Not feeling well today. I could hardly drag myself out of bed this morning! I am suppose to wake up 6 in the morning but I kept on pressing the snooze button and went back to bed. At last, I stop the alarm clock and wanting to get out from bed. I then realized that I can’t! My body was totally out of my control for few minutes and my nose was blocked. I didn’t have the strength at all to even wake up. There I was, staring at my ceiling with my eyes half opened. Yes, I did went back to sleep eventually. I only manage to drag myself out of the bed at 7am. Thank God for His alarm clock! I felt the dizziness and realized that I was having a slight fever. DARN! I got no time to loose and I will be late if I am not out of my bed!

Instantly, I grabbed my towel and had a quick bath. Round about 730am, I was out of the house. Well, I think all things are truly well planned by God! The traffic was smooth and there is no sign of jam at all! I think most of the people are excited about tomorrow’s public holiday and decided to take off today as well. =) I arrived safely at 8am and I decided to take a nap in my car. Yes, I was super blur and I forgot to put an alarm to wake me up… This is what happened when you are sick! FORGETFUL AND BLUR! No I was not late for work, in fact I manage to wake up (miraculously) at 845am! Ahh.. God is truly good to me!

Here I am, before my laptop, feeling so darn blur and sick…. Well, one thing I can be sure of… My head kept on thinking about the message I heard and the pictures I saw yesterday. I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about the kids in Sri Lanka. How they were to go through their day to day life and how they were to appreciate things that we constantly take for granted. Are you grateful to have a house? A bed? A toothbrush? Toothpaste maybe? Well, you must be thinking 633 is crazy but look at other people and their life! How many of them have the privilege to have a house with cement as their flooring? How many of them have the privilege to use the toilet? How many of them are privilege to have a bed to sleep on? There are so many out there, living a simple life. Too simple until the extend that they don’t even have furnitue in their house! Are we not suppose to be thankful people and appreciate what God has given onto us? Truly, He is good but how many of us are taking His blessing for granted?

Lord, help me to be a thankful person and to appreciate your most precious gift from above.

Krishna Curry House

Today lunch was interesting.. My colleague brought me to Krishna Curry House together with other technicians. It is located at Jalan 222, Petaling Jaya. Wao... I have no reason at all to resist their mutton! It's SUPERB! Hahaha... It was so soft and tender... Their way of cooking things are quite unique. They actually served in claypot form (if you order it). Heheh... One thing I like about that place is.. I am able to eat with my hands and nobody is staring at you with a strange look. ^.^ Well if you like Indian food, do try this shop, especially the mutton =)


One thing caught my attention... It was their bill! I forgot to snap a photo of it though. It was filled with pictures, pictures and only pictures. There were no words like "Chicken", "fish" or "mutton" but pictures of them! Hahhaha... I find it quite funny when I looked at the thing... Hehehe... I will snap some photos if I have the chance to go there again ^.^

Phil 3:13 - 14

Xim wu tam pok tia... Xiang ka gui eh lang ai tor aja... Xim zia cheng cho wa kar qi boi jip ke eh. Tapi xim an juar ani si tia? Lang jiu si ani kuan... Ani tam xim, ani pai si, ani boh nao!

Sorry readers, just want to post this to remind myself of something very important. Please ignore if you can't understand a word that I type. =)

RIP Bugs bunny...

An interesting start for my third week of work. I didn't have much sleep a day before Monday as I was awaken by a sick rabbit during the wee hours. The poor rabbit was suffering before she left me behind not knowing what raelly went wrong with her. Yes, she is no more around now but I can never forget her looks on that day.

Carrying her one last time before she left me was truly speechless. Just a second ago, she was alive and jumping and in splite second, the heart stop beating. Things in life is so uncertain. In fact, nothing is certain in life. Can you be so certain that you are able to spent all the money that you earn? Can you be certain that you will still have 10 years on earth? What about your job? Do you think you can secure it for another 10 years? Truly human work in vain if they are focusing on things of the earth. You can be so successful in your life but you left out one thing... How sure are you that you have a "tomorrow" to live on? Just like the rabbit, I didn't expect it to die few hours after I brought it back home. But it did...

I couldn't stop but to think of what King Solomon wrote on Ecclesiastes, "Meaningless, meaningless. Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless.". I picked up the book and flip to the end of the chapter and remind myself of something important in life..

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter:

Fear God and keep His commandments,

For this is man’s all.

For God will bring every work into judgment,

including every secret thing, whether good or evil.

Working world...

