Family Ties.

Today's one of the rare days where we went for a jog as a family. It was a good sweat out, and of course, the feeling of togetherness.

I decided to give my car a good clean up after jog (I've been wanting to do that for a week already but time just doesnt permit me). My both sisters and I actually bergotong-royong-ed cleaning one car while my parents went out to pack dinner. And as a token of appreciation, I'd buy them Burger King for supper later :) (and oh yes, finally Klang has our first Burger King outlet). At least Mun Wah was of better help by vacuuming and wiping the inside of my car, unlike Mun Sheung who only managed to wash 1/4 of the car's body leaving the other 3/4 for myself -.-

And good news! Finally mom has agreed (and allowed us) to get a keyboard (I'd prefer a digital piano though) when dad has already said yes years back! :) I wonder when we'll really get it but its a good sign for a good start already. Yippee cant wait!

Nicholas will be back next week. Cheok Yeen kor kor is back for good. I can already smell the fun times! Should we have a road trip together please?

From The Above.

Everything has been good thus far. God is good all the time!

A few weeks ago, I was assisting in an event and accidentally came in contact with this guy who I reckon is a doctor. After offering him the sample drink, he made me explain how the thing works and how can patients be benefited by it. With my usual presentation of medical info, light came and he said that he saw the potential right in me and i'm the one that he has been looking for. He straight away offered me a position in his company with almost triple my current pay. He tried persuading me over while my boss was watching from behind. He introduced himself as Colin and took my name card.

Everything sounds very attractive right?

He handed me some brochures and asked me to consider it. His offer is still open for me. Later that day when I went through the management of the company, only then I found out that he's a no ordinary man. For God's sake he's not just Colin or Mr Colin for that matter, but Dato' Dr Colin Lee. Omgosh right? And he's the Managing Director of the company and hospital. Gasp.

Anyway, guess what? I've rejected it.

I believe God's favour has been upon me and doors will be opened at all times. I'm still loyal to my current company :)

And yeap, June '09 that we've been talking about since last year's approaching! It's not an event or a show but the starting point, the turning point for Harvest Youth ministry to a young people's church, Harvest Youth Church.

And oh, did I mention Church? Yeap, we'll no longer be just a ministry or youth group to fit young people in so that they wont waste time elsewhere but we'll be running it like a church, seeing people's life getting impacted and be the salt and light in this city -- the City of Klang.

I believe God will not leave us where we are but He'll bring us to another level as He has been preparing us from yesteryears. I'm very excited bout it, so, do come join us! We're all a bunch of (really) friendly folks

Today I got myself a new pair of jogging shoes!


I'm so loving it (not so much of the design but the feeling when you wear it) and I can't wait to bring it to the tracks!

Thank you, Pharmalink for contributing part of these shoes (my birthday gift from the company)

Heart Speaks.

Yesterday's feeling was a mixed one. Excitement, joy, familiar accents and dialects/languages (and smell, heh!) -- In short, I really miss them, like alot.

I believe sometimes we don't mean what we say, especially when we say we miss someone etc but this time, I really do. The feeling was definitely different and you know, you can just smile all day long in their company and with their (usual lame) jokes along with their crazy gestures.

Yiwei, come back more often so that I have all the excuses to meet up with you all :)

--

On side notes, thank you to all of you who wished me through text messages or facebook or those who brought me out for meals to 'celebrate'. I really appreciate every gesture and thoughtfulness of yours. Xuewen and Amy, you girls never fail to place your birthday wishes on the hall of fame in my heart. Hugs!

These days alot of people have been telling me that Mun Sheung looks so like me, is that true? Well, I still beg to differ.

Selayang HotSpring & Kuala Selangor.

If most of you have been following this blog, part of my work requires me to travel quite abit to different places in Klang Valley/Selangor. In cities like Subang and Klang, there's nothing to shout about except for their food maybe. But in places like Selayang..?

So I was in Selayang last week (or was it last two weeks?) and after I've done visiting some clinics in Selayang Jaya, I decided to check out some local attractions there using my GPS.



Who would expect hotsprings there right? Apparently, you cannot simply go into any pools as you want because of the differences in temperature. You might burn yourself.



And so, I started off by dipping my feet into the least hot one. Its actually luke warm water and it feels soooooooooo good! Especially after a long day work. So refreshing.



When I got bored with this one already, I moved to another one, a higher temperature one. This one we're not allowed to dip our legs in. We can only scoop out the water if we want to keep clean. And its freaking hot I tell you. I had to quickly withdraw my hand out the minute I dipped it in to test the water. If you put eggs in it for a while, they'd boil! I swear!



Its so hot that smoke comes out of them, evaporating away. Doing facial there would be a good idea. Or maybe hair treatment? LOL. It'd help you to open up your pores, clearing them with the rich-in-mineral water. I was told that people from all over come to shower with this miracle water. People with skin diseases usually will be healed after bathing with these water for 1/2 a year. How miraculous!



Oh well, I can only put my legs on the small stream-like running (hot) water with my slippars on.

All in all, a good experience I would say :)

Next, we went to Kuala Selangor too!



According to the itinerary, we were supposed to get there to catch the sunset from the Canon Hill of Bukit Melawati, and then seafood and fireflies and get our dear friend home before 9pm.



What a rush right? But guess what, we made it but with 20 minutes late. That day was one of the rare days that I actually sped all my way... all in the name of friendship! (We love you, friend!)



Over there, we met alot of monkeys called the Silverleaf monkeys (the uglier version of monkeys with mohawks). So big group that they can become quite nasty.



And one thing is that, they're never scared of human. They're not shy too! They'd do anything to get food from you.



They're great posers too. Natural posers for any camera! If I had a chance, I'd love to videocam xuewen's priceless expressions for you. She was obviously terrified by these creatures while whayying was disgusted with their long tails. I think I had face problem because two of them actually snarled at me when I didn't elicit any attack signs on them. Ugh.









We took some pictures while waited for the sunset.



That place was no doubt beautiful, the serene view from above. But too bad the cloud blocked the sun and so, sunset wasn't obvious.





Since the fact became a fact (that we cant really watch sunset), we drove on to Pasir Penambang (about 3km from Bukit Melawati) for seafood.



We had seafood here, on the bagan?



We literally swallowed our food to save time. We were left with 30 minutes only to drive over to Kg Kuantan (about 7km from Bukit Melawati) for fireflies and then head home before 9pm.


firefly

No doubt the fireflies were soooooooo beautiful! (I've watched these for 3 times already but still amazed by them). Their buttocks flash like nobody's business attracting their opposite sex for mating purposes. Christmas-tree like, really beautiful!



So brilliant right? And their rhythm is so synchronized that I cant tell whose flashes were most attractive. LOL. Each boat can fit 4 people and each boat costs RM40. Do go and watch for yourself, I guess the experience gained is worthwhile! :)

Much Love.
