Dua Jam Lehh.



By God's grace and favour, after 2 weeks of application I've already attended 3 interviews and rejected 3 interviews. I really thank God for these opportunities.



Boehringer Ingelheim

Today, I was interviewed for 2 hours in this company! Yes, two hours! Other than my interview with Dr Emily, I don't think anyone else will schedule such a long interview (oh how I miss that interview session with her).

I was first interviewed by the person who I was arranged to be interviewed by (he looks like Kenny Sia! I was so tempted to take out my phone to snap his picture but its quite inappropriate right? So I didn't la) for around 45 minutes and when I'm done, he asked me to wait for a while and he left that meeting room.

Then, he came back and I was asked to meet a higher ranking manager in his office before I proceed to be interviewed again by that higher ranking guy. As scary as it may sound, I thank God that this guy's very friendly and he taught me alot as he shared. He took slightly more than an hour with me before letting me go. I reckon this is a very good experience and I learned alot over here. I really really thank God for this opportunity.

Like said, I'm not waiting to be employed right now; I'm still studying. I just want the experience and of course all the better if they can wait till around March and I'll call it a blessing if they don't mind taking me in.

Its About Giving and Love; Its All About Jesus!



Christmas has always been my favourite celebration. Since young, I love christmas. You know, in shopping complexes they'll play songs according to festivals to create the shopping mood (marketing theory lol). I'm always annoyed by the loops of Chinese New Year songs or the Deepavali songs or the Hari Raya songs. I have high respects for the workers for having to bear with those songs whole day long.

But when it comes to Christmas songs, somehow I'll never be sick of them. They somehow bring peace, love and joy to my heart. In fact, I'll shop even more and I'll feel more generous and wanting to bless as many people as I can. I think that's because Christmas is all about love and giving. It's all about Him and Jesus is the reason for the season (take note: not santa).

It has been almost 2 years of blogging already and I thank God I grew with time. I'm sure by now if you've been following my blog journals for some time, you can tell that I'm a believer of Christ. I don't know how else to testify His goodness and faithfulness in my life other than sharing them here once a while. He has been so faithful everyday, and He was, is and will be with me throughout my walk everyday.

Reading from some of my entries, some of you might think that I'm quite a strong Christian and I must have borned in a Christian family right? Nope, I was not born in a Christian family. My family used to have an altar in my house and we visit the temple every Wesak and observe vegetarian on that day and on the first day of CNY. If that's not enough for you, I even held the joss-sticks before but I was never a believer in my so-called religion. I was just doing what I was supposed to do (asked or rather forced by mom) and its more of a routine?

And if you know me well, I'm someone very scientific and I need proof for everything. I need concrete reasons to whatever that has happened (like, why our body jerks backwards when a stationary car moves forward). So, even when it comes to religion, I demand proofs; I demand explanations.

I got the privilege to follow my cousins to Sunday School once a year --- that's during Cheng Beng (All Souls Day) when my parents need to go and visit the graves. Mun Wah and I were not allowed to follow, so we go to church. And of course, I won't remember what stories were told or what verses I've memorize in order to get those stickers but I remember there's something different in that place... an indescribable feeling. I somehow always look up to Christians and I always think that they're like some higher class citizen and I've been envying them without knowing. So weird right. I also always thought that its fated to be a buddhist and this cannot be changed since I'm borned into this buddhist family. How wrong!

I remember very vividly when I was in standard 6, out of curiousity during one of our annual visits to the temple, while holding the joss-sticks I prayed,

"Jesus, if you're real, just prove it to me by letting me get first place in the class. In Jesus' name, amen."

Mind you, I was holding a joss-stick that time in a buddhist temple praying to Jesus! I'm so weird la. And guess what, I got first place in the class.

That time, again I doubt. It could be my 'intelligence' you know, though I'm not that smart but who knows, luck? Haha! Then again and again I tested Jesus. I'll pray, "Jesus, the other time could be luck la. If you're really real, show me again by yada yada yada" and God never fail to answer all my prayers --- ALL my prayers!

