out of no where..

today went to summit for my usual yoga lessons.. as i was real early i decided to go to payless books to find something to fill my time.. then i picked this book which was rather interesting.. when i went to pay, the lady behind the counter told me that i need to find 4 more books as the book is 5 for RM 12.. wah wah wah.. damn untung.. :D

then went to grab a bite while reading my book near a fountain.. while i was devouring my book, this voice beside me suddenly went "excuse me.." so i damn kepo look up i also dunno why.. sigh..

there was this lady next to me.. and she was talking to me.. *sweat* she asked me about this guardian sale that was going on a while ago.. and so i told her that now no more.. but got clothes sale instead.. so i suggested why don't she go check it out.. hoping to get back to my book.. but NO!! she had to ask whether i was still studying or working.. so i said i studying lar.. mana tahu so sibuk ask what i study and where wor.. so i said i studying medicine.. at university malaya.. (one small white lie.. mana tahu she stalker or something..)

then she told me that she got offer from UM for english course.. blah blah blah.. wah.. salute her man.. talk to me like her old friend only.. scary.. then she told me that she was christian.. and asked if i was too.. and i said yeah (i'm 100% Catholic and i'm proud of it.. so no lie there).. then she ask which church.. i said SFX which is technically a lie because i go to CKK..

then my phone rang.. thanks dad!! life saver.. then i politely and hurriedly said that i've got to go.. and cabut!! and on the way to see my dad i was thinking about what i've told her.. seems like quite a good lie.. haha.. cos UM and SFX are very close to each other.. lol..

PHEW!! next time people say excuse me i'll just made don't know lar.. lucky this time was quite a nice lady.. only a tad too friendly..

not that i'm being arrogant or anything.. but nowadays there are alot of crazy lunatics around.. better be more careful.. so friends, beware.. be alert at all times.. especially girls!!

my latest work.. (eley.. watch out.. your competitor is here hehe..)

and Jen's is writing sweet messages and poems.. :D

this one he got from somewhere..
i soared above the songbirds
and never heard them sing
i lived my life in winter
and then u brought the spring

and the one he wrote in anticipation of Genting trip :P
So, I will stand here forever,
If forever's what it takes,
because you are my forever,
and forever always waits.

and..
If roses are black
and violets are brown,
my love for you would never be found.
BUT roses are red
and violets are blue, all i wanna say is i love you..

ed's note: love you too dear..

God is watching over us..

God our Refiner

Malachi 3:3 says: "He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver." This verse puzzled some women in a Bible study and they wondered what this statement meant about the character and nature of God.One of the women offered to find out the process of refining silver and get back to the group at their next Bible Study.

That week, the woman called a silversmith and made an appointment to watch him at work.She didn't mention anything about the reason for her interest beyond her curiosity about the process of refining silver.

As she watched the silversmith, he held a piece of silver over the fire and let it heat up. He explained that in refining silver, one needed to hold the silver in the middle of the fire where the flames were hottest as to burn away all the impurities.

The woman thought about God holding us in such a hot spot; then she thought again about the verse that says: "He sits as a refiner and purifier of silver."

She asked the silversmith if it was true that he had to sit there in front of the fire the whole time the silver was being refined.

The man answered that yes, he not only had to sit there holding the silver, but he had to keep his eyes on the silver the entire time it was in the fire. If the silver was left a moment too long in the flames, it would be destroyed.

The woman was silent for a moment. Then she asked the silversmith, "How do you know when the silver is fully refined?" He smiled at her and answered, "Oh, that's easy-when I see my image in it"

If today you are feeling the heat of the fire, remember that God has his eye on you and will keep watching you until He sees His image in you..

sense of hopelesness..

i HATE it!!

ok ok.. i better justify my previous statements..

today went to pick my brothers up from their camp in Cheras.. then attended mass there.. during the Celebration of the Eucharist, a lady fainted.. and i just stood where i am not knowing what to do, ignoring the whole thing..

i guess not being able to help made me feel very helpless.. so from now on, i'll make sure to study HARDER so that history won't repeat itself.. guess this is God's way of telling me to concentrate more on my studies..

so, jia you!!

