Change your world tour was held at the Sunway Convention Centre on the 4th of September 2010 from 6 pm till 10.30pm. Want to know more about it? Please log on to www.changeyourworld.com.my or you can check it out on facebook.

How did I end up in the changeyourworld tour?

When my cell group leader informed us about change your world tour, I was initially very excited about it especially watching some videos during the quest. However, when I got my trial exam timetable, I was worried and after planning out my study schedule, the whole idea of going for the tour just immediately disappeared. "Okay, I have a month left to study and I am not going to waste anymore time,"I thought to myself. Seize every moment was my motto then. When I was suppose to let my CG leader know whether I am going for it, I said no. And again she asked me for the last time a week after that, i insisted to not go for it. 2 days before the tour, Amanda, a friend of mine asked me whether I was going for it, and again my answer was no. She said she was going to buy the tickets, but I declined her offer.

On Saturday, I did my devotion before going to church. And after hearing from my mom on the phone, my heart sank. Part of me didn't want to go to church. However, I made it to church with some worries in my mind. As my youth pastor, Pastor Matt went up to the stage and asked us to pray for God to speak to us even as we were going to watch a video about the mission trip to Cambodia. I prayed in tongues, and God just spoke to me. Tears rolled down from the corner of my eyes and as we watched the video, a voice in me asked me to go for the tour. I was like," What? I declined 3 times when my CG leader and my friend asked me to go. " I knew, it was God's voice. He said," Yes! Go!" I was like," Oh come on, even if I want to go, there wouldn't be any tickets left for me. Forget it." But God told me to ask my leader. I was afraid because I had said no for so many times. So at the end of the session, I told my best friend, Hilary that I want to go for it. So I dared myself to ask Andrew, my leader. He said," Yes, there are tickets!"I was like ," Wow! " Great, I didn't bring my purse which means I have no money with me. God sent Hilary who lent the money to me for the tickets. Great! Everyone is going there by bus, what about me? God gave me a space in the bus-not that it was full. Of course, my mom said yes to free me to go for it. Bearing in mind that it was at Sunway Convention Centre, I have not told my mom about the tour before I made the spontaneous decision, I had no transport, no money...

And God told me that when you obey me, I will do the rest for you. And true enough He did it. I had my mom's permission and she was willing to fetch me back pretty late. I had money for the ticket fare, I had transport to and fro, I did not regret going for the tour because I was truly inspired to take ownership of my country, Malaysia.

So what did I learn from this?
I learned 2 things:

To trust in the Lord and obey Him. He will direct our paths. This was one of the things that I was praying for- God will stretch my faith in Him to greater heights and He answered my prayer.My faith was tested to believe in Him even though I don't know what the outcome will be like. I dared myself to say yes to God and God planned everything for me after that.
From the tour, I learned that we should take ownership of our nation. Many of the young people including myself, honestly want to leave this country and get education from overseas and work there. However, when YB Hannah said once again to all of us that we don't belong there, we are not from that country, we are migrants , these words stuck me because they were so true. We are born in Malaysia and we are Malaysians! Like it or not, this is our land. And how are we to change our land? Read the news and start praying for the specific needs in our land, don't be an ignorant anymore. She said, " God will hold us accountable for our land because He has placed us here so that we will pray for our land." These words struck me.

After this tour, I have made a decision to change. And just so you know, it is NOT an overnight thing! So, please don't expect me to make a 180 degrees change *da da the new Erin!* No such thing! I am still learning and asking God to change and mould me. =)

To all of you out there, 2 ways you can help to change our nation is to change yourself and start to speak life to our nation (positive things). Our tongue is a very powerful weapon, it can either destroy or build one's life. So in this case, let us speak life to our land!

Change your world. You make the difference. =)
Jesus loves you. Have a nice day.

Tomorrow's the day when we step down from CF Board 2009/2010 and wish all the best to the next board stepping up. Wow! Time flies, doesn't it? It had already been 1 year. I will not exchange these lessons I have learned during that period of time for something else. Anyway, I really really want to thank God for all that He has done in my life, holding my hands and walking through this journey with me.

Anyway, trial exam is in a month's time. I planned my study schedule but I did not follow it lately as there was a lot to do... Tuition-ing, finishing up their homework and school's homework, taking naps- I can't study without taking a nap first, etc... the list goes on. Man! How hectic can city life be? Will it be any better if I had never been in this city? Will I be less competitive? Maybe. But life still goes on right since I can't change the fact that I'm in this world that is full of stress and worries. Even people go crazy suddenly... it's pretty normal. With this tension and this world to cope with, I won't be surprised when people my age or even younger to go crazy and be out of their mind.

But I am very thankful to be the chosen one-to know who Jesus is. Because I believe that He can heal and He is the Healer and Restorer of our body, soul and spirit.

Isaiah 40:31 But those who wait on the Lord
Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary ,
They shall walk and no faint.
This is what God has promised us in His words. Meditate on it and be blessed!

Got to run. It's study time...

Memory

2010-08-15T03:19:00.000-07:00

It has been ages since I posted something here.

I have been in CF for almost 5 years and this is my last year.

In form 1, I was just like the form 1s now. So innocent. Haha. Maybe even more innocent than them. Or maybe I should say naive. Whatever it is, it was fun and learned a lot form there.
In form 2, Cf has become a place I belong. The friends I made in CF, some lasted until now; some were just hi-and-bye friends.
In form 3, I felt so encouraged by the encouragement cell. I've got littles notes which encouraged me especially when coming close to PMR.
In form 4, I had my best CF Camp ever! Like really!
In form 5, I've learned how to handle difficult situations, rely on God even more for whatever that may come by and to pray even more fervently, to submit to authority, to get ideas from others, and how to stay as a team. I can honestly say that I did not do what I ought to do and did what I ought not to do.

Would I come back for Form 6 for all these regrets? The answer is: No, I wouldn't by God's grace. I know I haven't done enough or up to any standards that you may have placed on us as leaders, but I am sure I have learned something from here and by God' help will not repeat it again.

I will move on from where I am now but will always remember where I came from.
We're stepping down soon. And soon, the new board will step up. I pray hard that God's anointing and power will rest upon each one of them and to serve the Lord with all their hearts. By God's grace, they will bring revival to our CF and shine even brighter for Christ. And to always remember that God will NEVER condemn them for whatever they have done wrong because Jesus was condemned for us 2000 years ago. My best wishes.

mmhmmm

2010-06-12T20:52:00.000-07:00

Okay... Holidays are gonna end soon. Not now but soon! XD I've not been productive for the first week. I just couldn't hold a book and sit still for more than 5 minutes. I wonder how did i do it during exam period.. But i managed to read a real life story book-- No Safe Place by Emily Christie.
What she'd been through was TORMENTING! As I read it, I feel like vomiting. My stomach went upside down. =S By the way, it's about this young girl who was sexually abused by her grandad for 9 years.

Other than that, something else happened last week... It was great that he was understanding =)
But I guess it's another lesson to learn for me. The last thing I want to do is to break someone's heart... *I'm sorry...*

Erm...1 more week to go. *sniff*

The Last Song

2010-05-03T06:12:00.000-07:00

Okay, let's just say I have 2 more weeks till my exams start. *rolls eyes*
You might be thinking, why The Last Song? So, let me explain. Yesterday, I cried almost the whole day and your first reaction will be: why? what happened? Unless I told you why, you will ask me that.

Ehehe... It's a romance novel by Nicholas Sparks, thanks to Esther, I practically got hooked up by his novels. Mainly because they are sweet, amusing, and yet tragic.

This is one of the many books I like! Other than The Rescue. I didn't thought A Walk to Remember was that tragic or sad mostly because Esther was rushing me to read till the part where it was *SAD*. And I didn't really felt much then. Rushing is never a good policy.

I learned a lot of new words from this book-The Last Song. Haha! I was proving to my mom that reading this while exams is in 2 weeks time will help me to widen my vocabulary. So, I did my notes while crying- How weird, Yew Leung would say.

Just so you know, it's coming out as a movie in June? July? Around there. So, if you think you'll like romance stories, do go ahead and browse through his books; find one that you may like. =)

Love Is Not a Fight

2010-04-25T07:59:00.000-07:00

Love is not a place, to come and go as we please.
It's a house we enter in,
And then, commit, to never leave.
So lock the door behind you, throw away the key,
We'll work it out together,
Let it bring us, to our knees.