Dear diary,

After approximately 2 months of so called 'holidays', I'm back into the working world.. It has been a week since I started work. I'm currently working in an IT company and holding an interesting position. :)

My work for now will be monthly SLA reporting. I haven started anything yet but I'm currently 'playing' and observing their previous data. Meanwhile, I'm learning some new things regarding MS Excel from the internet. :) Ah.. It has been awhile since I last use Excel.. This will definately be a good time to polish up my skills :)

Hmmm... Still not familiar with the reporting yet but I believe, in due time, everything will be within my finger tip. I have to admit that I'm still feel raw with the environment but thank God for the people are nice to me over there :)

Well, I'm enjoying my time now in the office as there's not much work for me. However, I can foresee that it will be hectic in the coming week. I shall anticipate it and be ready for the battle! Gambateh neh!

The Test... Are you ready?

I was browsing Facebook this afternoon and I saw a video shared by a friend of mine. The video instantly caught my attention as it is related to McDonald's. Oh yes, I am a McD fans Emmm.... "Was a McD fan" maybe? Details are as below:-


Content of the video 1: An experiment carried out by Morgan on McD food.
Purpose: To show us how food is broken down in our body.





OK, I have to say that it is DISGUSTING!!! As a French fries lover, I really wonder what on earth McD used to produce their French fries. Aren't they using POTATOES? *Pondering how much of McD French fries I have consumed throughout my whole life*


Out of curiosity, I went to YouTube and tried to search for a person who has carried out another experiment on the decomposition of McD food but this time for a longer period of time. Well, you bet I found one! Please be prepared to see what happens to McD food after 4 YEARS....


= Video 2 =





OK.... Interesting facts for the day....... Now I can understand why people can really gain weight by consuming fast food! That is because the food they are consuming are not breaking down as how it is expected to! My next question will be...... McD anyone? =P

The Lord shall be my strength

一切的付出我都看得见，但不知为何主有此安排。心底却实很混乱但在我最软弱的时候，上帝啊，请你应允我依靠你。让我一心一意的跟随你吧。

Tidakkah kautahu, dan tidakkah kaudengar? TUHAN ialah Tuhan kekal yang menciptakan bumi dari ujung ke ujung; Ia tidak menjadi lelah dan tidak menjadi lesu, tidak terduga pengertianNya. Dia memberi kekuatan kepada yang lelah dan menambah semangat kepada yang tidak berdaya. Orang muda menjadi lelah dan lesu dan teruna-teruna jatuh tersandung, tetapi orang yang menanti-nantikan TUHAN mendapat kekuatan baru; mereka seumpama rajawali yang naik terbang dengan kekuatan sayapnya; mereka berlari dan tidak menjadi lesu, mereka berjalan dan tidak menjadi lelah.

Be watchful

Something interesting that I read from Sunday School Teaching Network...

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.

3 wishes...

Interesting short story I read through The Star.

A King's 3 wishes
After conquering many kingdoms, the great Greek king Alexander was returning home when he fell seriously ill. Nothing his generals did could cure him.


With death staring him in the face, Alex realised how his conquests, his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no value to him as he lay waiting to breathe his last. All he wanted then was to go home, see his mother's face and bid her a fond farewell. But knowing that he would not have time to reach his distant homeland, he summoned his generals and told them:


" I will depart from this world soon. I have 3 wishes which you must carry out without fail."


With tears flowing down their cheeks, all his men could do was nod.


"My first desire is that my physicians alone must carry my coffin."


After a long pause, the king continued, " when my coffin is being carried to the grave, the path leading to the graveyard should be strewn with the gold, silver and precious stones which I have in my treasury."


Quite exhausted by then, he said softly: "Finally, after I'm gone, let both my hands dangle out of my coffin."


The people who had gathered around the king wondered about his strange requests. But no one dared to ask about the rational behind them. Alex's favourite general then kissed his hands and pressed them to his heart. "I assure your highness that your wishes will be fulfilled. But why?"


At this the ailing monarch took a deep breathe and said: " I would like the world to know the 3 lessons I have just learnt."


"I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realise that no doctor can cure every ailment. Doctors cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let not people take life for granted."


"Strewing gold, silver and other riches along the path to the graveyard will serve to remind everyone that I might have spent my life accumulating riches, but I cannot even take a piece of gold with me when I die. So let people realise that it is a sheer waste of time to chase wealth."


"As for the final wish to leave my hands dangling out of the coffin, I want people to know that I came empty-handed into this world and I will leave the same way."


With these words, the king closed his eyes as death conquered him.


(Taken from The Star, dated 6th September 2009)

...Food for thought...