In the end of form 3, I finally gave my life to Christ and accepted Him as my personal Christ and Saviour. No one did any follow up on me but I know that He's truly the one and living God who conquered the grave and reigns forevermore.

Since baby, I'll always had this same nightmare. It was horrible and I'll wake up screaming with cold sweats and increased pulse rate. And for that, my parents and grandparents actually brought me to the medium and you know, did all those rituals and made me drink those burnt charm stirred with water. They never worked. I still get those nightmares and all. Other than that, my body has always been weak and I've this funny pain on the dorsal (the upper part, not the sole) of both my feet almost everyday!

There was once during a holy communion in church, we were given just ribena and 1cm3 of bread and I remember pastor sharing these: "If any of you needs healing today, just ask and believe that He'll heal you when partaking these breads and cups. Just believe and receive it." Again, silently I said a really simple prayer and only now that I realise, I NEVER HAD THAT NIGHTMARE ANYMORE SINCE THAT PRAYER! And even the pain, it's gone! How awesome eh? All glory to God! Actually there are alot more miracles that He has done in my life and I could not be what I am today if not for Him, seriously!

And today, we don't celebrate Christmas just because of the marketing gimics the malls are portraying or because its an event and its cool for everyone to hang out at StarHill or something like that but it's because of Jesus. He was given to us in a form of present out of love by God and that's the reason why people give presents on Christmas. Its all about giving and love.

MERRY CHRISTMAS PEOPLE!

We're All Recession-Proof!



"As beloved of God, we're all recession-proof"


I like how Pastor Kenneth and Pastor Prince aptly put these; very true indeed!

Just two nights back, I was gatal la, so I went and filled up my details into Jobstreet.com just for fun. I don't even have a resume; all I did was just filling up whatever columns they have there like my personal details, education background, co-curriculum and whatnot. And guess what, the very following morning itself (which was yesterday) companies started calling me up regarding my application.

I told them very frankly that I could not start working yet as I'm still studying. Today another company called me up to arrange an interview with them this coming Monday. I'm not expecting to get the job but I'm quite thrilled bout the interview for the experience sake. So fun la!

As you all know, its a real bad timing to graduate now. Though Asian countries are not very much affected by this, but I bet most companies would try not to take in too many workers. In fact, if they could they'd try to lessen the amount of employees.

But our God is the Jehovah Jireh! He's our source of provision, our provider! Imagine, my expected salary stated in my online resume isn't very low but yet employers are still considering it. So readers, let not be discouraged by the surrounding but be encouraged that He's with us at all times and He's our source of provision! Amen? =)

EDIT: 2 interviews on Monday. Another pharmaceutical company just called up. Gonna be a great time. All glory to Jesus!

Superhero!



We were at the hospital today to pick Mun Wah up besides inquiring bout vacancies' protocols and what not.

Guess who we met there when I was rounding to look for a parking space?







You're right, none other than our Cicak Man!

Omgosh, you know my car stopped at one of the junctions when Mun Sheung pointed out and asked, "what's that?"

And when we turned to look, we saw this red creature next to a tree and he scared us. Mun Wah and I were practically shocked and dumbfounded looking at him. Then he waved at us while smiling.

What a friendly superhero.

Happenings..



8th - 11th December 2008

Photobucket

Raub -- The TransformUs camp.

God's presence was so strong and evident in every session. 150-160 young people were so hungry and thirsty for His touch and He touched them in His very own way in every session.

Photobucket
part of the worship team

The praise and worship sessions were superbly awesome; the sessions by Pastor Gaious Lawrence, Pastor Steffen and and Pastor Benjamin were awesome;

Photobucket

Photobucket

the games (obstacles course, canoe-ing, high ropes and flying foxes, handicaps game and telematches) were also awesome.

Photobucket
Orange!

So much for being a 'camp doctor' so to speak, many unavoidable injuries took place too. Not to mention muscle-aches in everyone's not-so-fit body. Good experience I would say.