Love is a shelter, in a raging storm,
Love is peace, in a middle of a war,
And if we try to leave,
May God send angels guard the door,
No, love is not a fight...
But it's something worth fighting for.

To some love is a word, that they can fall into,
But when they're falling out,
Keeping their word is hard to do.

Love is a shelter, in a raging storm,
Love is peace, in a middle of a war,
And if we try to leave,
May God send angels guard the door,
No, love is not a fight...
But it's something worth fighting for.

Love will come to save us, if we'll only call,
He will ask nothing from us,
But demand we give our all.

Love is a shelter, in a raging storm,
Love is peace, in a middle of a war,
And if we try to leave,
May God send angels guard the door,
No, love is not a fight...
But it's something worth fighting for.

I will fight for you,
Would you fight for me?
It's worth fighting for

Life in school these days are getting more exciting-- don't ask me why, because honestly I don't really know. Somehow, I'm just looking forward to school; even though some days could be tiring, stressful or unproductive. I've realised that the people in my class have changed-not physically disfigured or what but they have grown up, I mean we have grown up!

Hormones have changed; our desires have changed; our thinking have changed...

I could vividly replay those days when I was a thirteen; just graduated from my elementary school; afraid of the future yet daring myself to venture into the unknown. I would say it was a good start of my high school life. I remember those days in the afternoon session, I long for the day to rain because it was so hot! I could still remember the smell of the classroom, the events happening... Those were my days...

Now, when I see the younger ones--the form 1s, they remind me of the day I stepped into SMK Taman SEA, so innocent yet deep down wanting something to change; wanting fame and popularity; wanting to be sought after especially by the seniors in school. Obviously, that did not happen. I would say I was just another ordinary girl in high school then, mixing only with the people I've known from primary school.

I could positively know how they(Form 1s, especially the girls) are now feeling... They want a CHANGE in their life! They don't want to be the same old person anymore! They want to be accepted, cared for, loved by someone... As a matter of fact, EVERYONE wants that!

I am glad to have a mom who always reminds me that Jesus loves me. And she always tells me that Jesus heals your broken hearts, cares for you... It somehow made me feel important. I thank God that I went for CF and mixed with a hard-working bunch of friends! Friend plays an important role in our lives; they either come along side you, embracing you or condemn you.

Jesus, as our Saviour and Friend will never condemn you rather He will help you throughout your whole life here on planet Earth!

HOW GREAT IS OUR GOD!

Focus on Christ

2010-03-17T07:05:00.000-07:00

Wow! I can't believe CF Camp just over. It's my last CF camp. I would say it was an awesome experience and I had a new and fresh encounter with God. God has taught me a lot through planning this camp.

One day before the camp started, some complications occurred. I was so stressed up as we were suppose to be getting ready to leave for PH on that day itself to prepare the place for camp. It was then, the Holy Spirit reminded me to come before the Lord and seek His face. Yes indeed! God knocked me hard on my head saying," Why are you relying on your own strength? You have an Almighty God who made the heavens and the earth. Is anything too hard for Me?" I cried even more to God and poured out all the problems to Him and one by one, problems were all settled. Later, I found myself sitting in the car going up to PH.

Once we reached there, we were welcomed by the cool breeze. It wasn't as cold as I thought it would be. It was just right. We did whatever that was necessary and ' jammed'.

The next few days experience was tremendous. God continued to be faithful and true. He revealed Himself in many ways, hearts were touched, lives were changed. I believe that God has pulled me through all these to tell me that- Apart from Him, I am nothing. I really want to thank God for all that He had done for me; for affirming me with words of encouragement and has always been there for me.

Isaiah 41:13 " For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you."

I want to urge all of you who may be facing some difficulties in life, fix your eyes on Jesus and He will lead you and guide you all the days of your life. =)

God is good! All the time!

Today was a fairytale

2010-03-07T06:38:00.000-08:00

Today was a fairytale
You were the prince
I used to be a damsel in distress
You took me by the hand and you picked me up at six
Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale
I wore a dress
You wore a dark grey t-shirt
You told me I was pretty when I looked like a mess
Today was a fairytale
Time slows down whenever you're around

But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale

Today was a fairytale
You've got a smile that takes me to another planet
Every move you make everything you say is right
Today was a fairytale
Today was a fairytale
All that I can say is it's getting so much clearer
Nothing made sense until the time I saw your face

Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around
Yeah yeah

But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale

Time slows down whenever you're around
I can feel my heart
It's beating in my chest
Did you feel it?
I can't put this down

But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
But can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale

God proved Himself real...

2010-03-06T04:40:00.000-08:00

Is anything too hard for God?

On 25th February, when I was doing my quiet time (time set aside for God), this was the title in my devotion material for that day. The verse taken was from Jeremiah 32:27. It says, " Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh, Is there anything too hard for Me?"
I felt that it was very timely when i read this passage because i was stressed up by the upcoming camps. It seemed God was so real!

Yesterday, He proved Himself real to me AGAIN when one of the teachers spoke on this topic " Is anything too hard for the Lord?" It was reaffirming me to put my trust in Him and to be dependent on Him instead of on my own strength.

I really want to thank God for sustaining me all this while. I would have broken down if Jesus did not help me and encourage me through His Word.

So i would like to encourage all of you out there, " Is anything too hard for Jesus to handle?" The answer is NO, THERE ISN'T. You can put your trust in Him, and He will handle it for you- all of it. Just rest in Him and know that He is enough for you. XD Jesus loves you very much; more than anyone else could.

Awesome possum!

2010-02-25T02:24:00.004-08:00

Went to school. Lessons were quite relaxing today, since there weren't much teaching today. We only had Bio class today, oh and English... The rest of the time, we were either chatting away or went to look for teacher or recess... That was because our teacher didn't come to class for the first 2 periods, then the teachers had a farewell brunch with a retiring teacher (during extended recess). Lastly, we had add maths for the last 2 periods and he didn't teach. So, i guess you get the idea...

Furthermore, there's no school tomorrow. I mean the building will be still there, but we are on public holiday tomorrow. Hooray!!! Another long weekend. Awesome possum!

Paper cut

2010-02-24T05:43:00.000-08:00

*sigh*
reached into my bag and got a paper cut.

Life's just miserable these days. Overwhelmed with emotions... Today is just so weird...
Will tomorrow be the same?

Two Is Better Than One

2010-02-14T01:39:00.000-08:00

I remember what you wore on the first day

You came into my life and I thought hey, you know it could be something
'Cause everything you do and words you say
You know that it all takes breath away, and now I'm left with nothing

'Cause maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time,
To figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember every look upon your face
The way you roll your eyes, the way you taste
You make it hard for breathing
'Cause when I close my eyes and drift away
I think of you and everything's okay
And finally now, we're leaving

'Cause maybe it's true, that I can't live without you
Well maybe two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking two is better than one

I remember what you wore on the first day
You came into my life and I thought hey

Maybe it's true that I can't live without you
Maybe two is better than one
There's so much time to figure out the rest of my life
And you've already got me coming undone
And I'm thinking

Oooh that I can't live without you
'Cause baby two is better than one
There's so much time, to figure out the rest of my life
And I've figured out with all that's said and done
Two, is better than one

Two is better than one

I've been singing this song since Joshua started it... Poor Esther, she's been listening to me singing all day long. I guess she's thanking God for holiday! Haha!

Blood Test

2010-01-29T06:21:00.001-08:00

Hey all,
Man! I've been going online almost the whole week... I'll promise i'm going to stop this habit and get back to my studies...

Anyways, we did BLOOD TEST yesterday in school. So fun yet so pain- at least when my friend poked me the first time. Quite interesting; I seem to like Biology now.. Hehe

So, guess what was my blood group? *Drum Rolls* I am an O+! Haha! I am so proud of that, I am an universal donor.. XD There are 2 guys from my class who are O- which are very rare. They call themselves special. I have to agree with that, they are in their own way. Haha...

That's about it,
bye...

speechless

2010-01-27T03:29:00.000-08:00

Why do we cry sometimes?
Is it because we are sad or is it because we are crying out of joy?