movie marathon

went to pyramid with Jen today (first official date *blush*).. initially wanted to go skating but i woke up and my legs were aching from yesterdays yoga.. darn it.. and considering the fact that he had training later at night so didn't want to tire him out :P

anyways, after brunch we went get tickets for both click and garfield.. garfield was nothing much to shout about.. was for the inner child in each one of us.. hehe..

but click was a whole different story.. it was funny, witty, and touching.. better not tell you guys the gists of it as it'll spoil the fun.. so go watch it ya'll.. the morale of the story is to appreciate all the good things that you have in life and to appreciate those around you..

then went to have waffles for tea.. guess that the best things are meant to be shared eh?? :P

when we got to his car i noticed that the window cleaners didn't clean the windows today.. :( did you know that pyramid actually offers window cleaning services for free?? then they'll stick this card under the wiper saying thank you for patronizing yada yada.. and even the time your window was cleaned.. so when your car is dirty you know where to head for a free clean.. hehe..

after sending me home Jen decided to go and have a chat with my mum.. so sweet :P hehe.. love you for it dear.. muax!! but now he knows more "dark secrets" about me.. crap..

-----for a more detailed version of the story click here-----

just wanna say..

happy birthday wei phoi!!

my dearest pet brother.. hehe.. this guy very naughty wan.. always bully me.. makes me regret ajaking him go yam cha.. haha..

but then again, thanks for all those times you were there for me.. for the times you kept me from falling asleep during tuition (or was it the other way around :P).. and for the pranks you pulled on me (i still remember.. the time you tricked me into believing that somebody whacked you up when all the while your hand was stained by some chemical.. cis..) and most of all for you companionship :D

so enjoy your last year of being a teen!!

love,
your sis..

to all my loved ones..

this post is dedicated to all those who are dear to me.. family, and friends.. and of course my dear.. :D

People have said time and again that it's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. But what they will probably never understand is how I'll always be a winner for having loved you.

love you all.. muax!!

happy birthday daddy!!

we love you!! muax muax..

hmm.. initially wanted to get his favourite chocolate banana cake from secret recipe but sadly the cake melts easily so we decided to get brownies walnut.. guess its his new favourite now.. hehe.. easily satisfied daddy.. :D

my daddy.. just like kaya toast bread (hard and stern on the outside but sweetest and softest on the inside)

God loves you..

and never ever forget that..

some times when things doesn't go your way, you'll say to yourself.. where's God?? He says He loves me but He is not here for me when i need Him the most.. well, you know what?? He is there..

and sometimes when you put your whole heart into a prayer wishing and hoping that He grants your heart deepest desires then WHAM He doesn't grant you that one wish.. you'll be devastated and again question where is God?? He is there.. its just that He knows better whats good for you and whats not..

you know, there was once i hoped that life would come with a step by step manual.. then things would be so much easier and everything would be perfect.. and then a good friend of mine said that life actually does come with a manual.. the BIBLE.. thanks alot.. then of course deer had to say that if life came with a manual, the first thing for me to do is to give him a hug.. (sigh.. great help huh??)

so.. here's your reward for "listening" to my thoughts.. a STORY!! woohoo..

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He wasgiven a slingshot to play with out in the woods. He practiced in thewoods, but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged,he headed back for dinner.

As he was walking back he saw Grandma's pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the head, and killed it. He was shocked and grieved. In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the wood pile, only to see his sister watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.

After lunch the next day Grandma said, "Sally, let's wash the dishes." But Sally said, "Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen." Then she whispered to him, "Remember the duck?" So Johnny did the dishes.

Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grandma said, "I'm sorry but I need Sally to help make supper." Sallyjust smiled and said," Well that's all right because Johnny told me he wanted to help." She whispered again, "Remember the duck?" So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help.

After several days of Johnny doing both his chores and Sally's, he finally couldn't stand it any longer. He came to Grandma and confessedthat he had killed the duck. Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug, and said, "Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing, but because I love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you."

Thought for the day and every day thereafter?

Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done ... and the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying, cheating, debt,fear, bad habits, hatred, anger, bitterness, etc.) whatever it is.

You need to know that God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing. He has seen your whole life. He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven. He's just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.

The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, He not only forgives you, but He forgets. It is by God's grace and mercy thatwe are saved.

Go ahead and make the difference in someone's life today.

Share this with a friend and always remember:

God is at the window
