 3pm and reached bout 430pm in uni...

p.s 1. they din let us have cold water throughout the camp. hot orange juice, hot tea, hot everything.. teruk la.. especially after hot days and strenous activities..

p.s 2. shower area was a common area.. and the water was green.. =(.. rather take fresh from the pipe..

p.s 3 after they gave us back our phones.. managed to take a few pics of the campsite b4 leaving =)





as u can see. really a nice place by the lake =)

*its cooling at night..

some other random pics =) during jazz band orientation.. its a game actually..
1. get a partner. advisable same sex
2. form 2 circles one outside and one inside
3. outside spin anticlockwise, inside spin clockwise
4. when gm says hand to hand! find your partner and touch each other hand to hand.
5. as game goes further the contact parts get gross.. as u can see..

nose to mouth =O

tats bout it for orientation though.. =).. next i found this burger at a mamak shop nearby. i won't reveal the price.. i want u visitors to guess the price of this burger and chips.. and its seriously nice.. the burger is the size of my hand.. =o

leave your answers in my cbox =)


tats all for now..


agape..

drowning

hi all.. its long since i've updated.. i just can't find the time to do so..

oh my goodness.. nvr been so stressed out over assignments and involvement in my life before man.. =(.. since this is the only place where i can rant and let it all out, i am seriously not gonna care if u can't bear with it.. no offense.

jus came back from a training camp. compulsory for all first year students..first time it was compulsory... from 17th to 19th july.. super tired man.. after coming back. it was all activities and we slept only 6 hrs in 48 hrs.. =( enuff bout the camp for now.. i will post bout it later.. its a super nice place.. apparently we had the best campsite amongst the 5..

next.. i joined jazz band.. we play jazz duh.. and yea.. got all the sax, trumpet, etc etc la.. and now i found out that as a pianist they required me to read notes.. OHOH.. =(. not my thing.. but thank God that there was another pianist that knew how to read.. but also not so efficient cause she quit for 3 years.. but still better than my 7 years of no trainin lol.. and yea.. we are gonna play for convocation in august... so for my situation the professor who is our conductor + trainer purposely put in a song.. yes.. "my heart will go on" from titanic.. cause it suits my style more.. now i feel double the pressure. cos i will be soloing a lot of parts.. and we finished practice yesterday at midnite.. from 8pm.. grilling man.. cos convocation is mid august and we don have much time.

p.s practices are on monday and thursday..8-11 and 5-7 plus respectively.. but for the love of music and the will to wanna relearn my theory i found this quite enjoyable. though really tiring..

then comes my course's assignments..

so far we have been bombarded with 3 assignments.. 1 due this friday and the prof gave it last wednesday! the assignment was to evaluate a whole journal on the given topic.. and we must "critically appraise" the literature. are u as confused? without a actual guideline we must complete it. and according to the schedule, we are supposed to be given this assignment beginning of this month and we have 1 month to complete it. but now it seems not. and i am the leader for this project for my group and we haven't even started! i am in a bizarre mood right now..

then comes the stupid research project..must really search journals, evaluate literature again.. must come out with questionaire.. zzz.. must go update the prof in charge every wednesday till we finish our research at the end of the 14th week.. that is around october time la..crazy la..=.=

then we have our nursing home project to do every weekend for 4 weeks.. tat luckily i am not the leader for my group la.. so i don have much of a role there..

orientation week for our respective faculties pulak.. i am also my group's leader.. meeting tomo night for a one time practice for a cheer, a sketch from a given topic.. in 2 hrs must complete leh =.=.. cos we can't actually fork out the time for these side stuffs.. closing ceremony this sat.. along with a race.. haih. don know whether i will even survive the week

then also comes the lab reports.. sian.. 2 reports.. submission this friday.. yikes! and these are not like the reports we do in school leh.. its quite complex and we must detail every single result..

there are a lot more things i wish i could put into words. but seems like i don have the time.. i will end my post here. hope i will come back soon to my blogging word.. till then..


agape..

meeting up with some old buddies

heh. first week of lecture and we already feel sleepy.. =P

this will be a picture post of an interesting restaurant the whole bunch of us were at in queensbay mall.. the whole bunch referring to KMPh buddies from the main campus (all of us were there.. like only 5 =.=) AND some "delegates" ( 2 only D: sob sob) from the engineering campus across the bridge =)

this is a chair =O

me modelling the chair =P

i don't understand wats this for.. =(

lol... the menu

and finally the food.. it tastes good.. thank goodness.. haha =)

the food bowl.. haha.. your mind must be strong while eating.. =P.. my other frens who ordered
normal plates (in fact they were toilet covers haha) were trying to get my imagination running =(

nyways.. thats the restaurant we found.. its called "T-bowl". go figure why. LOL.


then yesterday night.. i walked to youth in EPCC and it was POURING.. oh my goodness.. it takes 15-20 mins to walk, and i was wet from waistdown by the time i got there.. and my shoes were totally "banjir"ted.. even with an umbrella.. cos the winds were crazy strong man.. it was my 4th time getting caught in the rain here adi.. really wish at these moments tat i had a car =(

some of the pics of EPCC..

Pastor Sam, senior pastor of EPCC

the youth


the stage, with all the music equipment. -drool-

hehe.. had an awesome time in both services, yesterday night and today's service.. =)

the adults in the morning service even jumped along to songs like evermore, so in love with u, king of majesty.. (yes they do those songs in the Sunday worship)... even my friends whom i brought today said they never experienced such a vibrant church so far.. and the good news is... they are planning to come back!! =D

tats bout all now. class tomo in the afternoon. hehe. more sleep time =D


agape..