Just a random thought... XD

Terrified- Katharine McPhee

2010-01-26T03:01:00.000-08:00

You by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You're the thing that's right

Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life

This could be good
It's already better than that
And nothing's worse than knowing you're holding back

I could be all that you needed
If you let me try

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love (I'm in love)
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life

I only said it
'Cause I mean it (ohhhh)
I only mean it
' Cause it's true (ohhhh)

So don't you tear
What I've been dreaming
'Cause it keeps me up
It holds me close
Whenever I'm without you

You said it again
My heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watchin' the shadows burnin' in the dark

And I-I-I'm in love (I'm in love)
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life, life

I like this song... but it makes me tear more...

=(

2010-01-25T02:18:00.000-08:00

It has been quite some time since I posted something here...
So here it is...

In school, I guess I was on autopilot mode... I was not really functioning and things just didn't feel right. I was distracted somehow. I felt sad. It's hard to explain- as if part of me has been taken away.

Whatever it is, my dear friend, especially Esther who sits next to me, bear with me for a while- maybe it's some hormonal changes. Hehe..

1st week of school...

2010-01-08T06:53:00.000-08:00

The 1st week of school is finally over. What a week?! Okay, let me tell you all what I did in school...

Monday- I was late for CF morning prayer! It was way too early to wake up at 6.30 am! Then, we went to our new class! I like the view actually... Nothing much changed, all of us are still in our cliques. =) Not surprised. After school, I had to stay back for leader's meeting...
A lot of planning to do- So, at the end of the day, I cried out, " Oh Lord, please help me to go through this year! " After saying that, I felt a great relief in my heart.
Tuesday- I was a little earlier for CF morning prayer. Yay! Nothing much happened in class... Oh, we had Program Maju Diri- quite interesting. I am Investigative and Social! Woah! I didn't know that... Stayed back again for recess meeting! So adorable- the little Form 1 students. Haha! Way tired, I was way too tired for anything after that..
Wednesday- Was LATE for CF morning prayer meeting again! Man! When am I gonna get used to waking up early for school?! * Forward to after school... Guess what? Yup, you're right! I stayed back again for girl guides meeting! Gosh! I was so overwhelmed that day! I broke down in the end... *sigh* The worst part was- it was my mom's birthday, but i had a long face... In the end I prayed again, " Lord, I cast all my cares to you." Once again, I felt a relief!
Thursday- Finally! It's Thursday. Didn't stay back in school... Wasn't feeling so stress and tensed. Decided to wake up at 4.30 am for church morning prayer..
Friday- Guess what? I woke up at 4.30 am!!! Haha! Thank God. =) In school, i learned how to write a resume and the difference between a curriculum vitae and a resume. XD

The rest .... They are in God's hands! ^^ Jesus loves you! You're the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

bye...

Blessed New Year!

2009-12-31T22:47:00.000-08:00

Let's go back time... *Rewind* *Pause* *Play*
31st Dec 2009
30th DUMC Anniversary Celebration & watchnight!
At 6pm, many people arrived in church. We were all getting ready to celebrate God's goodness and faithfulness throughout the year 2009. We had 'makan' time together (not that i ate =[ ) then prepared for the awesome worship together!
The 7 of us (dancers) were getting real excited and a little nervous as there were more than 2500 people present in the auditorium. Wow! That's a lot of people! Thank God for strength! I was hungry when pastor was speaking. >.<
Then, we had countdown! Blessed New Year! =)

1st Jan 2010
It's gonna be a fantastic year! =)

Christmas Day...

2009-12-30T05:04:00.000-08:00

Before the year 2009 comes to an end, let me tell you how I celebrated my Christmas.. I know it's a little late, better late than never...

Early in the morning on Christmas day, I woke up with my blurry eyes and I saw Santa! Haha (Just joking>.<) Well, I got myself ready for church. Why early in the morning? Because it's not late in the evening.. Gave my Christmas gifts to my friends... Lalalalalalala...By the way, 3 persons whom I know of celebrated their birthday on Christmas- my brother, my brother-in-law and guess who's the other one... Yes, you're right! Jesus! I almost forgot... ehehe XP We celebrated Jesus' birthday in church then my 2 important family members' birthday in Riblee's!

* Forward to pictures...
I really want this for my wedding bouquet! by the way, it's my Christmas prezzie for my friends. XP

My Family... Aloha!
The 2 birthday boys!

2010

2009-12-29T01:55:00.000-08:00

Hmmm...
Next year will be my last year in high school- I really hope! I don't want to do Form 6!
Next year, there will be more responsibilities for me. I need to study, and juggle my other duties, be it in CF, be it in Girl Guides, be it as a dancer, even more as a daughter, a sister and a child of God. Wow! That's a lot of things to do. LOL.

Sometimes, these things scare me... There are so much to do, but I need to remember that I have a BIG God who helps me and cares for me. I definitely do not know my future like some of my friends do; they know what they're going to do in the future, which college they'll go, what courses to take, which part of the globe they'll further their studies in... But I, I do not know, all I know is my God holds my future and in Him, my life will find its full purpose and meaning.

So, I want to encourage those who are like me; who doesn't know what they're going to do in the future. Remember there's a God- His name is Jesus. In Him, you can find hope. In Him, you'll find joy and peace. In Him, you'll find your full meaning in life. Do not worry about your future, or to be more realistic- SPM (Doesn't mean I don't worry at all, but I know who I can go to when I'm feeling stress- Jesus, my Prince of Peace). There's nothing impossible with God. He is the God of possibles! Amen? Haha. XD

Okay.. That's about it. Go 2010! Then, I finally can drive! - Can't wait for it! Hehe XP

Elevate Camp 2009!

2009-12-20T04:51:00.000-08:00

This year's XYZ Camp was not only different but anointed! Indeed, it was like what Pastor Foo had said, God is full of surprises! ELEVATE is our theme for year 2010. That's why our camp is called Elevate! It was a 4 days 3 nights camp held at Port Dickson.

16th Dec 09
It was the first day of camp. I was feeling quite tired as I didn't have a good sleep few days before. However, my heart was looking forward for camp as I know there's something great and exciting that God has installed for me. I was singing "Take Me Deeper" by City Harvest Church while going to Dream Center. After registration, I found out that I was a group leader. My instant response was, " Aww man!"- because being a leader is NOT easy! Oh well, I can't change it, so i lived with it.
*Forward to arrival in Le Paris Hotel*
We did what we had to do, lunch, check in, etc... Then, we had to prepare for talent time! I never liked Talent Time, especially when you're the leader. So, things went a little messy as usual because not only we were running out of time, we were running out of creativity. My heart was troubled, feeling stress and most of all my body was tired- I can't really focus on what my members were saying... Whatever it was, the 2 precious hours went by.
*Forward to Session 1*
I liked the worship, really moved by the song "Take me Deeper". That is when God spoke to me, " Do not worry, I am with you. Surrender all your cares to Me. The camp is not about you, it's about Me." I just surrendered all the burdens of being a games group leader to Jesus and I felt such a relief. Pastor Julie was our camp speaker! Really thank God for her! The session was clear and anointed. God just began to speak to me...
*Forward to Before Lights Out*
Ate maggee mi in my room... XD

17th Dec 09
Rise and shine!
*Forward to Session 2*

God spoke to me again. This is so awesome! Then, Pastor Julie told all of us to pair up and pray in the Spirit. Then ask God what He wants to speak to our partners through us. So, this is what I saw:

A man was holding a child's hand walking on the beach. The man was the child's father, he was playing with him. Then, the child grew up to a teenager. The man became his best friend whom the teenager can share his secrets to. I saw another scene where the teenager grew to an adult. The man became someone whom he can depend on and run to.

I know that man was Jesus. I shared this with my partner and I hope that this really meant something to him.
* Forward to games*
It was fun and quite tiring. Oh, i got to swim!!! Haha! After so long, i finally got to swim! Anyways, I got many bruises for being so careless. XD Our team got 2nd for this game! Yay! Go AON! Thank God! We had quite a lot of time, so we practiced our talent time as it was right after dinner. Things went better, more organised. XD
*Forward to Talent Time*
Wow! It was unexpected! Our team was on time and quite funny to me. We were to promote frisbee in a train station. Other groups were funny too. I like Is a Bell- so creative!
*Forward to Maggee Moments*
Some of us from The Edge gathered together and ate maggee mi. We had bonding time, just that this time we couldn't stay up too late (outdoor). Guys like teddy bears too? Lolx.

