Just like Carol

With heavy eye lids

2010-10-19T15:51:00.004+08:00

Sweats streaming down my neck and a t-shirt that is sticking to my skin. That once more is yet another typical day of my campus life. The weather is unforgivingly hot and the sunlight stretches out throughout this little town where there lies nothing that isn't revealed as far as I can see right here, oh yes, in a beloved 'chinese' section of the library located on the 2nd floor. As we speak, this ultra 'chinese' part of the library will even automatically change back to its original 'pin wa' (so shoot me I don't know what on earth you call it) language mode while I'm still keying down my words on the keyboard making my words into chinese characters.

As a demonstration, (heavy) -> 和阿

WHAT ON EARTH???

I am left with a very tired body after having not only a class that starts at 8:00am that counsumes 3 hrs but till the extend of another class of 1 1/2 hrs immediatly right after. Take 1/2 hr break and then torment myself with a 2 hr and literally a redundant lecture class for an English language subject that will can easily make my younger sister at her primary stage to mock the subject itself. The sudden unexpecting sound effects from the lecture slides that makes the entire class look as if everyone is experiencing a stroke at the same time.

With all this lenghty classes and brief breaks in between, I am still left with the very last session of my class that begins at 5:00 pm. I don't know how much more strength am I left with to even attend CF meetings at 8:00 pm.

Oh yes, I'm blaberring out my frustration because it is so HOT and I'm TIRED!

oh dear lwarddd!

2010-10-13T00:20:00.002+08:00

oh my gwrash. oh my gwrash! OH MY GWRASSHH!!

JASON MRAZ IN MY FAVOURITE KID'S SHOW SESAME STREET???!!!

*fans herself*

THANK YOU GOD!

What?? Already?

2010-10-01T13:58:00.004+08:00

My semester break is depleting... FAST!

It's the start of the October everyone.

So what I have to say is...

Behold, *leaves a long dramatic pause before she continues* a cat balancing a fat carrot on the head.

Serenade me

I especially love musics where its lyrics is composed in such a way it sweeps your heart away, giving you the chills (the good kind of course), leaving your soul mesmerized and you secretly act like a diva whenever you sing it out (we all are, so don't you pretend. lol).

My softest spot for music are these kinds of music where they express love is all about not having to use terms like 'boo' or 'shawty' or all those other words that makes my ears bleed and my soul agonised. Here are the few of my selected picks:

DOWNLOAD :

Bruno Mars - Just the way you are

Norah Jones - Come away with me

Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing

Miranda Cosgrove -Kissin U

The Script - Science & Faith

Frank Sinatra - Just the way you look tonight

The Pretender - I'll stand by you (Glee cast version)

I've yet read another Mitch

2010-09-28T22:38:00.004+08:00

I've finally completed my reading Mitch's latest release entitled 'Have a little faith'. Initially, I though that I was going to be sicken of having to read another old and wise dying man that Mitch tends to write about after I have been so faithfully embarked on a journey of reading his work on 'Tuesdays with Morrie' , 'The five people you meet in heaven' and 'For one more day'.

However this man sure knows how to put my assumptions to shame. His works are so compelling. Each book that I put down, I reminisce on what I just read and it open my eyes to cherish every moment you have with the people around you and especially with your family.

Here is a summary taken out from http://mitchalbom.com/books/node/5515

Albom’s first nonfiction book since Tuesdays with Morrie, Have A Little Faith begins with an unusual request: an 82-year-old rabbi from Albom’s old hometown asks him to deliver his eulogy.

Feeling unworthy, Albom insists on understanding the man better, which throws him back into a world of faith he’d left years ago. Meanwhile, closer to his current home, Albom becomes involved with a Detroit pastor – a reformed drug dealer and convict – who preaches to the poor and homeless in a decaying church with a hole in its roof.

Moving between their worlds, Christian and Jewish, African-American and white, impoverished and well-to-do, Mitch observes how these very different men employ faith similarly in fighting for survival: the older, suburban rabbi, embracing it as death approaches; the younger, inner-city pastor relying on it to keep himself and his church afloat.

As America struggles with hard times and people turn more to their beliefs, Mitch and the two men of God explore issues that perplex modern man: how to endure when difficult things happen; what heaven is; intermarriage; forgiveness; doubting God; and the importance of faith in trying times. Although the texts, prayers and histories are different, Albom begins to realize a striking unity between the two worlds - and indeed, between beliefs everywhere.

In the end, as the rabbi nears death and a harsh winter threatens the pastor’s wobbly church, Albom sadly fulfills the last request and writes the eulogy. And he finally understands what both men had been teaching all along: the profound comfort of believing in something bigger than yourself.

Have a Little Faith is a book about a life’s purpose; about losing belief and finding it again; about the divine spark inside us all. It is one man’s journey, but it is everyone’s story.

'Have a little faith' speaks loudly on how important it is with your walk in life with God. Faith is the essence that God assail us though from our doubts and burden of life where men cannot do.

1 John 4:4

Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world

All and all, take the opportunity to read it. ;)

BANG!

This show never seem to fail to lit me up with a hearty laugh. If you have not watched it yet, I would suggest you to give a go at it.

I'll brief you about what the show is about. It is about 4 nerds and a hot chick. What is so great you ask? It is awesomeee!

Trust me, words don't justify enough.

On the plus side, it is that awesome that you have 4 seasons to follow. yay!

Care for a cup?

2010-09-28T21:22:00.007+08:00

I admit it. I'm just a lover of teas.

Here are some interesting facts that I plucked out from the web :

There are four main types of tea: white, green, oolong, and black. But depending on the influence of culture, these four types can turn into thousands of varieties.
Tea can also help regulate cholesterol.
Drinking tea is also good for the heart.
One pound of loose tea can make about 200 cups.
Loose leaf tea can stay for about a year if properly stored and sealed.
The tea bag was invented in the early 20th century by a tea merchant named Thomas Sullivan. This was done by accident too.
More tea facts about health suggest that tea may help prevent certain cancers, and tea has been known to fight tumors.
A cup of tea may keep the dentist away, yes I said 'dentist'. This is because tea helps fight cavities.
Don't through that old tea out! Instead try putting it in the refrigerator to help absorb odors, or use in your garden as fertilizer.
The English word for tea is, well, "tea". However the Chinese word for tea is "cha".
Cold season coming up? Drinking tea helps boost the immune system do to its natural antibacterial properties.
Although many tea facts point to white and green teas as being the healthiest, a cup of black or oolong tea proves just as good.

Trashy sight

2010-09-28T18:48:00.009+08:00

It is inevitable. Whilst you await for a bus in the bus stop, or when you take a walk in the park, taking a seat at the public bench, crossing by the road and perhaps over a drain cover by the pavement. Take a look on the ground and what comes to your sight first?

For some of you, what comes to sight will most likely be a piece of used tissue all crumbled into a size of a fist, a translucent plastic bag where you can visibly see traces of ketchup or teh tarik, a yeo's drink box carton or coca-cola can with its straw still attached to it, an empty spritzer bottle of water, paper/styrofoam plates and cups, a styrofoam boxes with the hideous stains of sambal chili oil, a single left/right footwear, a piece of toy that you can cheaply get from a slot machine that is missing its parts, a mamee snack noodle or a prawn flavour double deckers snack plastic packet, or maybe even plastic spoons and forks. You can sum these things up in one word.

Trash.

It is so unsightly but yet we now live among it. I sometimes wonder why do we continually even bother to produce these things if they are to be ended up lying around to live for another eternity when it can be produced within mere seconds? Then I come to think once more what would it be like if we really extinct these products.

It would be like being in a party without enough plates, spoon or fork, nor cups. It would be like having to 'tau pau' your food from a hawker stall not having anything to pack it in. It would be like you have to brew your own drinks on the go. It would be like having to wipe your nose on the sleeve of your shirt each time you sneeze. That is inconvenience.

It is as what I read from 'Cradle to Cradle by McDonough and Braungart' , that men reasons for inventions are to ease our style of living more than their intention to harm nature.

As for most of us, we enjoy the fact that anything disposable is no longer part of our responsibility. We consume, we use, we throw. As to where do we throw our rubbishes into that lies the problem.

Does the road or the drain seem to be the most convenient place?

I cannot seem to make any understanding why on earth do we even bother to make trash containers if rubbishes are meant to be thrown into. If a trash containers is already full, I urge to those who habits to throw your trash 'elsewhere' to hold on to it till you find another trash container.

Keep a good habit of keeping the place clean. Though people may not applaud your effort each time you throw your rubbish into the trash container. Your reward is intrinsic and that is what you should be proud of.

It is never too late. Start right this instant! ;)

It is soo adorable!

I know that this blog was at the pit of death on its own from deprived post updates from its owner.

So may I direct everyone attention to the cute and greedy lil hamster by the picture that is trying to stuff in an entire strawberry while its friend there is trying to distract us from with its innocence.

Happy? :)

More importantly, my blog is now with yet another new look with a new perspective of life.

Enjoy.

There goes my first semester in my first year in UTAR. What is my verdict? Time was pretty darn brief and hasty if you asked me. Everything literally passed by in a flash. At one point I was attending lectures, grouping members, rushed to complete our assignments, performed our group presentations in class and in a blink I sat for my final exam paper on a Saturday and now it is already a Monday of the following week. Sometimes it feels as if God dug out the pause button in time.

This is a turning point of life where we are now centered on relationships, scholarships, abroad studying, independence, internships and careers. I'm quite amaze with the pace of life that everyone manages and this got me bidding our formal life goodbye.

We are never once as we were before and changes are to become of us.

