Well is our country’s 49^th birthday!! HAPPY birthday to you- HAPPY birthday to you-MALAYSIA!! Wawaawawawawa!! After years of going to KLCC to watch the amazing fire work display (Never fail to amaze me every year…That is why I put the word “amazing” there…) But this year, our family did not go to watch the 15minute fire work (suppose to show our country’s wealth has...Wawaa…Just kidding…I have to be careful of what I say in my post so not to raise any issues).

With the zeal of independent day in our heart, see what we were doing as the clock hit 12!!

With Astro mum & auntie are watching Merdeka celebration live from KLCC on TV.

Dad, bro & sis pula was stuck with a Korean movie entitle Taegukgi(aka Korean version of Saving Privet Ryanon NTV7)(What is that got to do with Merdeka??)

Well for me I’m stuck with the internet!!! So one could see how unique our family celebrate Merdeka as the clock strike 12.

Happy Merdeka!!

Well after knowing that the Chinese CF has enough helpers in the game that they were planning for their camp that is going last for 3 days at Stella Merits (I don’t know how it spell k!?) in Penang Island (28-29/8/06).

I was right away feeling with a mix confusion of feelings. Happy because I was able to go back home which I really miss and it’s very boring in campus because I can’t go out as I like since I don’t have a motor licence. On the other hand, sad because I don’t think I would do anything back at home plus I can’t enjoy Penang alone. Wawawaawaw!

On the 28/9/06 I was on my way back home after treating Hong & Lim who took me to the bus station and THANKS God… I got a ticket!! Hop on the bus as it reaches the bust station at 11:15am. As the bus pass through the city as to get to Pudu Bust Station and the time was 4pm (I was stuck in a jam for 30minutes... What a good welcoming present !!?!) I saw a lot of changes in the city of Kuala Lumpur since the last time I left her 2 months ago. I really hope I could make use of this week at home because I’m going back to campus on the 3^rd Sep. Wawawawawa!!

Ah^ the busy city life. It’s the 49^th Merdeka also!!

You won’t see this in a small town of Parit Buntar or even Nibung tebal.

Since they don’t call STAR LRT any more this days & replace by Rapid KL.

What is that??What used to be a space land, now building are going to sit on it.

Home sweet home!!

Well, I used up my whole day to get my computer Conner to look new again!!

I got this from a discussion that was going on at Datuk Lim Kit Siang’s Blog (ok I’m no politic guy... I read this kind of blog to get the story from both sides on a particular issue that is happening around... Wawaawawaw….). I find it really interesting and would like to share it with all of you reader…

A Master and Disciple are next to a waterfall observing the scenery…

Disciple: Master, I feel drained. I have learned a great deal, but something is not right. I feel out of place. Out of sync with my surroundings. I feel uncomfortable.

Master: To obtain peace, your heart and mind must be in harmony.

Disciple: Yes, it is as though my mind is controlling my actions, but my heart is telling me that I don’t like it. What am I to do in this situation?

Master: Follow your heart. For it is from the heart where you find true happiness.

Disciple: But it is fearful. To drop everything, to let go, and simply follow my heart? It might be painful, and may be a great risk.

Master: Would it be as painful as living in an illusion created by your mind?

Disciple: Yes I understand what you mean. But in my mind at least I am planning ahead and accessing the risks. If I just follow my heart, it becomes the unknown; where I tread I do not know the outcome.

Master: It is where no one tread before, the unknown becomes the known. It is where the heart is tested for its wantings. It is where the truth beneath the veils of lies are revealed and the walls of ignorance can be taken down.

(Upon hearing this, after a long silence, tears swells up in the disciple’s eyes…)

Disciple: Master… I wish to experience the world… But…

(Master takes a brief look at the disciple, then narrows his eyes.)

Master: You can continue to be here listening to me, but one day you will only know what I know. If you leave you can gain other knowledge, and in the future become my Master, for I shall want to learn from you as well.

(Upon hearing this, the Disciple drops to his knees and bows to the Master…)

Disciple: You have given me the greatest lesson in life. For I now know the true quality of a Master that you are. You have shown me that arrogance has no purpose in one’s life. I shall be humble and learn from others as you have taught me. If one day I shall be a Master, I will strive to learn from others rather than feel proud or arrogant because of any knowledge I might have. I shall always seek for the unknown and follow my heart, rather than live an illusion of comfort or superiority created supposedly by my mind because of mastery of any limited subject.

The disciple bids farewell to his master and journeys onward to the path he is not familiar.

Recently I got my hands on one of the new Hillsong CD collection, which is Hillsong Kids with the title Super Strong God. All the songs in it were lead by Pastor Julia A'Bell along side with some Kids. The touching moment heat me when the songs entitle “Super Strong God” & “All I Need Is You/You Are My World” was being played… One could feel the present of God when the live recording was done, where KIDS sing their hearts out! Now I can only feel how older people feel when they here Youth worship the Lord. If you don’t believe me, you can go ask any FES worker or your church Youth pastor. One can see how proud they are when they see youth live their life for God!!