On his deathbed, the king raelised those crucial lessons about life. What about you? Are you still not convince that all things in this world is meaningless? Did not the Bible told us that through Solomon? (Ecclesiastes) King Solomon was wealthy, filled with wisdom, have tonnes of servants, definitely tried many things of the world, have beautiful wives and kids etc. He was practically an"idol" for all isn't it? Don't you wish to be in Solomon's shoe, to enjoy all those hings? But look at what Solomon said in the conclusion of Ecclesiastes...

Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter:
Fear God and keep His commandments,
For this is man’s all.
For God will bring every work into judgment,
Including every secret thing,
Whether good or evil.

Thus, chose wisely on what you are investing in this life... Remember, fear God and keep His commandments.

John Calvin

(taken from: http://www.etsu.edu/cas/history/resources/Private/Faculty/Fac_To1877ChapterDocFiles/ChapterImages/Ch3CALVIN.jpg)

Friday Youth Fellowship was interesting as we broke out from the norm and did a biography section instead. An influencial French reformist was picked and the story began....


I am not going to present you his biography here as it will be too long for me to do so. (For more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Calvin). But I would like to highlight something that triggered me to put on my thinking cap regarding this guy.


John was a simple and normal guy. However, many took notice of him not because of his looks, his family background etc but of his single-mindedness towards God. The things that he preached was nothing but the truth and only the truth he cling on to until the day he died.


I believe he really struggled in some part of his life as God placed him in a situation whereby John knew that it was God's will towards him but he didn't want to obey it. Nevertheless, who can win the almighty God? If that is His will, thus, He will ensure that His selected one will carry out His will according to His plan. So it was, John at last did what was required out of him willingly with God's strength. How many of us out there are willing to give their heart to God and obey even though what is in God's mind is different than ours? Well, I have to say that it's truly a big slap on myself as many times I chose to go on my own path and my own ways instead of His. How about you? Are you too rebelling against Him?


Secondly, John's life was truly very discipline. How many of us are truly having a discipline life? Yes, many might said what is the use of discipline life but think with me for a moment, if you are not discipline in your life, how much time have you wasted throughout all these years on earth? If you are discipline, you won't face the situation of "doing last minute work", you won't face the situation of "panic because work is undone" etc. Talking is easier than action, thus, am I doing what is necessary to cultivate discipline life? Ahhh... Sadly, the word "discipline" is still far away from me, I have to catch up and truly commit my weaknesses to Him for a changed life!


Last but not least, after all these years, John Calvin's is still 'among us'... Why? Why nobody remember you great great great grandparents but people remember who John Calvin was? Why? Because John Calvin devoted and invested his whole life into God's word and as it is written in the bible, "The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever." (Isaiah 40:8). Are you investing your life on the right thing? Or are you investing your life on worldly things (i.e. family, money, job etc)?


All in all, the whole section was a soul seeking section, well at least it is for me. It is a challenge put forth to me to check on my life. Am I living as howHe wants me to live? Am I glorifying His name as how I ought to? Am I being the light and salt of the world? May I too have the eyes that focus upon heavenly things, ears to listen to His words and a submissive heart to Christ.

Press on!

Reading Ecclesiastes for the very first time. Apparently, I am attracted to Solomon's writing. Have to admit that reading the passage really search my heart. Currently in the state of fighting with my own self. The will & desires within me are so strong until the extend I wish to give up and lay back.


There is a voice within me telling me to go on, go on, and go on.. Suddenly, it reminds me of Job. A man whom when through many trials yet he was still able to say the word "Naked I came from my mother's womb, and naked I will depart. The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away; may the name of the LORD be praised."(Job 1:21). What was Job thinking back then? What was is motivation to cling on to God, though many things took place in his life?


Only one thing I can be certain of... God is a faithful God. He is a God that fulfill all His promises. No, not one is forfeited. Yes, though things are "not in place" in your eyes but be of good cheer for it is in place in God's eyes. As God said "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29: 11), therefore, rejoice in your heart and serve Him with all your heart, knowing that He is in control of all things.

Tiring..

不断的飞翔。。 。渐渐的觉得疲惫。。。 歇了一会儿， 看看世界，才发觉我原来错过了很多东西。。。

读了一句很有意义的话语。。

I am only one, but still I am one.
I cannot do everything, but still I can do something;
and because I cannot do everything,
I will not refuse to do something that I can do.

=Helen Keller=

愿我学会为上帝付出一切。。

God's way and not man's way...

I was reading an article from the newspaper and it triggered me to think a little...


=Story=
There was once a priest being invited to a foreign land, to a church nearby the sea. As he prepared himself, he was praying earnestly to God for good weather, free from traffic jam as well as journey mercy there. However, as he drove, the rain doesn't seem to abate but it became worse. He was disappointed and sad. In his heart, he can't stop thinking why is God not listening to his prayers? If the weather is so bad, who will probably come to church and listen to my preaching?


