My sister just came back from Singapore yesterday. It's been a week since I last saw her but still kept in touch with her. More like she still has to listen to my daily updates and stories. I hardly listen to hers. (She's a great listener!) It's been quite some time that I got so excited and overjoyed is the word. She really knows me and what I want. I am a person who well, don't really expect much from others. So, I don't hope for stuff or request for stuff. If I want something I work for it on my own. I hardly think of things that I really want. If someone ask me so what do you want I will actually have to think because don't really know 2.

So yups she got me Salming Zeta and a floorball bag. Ya, I know some of you must be thinking what the heck is floorball? Is it of this world? So my advice. Google it out.

It's been what I have been trying to get but never really put it as a priority as it is not a need but a want. Have other stuff in the line that is more important so getting that especially out of the blues is really amazing.

I am blogging in campus. Saw friends which I have not seen for some time. Came back to get my ID which has been confiscated. Really afraid that I will get a nice shelling or get barred from borrowing books for the semester but guess what? The librarian was really nice. In fact, the best part of it all is getting to know another person. We talk about Kajang, studies and even work. So nice of her.

Work on the other hand is really giving me the experience. I do hope that I will be able to say at the end of the day that its worth it because right now I wonder why in the world do I bother to continue. Anyway, I am sure HE has something up His sleeves in stored so well I will be patient and grow from this.

Yesterday night was FSCC first CG and needless to say it was SUPERB! I think its right to call it connect group because I felt connected to the people there. Its a good feeling. I do hope that this won't just be a temporary thing since we are all knew but we will continue to notice people who are left out of the circle and bring them in so they too will feel at home and welcomed.

A little thing I got from today's devotion speaks much of my life now. =)

For all things beautiful, and good, and true;
For all things that seemed not good yet turned to good;
For all the sweet compulsions of Thy Will
That chased, and tried, and wrought us to Thy shape--
We thank Thee, Lord.

Have you ever wondered how people can spend so much time doing things that doesnt really matter? I remember a book written by Philip Yancey talking about the people in the gym. Well, I was reminded of it in the evening. I would say life without meaning would absolutely spell horrible. I am glad I have a purpose no matter how mundane life can be some times.

Was totally ripped off today. The shop says RM9.90 for a haircut and guess how much I paid for it? RM25. If its done by a professional I have no complaints. Poorly cut. All because I could not wait for an hour at my usual place. The saloon which I normally go to is just opposite but it was so packed. there wasnt even a small place where you can sit. Now I understand why. Just needed to keep my hair in order. Was getting a little way out of control.

Went for my first RPM class today. Glad that we ended slightly before an hour. Who said cycling is an easy thing? I have no stamina. Arghhhh.... Today started off really interesting. My little brother forgot to bring his bag to school. Skipped floorball today and I must say I did accomplish more errands. CIMA Business Challenge is on the waiting list. I need to have an open mind for fresh ideas to pour in. Wisdom and knowledge are the things I need. Matured thinking :P

Today is my first time going to FGA alone. Ever since I join FGA my 'tai ka jie' is always there and she has gone across the seas and left her poor 'mei mei' alone. (She doesnt call me that tho). Glad that she is having a good time there. However the good thing is I manage to go for a swim before service today as she was not with me. (Apparently she gets ready much longer than me, can never make it in time for church if go swimming with her)

I really like to see how this church is progressing. There were many new people today but the best part of it all its the fellowship. Since everyone is new to FSCC well I guess that breaks the barrier down and everyone is going around getting to know each other. Have to admit though that if you don't want to take the first step to know others and sit and play the waiting game then nothing is going to move. Decided to step out and get to know people and I must say its really rewarding.

Looking forward to the first connect group this coming Friday. I am very happy today. During service well TARC did come to mind but as we were worshipping I told God I want to make a difference and do something where He has put me. So I prayed a little prayer for UNITEN as I now belong to the UNITEN CG and guess what 3 UNITEN people walk in and later when service ended I was so shocked to see the number of UNITEN students that came. Isn't my God amazing. Just like the song Amazed that we were singing in church today.

Came back and its quite funny but yet scarry. The snake issue in the house came up again. My siblings found a bronze snake skin and as usual mum goes into a frenzy about safety and all and world war starts. Anyone with brilliant plans to keep snakes away?

Wasting my time away. CIMA business challenge report not done. Applications far from it. Work starts tomorrow. Like work yet don't like being tied down. Glad that I have things to look forward 2 make it much more bearable.

Just came back from a hike. Well, its been quite a while since I last climbed. This time round instead of seeing the sunrise I caught the sunset. For the very first time I saw the sun and then the darkness. Usually its walking in the dark then there's a certain hope that you are looking for that the sun will rise. The view as usual is totally awesome. He does it so well. Talking about Pablo Picaso or Michael Angelo, HE beats them flat. He paints the skies and the scenery that really touches the heart and leaves a certain imprint on it.

The hike is getting much easier. Not to boast or anything but 15min and I am up. Getting better at the ins and outs of the hill. No more short breaks in between. Yipee!!! Don't have a cool camera to take the picture but well just see the pics below. Breath taking.





Today was just totally cool! I saw swifts flying in and out. Weird but as I sat on the rock I was reminded of church. Maybe its because I have been so used to going to church on Saturday evenings. Anyway I was reminded of Aunty Susan's message.