The best uni ever..an awesome weekend

The title says it all.. i am super proud to be a student of USM! its really a privilege to be able to come here and enjoy life as a uni student here.. apparently this uni is the most open uni in the whole of Malaysia.. haha.. i shall brag bout the uni in this post. so bear with me all those who have been through a horrid orientation week in other universities around Malaysia =P

lets get on with point no 1~!

ok.. first and foremost i would like to express my utmost gratitude to the Chinese seniors during the orientation week and as well as after who helped me settle down in this place.. u guys were the most friendliest ppl and u've made me feel at home hehe =)..

p.s these seniors were not the facilitators or PPSL as we would call them.. they were just random ppl willing to give us advice and help us settle. =)

point no. 2

this place hor. theres food everywhere man.. outside my desasiswa (hostel).. they have 2 24 hr mamak stalls complete with wifi. as well as a kopitiam with wifi too.. and the wifi is not streamyx. (apparently streamyx not popular here.. lol). its penangfon again.. and its crazy fast.. xD..

p.s.. just a side note, my hostel is outside the main campus. its like opposite the road.. where they have 6 blocks and 3 desasiswa. if u get my point, 1 desasiswa has 2 blocks each for both male and female, and we are on the top of a hill, overlooking the main campus.. nice view eh x)

so imagine this, in our hostel area, u can walk out at any hour (yes including the wee hours of the night) if u are hungry and go grab a bite at one of the mamaks as well as get really decent internet access.. hehe =)

point no 3. this is related to the awesome weekend i had.. hehe

on saturday night, we had a bunch of seniors from a church nearby (century church or stg. my fren introed them to me..) who volunteered to bring students out to makan and tour around the area outside the campus a bit..

so we were a bunch of 30 something excited freshman heading towards Sg Dua.. (one of the gates of the main campus is situated there.. so we can pretty much walk there ourselves in the future..) but this time we went by van.. used a few rounds to get us all there.. haha

and guess wat.. there were like 2 gigantic hawker food courts there.. with all kinds of food.. char koey teow la, asam laksa la.. western la. name it u got it man.. =) this will take sometime to sample all the stuff they have there.. =P

after the dinner, we went to the pasar malam (open every sat nite) that was situated jus across the street in the same place.. so we took a walk there. when we started walking through the pasar malam, we tot that it was jus one stretch of the road and that was it.. then when we reached the end we were like OH MY GOODNESS!~ turn left there were more stalls, then finish tat stretch another right and more stalls! LOL. it was the biggest pasar malam i've ever seen in my whole life. in fact bigger than the ones in KL.. woot!~

p.s there was a Chinese stall section and Malay and Indian stall section.. tats why it was so big.. not being racist but they have halal issues to abide to so we do understand.. =)

after the long walk in the pasar malam, we walked across the street to Tesco. yes there was a tesco and quite a big one too.. bought all our supplies and stuff and finally headed back to the hostel.. man, a super enjoyable nite.. =)

Its an awesome uni life here really. with such an incredible environment to live in, wat is there to complain about? hehe..

point no. 4

ok this was about sunday.. =).

went to EPCC (excel point community church) for service this morning.. and man, it was a wonderful service! i enjoyed every part of it, and i am looking forward to serve in the music ministry there soon.. =) they have such a vibrant congregation, a passionate pastor (pastor sam) who preached today.. there was no problem in being attentive.. he was so filled with energy ready to channel God's word and the message was enthralling and captivating.. i found myself nodding and saying "amens" to the points he presented. truly he is a talented and anointed speaker of The Word.. =) i am not going to have a prob making this my regular church here as it has surpassed my expectation.. awesome. =D

after the church service, my bro in law and sister took as to queensbay mall and dropped us there.. man the mall was as big as midvalley.. maybe not as big but something identical. we walked around, watched a movie (ice age 3) which was totally hilarious and fun to watch.. its a must watch..

rating 8/10

p.s i don wanna spoil anything. so no reviews =D

after the movie we went back to the hostel and that ended my Sunday.. =)

as a concluding point, words cannot describe how great life here is, and how i really look forward to my years here.. its really a blessing to be here.. amongst friendly ppl.. amongst a familiar culture (in USM, there are more Chinese students than Malay surprisingly =O ).. during my last orientation in matriculation, i so wanted to go home after orientation. but this time, i don have tat feeling anymore.. i had the feeling of adventure, to explore and to appreciate every moment tat i am going to have here.. have positive vibes. and this is where i am now, living life here to the fullest and having tons of fun! =)

i will halt for now.. if i cont i will be long winded haha.. =).. to all my frens in other unis like UPM, UKM, UM.. u guys enjoy the privilege of going home every weekend k.. (most of u guys). and its in KL, and u all gonna have a uber fun time too..hehe. so i wish u guys all the best and take care.. =)


agape..

a great week and a great start

hey all! its been quite some time since i last updated this blog.. cause i could not get any internet access..

p.s the wireless internet here is security enabled.. so i have to register in order to get access to it.. Had to walk all the way to the pusat komputer.. so far..=(.. no bus service yet till friday!

Hola! i bring greetings from USM, Penang.. =D

Orientation week was not as hectic as matriculation la.. in fact its very relaxed.. =P.. pity to all my frens who are in UKM and UPM.. all the best and i hope u guys survive =P..

