Another Turning Point

2009-07-05T20:47:00.003+08:00

My flight to sabah was today, just now. I bought the ticket last year, when everybody was busy buying during promotion.

Many people asked me why go cyberjaya to study, when I can study in local uni?

I really do miss Sabah, especially new friends and church friend I met there. I planed to stay in KF if I have a chance to do so. I prayed for a car, super nice car. I planed to not to go back next sem break, stay to work in Sabah. Then, go to Australia at the next sem break, if ever ever possible for me to do so. However, that was previous plan.

Well, life is full with choices. Sometime, we do not realise it.

It's like why you chose to wear red colour shirt today. You chose it and don't regret.

In my next post, hopefully I tell you what I had missed an element in making decision. This cause my decision made late.

a night..

2009-06-16T15:34:00.003+08:00

As I was replying SMS, while waiting the traffic light to turn green, I heard a loud bang.

I was a few cars behind the front line, second land from the right.

All cars were motionless, until a car from the opposite direction came to bang the traffic light near to me.

I didn't care too much, I continue my messaging, until a piece of glass flew toward me, and hit driver seat glass, left a sketch on it.

From the crashing sound, and the damages it made, I assume that it was driven fast, perhaps 80km/h.

Praise God that the car didn't come toward me, and the traffic light didn't fall down and hit me. hohohoho..

Praise the Lord !

Courage

2009-05-31T10:49:00.003+08:00

At one yumcha session, phui heng asked me "Wat makes you to be couraged to change your course, from mechanical eng to mass comm.?"

I said " It was a wave, a big one. It struck my mind."

I wonder did anyone there understand wat it mean.

It was a question (asked), actually.

One noon. My hubugan etnik group member asked me a question -Everybody has a goal/mission, what's yours?

I stunted for a while. I say I want to a producer. One day I will produce a film and more.

Then I asked myself, what am I doing here, studying engineering?

Since then, I say to everyone, including myself -when you know what you want, you do it.

An Unforgetable Journey - Tip of Borneo

2009-03-23T09:16:00.007+08:00

I thought I was tough enough. I thought that I'm fine. In fact, I'm not. After breaking up, there was a very sad feeling in my heart where I was trying to avoid to feel it. Soon I found out that I really need a time, my own personal time to get alone. I had been trying to avoid people, and not to talk to people so closely, or talking about emotional stuff. All I did was very formally -study, homeworks, n etc.

So, I thought of going to an beach hotel, to stay for one night or something similar. To the case of unexpectedness, the cost to stay at such hotel is more than RM1,000. I was "uhh...".

Rather than that, I went travel solo again. hahaa.

FYI, I went to Kudat. Do you know where is Kudat? emmm... It's the north part of Sabah.

Here the journey began.

I rented a Proton Saga 1.3, and drove all the way from Kota Kinabalu to Kudat (to be exact, my destination is Tanjung Simpang Mengayau).

The journey is about 3 hours. Along the journey, a lot of interesting thing I saw.

There were horses just at the roadside. So, can I ride, and take away?

There were dogs. I mean any where, many where, throughout my journey. I didn't take many photo while I'm driving. There were a lot of road signs like these "AWAS", "KAWASAN KEMALANGAN", "KURANGKAN LAJU", "SELEKOH MEMBERHAYA DI HADAPAN", and more. These sign boards really freaked me so much. The road was narrow, as a first-time-driving-a long-journey-in-Sabah, I had to be extra careful and alert. Btw, forget about it, it's secondary.

Now, let's go to the place where people like to take photograph.

I didn't like that place as much as the beach over there. Let me show you.
Can you see how clear the sea is?
I've told you, there're a lot of dogs.
Due to time and internet connection issue, I think I have to stop it here. Ask me to show you more on my laptop when I'm back, there's more.
(very hard to smile when I'm alone)

WARNING: The entire journey is extremely dangerous. Landslides are everywhere. Please don't do this with your own. You are advised to take a professional driver with you, by taking a taxi or a bus. In the 3 hours journey, anything can be happened to you. One silly mistake can take your life away.

Labuan

2009-02-21T15:21:00.003+08:00

I went to Labuan for CNY.

Taking 3 hours ferry from Jasselton Point, Sabah to Labuan jetty, nothing much I can do in a ferry but sleeping. Fortunately, I got to watch some pretty-watchable movie, shown in the ferry, while I'm on my way to Labuan -Ong Bak and Mr. Bean the holiday trip. Not bad uh? At least got something lah.

Very soon after my arrivval, my cousin came to picked me up and so I stayed with my aunt.

Staying few days in Labuan, with a tour by my cousin, I found Labuan is a very nice place. I think that there has a nicer sea view.

I (we) can buy duty-free products over there -chocholates, alcohols, and cigrattes. That what usually people go there for.

Cheap lah, I think, I'm no expert in this field.

Besides that, you can buy shoes, watches at there, if you want to. It's a little cheaper.
One way ferry to Labuan cost RM34, and so with the return fare. After all, it's not very bad idea to have a vacation, or a relieve.

