Random Blessing

2009-08-24T18:14:00.003+08:00

I believe blessings come disguised and often are not unknown the hour the second it comes. Yet again, whether a blessing or not, it depends on ones interpretation. Big or small, blessing is a blessing. And I truly feel blessed… At this moment, should you too feel blessed, please give thanks~ Cause I truly can’t stop giving thanks to the utmost high…

The week before last week, my brother was here. And guess what, following that, my parents came! And we had a heck of a time…

My mom n Dad

Friends

Speaking of which... a friend of mine left to UK for studies...

Chui Yen

Well, wish her all the best... and... lets hope she reads this... :P

Then, guess what, while shopping, Dad told me to take a picture of this little handsome... Hehehe

The baby gave all three expressions!

Seeing the pictures, reminds me of life... Life's full of ups and down... we must smile, laugh and cry... then only we can know what is blessing... how is it that we know what is bitter without knowing what is sweet?

And in life, when times are really bitter, while anticipating for our life's Doraemon... we must work hard... Cause in the end... Nobita grew up without Doraemon... little did he knew.. actually... Doraemon ran out of battery...

thus, i hope my post has been entertaining enough... Till then...

BUSY

2009-06-26T13:26:00.005+08:00

忙

BUSY… that was the word that describes best the life I had for the past ONE Month… Occupied with itineraries… Indeed I am amazed with the profound wisdom in the Chinese character. A word itself can contain much meaning. Take this busy word for instance. Busy is a word that comprises the word heart and dead. Literally, the heart is dead. In another word… No life… X.X
Charged with itineraries to complete daily, it is indeed tiring... It’s like time is running out! And yet there is so much to do! @.@

Well anyways, for now, at least one of the biggest worry has been put down by half- EXAM Indeed, exam makes my heart dead. Dead in a sense, there are so much other things you want to do. BUT because of exam, you have to put down so many things and put them to dead mode for the period of time until the exam ends.

Nevertheless, there are things that rebuild me… above all, the Word of God and Friends… who gives in their support, their LOVE, their care, their companion… Indeed, the journey, when walked together, does seem to be easier…

And at such moment, I just have the feeling that I am so blessed! To have been ‘rewarded’ such bunch of friends… And it is in times like these that I feel indebted to them for their support for me.. And as for me, what have I done?

All I can say is THANK YOU! And the least I could do was PRAY for them and that The Lord God will keep them well… And I know He would…

Look who's back?

2009-05-18T01:14:00.006+08:00

Yeap... Look who's back... a long gone friend who was a big hit since she was transferred to my primary school...

Before she even came back.. she has already planned all her days in Malaysia... Whoa! And in a glimpse of time, she is here! ALREADY~ All is well... except for me... My assignment due date! Boo hoo...

Anyways... we managed to meet up.. and i promised her pictures... and updates on my blog... here u go.. Burb day girl!

*The write ups were done on 16 May 2009 but due to some technical error... here's the late post....

NO Worries... she hasn't changed~ Much~ still a BIG bully...

Blind Leading the Blind 2009

2009-04-28T11:49:00.005+08:00

I can't help but was too busy occupied with many things recently... Here's a back dated post from me... Late is better than never isn't it? Ngaaa... hahaha... Anyways... On 19 April 2009 (Sunday) morning, as early as 7 AM, The organizers and participants started to gather at PJ Civic hall to partake the annual Blind Leading the Blind. Having being held here the 7th Time, the number seems ever growing by year!

I managed to test out the new 85mm 1.8 and following are the results! Of course some group photos are by the 17-85... hehehe... Rather i talk so much... let the pics talk... Hope u all enjoy the pics...

Photography is indeed wonderful... especially when u don't take photographs.. but you CREATE them!

Yup, The Lions have been in Malaysia for 50 Years... and the Organizer Lions Club of Petaling Jaya is the Oldest Lions Club existing in Selangor!

The Blinds were suppose to lead the lay people to walk... but due to over-whelming response... there weren't enough Blinds to lead the lay.. so... the Lay are blind folded to lead the lay... It was a meaning-ful way for the lay to experience 'darkness' for an hour and a half while changing with the partner the blind-fold at 1.5 KM...

The crowd bringing their banner to parade and tell the public of the campaign... Imagine... A world without color!