Quite like it here.. hehe.. =).. its a nice place.. aside from the walking from the hostel to the dewan for major activities and also for your information, my hostel is across the road outside the campus.. so its a pretty long walk to the faculties inside the campus..

next week when the seniors come back, its gonna be a rush for the bus service.. everyone will have ta squeeze and squash.. but since i'm from KL, there shud be no prob.. kinda used to rush hour madness.. x)

looking really forward to going to EPCC this weekend.. hehe.. =) wondering how the new church will be like and the environment of the church.. looking forward to start serving again and be an encouragement to the young people in USM and around in Penang.. but the Penang one will have to wait till i am used to this place of course..

the system in the university is a whole lot diff from wat i used to experience.. in the beginning its really kinda hard to grasp the minimum requirement of the units needed to graduate.. the pharmacy course alone is already super busy.. but we still have to take stuff like BM, english, islam and asian civilisations, keusahawanan, koko, skill courses and other stuffs to fulfill the units.. it was kinda hard to understand.. but now i kinda get it.. all the same.. its gonna be super busy but fun.. hehe

looking forward to blogging more in this place.. since i really cannot do much here..haha..
p.s the isp provider in USM is "penangfon" which uses fibre optics for their cables.. not like the copper wires "erhem" used by "erhem" company.. so it can actually house a massive amount of data transfer.. i checked the download speed and it is 4.69mbps o.o..

oh before i end.. i have a few testimonies to share

1. the day i registered, i got a chinese/kadazan roommate who speaks mandarin (it was arranged beforehand by the uni)

2. he is a Christian and so is my neighbour who is also Chinese and both are my coursemates..

3. managed to know another friend from Sarawak who is also a Christian.. haha.. and also not forgetting the friend i mentioned about in the earlier post..

Overall i thank God for granting me awesome friends whom share the same faith as mine.. we can openly talk bout our faith with each other.. hehe. which is kinda cool =D


thats all for now la..

agape..

last few moments

i updated!!! lol

went for bowling today with david... my last game in KL and for sometime too.. and guess wat... i broke my own personal record.. =D


A 178!! =D

my previous best was a 171.. this was memorable cos at the last frame i had a bad split...and i tot gone la my chance to set a new record.. but somehow managed to spare it.. and create a 17x score.. heeeee

yala.. think this probably was my last time out enjoying life too.. =(

oh before i end..

Yesterday something happened and i would deem tat as nothing short of a miracle...

I was at the mamak with David and somehow i came across Melissa.. (yep from youth).. she stays closeby... she was with a bunch of her cousins la.. and one of her cousins was going to USM too to study architecture.. this is the part where i prayed for.. That God would grant me a good roommate.. and guess wat, he is in the same hostel with me! and on top of that he is a Christian and we plan to go to the same church in Penang! =D.. its not confirmed tat we are roommates yet, but we plan to register together and request for it la.. at least now i have someone that i know and can room with.. thank You Lord! =D

i will leave it for now.. =).nites!



agape..

rusty blog

hey.. its been long..lazy to update since its holidays and not much to do.. =(

ytd went out with Hansel, Kah Yun, Lydia and Rosanne.. which was kinda cool since we caught up at camporama and then not long after tat we got ta meet again :).. watched "Fighting".. which has kinda a plain storyline.. everything was kinda expected haha and i don understand why the movie was rated 18 SG. there was minimal blood aside the whacking and violence which was quite minimal compared to other "U" rated movies.. but it was an ok movie..

rating : 6/10

perhaps i would update my blog more often later on. because i will be off to Penang on a new adventure and i hope things will really happen there =)


agape..

i am off...

going off to penang.. 26th june..4 years.. got an offer to do pharmacy there in USM (universiti sains malaysia).. i can't express how blessed i am..its a miracle..cause i did physics in matriculation..(for your info..for pharmacy courses they favour bio students) and yet i was selected as part of the 117 students from all over malaysia to do pharmacy in the uni that is supposedly the best in Malaysia for pharmacy..well.. i will talk more bout it later in the next post.. this is just a brief notice..

p.s1 USM is the only uni which allows physics students to have a chance to do life sciences

its really really God's hand.. i and thank Him for that

sad part is i am leaving again.. *sigh*



agape..

whole update =D

alrite alrite i will update =P


hey all.. i am back after my 2 week stint travelling all over malaysia. =)

first i went to pahang on tuesday (5th may) to start my training as a facilitator for orientation week in my ex matriculation college.. (yes i am an alumni now.. =P).. hehe..

then on tat thursday recieved an sms tat was totally potong steam.. *sigh* i had to go to Penang for an interview with the faculty of pharmacy in USM on Monday (11th may).. so. yea.. friday itself i rushed back to KL.. then Sunday i packed my stuff then went to Penang..

the interview itself i would say was a bit tough..

first we lost our way in USM. no laughs. =P. the uni IS big. and finding one faculty was like a needle in a haystack. took half an hr then gave up and asked the guard. (something we shud have done from the start =_=)

second. the questions they asked during the interview was all bout pharmacy. like.. what is pharmacy? which sector of pharmacy do u wanna do after your degree? do u know this and that bereau or sector in pharmacy? LOL. i was expecting questions bout me. my achievements, of course a bit of pharmacy but to that extent i was a bit taken aback. on the spot they asked me to list 3 strong points and 2 weaknesses tat i have. stunted. i mind went blank. but still managed to answer them la phew.

so overall i think it was a pretty good interview.. hehe. i hope i get the course. cause i kinda <3 penang. =).. its not a bad place to be at haha.. ok..

after my interview on monday, took a evening bus. back to KL. next afternoon went back to Pahang via bus again.. i think i have buslag. i was immensely tired when i reached the coll on tuesday evening. but nevertheless i was excited to meet the bunch of Chinese juniors for their moral class 5 mins after my arrival. Without bathing, rushed down after putting down all my stuff and bam. 190 ppl in the lecture hall sitting waiting for the lecturer to come in.. it was moral class time =) and we as facilitators get the advantage of the first 20 mins as the lecturers are usually late haha =)..

