Updates Part 2

2007-09-28T02:16:00.000+08:00

This is the second most boring post in my entire blog history i guess.
The fact is, i'm typing this just to update my blog, have fun :)

Let's recap, from my second last post, i said that i'm going to get that new lens, so yea i've got it after my exams.So...? nah nothing..
Weird enough, i purchased another one this morning, since the deal came close to what i wanted. hmm..just to try it out. 70-300mm, it's not really expensive. I don't expect fantastic results with it either. Hopefully it arrives by Saturday.So till then...Exams are coming and i hate them..X(

Updates..

2007-09-26T22:43:00.000+08:00

There's nothing much to blog about since life is mundane.Thank you for checking my blog out.It's still alive....finally...
Exams are coming very soon and i've still yet to drag myself to turn the pages.More so when i don't even understand what i've been studying for nearly the whole semester.I'm just so dead...

New lens = New Toy

2007-05-21T12:39:00.000+08:00

Nah, i wouldn't say it's really a new toy. By the way, guess so, i can't remember myself spending hundred on a toy when i was a kid.I guess the most expensive useless toy i've ever bought is a Tamiya scale modelling tank or truck for more than Rm200+ each..Plus it's been more than 8 years and it's still lying around in the cupboard uncompleted.. Thinking about it makes me wanna knock my head against the wall...~KOK KOK KOK~3 times.. I've just bought the cheapest lens in Nikon's lineup after spending a night thinking about it.. Third feeling the adrenaline rush while paying. First was carrying a huge amount of cash to purchase the camera itself while riding a bike all the way from Melaka to pudu plaza.. Crazy things people will do..Won't ever think of such thing in my life ever again..By the way, the adrenaline rush was just exaggeration.

Nonetheless there is this weird feeling when parting with your cash, before you know it, it's gone in a few seconds and you start to ponder if it's really worth it.. Ha.. The lens that need no introduction is the 'quite good for it's price' 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor. It's like one of the basic needs, something like if u own computer, you'll buy an extra DVD burner eventhought u have a CD burner. Oops..Sounds wrong..Got a good bargain for it. So when i came home, i tried it spontaneously. Results? Look below. Nice... Anyway, it's good for me.. Coming up next.. The Tamron AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR Di II LD Aspherical [IF] soon after my exams....

Shower me with lenses please..(click photo for enlargement)

Shutter:1/500
Aperture:f4.5
Focal Length:50mm
Flash:Fill flash BL
Metering: Centre Weighted Average.

Kim Gary

2007-05-21T00:51:00.000+08:00

Today has been such a dull day, there isn't anything exciting to blog about nowadays.For some reason i don't know, maybe because lately i've beena bit weary of putting my thoughts here, because some people would read it and judge that you are shallow.So blogs are suppose to be souped up with fantastic facts, figures or well thought reflection of life? Nah who cares if it's an intellectual blog or a bimbotic blog? If that's the case, so what if it's bimbotic not that people are gonna stop reading it right? So just keep quiet and move on with life.

Okay, so lately i don't have the urge to eat or either go out for dinner except for what happened today.I was lazing around in front of my pc until my parents came knocking on my room door, asking me to join them for dinner. Due to my laziness, as usual during exam week , i don't really have the slightest excitement about leaving home at all. But something caught my attention, when i surfed Hua Ying's blog. There was a post saying Kim Gary in Melaka... Suddenly the thought of savoury cheese baked rice came across my mind.I couldn't resist it..goodness, so straight away i sent her an sms asking her where's that place. A few minutes past and i could resist it anymore, called her on my mobile but to no avail. At that instance, i started to google kim gary malacca with utter excitement that cheese baked rice is finally in Malacca. Behold, i couldn't find any post about it.

I started messaging malaccan friends on msn. Until i smsed shirlyn, knowing that she's pretty happening lately, so i guessed that she should know if it's really in Malacca. She said, yea it's in Dataran Pahlawan.Fuh.. at that instance i raced downstairs asking my parents to go for dinner at Kim Gary's. Hahaa..

Then it's all happy until..Hua Ying messaged while we're on our way to Kim Gary. She said, er it's in Dataran Pahlawan opposite starbucks.. But wait, that's not it... she said, it's not Kim Gary but a Hong Kong restaurant like Kim Gary.Surprised i messaged her asking why did u post Kim Gary..She said, dunno what name it's a metaphor..I nearly died at that instance.Since we're on our way..No point turning back..So off we went to this place called De Fun Cafe or something..

The food there was utterly not really nice.No where near Kim Gary's. The waitress couldn't even differentiate the white sauce from the red sauce, because when my cheese rice came with white sauce, i asked her if this is the order.She keep insisting that this is red sauce, but definetly it's not. Long before another waiter came and say that it's wrong..Swt...

That's all for today, haven't been posting anything lately though.So happy reading. :)

Find Us Faithful

2007-04-19T03:02:00.000+08:00

It's been a long time since i last posted anything on my blog. :)
If it wasn't for the busy schedule, running from one place to another, it would have been updated long ago. Last Sunday, my friends and I were invited to perform a mime entitled Find Us Faithful at a local church. The song speaks about the legacy and heritage we leave behind for others who would follow and come behind us.The message that day from Ps. Goh was indeed really inspiring, the title of her sermon that blessed morning was Find Us Faithful.What's finding us faithful?

Many a times, we're like pilgrims on a journey of a narrow road. Living a life carrying this legacy isn't a straight broad path. Neither can we say it's absolutely hard, but we know that there is someone there guiding us nonetheless. There are moments when we go through hardships and joy. Wouldn't we feel something amiss if our lives are all full of hardships without joy or vice versa?

Let us leave to those who were behind us a heritage of faithfulness passed through Godly lives. The hardest challenge as Christians is to live a life of faithfulness. As many times we fail, we should always pick ourselves up again..

Find us Faithful by Steven Green
We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace

Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives

Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful

After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift though all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find

Here are some photos of our mime entitled Find Us Faithful.

Love one another.

2007-04-19T02:45:00.002+08:00

John 13:34-35
"A new command I give to you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."

The Bible teaches us that the God we believe in is a God of love.He loves those who belong to Him- He loves us, His children and He also loves those who are outside of His family.

It is easier to love and esteem one another as fellow believers in Christ Jesus. Now that we are in Christ we must view each other in the body of Christ as our brothers and sisters. Then loving one another becomes natural and easy. Loving our brothers and sisters in Christ should flow naturally, just like loving our blood brothers and sisters.

This love distinguishes us as followers of Christ(1 John 3:23). It is a self-giving and sacrificial love that seeks the good of another (1 John 4:9-10).Our relationship is characterised by a devoted concern that seeks to promote the highest good of our brothers and sisters in Christ.

It is important that we learn to extend our love beyond those whom we are comfortable with. Often times we find it hard to love, edify or encourage them. We find it hard to hold them in high esteem because they have faulted us. It is easier to ignore them even though we may not take revenge.

But Jesus says, "don't resist an evil person" (Matthew 5:39). What He means is that when we are wronged we are not to react with hatred, but in a way that shows we have values that are centred in Christ. To be more like Jesus means to love others as we love ourselves.

Romans 12:9-12
Love must be sincere.Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honour one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervour, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction , faithful in prayer.

Unity

2007-03-07T22:13:00.000+08:00

In the life and ministry of Jesus, He prayed many times for the needs of the people.He healed the sick, fed the poor and delivered those bound (eg. the prostitues, tax collectors, demonised, etc.) He commanded the storm to stop and fig tree to stop growing.He even raised the dead by the word of His mouth. He was so authoritative and powerful that nothing could withstand Him.In fact, Jesus didn't need to say long prayers to get things done.

There is, however, one occasion where He did say a long prayer - He prayed for His disciples then and now to be united.

John 17 :20-25
Jesus Prays for All Believers 20"My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: 23I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. 24"Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. 25"Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me.

What are the ways we can be one?
It's only through Christ. The unity that Jesus prayed for was not organisational unity but spiritual one based on Him (Christ) living in us.So long as we acknowledge Jesus as Lord and Savior, we are one.

John 1:12 says "Yet to all who received Him, to those who believe in His name, He gave the right to become children of God."

Because of Christ and in Him, we become God's children and therefore we are a family. Subsequently, we affirm that we are unified as one body in Christ.

The second mentioned of unity in this passage is found in verse 23. Jesus prayed that we may be brought to complete unity to let the world know that God indeed sent Christ..

What was the reason that Jesus prayed that we will be united as one?
The reason is that through unity in the church, the world may know Christ.As Jesus cannot be divided, so also the church cannot be divided. Division is a sickness of mankind.Resentment, hatred, killings and wars stem from division and mankind is sick of them. The world He lived was filled with divisions. Where can we find unity? Jesus says, only in His church and among His disciples.

John 13:34-35 says, " A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." Through a concious heart to love one another, the world will take notice of the church and be won over. Therefore, we should not act independently of one another and that in Christ we should have a mutual dependence on and submission to one another.

The third mention of unity in this passage is alluded in verse 26.
Jesus prayed that He had made God the Father known to us in order that God's love may be in us and that Christ may be in us.

Why is it important to emphasize on church unity?
The greatest thing Christ gave to His church is love.
Romans 5:5 says, "God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom He has given to us." The love God gave to us is so precious that it requitres Jesus to die in order that we may have it.However, just as it is given , it can also be snatched away - by the devil. Therefore, we must do our best to prevent this from happening. Not only in our lives, but also in the lives of others in church.

The love in us is the testimony that Christ lives in us. God and Christ have done their part by giving us this precious gift. We must do our part now. We should be reminded to be sensitive to yield our rights to one another, seeking the Lord's best (the love of God) for the body (forever).

I hope my sharing above will help each of us grow spiritually.
I will be able to share on other topics as the weeks progress, different core values that we should consider and not miss in our lives.

Information

Unhappiness in relationships, according to Dr. Gary Chapman, is often due to the fact that we speak different love languages. Sometimes we don't understand our partner's requirements, or even our own. We all have a "love tank" that needs to be filled in order for us to express love to others, but there are different means by which our tank can be filled, and there are different ways that we can express love to others.

Films

2007-01-13T00:25:00.000+08:00

I reloaded a new film into the mamiya not knowing that the metering has problem.. Actually, not working at all.....Hopefully can find another film body soon to use.

My yashica-635.Contemplating if i should send it for a major repair.Wonder if i will shoot 120mms.

Just some random shots of what i've been up to lately.

Culture and Religion

2007-01-12T04:35:00.000+08:00

Raised from a place full of religious and cultural influence. On one fine morning, i decided to take a walk on the streets alone. Wondering what i can capture. Looking back, it opened my eyes to the field.Who will go for my generation?How i wish one day, we would all see each other in paradise; leaving no one behind.We know that life on earth is not eternal, there's a place somewhere.But the question is where and how do we get there?

After Christmas

2007-01-01T15:51:00.000+08:00

It's been so many days after christmas and i haven't been updating my blog.Why you may ask?

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Two days away from christmas.

2006-12-23T04:02:00.000+08:00

It's only two days away from christmas.
How's preparations for christmas coming?
Hope that everything is okay.
It's hard for me.Maybe i'm not really in the mood for this season yet.I'm left with two days to turn things around.

A path so narrow and dimly lit.
Sometimes life isn't just a highway.

Christmas celebration

2006-12-20T21:57:00.000+08:00

It was a Sunday with slight drizzle...The christmas just around, and the christmas mood is already lighted.

There were lot's of fun filled, joy bringing activities.
Carolling around shops, free kids face paintings, baloons, dances and a cantata by fellow cfers.The cantata was really good.How i wish i could just dump the camera and join them but if i would to, there ain't going to be any nice photos of them; for them to remember right?I hope i won't miss them later.But i have to take photos for church.

So, presenting...a sneak overview of the event..