It just doesn't sum up

2010-06-18T19:29:00.005+08:00

How would you equate an equation of 1 1/2 yr of torment and an emotional battle of a form 6 life?

Thats right, I feel absolutely wasted.

I have only upu to thank for. *screams in agony into her pillow*

argh!!

Blessings after blessings

2010-06-01T22:56:00.004+08:00

I'm so blessed while I'm over here at Kampar. There was barely a moment that I have for myself come to think of it. God continuously answers my prayers and so even provided my every need. In such a short notice of time, I've been blessed with wonderful housemates (which I come to love since they invite me over with them to have a 'yam cha' session at the balcony) and friends after friends that openly offer their companionship to me (I even get free rides over to campus and I've only chanced to use the bus once! that was more than what I bargained for! :D). On top of that, the rainy weather here in Kampar cools the humidity of the area that puts me easily to sleep. I doubt that I will be losing any weight here in Kampar. Who would have ever imagined that my housemates are all great chef. They even brought the proper cooking utensils over here which even allows me to cook! haha! There is simply no way that I'm ever going to starve! As for now, I have a new coursemate friend who is offering to fetch us to the campus which is a total sweet deal. I think I'm happy. *laughs joyfully and continues to type* On top of that, running thru the house, the room and internet connection is as fine as silk.

In short, I'm so loved by God to be provided for. :D

kampar has a sweaty taste

2010-05-25T09:58:00.004+08:00

Oh yes, kampar is a hot stuff. The air is so stagnant because of the mountains that surrounds the place and the sun burns into your skin. To simply put it, I sweat 90% of the time. Within a few hours, the story is plentiful and endless. I will restrain myself from having to blog out about any 'sensitive' or 'spiteful' issues in anyway.

I'm not only stuck in a house filled with foundation kids, but I soon discovered that I might be facing an identity crisis. Many of their names I tend to forget because I'm not good with names but these two names are the one that is going to stick with me forever: Carol and Meow. OMGEE! At least the Carol girl compromise immediately to be called by her Chinese name since if ever I was called by mine I would have not have responded but instead I will looking out for who is it instead. Memang tak boleh. haha

I've met many friends that are from Penang, Ipoh, Kuantan, Sarawak, KL and etc. As for my attempt to speak Mandarin, haha. At least I spoke a couple of Mandarin words before switching it back to English and I'm happy to know that there are ppl who eventually come to accept it and try their best to converse back in my own comfort language. Of course, I am learning Mandarin the hardest way.

Speaking of which, I don't think I can tell the UTAR student faces nor their names apart anymore. The prime language is as you know it by now already, Mandarin. Even the lady from the Department of Finance (DFN) was so curious where am I from and when I told her, she replied that I should know how to speak in Mandarin. Even the menus are completely written in Mandarin, if I ever starve, you know why la. Oh mannn.. I'm in China.

The campus is humongous! I was more than trilled that a couple of friends and strangers pointed out a shorter route to reach many places (you can cut down on 5 min from walking). By the way, falculty H is going to be the death of me. It is literally at the other end of the campus. Thank God he brought friends that are studying in the same falculty to make friends with. I can't bear to think to go there alone. I will just faint when I'm near falculty C.

All and all, it is quite the experience. haha

deranged

2010-05-03T22:21:00.003+08:00

I'm so restless for the past few days. Tired and unmotivated to do anything. Emotionally upset because I hadn't been able to sleep properly. Drained and agitated. Finding no pleasure in the things that I do nor see. Keeping my sanity and my insanity to myself.

My body cries out for slumber, my mind refuse to coroperate. Laying awake on my bed, desperate to fall asleep and to be awake in a couple of hours later with a throbbing head. I'm deranged.

God, I pray this situation will be reversed and I may find anew the joy I need.

I'mma gonna rant

2010-04-30T10:45:00.003+08:00

There's nothing much to it when you're home alone with a very limited tv programs to catch on astro, with very poor internet connection to even connect to a simple web page, with very few good books left to entertain myself, without a car to drive around as I like, without having friends that live close by so that we can simply pay a visit to each other as we like, having to mostly cook for myself around the day, I get bored during the worst hour of the day that is at night which I'm finding very hard to sleep and then waking up really early to repeat the same routine or hence, I'm kind of dull lately. hahaha

Mental preparation to UTAR is now 65% complete. hahaha

Red Sunday

2010-04-18T17:40:00.004+08:00

My sister Jamie cast me into the usher team today since they are in a shortage of helping hands making me more essential than I really am. Initially I was suppose to be pressing buttons in the lift which I come to think of it should have been fun than scanning the temperature of church members and then slapping a sticker onto their collarbone, chest or arm (my choice). haha

Anyway, I had my fun time being the one behind the (red) welcome usher team for once. What I really have to do is just to pick up an electronic temperature scanner, run the laser from the forehead to the temple of the eye, await for the 3 beeps from the scanner, read temperature, nods approvingly to the church member, reads temperature out loud or just praise them for their health maintenance (if I feel like it) and lastly slaps on a sticker on them.

Doesn't sound all that hard now isn't it? Well it isn't, not unless you are a Carol that is.

I had situations where these things happens,

Me : Good morning, may I run a temperature check?
Auntie 1 : Oh, ok ok ok!
Me : *scans temperature*
Auntie 1 : *squint eyes*
Me : *grins*
T.S : *beep beep beep*
Me : 36.1 Celsius. Alright, *slaps on the sticker on collar*. God bless. *smiles*
Auntie 1 : Thank you sister. Hey your turn. *taps the shoulder on her friend*
Auntie 2 : Oh, me too huh? *lift up fringes*
Me : Ya, even the ushers have to be scanned. *points sticker on collar while running the laser across the forehead*
Auntie 2 : *looks at me with a dead serious face as the beep came*
Me : 36.0 Celsius. *smile*
Auntie 2 : What does that mean? What is that in Fahrenheit?
Me : *blanks out and dumbstruck-ed*
Auntie 2 : *continues to do her dead serious stare at me*
Me : Err... *struggling to mentally do a calculation to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit for a mere second and discover I don't know how to*
Auntie 1 : Aiyahhh! That means ok la.
Me : *tries to make a smooth recovery from looking dumb and doing mental calculations that she doesn't know of* Ya, that means that is a ok temperature.
Auntie 2 : Oh, ok la ok la. *walks off*

Me : Good morning!
Man : *walks up to me and stares down his neck* Morning. *smiles*
Me : I need to do a temperature check.
Man : Ok, no problem.
Me : *lift hand above the head and runs the scan*
Man : *tries to take a peek at the laser and then back to me*
Me : *runs the scanner, back to the from the temple back forehead awaiting for the beep*
Man : *slowly lowers himself down*
Me : *starts to lower my hands down as well* Eck..
Man : *places hands on knees and having to stare from eye to eye level with me*
Me : *beeps* I'm not that short la. *reads the temperature and slaps on a sticker*
Man : *guffaws at me and walks off*

Me : Good morning, temperature check?
Guy : Sure, *quick nod* no prob. *grins*
Me : Alright. *repeats the routine with a smile*
Guy : *looks at me mischievously*
Me : *continues to wait for the beep*
Guy : *dodges from the laser* Woops!
Me : Arck! *gives an oh mm gee face*
Guy : Hahaha!
Me : Aiyo. You suddenly moved. Now I have to do all over again.
Guy : Aiyo. Ok la.
Me : *does the scan one more time and give him a dead serious look this time*

Lady : Morning sister. *strides joyfully into the entrance*
Me : Good morning, I need to do a temperature check sister. *smiles*
Lady : Ok ok.
Me : Please lift up your fringe. *does a lift up the fringe action with own fringe*
Lady : Oh, oh, sure! *pulls back fringe*
Me : *lift up scanner and presses the off button* Oh my goodness!
Lady : *raises her eyebrow looking confused*
Me : I accidentally pressed the off button.
Lady : .... *an awkward silence between the two of us while her husband caught up with us*
Me : This is my first time ushering. *desperately trying to switch the scanner back on while making a lame excuse*
Lady & her husband : HAHHAHAHAH!

Towards the end of my duty shift, I am now under the considered list of usher to be requited into the team. A total oh mm gee for me la.

the jitterbug

2010-04-14T00:48:00.004+08:00

I got a serious bite case from these jitterbugs lately. The symptoms are as followed : a shock rave of nerves that disable your mind to be at peace and an emotional unrest to the heart; in short, insomnia.

I am so nervous (and I can't help it)! All I can think of is UTAR, KAMPAR, UTAR!

Everything is just too sudden. I have within a month or less to start packing up. Just today I'm listing out my essential needs that I should bring along, laptop, bed sheet spread, pillow and pillow case, alarm clock, floor rug, table clock, table calender, pad locks, flash light, toilet rolls, detergent, brush, broom and dustpan, dustbin, basket, extension cord, and the list goes on.

Not having your family around is depressing. It is true no matter how much I try to mentally prepare myself for it till the very day I have to depart from them.

Boy oh boy won't my brain shut up.

Kampar

2010-04-11T15:18:00.008+08:00

Yup, it is finally official that there is where I'll be heading to next month. Well, I'm still trying to digest everything that had just happened in a short notice since my approval of the application to UTAR course of BACHELOR OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (HONS) BANKING AND FINANCE at the Perak (Kampar) Campus. My dad with his snap decision yesterday's morning to take a cruise around the campus had eventually secured a rented student housing room for my comfort stay there. May I add that the sight of the campus was breathtaking. There is nothing false about the picture above. There really are mountains, lakes, birds of different species flopping their wings above the horizon, the space capacity of the area, you name it.