18th Dec 09
Happy Sweet Sixteen Joel!
Session 3... The presence of the Holy Spirit was just so strong!!! We spoke in tongues and just 'soaked' in the presence of the Lord.
*Forward to CSI (game) *
I found that it was really not easy to solve a case even when you watch so many CSI shows. I was trying to think what would Calleigh do. But i guess i didn't really observe what they were doing. For one thing i know that i didn't apply what i saw! They went to the crime scene first while my team went to the suspects first. So silly! We got our facts partially correct, so not too bad...
*Forward to Session 4*
This session was awesome too! God challenged me to do something, by His help, I'll do it when the time comes. Something funny happened too- i thanked God my eyes were closed.
*Forward to CG time and Maggee Moments*
We drank William's sparkling juice!!! Nice wei! Hehe... Then i ate maggee mi with the other group. haha XD Then, we talked in the room till almost 3 am... Ehehe The hotel quite scary wan lo- Don't ever go to the 10th floor- no rooms, got baby cods, got music on level 13 when no one is there!

19th Dec 09
Session 5 was a wrap up. Simple yet interesting. After that, we had prize-giving session Guess what? We got 4th place!!! Yay! Thank God! He helped me =) He's so real. Then we had photo session, quick lunch then back to church!

In church
I was so tired- should have gone back. XD

I don’t know but, I think I maybe fallin’ for you,
Dropping so quickly, maybe I should keep this to myself
Waiting ’til I Know you better

I am trying not to tell you but I want to,
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So I’m hiding what I’m feeling
But I’m tired of holding this inside my head

I’ve been spending all my time just thinking about ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life ,and now I found ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

As I’m standing here, and you hold my hand
Pull me towards you, and we start to dance
All around us, I see nobody
Here in silence, It’s just you and me

I am trying not to tell you but I want to,
I’m scared of what you’ll say
So I’m hiding what I’m feeling
But I’m tired of holding this inside my head

I’ve been spending all my time just thinking about ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life ,and now I found ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’m fallin’ for you

Oh, I just can't take it, My heart's racin'
Emotions keep spinnin' out

I’ve been spending all my time just thinking about ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you
I’ve been waiting all my life ,and now I found ya
I don’t know what to do, I think I’m fallin’ for you

Movie Outing

2009-12-11T06:17:00.000-08:00

Okay... I went to watch New Moon anyway...
It was not that bad... Jacob is definitely hot! I mean Taylor Lautner, he's so much better than Robert! He can act, has more emotions, more buff and the list goes on...

That's about it...

The Edge 2009

2009-12-06T09:18:00.002-08:00

At first when I got the invitation card to this outreach event, I was quite worried as I already had many things taking place in my holiday schedule. I didn't know what to do. But as I prayed, I found that I really wanted to go for this event as I know it'll be a great experience... So, I decided to quit a dance performance for the Christmas production. I felt really bad because I've promised my leader that I can participate but then I quit. Thank God! She blessed me to go. Really wanna appreciate her too. So, I registered myself. XD

Basically, The Edge was separated into 2 parts. The 1st part was the training (29th Nov till 2nd Dec) and the 2nd part was the outreach at Bentong, Pahang (3rd Dec till 5th Dec).

On the 22nd of Nov, we were called for a briefing together with our parents. I was like,"Okay, maybe it'll be about telling us what to bring." But it wasn't just that! They told us that we had an assignment to do. We had to raise at least RM 15 worth of food for the Orang Asli village we are going to... The thing was, we cannot use our own pocket money to buy the food and we can't ask from our parents! I was like," Okay... Crap! How was I suppose to do that?! Especially when i won't be around for the next whole week-NSCFL camp... "

23rd-28th Nov *NSCFL Camp*

Here comes 29th Nov, we had an intro for The Edge before the training starts-which was the next day... The intro got me even more excited for the whole thing! However, I haven't raised the RM 15 worth of food. But that night, I asked someone and she said she'll help! I was so happy!

The next few days of training, everyone of us had to fast at least one meal for the next 3 days before outreach. I chose LUNCH! Hungry betul! But God gave me the strength I need to go through those 3 days. I've learned a lot from the 3 days of intensive training by Jody Counts (one of the YWAMers) such as hearing from God, obeying The Word, etc. We had our last supper before we left for the outreach. Ehehe... And of course, since this whole thing involved so many days, I've met wonderful friends and got to know some people better..

At 11++ PM on Wednesday (a day before going to Pahang), I called my cousin who was going to Australia on the 5th Dec. Because I won't be back on time to send her off.. She is my dearest cousin, and that'll tell you how much I'll miss her. We chatted on the phone and turned up that God made a way where there seems to be no way for me to see her before she leaves... She came to my house at 1++ AM and slept over!!! We talked for a while then we slept. Back of my mind, I was thinking," God gave me my hearts desire!" The next morning, I had to go to Pahang, this was the funny thing- instead of me sending my cousin off, she sent me off! Haha! XOXO

I was very sleepy!!! In the van, I wanted to sleep so much but the SUN wouldn't allow me to. It was glaring at me... However, God just gave me the strength I needed. When we arrived there, we played treasure hunt. At first when the officers said treasure hunt, I was like, " What?! We'd to find papers and clues in a place we were not familiar with?" But that was not it! We were told to pray and asked God to give us a vision of someone(what the person was wearing and what the person was going through in life). "Wow! This is the Edge."

I saw an Indian woman wearing a blue top and a green bottom, bunned up her hair feeling lonely-children left her in my vision. I wasn't quite sure about it. But whatever it was, we went as a small group and started finding our 'treasures' (each looking out for each others vision). Lo and behold! I saw the woman i saw in my vision. I was so excited, I grabbed Aileen's hand and ran towards that woman who was across the busy road. We confronted her, and told her about our activity. I asked her whether she felt lonely but she said no. Then I asked her whether she had any family problems. She said her brother-in-law's children left them. "Wow!" She also had high blood pressure... So, Aileen prayed for her in BM. * By the way, all of us had to learn how to pray in BM during training. NOT EASY!*

After that incident, my faith began to rise even more! After that, we had to unpack our stuff in the place we stay- awesome scenery, very cooling-unlike PJ!!! wonderful.(except for the insects).

The next thing on schedule was going to Kg Sg Dua for Home Visitation. We had to distribute the food we'd raised to the Orang Asli.. In the same time, share our testimonies with them... It was an eye-opener! They were so friendly, especially the small kids- so pretty and cute. We got to play with them and talk to them. I met this girl called Laila. She is very cute!

*Forward to that night* Had delicious dinner! Slept... But in the middle of the night, I had a bad dream! I was mortified(terrified)! I couldn't fall back to sleep. It was like something was haunting me so badly, fear gripped me. I kept on praying but i was doubting... It was like a spiritual attack...

So glad that it was morning!!! Phew!!! We had morning devotion and intercession time. Of course we ate breakfast.. Then, we continued on with some last minute drama practice, sermon and worship practice before we left for the village we went the day before.

During the whole ministry time in th village, we played games- I could see the kids having so much fun! We sang songs like ' Anak Monyet', ' Yesus Pokok', Mukjizat Itu Nyata', Ku Mau Cinta Yesus Selamanya' etc. drama, sermon then we prayed for them in BM! It was really an awesome experince for me. After that, we said bye bye to them- so sad, really miss all of them.

Then we celebrated Marie's birthday during dinner!

We went back to our 'home'. We played Captain Ball! Seronoknya! Jean, Charis, Tim and Jody were awesome players. Of course without teamwork, it was quite impossible to win. Oh I forgot, Naomi was the semangat girl!!! Haha.. After having a good bath at night, some of us decided to stay up late. I was one of them... We had *maggee moments* and shared lots of interesting stories... The stories blown me away! I slept at 3.30PM- no dreams this time! Some of them stayed up the whole night...