This is the only photo i have with my church carolling group.I took after a long long persuasion by this two ladies.They say i super poor thing because i don't have any photo of myself.

Christmas Celebration.

2006-12-18T00:42:00.000+08:00

We had a christmas celebration today in Dataran Pahlawan.
I really don't feel like posting anything today.
Pastor preached a very meaningful sermon yesterday too.I believe i was blessed by it.
He prayed for me and i felt God's presence.
I can't understand.Actually i don't, but i won't question.
I've played my part..Sometimes we pull the strings where life's like a stage.What happens next is beyond our own control, in that stage it isn't just me being there alone.

We do the casting, God will do the caring.

Quiz

2006-12-14T16:11:00.000+08:00

I had a maths quiz yesterday and today.I really did it well and i guess i'll be getting the full marks for both althought i didn't studied for them.There will be a paper tomorrow, and an assignment due.I think it's going to be a long night for me.Christmas dinner is also tomorrow, and Bless The City, a christmas celebration is going to be on sunday.I'll be joining the young adults for carolling and i'm looking forward to it.I'm a little discouraged but i know what's important.Cell group tonight will be as usual.It talks about the mindset and i believe this is a very powerful session.I pray that God will give me wisdom in preparing the materials for tonight.

H.U.G.E Camp

2006-12-14T00:45:00.000+08:00

I was at Huge camp just now, i miss huge camp.I still remember that during the first huge camp.My room was broken in by the same person three times.And that was crazy, i've got so much stories about how the theif came in and stole my friend's camera, watches and handphones.I thank God none of my valuables were inside.Anyway, the night session that i went to was good.Pastor Mike spoke about prayer and how we should pray for one another.The session ended with us praying for people who need healing. I won't be posting much today, i just don't feel like it now. I met pastor earlier today and he's been such a great encouragement.I know that nothing will go wrong when i seek counsel from my spiritual father.

Prayer can move mountains.

Kenneth, an old friend of mine.The person i grew up with serving in youth ministry and also the person i went with to the first HUGE camp.

With hands lifted high, i shall praise thee.

I can't stop dancing in your holy presence.

Take take take it all.

Before session starts.

I shall praise You all day, the cry of my heart is to give you praise.

H.U.G.E. crowd.

Christmas is coming

2006-12-13T01:00:00.000+08:00

I went to take a breather at portuguese settlement with a friend. The christmas mood is here, carols, lights, joy, people and Jesus.But one sad thing i see is that santa claus has taken away the real meaning of christmas.Every corner around portuguese settlement, i see santa claus.It's not about santa, it's about the birth of Christ.Chirstmas is coming, how i wish i could share christmas.Had a paper earlier, i won't want to comment on it here..wasn't happy with what i've done.I pray that God will guide me, i really want to know what i should do. Meeting is at 11am.I believe things will get better.Believe in yourself, because this life is your's to live.

Exams!

2006-12-12T18:31:00.000+08:00

Exams aren't meant to be easy;
I wonder;
I wonder;
I wonder; how is it going to be?
I wonder what do i wonder about?

I think i will join the HUGE camp night session later.I wil take some photos.Heard that the speaker is good and i really look forward to it.Will be going tomorrow night too.Exams preparation isn't really working out well.I hope i won't do very badly, as i want good grades this time around, i would be thankful if i obtain average marks this time. Missed class this morning, not something that i usally do.Lost that record of 100% attendance. I was just too tired yesterday...things are going to get better after tomorrow.I won't forget to praise God for everything He's given me.Lastly,I wonder if I ever get to read the princess's diary soon.

My first day.

2006-12-12T02:06:00.000+08:00

Came back from KL yesterday, it has been a great time. Thanks to great friends who took the trouble to take me around.I'm so grateful.I finish my lab report in the afternoon, it wasn't perfect, but i knew that's what i could produce in such short time.I had to redo my whole lab report due to some problems. There was suppose to be a mathematics qiz this evening but it turn out that the lecturer didn't have time to have it.So quizzes are rescheduled to wednesday and thursday.I really need God's grace.Wil be having mathematics midterm 2 paper tomorrow at 8pm.It's been very hard this few days. I wonder why, i haven't really started revising for maths but i've got all mind mapped.I just need to do the extra by trying out the topics that are going to be covered.It's partial differential equation and integral of transform. I felt that this two topics are the hardest to score. I really need prayers and i know that there is someone who will remember me in prayer.I pray that God will guide me in this and hold my hand in this hard circumstances. I know it happens for a reason and i respect that. I was expecting the quiz today, as i've really prepared myself for it.It's just matrix and i felt the questions are going to be easy and i would nail it and get a perfect score.But i'm doubtful of tomorrow's maths paper.Really need God's wisdom.Besides that there is a control test tomorrow, meaning we can refer to notes and tutorials in the classroom. I wonder how yo're doing there? I hope you will enjoy happy feet like i did.Was waiting for you to watch it before i can share jokes about it, anyway it's alright. I'm getting through my day pretty well. I'll be meeting ps james on wednesday 11am onwards. Please pray that our meeting wil be fruitful, i hope that the actions that will happen will be beneficial an according to God's plans.I shall write the email after i've spoken about it.I would like to have the email address if you don't mind.I promise things will be better.We have great friends around :) People can see that we've started off with a right footing.I shall not fear. I'll have to go now..Promise me, that God will be first, and i'll pray for what i believe in.Have to start studying for tomorrow's paper.Hope for the best.I wish u the best for the next few days.Take care.

Going away for a few days.

2006-12-08T04:13:00.000+08:00

During this hectic week, I'm going away to catch a breather.Besides some papers coming up next week.I hope this getaway would be a good and refreshing one.Wil be going back to HELP UC tomorrow to go have fun with their Amazingrace treasure hunt, i think it would be the last cf of the year for them.I hope i'm expecting great fun ahead.My friends seems to be busy preparing for the event. Maybe i will be able to meet up with some old friends.Sometimes strange it may seem, but we do bump into long long lost people we know at odd places and odd times. But it's indeed pleasant experience.Not hoping much as friends will be busy busy preparing throughout tomorrow, and i think i should start planning about how i'm going to cover their event writting with light. Skills come through experience, and i need experience. :)

Christmas is coming, can't wait for this joyful occasion.From whati remember, Christmas has always been a very very happy occasion throughout my life.There is always this kind of warmth feeling with every christmas carol.And not forgetting how i use to join carolling during christmas and we use to go to AFamosa resort, old folks home and houses to sing carols.It's really a great feeling seeing the seniors at the old folks smiling hearing christmas carols.But there were a few that weren't very annoyed and agitated from the carols.I wonder why.

Christmas is coming again, with Bless The City @ Dataran Pahlawan.Great, and i've got a few events lining up.Which is Christmas dinner 15th Dec, Bless the city 17th Dec, and Christmas Service 25th Dec. I hope i can get good shots of the events for church.I thank God that he's given me the opportunity to serve. The past few yearts has been a very quiet time. I guess God made me just do nothing and look back at what i've one so far. And I believe He will call you to serve in different areas of ministry when you're ready. Waiting for God isn't a waste of time. Because of that short period of rest, I came back a better person, more well prepared in serving Him.

So i'll be away for the weekend, hopefully i will be able to meet old friends alike.Thinking of it, i have really nothing to do in KL ecxept visiting HELP CF tomorrow.I've got no plans for the weekend and this is not a very good sign..Hmm..Hopefully some kind people will take me out? Haha...

I've got comments on this particular photo.My friend was saying that it's nice., because?Oh yea, because it seems to be shining alone.Then this came verse came to my mind,
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.Yea it's a street lamp..But this particular photo reminds me that, sometimes were like that light that shines alone among others.And what i can picture is like a street with lamps along guiding people to the right path.So keep your fire burning.

Signing off now.Take care people..Happy reading.I hope i will have the time when i get back to post some photos.

Quizzesss~~

2006-12-06T22:54:00.000+08:00

The trimester is going to end really soon, and it's been sucha long week and the week is coming to an end! Yay! There is practically quiz every few days and it's been a hectic day with tmy to-do-list getting longer and longer.I'm glad that toda's quiz went well, hm....the question was really easy.Totally nailed it! Thank God..There will be another one tomorrow and i'm starting to feel a little under the weather now.Maybe because of the high cholestrol seafood i had earlier plus all the hectic submission datelines for lab reports, assignments, midterms, quizzes and also some irrelevant stuffs unrelated to studies.Anyway, I still have the strength to go through this; which is actually really good.I hope this will end soon..How i wish i was born during the stone age or something, all i have to do is worry that i can't bring back food after hunting, or maybe worry about finding a wife because i dun use the spear well enough, or sitting down worrying that my puny hut wouldn't survive through the coming storm..teeheehee...
Anyway, i thank God that i'm born now too.Because i can sit in front of the pc and just chill out after a long day.Stoneage=no pc, only catapulps(lastik if you're more well versed in our national bahasa boleh) to shoot birds in the forest. =________=.

Below are some cat photos i took spontaneously today.It's a black cat by the way.Something random, maybe Ms. Meow(The one and only one kind quiet innocent on the outside evil on the inside Anna Teoh Hui Lin) would like it.So please do tell me if that cat has gone through modeling classes.

For all of you that do know me, u might be in for a surprise.I thank God that i'm now able to finish what i need to fulfill according to His timing.And He's been really good to me and i pray that He will be my Lord and savior forever.I got baptised yesterday.hmm...i think it's a surprise to some of you.

As you walk in the waters of baptism, be steadfast, He holds you in His palm! Psalms 57:7-11.

Happy Belated 21st Birthday Party.

I haven't been blogging for a more than amonth now.I've been really busy catching up with things since november.Most importantly, i missed posting the whole month of november.Firstly, i really think it's very troublesome to post photos on blogger because i can't seem to find a proper interface that allows me to post images in masses.I have to upload one by one and arhit takes ages.How i wish i can just batch resize them, and batch upload all of them and just continue with the normal ramblings.It would be so much easier..I think it would save me a mere half an hour trying to make sure my photos get uploaded one by one.

Quite a few events had passed and i've never had the chance to blog about them..Basically, Melaka Camp 2006, Tadika Permata Pintar Graduation, Hope and Fun Carnival and this lastly, my own 21st birthday bash.Finally, after such a long wait, i took the initiative to resize some of the photos and upload them.

Firstly, thank you all for coming all the way for my birthday, i really do appreciate it.And a million thanks to Ryan, Julian, Yee Mei, Jeremy, Amanda and Anna for coming all the way down from kl just to attend my birthday party.It has indeed been a blessing to have such friends like you all. :) Esp ryan, julian and yee mei who drove down all the way in the evening, makan awhile and drove back..Wow..so the gungho(learnt gungho from HELP people).Thanks so much. I want to thank all the cf and church friends who made it here too.I'm really sorry that i wasn't able to attend to everyone that night.

Okay the fun started on Friday when three funny friends came down from KL to visit this old town of malacca.Jeremy,Anna and Amanda.I think have to exclude Anna since she's a malaccan herself.(hope you're reading this)Hee...but i'm not really that mean rite.So i'm gonna thank you too.I'm quite sad that i wasn't able to take them around much except to jonker walk on Friday night.Which turn out to be quite interesting.Anna=quiet blur malaccan who doesn't know where to go, Jeremy= the guy who got caught up with the camera that he stops everywhere and gets missing, Amanda= the blucase girl who dropped that piece of fried carrot cake. Spend the whole night in jonker, promise that i'll take you all for proper food next time when you're back.Felt really bad that i didn't cause I've never treated my guest so badly in my whole life before.OKay, so Jeremy stayed over.Thinking of it, it's like NSCF leader's camp 2000 mini reunion, since amanda, jeremy and I were in the same camp 6 years ago.