That is about 2-3 hrs ride. It takes quite a journey. I will brag about this one thing for sure. The Lord has been exceedingly good to me indeed. Never in my lifetime for once that I imagined myself to be where I am today. I am such a blessed child to have both of my heavenly Father and a earthly father who loves me and showers their blessings over me.

However, there is still a room for consideration when the IPTA admission announcement is made. If there were to be a gracious spot for me to attend to UM then by all means that is a big wave of goodbyes to my UTAR. Still, this are just the chances that we are still awaiting.

One thing that is for sure, I don't get why on earth do I tend to put myself with those Chinese people regardless of anything that speaks their mother tongue language. No offense HSK, but my moment there was completely Mandarin. Now to meet my next challenge, CANTONESE! Oh mm gee, man. BUT! The food there are mercifully delicious. I'm going to be a complete circle if I really do pursue my full course there. haha

nuh-uh girlfriend!

2010-04-08T10:05:00.014+08:00

Just this Monday I finally got a sniff of the DKNY candy apples fragrant and I am awestruck by how much I was in love the (green) sweet caramel candy apple. Then again, being around the cosmetic department really can be an amusing place especially when you encounter almost any of the male salesman. So anyway, the most tragic part of my story is that I had to talk to one... not me really, my sister Jamie did the talking (pheww, gives a quick wipe on the forehead).

*walks to the DKNY perfume department*
Jamie : Excuse me.

LKS : Yes? *gets up from seat, straightens up, rise both hands just below his shoulders, curl his
fingers inwards and makes a small bouncy walk to the counter*

Jamie : Is there any tester for the DKNY candy apples perfume?

LKS : Of course. *blinks slowly as he swing his body forward then back to position*

Jamie : May we smell the perfumes please?

LKS : Yes, yes, yes of course darling! *takes out a strip of white cardboard paper* Alright, this is the sweet caramel candy apple *picks up the green candy perfume bottle as he talks* and so.. *holds the strip of paper in one hand as the other hand sprays the perfume on and sway his hands away just below the shoulders and draws his head backwards and quickly squint his eyes in process*

Me : *rise an eyebrow and was entertainingly amused*

LKS : *hands the strip of paper to Jamie*

Jamie : *takes a sniff, nods approvingly and hand the strip to me*

Me : (oh mmm gee) it smells really nice!

LKS : Yes, this is a veerrryy special limited edition of the DKNY perfume, yes.

Jamie : Can we have the tester for the other candy apples as well?

LKS : Of course, of course! *does the same amusing act on the other 2 perfume*

Me : I like the green one better. It smells nicer than the cherry blossom one *points at the common pink perfume bottle*

LKS : Ah hahahaha, my dear it is called fresh flower laaaaa.. *manlish giggle*

Me : Really? I thought it was called cherry blossom. *looks pathetic*

LKS : Ahaahahahhahaahha *continues to giggle at me*

Jamie : Err.. Is it alright that you spray it on my wrist.

LKS : Ok darling. *performs the same act as he did to the paper strip unto Jamie's wrist*

Me : I really like the apple caramel.

Jamie : Ok tell you what, why don't you spray on her wrist too?

LKS : Haiyoooo, like already still want to try le? *looks over shoulder and gives a manja face as he walks away from the counter to retrieve the bottle while the both of us grimace* Ok la, *takes out the perfume bottle and sprays on my wrist*

Me : Alright, I'll think about it. It is really nice. Thank you.

LKS : Let me tell you darling that you better buy soon, very limited edition only. Trust me dear, I know one. I work here. You will regret. *hands out his name card*

Me : *hesitated to take it but Jamie told me too anyway* Thanks.

LKS : Alright, don't make my heart break, ok? I very sad one you know *places his hands on his shoulder blades*

brrr! *shivers at the sight of the thought*

Well it doesn't really matter. Posting up a pic of a name card or not. I think that I'm literally doing him a favour if anyone really wants to stalk him. Like big time.

sneezing lion

2010-03-09T11:48:00.004+08:00

I couldn't contain myself anymore. Hanging out with my sister and my brother sometimes make me feel that I'm a little less a cookadoodle then they really are.

So me and my sister Jamie was at the dinning hall when we heard our dog, Rocky was sneezing his lungs out for 24 times in a row.

Me : Hey, you know what Rocky sounds like when he sneezes? *sips on her drink*
Jamie : *puts down her cup* Like a sneezing lion?
Me : ..... WHAT??????!! HAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!
Jamie : Why what's wrong???
Me : Have you even heard how a lion sneezes?
Jamie : Well.. Haved you?
Me : No-ooo!
Jamie : Then, you can't accuse me that I'm wrong right?

So just to resolve the mystery. I present to you.. the sneezing lion. LOL!

It is all about perspective

Download : Casting Crowns - Voice of truth.mp3

______________________________________________________

Oh,what I would do to have
the kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is,
And he's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name
and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win,
You will never win

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

Oh, what I would do
to have the kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant
with just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound
of a thousand warriors
shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out
my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
time and time again
"Boy you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

But the stone was just the right size
to put the giant on the ground
and the waves they don't seem so high
from on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
when I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
singing over me

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
The Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe)
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the Voice of truth
I will listen and believe
'Cause Jesus you are the Voice of truth
And I will listen to you.. oh you are the Voice of truth

My sudden depression attack (perhaps from being stuck at home too often) that I had just a couple of days ago had turned into a delightful surprises in just mere minutes and it is by a power of a simple prayer that I sighed out from my gloominess.

All I went was "Thank you God that I will have to be depressed anymore and that you will find me something to rejoice in"

With such short power prayer I had..

1. a new hairstyle (just a temporary perm my mom thought it would fit a look)
2. a new phone (neonode n2 as a reward for my effort =D)
3. a new showcase house to visit to
4. a new vest (finally something that I want! I have been hunting for one for ages!)
5. a new dress (both the vest and dress that I've bought from kitschen)
6. a new set of contacts to wear (purevision contacts)
7. a new found faith in God (once again) to turn negative situations into the positive!

that was more than I actually bargained for. =)

breath in and out!

2010-02-25T23:45:00.002+08:00

I'm glad that I went through f6.. with God by my side. I know I've dramatise my f6 life on my blog on a numerous account but I can safely say that most of my horrific tale of my stressed out life ends with a note of assurance that God is still moving me forward to a blessed future. Yes, He sure did prove me right with my STPM results today. I'm so glad that God always live up beyond his promises.

It is sort of a trembling experience to have your eyes set on a result slip that you have been working on for 1 1/2 yrs. I will admit however that I do wish that my results were just a lil better than it was though it was a proven revelation of His favour written down on my slip but I have no complains with where I stand right now. So much that I have a big urge to shop! (Go figure how my results really are, haha)

Not to forget, a round of applause to each and everyone of my friends nontheleast on their performance with the STPM examination. Well done everyone, there is nothing more to be ashamed of. As a friend, I'm proud of you. =)

the jitters

2010-02-24T22:44:00.000+08:00

I admit, I am feeling more and more anxious now that the clock is once again ticking down to tomorrow. Dang it!

ye-ouch! it sizzles!

2010-02-19T00:26:00.003+08:00

Who would have thought that my car was such a hot ride till this very moment?

There seems to be something auspicious with the celebration of CNY and the blazing sun. So having my kelisa to enslaving itself for my journey on my ang pao hunt has even taken its very own toll. The freaking car was steaming up from both the inside and the outside in the middle of the freaking bridge. Thank God that we were able to pull up after the bridge (the one near the stor).

I'm too thankful to have Alexis, Tian-Qi and Tian-Qiong (who I'm afraid may not have felt the same way of making a choice to follow my ride, neh neh too bad!) to accompany me with my car crisis. I would most probably freak out on my own. We got the bonnet to open up and man does my car sizzles!

Darn car, making us sweat like pigs. Of course, having an older brother is always a dandy with these situations. Turns out that the fan was faulty.

Oh God, why of why does these things happen at the worst moments? *shrugs*

time to LOL

2010-01-31T23:10:00.008+08:00

Blown away.

Rocky and Bubbles

2010-01-30T22:25:00.005+08:00

I don't get why Americans extends their love for dogs till the end of the earth. A fine specimen to my theory is John Grogan. A man passionate enough to share a journey of his life with a labrador dog that is served in both book and a motion picture. Marley the dog is described to be the world's worst dog that won over hearts of many. Kononnya la.

Americans and their dogs. It sort of hit me why didn't I publish a book about my dogs? Come on, royalties and motion pictures? Well Marley & Me, meet your competition. 'Rocky and Bubbles'

Surely my dogs deserves some lime light for their mentally disabled brains of theirs. That's worst from being the worst.

Blowing out the fire

2010-01-24T23:04:00.005+08:00

That's it! The ideas of birthdays are finally troubling me. It's funny if you come to think about it. Every child loves puffing out the candles as the number gradually becomes more challenging each year and that includes you too.

We all need to grow up eventually. Honestly, I am contented with were I am right now. Shouldn't there be like an 'emergency exit' door for those faint hearted to face the very stage of life for those who wants to bail out? I want out!

The fire of our very youth ironically gets blown out by our very own culprit. us.

Shrugs.

Honest to God. I can make out 3 good 'dust man' and undeniably another 2 more with the accumulation of dust bunnies that are on the verge of conquering my deserted blog. So as to speak.

I just have to reassure my dear readers that I've been under a spell of an affair with the books. Therefore leaving all my other Internet activities neglected.