Photobucket

23 young people gave their life to Christ just an hour before we left that place. We learned how to discern and listen to the Holy Spirit and now most of us can listen! It is really awesome I tell you to be living in His guidance!

12th December 2008

We had a combined cell Post Camp Celebration at Babe's house ala potbless. We all had our shares of the 3Fs --- Food, Fellowship, Fun!

Photobucket
Babe feels that Mun Wah was checking her out here.

Photobucket

Many shared their experiences and what they gained from this camp. Basically almost everyone shared including those who hardly open their mouth. I'm really blessed and encouraged by what everyone shared especially Alex's. God has definitely been so real to everyone in the camp!

I like how xuewen aptly put these; a pat on your back, Harvest Youth!

13th December 2008

Monash Open Day --- I volunteered to be the student helper there. The expected crowd was around 2000 people.

It has been great just being able to talk to people or bringing them around Monash. It feels so good to bless them with what you have and what you're capable of and I received alot of comments from those people outside that Monash people are all so friendly.

Photobucket
Student helper team for Campus Tour

Thank you so much people for being a bunch of helpful and great team. This ever-ready-to-serve attitude definitely eases the role as a team leader. Thank you so much for making it a fun day!

Time really flies. It was 10 years ago when I was in Pn Peh's standard 6 class and now, even her youngest daughter has finished her standard 6. Amazingly, the teachers still look the same.

About 60 people turned up and it was a great time catching up with friends and teachers. Thanks for coming and making it a successful one.

p/s: And thanks so much, Jeff for crashing my party.

To the girl in the middle,




Photobucket

So much of packing and tidying room at 3am and washing my car at 12 noon all for you, I'm sure by now you can feel the love from the girl on your left and on your right. Although the time spent was just a short one, I think the amount of laughter I had sums up my whole month's laughter --- yes, that much.

Oh yeah, thanks so much too for those unwanted touches (eeww), you geek! Haha!

Be strong and you know we love you. Looking forward in meeting you once again. Hugs.

From the girl on your right, no, I mean left. Oh no, i don't know. I'm confused.

p/s: Will be away for youth camp from tomorrow on (8th - 11th Dec). Might blog bout it when I'm back. Stay tuned!

The Seed of Faith.



Next Monday's Hari Raya Haji.

I think many doesn't (or even bother to) know the significance of this celebration. As long as its a holiday right?

The Muslims celebrate this to be reminded of Abraham's act in sacrificing Isaac as an act of obedience (Gen 22).

Abraham believes that our God is a God who provides (Jehovah Jireh). Abraham believes that all he need to do is to obey. He knows that God can give and he could also take away if He wants to (Job 1:21b) but He doesn't. Abraham also knows that God has plans in our lives, plans to prosper us and not to harm us, plans to give us hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). So God definitely will not harm him by taking away his son.

The only difference here is that in the Muslim's context, the boy being sacrificed was not Isaac but Ishmael (more known as Ismail by the Malays). This is because they believe that Ishmael was Abraham's oldest son and hence the birth of the Muslim line. Interestingly, Nabi Muhammad was one of Ishmael's descendents, from the very line of the Muslim faith. Now, that explains aight?

Interesting uh?

Another name for Hari Raya Haji is Hari Raya Korban -- Sacrifice. So on this day, the Muslims will sacrifice a lembu (and not kambing, Amy! One mehhs and another mooos, they differ okay!). They believe that God's the provider and usually the meat of the slaughtered cow will be distributed to everyone in the village.

Ask me how I know all these. Maybe I was once there in the history? Haha jk.

Based On Observation..



I just came back from badminton.

Looking at my wet attire, I came to conclude that our dorsal (back) sweats more than our ventral body. I mean, comparing the whole length from shoulder to the sole of my leg between my dorsal and my ventral.

I supposed this happens to everyone as well eh? Have anyone wondered why? Maybe that explains the lesser fats portion on our dorsal body because they're all used up!