Nothing much happened on Friday itself, Saturday was even more more more...an unproductive day for me and jeremy.Stayed at home the whole day, whole Anna and Amanda continued doing their assignments at home..*sigh* I was busy running around preparing the chairs and etc.

Before the birthday bash, we had a small house dedication and thanksgiving.That explains why the food were all eaten up before the second round.And later in the night, more friends came..Cfer's and church mates alike.Hope that you guys like the food that night. I wasn't able to taste the food until the very next day.And the bash went on smoothly, with brendan doing his amazing card magics.Thanks to brendan for his free entertainment.Adna lso for michael, anna and amanda, who kindly and sensitively came to my rescue and helped me out with my birthday cake..really appreciated it.The whole thing ended around 12am.Went out later with Jeremy, my cuz Anthony to a place where they patiently hangout while waiting for me to get some star pics.Haha...I guess Jeremy was freaking out cause it's total pitch dark. Dont' worry my friend, it's Malacca and it's safe. :)

I'm signing off now.My blog has been resurrected!And i'm back blogging again..Might be going up KL this weekend if everything turn out well.Praying that God will guide me with my last minute preparation before i go for a short holiday in kl.Once again, thanks to all who came that night.It will be a really memorable night for me till my dying day.And also for all the wonderful presents.

Anna, Jeremy and Amanda @ jonker walk on friday night.

Sometimes, anna can be quite cheeky.Hmm...anna, trying to do the cheeky peek over my guitar.And there is another photo of her terpengsan on my bed.Will be using it to blackmail u soon. :)

I thank God for them,Ryan, Julian and Yee Mei who drove down all the way from KL, just to come and eat and went back to kl because i couldn't accompany them.ARggh...i feel so terrible..I hope i can make it up to you guys one day.

My beloved friends from MMU cf.Thanks for taking the trouble to come..

Good food..I agree to it myself eventhough i was only able to taste it the next day.

A 3kg Black Forest birthday cake with my name spelled wrongly..One thing i have to learn, my name is weird.Until the end of my life.People will always spell my name wrongly.

Autoshow directors..Great people who i worked with in Autoshow 2006.Hope our memories will remain always.

As usual, non camera shy people..Haha..wayne u rock.

Signing the guestbook.

I got a pink shirt..I wonder why they said it's my favourite colour.

Opening presents.

Brendan doing his superb card magic.

Their family photo..Grandpa in the centre, with grandma and daughter.Err...please decide who's grandma and daughter among yourself k..:)

Night scene with stars in the sky. Click to view it.This is the large image.I'm not really impressed with the photo.My lens was totally fogged up due to the cold breeze and i had to use manual focus while squatting down trying to frame this pic and it's no fun.Will try again later.

Stadhuys at night

2006-10-31T00:31:00.000+08:00

I love malacca, it's full of historical building, and interesting architecture.Even a 15 minute stop at stadhuys can get me a few nice photos. So there they are..interesting to some, boring to others..So it's been long since i last updated.My last post went missing because i didn't save it, so i rather not retype the whole posting again.So enjoy the pictures below.

I'm back after such a long time.

2006-10-28T02:44:00.000+08:00

It's been a long time since i last updated my blog...During the first week of holidays, i went to Port Dickson for a 2 days trip, followed by a 4 days cf camp.It's been great so far..I don't have the mood to upload any camp photos or photos from my trip, and i sincerely apologize for that.Anyway i'll upload a few photos which i took today.Basically, i prefer street photography rather than portraits or models.It's more interesting to go round capturing things of interested, be it cultural or just mere..interesting people..

So this is the camp part of my blog, i'll write a little about the past cf camp in Port Dickson.It's been a great camp, i mean yes, the people were great and the food was great, and the fun was there...but more importantly, i heard God speak in camp.And it actually made me think..Am I being prepared by God? Making all the mistakes along the way..I guess so, because the hardest lesson in life if to learn them yourself.I don't know how is that prophesy going to come through..bu tthis is not the first time i'm hearing someone saying this to me..We should wait on God..And another thing Pastor said, is renewal..Which struck me..When i reflect back at life ever since i left college.Things are getting stronger..Being fully armoured.If i'm not, why am i doing what i'm doing today? God is working and i know it.I pray and hope that, His will be done not mine. It doesnt matter what other people think of who i was, it matters in God's eyes. I would like to thank my angel in camp, she's been such a nice angel of mine.Showering me with chocolates and can drinks after every meal.My angel even stayed up one night to finish up the friendship band.. The most touching part was the fireworks display set up for me..Oh my gosh, it's like...so unpredictable. :) .. It's the sweetest thing someone has ever done for me..Thanks for all that you've done.

I'm in the middle of my holdays and there only 2 weeks left..I know that holidays are good and i'm enjoying it by staying at home..I guess nothing much has passed.And i only blog either when i have something to say or i really feel like expressing part of what i feel deep inside.So today, is more like expressing part of what i feel deep inside.People make mistakes, when they turn away from God..but when they turn back, they deserve a second chance.

Sunset along a beach..I love this jetty, it brings back memories of my childhood. :)

I bought a Polarizer

2006-10-12T02:20:00.000+08:00

I went out to buy a polarizer for my camera today, rightfully, I'm not suppose to have it with me after like 20 minutes of my purchase.Because of my carelessness..sweat..Sad to say, i felt bad..So i'm sorry for it.Only one person on earth knew what happened..haha...

I went ot visit Mr Ricky who is a professional photographer in the afternoon, spent time talking about photography with him.It's great to know more people in the field.Taught me lot's of stufs and also was very kind enough to buy me lunch and also offer his mini studio for me to shoot portraits.That's so nice of him, in return i felt i should give him some photoshop tutorials..

So here's a test shot with the new polarizer.More saturated photos..and bluer skies to follow.The photo is just a test shot.I know it's not really nice..

-Winds Of Change-

Okay i'm off to my books now...Mechanics of Materials is tomorrow followed by Applied Dynamics..I find this two harder than fluid mechanics now..I will claim James 1:5-6.

Book Of Ruth

2006-10-11T05:07:00.000+08:00

I wasn't able to go for wordilicious investigaters last saturday, I've heard so much good things about it and how it touched people's heart. They did a study on the book of Ruth, as i've missed te event, i tried reading and studying the book of Ruth myself. It's been a long long time since i last the whole chapter from the bible. The book of Ruth is very inspriring, by just taking the time to read it alone, the lives of Naomi and Ruth has really given me encouragement to see how despite the tragedies that has occured,God had not abandoned them. Naomi must have been a really good person, till Ruth forsake the God's of Moab and worship the God of Naomi alone. Most of the times, we're too content living our blessed life that we seldom seek the lost. That's not really good, everyone is guilty of that.Hopefully, I'll be more awake of people around me. Sometimes ,because we think that we've read it time and time again, we decide not to join other christians to learn together. That's so saddening, not to say discouraging to other christians too. As God's children, we should always help others understand the word. I've noticed that MMU students really need the word of God and guidance. I'm so blessed to say that Calvary MMU Cell were able to reach out to four new christians within the past months, I hope I will be able to continue the work with a God fearing attitude. To see a small group being able to touch the lives of many really revived the fire in me for reaching out to people. There is a lot of work to be done, please keep Calvary MMU Cell in prayer..pray that as a small group we are able to teach the word effectively, and to minister to student. As we see results lately, it has spurred us to continue what's fruitful.If any of you want updates on what's going on.Please let me know, i've got so much great testimonies from people who recently accepted God as their savior.I'm encouraged!I really thank God for His works.

I've recalled all that i've learn from past NSCF Leadership camps.I'm really thankful to Scripture Union for teaching me and giving me a strong foundation in reaching out to students. Especially during Dare to Die, Gen-Y Agent and also C2G.
What that' engraved in me all this while is this verse.

John 12:24
I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.

The book of Ruth is a book full of encouragement, even when the events happened in the time of Judges, a period of much unfaithfulness to God.

Looking forward to the holidays after my exams..I pray that God will walk hand in hand with me everyday.

The greatest of all is LOVE.

I called Nikon today

2006-10-09T18:26:00.000+08:00

Exams are near, and i'm yet to feel the heat of it. No stress = no motivation to study. I called Nikon Malaysia up today to thank Mr Paul for the repair, the noise level is now very low at ISO1600..If not better than what i use to get last time. The difference can't be told with a naked eye. So don't worry if your's high, it's too little to be noticed.The bottom line is, i'm happy and content with the repairs done.

Don't really have much to post this few days, been staying at home most of the time..Except going out for dinner and church. I recently came to know that a friend of mine use to write down smses together with the date and time for remembrance in a notebook. Gone are the days when we have so limited storage space for smses and all.I can store 170 smses but i've been really lazy to delete them, so my inbox is usually full to the brim.

I'm looking forward to my holidays at port dickson on saturday and sunday followed by Melaka Camp on monday.I know i'm going to have a good time.Recently, Port Dickson has been a very very prefered location for holidays.I don't kow why, maybe it's cheap and it's near.I've been there countless times already, until my friends ask me why always Port Dickson.I seriosly have no idea.

Nikon is back!

2006-10-08T06:58:00.000+08:00

The long awaited day has arrived..Finally, the long awaited day of return is finally here. :)
Nikon Malaysia did a splendid job on my DSLR, removing the hot pixel and cleaning the dot on the focus screen. To sum it up, kudos to Nikon Malaysia, the live up to their japanese standard indeed. Okay...so this is what i received in the afternoon. Actually i was asleep, waking up around 2pm, the first thing on my mind is to run downstairs to see if the parcel has arrived. An true enough, i saw it lying on the table..I couldn't wait to open and uncover the D50 body.Here's the preview, Nikon Malaysia packed the body quite well as to minimize impact damage during transportation.

So it all went well..I saw a little dust on from the viewfinder but decided to ignore it instead.But wen i got home..I actually tried to clean the viewfinder.I took my blower out and started blowing the dust..Everything is fine...So i went on to test the ccd to see if there is any dust on it... So i took a test shot..I saw like two dots on the photo taken..Hm...so i contemplated if i should try blowing the ccd instead..WRONG CHOICE!!!! ...When i was blowing the sensor i accidentally touched the ccd with the blower..And since i don't have the proper ccd cleaning equiptments..i tried using a lint free paper instead...Oh my gosh...I totally screwed the whole camera..from two tiny dots..it became...super super a lot of dots...=_="

I started to panic...fuh...for that moment i was totally taken aback. And i started planning my next trip to nikon for cleaning..but thank God..In the end, i dunno what happened, i suddenly had the guts to try the microfibre cloth wrapped with a strip of paper....and i tried cleaning it very carefully..It's really risky, might end up scratching the low pass filter instead...*sweat* In the end, i managed to properly clear most of the dots..with remaining 4-5 dots at random location..I rather not touch it anymore...So that's one of the example of how my itchy hands can actually get me into trouble...

Two down, two more to go.

2006-10-06T04:35:00.000+08:00

Two papers downa nd two more to go.That's the current status now. :)
It's been great so far, the two papers were quite alright i would say.Nothing seems to be really difficult.Hopefully, next Thursday's and Friday's paper would be the same.Hope so, actually it's all in the mind, half the battle is already won if you have a optimistic mind.I had more than enough time to finish my paper today, it was suppose to be a 2 hours paper but i finished it in 1 hour and spent the remaining time to double check the answers written..I realyl hope i can get an A for this.. :) And there was this guy beside, trying very hard to look over my OMR paper..He was trying to hard to copy, till i noticed his motion..Argh...so annoying..And i saw him randomly shading answered towards the final 5 minutes..But i guess he didn't try doing it at all as he was just day-dreaming until it's time to hand the answers up. I don't understand how they can like sit there and stare at the questions for the whole 2 hours..i mean without flipping the pages or skipping the hard ones..Anyway it's a multiple choice exam.Should be quite okay, definetly not if you've never studied anything..