Oh yes, I'm oblivious to my inattentiveness here. lol

Oh You Bring lyrics

VERSE 1:
Oh You bring hope to the hopeless
And light to those in the darkness
And death to life
Now I'm alive
Oh You give peace to the restless
And joy to homes that are broken
I see You now
In You I'm found

CHORUS:
And You opened the door for me
And You laid down
Your life to set me free
All that I am will serve You Lord
And You opened my eyes to see
All the wonder and awe of Christ in me
Jesus You're everything I need

VERSE 2:
Oh You fill those who are empty
And rescue those in the valley
And through it all You calm my soul
Oh You find me in my weakness
And heal the wounds of my heartache
I worship You in spirit and truth

BRIDGE:
All honour
All glory
All praise to You

Paddling the wheels

2010-01-05T13:42:00.004+08:00

There just seems to be a sheer joy that I love when it comes to cycling. Paddling effortlessly. Moving forward. Gentle breeze that tangles in your hair. An endless unwinding road transporting you to sights to be discovered and rediscovered. The sun that's shyly peeking from behind the clouds, curiously. A small bead of sweat on your forehead. Yet, both satisfied and blissed. Grasping every second that passes by. Embracing the moments.

A new chapter of life has begun and retold.

my future

2009-12-31T23:20:00.002+08:00

I shan't worry what will my future bring.
The Lord will embrace me through my difficult times and remain as my eternal comfort of love.

Thank you 2009! I've grown more than I could have ever imagined. =D

The Lion King

2009-12-16T14:13:00.006+08:00

"Whatever the light touches is yours"

Today, I'm going to blog about The Lion King. Aside from being another all time favourite Disney's classic film it holds a very strong message of knowing who we are in our rightful place. Watching back the film, and being more mature in understanding. I was deeply moved once again.

The story revolves around a young cub (Simba) who faced condemnation throughout his life as he grows into a majestic lion. Because of his uncle's (Scar) jealousy against his father (Mufasa) taking the throne, Scar plotted a stampede scheme to kill both Mufasa and Simba to take over the heritage. Though Simba was saved by his father from being killed in the stampede, Scar put the blame on the cub on Mufasa's death. Condemned, the cub ran away and buried his past behind him.

As time goes by, Simba eventually forgotten his purpose to take over the throne that was rightfully his. When his childhood friend confronted him and even convince him to return to his kingdom, Simba refuses. The overwhelming sorrow of his father's death that hunts him couldn't bring him to pass. He was lost, hurt, condemned and his esteem was low. The more he tries to forget, the more his bitter past resurfaced.

A good friend of Mufasa, Rafiki (the baboon) guided back Simba to the right path. Simba was reminded by his father of who he really is. Watch the attached video.

Being back on his feet again, Simba went back to fight with Scar to regain back his rights. Frightened, Scar took advantage to condemn Simba once again of the past. Not all of Scar's plan has fallen in line and resulting in a victorious victory for Simba to be throned.

Isn't it wonderful how the story speaks of the beautiful bond between a child and a father. Just like we are with our heavenly Father. We often forget who we are in life and we let condemnation take us down. We are like Simba in a way, we forgotten that we are the child of the Highest King and we let the whispers of our mistake to astray us away from our Father. The bitter root of condemnation sink down deep in our hearts, finding fault and not to forgive ourselves.

We have got to shake off this negative attitude to continue to pollute our life that is taking us away from God's blessings. Just like Scar, the devil deceives our thinking that we are not worthy to live in God's presence. Remember, we are created in God's perfect image. Our values cannot simply be brought down by the devil.

Like a 100$ dollar. Thorn, crumpled and dirty the 100$ dollar becomes it is still a 100$ dollar in value!

So are we who are still precious in our Father's eyes no matter what the circumstances are! The devil may have plotted schemes to destroy your life but God is in control and nothing the devil can do will exceed God's power. We are walking in the light of God! Step out of your darkness that you are facing and let your path be right be God. Because what God propers you in life will be in abundance! =D

like whut?

2009-10-07T21:35:00.015+08:00

One of my favourite Disney movie classics was recently aired on channel 615. Oh yes, I can't believe how much I loved and missed my moments with Aladdin. I only remember shrieking together with the stork bird when Aladdin and Jasmine were singing together 'A whole new world'. LOL. Gimme a break, I was merely 4 yrs old when I did that.

Having said that, I'll treat all of you to an all time favourite download that you cannot resist

Here's a clip just to bring you folks back in remembrance of how awesome the show really is, >=D

Howzabout Aladdin going FRENCH for ya. LOL

running after you

2009-10-02T20:03:00.017+08:00

Have a listen.

Writer of ‘Love Came Down’, ‘You Are’ and co-writer of ‘Happy Day’ with Tim Hughes, Ben Cantelon is the worship director for Soul Survivor, a role which takes him all over the world. But it’s not the physical miles that have inspired Running After You, his debut full length album due for release this coming August, Ben’s captivated by a deeper, more personal journey: one that takes us away from ‘business as usual’ and closer to God himself.

With producer Dwayne Larring (Sonic Flood, Tim Hughes), Ben on acoustic guitars and keyboards as well as other musicians including Michael Guy Chislet (Hillsong United) on electric guitars, Running After You has the breadth and force to inspire people and take their journey a few steps further.

‘Running After You links in with the idea of being desperate to follow and connect with God; wanting God to get closer but life getting in the way. So this is a real journey album – full of songs of total praise, lament and confusion, trial and hardship.’ – Ben Cantelon

Like what you listened? =)

Just planned a week of hardcore revision before D-day arrives.

No matter, my faith all lies in God with his loving comfort and guidance to pass me thru. My good days are coming and I know it is true. =)

And not being weak in faith, he did not consider his own
body, already dead (since he was about a hundred years old), and the deadness of
Sarah’s womb. He did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief, but was
strengthened in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully convinced that what
He had promised He was also able to perform.

2009-09-23T19:38:00.005+08:00

Ask yourself this. Have you ever lingered down in a shopping mall with your parents, having yourself fraying away from the track, lost. Frantic, you go searching high and low till you spot daddy. Delighted, you would run up and start holding on to him. Afraid, that you might lose him again. Take a closer look, the both of you are dazzled. Because, turns out that the both of you are plain strangers!

I'll tell you why. Look closely at both this picture.

Seems similar ain't it? I'll tell you what. Only one of them is my real daddy!

LIKE OMGEE!! No wonder la!

(related past post : MUMMY?!)

Note : I had to face a great deal having both photo taken. Scared later kena tumbuk pulak. lol

I am a raging shopaholic alright. So far, I have walked down to Aeon Bukit Tinggi, 1 Utama, Subang Parade, Pavillion, Sungai Wang, and Isetan dragging with me plenty of clothes and foot wears that my mom and dad are now shutting their wallet on me. LOL.

Anyway, shopahol relieves your stpm stresses by a mile! Trust me, you should try some *cough* with me. lol >=D

disaster in the toilet

2009-09-22T22:05:00.005+08:00

Approximately a month ago, I was about to face a disaster in my very own toilet. It first all started off with a minor crack on my toilet's plaster ceiling just right above the door. Frustrated, I reported it to my parents to get it patched up.

So, exactly 2 weeks ago, my toilet was desperate for attention. The freaking ceiling sank!

You would imagine the fear that I have to go through, having to stare at the ceiling while showering as if I was anticipating for the ceiling to collapse on me. I prayed for my life!

My parents wanted to take immediate action, so they called in one of the constructor to do something about it.

I don't get what idiotic thought must have been running though his head, but he sure is clever I admit. Making all the ruckus in the toilet on his ladder, making him sound all important and busy, and just to convince that he knew what was happening, why not shove a plank of wood in between the walls?

Just that night, as I opened the door, BAM BING BOMM! The down came that freaking plank of wood from the ceiling! My heart wasn't even pumping at that exact moment.

Mom : WHAT HAPPENED!!! TIANG LAI (who's that)???!!!
Dad : *ran out from the room holding up his shielded parang* WHO??! HA MIE TAI JIE (what's wrong)??!
Me : Ehhh! Sorry sorry! It's my toilet!
Mom : WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR TOILET?!
Everyone runs into my room, pointed at that stupid plank of wood and then laughed at me.
Bro : Carol, that wood is out to clobber you.
Me : I know! Can you imagine if it were to drop on me which I am showering?!

Stupid plank of wood!

The next day, another constuctor came. Ahh, this time he wants to be even cleverer than the previous one. I was ended up with a ceiling that has been ripped apart.

To be left with what my mom claims that it is still safe to shower in the same condition.

Me : Mom.. who in the right mind would shower under these condition?
Mom : Why not? Can shower what. Aiyooo, don't be so fussy la. No problem one la.
Me : What on earth does it have to do with being fussy?! The ceiling is going to collapse anytime!
Mom : What collapse??? I put that pole there JUST for you to be able to bath.
Me : WHAT???! It's not your toilet ok! That's why you don't feel my pain!
Mom : ... errr... no la..
Me : Mom, you have NO IDEA. If I knocked that pole, I am going to come out from the toilet all white like a ghost ok! Aiyooo!

Here's the best part, it all happened just a couple of days before my trials. The tension was horrific. Thank God it was fixed just a day before.

As we speak, I am able to shower again without anymore anxiety. lol

intensity

2009-08-22T17:00:00.003+08:00

[Note : This is not an economic diagram, lol]

My form 6 life lies between these two points, A and B. The black line of the diagram represents what I called my capacity scale. So as my precious moments of preparation for the numbered days to my trials, I am left with the 2 options to sum up.

Combination A allows me to have higher intensive studying and lesser intensive sleeping. The huge gap of the red arrow from my capacity scale will result a 4 flats (pfftt!) performance for my examination if I keep this up.

Combination B on other hand encourages more intensive sleeping and least intensive studying. Notice the tiny puny blue visible gap from my capacity scale? That's beyond danger point, which I am so proud to admit that I am in that position for the last few weeks. As the result, I barely touched anything!