Lifting Up their hands

Looks like a youth concert to me!!I wish i could me like them!!

Point to ponder,

*How good is it if we could worship him with all our hearts!!

*would we sing prise to Him when we are in time of trouble?

*As we sing worship songs in church service or from the CD, do we understand what are we singing? Do we sing just because the music sounds good or because it is popular?

Hopping into the CF van as always, to go where no man has gone before, to explore new worlds and on our way to senior’s convocation!! (I’m a Star Trek fan ok…?) It was a miracle that we manage to make to USM Main Campus!! For me God really did show Himself to us who took the van to and from KKJ Campus!!

We declare:

Our God is an awesome God He reigns from Heaven above with wisdom, power, and love Our God is an awesome God!!

The journey to USM Main Campus was all but normal until we reach the toll to cross Penang Bridge so to cross over to the island, before the toll, the van experience engine failures!! Well, for me who was sitting behind, I wanted to complain about the poor driving skill Jason Ling because of the van die down several times as it was in a jam then. He pulled over to the side & we found out that the van was overheated!! There was smell of burn rubber in the air as Max open up the engine compartment (Smell like the smell burn rubber tires when you go up to Genting Highland) bluek*!!! Tension was in the air as it was 11:30am & we are late for the convocation!! After a short prayer to GOD (of cause lah… if not to Him, than to who??) we waited around 25 min and THANKS GOD, there came a “stand by” mechanic who was willing to help to fix the van!! Only we found out that the van’s radiator was empty. When he pored the water on the engine, it look as if we were making steamboat with the van’s engine (fuuiyyyyyooo.. The steam was WHITE!). Every thing was back to normal & we started rolling back on the road by 12pm sharp!!

Jason & Max Try to look "yeng"Thanks 2 this Uncle mechanic

Well we reach Main Campus safe & sound. Manage to meet up with some of our graduate seniors who looked very “Ying” in their graduation suits!! I meet up with Li Yee & her “kutip sampah” Gang… (kidding ya..) Wawawa!! Actually, they are serving the CF there in USM Main Campus as a community service!! Coo right?? When was the last time you were involved in a “gotong royong” project in your housing area? Or throw your own rubbish into the bin? This is what I call blessing the community! We had chat with each other (Dea..!). Of cause we introduce some of the CF member to them!! Really enjoying shearing each other’s experience since it has been some time after Camp Cameron especially those who went to Cam Camp with Max!! (Is a reunion for them.) BTW, we took more picture than those who graduate!!

Tun Shin With His Cool Suit

Me with some of the Camp Cam. Friends i meet there

This are the people who take more picture than the graduates there

We then head to Bukit Jambul shopping mall in Penang. Well we had bowling on the top floor but before that we hang around a hawker shop and we had our prayer meeting there!! (The 40days pray and fast for the nation) (All the uncle and aunties looking at us wandering what are they doing closing our eyes!!). Back to the bowling we had… I score the last against Jason Ling, Max, Christina & Derrick! Guess I can’t bowl!! (Hey, I lost so that I can bless others by letting them win.. right??!!). Wawawawaw…

Bowling, Max with his superb post, and me(last) with the bow going into the drain.

For some of us, our stomach was crying out for food as it was around 5pm+ because we are doing the prayer and fasting for the nation & we had a really light breakfast! Going for steamboat was a really appropriate thing to do!! (I eat a lot ok... You can’t see by my size right?? Wawawawaw… don’t judge a book by it’s cover!!). For those who have weight problem and can’t stop eating especially girls don’t be jealous ya! Wawawa!! Anyway we ate like we don’t eat for 10years. If you were there, you would feel as if you have gone back in time to the dinosaur age. Eating flash with no mercy (Hey.. of cause we cook 1^st la!! I said already “AS IF” but we are all modern people, WE COOK to eat!! ok?). God was there with us although we ate with “no mercy”!! 1^st, half way while we were steamboat-ing our food, bits of rain drop started poring down on us & the sky then was DARK!! Me, Aaron & some other started singing gospel songs with the intention that the rain may stop. God works wonder! The rain stop! We continue to eat like barbarians!! Wawaawa… was a great experience having free flow steamboat as we talk & talk since that is the only thing we can do after we are filled with seafood!! We spend our time there from 630pm until 1030pm!!

Well as you can see we are all exited at first!!

You can see 2 diffrent groups here, 1=those who are not full & "the keep eating group" 2=the "too full group & I've noting to do"I think this is cause bt too much food!

Left Penang island with singing and sleeping in the van!! Wawaawawa…!!!