What a "Fish"

2009-02-13T12:10:00.002+08:00

I think I could share this incident with everyone.

I went to Labuan, and bought some chocolates. There's a lot, so I pour some into a jar.

Then, I close it tightly, to prevent air to go in.

After that, I gave to a girl.

A day after that, she came to me. I thought she wanted to say thank you or something similar. Unexpectedly, she told me that the jar, she couldn't open it, it was too tight for her to open.

Hehee. It's nothing, but it just worth some laughs. XD

3.5, so what?

2009-02-01T18:51:00.003+08:00

Students are now tend to score CGPA 3.5 and above. They want to be success in academic.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not discouraging you to work hard in academic. Indeed, it’s helpful for anyone of us here, if we get good result, if ever possible, everyone should get 4.0 (maximum score).

It’s nothing wrong that if you trying your very best to score 4.0. I shall say it’s never easy to beat the perfect score, and you would say, “Beat the limit!” or “Impossible is nothing!”

Things go wrong when one is ONLY focusing on his/her study. We need to learn more, other than our study.

“How to be succeed in study”, and “How to be succeed in work” is different. Indeed, these two is totally not the same.

To enter a primary school, our mama had done for us. It’s as easy as ABC for us, we just need to carry a beg, then, walk in to class every weekday. Where else, to enter a work field, you have to go through an interview. Our mama can’t help us in this area. We have to take our resume and start asking for job. Even your girlfriend got to know somebody “BIG” in a company, you still need to go through interview.

If only, you passed the interview, and they hire you, congratulation! But that’s not the end of the story, but, it’s just the beginning of the beginning. To be success in a working field Is a no-easy task.

Working field is complicated. You know, adults? I’m still a young adult though. How to get things done, in the fastest way? How to get other people to do things for us? How to lead?

No man can live an island himself. We are definitely working in a group, no matter what you are working as. A worker has colleagues, and need to deal with his boss(es); A boss needs to deal with other boss, to get business done; A painter who does his work all alone, he still needs to sell his works, he must deal with customers.

OK, we look at beggars’ work. Some beggars work alone, they sit on the street alone. To get his money, he still need to get contact with the people. Even beggars need to get contact with people. So, he should ask himself, “How can I get money from people who pass me by, since now the economy is so no good?” May be he can wear more dirty and more-holes shirt. If he thinks that, this shows he is doing his work, and I can say they are indeed bosses also, they start their own “business”, instead of working for people. (No offence)

Everyone needs everyone.

People are selfish. Yes, you are right. Questions should be asked on how to deal with selfish people. We, the selfish type also, need to deal with selfish people. To get a win-win situation, is one of the no-easy task.

One last question, “How to beat the rest?” With our CGPA 3.5 result?

3.5 can only beat people during the interview process. It’s only when the employer browse through all the job application on his desk. All the resume with result, less than 3.5, he filtered it away. That’s only how you beat people.

“Working” and “performing” are also two different things. One can work, but not performing, means he is working the wrong way. One can be working and performing, that’s normal where many people are doing. You just need to perform a little bit more, then, you are a winner. Now, there is one more type, where one is not working, but performing. Ahhh, that’s a high level task, and what I want to learn. LOL. Then, I can spend more time with loves one. LOL LOL.

So, we have to consider carefully, what we are doing now. Focusing on the wrong things, might take you more time that you could imagine to bring you back to the right track.

Point to me if you think that I'm wrong.

May God bless everyone of us with wisdom. Amen.

What an experience

2009-01-29T15:58:00.000+08:00

photo taken from harnsheng.blogspot.com

I took part in Pesta Ang Pow, as a little Pengarah Teknikal. This event is one of the biggest event in UMS, which involved hundred over AJK, excluding performers.

However, I'm not gonna talk about the event. There were not many done by my part/unit. We did what most people dislike to do.

I actually learned a lot from this little event, with little work to it.

1. Leader must set a goal for his/her team.
2. Leader must motivate his/her team memeber, no body is going to work for them voluntarily.
3. Leader must control his/her emotions, even he/she facing great pressure.
4. Leader must have a balance lifestyle, to get physically fit.

Working togather is fun, especially with my fellow AJK. They are the best member i could ever get. Even we have very little man power, yet we have a great spirit.

Tasks with mountain high, done by 7 little strong AJK, is not an easy task. Everyone knows that.

We have 4 days roadshow before our Pesta Ang Pow, sometime we have 2 events (morning and night) on the same day. Roadshows were on to promote our Pesta Ang Pow. Then we have to set up the main hall. That week was so hectic for us.
rushing from one place to another, for the whole week. We were carrying PA system. Some roadshow we have to provide tables and chairs.

From day 1 til day 6, we have task on hand. I find it we have too little time to rest, when we need to get so many things to be done. Some night, we would have meeting, it ends about 1 or 2 am. then wake up early to attend 8am class.