To make it merrier, the Brass band are invited to play along the way to the end point! This signifies the Blinds who can't see but depends on their hearing for direction!!! what a meaningful event...

Thats how it was...

LOOK at the crowds!!! @.@

These girls are from Leo club of SMK Assunta... they purposely prepared the poster just for the event! How supportive!!

Thats a group photo of Leos from Leo club of Monash University and Lions from Lions club of PJ Mutiara... the Sponsoring Lions club for the Monash Leos...

Till then... If you have a chance.. pls remember to participate in the event!!!

Trip to Mdm Kang in Kamunting, Perak

2009-04-24T01:26:00.003+08:00

On 13 April 2009, together with the Leos of Monash university and Lions of Pj Mutiara, we went to Kamunting, Perak about 4 Hours ride from Sunway City to support the cause of Mdm Kang whom at the age of 67 walks her cause of sheltering close to 200 dogs with all her life savings and some support of the kind-hearted community. Merely coping with life herself, Mdm Kang loves her dogs so much so that she dedicated her life to protect these dogs from being abused, dumped or some case, 'tortured to death'... Every Dog that Mdm Kang takes in has a story of its own.. to which Mdm Kang gives each of it a name and she remembers them ALL... While those of us with a dog or a fish at home, Mdm Kang is taking care of more to 200 of them...

Below are some of the pictures from our visit... and of course along the way... we have some fun in Ipoh before returning back to Sunway...

(Clockwise from the top) Mdm Kang and Leo June, the Organising chairperson for the trip

Thats me and Mdm Kang...

A curious Dog from Mdm Kang's place...

The famous 'Nga Chio Kai" Ipoh Bean Sprout Chicken rice (Notice the fat bean sprout which when put into your mouth sprouts out sweet juice of the Bean Sprout. It is the signature dish of Ipoh)

Me buying the famous Salt-baked Chicken (YIM KOK KAI).... For only RM16, you get a whole chicken!!! It tastes fantastic... with lovely blend of chinese medical herbs... The Chicken was baked with hot salt that was pre-heated to the level that it was able to cook the chicken and then it forms a solid case around the chicken... A special method used by the chinese cooks to enhance the flavour of the chicken and also to bring out the essence of the chicken! MUST try in IPOH!!!

Trip to PD

2009-04-21T15:42:00.003+08:00

Stay tuned... Meanwhile.. here u go...

Business as Charity?

2009-04-10T00:00:00.000+08:00

Ever thought of shopping and making our world a better place to live in? Sounds impossible? Here is the BEST example. Elevyn (pronounced as "eleven") is using fair trade online stores to provide a platform to raise money for social causes. Elevyn provides a worldwide market managed by the people for the people and in between, Elevyn connects NGOs to channel the funds to the needed field.

How is that possible?

Elevyn deduce part of the sales called the Social Return on Investment (SROI) and channel it to a specific fund for the community benefit. "Raise $100 to buy books for the school" is a good example. Specific fund such as this will be setup to fund-raise for the specific purpose for the PEOPLE!

Not only so, Elevyn also aims at promoting the local artisans. Often are not the middle man overrides the hard work the artisan labor on. At Elevyn, the artisans get to market their own work and ideas.

If you still don’t understand, the diagram below may be able to help illustrate the whole process.

GO and TELL!!!
Now that you’ve understand the whole process, let’s not waste time. Be an ambassador and tell people about it!

2009-03-24T01:01:00.004+08:00

Other than my parents and my family, another of my greatest blessing i count is having a bunch of really close bunch of friends... this year, they have made the effort to 'pre-book' me and actually brought me to Genting Highlands...

It's one of the most stunning for me... hahaha... hope u enjoy it as much as i do...

Kite Flying

2009-02-13T23:29:00.002+08:00

Sunshine... after weeks of moody n cloudy weather... Well, it was then when we finally made it to fly the kites.. so a bunch of friends whom had nothing much better to do went kite flying...

Nevertheless, as usual... Kite flying usually end up losing the kite... Ghi Waie lost his nice and 'gay' kite... hahaha... Poor thing... Well, as Valentines approaches, kite flying reminds me of a life philosophy where in a relationship...