So yea.. introduced myself.. and we begin the usual briefing of all the stuff tat we were briefed on in my year.. like reference books, bus tickets, organisations to join, etc etc..

next morning (wed morning), they had to wake up at 430am, and so did all the facilitators. it lasted till the end of the week.. =( so imagine all the faces during moral class at 530am on friday morning haha =(.. it was like zombie gathering x)

this bunch of juniors left an impact on me nevertheless.. though our ultimate goal as facilitators was to instill discipline and knowledge of this coll to our juniors so tat they can survive the 10 months.. haha =).. we also tried to ensure no one quitted coll because of the environment, because of the life.. unless they got better offers.. but quit just to do form 6 is utter nonsense. really.. because

1. this is a shorter course and guarantees u a place in local Uni (a good one too) if u obtain awesome results which is actually not hard to get honestly.. even if u get not so good results, chances are u still get choice number 7 or 8 in your list. =)

2. form 6 hor, how many ppl can get 4.0. its like so crazy impossible to get.. and if u don't get that, they might just send u to some uni in Sabah or Sarawak.. dangerously risky..and even if u wanna go Singapore or overseas to study. if your STPM results are no good. you can't go either.. unless u have real $ so conclusion. if u have a safe base. why not go for it.. the environment of independance is just a matter of time. when all of us go uni, it will be the same.. but i still don't understand why some ppl quit. =(

but i would say. for our pahang matriculation, no chinese quit for Form 6 muahaha.. only for JPA and better offers.. but i am disappointed at my own school juniors. nearly all of them came back for form 6. i can't help feeling frustrated at that..

On Friday, which was the end of all the orientation week and stuff, i came back to KL, relieved and not regretting that i had the chance to give back what this college has given me.. hehe.. if i have a chance i will try to become facilitator again next year. =).. its quite fun really haha x)

p.s1* i had to do a class act on thursday morning just to change their attitude cos this year we used a softer approach and they were getting out of hand. so no one wanted to be the bad guy. i had to be. i din scold them, but i sorta "poured out" my "frustration" on them =P. which actually worked. why?

p.s2* cos on Friday morning. they surprised us with a Manila card 2 tables long (school table).. with all the words of appreciation and promises to change and put in their effort for this year from all the juniors (each one wrote one small card and stuck it on the big card).. =) and also a song.. =D i was seriously touched and to date, the card is with one of our lecturers in the office x).. its the first time facilitators ever recieved such a gift. thats y i said this bunch of juniors was special..to complete such a card in the span of one night shows your sincerity to change for the better.. u guys rocked! ok.. tat was about my 2 weeks away from home.. ok next..

YESTERDAY night.. was the most frightening experience in my life LOL.. i was playing some games on my lappy then i went to my desktop and saw a msn message

"you can now check your matriculation results for sem 2 finals at this website"

i was like " EH? wasn't it released only on 20th may,10am?"

my hands went cold and my heart started to beat. i wasn't ready for this.. not now. =( i was expecting a sleepless night. cos i knew i did not do really well for my physics.. i went and typed my matric number plus IC.. and..

OH MY GOODNESS.. PRAISE GOD! =D

God's mercy is really evident here.. and i wanna give all credit to Him.. cos i am doing this for His glory alone.. =).. all those prayers are answered now.. i can finally breathe. hahaha

this really means a lot to me.. considering my effort tat i put in was much more than in Sem 1.. and also God's grace.. cos i really really really did a bad paper for physics.. so i din know how i managed to get this.. but yea.. HE gave it to me..

so now i can breathe easier. cause i was already considering with my family... backup plans if i did not get a 4.0 CGPA... due to my physics. =x

but now all the worries are over.. now its up to God again to work wonders and give me the course of my choice.. heehee.. =D

God You are good and Your mercy endureth forever. =)

ehe.. this is a random shot.. 2 kitties playing around in the hostel block i was staying in during my stint as a facilitator in college..


ehe.. as promised some of the pics i took during the trip to teluk chempedak.. this is just the sunrise =)







and this last pic was taken when we were walking along the beach at 4am plus plus x)


ehe.. oh those days. =(. missing it..



agape..

better feed my blog a bit

yep.. tot it will be time.. haha..

well.. ok.. how shall i start.. for starters.. i am back from Penang.. visitin my sis, bro in law and the baby Shanna.. thank God they are all fine. hehe.. baby is healthy and cute.. x)..

going off to pahang again on tuesday to facilitate orientation week for the juniors, next batch of matriculation students.. hehe. Gonna be MIA from may 5th to may 16th.. but in the middle i will have an interview.. (details not cfmed).. so i will have to travel up and down from Pahang.. hopefully the interview will be in the location where i wanted it to be, which is in KL (Shah Alam).. i just hope it will not be in Penang. if not it will be terrible.. going from here to there.. and apparently being a facilitator is gonna be a very tiring responsibility.. so see how i am gonna balance up my time.. haha.

bout the teluk chempedak (TC) trip i had.. just before i left Kuantan the last time.

it was sort of a mixture of unforgettable events..

first for dinner we had the famous chicken chop and a drink.. which in mandarin is called xi mi lao.. honeydew flavour. haha.. i don really know how to describe it.. but its a sweet drink with honeydew fruit and milk and sago bits..and some agar agar.. which was delicious.. haha.. u can even find this drink in KL.. but yea apparently it was famous in TC. and yes.. its those hawker store by the beach.. so yea. sea breeze and all.. make an awesome meal together with frens.. haha

then after the meal, took a walk.. then went back to the chalet.. all of us decided to sleep and wake up at 4am.. go to the beach and wait for the sunrise..

at 4am. alarms sounded all over the room, followed by groans, then silence. LOL

finally 430am, we managed to kick ourselves out of bed.. one had to be literally dragged. =.=

went to McD. x). (its 24hrs).. grabbed a meal. all of us were starving.. and since we were all gonna sleep through breakfast later mite as well grab a bite... haha.

went down to the beach.. chit chatted and ate.. and after tat.. went down to the sea, took of our slippers and walked one whole stretch of the beach.. it was a cool feeling, the late nite sea breeze, warm sea water (ehe. science. nite water is warm). and the waves lapping at your feet. first time i ever walked at the beach at 5am.. awesome experience

after 2 rounds, we sat back on the beach, waiting for the sun to rise.. it was already 6am, but due to the slight drizzle and cloudy skies, we din expect much..