As he arrived, his heart was not in peace at all while he stepped in the church. To his amazement, the church was packed with people! He couldn't believe his eyes and wonder what was happening! The native preacher approached him and warmly welcome his coming.


"What.... What happened?"
"Ahh.... Because all the natives are fishermen, however, because the rain is too strong for them to go out the sea for fishing, thus all the young and old are here to listen to your sermon."


God's grace, mighty works, miracles, who can predict them?
Accidents, wars, man-made accidents and many more are continuously happening around us...
Why don't we learn to submit all things in God's hand?


=End=


Short yet meaningful, isn't it? Well, at least to me, it is..

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, says the LORD (Jeremiah 29: 11 - 14)

Love without degree..

Ironic == Characterized by often poignant difference or incongruity between what is expected and what actually is (Definition from WordWeb)

握着曾经被我用一把火烧的信, 信的右上角深深的留下痕迹... 阅读我亲手写的信, 心真的很酸. 但, 当我回想与上帝的约定, 上帝的恩典, 我, 渐渐的笑了. =) 真的很感激上帝一路来的带领. 如不是他的看顾, 我想我就不是现在的我了. 我, 渐渐的看见上帝对我的爱. 我虽不能了解为何上帝有此安排，但我清楚了解上帝是上帝。他的安排永是最好的。

When will I be able to see such beautiful scene?

Lunch time =)

4 hungry girls, *I wonder where is the guy* led by Frodo Shan Shang, went to seek out food in an obscure place. After many sore trials and tribulations (getting rundown by speeding cars etc.), they reached the place. However, the threat from within loomed its ugly head and the fellowship was nearly broken... yada yada... captioning time :P

(Quote from 737's FB)

For a moment, I truly enjoy "acting stupid" in front of the camera... But on the other hand... Maybe not?? Why?? See.... What kind of "DISTORTED" story came out from a 'peaceful,' 'pleasant', 'enjoyable' lunch time of mine...
(Link to photos: http://www.new.facebook.com/shanshang633#/album.php?aid=124946&id=664096807&ref=mf)

Deb, Willy, 737 & wife decided to drop by and have lunch with me today. Well, to be honest, that one hour seems to passed by very fast! Work was SUPER HECTIC today as my "client's " demand became more and more 'interesting'.. Thus, a short one hour break is truly "heaven" to me as that's when I truly throw aside all things and just enjoy my lunch together with my 'LOTR's cartoons' =P

Well, I believe the pictures + captions did a great job in describing my lunch hour today... THOUGH most of the captions are exaggerated... =P

Thanks for dropping by ^.^

A feeble leg..

Being asked by some for not updating my blog... Thus, here I am, fixing my eyes before the PC, writing this post.


A short 1 month seems unreasonably long to me.. Many things came about and decisions need to be made. Having that letter in hand, I looked at it and quietly listening to what she has to said to me before I leave the room. Somehow, I doubt for a moment, but when I leave the room, I know for a fact that, that is the path that I should take. Having the peace in heart, I cling on to my decision and may all things goes well =)

"There's a way tat seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death."

This will be a hectic month for me again... Sigh.. Yearning for a break!!! Truly, I am exhausted. The tiredness is beyond words. I truly yearn for a holiday and hopefully after this month, things will be more settled down in life. Maybe I will find a weekend and drive down to see my granny.. I miss my hometown =(


"Lord Jesus, I sin. Grant that I may never cease grieving because of it, never be content with myself, never think I can reach a point of perfection. Kill my envy, command my tongue, trample down self. Give me grace to be holy, kind, gentle, pure, peaceable, to live for Thee and not for self, to copy Thy words, acts, spirit, to be transformed into Thy likeness, to be consecrated wholly to Thee, to live entirely to Thy glory.

Deliver me from attachment to things unclean, from wrong associations, from the predominance of evil passions, from the sugar of sin as well as its gap; that with self-loathing, deep contrition, earnest heart searching I may come to Thee, cast myself on Thee, trust in Thee, cry to Thee, be delivered by Thee.

O God, the Eternal All, help me to know that all things are shadows, but Thou art substance, all things are quicksands, but Thou art mountain, all things are shifting, but Thou art anchor, all things are ignorance, but Thou art wisdom.

Lord, help me, for I am often lukewarm and chill; unbelief mars my confidence, sin makes me forget Thee. Let the weeds that grow in my soul be cut at their roots; grant me to know that I truly live only when I live to Thee, that all else is trifling. Thy presence alone can make me holy, devout, strong and happy. Abide in me, gracious God. "