Both parties needs to know when to let go and pull tight... if pulled or released mistakenly, the kite might fly away... or land... or... even get caught amongst the trees... i have to clarify.. i'm no relationship expert here... but... its just a sort of reflection thingy...

Anyways... here are some photos... hope u enjoy them...

And finally the sun sets... becoz Ghi waie kissed it... and it hid itself for the day... kekeke... just joking...

CNY 2009 Koinonia

2009-02-09T09:30:00.005+08:00

No matter where i go, it seems fellowship is happening all around me... Recently, i partake in the CNY 2009 Cell Group celebration at my parents cell group... It was a full of nourishment one... be it physically or spiritually... The theme was SEAFOOD!!! Geez... wat a meal it was... and after the meal, we had Bible quizes and Sharing of testimony... In addition, it was a Combined Cell Group!

*Just in case some of u don't understand wat Koinonia mean... it is actually a greek word for common, public, sharing... Originally read as Koinos... When used as Koinonia.. meaning Fellowship.. i actually prefer to use laymen term for my blog.. but i suppose using a 'kewl' word for the tile might attract ppl to read... :P

That night... we Fellowship, Worship, Discipleship, Ministry & Evangelise...

Anyways... took some photos... hope u enjoy them...

Till then...

* I now realize it's not easy to be a journalist... and a photographer... especially when u are busy and u need to process the photo and then write up and post it up within the time frame... before the deadline... : P nevertheless, it is an enjoyable one... hope u all are enjoying it... God Bless!!!

CNY 2009 Part 2

2009-02-05T23:08:00.009+08:00

hey hey hey... i'm back... kekeke... Well, it's been raining and raining AND..... Raining... saying goes that when your beloved ones leave... and if it rains, it means, that person is your sunshine... (actually i made it up... Kekeke... Gotcha!!!) And so, good times flies... truly... It was like Year 2008 was just next door... and we just stepped into 2009... BUT as a matter of fact... a month has passed since New Year... Chinese New year too has come and gone...

Same goes to me friends who came back... left and came back.. AND... left... the 3 cute and pretty ones... Anyways.. We had fun...

More Fun...

And More more fun...

And More more more fun...

AND then... it was time...

They flew off... Boo... Like a box of chocolate... once finished, uve got no choice but to savor the good memories.. and if u're lucky, u MIGHT find back the same flavor... but the next time you take it.. it may not be the same as the 1st time when u have it...

AND then, i had to stay home and no one else to shoot but to shoot on some still objects...

Here u go...

FU= Prosperity, Lu= Generational Bliss, Shou= longevity... The three deity is often placed at home by the chinese... Legend goes that by possessing the three, one is the most happy person on earth... But how true is that? To me... The truth shall set us free... The way, the truth and life shall prevail...

The Buddhist believe that Matreiya is the coming buddha... he will be the one whom will replace Amitabha Buddha to preach in the next world... but as Matreiya origins from India... Matreiya evolved to be a Fat one when it reached China as the chinese believes fat symbolizes prosperity... and fat at one point in the history of China regarded as beauty...

This Eagle Wine Jar is a Solid jar made of bronze...

This Wine Jar was brough out of China by my Grandpapa... it is made of pure lead... superlight...

DA BAI NIAN

2009-02-03T00:38:00.006+08:00

And when people grow up, of course people start to get curious at each others marital status... and some checking on availability... While some found love... some lost it.. and some really indulging in it...

Well no matter wat... it still seems friendship is most reliable.. a ship tat seems to be too good to be on board... Nevertheless, even Titanic which claims to be unsinkable sank... Well, i guess nothing last forever... and good times flies... hope you'll appreciate it while u can..

CNY 2009

2009-01-31T01:16:00.002+08:00

MOoo.. Mooo... Mooo... bye it goes for the year of the Rat... Here's a montage of the photos i took with me friends... will soon do some write up.. it's sure late... and good times flies!!! Here u go...

Photo fever? or CNY fever?

2009-01-22T13:46:00.014+08:00

Yesterday was a heck of day of photo shooting... due to the few days of continuous rain and dark i stayed in and do most of the reading... Been watching out on other photographer's blog and enjoying other shutter bugs' artwork... I do think photographers are artist... Just somewhat easier if compared relatively with the painters or sculptors...