And the ventral part of body sweat lesser, no wonder la the presence of tummies and what not.

p/s: good news to those who doesn't wanna have big bumps at the dorsal side, they sweat more profusely! =)


Edit: Not sweat, but perspire. I got reminded when correcting Jo in mamak just now. Only animals sweat, and I'm not an animal =)

I Wonder Why!



Things that I should do, I didn't do. Things that I shouldn't do, I do.

Someone please tell me why is it always like that? Pfft.

Soul-ed Out, Mont Kiara.



Similar to Chili's, I think Soul-ed Out is an awesome place to hang out. It's located at Desa Sri Hartamas, somewhere near Jin Seon's place

Somehow, I like it here. The cozy ambience with light lightings, and with simple but creative (dragonflies) deco.

Photobucket


I like food here too. Jo and I both ordered Cordon Blurr. Huge sausage in the center wrapped with layers of chicken ham and oozing cheese, before it was dipped into the batter for a quick deep frying resulting in a crispy golden surface. This is served with (lovely) fries, salad and mushroom sauce.



Cordon Blurr


Next, you wouldn't want to miss the mashed potato here. It's awesome I tell you. It's not just like the normal mashed potato that we can find in western restaurants or KFC. These mashed potatoes were mashed together with cheese leaving the potato with more viscous texture and mouthfeel, while giving the cheezie ummph! Just one word: awesome!


Mashed Potato


Another maincourse would be Jin Seon and Jaclyn's Bolognaise Twist. The puree was not too sour, the minced meat goes really well with other ingredients to taste and the most important part would be the cheese, in fact, alot of them! I tried only some (one mouth) and the mouthfeel and taste itself already left me to know that I will not be able to finish this plate of pasta. It's so feeling and too huge a portion.



Bolognaise Twist

"You sure cannot finish one lar" was what I told Jin Seon and boy, how wrong was I. She was the first person amongst us to finish up her food and she could still eat, I mean she wasn't entirely full yet.

Photobucket

The portion was so huge la that I think Mun Wah and I will share this plate if we were to order it. Jo was right, do not be deceived by Jin's slim feature, she can eat.



Jin Seon



Jo and Jac, the newly wed.

I think other than the ambience and food taste, companion plays a huge role too! Thanks guys!

Yoga Ban.



“In Islam, a believer must not do things that can erode one’s aqidah or faith. Doing yoga, even just the physical movements, is a step towards erosion of one’s faith in the religion, hence Muslims should avoid it,” he said.

Source: TheStar


I believe if one is strong in their faith with deep rooted foundation, their faith cannot be shaken that easily.

If merely practising yoga or attending ONE session of church event can shake their faith, then where the credit goes after so many years of attending Sekolah Agama (religious school) since young, praying 5 times a day and practising other religious activity.

I supposed something is missing somewhere?

I'm not saying all these to critisize one's faith but its just something that hit me. Maybe something worth pondering?

Kids These Days..



Latest discovery:

I wanted to transfer credit from Dad and when I was in Dad's inbox, I found out that Dad never cleared his old messages in his phone before. The oldest message in his phone was since 2003.

ITS TWO THOUSAND THREE, PEOPLE! Amazing uh? Nah.. it's just five years ago.

Today is the second day of Harvest Kids' Camp. The kids never failed to amaze me.


Ian's slipper (after lunch)

Ian: Teacher, I cannot find my slipper

(follows him to the slipper place)

me: find nicely and see

Ian: My slipper is something like this *slipped his foot in one of the slippers* but this is not mine

me: Then try to find another? Should be yours edi la, 'cause only got one

Ian: But mine when I wear is cold cold one, this one hot hot one!

me: !@#$%^&*#%

Watermelon

Zac: *gestures at the watermelon* Is this apple?

me: No, its watermelon

Zac: then I don't want.

me: you only eat apple?

Zac: Yeah... ohh I got take orange too.

me: you only take apple and orange?

Zac: *smile* yeah.

(after a moment, he came running to me again)

Zac: Is this watermelon?

me: yeah, you want?

Zac: I think I can try.