With our limited man power, it's quite challenging for us to do everything.

However, we praise God, most things were done quite well.

The Meaning of Life

2009-01-23T19:04:00.000+08:00

After so many things.

I'd been going after girls.
I'd been going after materials fulfillment.
I'd been busying organizing events.
I'd been trying hard to make myself look good.
I'd been trying to gain as many friends as I could.
I'd been traveling to places.
I'd been into quarrels.

I still find there's emptiness in my heart. Although there were many people around me, even my friends, there is a longer need deep down in my heart.

This emptiness is not simply anyone can fill up.

Now I know, I have been leaving God, my Lord too far away. I've not trusting Him like I did last time.

This Is My God

Back To Sabah

2008-12-28T02:05:00.000+08:00

My footsteps became lighter, eyes opened wider, with a happy smiling face, going to my hostel.

Looking at less people, and almost nobody on my floor, naively me thought that I’m gonna own and kings the room. Last time, I always was being bullied in room.

As I opened the main door, nobody inside, I was happy. When I opened my room’s door, I felt there was something preventing me to open the door. Forcefully I open it, and I found the window was shut, realizing that it was the room’s air pressure.

One out of four mattresses is misallocated, thrown to somewhere. The bed was “vandalized”. My cupboard-table was shifted, and tilted. Clothing simply put unfolded on one’s bed, a bed without proper bed sheet covered. As usual, it was dusty. The abnormal was my cupboard filled with weird dust. It was like a lot of white spots painted all over the cupboard, not my cupboard, but others as well in my room.

O my, what had my roommate done, after I left my hostel. May be it’s not him, may be. I can’t understand how did I manage to stay there last semester.

I really don’t want to clean up the mess. I don’t want to stay there. It’s too horrible to me.

Now, I’m staying my first night in Sabah at my friend’s room. Thank God for Yap, my friend to provide me a shelter. It shall be a temporally place, just one night, then I have to find another place to stay next day.

What can I do? I could rent a room outside campus, it’s just the transportation problem that stopping me to do so.

Pray, pray, pray. God has never forsaken me, and I know it.

Our Kuala Lumpur

2008-12-28T01:05:00.000+08:00

16/12/2008, yesterday I drove my bro's car to him, then took bus back to Ipoh. In the mean time, before I went back to Ipoh, I went to some places.

Come, I share with you.

Low Yat Plaza: I went there, it's quite merry in over there, as there were lot of booth and lot of people. Holidays mahh. I went upstairs to check out some computer accessories, and guess wat? There were foreigners who look after the shop. Oh my? Not one or two, but mostly. Ahha. So, speak malay with them lo, no other way. I once reached to a shop a saw a quite-pretty-girl-lah, and she came over, I spoke to her. She looks like chinese, so I spoke chinese to her, she don't understand. Then I try english. She stil reply with funny language. I wanted to try malay, nvm la, I jz talked crap to her btw, as usual. I think she from china, taiwan, or other place... uh.

Petaling Street: Again I was shocked to see foreigners at stalls. They were taught by local boss about "petaling street price negotiation". They are still learning, I can see that, but dey r not bad weei, I tell you. They could ask you "Apa harga lu mau?" I went to other stall asking the price for a laptop beg. He say"$90", I say "$50 lah!", he say "Lima puluh? Tak boleh lah, 70 lah!" . . . so on and so forth. I felt kinda weird, and can say "uneasy" to see foreigners selling in PJS. not d same lo, talk BM in 茨敞街 haha, last time can speak kantonis, or mandorin ma. haha.

Healing

2008-12-21T00:26:00.000+08:00

Today I'm gonna write about healing. It's not something about absolute healed to 100% recovered, but it's something that good to praise God.

FYI, my grandma was admitted to hospital several days ago. For me such a bad grandson, only went to visit her today (12/14). hehe. I was shocked that I almost couldn't recognize her, as her face was fattened. She was sleeping when I reached there. After she woke up, she was crying in pain. "aiya, aiya, aiya ~"

So, I was emmm... console her lo. U know la, im not good at it. So I say "not pain de larh~" Soon or later, she cried louder than before. Then I tapped her like how my mom tapped me to sleep when I was small. That didn't work, she was still crying in pain. Oh my, I don't know what to do. I try again, say "guai lah~ (be a good girl)". Then she said, " it's not that I don't want to be a good girl, but its painful."

I looked around, I was still blur case. Then, I laid my hand on her, and pray. I just simply pray that God will take away all her pain, and I began to tap her. As I was asking for healing, in Jesus name, tapping my grandma, she started to slow down her crying. Wow, as I tapped slower, she cried slower too. That wasn't work before I pray, and it worked after I pray in Jesus name!

Wow, I mean really wow. God answered my prayer in immediate time. I would say wow again, it's amazing. Then she slept again like a baby in sweet sound.