I mean take an artist, who needs time for inspiration, skills and time to draw and paint the artwork... for shutter bugs.. it's less taxing... though in a way, it's kinda hard and takes time and skills to produce a masterpiece...

Well, anyway... yesterday was a bright shining day with nice clear sky.. i had the opportunity to capture some nice photos (i think there are still room for improvement)... Here you go... (proudly presented for you from the shore of Miri City)

Thats the color i was looking for... the golden crisp... BUT... not yet the best... i stil think the angle and perspective can be improved... What u think?

Me Dad and me... as always...I like the sky colors and the wood being lit...

The skies...

The gradual changes in the sky color...

May look like the same couple.. but.. actually different...
The bride left her shoes on shore while she went to the waters to shoot... someone indicate this picture looks like someone wanted a suicide by submerging the waters.. (kekeke... )

The couples posing while the photographer shoot them...

Hey guess what? i managed to meet 2 (TWO) couples who were doing their outdoor photoshoot as well.. AND they are Canon-nites! Weeee~

That was it... the sun went down the horizon...

And as if not enough.. after dinner... i went to Miri's Chinese New Year Market at High Street... The market is our local attraction every chinese New Year a collaboration between Miri Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry with The Miri City Council.. i must credit the City council for their effort in bringing this market in as an annual event... it really makes this city alive! It really indicate the spirit of Chinese New Year...

Not to forget the continuous performances on the main stage area to keep the public entertained... I dunno about other cities in Miri.. this market really calls in for a Big attraction for both locals and tourists!!!

Here are some photos... enjoy them...

Some new floats being placed at the entrance... woo...

It's 4 MORE days to Chinese New Year... and it's already so many people... i can't imagine the last day for the market!!!

This cute boyadmiring the chinese new year decoratives...

A MUST... the chinese symbol for gold and prosperity... "kam"

According to the owner, this is a new breed of orchid... really nice! At a first glance, it looks fake..cause it's so perfect!!! BUT at a closer look! My gosh... they are real... they smell good!

For western Culture, these are carved and displayed during Halloween, but for the chinese, this is 'Ong' means Gold and lucky!

CNY Goodies...

CNY Decorations being sold...

Cute Cute 'Chai Shen' (Deity of prosperity)

Mini Lion Dance

Commerce in process...

The Dragon Dance presented by The Miri Wushu Association...

Faithful Grandpa who loves his grand daugther...

Well... Thats it for today... stay tuned... hopefully i'll be able to capture more for you all out there... Happy house Cleaning... and decorating!!! AND buying too... :P

Ushering the Oxen Year

2009-01-17T21:45:00.008+08:00

Let there be light was God's method of creating light.. and since then, the dark was separated from the light... from that moment i believe was when things could be seen and it is the FUNDAMENTAL of photography... As Chinese New Year is striking near, the Miri market seem like a scene of people bracing for the coming of black parade rather than a a merry parade... i manage to take some photos after attending a banquet of my father's friend... Just to update the blog... Here you go...

Pictures of the Dance performers (Love her expression X-P)

Then, we went hunting for CNY Scenes~

Lanterns for New Year~

It's the Golden Oxen Year!

Surely in a wink of eye, time flies again.. 2008 is already history…

Bye 2008~

Cheers to 2009!

This year, I got to get an opportunity to do the ‘countdown’ with 3 pretty gals whom I always hang out with… These are my friends since secondary.. but have met thru in kindergaten… Anyways, it’s amazing how God has placed us together…

And after the new year, it wasn’t long when the girls are back in KL studying while I remain doing house chores and pursuing my photography… Here are some flicks… enjoy them…

Went to Ulu Mulu to take some photo of the sea horse...

That's a Nice Mural design on the wall...

Red Wood (Kayu merah) used to construct the place... Solid and original!

Mum, my usual Model...

Then, i had the opportunity to visit Tanjung in the evening...

I actually wanted to visit the 'Tanjung Lobang' a cave near the cliff... but it was a high tide!!!

Since i can't go to the cave.. i ended up testing shutter speed.. and shooting the waves...

The day ended with Rain...