(after taking a bite, he ran back to me)

Zac: teacher, I think I can take this too

me: oh good, you want somemore?

Zac: Don't want. 'Cause I already took one piece.


Kids these days..


It's so tiring to take care of these 60 kids. My legs already died on me today. Believe it or not, as nocturnal as I am, I fell asleep before 10pm last night and slept throughout til this morning. This is really rare on me.

Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Hope I can wake up! Heh, so good night!

Wait, before I end,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO TEO LI AN-NE!!


Welcome to the "Number-2-world"! Heh!

Bring Forth The Healing!



I was reading Sera's blog just the other day and something led me to share these with her. If any of you who have been following her blog post, you'll know that she's a chronic gastric patient and she yearned for His healing so that she will suffer no more.

Other than Sera, I know some of you too, could be suffering from some pain, be it physically or emotionally and whatnot. I've already asked her for permission if I could repost whatever I commented in her blog here and I think it'll serve a great reminder for all of us (at least it was for one of my friends who read it).

Here it goes:

Sera, its said in Isaiah 53: 4-5 that by His stripes, you are healed!

It didn't say that you are going to be healed but it says you are (already) healed. I believe every stroke that Jesus received on the cross is a sign of complete healing even for your gastric pain. The whole thing is already complete (that's why Jesus said 'It is done!')

So now, just speak to your gastric pain that "By Jesus' stripes, I am healed'. Start thanking Him for your healing. All you need to do now is to believe and receive the healing. Human's nature is to whine and said its impossible, but to God, it is already done. It is up to us if we want to proclaim the healing or not.

Last year, my mom got diagnosed with a tumour in her soft bones, on her face, eating up most of her flesh already and its gonna damage her brain anytime soon if it grows any bigger. Mun Wah and I laid our hands on her, thanked Jesus for the miraculous healing (even before the biopsy test) and we believe that mom is already healed. True enough, during the biopsy test, the surgeon accidentally took out the entire thing without causing any damage to mom's face etc and she's totally healed.

And just two months ago, one of my church uncle got diagnosed with brain cancer. The youth thanked God for the healing and proclaimed His healing. Today, he's totally healed from that brain cancer. Amazing isn't it?

Now, do you think our Daddy who loves us so much, would He not hear your cry for your gastric and your sufferings? If He could, He'd say, "Sera, my Son has already bore all these for you. Just proclaim and believe, my daughter and you're already healed. Don't let the devil put thoughts in your mind. You do not need to do good to get all these, because my Son has already redeemed you. And that's what we call grace."

I bet you've heard all these so many times already but I guess it serves a great reminder that He's still faithful and He's the Healer. Let our faith be reaffirmed in His name.

Now let me pray for you:

"Father in heaven, I just wanna thank You for the miraculous healing on this reader's body right now. I thank You, Jesus for Your complete work on the cross. I know, by Your stripes, this person is already healed. I want to thank You once again and proclaim all these in Jesus' name, amen"

Friend: How?

Friend: pray for me, will ya?

mk: of course I will

Friend: thank you so much

Friend: muaks

mk: Lord Jesus, I thank You for Your favour upon Minghui's life. I pray that You'll continue to grant her peace, wisdom and understanding as she prepares for her paper tomorrow and please cause her brain to absorb like sponge too. Quicken her understanding and help her to remember, give her a nudge and remind her tomorrow if she couldn't remember, Lord. I thank You and proclaim good results even right now and that her examiner will find favour in her answer scripts. I thank You for Your faithfulness in her life, and I thank You for being with her. Guide her, lead her, keep her healthy. In Jesus' name, amen.

Friend: Amen!

mk: =) Don't play play lehh my prayer very powerful one ah. God heard it already. Hahaha

Friend: Dear Earthly Father please bless this wonderful lady who prayed for me. May you equally bless her as well as bless me. In the name of Jesus, amen!

mk: earthly father? praying to your dad?

mk: in sentul?

Friend: sorry

Friend: Dear Lord,

Friend: haha

mk: hahahahhahahahha

mk: its okay la.. He understands =)

Why Would This Happen?