Consciousness is growing without our conscious

2008-12-17T11:37:00.001+08:00

As we grow older, our consciousness became stronger. We also became more aware of what is happening around us. Our mind is sharper, our eyes are looking widely, ears listen more, we are growing up, and we are to become more individual than group growing (like in schools), and we are to take care our own self. Each person can make their own decision, nobody can question them why are they doing these, because it's their freedom.

As I move further, I saw a lot of grieves in my peers. They are struggling in their life, study, relationships, and more. Some of them did tell me, some I read from their blog, some I just know it. They were searching for accompanies, friends, or anybody that somebody would care for them, and could talk to them.

Did you know babies are sometime being left out by their families (including us)? We, when are we small, we had have not what we wanted. We wanted attentions, we wanted toys, we wanted care, or what ever, we did did-not get it, didn't we? For anything we didn't get, what would we do? Some of us will cry. Then, mama will come and console you. After that, we smile back, and started thinking that the day was brighter with mama.

Then, how come when we grow older, we don't get what we want, we don't cry? Why won't we get okay after getting consolation from other people?

We are thinking too much, as we are "old". Firstly, I personally think crying is good. Why we don't cry? People just don't want to express them self, because this is too much to reveal their weaknesses. They know how people around them look at them, they assume people will look down on them. The consciousness tells them.

Secondly, why don't people get back to normal life, like we are younger, after people console them when they are sad. Consciousness tell them, "things aren't as easy as you thought."

Children are easy-minded. Children just need to eat, sleep, and play. While we, young adults need to study and work hard to earn a living. Children can absolutely depend on parents, we cant. Is that what you say?

Our so called "wanted-list" in our life is getting more and more. We want money, fame, pride and so on. Desires in heart is growing with us. These desires are different compare to when we are young. Desires of kids are easy to be fulfilled, desires of adults are not. So how?

haha, I would say, drop out some of your unwanted desires lo, and start living a simple life and you will get more happy. Somebody please agree with me. haha. Yea, I do agree with saying goes "stupid people are tend to be more happy."

Conclusion. Wow conclusion? Yea, conclusion in MUET stlye -As I said, while we are growing in age, our consciousness grows with us. "The more knowledge, the more grief," says bible.

May God Bless You. Amen.

The Happy Times

2008-12-10T02:05:00.006+08:00

My school life (looking back to memories ... )

We had funs, as a friend.

Sometimes, I have a taught that "short hair" in school is nice, at least it's simple. =D

Change

2008-11-28T00:59:00.003+08:00

Changed, many things have changed. It will never be the same again. No matter how hard we do, it will never be the same as last time. They would be friends, environment, buildings, weather, and etc.

Things that never change is my house and my parents. Although my house aged, and my parents get older, the feeling in the house and the love from my parents is still the same. Although my house got nothing to eat, it's still my house, it has never changed. My parent's love is still there, although they hardly show it out, it's the same with when i was a child.

No matter how far we go, our parent's love will remain the same. No matter how long we go, our house is still the same.

Same as the love our our God. He loves us since the day He created us. Today, He still loves us like the first day. It has been more than thousands years. It was the same, it is the same, and it will be the same. The love of God will never change, and it never has changed. Many things will change (perhaps friends, promises, technologies, knowledge, flights) but one thing will remain till forever, that is the love of God.

Update 001 =)

2008-10-28T09:56:00.003+08:00

Life has been tough here. I hardly trim my mustache. Don't mention it. sigh.

How To Look At Your Life?

2008-09-29T23:20:00.006+08:00

Since everyone has gone back to their respective hometown, i traveled to KK solely.

I usually find my true-self when i travel alone. I would b like a bird in the air, flying to everywhere. I'm actually can move very fast, indeed sometime i have a taught that im not normal, and generally, my frens not walking as fast as me. No offence please.

Sometimes, when i travel (a new place), reach to a junction -turn right or turn left? I usually feel curious on the other choice after i take the 1st one. So what i do is I walk the 1st road, then I turn back, and walk the 2nd one. After that only can I sleep loudly at night.

My fren ask :"How you travel when you dunno the way?" "Wow, you very brave uh? duuno the way stil wanna go!"

Im kinda a kinesthetic learner, so I learn tru doing-it. I dont learn by reading books, i don learn from people showing it. I have to do it myself. hhehe.

Back to the topic =)
How to look at life?
Ans: Look from higher ground.

I went to Sabah Observatory Tower.

Of course, how high can we go, we cant go higher than our mighty God, we are limited, He is not. Hence, we shall seek his view. XD

The "fullest" moon we can see each year has just passed. I usually don't celebrate mooncake festival in Ipoh, but not this year.I didn't know that there was such stage performance happening in Sabah. Does ipoh holds such event every year? I don't know.

University Admission Update

2008-07-14T15:44:00.009+08:00

Days have never been easy. I have been through ups and downs.

It started when the application status for local uni admission came out. I was quite okay, to receive the news that i couldn't get a place in local uni. Yet, things change, feelings changed too, as many of my friend began to talk about their preparation to uni. Since then, I felt left out.