Darn! .....I hate the fact that this diagram is so educational for me.

intense

2009-08-22T00:51:00.004+08:00

Trials is tailing me up just right next week. During my preperation, I have done plenty of intense sleeping, not studying.

Lagi ironic is that I can even find the time to blog (... and not revising).

opening the door for God

2009-08-10T01:40:00.006+08:00

I would love to share with you with what a friend of mine asked me today.

1. How do you block God's blessing by your own self?
2. How do you open the door to God?
3. Why must you 'conceive it in your mind before you can receive it?'

Let me illustrate a picture for you. Imagine that I am holding a piece of gold in my hand and I am willing to give it away to you. Of course, gold is something unimaginable to be given away. What great value it lies and how much more can you prosper with it.

Here's the big question. Are you take it from me willingly? I mean, after all. It's simply in my hands to be given away. Are you going to walk up to me proclaiming, yes! I want that gold! then definitely you'll take it from my hands with a willing heart. Or are you going to just go, why are you giving this to me? what have I done to deserve it? and to leave your fortune still lying in my hands? Seems silly right?

This applies to God as well. Your fortune in life is lying all in his hands and let me tell you that God's only joy is to release his blessings all into your life. He is so full of love that we can never get enough of His love. To be loved by the Almighty Father who created heaven and earth is amazing. As far as He can love you, are you doing the same in return? To love God back and to proclaim His fortune into your life? Don't limit God's overflowing blessings in your life. Set a wide vision in your life, open up the doors for God to transform your life for the best!

What is your walk with God? To be moving forward with Him bringing you closer to his presence and setting you towards His goal in your life, that's victory! Or are you taking your steps backwards, dwelling in your past and your failure to never progress any further than that? Never to experience the taste of success? It's time to change your track to the right track. Face your future with God's guiding hands. No matter how many times you may stumble, God is going to bring you back to your feet, stronger than ever to face the giants (challenges) in your life. Let the Lord bring everything to past and keeping you forward to the future of his countless of blessings lying ahead.

God has made the battle of David and Goliath effortless. With only 5 stones and a sling, David brought down the giant! David's choice in his weapon made won is because he did not see what the world see, what may seen pointless, useless and weak to defeat something that enormous. It was because David knew that God was on his side to bring him to victory! God turns things that seems weak to be his strength!

Stop clinging on to your weaknesses and hand it over to God to be transformed into your strength! Let your victory be as effortless as David's. Let go! Let GOD! =D

b'day x 2

Double the joy for the duo birthday girl!

There's Sook Fun on the left and followed by Shieh Ren. Yes, I know. It's almost impossible to tell them apart. with the black t-shirt, short hair and small rounded face. darn! lol

As today special on my menu, I cooked the A&W chili hot dog for everyone and instantly got my sign of approval from Shieh Ren to pursue my dreams to cook. (nehh, I'll keep culinary ideas aside, haha)

Everyone hanging out at the signature kitchen =)

Blru-oooowww the candles out girls!

Then comes my turn to steal the lime light from the two girls. lol

Had difficulties trying to figure out how the cake should be cut.

Decoratives are wonderful(-ly pointless).

Anyway, we all had a good time. Mind my face, I am quite sweaty with doing the cooking and running everywhere in the house. I look terrible! lol.

bliss

2009-08-07T23:56:00.005+08:00

STK's "koko" 09

2009-08-04T20:42:00.013+08:00

It was sure one heck of a time I had this time around STK's substitute name for an internal canteen day that is now known as "koko day". I had to wake my butt up all early in the morning, get my clothes on and drag myself to a wacky day at school. Here's a joker who not only brought out a table, but he donated RM5 as a self sympathy, hoping that others will do the same in the middle of the event while he proclaims that he is a 'Mangsa H1N1, Dermalah!! T_T). LOL

Christian Union once again wasn't all much creative in terms of their game which is repeated many times for many years and I bet even many more years to follow. However it is a joy that the Lord has blessed us with good sales this time. God sure makes things work out beautifully when you surrender your trust into Him. =D

See what a simple prayer can do? Everyone is lining up for their turn.

There's just one problem that I cannot shake off. There is no one else besides me and Tian Chai who wore the CU t-shirt while the rest of the committee ain't freakin wearing theirs! The thing is, I'm an expired committee while this fella isn't even one. For shame. lol

There! Watch that freakin Ying Sing without her t-shirt. lol (kidding)

Food wise, I will tell you once again that CU creativity also ended up no where. It is back to mashed potatoes and this time handled by this two new rascals.

I am a rascal myself, trying to help them out. =P

Here's another rascal pretending to even serve the potatoes. No wonder we barely sell for the first couple of minutes.

But there's nothing to complain. We had a good time just playing a part to serve others.

While we get our support from another 4 rascals like these. hehe

The infamous CU game seemed to catch plenty attention from the passer-by. The power of the RM1 soon turned from 4 balls, to 5 then 6 balls in total.

Leon testing out the difficulty of the game.

Then ta-dah dah dahh! Here comes Chew Kit, beaming with joy because he was the first to win a present from our club. Way the go, we squeezed out about RM 10 from this fella. bahah!

How pretentious!

Honestly, who on earth can resist the array of gifts displayed any way? The game is that simple and cheap that we were literally a laughing stock to many people.

I mean cute dolls. And all for RM1 or just a little more?

And then came this self proclaimed 'reigning champion of 2008". He of course adjusted our system to make things easier for him. I can't believe that the committees were even thought into giving in. Man, were we all wrecked!

BUT! all is not lost. Till I found the cutest guy ever in school.

SEE?!! SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man! I want to cuddle him all night long!

The snoopy was the grand prize of the event and it is simply irresistible. Soon to be ended up into the hand of who I can summarize with in one picture.

On a desperate attempt to get back our snoopy. We sort of failed.

See how much sorrow has it caused us?

Skipping on, who would have guessed. It was Pn. Thye's birthday! The entire 6A5, 6B5 and the accounting club of 2009 gathered together to celebrate of what I hope, another year of wisdom in her life.

Then comes confession time starting with Boon Tiong revealing the deepest secret in his heart about his discontentment with her toutures. lol (kidding)

In a nut shell, the pictures sum the whole story

That's right. Tomorrow is a freaking school day!

while the night is still young, we were wild!

31st August 2009, House Warming

First off. God has blessed me with such awesome friends that I would never trade anything else in the world for. Thank you so much Amy, Cheng Yee , Lay Kuen, Poh Ching, Sallyn, and Siau Ying for the beautiful card and the gift.To those who attended for the special occasion, I hoped that you had a enjoyable time. I know I wasn't that much of a host when I started running up and down, in and out from the house, trying to keep everyone company. There were too many people that I had to handle at once and it wasn't easy. Yet, I really did enjoy your presence and I hope in the same, you do too. =)

Group shot! =D (ps. I have done plenty of colour filter with this shot to enchance the colour)

1st August 2009 , Sangeetha's Farewell Party

Congratulations Sangeetha with your dreams to do Medicine in Bali! We are honoured that you even chose to invite us to your lovely party and to meet up many others of our ex-mgsians that we have already lost contact with. Of couse, we all went photo frenzy because you were quite occupied to even layan us. lol

This is yet one of the funniest shot I have taken in a long time. Tian Qiong why were you so impatient when I was taking the photo? lol.

The food was sure satisfying. We declare that we love the kumar puthumayam at that night =D

Sangeetha is the prettiest one in the photo. Can you spot which one is she? I'll help you out, she isn't the one at the most left corner. hehe

I never knew that 'dancing' runs in every Indian blood. My gwrash, the way they move. I was quite the spoilt sport to join in with the dance because it seems to me that there isn't much of the trace of the 'blood' in me. lol. Eventually my friends persuaded me to join in. It was a total shocker, I have never, NEVER in my life ever got jiggy with both girls and guys. It was.. erm.. interesting? Shieh Ren sure stole the lime light with her flexibility in dancing. She sure put me to shame. kidding. lol

A highschool musical shot? lol. This is only shot that was successful.

The rest were pretty much like this. =P

All and all. We will miss you Sangeetha. My prayer to you is that God shall continue to pour his favour and blessings unto you in wisdom, strength and health as you depart from Malaysia to pursue your studies. Do keep us in memory. =D

Note : For those who wants to get the photo for the farewell party. You may obtain it so by the clicking in the links provided below. I have spent countless of hours just uploading the files just for you girls sake. (remember to kiss me the next time you see me, I need one! lol)

faith in God

2009-07-31T15:54:00.003+08:00

I have been planting the seed of God's promises into my heart, more and more daily.
When I am driving, I fill my ears with Ps. Joseph Prince's sermons.
While I have time to spare, I eat down Ps.Joel Osteen's book, Live Your Best Life Now wisdom of God's favour and love.
I reminisce back on what our senior pastor, Ps. Joshua Yee that is faithfully on fire to transform our lives through God's grace.
To my surprise, in the short period of the same week, there are a handful and even more of my friends that are coming to me, sharing their problem.

Problems like,

"I don't think I can make it with my studies.
I am always like this, nothing is going to change.
I lack faith in myself. Besides, why should God bless me?
Everyone is not right. So am I. "

I thank God that He has filled me with the precise message to give back in return.

To experience God's fullness from every aspect in life. Let it be health, wisdom, restoration in relationships, a burdened-free heart, love and you name it. It is all just lying right in God's hands. Do you believe that you will receive all of this tremendous blessings in your own hands too? For the bible stated,

"All things are possible to Him who believes" Mark 9 :23

Are you set to put your faith in God to believe? How do we even get our faith in God when everything seem so wrong? But I am so depressed, sad and unwilling to be blessed. Doesn't seem fair if I don't do anything and expect God to bless me just like that.