Then I had the 1^st cell group dinner on 2^nd day of 2009 with my parents’ cell of course… By the way, Shu Jun, Daniel, Feleh, Rachel and Darren, I miss you guys too!!!

Fellowship prior to dinner~

The braised pork Feet specialty from Uncle James

One for the album!

everyone preparing for the dinner

And by the way, guess what, I had the opportunity to meet KING tide this year… it’s terrifying.. but at the same time.. very exciting!!! Here are the photos~

Life Methodist Church.. the newest erected church in city!!!

The 1st scene as i arrive there... The Beach, as i recall was about a a few metres away from where i stand and took the picture.. but NOW, it's way so inward!!!

Scene of Fishermen worrying about the next day's catch... no catch... no meals...

While some kept their nets well...

The fisherman's son... looking at the way Mother nature reacts to men's greed and evilness~

I do think life as a Fishermen is not easy... Times like this, they have no stable income and they can't fish...

And so, thats where it ended... the sky turns dark and i had to go home for dinner... Thats all for now... Hope you'll tune in again...

Till then..

X'mas 2008

2008-12-30T10:44:00.005+08:00

Christ wasn’t born on Christmas day to be exact… but in such a case where theologians and historians were not able to determine the exact day Christ the Savior was born…. Anyways FYI Christmas was actually an ancient Pagan Worship day… but due to the greatness of mass conversion as well as the glory of the triumph of the gospel, 25Dec became the day when Christ the savior was born.

This year, I got the opportunity to celebrate and count down on Christmas eve with my bunch of fellow good friends, Shirley, Song, Sze and Casper… All whom we have known each other for almost a decade… Some exceeding a decade… that’s half my life already! WHOA~

Then, we planned a BBQ during Christmas, which in the end turned out to be Steamboat as I start to perceive BBQ as unhealthy due to the carbon that we consume… And with the addition of exchange of Christmas Pressie! Yeah!

And I got a super-cute pen/ pencil holder~ Hahaha…

The Dinner was a sumptuous one… and I almost got my stomach burst! Gee… With the 3 girls, I think I’m growing my waist! HELP!!!

And after the dinner, the chatting session was a wonderful one… We got to talk more about the past and the present… and little bit of the future… Some sheer cheer and some sheer sadness… I guess, we’re growing up…

Growing up is actually not so fun after all… More stuff to worry about… things may never be the same again next year or the years to come... As we all grow…. we’re beginning to live our own life… the ship’s coming apart~!

Anyways… it’s kinda sad to think about it… Let’s just look at now…
Here are some photos for our friends who aren’t around~ Enjoy~

On 17^th December I had the honor to be the photographer for m cousin’s wedding. It was my 1^st assignment for wedding… I was of course more than happy to take up the opportunity as a chance for me to sharpen my skill on photography… Here are some of the photos… Enjoy~

Mulu National Park

2008-12-27T01:28:00.011+08:00

Indeed my summer has been a blessed one.. As if not enough, after I came back from KL after Penang and Malacca trip, my brother actually sponsored me to travel with him along with my cousin who happened to come back from Melbourne, to Mulu National Park.…

It was a superb trip… though I think it’s kinda short. .. Anyways, for those who are hunting for a great place to visit for holidays, I would greatly recommend Mulu National Park… It’s a paradise hidden and not well marketed, in my view.

The flight only took like 15 Minutes to reach the Mulu airport and the airport is much better than some of those those in Sarawak… as we arrived at Mulu Resort, we were greeted with warm towels and cool orange juice while the room is being prepared…
It was really amazing to see a 5-star resort in a midst of no where… The hotel itself was a splendid place to stay… The chalet’s wonderful…

Here are some pics of the hotel…

After lunch, we immediately made our trip to 2 out of 4 famous caves, the Deer and Wind Cave… The walk to the caves was an enjoyable ones… all the way, it was aved with wooden planks.... And along the way, our ‘tour guide’ showed us some interesting features of the park. Like some special tree that produces a type of poison harvested by the Penans (The local indigenous people), used for war and hunting.

A bonus for those who thinks that jungle is filed with mosquitoes… AT Mulu, it’s surprisingly almost 100% mosquitoes free! The reason? THE BATS! Our visit to the Deer caves ends at around 5 or 6 when the Bats fly out of the cave to hunt for their food… According to the guide, not everyone’s so lucky to be able to catch the ‘moment’… as not everyday, the bats fly out to hunt for food… The special thing about the bats flying out for food is the flying formation before they fly out in schools! It’s amazing to see millions and millions of them flying out together and forming before setting out in groups!

