Last day of the Month, First day of the week

Had my biological clock turned around last night trying to finish some calculations that just doesn't work that well when everyone else is having the alphabet "z" floating on them while i have numbers and math symbols on mine.

What a good way to end a month. Drag myself up after a brief few hours of shut-eyes and rode around the neighborhood to get my stuff printed before the 8 o'clock class. Attendance..presentation..more numbers... friends...and before i could notice, class was over. I reckon the answer for that question was to divide my single eyelids into another half.

What a good way to start a new week :) Rushed back to hostel with the full intention to skip the next lecture. The room was cooling, and i drown into a pool of vanilla ice cream with raspberry toppings and banana slices. Or was i dreaming already?

Don't worry i'm not gonna go on about what i dreamt along with all the vivid descriptions of what and who appeared. But at certain state there really wasn't a distinct line between the real world and dreams. I dreamt of real life people saying real life things that could really just link back to the real world and fit in it. hmm, strange.

Could dreams really tell the future? Or its really just our mine and imagination running as it wishes?

A blue box appeared on the bottom right corner of the desktop

Names are actually very important, people are prophesying over you every time they call you. *winks ;)


Ah, photoshop. I'm finally done with you. Sometimes designs comes with a passion; sometimes it's just obligation. But i'm glad even the latter isn't that bad because you still end up making something that never exist before, exist!

"i praise you because i am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, i know that very well.
Psalms 139:13-15"

And i'm thrilled to know that He made me not through obligation but heart-filled compassion!


i crave seafood spaghetti that has melted cheese in every inch of the dish with chunks of scallop and generous portion of fresh squid and big fat prawns!

i crave a nice warm cup of frappucino that blends so well you can't tell whether its chocolate or coffee.


i crave understanding from the people i honor most even though i may seem to be a disappointment. I'm sorry, and i shall write in soon when i get my words right.



Disappointment, i thought i've learnt to fully control you from letting you invade me, but smart are you to turn things around and use me to invade others.

you wait nia! i'll get you back one day!



cheers

领悟

曾经,很想很想去旅行。很想鼓起勇气,捡起那装满梦想的背包,那很向往看世界的相机,和那还没成熟的小心灵,硬着头皮到一个陌生的地方体会,体会不一样的生活方式,体会除了熟悉之外的习惯。

也许童话故事不是真的,但我想说,梦想成真是真实的。


走了好多路,看了好多从没见过的景色,

在特别薄的大气层下普照的太阳,在鞋里隐藏的海边沙粒,

脱了皮干燥的嘴唇,当地人可人的热情,



许多不同文化背景人的交流,英文腔的迷失与重获,

在陌生的城市里反复的迷路,街边卖艺的音乐家,

许多第一次遇见也可能再也见不到的朋友,脑里许许多多的领悟与想法,

肚子里战胜的异国美食,从早到晚停不了的相机先生,






(有时,见证了好,难免会对不好有所想法。但也许“入乡随俗”也有反过来用的时候。嘴边一至随口就提,人家听了也很烦。所得没错啊,这是这里,接受事实啦。Hm... 我只好小声地在心里说“哦”。)

但我坚持相信,诞生在这里不是意外,不是巧幸, 更不是不幸。移民不是回答这问题的答案。见证了好,就要实现它!

但不管怎样,我还是发自内心的快乐。

还是会大大声地想你说的,

旅行万岁!

Real Life Farmville



He said to his disciples, "the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few"

Fellow disciples of Christ, let's not miss out from the harvest, be the ones that would be available, that would stand in the gap for the lost, that will see with our spiritual eyes of our open doors. I believe in the word, that the harvest is plentiful! That there is so much fruit waiting for the willing laborers to harvest them! Let's not missed out on the timing and season, it is now!

"Be sure of this, I am with you always" Mathew 28:20

Thou shall not fear, for we have the universe's Greatest beings living and going to the harvest field with us, what more do we lack?

Let's farm babeh! :D

Embrace

There is an extreme agony, that has been passed down for generations. Research shows that the pain that the host feels is one of the most extreme pain that one can ever experience. However unlike any suffering in the world, this pain was a result of something beautiful, and it was because of pure love that makes that pain worth enduring.

And because those amazingly incredible people were willing to endure this tremendous pain called child labor, you and I are able to sit in front of your computer or phone reading this write-in.





Thank you for everything!


HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!


I love you mum

St. Kilda

Light shines brighter...


...in darker places




"You are the light of the world."
Mathew 5:14


Therefore, is it our destiny to dwell in bright places or to go forth and shine marvelously in the dark?

From

...Sydney..




...with love!




Am currently in Sydney, staying in one of its many backpackers' hostel. Its a privilege to have met a lot of individual backpackers here. Most of them are travelling alone and are going to more than a country. From what i've known, travellers usually take a whole year out (a gap year) and do things out of their normal routine for sometime before getting back to it.




In life, everyone has their own calling, to do certain things in our life. We have responsibilities to take care of, errands to run, task to fulfill. But despite going full speed on life, i do believe getting out of our status quo sometimes, be it backpacking, bible school, boot camp or just doing something different, would really bring forth good opportunities and time for us to look at our life, ourself and our environment, from outside of it. We get to be out of our routine doing things we're doing, and really reflect on what we've done, and what lies ahead. It is like getting off a cho-cho train track and review as a whole on what's going on.


For better or for good, it is better to think about it than otherwise. If we know we're doing something right, then continue to do it with passion. If we find that there's something wrong with the train track, or the train window, well its a good thing cause we actually realize that something needs fixing. If we find that the train stations needs a large scale renovation, by this i mean the society we live in, yea it is both our responsibility and privilege to make a good change out of the knowledge of knowing better.



I've yet to find the words to write, of the many thoughts that i've been pondering or the thoughts that just came out spontaneously throughout the days. For some reason i don't even know how to describe it yet. Somehow, i just think the word "learned" isn't appropriate, neither is the word "exposed".

But nonetheless, I am pretty sure that if it wasn't for this trip, i would just be indulging in college life and life itself going by a day at a time. So therefore. I am truly grateful to have times like this to not just travel and see places, but to think, reflect, be open to corrections, and to find reasons for striving higher excellence.



I hope we will not continue to live in our own bubble if we are. Well how do we find out whether a bubble we are living in? Hmm...probably its time to ponder :) Take care everyone!


Will be going back to Melbourne on Monday by a 12 hour bus ride and would be flying back to Kuala Lumpur on Sunday afternoon. See you :)

一个人的演唱会



Despite that the ticket is expensive
Although the seats aren't that great
Even if going alone to my first paid-for concert is sad

i choose to believe,

that everyone there would be so happy,
i'm not gonna get lost on the way there,
the stage is gonna be so awesome,
the full house stadium is gonna be overwhelming,
the music is gonna make everyone drunk,
John Mayer's not gonna talk too much,
He's gonna throw freebies at my direction,
I will meet great new friends,
am gonna have good photos for the night,
John's gonna do 5 encores,
or say He's a Christian,
and that i will have a safe journey home :)




Yeap, its gonna be worth going!

Not of the world, but for the world




"...worship was a massive mosh pit,
contemporary media interaction, videos, cinematic screens,
stage was impressive, noted.
seeker friendly, yea
wonder how their cell group system is,
cheque card for tiths and offerings, nice!
free CD's and visitors' lounge for visitors..."




Purpose, is the reason for which something is done or made.





Let's humble ourselves and cry out to the most High,



Lord send revival!