All I was saying was "OK", and I was really OK, with just a little bit of sorrow.

After everyone had went to register themselves at respective uni, I started my journey too.

I went to USM

I went to UM too.

I met some people in charge over there, and I submitted appeal letter to them.

The UM said that my result has not reached their requirement. Every engineering student's CGPA marks is in the range of 3.8 to 4.0, that's why I couldn't get into UM. hahaaa. He don't think that my appeal would be gonna work.

USM people are more friendly, they said they would help me. After a week later, I called them. They said that the 2nd intake name list has came out already, and explained alot of things to me. I think they have forgotten me. nvm. They also advised me not to try appeal these 4 university :

1. USM

2. UM

3. UKM

4. UPM

These 4 are RU (Research Unit). So, their focus is more on postgraduate, which they do lots of RESEARCH. They said, indeed, they are decreasing the number of undergraduates student this year, that's why my name is not on the list (2nd intake).

After hearing all these, my heart sank. My hope got no more. I was sad. As time passed by, my sadness turned into depressed slowly. And all these while, I was depressed, and stay in my room, do nothing.

......................

....

.........
.

One night, I went to cell group. One brother share this to me, Jeremiah 29:11:

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future."

since then, I know that, I have hope, I have future.

So, one thing I can say that, it's good to go cell group, even you are depressed, at least I force myself to go, amen. Praise the lord. Brothers and sisters could cheer you up in a special way (God's way).

Soon or later, I prayed everyday. I prayed that my appeal result would gonna b positive. I wait, wait an wait. Every one day was like a year long to me. I felt no good.

Until one night, Liewmin msg me said tat appeal result is coming out nex monday. Till then I felt relieved.

To cut the story short, I get to study mechanical engineering at UMS. amen, praise the Lord.

Ipo o ipoh

2008-06-30T22:15:00.000+08:00

(Just came back from Penang)

Now, Ipoh has become an empty city for me. Everyone left, and Ipoh is no longer the same.

If you wanna leave, pls dun say goodbye to me, I never say "goodbye."

My First Visit to Singapore

2008-06-24T21:43:00.013+08:00

Thank God, that I can use Google Earth to view every street of Singapore, I no longer need to buy a map.

Following a group of people with a tour guide, has never been my cup of tea. I would probably have no freedom to choose what to do, and where to go. In fact, I prefer to go to explore myself of one new place, even though I'm a stranger at there. I like to ask around people, "how to go 'here', how to go 'there' ". It's fun, and I get fulfillment when I finally get to the place where I want to go.

This trip was unique, and I found some specialty about Singapore.

1. Singapore is clean. There are cleaners everywhere, in hawkers center, in government buildings, in MRT, and they even sweep the leaves along the roadside.

2. The road name is placed above eye level, which is very good, so that everyone can have a good sense of direction, especially to foreigners.

3. I like the train. The trains are wide, and super long, compared to malaysia's one. It is well-maintain, clean, and efficient.

4. The MRT stations are also very well-designed, the structure as well as the interior. It is obviously show that it was designed by a good architect. Although a lot of people (I mean really a lot) are traveling, yet the moving flow has never stop. People are goin in and out very smoothly. It is well-organised and systematic.

5. I was also pleased to walk in Singapore, as there are pedestrian path along every road. It is very pedestrian-friendly. It is very safe to walk on road. Singaporeans can even cycled there (pedestrian path), no problem.

Well, I stayed in Bugis Backpakers Hostel, in Bugis. It's a little expensive compared to other hostel nearby, as it located very near to MRT station. We tried to find cheaper hostel, but we failed to do so, as that time was weekend, and everywhere was fully booked, it was kind saddening. It cost about $25/night/bed to stay in a dorm at that bugis hostel. But, my mom n i booked a double-bed room, which cost abt $78 for two.

Here are some pics to share with you people:

Hey, everyone !

2008-06-18T09:38:00.001+08:00

Yesterday, I had a hard time to wake up, the nightmare was bugging me. Today, although its not a day that i wished to have, it's still a beautiful morning ever. Yet, I wish today is just a dream.

Indeed, my local university application has been rejected. "Anda TIDAK BERJAYA dalam permohonan kemasukan ke IPTA Program Pengajian Lepasan STPM/Setaraf bagi Sesi Akedemik 2008/2009" is written on the page when i check the application status.

I wish that would be my welcoming message from other place, which I will be going, which has a higher level, a nicer place that i could imagine. God's plan has always outreached my plan, so, His will shall be done.

50 cent.

2008-06-05T19:37:00.000+08:00

We were not allowed to borrow money from our friend, when I was in primary school.

Yet, there was a friend of mine came to me, asked me to lend him 20 cent to buy fish ball. I said "Okay, I had enough for myself, here it goes."

The day after that, he came to me again, asked me to buy kacang puteh. He came to me almost everyday, mayb he gave himself one or two days break.