-Turrets-

Ask and you shall receive!

2006-10-04T17:49:00.000+08:00

It's been a really smooth journey so far and i thank God for all He's done.Things are turning out really well for me.My Nikon is coming back soon; hopefully by this week.When exams are over..I'm going for a 2 days family holiday and for Melaka Camp from 14-18 Oct, all in Port Dickson.I've been ther a dozen of times and i don't know why i have to go back there every year...But it's a nice place nonetheless.I'm looking forward to it..And my papers next thursday and friday.I'm thankful that the papers aren't back-to-back. Signing off now to study for my coming subjects...BHM 2042 Basic Econs, Management and Accounting..I've won the battle even before sitting for the paper. :) I'm happy! And also Happy Birthday to Amanda who just turned 20 yesterday! :)

If anyone lacks wisdom.

2006-10-02T23:15:00.000+08:00

Ask from the Lord your God. In this exam period, all we need is wisdom. As God has created us equal within His sight, He has the plans and purpose for us in life.
Things may turn out to be hard at time, but we're are all children of God. Dear friends, don't replace His position in your life with something else. :)

James 1:5-6
But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him.

I've got an emo blog.

2006-09-30T00:11:00.000+08:00

Today i was chatting with a friend, apparently my blog is emo..HEhe...:) i guess i wouldn't say it's really emo la.. All of us go through life the same. Just that some people don't post anything about it because they are too confidential in this matter.But anyway, it's just a blog..I don't write everything from my life in it.Rite? Duh...it's just writing..There was once, a friend told me this..The was somethign like this.

XX: What's a blog?
J :Oh, a blog is something like a journal where you post stuffs aboutwhat you're doing and those sort of things..I have a blog too...check it out laa..
XX: Haha, okay i'll check it out..
*after awhile*
XX: Wahh...how can u post all those private stuffs about yourself?
J :Ar? Private stuffs, oh i think it's quite okay to post about what you've done and what's happening in your life.I think it's not really personal..
XX: But people knwo what you do and everything...So no privacy...
J :Oh, those stuffs quite okay what...You're the author..you write what u think is okay la..dun write ur personal things that you don't want people to know what..
XX: I dun think i will write anything like this...
J : OH okay...

Different people have different perceptions on things.This matter is subjective anyway.The line of your confidentiality lies where you want it to be in your own blog.In some cases, other might write stupif things about you, anyway it's their own problem what they awnt to write about you.Just keep to what u think is okay to write then it'll all be okay..If you want..just go out and shoot everyone in your blog.But it will all be meaningless... might even get famous but what's the point...

Exams are very very near....tension....
According to a friend: Who in the world dun have stress??

Okay, my post actually officially ends here..but from a suggestion of a friend, today it's a little special so i shall continue and all on until i wanna sleep...
LEt's start from what's I've done today..I got up around 11, went to library to study with a friend..Just did fluid mechanics coz it's one of the hardest subjects this time..Went to check my coursework marks too..Ms. Chen who's my fluid teacher is quite nice..I missed one mark due to some error in attendance or seomthign like i nvr pass up one tutorial..So i was looking for my tutorial papers to ask for that extra one mark..One mark nowadays means a lot a lot...It can really decide if you're gonna pass or fail wei...scary..In the end she agreed to let me do a few tutorial solutions and pass it to her to get the extra mark..:) Happy~ extra one mark..

So went to try and study fuild again... Only had like 4 tutorials to cover for that subject..So far it's like partially done only..T.T *sob* Have other 3 subjects to go somemore..so annoying..
okay...i'll end this post here today...too sien to post anything else..:)

I called up nikon today, and they say they haven't touch my camera yet..Whoa...after nearly a week there they still haven't touch....

Always Say A Prayer

2006-09-28T03:37:00.000+08:00

In times of need, we sometimes forget to spend a little time praying.Relying in our own strength.We should always remember that there is someone greater than us..

什么是快乐?

2006-09-27T06:08:00.000+08:00

今天的 'post' 是这么怪，大家一定没有想到我会写一个中文的 'post'。
这么无聊。。。哈 ! 哈!
我真的很久没有写中文了,希望改天能写多一点。
哇~~
现在六点半了，我也还没睡。考试要到了。。。我好早已点睡觉。。再见！！！

哭, 並不代表我屈服;
退一步, 並不像征我認輸;
放手, 並不表示我放棄;
正如我微笑, 並不意味我快樂.

我差一点忘了，这个是我跟ling 的照片。。高兴？ :P

I met two old acquitances

2006-09-25T01:49:00.000+08:00

My new Nikon D50 is in the service centre..*sweat*.. thanks Lisa for fetching me and for being my driver that day.heh...We had great banana leaf rice @ Raju's..I don't really fancy indian rice but it was delicious plus cheap.Anyway Lisa was too carried away looking and playing with her nice casio and my panasonic compact camera.Haha... So after lunch off we went to Nikon service centre at Menara PKNS, at the centre we were greeted by the nice looking girl, but i decided to speak to Mr Paul to explain my problem.Spend around an hour there too..After that we just hang around in Amcorp mall until it's time to go home..Mr Paul was indeed nice to acknowledge my effort to go all the way to PJ to send the camera for warranty. So he's gonna do me a favour by couriering it back to Malacca. Hope it's going to be fine.

Nikon Service centre.

Banana Leaf Rice @ Raju's, Jalan Gasing.

And yesterday, to my surprise, i met two old camp friends at Jonker. They are Anna's friends who were on a CF planning retreat; and it was a such a coincidence. 'Dare To Die' was the theme of the camp, the long memories went all the way back 6 years ago. Ever since the food poisoning incident, it's known as the food poisoning camp. Gosh, it's been such a long time, and i still can remember Jeremy and Amanda. It's even funnier that both of them don't even know that they were in the same camp. before although they are in the same CF now..heheee.... :P They say that my memory is freaky, coz i can even remember Amanda's surname...but not Jeremy. :(
They've grown quite a lot in 6 years. Never had the thought that someday, somehow, somewhere i will ever meet them again. I really thank God that i spend the time to meet them up actually, to see hui min. A friend that i rarely keep in touch with.. We has chicken rice together, then limbongan burger and to Amote; some place that sells lots of ice. So went back after the long night.. I'm happy to see all of you again.. Jeremy, Amanda, Hui min and also Jamie..

Hot pixel discovered

2006-09-21T23:59:00.000+08:00

I've recently gotten a D50,as youc an see from the precious post..Ad it's only a week old..With hot pixel in the CCD..ARgh..such 'good' quality control over their cameras..Anyway, it's okay to ignore if it appears at ISO 1600 with super long exposure, but NO...it appears at ISO 400 and also ISO 800 at an exposure of 1/4 sec, the combo that people usually use during low light. Some aleck say that it's totally normal at ISO 1600.Yes true to a certain degree..But how about ISO 400 and ISO 800?How abotu a one week old camera? How do you like your camera to record a hot pixel which looks like a star in the sky. It's totally unacceptable. I'm hoing over to nikon service centre soon.My dealer ask me to go there and make 'noise', which i politely ask him how to. He said, just make noise that you buy it recently and this kinda things happen already. Anyway can't blame him, he's just a dealer, nikon will listen to their customers more attentively than dealers.Hmmm...have to put on my 'make noise face and expression' when i go over to nikon for warranty.By the way, the guy from nikon is pretty helpful, to offer to courier the camera back when it's done. Just keep my fingers crossed that it will be well fixed by our local people.If it's good, bravo and thumbs up for our local nikon technicians, if not, i guess it's just totally normal..As we're living in bolehland.

I've got poisoned..

2006-09-13T06:06:00.000+08:00

Haha...that's what some people would say in nikonian terms when u have the desire to get nikon gears.. I'm officially a nikonian since saturday 5.30pm 10/9/2006. I've officially bought the Nikon D50 which i've been dreaming of this past one year.. :) ...Literally, i risked my life getting this cam. :) Couldn't get a good deal in malacca so I bought it from a camera shop at pudu plaza after fellow friends from photomalaysia.com suggested..Got the D50 body, 18-55mm kit lens, UV filter and the screen protecter. Choose this over the D70s because it's fairly priced and the extra one or two features on the D70s won't be really necessary at all.So D50 is the way to go. the D50 might be discontinued instead of the D70s because of the release of D80.But i doubt so, anyway they're nearly similar in features. D50 has a better noise control over D70s and a supposely a newly designed CCD compared to D70s. D70s is cool too btw..can attach vertical grip but in my case not really necessary.Don't have big hands.So as for now, it's cool to have a new toy around. Able to go shooting again.. :) this time...with DSLR..hehe...owh, hmm... i'll take my compact cam along so it won't be under use and get jealous over the new baby. :P

Anyway most great pictures ever made are on compact cameras.Here's some of my compact cameras photos that i've shared on photomalaysia.

Outdated autoshow 2006 pictures.

It's been a long time since i last blogged. :) was too busy with things and didn't really had the opportunity to type.. Nowadays very lazy to write blogs already.AUTOSHOW 2006 ended with a great success last month. Dang, we were all so happy and glad that it's finally over. Fuh...now have time to pay attention in class and study..No more late night meetings and all the tiring work to do. Below are some of the pictures i took during autoshow. It was basically a drift event with remote controlled car competition and car clubs gathering.

Finally, i'm sick...Went to see a doctor today.Waited two hour and got an MC.But i told the nurse i only needeed MC for today.And i didn't even use that MC, i went to class as normal..But in the evening, when i wanted to go for cf, my condition became worst..ARggh..Now i'm wondering if i can go back to the hospital and take the MC for tomorrow..suddenly feeling this way is very terrible...hope thihngs will get better so can go to class..It was fluid mechanics midterm last monday, and gosh, there isn't any good news..

It's been a tiring day.

2006-07-30T03:38:00.000+08:00

It's beena long day today..Sigh, someone asked me just after pool.Why i so stoned? Honestly, i don't know why too..Just stone..Maybe thinking too much.Brought 4 of my friends and spend the whole evening meeting some inspector..I feel so bad for dragging them into this mess..sigh.Fluid mechanics mid term is on monday, and sad to say i find it hard..Why can't life be simpler.Yesterday was kinda nice, went to jonker with a friend.Ended up driving aimlessly to A'Famosa Resort.Saw that the cowboy town is already up and running.Hopefully can go there one of this days..and it was great just talking to someone all the way..thanks for the company.Nikon is releasing their new DSLR in like 10 days.Some people say it's named as D80.The sony DSLR is already out offering quite good features..How i wish i could get that nikon..It's already 4.00am while typing this post..Gonna sleep..

FES camp pics.

2006-07-27T08:21:00.000+08:00

Finally, i was able to upload the pictures from FES Infectious F's camp.It was indeed a great camp but i heard it's going to be the last camp for college students.We've learn about infectious faith, infectious fellowship, infectious friendship and also evangelistic bible study.It's something like we're gonna infect our classmates with the love of God.We were also given a bread so we can infect it with as much fungus.I've met a few of some old friends too. during the camp, there were great sessions not forgetting the fun we had playing games.My group won, that explains the celebration picture below.Met so many nice people during camp.After camp we drop by seremban to visit jessica and her family took us for nice ice kacang and also fish head mee hoon.It was good..I'm thankful that i signed up for it.It really relighted the fire once again.And i feel so comfortable..The camp bring back memories of Scripture Union camp..sigh, i miss those camps..I've met a lot of nice people too..Hope to keep in touch.

Karen was down in malacca with her friends. So all of us went for food and everything. Ate ate ate..so much. Malacca is getting a little dull, not much places to go..except those historical places which young people find it boring. :) Rachael is back, it's been ages since i last saw her. To rachael if you ever read this, haha..it's been a long long time since i last saw you. I don't get the opportunity. I think i'll visit you sometime when i'm free.Week one is already over, time to get started again..Long week ahead..