I like the way she puts it if you want to fish and you want good fish would you go to the "longkang" area? If you do you will get "longkang" fish. Not the exact words but it goes something like that. She was actually referring to our life partners. If you want good partners ie good character and etc Then you have to go to the right places. Haahaa wonder why nature brought me to such a sermon. Must start hanging out at the right places. :P

Yesterday was FSCC very first combine prayer meeting since the church started. I was really looking forward to it all week and I must say that it was good to be in the Lord's presence. Just being with Him makes everything alrite.

During the prayer meeting, Joshua staying at the tent of meeting was brought to mind. There is something so wonderful, so awesome that kept Joshua there. Well, I have seen prayer meetings and church services but Joshua wasn't there for any hype activity. Not friends, not good food, it was just plainly the LORD Himself. There is something that Joshua saw. He knew that made him put aside popularity and power by following Moses back to the people. Joshua knew who the Lord is. Just like Mary who just sat at the feet of the Lord. Notice where their priority in life is. Just so amazing.

Another thing when I was just praying, I remembered one of the passages in Acts one of the bible study passages I was doing over the month. Peter was in prison and the fellow believers were interceding for him. Which is like our prayer meetings. To intercede. And the miracle that followed Peter was freed by an angel.

The thing that caught my attention is that while they were still in the house praying Peter knocked at their door. The girl who saw him was so surprised that with joy she told the others who was in the house. But guess what instead of saying Hallelujah! God is amazing they say she is mad. Not believing.

Sometimes I feel that the Lord has answered my prayers but I don't really believe He will so I keep on praying when the answer is standing knocking at the door and all I have to do is open the door and let the miracle in. How tragic to pray and not expect Him to answer. A really good wake up call for me to start praying and expecting. Seeing the answer knocking at the door.

I was sitting down and the picture of a computer game came to mind. Its those games that you know you play where you collect power or life or coins for points. Yup you might have played that. Not those shooting, blood splattering games. Well, I was reminded how life is like a game. Of course I am not talking about the part where you can bang the wall, fall off a clift and then come back all in one piece.

Is like we all have a starting point in the game and then we go through the game or life and along the journey is really all about knowing the right move and walking at the right spots. If you walk in an area that has no coins or power packs or anything you get nothing. If you have seen a child playing one of this games you would have notice that there are times when they stumble upon it as it was right in the middle of their path.

I really want to thank God for that. Imagine if you will only get something if you know which path to walk into. What a disaster it would be. See it does however mean if you already know the ins and outs of the path you will know which path to walk that will give you more benefits. Knowing the right path will be more rewarding but HIS mercies are so abounding that even when you walk on the not so rewarding path you get some along the way. Isn't that comforting? =)

This one week of school holidays is really good. Can wake up slightly later and sleep much later. Tied down with deadlines. Sis going to Singapore in a few hours time and the other sis busy with applications that will determine her future career.

Today I learn what it meant to be in the fast lane and one thing for sure I don't think I really like it. Nearly puke. On a normal road with so many cars 200mph is certainly not a joke. Guess this is where prayer comes in. Needless to say He watches over His children and that is why I am alive to tell the story.

I thank God that there were many cars on the road that help to reduce the speed. It made me think about my life. How sometimes HE puts little obstacles on the road so that I wouldn't speed through like a mad hatter and actually take the time to take life a little slower. I realised how when there was free way you can just speed through without having the breaks in life which of course when you meet in an accident would cause more damage due to the impact and how having those small little "so called annoying disturbance" help to keep us safe.

Well now I can proudly say I have sat in a car that drifts and drives way above the speed limit. Ok I guess proudly has been wrongly used. But has certainly entered my books of one of a kind experience.

Empty Hands held high
Such Small sacrifice
If not joined with my life
I sing in vain tonight

May the words I say
And the things I do
Make my lifesong sing
Bring a smile to you

Chorus:
Let my lifesong sing to You
Let my lifesong sing to You
I want to sign your name
to the end of this day
Knowing that my heart was true
Let my lifesong sing to You

LORD, I give my life
A Living sacrifice
To reach a world in need
To be your hands and feet

So may the words I say
And the things I do
Make my lifesong sing
Bring a smile to You

This song was playing at the back of my mind. I haven't heard this song for quite some time now but the words let my lifesong sing to You. Got my results today. Nothing to go goo gaa about but then "Hey who gave me those results?" plus with such a busy semester and workload there is nothing much I could ask for. Not taking things as they come or just swallowing the bitter pill because I didn't achieve flying colours but I really am grateful and thankful and I know its not because I have to succumb to it that I am saying this.

I wonder how please have I made Him.

Semester is so far from reach. I have another 2 more months before I can start sleeping late again and waking up without a routine time. Final year. Wish it wouldn't end so soon. I like work but I must say I like campus life. Its very different but certainly enjoying the stay at home. Would be better if I just stayed at home and not work. Haahaa!

Do hope that at the end of this holidays I have learnt much, grown much and also be more prepared for final year. Well the 2nd last paragraph of the song says all I that I would really want to say to Him. Sums it all up. Can't wait to see what's in stored. I guess its the anticipating feeling that keeps me going. Ok time for bed work calls first thing in the morning.