630am, we could see a bit of the sky breaking apart.. light shining through the very seams of the clouds.. a crowd had started to gather around the beach awaiting for the sun to rise as well.. apparently there were a bunch of strange ppl who went swimming =/

in fact. i captured every moment of the sunrise from then.. which i will post in the next post becoz i am downloading something via bit torrent and the upload will be ultra slow.

p.s1. my phone doesn't have nite mode.. which wasn't much of a help.. =(.. the phones with nite mode captured better pics.

7am. sun rose fully.. as expected, we didn't get a chance to see the yoke. cos the sky was cloudy and misty.. but the colours were apparent and clear.. satisfying.. =)..

went back to the chalet after tat.. all dropped dead.. woke up at 1130 am checked out and went to the bus station, boarded the bus and headed home.. hehe =)

tat was pretty much of wat happened.. a very summarized account..

p.s 2 my phone did not manage to get a lot of pics becos all the events took place at nite.. which as i said my phone has no nite mode. so can't take any clear pics. =(

p.s 3 i think i need to feed my blog with more pics rather than words. but where to find pics?????? ish..


tats bout all for now.. ehe..



agape..

malas

don feel the urge to update x)



agape..

yep.. i am home! at last.. got some pics of the sunrise we took at teluk chempedak later.. and also the posting bout our last night in Kuantan of which i spent with my best friends in matriculation..=)

apape..

Its over

finally i've finished my final paper.. looking forward to home now.. be back for good on Sunday..

can finally heave a sigh of relief.. sleep without having to worry bout facts.. worry bout whether i have worked hard enuff.. even today itself i was having bad flu last nite.. took a pill and slept early.. then woke up 4am in the morning to complete my studies.. and thank God i did.. coz i managed to cover everything.. =)..

really looking forward to KL and the things i am gonna do back there.. =D


agape..

Crazynesssssssss

past 2 days were really crazy.. a roller coaster ride with ups and downs..

slept for 2 hrs out of 48.. for the last 2 days... when i wanted to just sleep, i would roll around.. my head would be heavy.. symptoms of tension i believe.. because of that, after yesterday which in my last post, i stated would be my worst exam day, i slept for 10 hrs that night.. really nice sleep haha.. =) really tiring though.. to go into the exam hall tired and wish i could get more sleep.. nearly fell asleep during my maths paper 2 =P.. had to go wash my face..

for the last 2 days, i personally think that i made it through maths... as in i think it was sufficient to earn me what i wanted.. but for physics. oh my goodness.. it was terrible.. part of my insomnia was due to my physics paper which kinda traumatised me.. looking back at the paper i wish there were things i could have changed.. perhaps question choice and answers.. even though i cannot make anymore changes but sometimes these things tend to haunt u.. and its doing so to me right now.. its one of those cases where u slap ureself on the head after u knew u had made a mistake instantly after u handed ure paper.. and in my case.. it was not a mistake.. it was quite a lot of mistakes.. =(...but undeniably the paper was tough.. according to everybody in the physics stream.. the students in bio got a freakishly easy paper though.. it ain't fair.. =(

looking back at the effort i put in for this exams.. i kinda put in more than what i did in sem 1.. especially for the physics paper.. i ran through the whole thing twice. and spent a lot of time on doing the exercises etc etc.. but somehow i seemed to do much worse compared to my previous sem.. i don't know.. really.. i have prayed before i did the paper.. 5 mins before i started i laid my hands on the paper, putting it in God's hands and well.. i gave my all during the paper and i personally hope that God will miraculously give me wat i deserve now.. =).. though the aftermath its really kinda frustrating and i get fidgety when i think bout it now.. i pray that God will give me peace.. and strength to finish of the 2 days i have left..

part of these feelings come from the pressure of not gettin the course of my choice if i don get that perfect cgpa of 4.0.. which requires an A for all 3 core subjects.. i applied for pharmacy in USM in Penang..and that definitely requires a 4.0 cgpa.. i got that 4.0 for sem 1.. and now i have to get it again.. arrrghhh.. and looking at that situation and experience i had yesterday.. i don't know whether that is possible now.. but when i was messaging David yesterday.. he said something that actually summarized the whole thing up.. bout how i should feel bout this whole thing... He said :

" God has willed for all of these to happen.. its included in His plan.. so whether u get that 4.0 or not, He will still ensure that u get the course that He wants u to do.. according to His plan.. if by not getting the perfect score ensures that u walk in His plan, then so be it.. "

Kinda true isn't it.. i don't need to really care bout what happens after this.. watever i have done is done and now is in God's hands.. He will point my direction for me.. and if it means failing me to get my attention then so be it. =)

p.s my definition of fail means not getting an A.. (LOL)..because i have no other option.. hehe.

through this all i prayed and still is praying that watever i get brings glory to God.. because all this is for Him..

countdown : 4 days to home
2 days till exam ends


agape..

opening ceremony

yeps.. i've just started my finals for 2nd sem.. jus finished english paper which i don really care about.. cause it doesn't affect my CGPA.. (cummulative grade point average)

i don know what to say.. i've studied my utmost best and i fear that the questions may be like super tough.. cos to be honest, i havent really covered everything in the syllabus.. tomo is gonna be the worst exam day because of physics 2 and maths 2 on the same day.. which is very taxing.. coz.. both require a lot of study.. thank God i nearly finished my physics already but for maths.. oh my goodness.. paper 2 content, i have like 2 more chapters to cover and also lots of practice to do.. so i don't know how i am gonna manage my time tonight.. =(.. a bit worried on which subject i am gonna focus on..