Hey! That's the whole point! God simple wants to bless you despite of your weaknesses! Only He can change your weaknesses into your strength that his glory shines in you forever more. God isn't waiting for the day you are finally perfect to release his favour upon you. The time is now to be living in God's grace.

God makes the average into the best! Think about it. David was nothing but an average shepherd. He was in favour with God to bless him despite of who he was and he was the man after God's heart. It pleases God to see how much faith of David was in Him when he was still in his youth. Guess what? God made him king!

Wait, wait, wait! Some might say. I have already sinned. Why should I even expect God to forgive me. Friends, your sins have been long forgiven already on the cross that Christ had to died for you. Then the Lord too said that "Your sins I remember no more"! You are given a fresh new start every single time.

Stop wandering in the shadow of doubt and start living with the eyes of faith in your life. Sow the seed of positivity in your heart and you will reap the abundance of God's joy in your heart. Don't sow the seed of negativity of doubts that will rob you from your true blessings. Be God concious, cast out all those negativity that simply draines your strength and your mind and cast it upon to the Lord to care for. Nothing is too big for God to handle. The simple step of faith is what that will bring you into the God's favourable blessings.

God promised in His own words that He will never forsake you! So if you are in need, God is there! Do you see what a loving father he is?

The answer to the problem is from you yourself. Do you start off your day with a positive mind?

All along I know how to, all the exception that I barely apply it to my life. Though the messages from these 3 wonderful man of God, surely I confident to share and to get my life favoured in God's loving mercy.

Part of me have been transformed once more into a mature mentality to prosper in God's blessing.
Constantly, God is molding me into a better person as I put my faith that He is changing my life so that I may have the best! How great can that get??

Life couldn't get better than loving the Lord =D

dead good mood

2009-07-26T19:07:00.002+08:00

I don't know why.. and how. But I'm in a dead good mood to cook lately.
For this week I shall solely have my own home cooked food eaten at school.
Each day compromises on:

Monday : Mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy
Tuesday : Udon noodles with miso soup
Wednesday : Fire blazed cheesed, pan fried hot dog
Thursday : French toast and cheese
Friday : Sushi (perhaps) or cherries

The urgency to cook is unexplainable.
Or perhaps this shall be a teaser to those who questioned my future marriage in my cbox. lol

paired for life?

2009-07-24T19:57:00.006+08:00

My mind was stirred by what Pn.Nita just had to lecture to a fellow CU member today when he raised up questions about owning a girlfriend. Then she just have to quote

"Ack! There's no such thing as a girlfriend! You can only have a wife for life!"

Hrmm.. goes to say that we have one shot right?
I am guessing my potential husband lies somewhere out there?
Pfft.. I'm just saying =P
Man, I'm getting old.

G-O-D is L-O-V-E

2009-07-24T16:06:00.006+08:00

Here's one of my other post where I am uploading another freebies for those who reads my blog.
Today particularly is special because I'm so in love all over again when it comes to Christian musics.
You proclaim God's blessing as you sing along with the lyrics.
It never tires me to know how much God loves me and to love him back is simply indescribable.
Nothing can compare to the Father's arm of embrace.
How simple it is to cast my troubles into the Lord to bear.
For he had paid the price of ransom on that very cross.
He reigns evermore victories.
So that my worries I carry no more, my pain I feel no more, my burden I carry no more.
God turns my weaknesses into my strength.
I fear not. My salvation is secured by His love. =)

Isaiah 54:10
For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake. But My loving kindness will not be removed from you, and My covenant of peace will not be shaken, Says the LORD who has compassion on you.

breaks

2009-07-17T16:54:00.005+08:00

Dad : Carol I heard that your car breaks aren't working.
Me : Uh-huh. Ya mom told me.
Dad : Don't tell me that you have been driving like that whole time?
Me : .. I don't know..
Dad : It is your car. How can you not know??
Me : I don't use the breaks.
Dad : ...

I was literally digging my own grave with my own car.

fu-waah!

2009-07-15T22:05:00.008+08:00

I was so dumbstruck by the way Shieh Ren danced last Wednesday during her 'Legacy' performance at HICT Klang. She knows how to move, but all I know is to DDR. LOL.

Words ain't good enough to justify how well she did during that evening. Watch it for yourself!

Another entertaining performance from the contestants.

The best part is when her friend quoted :

"Wahh! Shieh Ren! Third place among the 3 dance group. Not bad, not bad."

haha!

Chia Yee and Shieh Ren, I've editted the photo and added some colour filters to it. I love this shot. =)

not fit for English?

2009-07-13T14:06:00.005+08:00

I feel so demoted after receiving my MUET result today.

My will to speak English almost sank sub zero.
All except, I can't even speak fluent Mandarin nor Hokkien.
I don't even want to surrender speaking BM for the rest of my life.
So that leads me back to square one.
To speak the only language that I know. EngRish. Bahh!

Stupid grades.

Anchored down by my essay just because I wasn't all convienced that the question I read isn't at once tincy bit on Global Warming! GAHHH!

To be precise, I am just not fit for journalism!

sleepless heart aches

2009-07-12T20:30:00.003+08:00

My world was spiralling into a pool of sorrow.
Heart ached and tired. Unable to enjoy the pleasure of senses.
Both my mind and my body was not in sync.

I was warned before by my father to "Never trust anyone completely".
How foolish. I should have known better.
No more. I stand strong now.
Loving myself couldn't be anymore better than this.
Having God to love me is more than sufficient.
I am secured and protected under His wings.
In him my trust couldn't be anymore guaranteed.
The centre of my life lies in the Lord.
That is how it should be.

The only reason to love is He first loved me. I'm contented. =)

hurt

2009-07-12T00:16:00.004+08:00

The truth couldn't hurt me more.
I was blinded by my own foolishness. I have almost cost myself a sentence of life's loneliness.
Numb to even understand the heart of others but just to know the precision of crushing it.

I gave myself a nasty laugh looking back at my handwritten work of a short summary of the things I liked about myself. There's so much that I dislike to cover up with. So this is what is like, being brought up destructively. I never thought I could hate myself even more than this. How foolish. I dare not venture into the comfort of many anymore.

I had my chance and I choose not to.. till I am ready once more.

I am desperate to escape. Yet I am not capable to..

I don't want to be hurt.. not anymore. I had enough. I am committing my life completely to the Lord where my comfort and peace lies in his open arm of embrace which I had refused to accept.

For those who couldn't seem to find their liking in me. I'm sorry to say but I really hate you for doing so. You have no rights to bring me down any lower than my state right now. Spare me time to find forgiveness in you. It's a sacrifice of praise that I need. Everything would be alright by then.

shattered

2009-07-11T22:33:00.004+08:00

I couldn't remember the last time my heart sank rock bottom.

Ignorance is not by nature but as a choice. I chose to be ignorant. The path that I chose was a heavy price to pay. Yet, I travel down this path so many times without having my lesson learnt not to. Afflicting the people that matters most to me. Having thrown into the same dungeon of guilt.. never being able to forgive myself once more.

Succumbed by fear of what's more for me to bear. Afraid of living a life of rejections.

I'm shattered from life's reality.

sick day

2009-07-09T13:02:00.005+08:00

Perhaps this will explain a whole lot why I ain't at school today. >=D

ps. it really really works! haha

Dead Good!

2009-06-19T13:28:00.012+08:00

Monday, 15th June
First day of second semester and I hibernated all the way till 6.30 am! I stepped on the paddle so hard that my car literally flew over to STK. I was a joke for not being anywhere late! Had all our mid-term paper returned. Pn.Tan handed my papers back with a discontented look. Worst luck!

Tuesday, 16th June
Mom called me a wuss for having fair skin and soft pampered hands before I headed out for my P.A tuition. Forced to write an essay. Worst luck!
Read The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13¾ by Sue Townsend. It was dead funny!

Wednesday, 17th June
It is the start of the Orientation Week between the seniors and Jrs. Absolutely every Upper 6 (senior) kids is in high spirits. The Jr.'s are coming in. It's the candy that the are after (the senior of course). Crossed my fingers real hard. Hoping, that my foster kid is all imaginary. Sallyn, Siau Ying and Poh Ching immediately got busy helping the younger kids to get as many signatures as possible. Dang it! My imaginary foster kid turned up after all. Foster kid had spots all over. I knew what it was and crossed my fingers even harder.

Thursday, 18th June
Wippie! 9 registered themselves to be committed to CU! Another day with the foster kid for all the seniors. Foster kid aka. Budak Kecil was quarantined for having the poxes! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Had ample time to finish up the book.

Friday, 19th June
Everyone escaped from class to the school hall with a little help from the mte's. Foster kid is still missing. Sweet! Sallyn foster kid confessed his love by shoving to her a box of chocolate and some lusty note to go with it. The younger kids sure are entertaining.
We had a real good time hollering at the top of our lungs. Everybody had a real good time. In fact, it seems to me that this year's Orientation Week was beyond what last year's Pun Hui and gang did. I think that it was a prodigious effort. Everyone had a great time.
The younger kids hollered that they loved us. We tried hollering back that we love them as well. Except me, I was thirsty.
Continued reading with The True Confessions of Adrian Albert Mole by Sue Townsend. Still dead funny!

NEW MOON!

2009-06-13T17:17:00.002+08:00

ROFL!!

Cool guys don't look at explosions

2009-06-12T21:16:00.005+08:00

It's so true! lol

Bahhh...

2009-06-10T21:36:00.006+08:00

I'm just itching to update the blog.. sadly I don't have anything to really yack about.

