Sneezes.

Blogging from the office now.

This is a very cold morning. Despite driving with the aircond switched off almost all the way, I still sneeze!

Now the question is, why do we close our eyes when we sneeze? I believe its some reflex action but why? Can someone please give me some revelations?

I reckon its dangerous if I keep on closing my eyes when I drive :)

I'm So Sorry, Auntie Kamariah!

Just a brief intro, my left-handside neighbour are Malays while my right-handside neighbour are angmohs. My Malay neighbour loves hosting jamuan and I always see tents pitched up at their house compound.

Just two days back, I saw the tents again. Mom told me this time its not a jamuan but my neighbour's wife passed away in an accident. The accident took place at 4am in the morning. Being a Muslim, one needs to be buried before the sun sets. Its something unexpected and just imagine, my neighbour losts his wife and the kids lost their mom just overnight. Yesterday you see her, today you don't. At least if diseases, we can tell how long one still have and we can make the best out of the remaining time but accidents, no. It's so sad, isn't it?

That day in steamboat I was just telling Juvee that the worst part was that my neighbour hasn't known Jesus yet! The bible tells us that Jesus is THE ONLY way, truth and life!

Just imagine this scenario.... "on the way to hell"

Neighbour: Hey, where are you taking me to? I thought I'm going to heaven?

Angel: I'm sorry but your name is not listed in the Book of Life.

Neighbour: Book of Life? What's that? I thought Islam said that we can get to heaven?

Angel: I'm so sorry to tell you but Jesus is the only way to heaven. So, you can't come in.

Neighbour: But but, no one tells me bout Jesus! Even my neighbour didn't tell me and they call themselves Christians! And I invite them over for rendang during Raya. Pfft! Can you please give me one more chance so that I can tell my family about the Book of Life and Jesus?

Angel: Well, I afraid you can't. Let's hope and keep our fingers crossed that your neighbour will do their part...

O.O omg now I feel so bad. Sometimes its not that they don't want to know bout Jesus, but they don't have the chance to know Him since nobody shares with them. It's so sad.

I'm so sorry, Auntie Kamariah! :(

A Good Head-Start

Quite a number of you asked me bout my work. Thank you so much for the showed care (at least I know who's with me). Appreciate it alot!

This new phase has been taking me in quite well. Just started two days and haven't really done alot. Never would I expect that this position is not that hard after all (maybe not just yet) but I believe challenges would thrill our lives further, adding in some excitement whilst increasing the adrenaline flow right? Which is a good thing.

So far it's all cool. And I'm liking it :)



On the first day itself, I was to attend a meeting with the Operation Manager of my principle company (the word 'attend meeting' sounds so.......... right? Ahh nevermind). Then lunch with my new friendly colleague (Chris) and we dropped by 2 clinics just to say hello to the doctors and introduced ourselves. And we called it a day! So nice right?

The second day (today), I had to attend a meeting in Sunway (Apex, behind 3K). My boss actually text-ed me the night before if I wanna join her for breakfast before the meeting. I told her what I wanted to eat (pan mee @ 3k there) IF I could wake up earlier and make it there on time. She said no problem and guess what? Breakfast was on her! Blessings! (Note: Btw, she smokes! whoah)

We were done with the meeting quite early and I was asked to decide on where to lunch. Being undecided and with my ajak-ajak ayam attitude (yes, xuewen, yet again!), I unintentionally asked the manager from the Nestle team (who happened to stand next to me when boss made me decide) if she wants to join us for lunch and guess what? She took it seriously and came with us! Haha! So we ended up in Che Go, a korean restaurant in Pyramid.



The food's not bad I'd say and they have this lunch promotion thingy. Each set costs just RM16.90+ which includes a maincourse, 2 side dishes, fruits and ginseng/green tea. Not bad right?


Hot & Spicy Chicken Ramen



Side dishes & fruits

The food was good. The fellowship was good.


Chris (colleague) and Sharon (boss)


And guess who paid the bill?



Yeah, the manager from the Nestle team who I ajak-ajak-ed ayam at! omgosh.

After 17 years..

... of non-stop education (from kindergarten to uni), I'll be starting a new phase of my life tomorrow. A brand new chapter.

Shea asked if I was nervous or excited. Neither.

I don't know what's ahead of me or how my future's gonna be but I believe my future's decided and He's the one holding my future! I believe I'll have to face alot of crosspaths as I walk but He'll be with me at all time. Whenever I fall, He'll pick me up; hold my hands and walk with me.

Just like the night before my first day of internship, I believe His very favour is with me :)

Love Is Cinta.

(pure coincidence?)

Like how Mun Wah puts it just now, Valentine is not just for couples but for everyone. And Harvest Youth gave our all just now and celebrated it with our ultimate spiritual lover, Jesus Christ.