Some time, he did returned the money to me, just the amount of one day before. Most of the time he did not, perhaps I'm too soft.

Days went on, until my class teacher found out that I lend money to my classmate. Gosh, how on earth could she know?

To cut the story short, mother of my friend came to class, she talked to the teacher a while. Then, teacher ask me to come forward. The mother ask me, "How much did my son owe you, in total?"

All I was heard, "How much did he owe you yesterday?" Mayb I was too nervous on that time, and didn't expect his mother would come to pay me back. I said, "50 cent!"

10 Reasons Not to Stick to One Group ONLY

2008-05-29T21:39:00.000+08:00

There are some people who like to stick to one gang of people. They go study together, eat together, watch movie together, play together, etc. They don't join other people for activities, rather than themselves. They tend to stay in their comfort zone in every opportunity.

Why I write these? I scare they do something foolish when they are depressed.

These are why we don't stick to one group of people only:

1. This is good for your health and mentality. You begin to take part in activities when your social circulation grows big. In contrast, when you stay in your comfort zone, you grow slow, compare to other people, in term of your mentality. Your thinking would be child-like mind.

2. It helps in your learning journey when you mix with the different people. Eventually, you learn a lot, including how to enjoy life, what on earth is about. This application same to reading books. We read not only one book, we go for two and more, then, our knowledge expends.

3. You can expect the unexpected, you can expect more, because you see more! Your life is fun, your life is colorful.

4. You will get to experience different kind of culture. In fact, culture does not only differ in countries, but also differ in groups among society. Each group has their own practice. For example, one group of people tend to be late in every meeting they have, and punishment for it, is no necessary. I have came to a group of people, who express themselves with foul word, and they like it very much. It's their life, it's their culture.

5. Helps come when you are in trouble. Indeed, this does not guaranty 100% that your aids will come immediately. At least, you can try to sort things out easily, with the advices from your friends. Your sources will not be limited.

6. You learn to be flexible. You can react to any changes of your life quickly, including death, sickness, environment, and etc.

7. You get to know yourself better, you'll know what are you good at. You will be different, you will be more creative in the way you think, because you have learned from different kind of people.

8. You can develop new interests slowly, in unconsciousness. For example, i have learned how to shop like girls, until leg's muscle cramp, but one thing- i don't buy. I have also learned to watch anime once, influenced by some people, but I'm not a crazy fan and get addicted to it.

9. You see differently. You are able to see one thing from many angle, as you have heard so many of opinion. You can look at the bright side on every situation, you will become more optimistic and happy.

10. Life is short, spend it meaningfully. Touch people lives when you are able to do so.

A girl's dream comes true

2008-05-28T00:58:00.010+08:00

You can go and read first chapter on grandmotherstory88.spaces.live.com. It gives us a brief introduction of the lead role, how he carried his professionalism. You are sure can't to miss out this story.

If u wished to get a signature from the author? wahahaaa, let me see how u treat me. =D

Who is leading?

2008-05-23T13:57:00.006+08:00

It's interesting to stay close with our country issue, the debating between our country's leader- Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

There were headlines on the media, including "you're not my first choice", "give me some time, to prove it!", and so on. The media has updated us magnificently abt every word they said.

Few days ago, head line came out with "Dr M quits UMNO".

Sometime, it can be quite annoyed, when grown up ppl starts to "fight". But I was very impressed or stunt of how Dr M fought back the words tat were thrown to him, even many criticism were against him at once.

Those days ago, when he was in position of PM, he talked a lot, in UMNO, cabinet,ASEAN, Commonwealth, UN. However, he brought us to higher peak, where Malaysia to be recognized, what he said is constructive. On that time, most of his cabinet member were being nice to him. Today, everyone is seems against him, yet, he still talks a lot.

Why would he do so? He could just rest at home, and spend his remaining life in easy mode, in his old age.

Leader dont wait things to be happen, but make things happen. It is just him, whom i admire. When we see something wrong, how do we react? when we know something is goin to be bad, what do we do? We wait for someone to do something?

In fact, if we know it is wrong, we have to do something which is helpful. Do things at the right time!

Looking at the current issue, Dr M quit UMNO. I don know his actual motives of doing so. What I see, his move is to create an awareness, our country is going slow, leaving far behind other country. We need to do something! or else we wil remain the same, catch fish with bare hand, grow crops with kerbau, penduduk stil staying in "rumah papan", produce unproductive brains, ten years later. We will go no further, although we stil having our "wawasan 2020".

Take "RTM" route, will get you lost.

2008-05-19T00:34:00.000+08:00

Last week, i went to had a little climbing at kledang hill, with my former classmate. 5 of us started our journey in the morning, and decided to take 4-9 route, since many of us wanted to have some challenging activity.