From a sentence to an argument to covering by dad. End result -- an emotional breakdown. In fact, a real serious one which involves respiration blockage.

Other than trying to apply my medical rescue, we prayed as a whole. It was the first time we prayed as a family. We each prayed not once, but twice, that includes Mun Sheung.

I personally believe that God will bring this family to a higher level after this incident. Faith.

Rain or Shine.



I was having my evening nap when I got the text message from Jo Kien.

"Is that you in page 34 of TheStar today?"

(taken from thumbnails of TheStar)

What do you reckon?

Friend, I care because I love.



Amendments in Food Science course structure.

I know this released news brought in a lot of discontentment in you. I believe it affects all 2o+ of you for now but I believe its not necessarily a bad thing altogether. Things will go 'badder' if you think its bad and 'gooder' if you think they are, how funny; and you chose the former.

And you said I'm not helping but demoralizing? I mean, c'mon la, I'm not taking side anywhere here and you can just go research for yourself if whatever I said is true. These are what other universities are doing as well la. I'm not trying to add salts to your freshly cut wound, what more when there isn't even actually an obvious wound?

If you think the changes is unfair, and you're totally against this idea, do you think I'm not for you if I don't flock with your idea? Do you think its better to have a shutting ear and just go all out with your 'idea' in mind that you deem correct?

You may think that I'm an outsider and won't know (or bother to know) how you all feel and think and the opposition is definitely wrong. What makes you think that I didn't try being in your shoes?

But if you insist, then I'll just wish you well. I'm not trying to rub in anything or neutralizing the complications, I'm here just for you. Because it's you, my friend.

One day, just one day you'll find out and you'll realize it and thank me for what I've said today. Then you'll go "Ahh, if only I was not that terburu-buru the other time, then I won't be at the losing side at all. Everyone wants the best for me and I'm thankful." That one day.

Friend, I care because I love. And I know what I'm talking about, so listen.

Just A Drink =)



I just finished my Environmental Health paper (afternoon paper) and I have Medical Micro paper 2 tomorrow morning. Yes, its again another back-to-back paper with less than 24 hours intervals. Looks like time is a factor, which is true.

But somehow, I don't see the point that we should pathetically squeeze every information into our poor brain every seconds. We cannot afford to waste any seconds, one may say. That's when the word (or rather the action) study smart comes in.

I think at this point of time, besides turbo-ing in our studies, it'll be great if we can take a little time off blessing someone. Just buy someone a drink maybe? Offer someone your notes and help them to understand parts that they don't understand maybe? Picking up the guitar and just spend some time enjoying His presence maybe? Oh, I washed my car thoroughly last night hehe.

Just last night, I was quite stressed when my drummer suddenly said he couldn't play for me this Saturday, and this happened after choosing my songs and sending them out. Right then, I picked up my guitar and just spent some time worshipping Him and His peace fell right into my heart there and then. There I know, its not about the music but our attitude in worship. I believe I can still lead the whole congregation into a great time of worship without the drums, as long as we're worshipping Him. It's all about Jesus, and He's the only audience. And when I start studying, things get absorbed into the brain really fast. Trust me, when you put God first in everything, everything else will fall into place just as He will (Matthew 6:33).

And just now, though it may be just a short meet up with Yiwei, I'm already blessed.

So friends, start buying a drink for someone today. That little money that you spend gets to sow seeds into someone's life, what a bargain weyy! And it feels really really good you know! I've tried many many times and it still feels so good.

Okay, gotta turbo now. I believe His favour is upon me now. Study smart, mk!

P/s: I can't wait for tomorrow's lined up plans =D

He Is The Same God.



Sometimes it takes a lot of us to believe that Jesus died on the cross for us. It's easier to say that He died because He has to, or just believe it as one of the histories recorded in the bible for us. But the truth is, He died for you and I. Period.

He didn't do that so that people would think that He's so good, but He is good. He did that out of love for us all, so that we all can be co-heir with Him, so that we can enjoy all the privileges to be His sons and daughters, and so that we can have eternal life.