All good things must come to an end... We had to leave... Quite sad but very sleepy... Ehehehe
Had a noisy time in the van... We came back at 10.30AM in DC. So semangat for XYZ...Graduated! More pictures... Then etc etc....

NSCFL Camp 2009

2009-12-06T08:59:00.000-08:00

Okay... NSCFL Camp stands for National School Christian Fellowship Leaders Camp! I've joined it together with Esther... It was a 6 days 5 nights camp held on the 23rd Nov till 28th Nov. I was actually quite excited about it.

I don't where to start... I'll just share some of the highlights of the camp. Firstly, we had school CF sessions where different CFs group together and shared the problems we face in CF. It was rather fun to hear each others ideas and discuss about them...

Then, we had Fast and Solitude on the second last day. It was so fun! Though I was hungry, God spoke into my life the things I had to deal with... After that, I felt such a relief!!! The Fasting lasted for almost 5++ hours and Solitude lasted for 4 hours!!! It was a good experience... I wrote a song too. XD

That night, we had formal night... My eyes were quite 'bengkak' ( if you're smart, you'll know why)

The next day, it was bye-bye time...

Sorry, it's kinda brief... But doesn't mean I don't remember them- It'll always be my memory..

Looking Back...

2009-11-04T06:24:00.000-08:00

Hmmm.... *blink blink* It's already November.. I've said it before, but i'm going to say it again- Time FLIES! I just can't imagine that things just passed so fast. One thing i know- I'm sixteen already! but i thank God things never pass me by..

January- I'm form four... Man! It's difficult...
February- Things are getting harder...
March- Girl guides camp (Relax-nya), CF camp- AWEsomely loved!
April- Permit camp (Tiring but relaxing at the same time), exams around the corner...
May-Exam already? So fast, I guess my results were fairly good-Thank God and all glory to Him and Him alone. 2nd!
June- 13th MCCC (Pretty cool), Holidays?!
July- Life's getting tougher each day, but with God's strength? I'll take back what i just said... =)
August-BK trials (Is there another word for difficult?), schedule packed!(running out of time), stepped up, BK QUIZ (1st in Central Selangor, Praise God)
September- Another week of holidays!, my sweet sixteen? XD (photos will be updated ASAP),
Finals around the corner!(Oh, crap! * cupcakes i mean)
October- Final exams. Stress, but not as stress as mid-term (funny, but it's the
truth)
November- Results (just don't compare with mid-term, i'm fine), I thank God for them anyway, without His help, I'm definitely DOOMED!, Found out something about my classmate (saddening), The Rescue by Nicholas Sparks (Inspiring...)
December- Wait! not there yet... XP

That's about it! Will always be That's in my memory... Oh by the way, i miss my friends in tuition... Weird but it's the truth...

Nicholas Sparks' s Books

2009-11-04T04:34:00.000-08:00

I've been inspired by his books-thanks to Esther who introduced me to his books. At first, when she told me about it, i wasn't interested or fond to read it. I thought it would be boring because it seems to be for adults.

Surprisingly, it wasn't at all that boring, in fact it was inspiring! Or rather they were inspiring and touching...

So far... I've read : Nights in Rodanthe, A Walk to Remember, The Guardian, The Wedding, True Believer, At First Sight and The Rescue- the best among all (for me). By the way, they are all romance story...

Okay, let me tell you a little bit about The Rescue, since it was my favourite one so far...
A volunteer fireman Taylor McAden met Denise, a single parent who has a son named Kyle through a car crashed. Soon, they fell in love. However, it was hard for Taylor to commit himself to the relationship because there was something in the past which held him back. His friends and even Denise wanted to know what was it. As all these things were happening, a tragedy happened to his dearest friend. After the lost, he resolved things with Denise and told her what happened in the past (his father's death). Denise gave him a second chance and Kyle was happy again... Oh, don't miss Mitch- their son.

=)

We Cry Out

2009-09-23T07:39:00.000-07:00

Listening to a song- We Cry Out by Kira Jobe... The lyrics are very relevant and true.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPQmW8jpJjQ&feature=related

Hope that this song will bless you! XD

Jesus loves you more than anyone could in this world!- not even your spouse, parents, partner or friends...

=S

2009-09-11T08:02:00.000-07:00

Exam's in three weeks time!!! Stress-nya... I know how the PMR students feel... That's because the form 4's exam is starting on the same day as PMR! That's-that's *speechless*. Part of me wants the exam to end earlier, but I want to have more time study too... Oh well, that's about it!

Don't think I'll be going online often... XD

Cameron Highlands!

2009-09-06T04:25:00.000-07:00

We had our very memorable, exciting, fun, cherished etc. family trip... I don't think we had one together with my nieces and nephew- which is EVERYONE! Okay, so let me start from the top...

When my brother confirmed the dates for this trip, I was a little sad and worried as I was suppose to dance on that weekend. However, by God's grace! I found someone to swap with me. So that was a great relief. Later, I found out that CF is having S.A.D. ( Sisters' Appreciation Day) on friday... I couldn't go b'cause I had to leave school right away... What a waste! But I never regretted it. I had so much fun with my family members- it's unexplainable!

Okay, so we did the last minute packing. And done! We were in the car going to our next destination- Cameron Highlands!

In the car... Quite tired, just came back from school

Stopped by at the R&R

From then on, I think most of us slept... Hehe... We made it! On the way, I got car-sick, not as bad as my sister but still not feeling comfortable. I think I was hungry at the same time so... ya. XP Oh ya! We listened to worship songs every time when we were in the car. I think that God's presence and peace and joy was just overflowing! Awesome!

The resort we stayed in... awesome place

We checked in around 5.45 pm... Weather was great- cooling. Just what we needed. Unpacked, went for dinner-that's what I need! Ehehe... We ate at May Flower Restaurant. If you're going to Camerons, should try out that place. Food's not bad! Visited the night market. Freezing cold!After that, went back to the apartment. Zzz

Having breakfast!

Remembering our childhood life... except for Ava, she's enjoying hers now.

Rise and Shine! We ate breakfast at the resort. Yummy food. I think I ate a lot there. Man!Need to dance more now. Hehe XD Soon after we ate, we went to work out at the park. 5 years back, the park was okay... Now, the park need a little renovation here and there... However, had fun there, enjoying the weather.

At the top of the tea plantation...

Coming down...

Then, we went to the BOH Tea plantation. PMR students should know their Geography well... Cameron Highlands mengeksport BOH Tea sebagai sumber pendapatan negara. Pictures are better than saying a thousand words. It was amazing. Such a wide, big, deep, fascinating valley. We climbed up to the top of the hill. So scary! We tried to fly kite- wasn't successful.

My sister arrived then. So, we left the tea plantation using the small--no narrow road. Had lunch. After that, we went to the Cactus Valley. Wow! So many many many pretty flowers and gigantic cactus... Loves the Lavenders- most probably because they're purple in colour... XP My favourite colour! I was sleepy by then. Again. It's only like 2 something in the afternoon- i think the weather's the one making me sleepy... Went back to the apartment, took a good nap. Energised.

Cactus Valley

Lavenders!!!

Three of them having fun...

Around 5 something in the evening, we had tea at the Bharat Tea & Coffee Shop. That was another wonderful and fantastic scenery. Scones, tea, Ahh... what a life! Then, we went to a playground at Tanah Rata- the one I went with my cousins 4 or 5 years back... That time was me, Charmaine and Cheryl. Now it's Ava, Ethan and Phoebe. Haha! They had lots of fun running up and down. Parents had to open wide their eyes to make sure their kids don't trip and fall. Then we moved on to the basketball court. Three of them played a very very small basket ball. It got hook on to the net as it was a keychain... They had fun- rather, we all had fun! Together with the kids! Haha...

Tea plantation!

Three siblings..

Smiling...Cheese everyone!
Look at the Camera!
Three beautiful, God-given children.

All of us got hungry by then. So we went back to May Flower and had our dinner. Because it was raining, so we didn't go to the night market. I watched Disney Channel to pass time... Watched Cadet Kelly. Everyone watched together.. Then slept.

Again rise & shine! Breakfast together with sister and family. Didn't manage to go to the park as it was wet and lack of time. We went to the morning market and got hold of some fresh vegetables and some souveniers... After that, we went to Cactus Point! More flowers and food.. Ehehe...