Exciting moments started when we got lost. We followed the "RTM" signboard, rather than "4-9", and don't ask me why. We found the path were getting more difficult to go, as the branches were blocking the way, the dead leaves were laying on the ground. It was pretty advanturous, poisonous creatures might come and attack us at any time. One moment, Kinwai suggested that we better turn back before the journey goes crazy. So, we did it, to avoid taking any more risk. The further we went, the more clueless we were, we tried to figure out which route we went.

Until, everyone ran out of idea, we came to a stream, cleaning ourself, Kinwai prompted us to pray. "Jesus, please help us, amen", we pray in cantonese. Immediately I slipped, fell to the stream and got my leg wet, as I made my 1st step forward. I said, "What is this?". At once, we quickly went to dry land.

As we moved on, Tiankeat heard voices not far away. So, we shouted for help. Lo, we saw 2 hard core climber. To cut the story short, they brought us up to the hill. Later, they stopped a passed-by "telekom" land rover, and they managed to get us a free trip down the hill.

Only then, we could have our lunch safely, praise ye the Lord.

I'm Going 30

2008-05-11T15:51:00.000+08:00

Tomorrow, I have to go work early, 8am, as I have to rushed for a project. I'm in charge of it, and I can't let any mistake present, it's very important to my company. I'm going to oversee all the employee. Let's not talk any further about that, or else, i can't have a good sleep afterwards.

On the other hand, my daughter is going to graduate, as she has finished her kindergarten. I'm so proud of her, she is always well behave in class. Unlike her father, who always cry in class, in the end, quit after a few days of classes. Now, she is stil weak in her piano skills, i think I'm going push her for more practice during her holidays.

Recently, my wife has pregnant, i still wonder, am i that productive? wow. This will be my third baby. We are still in the planning, will we go for the fourth one. I cant imagine, she will be exhausted then. I don't worry, as tomorrow takes its own worry. I try to be beside her as long as I can. I don't feel excited about this coming baby more than Susana, she has been jumping all around and singing song for her coming sibling.

Shit, next week is my birthday, i better prepare a budget, before my family push an infinity celebration for me. Write more next day.

How Ironman inspired me.

The Beautiful Scenary of Polo Ground

2008-04-30T00:42:00.008+08:00

On 29th of April, i went polo ground to jog. Just before i wanted to warm up, i went through a minor disaster, I was facing life and death moment. The rain came, and I was like an after-tsunami victim. Guess what, i din get managed to jog at least 1 round, and I got myself wet, instead of sweating.

Later, as the rain continued, like dog and cat's shit, wind blew strongly, thunders and lightning came.

I felt sorry for my friends, munyi and yingkuan, whom jogged together, and suffered the disaster. It was actually me who insist to go jogging, even munyi had warned me that the day was like going to rain. Finally, d jogging plan was "not-so-successful". Here, I apologize.

You can watch the video recorded, but it's not any scarier than live shooting.

BTW, i had fun and it couldn't be denied, its one of my most happening experience i could have. Now, I have a different perspective towards polo ground. XD

For more detailed description, you can go to munyi's post.

Girlfriend (older/younger)

2008-04-27T22:52:00.002+08:00

Recently, my friend, Mr Akabonashi Nandao asked me, would i go after a girl who is older than me.

I said no.
He asked why.

Before i go further, i would like to start with his answer. He chose "yes", because older girls are more matured in thinking, more independent, so, he has less "worry". This enable him to focus on his career.

For me, i just can't accept a life partner who is bigger than me in ages. Firstly, she would physically looked stronger than i do, and I don't know where sud i put my "face" on, maybe i sud name it EGO. I don't know other men think, i do need some ego, to show that im not relying on anybody.

Secondly, im stil a childish-minded, and not-so-knowledgeable guy. So, with the little bit more of her experience in life than me, she knew what to do in most of the situation. Unlike younger kids, sometime, they would ask me a very simple question. If I could answer them, i feel proud deep down in my heart, especially when they smiled at me.

Incident on highway.

2008-04-22T01:59:00.003+08:00

2 months ago, as I was driving on highway, i saw a lorry caught on fire. Immediately i took up my phone and had some snapshot.

Later, i used other people's phone to dial 999. haha, less than 2 minutes, the "bomba" arrived.

Back to Ipoh.

2008-03-14T20:52:00.003+08:00

I went back to Ipoh for few days, last week. It was good, may be great.

I met my friends, a lot of friends, thanks goodness, they stil remember me. lol.

Frankly, form six life is very special to me, nonetheless my schoolmates. I met them on 11/03/2008., a lot of them, a lot a lot of them, may be that will be my last meeting with them, till i die. I just feel reluctant to say goodbye, and i did not say even.

I wish all of them goodluck, n success in their life.

Indeed, we have grown up. Life will NEVER be the same again. We go to seperate ways. It is always great, that we have been in same place once.

(I don know what im writing, hope u guys understand, no time to edit) haha...

Update 0603

2008-03-06T17:12:00.004+08:00

Hey people.

I'm workin now, in PJ. piuhh. It's an experience that beyond my expectation.

No matter what, still, praise the Lord, for what he has done unto me.