This Valentine's Day thingy was first started by this guy called Valentine and now thanks to Marketing, everything has been so commercialized!Uber packed dining places with extremely expensive roses and chocolates (yeah its good to pamper your girlfriends, guys) for just today.

Somehow I personally feel that we shouldn't just express our love only on Valentine's Day. If possible and not too demanding, maybe everyday?

And I've been wanting to say these (just in case I tak sempat say these next time):

Love you Su Ann (and Happy Birthday again!!)! Love you I Fen!



Love you Xuewen! Love you Amelia!



Love you Mun Wah! And my cousins!



Love you Harvest Youth! Love you Sab!



Love you The Gang! Love you Mayjean, Jean Nee, Yiwei, Sian and Tammy!



Love you Summer Gang (heh! yeah love you Shea!)!



Love you Jokien, Jinchong, JinSeon! Love you yk and eevon and sueli!

Love you too, Cikgu Toh (and the rest of the Singaporeans)!



Aiyo love you all la, people! Happy Valentine's! :)

What Would You Do?

I was reading someone's profile and found out that his friend (one year older than me) passed away in his sleep suddenly. That guy is a real gifted guy, a man after God's own heart and he has been faithfully serving and all. In short, he's a great man.

Though he may be young, but the truth is, he passed away.

I've been thinking this over. In fact, it is true. That's no such thing as too young to die. I'm not being overly paranoid here bout death, nor am I scared of death. I'm not. I just wonder what have I done in my life.

Have I done enough? Have I been faithfully working towards His will? Have I been blessing people with what I have? Have I confronted and apologized to everyone that I've unintentionally hurt? Will all the misunderstandings and issues clear on their own?

More, will people come for my wake service? Will they have something to testify bout myself? Or is it just all bad things and gossips that I have left in their lives? Have God used me to actually touch their lives (even if its just a size of a pea)?

I don't know. I really don't know. I've been so discouraged these days with things, with words, with people and their actions.

--

So what will you do if I die? I posted this question to two person just now.

The first person's answer was, "what can I do? You already died what".

Owh, thats very true. But what I meant was would you even come for my wake? Would you grief? Or would you just feel 'owh what a pity, she died' and lets move on with life? But its reality la. Okay.

Another said, "mk, im too busy now and have too many things in my mind now (she asked me for transport to airport and don't understand why cant I drive there). I'm tired and can I not answer you now? And you're not dying also"

Very realistic. Bagus.


Parasite friends? Maybe? Ask, get and leave. What more have I got to offer? Maybe only to your enquiries bout studies in Monash. Thankyou.

Sometimes I really wonder, is there someone out there still with me? I think i really need assurances.

Fatty Crab Sdn. Bhd.

Apparently, this Fatty Crab Sdn Bhd located at Taman Megah offers really humongous crabs cooked in their very own specialty spicy gravy.


crab in spicy gravy (usually gravy is dipped by the toast bread sold at 30 cents per piece)

Being someone whose professional job is to eat and sleep and was brought up in Klang for 20 years, I'd think that Klang offers similar good (or better) quality crabs at wayyyyyyyyy lower price (also can be translated as better offer/good customer value) than these crabs. Don't get me wrong, they're good. The crabs sold here are all solid fresh crabs but too bad, my sisters and I haven't quite gotten the hang of the new gravy taste. It's a tad bit too spicy for myself (cili-padi taste).

I'd rate it 7/10

Nevertheless, this


golden fried rice

and these


fried chicken wings (sold at RM 2 per piece)

are CANNOT-BE-MISSED items. I love them alot, like, really alot! They taste really awesomely good!

I'd rate them 9.5/10 ('cause there's no such thing as perfect except Jesus and so there's always this thing called room-for-improvement here and there)

And these too:


beef (darker colour) and chicken (lighter colour) satays

I'm not/never a big fan of satays but I'd say that I don't mind eating these. In fact, I'd prefer these over the satays grilled by the malays. Okay, no racist issue here but just the fact is that these satays are all lean meats and have almost no fats at all (again there's no such thing as perfect or 0% fats, so i'd dare to say maybe 1% of fats existed? haha!). I don't like fatty meat (not because I'm on diet though yeah, according to mom i'm too fat and i should diet) and the texture of it. Okay la, some of you might start to think that I don't know how to really appreciate nice food and I failed as a food reviewer la. haha too bad...

Stop & Stare

An event that you won't wanna miss out! See you there tomorrow (Saturday)!

p/s: should you have any enquiries bout this event, text/call me or ask anyone here.




UPDATES as of 7th Feb:




Harvest Youth, give yourself a pat on the back! Well done!