wednesday is a holiday.. not really a holiday though..its just that Melaka has a public hol on that day so practically we have to take a break too. coz this exam is standardized around the matriculation colleges in the whole of Malaysia.. =)

But seriously after tomo i will be more relaxed.. coz the final day(friday) is gona be chem.. and for that suject i have adi revised most of it.. what is left is just the front part.. =)

After friday i am gonna stay over for one more night becoz i have a uni entry test i have to.. sort of a personality test to see whether i am suited for the course of my choice.. that will be on Saturday.. after the test during noon, i will be going to Kuantan for the night with my gang of frens here.. we are going to the beach for one final gathering.. then on Sunday i will take a bus back to KL.. and thats when i will be back for good. =).. really really looking forward to that.. i can't really remember when was the last time i could just sit back and relax and don need to think about my studies.. lol..

On the other hand, i got the offer to become a facilitator for the orientation week for the new students of 2009/2010.. pretty cool considering the fact that i still remember my orientation week.. really fresh too in my memory.. only 5 chinese got chosen out of 15+ applications and 3 were from the student council.. so that must be God wanting me to leave something in my chinese juniors..
p.s not being racist here.. its just that the chinese facis will be the one taking after the Chinese students most of the time.. so yea.. =)

and on the bright side i will get a chance to come back to this coll for a while to see the next batch of youngsters who are gonna experience what i went through last year.. homesickness la.. tiredness la.. etc etc.. but that will be from 6th may till 16th may..

and YAY i will be going to Pulau Redang in at the end of June with some of my friends.. 20 -30 of them.. june 23-25.. it will be my first time to Redang and i hope it will be a blast.. =D

thats all for now.. wish me all the best..it will be super pressurizing these few days.. but i believe that God will give me strength and wisdom to persevere the remaining 4 days.. =)

Oh.. before i forget.. i heard that the production for Easter back in KL was awesome.. if any of u guys have the CD.. i wan pinjam k? =)

and also just wanna take this opportunity to wish u guys a belated blessed easter..

Thank U Lord for the change U brought to this earth 2000+yrs ago.. when u gave the only son that U had.. for us..that we will have a hope.. and a second chance..


agape..

post # 100

a bit of blog history

i started this blog not long after i first stepped here in Pahang.. now i am two weeks from leaving this place and at post no.100.. meaningful huh.. at least to me.. since i have actually posted 100 posts here.. =)

when i was writing this post, memories flashed back on how it all started, orientation week, the barbeque at the beachside.. moments with my beloved Daddy in heaven, all those posts that made my blog what is it today...

no i don't have a thank u list.. haha.. cause i only have one person in mind to thank, and in fact, He is not even a person, He is God... everything that i have been through, He planned it for me, everything that i am going to achieve, He will lay out one by one... my future, my plans, all in His hands.. =).. i am who i am because of His perfect plan..

heard a lot about my friends back in KL.. =P.. seems like i missed a lot of things happening, for example, Michael, my buddy in church, black.. =P.. got into a band with my other friends in KL, all from the same church, they are called A Mile Away, and trust me this bunch of people are good.. I've seen them grow in the music ministry and their talent is amazing.. advertising for them pulak.. =S.. but yeah.. they are one good bunch =D.. hope u guys have a blast together making music and also learn something through this process.. =).. when u get famous don't forget me.. =P

p.s1 i heard bout the band thing from IR night which i also accidently stepped across through someone's blog..

kinda not been to classes this week coz its the last week of class and the lecturers are just plainly doing revision which i rather do myself in the room.. =).. my routine is kinda messed up nowadays, sleeping at 4-5am getting up at noon.. haha.. but yeah.. it seems to do me better, so i will still continue it.. hope i have time to complete studying everything.. so much memory work this time compared to sem 1 where it was all bout calculation and less theory..

p.s 2 memory power is my weakness, sometimes i forget things that i have done 10 mins ago.. =0

people ask me how do i cope with this life that is so stressful and there is even hardly time to breathe especially during the exam period, coz its a lot to learn and study given such a short period of time.. but what keeps me really going is that :

I AM DOING THIS FOR GOD!!

Thats what matters, for His glory and His alone..



agape..

Happy April Fool!

lol... hope u guys don't get fooled =P




agape..

23,18,7... the countdown

hey all =)

long since i've posted huh..have been quite busy going by the same routine of class - eat - study - sleep.. to the point where i din even touch my laptop (at least not until i studied enuff)... even at this point i am blogging at the library.. coz now i can't study another word.. too sickening..

23,18,7 -- a set of numbers which i somehow find quite significant for now and gives me mixed feelings thinking bout it haha.. =O

7 - 7 days of classes to go and i am done with classes in this matriculation college.. no more lectures, tutorials, lab sessions. don know whether to be happy or sad.. happy coz i already had enuff of classes.. i don feel the oomph to go for classes anymore nowadays in this coll.. sad because its next week is gonna be the last week with my classmates and lecturers as a class though i would say time flies till the extent i din really have time to bond strongly with them, nevertheless, there were still moments.. i can still remember the first day of class last year in May and now i hope that i remember the last day of class next week..

18 - 18 days till finals.. exams coming up soon.. its gonna be a tough one this second sem.. i have already started studying and i still feel that time is insufficient.. for those that know me well, i don start studying this early.. i usually start like 2 weeks before the exam coz i am one of those ppl that can remember a lot of things in a short period of time but also forget it very fast... i really thank God that He gave me the will to start early.. if not i will be even more jittery than i am now.. after getting a 4.0 for sem 1, sem 2 is indeed a lot of pressure.. coz i will be aiming for the same score and for me to get the course that i wanna do in my uni, that score is not an option liao.. =(.. its a must.. too much competition..