Anyway, just something for you to kill the holidays with. I've uploaded Ne-Yo's lastest track Part Of The List just for you bunch of leech suckers. lol

Download : Ne-Yo - Part of the list (radio)-whoa

It's amazing! =)

Irrelevant post (seriously)

2009-06-05T23:58:00.013+08:00

Sallyn : Eh, Carol. Update you blog la *pester*. I'm so tired of reading the plush toy post.

First off, I hadn't had much time to update on the blog. I lacked of internet since I am officially an Aman Perdana resident only last week itself. So, I've been tied up with the shifting our personal stuff from the old to the new house. Boy,It was tiring!

Instead of having less than 5 minutes to school. I've to add another 10 minutes now to travel to school. With traffic, add 20 minutes. Dreadful!

Owh, by the way. Terminator Salvation is pretty awesome. Make sure you catch it alright =D

Of course, be thankful that you weren't in the same cinema with me and my friends. We practically cracking up jokes and laughed throughout the entire show while the other audience are solemnly serious.

This time I'm taking the wheels while Sallyn is in control with my camera phone.

Traffic police also she so shock took a picture of him.

Want to know what's funny about the following shots? There is actually 3 of us in the car. One is just a spoilt sport. lol

See what I mean?

Dear muffins at her front gate.

Sallyn : Owh owh! Traffic police 2#!! *snaps*

Me : *sweat*

I have no control of what wacky Sal is doing with my phone. My hands are glued to the steering wheels. Sallyn on the other hand was so proud with her photograpic skills with my camera phone. What do you think? =)

That's Klang Highschool by the way.

I tells ya. I don't get how Emo-Sal turn to Shiok Sendiri-Sal. Just look at her! lol (I was busy keeping my eyes on the road =P)

LOL! so cute..

I sort of like this one.

Ack. You know what? Every single vehicle that passed by my car just couldn't resist to look what we sampat kids are doing.

My tiny hands and Sallyn's manly hands.

Half eaten dried fig.

haha!

Owh, by the way. Happy birthday ko!

'Plush toy' won!

2009-05-22T17:50:00.013+08:00

It's inevitable. Plush toy plushed away the American Idol title for season 8 year 2009.

I am pretty much out of topic to blog out since I'm under the exam fever. So American Idol will have to do, lol. I will admit that it has been a spectacular season this year with a wide range of talents. It didn't really surprised me that Adam the gay-ish Lambert didn't wipe away the title. Yet, it was plush toy that really had me there. Never actually see that coming.

Whatever. He won. So what? Taylor Hicks won too you know? (What on earth?!)

Hey, I bet it must be pretty hard for America when it comes to voting their final Idol the night before.

Let me point out the dilemma they are facing.

1. Kris Allen... He's married. Man!

2. Adam Lambert... He's gay isn't he? Darn it!
[Ok tell you what, boo-hoo. Adam isn't gay. He's just a gay-ish guy who like tight pants that helps him to hit those high vocals.]

Kara on the other hand is one of the most upsetting woman on earth to be watched. This pictures tells everything, besides the fact that she sucks at maths. lol

Anyway, I had my own opinion on how it should have ended yesterday night when the results were announced. So I'll let my eddited photo work tell the story. xD

my 'labour day'

2009-05-02T18:04:00.018+08:00

I really enjoyed my labour day holiday yesterday. It was during the last minute.. as in Linda, Sallyn and I came into agreement that we would watch X-men Origins : Wolverine at Bukit Tinggi Jusco at precisely 1 am in the morning. So please do not debate in my cbox why hadn't I invited anyone besides those two over movie.

Anyway, Sallyn was urging that she wanted to drive me because she feels that my good deeds towards her should be rewarded. lol. I was complaining to Sallyn as we were arriving to Jusco Bkt Tinggi about the number of cars with their P stickers on, indicating that they are all kids. Soon after I pointed at Sallyn's P too and proclaimed that we are just as bad as they are, because we are one of them as well. Man!

I was actually worried at first that we wouldn't be able to get tickets for the movie. Judging that it is newly released and having to watch it on a public holiday should never be a wise choice. Eventually, God blessed us with good seats. =)

I have a few words to conclude the movie and.. yes I would not spare any spoilers ahead.

1. Wolverine loves to scream.

2. I know not many people would credit these characters but they are pretty much unique in their own ways. Not to mention, they are quite a hottie themselves. lol

Zero

Wade

3. What on earth is he doing in the movie?!

Will.I.Am (NO, he is not under the hottie category!)

4. My sexiest characters

Wolverine!

Gambit!

5. Just to let you guys know.. there is a very special scene that you should look out for. I'll give you a heads up. It has something to do with waterfalls and the field. *hint* *hint*

Right after the movie, Linda was so eager to have our pictures taken together. I don't get why kids love taking pictures in the toilet and Linda insisted that we have it taken there. Unfortunately, there are too many people walking in and out of the toilet. There's when Linda suggested that we have our pictures taken in the Mother's Nursing Room. She claims that she had taken many pictures there before and I don't know why on earth did we agree willingly.

We entered into the forbidden room where we assumed people barely enters. Man, the green sofas that they had in the individual rooms were so tempting. So all three of us immediately sat down and started snapping away when suddenly there was people entering the toilet! OMG!

Me: Hey, quick someone close the curtains properly!

Sallyn, Me and Linda : .....

Stranger 1 : Eh, lai lai lai

Kids running across the room

Linda and Sallyn : Oh my gwrash!!!

Me : Whose idea was it to take pictures here again???

Kid 1 : Mummy?! MUMMY????!

The three of us staring at the curtains helplessly

Kid 1: Mummy? *opens the curtain*

Momentarily, the three of us stared at the little girl and she did the same. Except she gasped immediately closed the curtain and ran away.

Me : OH MY GWRASH! She made it looked as if the 3 of us are L's man!!

We all had to endure the torture of being stuck in the room for a couple of minutes because another parent entered the room and again with another kid.

Kid 2: Mummy??? Mummy???? *opens the curtains*

Me, Linda and Sallyn : Waved our hands and shook our heads.

Kid 2: *stares blankly and closed the curtains*

Me : Man! Not another one! LOL

Note: I'll post up the pictures... right after Linda hands them over to me. haha

Eventually, we escaped from the horror of having anymore kids assuming that we were Ls or something and had a piece of memory that we doubt we will ever forget. I sworn that I shall never enter that room for any picture taking ever again. LOL

It had been a pretty hectic day. Soon after I adjourned for another journey to Kuala Selangor to witness and experience to the Firefly Lake with my brother and his company of friends. My lil sis was a little uncooperative at first when it comes to taking pictures together. Who is she to blame? I suck at it! lol

We don't look anything a like now don't we?

Esther : *thinking* Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Man, my sister is annoying. Quit snapping me already! Ish!

Finally! We sampai Kuala Selangor at what I claim the most perfect timing. The sunset!

My brother and I. A very badly taken shot from me. =P

We all decided to skip dinner since the restaurant is packed and it takes 2 hrs for the food to arrive and head over to Firefly park instead. We had to wait for 1 1/2 hr just to get to our ride because there were so many people. Duhhh- it is the public holiday after all.

I will only say this once, blinking Christmas led lights! That's all there is.

Then comes dinner/supper.

See what a glutton am I? I forgotten to snap the mountain of food that we had. =P

Overall, my brother is weird and I had a fantastic day. =D

Babeeeh!

2009-05-01T00:21:00.003+08:00

Right, I know my sister would be pretty much pissed off if I gave away too much info. So.. I resolve by putting up a picture that is not as flattering (yet still very much adorable) and I just want to welcome Alex into the doom of being my blog subject. lol

Nick : Alex
Age : pretty young and fresh
Gender : A baby boy
D.O.B : 22nd April 2009

Note : Crap. That makes me an aunt. =P

A-PAH!

2009-04-21T18:35:00.008+08:00

Everyone feast your eyes on perhaps one of my yet another best post that I ever had on this blog. I present to you a father that I never knew of.. Apah!

A brief summary for you. There has been an extra stock of an economic book last year (2008) that was offered free. Thing is, you need to request by sending in a form. Early this year, I received two fine letter from my "father". Kononnya la.

I feel that he narates way better than I do. lol

Apah's sample of his love. lol

People of the earth. I present to you....
LOL!

ps. I apologise for not replying in my cbox. I'll get back at you when I have more time to spare alright. =)

Dad and my night drive

2009-04-17T22:39:00.002+08:00

Alright I just got back from driving my family back from Subang Jaya back to Klang. This time I'm taking the wheels with the Volvo while my dad is my front passanger. Man, I bet he had a cross of several emotion stirred up in him. Plainly he was just mad and pretty much freaked out from his shoes a couple of time.

As I remembered, he kept on chanting.. pretty loudly
" CAROL! CURVE! GOT CURVE CAROL! SLOWW DOWN!! YOU'RE GOING TOO FAST!!"

"CAROL TURN RIGHT!! TURN RIGHT!!! NOW!!! HAIYERR! TURRRN RIGHT!!"

"EHH U-TURN! PLE-ASSE U-TURN"
"
SLOW-SLOW-SLOW-SLOWW!"

I mean.. I never knew what a develish driver I really am until he pointed it out. Still enough we are all in one piece after all since I am still able to blog. LOL.

Anyway, it seems to me long distant driving is proven difficult.. only when it comes to smart tag. I held the smart tag backwards for the past 2 tolls. Man, that was embarassing.

Under neglect

2009-03-29T23:50:00.002+08:00

Everything is under neglect. My blog, my homework, my clothes, my everything!

A brief of what has been happening to me this weekend.

Not only the rain poured so heavily last Friday, my house is taking a swim as well. Look! the frying pan is actually floating!