Cactus point!

Sweeties among pretties...

Posing..

Packed up and checked out. Visited the bee farm... Hungry!!! So, we dropped by the Water Crest Restaurant to have our lunch before we leave. Trust me! I will definitely go there again though there were many flies as it's a Water Crest Farm... Water Crest= Xi Yang Chai (chinese). Yummy.

Bee Farm!

Princesses on the swing!

There're yummy food here!

Water crest farm...

After that, we left for K.L.- the hot, busy, stressful city... Sigh... Bye Camerons... Would always cherish these moments we had together as a family! Thank you everyone for making this a successful and awesome family trip! XD

Satu Suara

2009-09-02T07:29:00.000-07:00

I know Hari Anugerah Kokurikulum was 2 weeks ago... I was not able to go online till now, so couldn't update my blog about it. We represented CF to perform the dance- Satu Suara! Wai Yan was the leader. =) Thank you for being so patient with me... Hehe.. Ultimately, ALL PRAISE & GLORY To GOD! Without His strength and creativity, we'll be all worn out and 'stuck'. We'd practised for almost a month or so, we build many friendships along the way. Got to know each other better. I told Hilary that I missed those times we spent together practising, though they were tiring, we had FUN! She agreed with me. =)

So here are some pictures:

13th National BK Oral Quiz 2009

2009-08-05T08:05:00.000-07:00

" What am I gonna do, Esther?" " So many more chapters to go..." " Don't think I can finish reading them, especially Acts!" " God, please help me!" I kept on saying these the week before the quiz. As the 'day' was drawing near, I was feeling even more nervous because I hadn't even finish reading Luke chapter 1!

On Thursday which was 2 days before the quiz, Wai Yan told me that my name and Esther's name weren't in the quiz. I was *speechless*- a little happy on the inside, but feeling more disappointed. When I went back home, my mom told me she will be going back to Taiping during the weekend which clashes with the BK Quiz. She wants me to go back with her too., because my aunt was quite sick and was a pre-believer. I was so so confused whether should i go back or not. So, I prayed earnestly. Later in the evening, I went for dance practice in church. A sister prayed for me and I just felt the peace right away, knowing that Jesus will show me the way. The next morning, Huey Wern told me that Esther and I can take her place for the quiz. I was delighted! Jesus answered my prayer. Thank you, Huey Wern and Jenny for letting us take your place. XD

Then, I started studying hard! Haha! In my mind, I was thinking how am i gonna finish 51 chapters in 1 day...

Cut the long story short:

I reached Taman Bahagia LRT Station at 6.10 am, woke up at 4 am- so i was pretty sleepy then. Still feeling nervous, because I wasn't done with 12 chapters of Luke and the whole book of Acts! Whatever la! Nothing can go in my head then. I just kept on praying and praying that God's favour will be upon us. So, we reached SMK Assunta(P) at 7 ++ am. It's a pretty girl school. Anyways, we were given a briefing before the quiz starts. By the way, this quiz is a pair thing. I got even more nervous. But, we prayed again before we went for the 1st round-MCQs (individual). After that, we came out and discussed a little about the questions we were unsure about. "Oops! Uh-oh" " I forgot!" We were quite discouraged after finding out the mistakes we did. Fearing that we might not be able to get into the 2nd round.

However, God has been faithful, He helped us. We got into the 2nd round. Yay! After speeches and worship, the time came for the 2nd round of the quiz (10 questions- team work). Nervous again. So, we prayed again before it started. We got 8/10 answers right. They added up the points for MCQ and the 2nd round. We made it to the semi-finals. Praise God! Phew! But, this part is a so-called individual thing. So, we had to separate from our partners. I was clueless about the type of questions they were going to ask and didn't know what type of answers they wanted. Thank God! He helped both of us to answer the questions.

As the people in charged were cumulating the results, we were nervous, hungry, thirsty... Jeremy prayed for us and we prayed also, reminding ourselves that this is for God and not for our own fame. Peace filled our hearts. "TS 10!" We made it to Finals! However, there was a tie-breaker, because there were 5 teams with the same marks. It was then, we didn't make it through. Aww... how sad you might say. But I think, God has been really gracious, considering that I didn't finish studying. Ehehe...

We sat through the whole event. Trying to absorb the type of questions they asked, so that we'll know what will it be like the next year. Haha! Here comes the prize giving session. We won 1st for the Selangor state. All glory to God!

Throughout the whole thing, I held on to this verse, " For there is nothing God cannot do." We just need to trust in Him. He can do the impossibles.

After that, we went to A&W to fellowship together. It was an awesome ride as we were leaving Assunta to A&W. Jeremy fetched us there, and I was happily sitting on Hilary's lap. Poor thing, she was heated up in the car for quite a while. Sorry...

That's about it. We are looking forward to the 14th National Bk Oral Quiz 2010. =)

Here are some pictures taken:

On the way to Assunta...

If you want to know more about it, you can ask me or check out the video in youtube or check it out in facebook. XD

One Step at a Time

2009-07-14T07:43:00.000-07:00

It's gonna be a busy week, I can tell, even though 2 days just passed this week. Seriously, I didn't know being merely a Form 4 student can be so busy. *sigh* Life's just awesome at times, and stressful many times... :S School food's really terrifying me, I can't stand eating them any longer. Not that I'm picky or what, but it's just the 4 years of eating the same varieties of food, man!

However, Esther humoured me in class. Not today, but some time ago... We were conducting an experiment - which I always think that experiments are DANGEROUS! Anyways, my friend was going to turn on the Bunsen burner and his face was like 3 cm away from it. I was so worried for him that the flame will just burn his whole head off, so I hid behind Esther- didn't want to see that scene if it really were to happen. What I did not expect from her was- she turned around and said, " Jou mat yeh lei gam giang?" (Why are you so scared?) She said it in Cantonese- it was so funny!

Finally, here's my week... I'm gonna study BK, sit for the exam and break up with 'you' when it's all over. Yay!!!

50th Post

2009-07-07T23:21:00.002-07:00

We had practice for the Merdeka Singing Competiton- it was *speechless* , manda and yew leung did a great job! Hehe

We didn't do much in class, we had fun drawing the plan of our dream nation. Everyone poured out their ideas and man! We are creative! XD

Bio class was err... dead. It's not a good idea to have Bio for the 1st period, it's gonna put us to sleep. Sorry teacher if you're reading this...

Finally, we had BM oral test. I can feel my face blushing when I was speaking in front of the class, but I suppose it went well. =) Thank you team!

Now, need to start studying for BK exam... *sigh*

Transformers- Revenge of The Fallen

2009-07-03T20:25:00.001-07:00

At first, when I heard about Transformers, I wasn't interested at all, because I thought that it was a guy kind of show. But I was wrong.

I watched the trailer recently, I found it exciting... So, I borrowed the first one from my friend to watch-outdated huh? and guess what? I was so desperate to watch the 2nd one.

I went to the cinema on purpose just to buy the tickets. XD

We watched it yesterday night! It was very EXCITING! Yay!

I like Bumblebee... He's so sweet... Hehe

I think there'll be Transformers 3, it doesn't look like it's the end.

Anyways, like what my friend had said, It's worth to watch!

RKA Day

2009-06-30T20:22:00.000-07:00

Early in the morning, I woke up as usual, was so so sleepy because I slept at 12 a.m.- thanks to the civic project. Anyways, the first thing I did after reaching school was going to look for Pn. K. She approved the layout, and Thank God! Hehe... Thank you, Mag! She did all the printing... =D
Being so relieved, I met LR outside the office. He was talking with me and En. N called us to go back to our class. Ofcourse I listened to him, went to my class and settled down. Classmates were busy doing their mod-maths homework while waiting for their parents to come and get their report cards.

Mom came early and got my report card. I reached home by 8 a.m. My parents were happy with my results and all glory goes to my Father in Heaven. Without Him, I'm nothing! Slept again till 10 a.m. XD

* For those who think that they didn't do well, don't be sad, you can do better for the next term! =)

Sports Day 2009

2009-06-28T06:25:00.000-07:00

Sports Day again... I had never missed it since Form 1- such a good girl. Haha. That's only because I participated in marching *sigh*. Being under the HOT sun and shouting out loud is really suffering. However, that's when we bond together as a TEAM and get to each other more, building our friendship to a next level... Even though we didn't win this year, through the practices, I learned a lot- character wise.... I learned to humble myself, to submit to my leaders and to accept others the way they are. So, I guess it was worth it. =)

Here are some pictures :

Weeeeeeeeee................ Go Girls!!! We can do it! We'll do better!