23- 23 days till i permanently come back to KL. thats wat i am looking forward to la.. though i will miss some of the really good friends that i have made here.. its been a life journey, learning and living with u guys.. appreciate every moment we've all had together.. definitely will not forget each and everyone of u, jus remember to stay in touch.. =D.. Its gonna be a minimum of 3 months that i will be spending in KL, then i will see where God leads me for uni.. if He leads me to Penang, then i will have to go.. if He wills me to stay back in KL, awesome.. i will be close to home.. =)..




agape..

taking time out

as the title says.. i won't be frequently updating any more.. with the first reason being exams coming up in a months time and i need ta work hard for the final stretch

i may post once in a while but it will not be often..

2nd reason being i nowadays quite malas to sign in and post new things about my life here.. its kinda gonna be the same routine for the next month.. eat sleep study etc etc.. boringness but owh well. 1 month.

joy is the next time i will be seeing u guys in KL will be the time when i am permanently back to serve.. no more Pahang boy la.. =).. it will be a whole 3 months of KL KL and KL.. then i will see where God leads me to for my uni life.. it will either be in Penang or in KL.. both also close to home.. =)..

i can't wait for the next month when everything finishes.. till then! =D


agape..

post CNY thoughts and lessons

haven been blogging much recently.. so many things have happened but i have so little time to blog them out.. i wish i could write and write and write and write.. but anyways.. i can only provide u guys with a short update..

last monday.. dinner night. It was indeed a night of sharing and remembering those experiences that we went through.. a night of gratefulness.. This dinner was held to celebrate the success we all tasted through the CNY night.. and also the pesta tanglung which was like so long ago.. but true enough.. we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly.. pics will be in the "picture post" i have been talking about.. promise it will be around after this week.. but i didn't take many photos. =(..

Through this event.. the Chinese in this college has proved that though we are small in number, great achievements are not rendered impossible.. through this event, we are united in our hearts as a community that can stand up to bring a difference. Bonds have been formed that will never be broken.. A long journey till this day that was filled with countless moments.. i was very touched at the video that summed up our preparations for the whole event.. mixed emotions ran through the hall as all of us watched that 20 min long video..

ok.. enough bout all that blabbing.. as a conclusion to sum up the whole thing, this event has brought us together, and though we are leaving in a months time for good and won't be seeing each other again, i just hope that these memories will remain and brought out of the college.. its way too much of a waste to leave it behind... =)

the rest of the week just went by like normal.. i remember how last time during my sec school days, 12am will be considered as super super late already.. nowadys.. its like " wah, 12am only a.. still early nia.. " LOL. lets put it this way.. with my group of friends, i am sleeping at 2am daily and waking up at 7am.. i can't attempt wat i tried to do in Semester 1.. which was sleeping 2-3 hrs a day.. i jus can't anymore.. its wayyy too tiring..

during the weekend, me and my gang of friends went out to Kuantan, had an awesome bowling session.. 12 people bowling together.. many interesting styles were observed =D.. i didn't videotape it as they wanted it to be private.. hehe.. x)

ok.. i think i will leave it for now.. need to start lab class already.. byes! =D



agape..

the end.. relieved

awesome night yesterday..thank God..=D the only error that occurred was an occasional delay in the playing of the songs but overall it was a blast.. super tiring but all worth it..

i didn't take many photos... but i will be going around blogs, friendsters and facebooks looking for pics to compile..

looking forward to tonight's dinner.. a celebration.. of all the hard work that we have put in.. hopefully it will be a rewarding night =)


agape..

quick update

just a small update larh.. =)


yesterday night was the full-dress rehearsal for the CNY celebration night thats gonna be held this Sunday... i don know larh.. but yesterday nite was strewn with technical errors. and since i was on the technical team and also the only guy who spent the most time in the control room upstairs.. guess who got flamed? (no prizes =D)..

not gonna justify myself.. but 50% of the errors weren't caused by "human error" rather the computers chose to misbehave by for example randomly jumping to another song in the middle of one (right in the middle of the dance too!! =( .. )

i wish i could scream and shout out loud that regardless of what happens.. performers.. retain your composure on stage.. chill out and know that we are trying our best and sweating it out trying to make things work out for u. and we won't give up without a fight! k? and thats a promise. This is not the time to push responsibilities towards each other or to find fault with each other.. come on larh. we are one big team.. =) lovey-dovey (eww.. =P)

but thank God for friends who stood by me.. understanding everything that was going on.. i will not choose to name.. (i fear tat if i miss out some people they may be unhappy.. )u know who u all are and i deeply appreciate it.. thanks.. =D



agape..

thankful

Happy belated valentines day!

p.s 19th valentines day single and proud of it. =D



Results for mid sem test came out today.. it wasn't awesome.. but it was not too bad either.. Thank God for that.. =).. i expected a lot worse.. i din get straight A's.. but i din get a B either. it was around A- B+ so-so kind of results.. even though somehow deep inside i felt that i should not have made so many careless mistakes.. cos the papers were relatively very easy.. in fact the hardest paper which was maths earned me an A.. LOL.. but nevertheless i now choose to be content and just look forward.. this makes up 10% of my finals but with my results, it earned me a minimum of 7 out of 10.. so not too bad hehe..