IF camp is over.

2006-06-02T02:30:00.000+08:00

Sobz..i kinda miss camp..Camp was just okay..Althought i didn't really like the ROK game..Some things they do not hygenic, have to run around then have to do stupid stuffs..Arrgh...dun like..rather just sit down for sessions and listen.. So the first day was quite okay..Everything was okay and all..everyone was kinda free the first day..people from cyber and melaka were just hanging around the field talking..Then on the second day, everyone went to dip in the sea.The session was about the end times.After listening, i suddenly realise that, the end times is scary.I prefer the last year's game session..Last years IF was more fun..The games rocks.This year, it went on for 3 days, and towards the second day, the whole concept got a little boring for me.I kinda pity the people being 'tortured' at the detention center.It's like no matter what also will kena torture somehow..So sien to play..One of the games was really unhygienic, we had to fille a small bottle with green peas, red beans and the other beans using out mouth..and the beans were in a container filled with flour water..YUCKS!!! and after a person had filled the bottle, it's poured back into the container..So we complain complain..In the end no need to use mouth d..Play maple better..We were assigned into our own respective groups.The groups were named after aboriginal tribes and somehow, my group was named Jakun..Sigh, terrible wei...haha..Our group consist of Andrea who is my last IF group mate, Carol, Renee, Mark, Fabian, Rachel, Michelle, Jo Wen and Desmond.They were all great people..Our group unexpectedly won the 5 minute sketch thing..But thinking of it, what happened to the two bottle of coke and the snacks..WHO ATE IT??? On the first night, me and Vincent quietly sneaked out of camp to a nearby mamak shop.haha...to get our supplies of snack and yum cha awhile..Now IF camp is over, i kinda miss the people..:( hope to see you people next year.For those who are graduating, all the best...Below are pictures of the camp, i'm too lazy to sort them out..yawn..

MMU bermacam-macam pattern...

2006-05-18T01:43:00.000+08:00

Lately, there is this notice posted on the glass partition in the library of our famous university..Take a look at their horrendous English..The whole notice rivals the essay of a 10 year old kid..Talk about graduates having bad command or proficiency of English this level of English used, it's weird that we are still talking about our fresh grads not able to secure a job because they can't speak proper English..I think the staffs need MUET more than the student..Anyway, when I read that notice, I couldn't help but laugh...Take a look below.. They said, (two mouse were stolen) and also (has been occured)...Another feat of MMU..I salute...

Dim Sum early in the morning..

2006-05-17T06:04:00.000+08:00

Sigh, it's already 6am now, just got back from dim sum.Went to Vincent's house to study Electrical Technology..ARrggh...i just don't like exams..Anyway, dim sum was great..IT's been a long time since i spend time early early in the morning drinking hot tea.It was 5am when i reach the shop near kampung hulu.I saw like 7 person above the age of 70 eating..Wow..I do feel weird..Haha..Hoping my exams are gonna be over fast.I wanna go do stuffs..yawn...I'm sleepy..I've been playing maple lately..Level 15 only...Gonna maple after exams are over.Lately, i've came across this cool game..It's something like half-life.Try downloading, it' free it's an online multiplayer. http://www.gunzonline.com. This is just a short posting..Gonna sleep now..

Exam started.

2006-05-16T02:33:00.000+08:00

Exam started today, Engineering maths was okay..Strength of materials was hard..I didn;t study enoughi guess..Sigh..*sob* Next paper will be thursday and then friday..*sob* Anyway, i woke up just in time for paper..Considered late to my standards because i left house at 8.50am for a 9am paper..I sort of overslept because i was too tired..Couldn't really wake up..Luckily asher woke me up..OR else, i might have missed the whole paper..*sweat* Sigh i hope i won't miss any paper..Sigh, it's so scary to wake up knowin you missed your whole exams.Anyway, today has been a little more relax for me, went out to chat with Adrian at the apple burger stall..It's time to get back to studies, all the best to the rest..I'll be finishing my exams on this Friday *smile*. Then after that, I wanna go kl for the International Motorshow.Bye..

New tripod has arrived.

2006-05-13T15:39:00.001+08:00

My new tripod has arrived, you can see the difference between the two tripod, one is a table tripod which came bundled with my first digicam, a nikon coolpix 3200...Basically, it came bundled when i bought the camera from this shop in Mahkota Perade.He told me it was a free gift together with an extra grandcell battery and charger.Little did i know that, the price of the cam was an extra 200+ ringgit compared to the other shops..ARggghh...I got conned..Never buy from the camera shop beside burger king..The guy who sold me is the boss of the shop somemore..After that experience, i bought another camera fx8 from Fotokem instead, besides that they give better price and the sales people there are very more polite..If their price is higher than that camera shop beside burer king, just ask them politely if they cvan give u a better price..I'm sure they will...And i'm gonna buy another camera from them soon..I believe in good customer service..May the person who sell me extra expesive stuffs earn lots of money and stay far far away..They always recommend unwanted and unpopular cameras to people so they can clear stock...Becareful when you buy from them..Go fotokem, they know their stuffs and are able to explain why certain brand is good..What that other shop will tell you is, bigger megapixel better camera which is totally bull...Sweat..Okay i'm hapy with my new tripod and it's time to study for my exams on monday.Wishing all mmu students the best in t heir exams..bye..

Last CG BBQ at pantai kundur.

2006-05-12T13:40:00.000+08:00

Yesterday, cilipadiz CG had our last cg gathering.We had our last bbq at pantai kundur.It's fun really fun hanging out with the rst during this final week before exam..It all started in the evening, and ended really early.Before 11 we all went home.I was able to play around with fabians pentax slr..Haha...which you can see below, some pictures are nice..I bought a sakure TR35 tripod....My friend said sakure isn't really good.But anyway, i heard that the market price is around Rm130.So it's cheap, and it doesn't matter.I wasn't at home to receive it and it's a public holiday today..Hope it's okay..Fast delivery..I'll post about it when it comes..

MMU server get hacked..

2006-05-08T01:18:00.000+08:00

Hmm...this what the mmu webmail page looks like now.I don't know if mmls also got hacked..Anyway they jsut say server down..It caused so much trouble.I can't even access to check my lecture notes..Stupid..Anyway i don't really bother is they hacked the webmail..What i know is, they are good. All th best for exam...I'm kinda getting the push now..Thanks for friends who supported..Take care..Hope to post more this coming days.

The need of a kickstart.

2006-05-07T01:22:00.000+08:00

It's just a week before my first final paper..And gosh, i really need the extra push now..God please help me..It's so hard concentrating on what i really have to do now..I'm kinda lost in a big big world..Maybe this trimester just passed too sudden..I never really got to get my balance..or being able to merging into the rhythm of studying after everything that happened..Maybe i need a little extra time to get inphase with things..Argh..no time to find out how or why..Just need to start..The starting always needed the extra push.... The initial movement of a car need the extra torque and power from the engine..While after it gets moving..Momentum takes over..while the engine only provides sufficient power to maintain the speed..Sigh..How i wish life could be so easy like that..signing off to do something more productive(i hope)..

For that friend who has alway been a good friend.. Listening to me quietly, listening to all my whining, accompany me when i'm down..Oh yea, i hope i had been a good listener too..Although i don't really know you for donkey years but it's been great getting to know you.I couldn't help but to add you in my list of good friends that i have..Thanks a lot..Friendship forever yea..this poem is for you by Jean Kyler McManus.

Friends

A friend is someone we turn to

when our spirits need a lift.

A friend is someone we treasure

for our friendship is a gift.

A friend is someone who fills our lives

with beauty, joy, and grace.

And makes the whole world we live in

a better and happier place.

A stroll towards a focused eternity..

2006-05-06T01:35:00.000+08:00

When i took this picture, i knew what i wanted to display.I was thinking about how some people live a blurry life, heading towards a focus which seems far away.In this picture..i focused the end of the corridor,the place where we reach our ultimate goal.Things may seem hard in life, what we need is a helping hand, which in fact isn't easy to come by.

"But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life; and thanks to a benevolent arrangement of things, the greater part of life is sunshine."

- Thomas Jefferson -

arkkkkkkkk

2006-05-02T02:57:00.000+08:00

sheepishly smiling..
at a distance,
why? I don't know why..
does this make any sense?
maybe not to you but yes to me..
chances of an explosion of great magnitude..laid rest deep inside..
why? because it's unnecessary...yes it is not..
*slaps head* at the same time..
because it's just not right..
being above all isn't everything, in the end,
we would eventually end up at the bottom of everything..
bad move bad move,
check your acquaintances,
to see if they were you best friend in disguise,
what you think is your best might not turn out to be,
so check yourself....this might or might not imply to myself..
dumb posting..

A cup filled with air.

2006-04-28T01:21:00.000+08:00

if a cup would to be filled with air...would it still be called empty?
..
a pessimist would say it's still empty,
a optimist would say it's already filled,
i would say it's filled, but it can still be filled with something better..

It's been a tiring day, went out for kfc with cell group..Didn't really do much..ends up blogging..Couldn't sleep yesterday, which explains why i missed class today..Sigh...Have to go finish up some work at the law firm before end of this month..Gonna work tmr..Just in the morning..*bored*

Just taking a stroll.

2006-04-21T04:37:00.000+08:00

Let's take for example a person, who is thirsty..Who is walking along a long road, and day after day, He continues walking...and let's say, if one day, He sees a stream along His way, should he stop and drink from that particular stream?Let's make the story more interesting, He can only choose a place to stop.Or should He continue walking? Who know what lies ahead, there might be a river ahead which he can't see now.We sometimes walk the long road, we see a stream, sometimes we stop by, hopefully we would stay by it..sometimes we think there is a river ahead, thus causing us to be uncontent. Most of us would continue, only to find that the river is somewhere further than what we expect it to be.SOmetimes we stop, but in the end, we try and find something better, because we aren't content..Anyway the truth is, there isn't any river, they are all just streams...They are all the same..It's only how different and unique you are not how different are they. Friends, this is just an illustration.Something like the fish story below..If you don't get it, maybe you can think harder..

I am not wrong..I was never wrong because i did nothing wrong.Don't ever think that i was wrong..Don't laugh at me because I was foolish..Because, in the matter of fact, there wasn't any stream..

Reincarnation the movie is good..

2006-04-20T02:31:00.000+08:00

I went to watch incarnation today, yea...it's a ghost movie and i shouldn't be watching it...Anyway I just like to look at their storyline and effects..Not because I'm a horror movie lover or seomthing.But it's interesting to watch sometimes.The whole movie has a twist to it's storyline at the end..The whole movie requires excessive thinking.About why this and that happens.In the end, I would say it's a sad ending to it.

Another thing is, i learned a new word, called cryptoamnesia.Google it to see what it means, I still believe that God made me special. His word will always remain strong..and always will be in my heart.

Easter.

2006-04-19T02:33:00.000+08:00

Easter had just passed, wasn't able to go to calvary church because i was busy working in mp selling hotlink simpack.Anyway i did go to an ealier service which is at 6.30am.. So super sleepy.. Today I was able to go for CF.Haven't been to CF for quite awhile, was busy with meetings and if there isn't any meeting, I'm too tired after a long day in class. Anyway, today in CF, I really did think of a few stuffs , was thinking of how blessed i am knowing that there is someone who is watching over me. Someone i can talk to , all of a sudden, I felt as if my burdens were lifted off me, I'm just happy..=) Hmm... I was thinking, I don't really need anything to make me happy, I'm just plain happy to know that I have someone up in heaven looking down, and I kno wthat when i seek Him, he'll answer me.. Easter is when He rose from the dead, giving life to all..Easter has more meaning than just easter eggs and easter bunnies.It's not at all about those eggs or bunnies, but more importantly He rose from the dead. I may not be the best or a perfect person, each has our own flaws, but we are constanly reminded that our actions has their own consequences. Hope this week will be a nice week, with a few small plans ahead..I guess i won't be able to go for Ming Chiang's birthday party this Friday..Have part time accounts to finish before May..Talk about dateline..I thought i had a long time to fnish such a small task.In the end, dateline is near and i have to continue working..Nonetheless, there's gonna be a big big $ this time..