Here are some of the pics of the at the caves and bats formations…

The Garden of Eden!

A type of centipede that glows in the dark! Only found in MULU!

After half a day of walking, at night, we had a series of international buffet! PLUS, a series of entertainment that includes dances performances, games and so on…

Here are the pics…

And the following day, we woke up early to catch up on the World longest canopy walk… It was magnificent and majestic…. It just got me wonder… How on earth did they did that! Strings and all that on the top of the trees… just for people like me who couldn’t climb trees… and yet get to enjoy the scenery of the virgin forest up in the trees….

Here are some of the photos… Including the one for Sam, a friend from Chicago… who happens to be visiting Mulu with his wife and parents… (Sam: Sorry… I lost your email…I hope you get this…)

And after that we continue to join the rest of the group who didn’t join the canopy walk at the jetty… AT the Jetty, we took one of the long boats upstream to Lang Cave and the famous Clearwater cave… along the stream, we took the chance of visiting the Penan settlement… The Penans are originally nomads. But due to the Government’s aid and scheme, they are now permanently settled down at the settlement. They live on the National park jobs and some handicrafts as well as hunting… They have wonderful Handicrafts! (It was such a short visit that I couldn’t manage to buy any souvenirs… Only photos…)

As we arrive at the jetty to the 2 caves, I manage to capture a picture of the rare lantern bug. Which was such an opportunity to capture the image at close range…

And after visiting the 2 caves we had lunch at the foot of the entrance to Clear water caves… WOW! How enjoyable… picnic style… Indeed the trip was an enjoyable one… After lunch we were sent back to the Hotel where we bathed and packed home… It was a short trip, but I really felt I enjoyed myself for a few days at Mulu…

Well, that’s it for now… There are still many parts of Mulu undiscovered due to time constraint… places like Sarawak Chamber (the world Largest cave) as well as the Summit of Mulu (which needs 3 days 3 nights) and the pinnacles (another specialty of Mulu)…

Thanks for the trip, Bro!

I guess, I’ll probably have to come back to do that in future if I have the chance… Till then… hope you all love my post…

KL- Penang- Malacca- KL

2008-12-26T17:32:00.003+08:00

Hello everyone... I know.. long time no post… no worries.. I’ll try make it up… to all the bloggers… if you think u can save up and do it later… or post it later… trust me.. u’ll end up like me… NO post! Hahaha…

Anyways… where should I begin? I guess I’ll begin with my trip with my family from KL- Penang- Malacca – KL. To begin with, the trip was tremendously wonderful!

It’s been a LONG LONG time since my family and I went to Penang and Malacca… This time round majorly is to refresh our family trip and bring my sister there and it’s her 1^st time visiting Penang and Malacca.

Anyways… I get to do LOTS of photo shoots this time round and some new places which I think I didn’t go when I visited Penang and Malacca the last time…

Here are some photos…

I do notice Penang Seems to be flooded with “O’ zian” a.k.a. Fried Oyster and Fried Kueh Tiao and the Asam laksa… It’s more common than the food like Wan Tan mee or Chicken Rice…

But it was tasty! Nice! And we get to have a great tour guide… who was our driver for a day… He seems to be always using the word, ‘ALAMAK, Very Taste!’ That was the word of the month.. hahaha…

And not forgetting the ‘dim sum’ at Penang … it was really a heart touching one from the word ‘Dim Sum’… if translated literally, meaning ‘Touching the heart’

Overall, Penang’s a food paradise… Thanks to the location of our hotel, Evergreen laurel Hotel was a Splendid hotel with good location… parallel to G-Hotel and Gurney plaza, where the Food street is… Gurney Drive… My family and I have no regrets staying there…

Later, we went to Malacca… The historic city… really historic… so historic that we find the city dead on Monday… The hotel we stayed in was so quiet… Later we found out that, Malacca is busiest on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, where the Jonker street comes alive and the hotels flooded with people…