Fly Kite..

2009-06-15T03:35:00.000-07:00

Yesterday, we had a trip to Desa Parkcity. We wanted to fly kite. I guess my niece was a little disappointed that she couldn't fly kite because it was raining quite heavily. However, that place was so pretty and expensive. We saw so many dogs, expensive and pampered dogs. They were so cute and lovable! Ehehe... Oh well, even though we didn't get to fly kite, we got to look around that place and took some pictures. Haha.

Dancers' Gathering!

2009-06-14T06:15:00.001-07:00

Thank God it's Sunday! Today, we had lots of fun! Trust me, loads of fun! We chit-chated and ate lots of yummy, delicious food. I guess pictures are better than a thousand words...

Lovely dancers...

Fish Cutlet

Sweet dancers..

Next 'Food Station'

Chocolate Fondue

It's just sad that school reopens tomorrow. Why?! Anyways, I miss my friends and that's all I miss in these 2 weeks... Haha!

Queen in My Heart

2009-06-11T00:23:00.000-07:00

Mummies are very important in a child's life. So are daddies.. Well, daddies just can't take the place of mummies. Sorry, but it's true for me.

Life without mummy is really spinning my head around... No yummy food, sniff...
Now, I also know how difficult and tiring house chores can be. Trust me, go hug your mummy and thank her for all the things that she does for you. Not easy at all!

My mummy is the best in this whole wide world! XD

13th MCCC

2009-06-05T03:14:00.000-07:00

The 13th Malaysia Cell Church Conference (MCCC) was held at Dream Centre. It's a 4 days conference, the guest speaker was Pastor Chris Hodges. I've truly been blessed by it.

" This is good!"

4th June 09

The first day of MCCC was awesome. Everything went smoothly by the grace of God. You might be asking, " Why are you there?" Well, I guess this is really God's divine opportunity for me to attend this conference. I've learned a lot from it. One of it was- Ps. Chris shared with us the 4 aspects of a person's life. This is new to me! But true. Firstly, the Arena-" I know and you know." Things that I myself know and other people knows it too. Secondly, the Mask- " I know but you don't know." Things that are hidden from people, it's a secret. Thirdly, the Blindspot- " You know but I don't know." Things that you can see in me, but I do not realise it. Lastly, the Potential- " I don't know and you don't know." Only God knows about it. Arenas happen in the church, where everybody knows. However, the other 3 aspects happen in the cell.

That is why cell group/ life group/ care group/ small group is so vital in church growth.

Another thing is human beings are created for dynamic relationships. Therefore, in a cell group, we can build relationships with one another and this will lead us to grow and learn more.

Besides that, everyone needs a vision in life.

Proverbs 29:18 " Where there is no vision, people perish..."

A vision keeps a person focused.

5th June 09

" Focus on not what you are doing, but what you are becoming."

There are 4 principles that he shared with us on how he lives his life. It's amazing! New to me again! But true. haha. Firstly, take control of your schedule- know how to prioritise your life.

Secondly, relief pressure with margin- 4 margins: emotional margin, physical margin, time margin, and financial margin. Never go to your limits. Thirdly, do only what I can do. Lastly, stay focus on the vision- don't get distracted!

6th June 09

God's 1st words to human beings- " Be fruitful and increase in number." and Jesus' last words- " Therefore go and make disciples of all nations.." Wow! All reproduction (developing leaders) requires intimacy/ relationship. However, the evil one hates people to have relationship with each other, because he doesn't want the process of multiplication (ability to put a potential inside someone). How do you develope leaders? Firstly, you do it. People do what people see. " Half integrity, model the way." Secondly, you do it and someone is with you. Never minister alone. Bring someone along. Thirdly, they do it and you are with them. Give them a chance to do it, and correct them along the way. Then, they do it- empower them. Lastly, they do it and someone is with them. Put it in their hands to reproduce themselves.

Many times when we want to do something great for God, there are always challenges that we need to face. However, " be strong and courages." We can defeat these challenges/ kings - humilty, honesty and led by the Holy Spirit. God will not despise a broken heart. As we confess our sins to Him, He will forgive us. His love never fails. It is written, James 5:16 " Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed." When we are led by the Holy Spirit, God can do things that we can't accomplish.

That's about it... Hope you'll be blessed by it. Jesus loves you. =)

MPYO 2009

2009-06-02T20:25:00.000-07:00

Malaysian Philharmonic Youth Orchestra! It was not bad, quite interesting. The orchestra band were youth except for the conductor, Kevin Field. The music played have their stories behind it... I liked the last performance- Divertissement by Jacques Ibert.

mixed feelings

2009-05-31T05:59:00.000-07:00

Hmmm... Thinking again...
Sometimes you just want to say anything you want, but if you say it too fast, things might just change... *sigh*

Teacher's Day!

2009-05-29T04:37:00.000-07:00

Well, today we celebrated Teacher's Day though it had passed 2 weeks ago. Anyways, It's my 4th year celebrating teacher's day in high school and I've never missed it. Haha!

This year was a little different... I've taken part in 2 performances, singing and dancing... They were- no comments. Thank God for everything! But, the good thing is- I've spent the whole week in the hall! Never felt so intimidate with the hall. There were also other performances.. They were awesome!!! I think this year was the best. Haha! Great job to all the performers!

The teachers were sporting too... They joined in with the twist! I hope the teachers had fun and enjoyed the performances!

To all the lovely teachers, " Happy Teacher's Day!"

The pretty ladies...

Worship Central!

2009-05-25T07:43:00.000-07:00

Worship Central came to Malaysia on the 19th of May! It was truly another eye-opening moment. It was simple, however as we sing and praise God, His presence just filled the place.
It was awesome! Really thank God for this opportunity.

If you want to know more about Worship Central, you can log in to www.worshipcentral.org.
You can find more informations there, and learn from them too!

In Christ Alone

2009-05-03T01:57:00.000-07:00

Yes! Indeed in Christ alone that I can go through this week. It was a- stressful week, as mid- term's around the corner. Many many things to do... Anyways, I should not stress up my readers.

"Why in Christ alone?" you may ask. This is why- as I've said earlier that the week was stressful for me... I was thinking how can I finish my homework, finish studying, attempt tests in school and so on... As I was 'emo-ing', God just dropped a thought in my mind-In Christ Alone.

It's a song by the way. That was the song which had reminded me of putting my trust in the Lord.

As I listened to it, God spoke to me that I'm not putting Him in the centre of all my problems and I did not fully trust in Him. I was leaning on my own strength, that is why I was so stressed up and everything was weighing me down... I prayed and God comforted me, reminding me that He's in control of EVERYTHING. Wow! Isn't that awesome? It was for me, especially at that point of time. This doesn't mean that I didn't know that He's in control of everything, but sometimes human tends to forget when we are caught up with so much things.

So, just want to encourage you all that God' in control of everything in your life. Just call out to Him in desperation, He'll be there.

" In Christ Alone, I place my trust"...

Sweet song..

2009-04-22T05:33:00.000-07:00

In love with 'Xiao Xiao' by Joey Yung...
It's a very sweet and soothing song... =)

~Ended~

2009-04-20T03:45:00.000-07:00

I am really happy that last week had ENDED.

Camp was well...tiring. But, which camp isn't? We did many crazy things, singing at every moment, laughing during midnight while building gadgets, got hyper,and the highlight of it is---- steam boat!!! It was awesome! So wonderful, and so the full...hehe...we over ate..
But the weather was so so so hot!!!!! It's burning all of us... Oh well, overall, it was good. XD

After camp, went for BK class.. I can say that half of what teacher taught just passed me by...Sorry teacher, was really very tired... Ehehe...
So after it, of course I went to sleep. Then, started studying Bio because the Monday was the test. Trying hard to stay focus and awake. Then studied History... It was like 'Man that's it!' Nothing can get in anymore...