First and foremost, let me share something. The working environment is different, the working people is different, the task is different. I can assure you that i have not prepare myself enough to work in such a company. Furthermore, I'm one of the most young in my department, and i have no workin experience. Basically, I am more likely a noob over there.

The majority is malays, whom working there. So, I get to know their culture and their lifestyle. My colleagues are malays, the guard are, and so do the cafeteria seller. Instantly, I'm trying to catch up my malay language. Haha.

My job is simple, just edit the video given, and then upload it to the websites. cool? haha so so la. The working style is different from my previous job. While I was working in shopping complex few years ago, I have to start work punctually, lunch break/dinner break punctually too, just dun try to be late. Here, It has no such thing. We can do whatever we want. It's all about how you present yourself and your work. Communication skills is very crucial, we learn how to "impress" people, and get what we want.

2008-02-12T11:55:00.000+08:00

Wow, now, words are not enough to describe my feelings.

I just want to say that God is damn great. When we ask 4 one miracle, he will not hesitate to give us two, or even three.

Just believe it.

Just believe it.

Broke down.

Bad times

2008-01-20T16:40:00.000+08:00

We still have to smile, when people slap on your left cheek .

Did you sin today?

2008-01-12T20:40:00.000+08:00

Did you sin today?

Did you sin today? It could be anything - raping, cheating, breaking rules, or even thoughts of murdering and etc. Let say you have one, and that particular sin causes you end up in prison.

Ok, let's imagine, let say you are in prison now, what is your feeling now? You are in a dark room, surrounded by walls, and it's dirty and smelly.

Remember, you are in prison, just because of sin you did. And now, you have been judge and you are going to sentenced to death. What are your feeling now?

What do you feel? What do you want the most when you have only one day left?

There was a story, goes like this:
Long long time ago, a man was thrown into prison, because of he ate banned food. Later, he was judged guilty and his punishment was "gantung sampai mati". He felt hopeless and worthless. However, moments before he go face death, suddenly, he was approached by a guy, say :"You are free, go now".

Wow, what do you think the man in prison do? Choose to believe or not to believe and stay in the prison,say "you are crazy, i have done wrong, and i must face death"

What you say?
I say Jesus is the guy who tell us "you are free, go now", and he represent us to take up the punishment, in order to set us free.
He said, "yongkim, i'm going to take your punishment, you are free, go now"

Wow, will you believe that? Will you believe that He did the same to you? Will you?

Halo,

My mind is stuck now.

Few weeks ago, Sebastian came to ask me, whether i want to go to Bangladesh for a mission trip. Then, i thought for a while, and i say :"yes, why not?". I mean, AT THAT MOMENT, i thought that would be challenging, and it's a great chance to get some new experience, I was unclear about the trip, as Sebastian said he is going to tell Chee Keat, and i didn't ask further, because i don't know whether i have the chance to follow the trip.

It happened till just now, Chee Keat called me, said "I heard you WANT to go to the mission trip".
err,,, i was speechless a while on that time. Actually, i was asked to go, now somebody said that i want to go. I did not volunteer myself, but i was asked to go. Now, i seems that i volunteer myself and don't give any commitment.

Chee Keat might be right, as he said that, i was NOT committed to church, neither to service, any ministry, nor cell group. I have not been active in church. All this while, i was feeling down, i was less often join any church activities, but i never think of myself as "not committed". It's kinda hurt to hear him said that I'm not committed. But it is normal reaction, as I go cell meeting not regularly. But actually,,,, -----I wanted to go last week, i just really cant go away, as i was helping my dad, and i don't want to create any quarrel or fight of i just go off like that. Perhaps i don't know how to express myself n explain my situation to them. Again, last month i skipped a cell meeting, a Christmas pot bless gathering. Actually i had no time to think and buy food for the pot bless as i was cleaning my room, i was told at last minute. So, i ends up absent to the pot bless. I didn't told them my situation, I think they thought of me purposely don't want to go.

Perhaps, i don't know how to explain. Or I don't want to explain, lazy to explain, feel tired to explain. Seriously, i don't feel to explain. But, people would just judge me wrongly.

Back to the mission trip again, I never been to a mission trip, and i seriously don't know what should i prepare for it. And i think that Chee Keat is serious about this trip, neither I'm joking about this matter too.
One thing have to clarify, I really do not know what to do, and I'm actually waiting to be told what should i do.
I say yes, it's because of Matthew 17:20.

... "Because you have so little faith, I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:20

I just available myself, and God will prepare the path. I didn't ask what i can do, but i ask what can Holy Spirit do unto me.

I seriously need guidance, I pray, and please do pray for me.

Those were the days ...

2008-01-03T18:15:00.001+08:00

I'm sorry, i can't hide the truth any more, ...

Years ago, when i was in school, something bad had happened to me, ...

Yes, u asked me, she is very agreesive, ...
She was trying to take off my shirt.

If there are cases, any of you similar with me, please report to school administration immediately. =P