Food was just so so in Malacca… except for the chilly mud-crab and the special round rice ball chicken rice… Other than that... just the nice ancient olden building for photo shoots…. Malacca’s filled with the Baba and Nyonya Culture (Chinese mix with Malay) … These food are rich and spicy… maybe its because I don’t fancy stimulating food…

The only regret I have during my trips is that I totally forgot to buy souvenirs for my friends… Was busy buying for my families (Aunts, Uncle, Couzzie) … Sorry, Friends… Garry = Family Guy… Kekeke… So long for KL- Penang- Malacca- KL… till then… stay tune for Mulu National park~

During the last Saturday Night service at FCC, it was my honor and blessing to have witness once again, a play by the Covenant Players. The play was indeed superb! The message was simple and yet clears! We are proud to have Lina, Jimmy and Michelle from Indonesia, Australia and Philippines to perform for us. There were three dramas. With simple props, like Table, chairs and newspapers, they were able to put up a touching heart drama!

TRUMP

2008-10-25T02:26:00.003+08:00

It’s been a long time since I last have had a good post faith station outing… Fuh~

The dinner was good, the chatting, the laughter and most importantly the game. The game of ‘Trump’!!! Please! Not Donald Trump! Okay! It’s the card game!

Prior to that, the busyness and the hectic-ness of the week have almost taken toll of me. Despite a whole day of sleep and watching some interesting YouTube clips, my mind and soul has been restless. The post- faith station session has really refreshed me. My spirit’s fire has been slightly re-kindled. So much stress has come upon me that I think my mind has come to a point of almost shut down!

Nevertheless, the Lord has been good! The game of trump session, took away my burden and transgression for a moment. And also, it refreshes my mind on an issue. It reminds me on a small part of an email which my friends sent me long ago. The line goes, “God will not ask how BIG your house is; Instead, God will ask, How many people have you welcomed into your house”.

I believe that is utmost true. What is the point of having a huge house when there are only a few people who inhabits it? Though some house may be small, but its humbleness welcomes people in, that’s the point of a true warm house. Which I think Brother Sam, Danny and Adele has done a great job!

I really felt welcomed. It was really like a Chinese New Year visitation! The game, the drinks, the food! Oh my! Anyways, thanks for lifting my stress and giving me such an enjoyable time. Time to fight for the coming war! Exams! Wish me all the best!

House Blessings at the Devasers

2008-10-11T11:51:00.003+08:00

Wohoo~ it was sure a fun night doing house blessings at the Devaser's (Paul's family). It was my first time doing it and sure it was an experience... After the stringent procedures.. we had dinner and then sharing...

And boy~ for a long long long long time... since i last had banana leaf and Indian cuisine~ It was a sumptuous one! the best part? we were treated 1st class treatment... with half the shop's waiter serving our table just because i brought my 'babe' out.. hehehe...

Nevertheless, the food was superb~ i love the Vadai and the Resam~ Woooo.... i can still taste it in my mouth! The herbs and the spice~ It was really a 'pow wa' meal~ Then, i got the chance to actually taste the Indian candies which i usually see down the street from KL Sentral to the monorail station across...

It was indeed lovely.. especially the Milk candy~ Gee... it was heavenly... and of course these are 'Melamine- Free' kekeke... the best replacement for the rabiit candy for the moment... just in case some of you out there like it~

Anyways... the trip for house blessings is in fact MORE than just a House blessing! It was more of a sharing and caring journey~ Yuhoo~

MAPCU Taekwando

2008-10-10T00:44:00.004+08:00

I believe i owe many these photos... It was last week's preliminary round of Taekwando Tournament between Malaysian Private Colleges and Universities under MAPCU (Malaysian Association of Private Colleges and Universities) organized by Taekwando Club of Monash University and Taylors College.

It was my opportunity to take some action and sports photos and it was indeed an eye - opening one... Especially the heroic Girls who put up their cool and heroic action-packed competition. Here you go~

The event next will be taking place at Monash University Foyer. It's the Finals... It's deemed to be more exciting! Till then~

Enough!