Anyways, to cut the long story short, the 2 tests today went smoothly, i think or rather i hope...
And we had practice for the audition on Wednesday! I hope everything will go according to plan on that day and please let us pass... Oh well, it's all by God's grace!

That's about it!

Relax?You tell me...

2009-04-16T03:34:00.000-07:00

Many things happened this week and there are more to come...

1. New Hair Cut!

It was err... well, i got many comments from my friends about it. Some say nice, some say cute, some say "i like the previous one better"... Oh well, I can't go back time, it's done already and you just got to be use to it!

2. Staying backs

Stayed back in school almost the whole week... Ughhhh!!! All of us tied knots for gadgets till our fingers hurt! So painful!

3.Tests!

Tuesday, we had physics and english tests, today we had mod maths and add maths tests...

Next Monday, we are going to have Bio and history tests... Man!!! This is killing me...

4. Postal Quiz

Gen 1-8, Luke 1-8; 21-24

Haven't finish reading them yet...

5. Camp over the weekend.

Not only the number of test is irritating me, the time i have left to study for them is depressing me... I have NOT ENOUGH time!!! Lord, please help me...

Well, this is it! It's gonna over soon... and I know Jesus is with me all the time... I just need to rely on His strength!!!

Hmmm..

2009-04-12T02:12:00.000-07:00

Life's just so complicated! Ughh... Emo...

Extravagnt!

2009-03-19T04:10:00.000-07:00

Wow! This CF Camp 2009 was indeed amazing.
It was so awesome. I believe many were touched by the sessions and Jesus' love.
3 days just passed so fast. The annual camp has just passed!!! *sigh* Will miss the form 5s... ( Please do come back next year, if that's possible) XD

Anyways, I was deeply moved by God's love. It was just so real that He died on the cross for our sins. He loves EVERYONE of us, and I think that's what the world needs-LOVE.

Oh well, that's about it.

Take care,
God bless. =)

"Sorry No Cure"

2009-03-13T06:41:00.001-07:00

Has anyone said "Sorry no cure" to you? I'm sure those who said it could be just your friends, and they might just be joking...
What if a teacher says that to you? Met that situation before? Well... I did. Trust me, you wouldn't want to go through it.

It's just so 'Yish!' I said sorry, but she just said " Don't say sorry, it doesn't work..." Doesn't she have a better line to say? Can't she be a little more gracious? Doesn't she know these words from a teacher's mouth means a lot?

Anyways, I was just so surprised that when that teacher said that to me, I didn't really reacted. I thought I would cry. But I didn't. I was quite calm then. God comforted me. He told me it's ok and He's with me no matter what. I can tell you that those words are comforting... I really want to thank God that even such small things, He still care for me.

So, the message is :
"Your problems are not so small that God wouldn't care about it, and God is not so small that He couldn't handle your biggest problem!"

Take care. =)

CG Outing

2009-03-09T03:42:00.000-07:00

Wow! It was truly an awesome time playing in the rain, wait i meant swimming in the rain...
Everything went well, except for the part where we got scolded... ehehe... our fault =.='
We played some games in the pool and made a lot of noise! Ehehe...

After that, we went to Tropicana City. We ate there, the food's not bad. Shop for awhile... found nice clothes! But didn't buy... The 'saddest' thing of all: we didn't go to starbucks! Yish!
Oh well, we'll wait for those who didn't come today...So good right? Make sure you all thank Joanna... XD

That's about it!
=)

Too Late!

2009-03-05T00:48:00.000-08:00

It's March already! Exams are coming up soon... It's really fast. :S

Yesterday, as teacher was teaching Bio, I found out that i didn't really like it. Man! That's like so wrong... Today, as I was walking pass the form 3 science class, the things they are learning are like so simple compared to Bio. Golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum... What are they?! Yish! It's really too late to regret. I know God will help me go through the 2 years.
Who knows? maybe I will like it... XD Hopefully..

Oh well, to all my lovely friends,
"Study hard and study smart!"

God bless.

Jesus' Love for You =)

2009-03-01T22:41:00.000-08:00

Sometimes life may be so confusing, so frustrating, so emotional...
Well, these things are part of life right? It may seem to be even harder when someone disappoints you,what more if that's your friend...
However, there's a good news for you! Jesus loves you and He cares for you!!!

You may think that no one knows what you are going through right now...
You may think that you are all alone and no one understands;
It's just all in your head, your mind's thinking real hard to find for a solution...
I can tell you that, the only solution is through Jesus Christ...

You may say, "He's God! How would He understand what I'm facing...His has no problems in His life."
Let me tell you that He came to Earth and suffered on the cross for our sins and took our blames... When He did not even deserve such suffering!
All because of ONE reason: Jesus loves EVERYONE! I mean it EVERYONE !

So, you just have to call upon His name, and He will be there for you...
You may be having some problems that you can't tell anyone, and Jesus is there for you...
Talk to Him... Jesus' name is the name above all names...
He's waiting for you to call Him, and He's there to listen to your mourns...
and of course! If you have a good news to tell, don't leave Him out! Tell Him too... He's happy for you too...

I hope this message will bless you.
Once again, Jesus loves you...
Even if your family, best friend, boy/girl friend, whoever failed you, Jesus' love never fails. =)

'Chap Go Meh' -15th day of CNY!!!

2009-02-09T01:49:00.001-08:00

Hey again! =)

I'm back here again. ehehe..

Yesterday, we celebrated 'chap go meh' as a family. We played firecrackers!!! It was so scary when one of the firecrackers almost shoot at my cousin's leg. Oh ya, before that we had dinner. It was awesome and delicious!!! Man! after CNY, It's gonna be dieting time...ehehe XP

Anyways, we took some pictures again! Haha!

My cousins..

My sister and niece...

Lastly, i hope everyone had a awesome Chinese New Year! May the Lord bless all of you!

Chinese New Year 2009

2009-01-28T05:45:00.000-08:00

Happy Chinese New Year!!!

This CNY was awesome! There was bonding, fellowshipping, excitement and lots more...
In spite of all those angpaus and 'makaning', there was the inner peace that was surrounding us. I think that's the most important thing of all.

On the second day of CNY, we made a trip down to Port Dickson. It was another fantastic moment. I played FOOTBALL with my cousins. haha! This was my first time playing football, i suppose it was a nice start. I liked it! I enjoyed it!I had so much fun! Now,only I know how much fun playing football. Hehe..

Today, we watched movie-'InkHeart'! It was interesting, but my cousin said that the book was better... I guess the books are always better than the movie... because our imaginations are different than the director's... I had fun!

Oops!!! I forgotten about the first day of CNY... ehehe...
Well, we ate, ate, ate... played cards-not gambling. Hmmm, took pictures!!!
Lastly, I really want to thank God for all these blessings that He had given to me, my family members, friends... Though i can't meet all my family members, but i still want to thank God for them, for being part of my life.

I remembered one pastor once said, " Functional roles are replaceable, but Relational roles are irreplaceable." Family members are irreplaceable. God has placed them in our lives, no matter what is it, they will FOREVER be our family members until the day we leave this earth. Therefore, lets cherish one another and be a blessing to the people around us starting this year.

Let this year be the best year of your life!

God bless and Take care.

We were both young when I first saw you...

Encounter

2008-12-15T19:43:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone!!!
This is my first time blogging... I'm sorry if it's not good enough.
Anyways, I just wanna share bout a camp i just went- Encounter Camp!!! It's a camp organised by my church's youth zone!
I'm glad to say it was an awesome camp! It was a 4 days 3 nights camp. It was held at a NS training centre. Well, we had fun there and most of all we encountered God there. It was truly a refreshing moment for me, able to be away for awhile to seek the Lord's face.

We went for reppeling- i think that's how it's spelt XD, It's scary for me, being the first time, i totally screwed it up, hanging half way in the air not able to come down, it's a scary experience for me... oh well, i made it finally! hehe.. Next, we also went for kayaking. yes! It was my first time doing that. I like water, not afraid of it... but i don't wanna be left out there in the lake not able to reach my destination. We struggled for quite some time to row the boat forward-rowing the boat straight not easy for me. Finally, we made it!

I guess that's about it for now. Take care, Stay healthy and God bless!