Eww! Hoggible water. I don't want to make up of what's in it.. judging that it is coming from the drain and God knows what other sources of minerals it contains.

This is why we have to shift soon. Living right next to Klang river is never a wise choice. The flower pots are submerged in the flood water while the divider is almost close to nothing.

See what I meant by 'drain' water?

Unfortunately... or fortunately for us. There was just little damage due to the flash flood.

And the following day, this fellow bugger just had to be all ill tempered and over heat overtime while we were all on our way to our grandparents cemetery. I mean, it was pretty much freaky when the smoke is fuming out from the bonnet.

We were sooo bored just having to waste the afternoon away because of this. No thanks to Sallyn who actually saw us and not offering any help. Chiuh!

That's that.

Bday update

2009-03-18T00:59:00.007+08:00

I almost cost Sallyn's life and Amy's sanity for not updating on this. LOL

I was so caught by surprise when my friends paraded with a tiramisu cake and 4 muffins on my birthday right after the CU meeting ended. Sallyn was the fun to watch when she tried her best to distract my curiousity to her lil nervous hopping up and down act while the others were by the stairs and sang me a lovely birthday song . In case you people are wondering about the cake and 4 muffins let me answer you first. No, they are not symbolic in any sort. LOL

There is a Chinese taboo when it comes to blowing the candle more than once. Those geniuses bought me those candle that can rekindle itself. I thought that I lost part of my candle blowing expertise. And having to blow several times till my lungs almost ran dry. I felt part of my youth departed from me. Grh!

All and all it was all wonderful. I love every second that my friends put into effort to make my day.. MY DAY. I bet the entire f6 block was pretty much intimidated when we all laughed hysterically over pratically everything.

Presenting Amy! My mama thongs.

Sallyn! My hunny bunch.

Candy cane! Siau Ying!

And of couse, beloved sweety pie. Poh Ching!

I don't get this shot. LOL.

Amy's present in particular represents the certificate to womanhood. I'll let you guys take a guess. Since pretty much I can't upload the picture due to a the fear of a certain individual.. a small creature that's living under the same roof who's not riped enough to see it. LOL

Sallyn made me do some stupid 'exercises' in order to find the hidden gift that was right in my car. I'll list out what she made me do:

1. eat the muffins

2. count to 13

3. get the dog to bark 13 times

4. swing the garden swing for 13 times with an umbrella (like some dungu)

and other non-sense I couldn't recall.

The best part is that the price tag was still attached to the gift! LOL!

Thank you so much! You girls are simply the best gift of all. =)

What a Fabulous-tic day!

2009-03-13T23:19:00.003+08:00

Brief update for today.

I really appreciate everyone who made my day an absolute fabulous-tic day.
I simply couldn't resist to just keep on smiling all day long and I treasure everything that you have done for me.
I LOVE YOU ALL!

=D

[more updates tomorrow, or so I hope]

Jason Mraz super hwat!

2009-03-06T19:30:00.013+08:00

Yeah I know I am rather late with the update about the concert. Been real busy lately with school work and I stupidly went to school the day after the concert zombie-fied.

Anyway, that isn't the point. Being selfish for not sharing my night of heaven. I am now ready to share out my happiness with the entire world. To cut short from the journey over to Stadium Negara, Kuala Lumpur.
1. left the house by 5 pm
2. reached the stadium about 6.30 pm
3. the stadium is already packed!

My sister, Jamie was in a disbelieve just to see with her own two puny eyes that the stadium was already pouring with many many of Jason's adoring fans. Humbly waiting for him since 4 pm and praising his career all the way. If you thought that I am his craziest fan, you ain't see no crazy yet.

I barely know about Jason's life nor either of his band member's name or what other achievement that they had though out the years and whatsoever. And just to wait in the sweaty and heat of the presence of the other fans who can go on yakking away about Jason as if they've known him all their life. Of course, I was slightly intimidated, frightened and sort of embarrassed for not knowing much. But honestly I couldn't care less. I hate getting personal with any of my idol's life because it can damages all my fantasies. I was just all ready to be charmed for the night.

So I got into the stadium, finally. Quickly sneaking in the camera and avoiding most of the security over there. Come on! Pictures are real important ok! Eventually we found a resonable and some what 'good' spot from the rock zone standing and not until this joker appeared out of no where right in front of me. I was real mad knowingly that he wasn't even there in the first place.

Therefore I took every oppurtunity just to whack that idiot up from blocking my precious view from Jason Mraz. I smack him with my foldable fan, kick leg, you name it. I did it all. >=)

Yeah, it seems to me that Jason wasn't all that punctual. It is already 8.20 pm and yet no sign of beloved Jason. I was at the verge of crying. It made me wonder if everything was just a scam.

-Lights went out-

Crowd : WOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

-Jason Mraz appears from the curtains-

Jason Mraz : Hello KUALA LUUUUUMMMPUUUURRR!!!

Crowd : AHHHHHHH!!!!!! JASOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!!

Know what was my first response when it comes to seeing Jason on stage?

Me : OH MY GWASH!! HE DIDN'T SHAVE!!!!!!!!!

Well, from the very beginning there's nothing much to expect from where I was standing. I could only catch a few glimpse on Jason and mostly this sort of things happened while I was struggling to see past the crowd, I tried at the very least.

Though it all. With God's favour, those mean tallies eventually shove away to the other side and wehett! JASON!!!

I'll say this once, Jason is pretty scrawny isn't he? Who cares?! Well I don't. It is his talent that won me over in the first place. He got me all wild when he sang back his hits like The Remedy, You and I, Sleeping To Dream About You, Geek In The Pink, There's No Stopping Us, I'm Yours and many other wonderful songs that I can go screaming on like any lil girl would. I literally forgot about all the humidity of the room that's poorly ventilated nor the other sweaty crowds that are pushing their way to get in front of me. I was all mesmerized. Love it!

Yeah go on babe! I HEART YOU TOO for coming down to Malaysia.

It was overall a fun experience and something that I was grateful to be a part of the fantastic night. Now my dream of being in Jason's concert is being fulfilled.. what do I do now?

Perhaps the next agenda on my list is to shake his hands! =D

PS. I shall accept NO criticism on my amateurish photography skill. Gimme a break won't you? lol

ONE!!!

2009-03-03T00:11:00.002+08:00

One, one, one, one, 1 MORE DAY!!

This is the crucial moment to double check, make it a triple check up on what that is needed be packed on my night of paradise.

1. lip stick (super red and luscious)
2. perfume (especially the one Jason likes, make it 4 bottles)
3. the all to know about Jason's life dummy guide
4. some fancy lacy underwear (just to make sure Jason keep a piece of me with him, lol)
5. Jason's favourite snack or drink (oh, just to lure Jason nearer so that I can fully utilise the lip stick)
6. a marker pen with lots of my kisses on it (so Jason Mraz is able to feel the love when he autographs the album)
7. a heart shaped notebook (oh just in case he decided to leave a contact or two for me to successfully stalk him)
8. my skills of smooching and huggling dear ol' Jason. (so it is done!)
9. camera with unlimited memory space (for me and Mraz to snap away the entire night, wohoot!)
10. MY TICKETS!!!

Haha, alright. I just like to crack up dumb jokes that I don't mean. =P

But you all simply got to have to download this version of "I'm Yours" by Mraz though I know that most of you are at your puking point when the song appears on the radio most of the time. It is soo overplayed. Someone need to slap the DJ's some time man.

2 days 2 much!

2009-03-02T11:10:00.002+08:00

2009-03-01T15:20:00.003+08:00

Just 3 more days Jason!

Download : Jason Mraz - Too Much Food.mp3

Note : It seems to me there have been a few spying on my blog. (Not that there is much of a problem, it just give me the creeps when someone randomly comes up to me and goes "Hey! READ your blog") Therefore, I'm considering of putting my blog as private. Perhaps not, but no surprises if I did.

F-O-U-R what's that spell? FOUR!!

2009-02-28T09:42:00.005+08:00

It seemed like a real joke to me when I was browsing thru my mail and found out that I've just won the consolation prize from the Channel [V] contest on astro. Another 2x rock zone, free standing tickets!

What on earth? I wanted the pitt zone and greet prize!! (haha)

Of course, I've never expected to actually win something from the contest. I just put my random 'luck' to the test and ask God to just let me at least get something out of the contest. See? Free tickets!

This isn't really the important issue here. Even Samzz from my cbox is already in advance way before me. lol

4 MORE DAYS!! =D

I simply love how purrty my morning has been when my sister flashed the startwo (click it!)front page today. What's more I've a couple of my friends at school to give me a countdown to my utopia. Yes, say it out loud and proud because I am! 5 MORE DAYS LEFT!!!!

Enjoy! (because I sure did! lol)

8-1 = 7 more days! | urgh!

2009-02-25T14:10:00.008+08:00

It's all the matter of maths! We have now just a matter of 7 more days! Woot!

Each day is just another step closer to my beloved songbird.

Though Jason hasn't been making an official album since year 2002 - Waiting for my rocket to come. He again proved why he remains as every one's favourite with his album Mr.A-Z in the year 2005.

I thought it was pretty clever that the title of the album spells out so clearly about Jason [MRAZ]. =)

Here's yet another personal favourite:

Download : Jason Mraz - Wordplay.mp3

Note 1 (unrelated) : I am dissatisfied with my performance with the performance test that were given so far. By far it is really embarrassing actually. I am making a promise to myself to never ever let my marks to slip off again! urgh! (note: I am going to cut down on blogging.. just right after the concert at least )

Note 2 (also unrelated) : Why am I being push around and bullied by my teachers these past few days?! urgh! The con of having to sit in front of the class. x(