You know, sometimes it got me thinking if I deserve all these favour.

For example, 2 weeks ago, I proclaimed and declared that God will cause my brain to absorb like sponge. True enough, it happened! Like, I finished 30 lecture notes of Food Science in ONE day. Isn't that amazing?

I was supposed to go through these notes again for memory purposes, since Dr Siow said it's gonna be really really really tough and she thinks that I may not be able to make through? I felt really really discouraged walking out from her office. What add on was that I was terribly sick yesterday and I had Medical Micro paper that day. At night when I was better, I only managed to finish 5 lectures out of 30 lectures.

The next day, into the exam hall I walked with a smile knowing that He's with me and His favour is with me. It was awesome how God placed that peace in me. I prayed for 2 familiar essay questions and must be from the 5 lectures that I have, and I silently expect for just a pass with these amount of revision I have.

I ended up had ALL the questions (minus one short answer question) answered with my sponge-brain-memory in less than 2 hours (exam time given was 3 hours). Without Him, I couldn't have done that. He never fails to amaze me.

Now, the same God who loves me so much and calls me His beloved is the same God who is walking with you right now and if He could (without scaring you), He wants to tell you in audible voice that He loves you =)

Nothing is impossible for Him, really.

Anyone Has A Tampon?



I seriously think I need to stuck 'em into both my nostrils tomorrow.

Otherwise, I would have to bring the entire box of tissue paper into the exam hall, blowing my nose at every other time while the rest in the MPH would shooosh me wanting a pin-drop silence there. It's leaky, or rather worse than that, running like hose!

I remember telling xuewen, if I had to fall sick and I can choose what kind of 'sickness' I can have, I think I'll choose cough. It's irritating, no doubt, but at least not as suffering as others? Agree? What's your pick?

Maybe I should take back my words and choose to be healthy. But did I say If I Have To Choose? Means I have to choose la..

Anyway, tomorrow on will be the start of my exam agony. More precisely, in 7 hours' time. Who would have to sit for 4 papers in a week, I mean at university level (secondary school lain story k)? Hrm!

Dilemma: Take medicine and sleep now, or take coffee to stay up to study? I think the latter la..

Keep me in prayer, folks! You'll be heavily exceedingly abundantly rewarded if you do. Teehee! *shows teeth*

Blessings 2X!



I used to quite like the song Unwell by Matchbox 20 and I totally forgotten bout it until Jo Kien's previous comment.

Then just that day when I was replying Hui Jin's text, it went like this:

Jin: U crazy dee.. it's not mine and nothing great of seeing him la. k then I see u tmr, wanna memorize.. haha..

mk: I'm not crazy but just a lil' unwell. haha. kla text me after your exam. will be there. ALL THE BEST DUDE! =) night

And you know what, the next day she thought I was really unwell and she almost brought those soluble Vitamins for me. I know it was my bad (miscommunication) but suddenly that lyric line just came to me lar, what to do? And not like I'm really unwell-unwell but its still so sweet of her right? Blessings.

And today, after 1 1/2 years of owning my current phone, I finally found the silent mode to my phone. I mean, I can't find the silent mode thingy and I do not know how to put it to silent mode before this!

But now I can =) Many thanks to Amelia, the hero-in!

I'm worried for not being worry for my exams.



Despite having to study alone today in the library, it was not that bad after all, eventhough my progress was a little too slow.

Hui Jin's sweet enough to check on me with her occasional text messages.

And as usual crazy fellowship time with Dr E's always awesome and time really flies when we're enjoying ourselves. Thanks for spending your precious time despite the amount of work you have, and the iced mocha! I'm truly truly thankful for you, thank you! Haha, I just felt the need to journal these down as I journey on.