Get me a Nikon D50 or D70s..Hmm...lately i've been searching for a D50 or D70s..

Evening Ray

Super freaky dream...

2006-04-17T23:40:00.000+08:00

Thermodynamics quiz was at 8pm...Woke up early for lab class.Luckily it ended early today, cause i finished the experiment early..Sadly, it's just another lab report due in two weeks..I had a super weird dream today, i dreamt of a few people i know, and the weird thing was, i dream of this friend, who is my classmate and isn't close to me at all..I dream of him a few times, and when i woke up before goign for my afternoon class..I saw a message in my phone from him..And this is the first time he's ever sent me an sms.. Izzit just a coincidence? Cause i've never read it before i slept..Yikes.Sometimes this timely coincidence really freaks me out.Which explains even more when my dreams reoccur.

Autoshow is coming really soon, sigh, I don't really know how to handle people sometimes.Things might not seem so smooth but i'm sure that it'll work out well in the end..Exams are drawing nearer, but still, studies are getting harder and harder..Wonder why people have to study so hard to achieve something they can't confirm in the future.Will we be still around? How if al of a sudden, you have a great gift to generate income which is even more than applying ur knowledge, life is a race, a race to achieve self sustainance, self pleasure and self esteem.In the end, it all depends on how we apply what we know and not how much we know.If we have all the knowledge in the world, but we can't connect to people...err.like some of the lecturers..Aiyoh, how to get respect from people la..or you know what that stuff is about but don't know the way to do it..useless also.Btw, this is another crappy post..I can't remember the last few sentece i type btw..If you've read until here, I truly salute ur patience..Bye.

Weird day laced with weird dreams.

2006-04-14T03:04:00.000+08:00

Every morning, when i wake up for early classes, I just feel so unmotivated.IT's like, ARrr..another day in lecture..At this early in the morning!So i was dragging my feet just to attend a one hour class yesterday..Because there is going to be a quiz during class.I didn't even dress up for an hour of boring lecture.Just wore what i felt comfortable and went for the one hour lecture.When i walked out of the lecture hall..I was greeted with a nice remark..My friend said, WAh..You very slumber eh..Short pants and slippers all..Haha...A matter of fact, I didn't even find it nessesary to dress up for a hour hour class at 9am in the morning,which i will be back home doing my own stuffs or continuing with sleep until my next with is at 2pm.

Anyway, I had my sleep continuation and had a few weird dreams..And those dreams are really freaking me out.Partly caused by my own personal experience of dreams turning into reality a few months later.It's so mind boggling being in a position absolutely the same as it was in your dream, doing the same thing, talking the same thing and seeing the same thing..

This are pretty fine lately, and i thank God for it. I remembered posting about a series of unfortunate events.But am i glad they are all over, and things are starting to brighten up as if spring is just around the corner.Hey..I'm on cloud nine!Finals are approaching at a pace so fast, even a speeding bullet is left behind. Does that sound right? It's a figure of speech, for those people out there who laughs at my broken english..!It doesn't matter to me if it sounds right or not..It's just a blog my friend..IT may reflect badly upon my own level of English proficiency, but it doesn't matter to me..

Suddenly, without midterm breaks this trimester.I guess it's in a way good because it doesn't give up the time we need to chill out and get all lazy.I'm working towards finals and i hope i won't be having sleepless nights before my final papers.I hate sleepless nights.It's pure torture!I remember having early sleep during my PMR days because i was so freaking confident with the paper the next day that i didn't even worry a single bit..How i wish uni could be that way..HAha...Not boasting through that statement because i prooved it myself..Now it's totally different, finals come, sweat like mad thinking about ways to get through it.

Tomorrow is just another ordinary Friday, gotta get up early for some appointments.And below is a picture entitled Riverview.

Riverview.

A Single Rose.

2006-04-13T10:27:00.000+08:00

A single rose to symbolize the one and only.Yesterday i had this kind long chat with a friend, about this weird thing called love. Is it possble for a guy and a girl to be really close friends without turning into something special?I use to believe it's possible, or can i say to a certain extend i think, yea why not.Anyway izzit weird to finally find out that, the guy or girl you've been talking to decided to have a crush on you.Alright, let me stress the word decided.I wouldn't remove decided because it's on triggers when the thought finally crosses that persons mind.It's like, after years or months of being a close friend. One would think, hey we go along pretty well. how about the next step? It's weird, and when things er.. dun happen according to what is desired. People start drifting away. True huh.. To a certain extend yes. But people have to move on rite?For example, let's talk about the common illustration of the fishes in the seas. It's like a mad mad world of fishies out there. And as a tiny perch, we go round and round doing our own stuffs.And there is this beautiful marlin that came along..Wait, marlins and perch dun mix. wateva...let's say another perch..So okay here the story goes, a perch and a perch, they swam together for awhile, in the end, time passes by and it's time to move on. So the perch leaves to somewhere better in the land of fishies.And bang* this little perch wonders why the other perch could just swim with him/her forever. Maybe because there are other perch that would come along. If everyone would to stay, wouldn't it end up into one big mess? Anyway it's just an illustration, doesn't really apply to everyone. When we are friends, how would we know what will weturn out to be later on. No one can guarantee everything, but with the right mind and attitude, wouldn't things be just fine? Anyway all this is just too thought provoking. Let's just live life hoping for the best each day. And when we've done that well, some distant perch would finally notice us. =)

'Gubra' the movie..

2006-04-12T00:14:00.000+08:00

I went to watch Gubra today..It's a malay movie..Okay, I actually went to watch it instead of Lucky Number Slevin.Friend said quite nice so decided to watch it instead..Hm..At first i thought it's gonna be lame.But yesterday my friends were talking about sepet and how it got so cencored because of the racist storyline.So i guess gubra might be a little interesting this time..Since it's Yasmin's prodoction..

Gosh, the movie was super hilarious! giler funny until cannot stop laughing. In the cinema me and my friend were the only chinese...Hah...and basically i was the only one in the whole cinema who could understand the cantonese part because the whole movie was screened without subtitles.Actually i wonder, why can't they just put a chinese or english subtitle for it?Since all other movies have BM subtitle.How if a foreigner is interested to watch our own local production.Will they ever be able to watch it?Talk about getting local movies international..Gah..

Btw, talking about Gubra, some scenes were a little 'hot', it all started at the beginning when they show one of the protitutes adjusting her bra.At that point i was thinking, wah all this can be screened ar? And the part where the patient's butt was shown.Sigh, all this can show on local film la. Even kissing scenes are being cencored in international blockbusters. Talk about being biased. Oh yea, for those who are going to watch Gubra, there is one super funny part on the scene, a lot of people nvr noticed it.Remember to look at the patient tag of the chinese old man, his name is Lee Kuan Yu..Haha..Are they making fun of their premier next door or wat.I was kinda luahging when i saw it.Just read Yasmin's own post on her blog i guess. http://yasminthestoryteller.blogspot.com/

It talks about the hardship and the requirements for producing a local movie..No tax reduction for local nmovie in other languages?etc etc..Basically, i'm happy to be a person who finally watches a local production.Haha.. hm..contribute to local artist..Etc etc...

This past week has been a whole week of movie..Went to watch Ice Age 2, When A Stranger Calls and today, Gubra..When A Stranger Calls is more like what Asher call, a low budget movie.And according to Annna, they save money on bodies, fake blood and etc..and i think they also save on stuffs being broken during the movie..Ice Age 2 was just another cartoon..Nothing so special besides the funny scenes, compared to gubra..Watching when a stranger calls is a little waste of money.

Tuesday is gone, now it's Wednesday, so it spells back to studies..Arr...Friday quiz again..Every Friday quiz until the end of our semester..Are you crazy Dr. Lecturer???

Trinite 2006 Is Over.

2006-04-03T22:22:00.000+08:00

Trinite, a night where most people were waiting for is now over.It's considered a prom for students from of engineering , IT , business and law.ERm..But i dont' know if it's really for the final year graduates because they never mentioned anything about the final year students leaving..I thought it's suppose to be for them, that's the meaning of prom..Btw, it's just another gathering for me, which everyone have to dress and look their best.Alright, so performers were like PG165, a band from uni, Daniel Lee, the Malaysian Idol, Jaclyn Victor, Reshmonu, besides that, Amber Chia was there to spice up the night.Pretty hot..The food served wasn't the best ever for a buffet dinner, there wasn't enough food for everyone too..So it was just performances by local artist, then best dressed, then prom king and queen, and ended with the dance..The dance was super short..What a prom to go to..Anyway the night didn't do justice to my RM73 bucks..HAha...the after party was better althought i spend only Rm11 bucks on drinks..Met up with Jared, Evon, Jason, Hong Ying and his friend later. Met them after a long while..

Louis, Lucius and Me waiting for time to pass.

Tomorrow is midterm..

2006-03-29T01:23:00.000+08:00

Electrical Technology and Applied Thermodynamics is hard..Sigh, i wonder why i choose this path..I kinda miss the holidays. Since this time we on't have a midterm break. So it's studying all the way, no time for us to readjust to the phase.Hmm..This would be the final part of studying in our lives anyway. So I will just have to endure another 3 years. Before i start thinking of doing something else.. I've always wanted to study something that i like. Maybe designing, marketing, something that i can put my creativity to the test..I might take up a second degree after this. Or go on a backpacking trip for a few months.. Just having a period of time where i can explore the outside world, see new places, meet new people.Looking at different cultures, historical artifacts..Wah..I'm in such a dreamy mood now..Or rent a house by the beach in some island and spend a few months just living by the beach and think of my next step in life..Might even write a business plan then.WAh..dream on...Anyway etech paper is tmr, and i'm killing my brain cells by just staying up this late to do last minute studies..Sigh..Bad bad..and even posting something here..Might be because it's so quiet here with soft music playing in the background and i just feel like talking to somebody..The PC has sort of became my best friend ever since i'm back in malacca, what more blogging..at least you have somehere you can write whatever stuffs u feel. AAAAAAAARrrrrrrr....Test test test...Darn...Feel so shitty now..Cause i just don't seem to know anything..Wondering why i'm still able to maintain a place in there..By the way, time passes fast, erm..I like photographs..=) went to take photos again two days ago..And basically I spend more time doing photoshop tutorials more than all my 4 subjects combined..That's bad...If any of you wanna learn some good photoshop techniques..I might be able to give some tips if i have the time... My part time accounts work is accumulating by the tonnes..I have to finish all the back dated stuffs before May..Time time time..How I wish I could just stop you for a moment..

I think i'm done for today..All the best in ur coming exams..And Happy birthday to all my friends who's birthday falls in March..Sry if i ever forgotten your birthday..Here's one of the pictures i took few days ago..It's a wood carving that is rare in this modern times.The origin is said to be from Indonesia.

Helpless..

2006-03-23T06:17:00.000+08:00

It's 6.18am in the morning, i'm still awake.Wondering why..Sigh..Helpless..
Fellow readers, if you don't want to get into a depressive mood.I strongly suggest u skip this post.