2008-10-09T00:19:00.004+08:00

It been a hectic week! Fuh, finally the load has been taken off after the submission of my assignment today. Now, begins the nightmare. As the exam week encroaches, revision is a vital step to prevail over the fear of failure. ENOUGH! Is the key! Enough of failing, victory is what I claim for. Nevertheless, been pondering is there a better alternative than exams? Though over the years, this topic has been debated numerous times and it seems exam is still very much around…

Being in the academic world, I do think time is of essence. We are to master a subject within 12 Weeks! From almost nothing, we have to master the unit. So much so I sometimes wonder if books are of use. It’s not like when we pass our exam, we are sure to be good at the practical.
The whole holistic institution is not that intellectual after all. We are merely a few living books which repeat whatever the books have written. No doubt, I am not against examination though. Examinations do play a role in ‘filtering’ some lazy bums who dwell in the holistic body and act to be a drip. It’s really an amazement to see so many types of people in the university.

From group assignments, one will be able to see the assortment of people. Some who makes you love, some who makes you hate. Some who just makes you adore them. I was once told of my purpose in the university is to mould myself. From study, one is able to shape ones many skills. Ability to persevere, communicate, patience and so forth…

Thru the trials and error, one is changed. Of course not everyone goes thru that. Some remained the same. Whilst some really ‘wasted’ their time… and others’ time… thus, I think my experience in the academia world has thus brought me quite far. I have learnt a lot thru the trials and error… I thank God for the opportunities that has step up my door and pls, help me thru it.

Last but not least, I recall my spiritual encounter when my nightmare was haunting and I was terribly terrified. I was shown a particular quote which made everything still for a moment… “If you fail to learn, Learn to Fail”

The lessons we learn from our failures
Are lessons that help us succeed,
And if we are wise and we heed them,
Then failure is just what we need. —D. De Haan

Victor Da Lee

2008-10-02T12:37:00.004+08:00

Hey hey hey.. I'm Back~ On this post, it is to update some pictures that i have taken.. The same as i would like to dedicate this post to my respected Faith Station Leader Victor Da Lee~ hahaha...

I really thank God for giving him the ST5878J... Anyways.. here are some of the photos from his birthday~ Tadaa....

Anyways… it was a splendid day out with all the photographers… Especially a moment of sharing with a News Wire photographer, Encik Shamshahrin Shamsudin, who shared his experience and some of his works over the years!

Glad

2008-07-27T00:45:00.002+08:00

Recently, many have asked of me to update my blog. Of course first of all, I have to apologize for being absent in presenting any of my thoughts. And though due to my 5 weeks of absence in updates, I am indeed glad that many of my fellow readers are still here checking in once in a while to see if I have updated. While some cease to check it so often that they fixed a tracker to inform them as soon as I have updated my blog. Either way, I am grateful for their patience and love in anticipating my update.

Indeed many has occurred and many incidents have taken place. Through that, many inspirations have come and go. What a waste, I truly thought a point. But, what to do, Life’s brief candle. As I have shared particularly with a friend. That has got to be one of the best literature I can still recollect from my high school bench syllabus. I can’t help but to post it here and remind my fellow mates about it.

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more; it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Taken from Macbeth V.v.19-28 by William Shakespeare

Certainly many of us are familiar with the meaning from interpretation by our fellow linguists in the education field. But, the poem seems resounding in life. Not my life particularly, but in lives of those who have chooses to end their life. What a sad drama when people have nothing more that they can stay for, they chose to end their life.
I am putting forth this reflection of my upon a series of case of suicide that has taken place in recent month. Some may think they are stupid, or some may say they are brave. I am sure there are a series of plot behind the scenes which many not know. Is life really nothing but just struts and frets by a poor player upon the stage and tall tale told by an idiot with full of sound and fury and then is heard no more?

That leads to the core of today’s post. I personally don’t think so. At least… Then, what on earth are we here for then? That, I leave it to the audience to solve. Perhaps my recommendation on the book, Purpose driven life by Rick Warren, would be of great reference. In simple, for everything that happens and its there, know it. There’s a reason behind it. We may not be able to contain it now, but, take a pinch of faith; we will be able to comprehend it perhaps sometimes later in life. Familiar? Yes, I have heard it since I was young. I once asked my dad, how come suddenly I have a younger sister, when mom was at hospital after delivering my younger sister. And the answer I always get? You’ll know it when u grow up… Gladly I understand it now…  Till then… Thanks for reading~