You know what, I'm worried for not being worry for my exams. Dr E thinks I'm crazy. Well, maybe she's right =)

Go-no-hiii



If you notice my blogging time, its now 4.17am and I'm still awake, thanks to the latte just now =)

I'm revising Sexual Transmitted Infections for the second time now, looking at those disgusting pictures of infected penises and vagina(s) and anal(s), somehow Dr Stacey's go-no-hi (Gonorrhea) kept ringing in my mind.

Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii
Go-no-hiiiii

Yeah, like that. I think I'm panaroid now =/

Okayla, I think you won't get it unless you're from my class.

*back to revision*

Jo Kien Calls It A Retarded Dream.



He mocked my dream =(

As retarded as it is, today I dreamt that I collapsed (for a while) due to acute myocardial infarction. Then I got up again.

What does that supposed to mean? Any interpretation?

*edit*
P/s: And (Heng Hui) Jin thinks that I think too much. Well..

Sunday.



Yesterday, I had a weird dream.

I dreamt that I was re-parking my car 'cause my car was parked very far away from the place I was at. And then, I found a parking space, side-parking-kind of parking space along a road lar, very near Dr Emily's car. And her kerbau was there. Then when I reversed to park my car, my car accidentally went forward a little (jerking kind, like mati-enjin that kind). That kerbau, who has been watching me, thought I did that to challenge him or something. He, that kerbau, then came attacking me by jumping onto my car's windscreen (their typical way of attacking lar) and then bounced back. My windscreen shattered and the pieces of glasses all stucked on my left arm. Then I came out of the car, called Dr Emily and complained bout her kerbau's misbehaviour and sulking over my injured arm.

Then, Mun Wah woke me up.

Since I didn't get a reply from her in the dream, I text-ed her and to her reply, "Haha.. you must be too stressed with your exams. Not too worry, I don't have a bull but a small puppy :)" -.-


Now that when I relate the entire story, it doesn't make sense eh. Actually, since when dreams make sense uh?

Tomorrow's Deepavali!! Hoorayyy! I love Indian Food!

Talking bout food, I realise Malaysians only eat one meal a day. That is all day long.

Photobucket
Taman Eng Ann Food Court. These hawker stalls were under a tree last time before it became a food court.

This picture was taken at 4.50pm today and look, the food court's still packed with people.

Photobucket

I literally waited for at least 20 minutes just to pack a bowl of assam laksa from this stall and orders kept coming in.

Photobucket

And this huge bowl of assam laksa costs only RM 3.50 and its good! My whole family shared this bowl of assam laksa and I'm so full now!

If any of you were to come to Klang, I really do not know where I can bring you other than places with good food =)


Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin.



Dear Nick,

I hate to say this but family gathering was never so much the same without you. We miss memalukan stories from you, but most of all the laughters lar. We still do laugh no doubt, but yeah, I bet you know where I'm getting at larr.


Photobucket

So, as usual karaoke session at your place after dinner. Your mom actually calls it the Orange Box and she asked if we want to go Orange Box after dinner. She's so funny larr...

Wah
actually took awhile to get it, she thought your mom painted that room orange -.-


Photobucket

As usual the guys acted macho and didn't want to sing except for Josh, he was forced to sing (yes again!). Haha! He requested for Circle of Life (The Lion King) this time instead of 100 years. Not bad, I think he got a distinction for it, if not mistaken.


Photobucket


The cousins got a bit more hyped singing songs (with actions) like YMCA and Livin' La Vida Loca.

Kumah enjoyed watching us sing while enjoying her spiced-kuaci (snacks provided by your mom, really like Green Box lar!), she even laughed at us or amazed at good songs.


Photobucket


As you can see from the pictures, for a change, the adults came in and joined us later that night! Your mom was with us in the room throughout the entire night.. awesome right?


Photobucket


And oh! Wah duet-ed with mom this song, Yue Liang Dai Biao Wo De Xin and guess what..


Photobucket


Haha you see it right, ZERO! LOL. I think they started at the wrong key or something larr.

Anyway, we just wanna say you're missed by us all! And this song is dedicated to you, truly, yue liang dai biao wo (men) de xin!

P/s: go ask someone if you don't know what it means =)