When things are like autumn;leaves are falling,
Things seems to die away,
We know that spring is near,
Waiting for the day that spring would come,
How if spring never turned up; Would we continue waiting?
My friend, when autumn is the season of my life,
I wish i could pull you through,
But spring hasn't arrived yet..
I am yet to see the bright flowers, beautiful daffodils,
Chriping birds and eagles soar.
Time and time again they pass me,
I wish i could just say wait,
Things are fast paced,
No one would really stop anyway,
I wish i could stop nearer so i could reach out my hands,
But i can't because i'm still miles away,
Waiting for another passer-by.
Dearest friend, things may turn out bad or even worst,
Things will not always feel right,
We are not litter by the roadside,
We are mortals, with feelings deep inside;
Dear friend, pick yourself up,
We may think that no one bothers,
Is that so? Maybe it is, maybe not;
If you could get a person to understand you,
Don't feel alone; Even if you think that no one cares,
There is; just that we don't feel it;
I don't care whether it rhimes or not,
It doesn't matter if it does,
So what if it does? This will never put me at the top;
Of our world's hierachy;
Now, now my dream, is standing close by my side.
Saying words I wish to hear, and I'm reeling deep inside.

I just feel like blogging.

2006-03-23T01:51:00.000+08:00

Today's pretty fun, went to sunny's surprise party..Hmm...A time to relax after a long week.Autoshow meeting is tmr, I am wondering how to turn the board over, stop all the nonsence and disrespect..Sigh..Why don't they ever respect people..Anyway I went shopping today..Was suppose to buy a few stuffs but anyway, ended up with one G2000 shirt instead.Whee...It's nice nice..And collected a new pants from my tailor.Sigh, i wanted a straight cut pants but i felt that it's still a little too baggy on the tights.And that guy said..I dunno anything..GRrr...Pissing off after i paid so much for it..The first time i made my coat, that tailor embroidered my name wrongly after i repeatedly told him many many times before.And then, he made it a little to tight and it looked a bit too flare and he said i myself told him. Whateva, he's always boasting about his past experience and don't listen to what you have to say.When u ask him stuffs, He'll just say that you're a noob..

Anyway, was wondering what to wear next saturday.Hmm...I guess I'll wear whatever comes to my mind on that day.So it was Sunny's Birthday earlier and darn, i got dunked with cakes, practically, everyone had their share of cakes on their face.Are were attacked, except Vincent...he was, sad to say, raped..haha...jk kay.You rock man!And in the process of attacks and tormenting.Two fellas got injured..hehe..I'll let the pictures do the talking..Dun feel like typing anymore.See ya

Durian season is coming..

2006-03-22T00:03:00.001+08:00

Recently durians were sighted around malacca.This is going to be a boring post by the way.Since i'm so busy to write something nice. Everytime i drive out to buy durians i can't find them, but everytime when i don't feel like eating them, they seem to be everywhere. Anyway i have a plate of durians right in front of me. It's late and most people say that durian is 'heaty'..? I think so cause everytime i eat before sleeping, i'll wake up with a bad tummy ache. Too bad, it still smells good and i'm gonna eat it. For your information there are so many types of durians around. Check out this site http://www.durianss2.com, it features the different kinds of durians, but it's really expensive.. Since this is the early beginning of the durian season, good durians like D2, D101 and the red prawn(that's what they cal it btw) is rare and if there is, very expensive. Wait till June and there will be plentiful..Happy durian eating..

Durians..looks good and tastes good..

Hitz.fm birthday bash.

2006-03-08T01:10:00.000+08:00

This is a really late post..hehe...I was really busy last whole week and i just didn't have time to write anything.I'm just posting pictures on the Hitz.fm birthday bash that i went last saturday. Was there from evening till night, got myself a hotlink cap and some other nonsence.There was a helicoptrer ride if you buy a RM100 hotlink reload card.Didn't get it too..wasted.The event rocked and i saw a few stuffs and did a few things too.Here are the pictures.

The crowd was great.Good music and street partying.

The stage area.

They were getting people to dance.But sadly not many could.Different environment i guess.Malaccans not used to street party.haha..not like what i heard that happens in Brazil.

Below are fireworks pictures.It was a surprise so i can't take good pictures of it..GRrr...what a waste..no tripod.

Met Karyn there too..

During the day, we went for a few games, some bull riding thing and this wall climbing.It was too easy.Finished it under a minutes.Vincent was lagging and i reached first. Xp

Sunset that evening.

Night scene of the bash.

Hitz new cruiser.It's a Ford Ranger.

And finally for the highlight of the event i met a BITCH!

Okay cool take a look at this..'BITCH'...Izzit him or the one he's holding??Anyway i thought it's wrong for them to do such stuffs in public huh..where's the JAIM?

The Joyous Years.

2006-03-06T04:03:00.000+08:00

This picture portrays the joyous years of growing up together, tears and laughters are all part and parcel of growing up.It reminds me of the time when I was younger.

Funny waiter.

2006-03-03T01:22:00.000+08:00

Today there was this Mmusic thingie in uni at 9pm.So i went and paid Rm5 for it and half way through after 2 performers.I got a little annoyed with this lead singer who was doing some dumb stuffs on stage.He started hitting his head with the mic, then i guess the sound man off the volume for it.Right after that, he hit his stoes with it.Just to make that thumping sound. The sound man shouted woi right from the back of the mixer.Attention seeker huh..But the wrong method..Wat's wrong with rockers nowadays?? Duh..I got a little annoyed and just went home without finishing the whole concert. Aren't these people technical enough to understand that the microphone for goodness sake contains a diaphragm which is fragile. So go learn about it and treat those items or watever with care since it's not yours.

I went for a drink with a bunch of friends, so we ordered drinks and hence arrived later on.There was this funny part about this waiter.First, my friend ordered iced nescafe but when the drink arrived it looked more like tea.So my friend was asking if it's tea..The funny thing is, the waiter started looking and he nearly tried to taste it himself. But that's when i said, ' Haiyoh, kasi dia cuba la, kalau bukan lu bawa balik tak apa la.'.. And my friend tasted it himself. first of all, i was wondering..If he guy tastes it and think it's nescafe, what is he going to do? Gvie it back? haha..we ended up laughing out heads off.. Foolish waiter..Er..but if they are smart, why are they... *complete it urself*..xp

Autoshow autoshow autoshow..I'm a little freaking out already..Anyone who is interested to join autoshow06 as working committee please do inform me..It's gonna be a good event where you will be able to know more people, have more experience in doing stuffs and just having a good fun time with all the rest of the committees..

Beyond the horizon

2006-02-28T01:51:00.000+08:00

Life can give us a hundred reasons to smile, and a hundred reasons to cry. It all depends if we want to smile or cry when those hundred reasons are there.

Horizon beyond.I felt that this picture shows the mighty sea and sky blending in harmony. The great energy of the sun fading away giving way to darkness.With modernization that wither trees.

Guaraná from Brazil.

2006-02-27T01:15:00.000+08:00

This is a Brazillian sort of soda.It consist of guaraná, which is the main ingredient.Given to me by a friend who went to Brazil for a year. This two bottles were so lucky to board the plane all the way.I think these drinks can't be kept long cause the expiry date says April 2006. I was wondering if it's some kinda Brazillian type of tongkat ali.Since it has some energy boosting properties and some people consider it an aphrodisiac.Read the wikipedia notes below for more info. I feel so disheartened to drink it la.. Whee...Thanks so much Esmie!

Tiny bottles.

Below is taken from wikipedia.
Guarana or Guaraná (pronounced gwa-ra-'naa), Paullinia cupana (syn. P. crysan, P. sorbilis), is a shrub or small tree in the Sapindaceae, native to Venezuela and northern Brazil, known for the high stimulant content of the fruit. The name 'guaraná' comes from the Tupi-Guarani word wara'ná. Guaraná plays a very important role in their culture, as this plant is believed to be magical, a cure for bowel complaints and a way to regain strength. They also tell the myth of a 'Divine Child', that was killed by a serpent and whose eyes gave birth to this plant.

The Guaraná plant contains guaranine, a substance that chemically resembles caffeine and so acts as a stimulant. Like many caffeine-containing plants, it is used for drinks; a kind of soft drink that is made from the Guaraná fruit is known as "Guaraná". Guarana contains a compound called Methylxanthine, the source of its energy boosting properties.

Numerous different brands of Guarana are available, differing greatly in flavour, some of them tasting hardly like natural Guarana fruit. Guarana soft drinks are particularly popular in Brazil, where sales are second only to cola drinks. They are typically fizzy and sweet, with a very fruity aftertaste. Most Guaraná is produced in Brazil and consumed either in Brazil or in nearby countries, such as Paraguay. Major brands in Brazil include Guaraná Antarctica and Guaraná Brahma from AmBev, Kuat from The Coca-Cola Company, besides local producers. There are a number of other energy drinks containing Guaraná available worldwide, including Golly Guaraná, 180, Bawls, Rockstar, AMP, V, SoBe, Guaraná Power, Mountain Dew MDX, Monster, Crunk!! Energy Drink, Von Dutch (Drink), Full Throttle, Vores Øl, and Molson Kick (the last two are beers). Actually, guarana is an extremely common ingredient in energy drinks. Some people see Guarana as an aphrodisiac.

A bad day ended with steamboat buffet.

2006-02-25T01:10:00.000+08:00

It's just another bad day today.I punctured a hole in my new linen shirt because MMU has stupid lecture seats.And i wore it only 3 times.Anyway, this morning i woke up and went out for class. There was this car opposite my house which was parked without wheels..Haha..and guess what, the wheels were stolen in the wee hours of the morning.Darn funny to see it resting on two bricks.I couldn't help but take a picture of it.How would you like waking up one morning only to notice the wheels of your car missing?

Things to do when you lose your wheels.
1. Freak out and yell as if the car is missing instead?
2. Say 'Oh great, i dun have wheels so let's go back to sleep.'
3. Send the picture message of your car with the missing wheels to your boss and get an off day.
4. Call JRD to order new sport rims.
5. Start pressing your neighbours doorbells and ask 'Hey, did you take my wheels?'

Advice
Never leave ur wheels unattended.

In the afternoon i went for lunch with my dear friend who just arrived from Brazil plus all her friends.Then she showed me some interesting brazillian girls pics.It's been a year since i last saw her. Went for steamboat buffet in the evening.So we all started cooking while standing.Remember to bring gloves whenever you eat at Malim Steamboat.We ate, ate, ate and ate till we were so filled.Nice dinner.Here are some pictures of us.

Esper, Ling, Mauricio,Greg and Esmie.

Esmie bought some unique bottled drinks for me from Brazil. =)Thankss..!

We have to live according to God's plan and purpose. It's never easy, when you just can't explain why you just don't feel good. Things are getting lousy nowadays. The past keeps coming back again, it's like a flash show that really kills your inner self and drains all your energy. Hear me dear God, show me my purpose for living and give me the strenght to face it.

I just feeling like running to nowhere.Running to somewhere out there on a straight road leading miles away, never looking back..Tire myself out and just drop by the roadside waiting for some passerby to say 'how do ya do?'.If there is no one there, then what's next? Just sit there and wait..Psalms 27 gives you the assurance no matter what what you are feeling..

This flash never fails to cheer me up.It's so cute.I hope it does the same to you too.. Have a fun and a great day alright!Live life as if they were your last..

Night Of Celebration 4 coming soon.

It's V-daY!

2006-02-14T01:49:00.001+08:00

Wheee~~!
V-day just started.I was talking to a guy friend earlier during countdown for Vday.So we were talking about how things were going on in uni and people we see and meet. So we were sitting by the seaside talking and all..Hm...a lot of stuffs are happening lately. We ate hakka dishes too, hakka bee hoon and those small 'round yam stuffs' i think it's called 'suan pan ze'.

There was this friend who asked me what to do on Vday.What can i say as a guy?Guys are mean cold blooded monsters because a girl would find it hard to melt a guys heart.. xP Nah. It isn't true, sweet simply hand made stuffs might do the trick. During class I was wondering what would i do myself.It doesn't matter to me cause i'm not celebrating it by the way.Planning ahead is always good rite.Finally,I was thinking of this stupid made up conversation between a couple..It goes something like this.It was the evening on Valentine's day..and so the story goes.