Saturday night was a blast. Wah Loong (Jack)..my best pal at matriculation won the KMPh idol singing competition.. woots! ~ the support he got from both the songs he sung, which were "when u say nothing at all" and "Kau Ilhamku".. man.. i also got to know a couple of new friends that night.. =).. but to have a friend actually win a singing competition which he was put against not only the students but also the staff of the college.. i am really beyond words..

p.s. i am gonna be singing with him on CNY reunion dinner night (next monday).. b4 the singing competition, i felt no pressure.. now.. its like..(i am gonna be singing beside a competiton winner..o_O)..

no time to go down to the room to plug into the cable which can enable me to upload pics fast.. but when i do it will be a mega upload.. =)


Whisper of my heart
"I could have chosen to mourn or linger in sorrow but i have chosen to bask in Your joy, for what i have today is Yours and for Your glory alone.. "




agape..

our time is running out~

no time to post!!!!!!!!!!!! =(.. i reeeeaaalllly wanna update those pics.. T__T.. nvm.. it will have to wait.. =)






p.s Kerlee.. take care yea.. don keep on falling sick.. =(... love ya lots too.. =D





agape..

of birthdays and celebrations

Happy Birthday Kerlee! =)

thanks for being an awesome friend that always never failed to make me smile and never failed to brighten my day.. i thank God for bringing u into my life.. =D continue to live life strong and well as u celebrate ure 19th year.. (old =P)

sry i am one day late.. no time to do a post yesterday.. =(

In comp lab now.. having class.. lecturer is blabbing on and on bout photoshop.. something so commonly used to edit and touch up photos (at least for me la).. jus came from Kerlee's birthday celebration at the cafeteria.. best thing is, some of my high school friends and her boyfriend (my ex primary and high school mate) + her best friends came to our college from KL just to visit her.. that was great effort.. driving all the way..

yesterday night was a blast..and a tiring one.. Ponggal night.. upload photos later on. =) cos i am in the lab now and can't do it. will do it tonight though...

was again put in the technical team.. lots of running up and down.. shouting into the walkie talkie. my friend, also my co-partner leading the team was literally barking orders.. haha.. but owh well.. job pressure lasted for the moment only.. after the whole thing was over, everything was forgotten, was an awesome event in whole.. we took this as a prelude to improve on our upcoming Chinese New Year.. learn from our mistakes eh? =)

i have great respect for the Indians of our college.. a very talented bunch.. with less than 20 ppl, they could handle a big event such as this and managed to collect funds worth RM1000 in total for an orphanage.. i salute them.. their performances were powerpacked, the backdrops and decor of the hall was detail and pretty, the order of the event very well planned and the pre-competitions were handled very well.. =D U guys made history by organising the first Indian festival celebration in the college...

Last friday, went back to my high school's, CF (Christian fellowship)..both David and myself handled the whole session.. David shared about the importance of bringing God glory in everything that we do, and shared also bout the change God brought into His life.. and in the end i shared too bout the importance of standing up to God's call regardless of age and closed them by asking them to offer their lives to be used for God's glory.. it was an awesome session... and especially it was those young people from Form 1- Form 3 that turned out.. the feeling of seeing the effects of our prayers and our efforts back when we were in Form 5 can't be described by words.. pure joy and hope.. All glory to God.. =)

shucks..only 1 hr of class has passed by updating this and surfing the net.. got another hour to endure..T_T.. till tonight.. =)



agape..

my 2 weeks of hols

warning: long post ahead..(not really).. rather

------> warning: post is full of words..din take any pics. sorry =X

what did i do with my 2 weeks of hols..

practically i din have much online access because my old house is under renovation and the phone line is stuck there.. i had better online access second week cause most of the renovation work done already.. =)

went to sam's place for fellowship =P.. 3 nights.. haha.. well not consecutively la.. haha.. but yeah.. had a great time there.. =).. as always.. there was those usual debates..=O.. pointless ones that lead to nowhere. lol..

watched criminal minds like crazy.. from 12am i would watch to 3am or 4am.. =P.. its full of suspense la.. its keeps one craving.. =P

went out to celebrate Julia's b'day.. at Nandos.. Bangsar Village.. Her boyfriend made the cake.. nice one too.. =D.. p.s He is a culinary student.. but that was like WOW.. haha.. delicious.. a LOT of icing.. =O

failed mw20..only certain ppl understand this.. but its not relevant to most here.. so i won't explain it.. let those who know it laugh at me.. =(.. 160m nia.. T__T

had reunion dinner.. the mums all cooked.. haha.. long since we last ate home-cooked food.. x). personally.. i would rather stick to eating out next time lorh.. its not that their food sucks.. its really nice.. =).. but the process or preparing it and cleaning up.. we ended up playing card games to clear the food.. like who loses gets the penalty of eating such an amount etc etc..

went bowling with Wah Loong.. nothing significant here.. but it was something i craved for and i love.. so had to do it la.. no matter wat =D

first post of the year

haha.. ppl generally post on 1st Jan.. but no time lar for me to update.. furthermore the internet was down for the past 3 days or so.. haha..

test next week.. mid sem test.. its gonna be freakishly tough cause we are gonna be tested on new stuff... stuff that we've never learnt before.. as in during our SPM days.. *fingers crossed* praying hard..

the weather here has been so bad... its been raining continously for the past 3 days.. no floods thank God.. but i've been hit with bad flu and the worse thing was the flu didn't just come and go with a one time medication.. it disappeared, reappeared.. kinda irritating.. and its the kind of flu that leaves u tearing and having bad headaches.. haihx.. its hard to do assignments like this. but thank God things have gotten better.. =)

not much time to type a lot.. in the comp lab right now for class though the lecturer doesn't care wat we do.. haha.. i fell asleep once.. =P.. but he din seem to care.. haha..guessed he knew that wat he was teaching was super boring as well.. its those basic stuff bout computing, word processes.. excel, powerpoint.. and the next thing i am in dreamland.. =D

update more later.. =)