A Valentine's Story.
*knock, doors open*
Guy: Hey cupcake, *hugz*...whee..
Girl: Hey honeypie~! I've been missin you all day in class..
Guy: Oh really, you were distracting me too coz you were running through my thoughts. xP
Girl: XP you know i run well don't you?*lame, like how gals are usually like*
*both sat down talking*
Guy: Are you tired dear?You've been attending class the whole day..And i couldn't fetch you from class earlier..*puppy eyes*
Girl: It's alright, i have legs to walk home you know..You'll have to fetch me for the next whole trimester then. =(
Guy: Hmm...Why do I have to?
*girl whacks the dumb guy with full force*
Guy: Alrite alrite, i will..I'm so tired after a long day in class.But whenever i see you, you never failed making my day brighter.
Girl: Oww...that so sweet of you..Muaks..
Guy:I forgot to take something down from the car boot..Could you take it down for me..?
Girl:Oh what is it? Is it something for me?
Guy: Nah it isn't...I have other 'plans' you know...heh heh...
*girl walks up to the car and opens the boot*
Girl: Oh my gosh, they are so pretty...*grabs the bouquet of roses*
*guy pretending to look at her pictures on the walls and girl walks in*
to add more effect..*cannon is playing in the background..hah*
Guy:Baby, have you gotten what you are suppose to have?*sniles*
Girl: Yea, they are pretty...but..there is..1, 2 , 3 ,4, er...11 stalks of roses..Why is there 11 and not 12?
Guy: Er...because flowers are expensive and i only had money for 11..HEhe...grins..
Girl: GRrr....But a dozen would seem more complete..
Guy: Haha...Nah i was joking okay..11 means that there is one missing and the missing one is you..You're my sweet rose okay..
Girl: *blush!*You've got a good sense of humour huh..
Guy: You only noticed it a minute ago?What a waste to what i did for the past few years.
Girl: Haha...no la...You're the sweetest person i've ever met..Come..Take this..
*guy takes a piece of paper and unwraps it.*
*It say, go to the fridge and open the freezer to find your next clue*
Guy: What's this?
Girl: It's a treasure hunt you dumbo..
Guy: It seems too easy for me..Blah..
*guy walks to the fridge and it says there with magnets ' I LOVE YOU', the guy is touched and proceeds with the next clue*
Girl:What do you think? Isn't it a little different this year?I've just thought of that earlier..
Guy:Yes it is..I wonder what i would get in the end..to go home?
next clue...*what's under something that would talk with electricity?*
Guy: It's either a radio or a television..I know okay..I'm smart as you know..
*the guy is an engineer wannabe and he's not dumb! haha*
Girl:YEa yea..cut that crap..just proceed will ya..
Guy: okay okay fine...
*the guy takes out the clue and it says*
*PLease on the vcd and watch it*
*So guy turns on the vcd and watch it, and they sat together by the way*
Guy: Dear, where do you have the time to make this cute slide show?
*it's a recorded clip of the girl reciting a poem for the guy and ends up with another clue*
Girl: I wrote that poem you know..
*guy hugs the girl and gives her a peck on her cheek*
Guy:Alright let's look for the next clue together..
*The next clue was, the place i usually dream of you.*
*As guys are always straight they are also dumb at times, the guy frantically searches the couch*
Girl: Hey honeypie, this is not rite..think think...
Guy: It must be your room then..
*guy holds the girl's hand and walks quickly to her room,and when he open the room guess what*
Guy: Wow...I never knew it's this nice..I really can't feel the ground because I'm like flying without wings engulfed in your love..All the candles..The table..the wordings on the walls
Girl: Yea we're gonna have a candlelit dinner dear..And i spent the whole afternoon preparing this..I made your favourite fruitcake too..plus the pasta too ..It's really a simple meal though.
Guy: It doesn't matter..It's the heart that counts.
*the guy piggybacks her to her chair and pulls it*
Girl: Let's try what i made alright..
*ballads playing in the background, guy giving a portion to her and etc...*
Girl: How is it?Is it nice?
Guy:Er...Do I have a choice?haha..
Girl: Dumbo...No you don't.. *sulks*
Guy:Honey it's great okay..And not just the food.The whole thing you've done.It made Valentine's Day so special..I hope everyday would be valentine's day.
Girl: As i know, everyday has been Valentine's Day, we'ce done so much together rite?
Guy: You bet.
*continues talking about their dreams, childhood, friends and experiences*
*an hour passed, with ballads playing int he background*
Guy: Would you like to dance?
Girl: Sure, this really reminds me of the first time you asked me during our high school prom..Silly you, i cold feel your cold hands trembling..
Guy:Hey, I was afraid alright, you were the hottest among all the other girls and all the other guys were staring at me.
Girl:*giggles*
*music continued playing in the background*
Guy:It's been a long time since we last dance rite?You've improved..A lot..
Girl: Yeah that was a year ago..I went for dancing lessons alright and i don't step on your feet anymore..
*the slowdance went on for an hour till it's late*
Guy:Dear, I wrote this poem for you..
*guy starts reciting it*
Guy:
My dear Valentine,
How could I compare thee,
With the riches of the earth,
Even the stars, would look down in envy,
Having you this near,
Makes my heart skip a beat,

My lovely Valentine,
I could never express to you,
How my much you mean to me,
Words are only so limited to me,
To describe what i feel,
My actions, is all I could only show.

My sweet Valentine,
Little things you do,
Sweet words and golden smiles,
Make me love you more,
With this day passing,
My love would always remain true.
Girl:Dear, did you write that yourself?
Guy:Yes i did, it all seems so natural to write.Because it all came from my heart..
Girl:*smiles*
Guy:*smiles*
*the night went on..with silence between them..music playing..*

THE END...

I would like to add that this story is not based on any person living or dead.Any similarities are purely coincidental because i wrote it spontaneously even the poem..So people, this seems so much like a fairy tale story.But i wouldn't say it can't happen.I've seen a few of near perfet couples who love each other so much and they would find so many ways to make each other feel appreciated, not only on Valentine's Day but every other day.Actually, i was thinking a little about it like what i said earlier in the post.But anyway, I just wanted to add more to whatever i felt like.This story is not an emo story okay..So dun call me emo for it.It's just a story depicting what a happy couple would do on Vday..Halfway through the story, I felt like substituting the guy with the girl because i felt that the girl had one too much for Vday..I would be sweeter if the guy would have done all of that rite?And generally, i would admit that guys are soemtimes to macho or to lazy to do such things..they just bring the girl to a cafe or something order, pay, leave and call it a day.*i hear mean girls cheering*

Wishing all of you out there a Happy Vday..!

Chinese New Year is gonna be over!

2006-02-12T01:50:00.000+08:00

*A lot of photos..Please wait patiently. ^^" *

Chinese new year was so good, but it's all coming to an end.. =( I have posted quite a lot of photos below.Just take a loook. On the first day, there was the usualy family gathering but this year was a little different. We had fireworks to light compared to the usual super long red firecrackers. And to have the honour of lighting it up, you have to pay nearly RM400 for it. So on the first day of new year, we lit the skies with colour.Haha..I was too near the fireworks so i couldn't get good pictures on it..I was so near it that i could feel particles falling from the sky due to the fireworks. What a waste i coldn't get good pictures...Next year i would stand further away.

Marching towards the field to light the fireworks.

Was standing too close to get a good shot.

I like this the most.GRrr...I was too near so i can't get the background.

After fireworks we had our family photo.So we spent the whole time taking photos after photos.
This years gathering was small. 5 other cousins couldn't join us. And 1 silly cousin crashed his one month old Mitsubishi Lancer ont he way back from singapore.Dumbo..

Cousins united.

Dear cousins that came back to their 'kampung'..

We went for pool later that night, so I could say that we were having fun during new year.Haha...that was for the first few days when things are a little more happening..Before we went to poke balls..like how we say it in cantonese.WE went to 'yam cha' at a place which is of a higher class than the mamak stall..Representing the picture below.Anyway we were good kids..so we spend most of our time playing pool.

Jinshan & Anthony.

Anthony & me.

A 'Yum Cha' place we went..a place to drink long island tea also..

So that's the story of the first day of CNY, then comes the the other days..where my other relatives came back from Singapore.I just can't understand why 80% of all my relatives are singaporeans..Kiasu people..One of my friend says that it's not because they are kiasu, it's just that "Singaporeans are systematic in the things they do and they have the initiative to ask, not like Malaysians." nonsence..

The next few days was visiting, met old friends and talked and eat..It was great meeting old old friends from school.So as a yearly affair, we would gather at sook yee's house to chill.Usually my friends would play card and all but jared, karyn, lei yoon and me left early..We went ot another friends house..and it was cards again..I'm no good in cards.But anyway just to have fun and all i donated a bit of cash. And i think i won back wat i donated a few days later.

Friends at sook yee's house..

High tech Ah Kong & Ah Ma.

As i said, we left early and we went to the other house..And there it was cards and now, mahjong also they play..There were like 20 people in the house at 1 am in the morning.On the way there, karyn wanted to drive my car so badly..But little did she new that she had to step on the clutch before engaging a gear..Karyn..WAt's ur problem lA!! Xp..And Jared told me about the wine thing in the car..Haha..

Gathering of old school friends..And there is Jared, my best buddies who is still around.

Below is suppose to be a stone face photo..WE tried like 10 times but some people just can't get their faces stoned.HAha..

Failed stone face picture..

After that it was 'yum cha' again before going home..So, is my new year happening? Just a little I guess..xP

Besides that, i went to Watercity to kai kai and all with my uncles..and visited a few other friends the next few days..And did a lot a lot a lot of other stuffs..But i'm not gonna post any..My friend once said..Why u write so many personal stuffs...So to answer that question..Not all are written..Some are written a lot are kept..KEkee......Before CNY, i went to port dickson with my church cell people..I will be posting more on it later..See ya..

NOC intensive week is over..

2006-01-24T02:25:00.000+08:00

The whole of last week was the NOC intensive week. So everyone was waking up for devotion at 9am and practice till late at night.I did ntg much the whole week.But it has been tiring. The company of the cfers were great. A good time to talk to each other and get to know each other better. I'll be going to Port dickson tmr.. yaY...*jumps around*

I hope port dickson would be great..It won't be as nice a redang btw.Staying at a place called Glory Beach Resort at tanjung gemuk. *wat a name* And on top of that, we've got a great deal on the accomodation. It's suppose to be a church cell thingie, but the rest of our cell are not going.Anyway, we'll be getting the whole 2 room apartment for only Rm110 a night. =)

I miss everyone in NOC..Miss the fun, miss the people, miss the place..Chinese new year is coming soon so there will be lots of food.Whee.. Below are some pictures from the intensive week.

Everyone waiting patiently outside the centre.

Working together.

Practice..

2006-01-19T19:41:00.000+08:00

Tired..Noc is coming soon.I'm playing a small part in it. By the way, God with His all sufficient grace and mercy provides us with the strength to carry on. I'm truly thankful that I was given the opportunity to serve God even in this small way. I pray that everything will go well for it. I saw this forwarded to me earlier. I feel like sharing this.

Forgive
The more grudges you carry, the heavier your burden becomes. Forgive, and let them go.
When someone has wronged you, it hurts. There is certainly no sense in using your own time and energy to prolong that hurt.

Forgive, and you can begin to move away from the pain. Forgive, and you can move forward with a much lighter load.
Forgiveness does not mean that you allow others to take advantage of you. On the contrary, forgiveness gives you positive power no matter what others may have done.
Anger and spite can eat away at life until there's almost nothing of value left. Forgive, and free yourself from the grips of that anger.
Forgive, and you'll be much better off. Forgive, and you'll be free to truly live.

All you people out there, take care and keep yourself occupied if you are still having holidays. Will be posting more when there are more happenings.Ta..
