Simple Thought In My Mind

A Gift from God

2010-09-20T09:54:00.002+08:00

I am still so amazed and stunned when I decided to write this testimony. God just did miracle through His servants. I felt so blessed to be His vessel including Joshua and his mum.

We thought we are just "ordinary people" that our power is limited, our spiritual gift is limited and our strength is limited. But praise the Lord, as His power is tremendous, His spiritual gift is abundant (Hebrew 2:4, 1 Cor 12:7 ~A spiritual gift is given to us so we can help each other.), the strength that He provided is unmeasurable. (Isaiah 40:26 ~Look up into the heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of His great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing.)

God wants to set us free. He wants each of us to live a life without bondages. But that is only one way we can obtain this which is to believe that the truth will set us free and that Jesus is the truth. (John 8:32~ And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.)

I praise the Lord as He strengthens me. I thanks God for letting us to practice our faith and seek His help and strength instead of using own ability. (Matthew 17:17) Apart from Christ I can do nothing. Therefore it was because we choose to depend on Him completely and abided in the Christ in order to glorify out Heavenly Father.

John 15:5-8~ "Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them , will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me is thrown away like useless branch and withers. Such branches are gathered into a pile to be burned. But if you remain in me and my words remain in you, you may ask for anything you want, and it will be granted! When you produce much fruit, you are my true disciples. This brings great glory to my Father."

I know that I shall continue to seek God's guidance. I trust that He will grant me Holy Spirit to lead me through my way confidently. (Romans 15:13~ I prayed that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of Holy Spirit.) When God's timing is right, He will use us in miracle ways, above our thoughts and strength so that we shall uplift all the praises and glories to Him alone.

Acts 1:7-8~ The Father alone has the authority to set those dates and times, and they are not for you to know. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. and you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere - in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

I truly treasure this love, this gift and this experience. Didn't ever though of God will use such an ordinary person like me but God proof me wrong for His calling and choices are not within our assumption. I trust that God's gift is superb and will continue to flow in me. All glories and honors beling to Him alone. Amen

Romans 11:29~ For God's gifts and His call can never be withdrawn.

我期待被了解

2010-08-07T01:10:00.002+08:00

我期待你可以用我明白的方式来表达。。

我期待这方式我能接受之余你也会开心。。

我期待你了解我的恐惧感和不安。。

我期待我的提醒不会让你觉得烦。。

我期待我可以看见你的主动。。

我期待上帝能触动你的心让你明白这一切。。

The Last Word - Amen

Experiment with My Ring

2010-05-19T22:26:00.004+08:00

I think just wearing the ring on my finger is kinda boring. So today, I did some little experiment on it.

What to do, I was a science student. I always amazed on how they can cut the diamond into so many facets and each facet can reflex light so clearly.

Usually, we see diamond shines as a reflexion of light.

Today, I use my laser pointer to shoot directly into the diamond. The result is shown as attached photo. It looks much more amusing than what is taken in the picture as some tiny reflexion cannot be captured by my camera.

It looks even nicer if I off the room light. I guess this will be my free time game for quite some time.... haha.. The diamond indulgence~

The Proposal + Engagement

2010-05-19T21:16:00.007+08:00

I should have post this blog a few months back. But was waiting for the right time. Finally, today is the day.

Let's goes back to 10 Feb 2010, a day to remember. A day which darling and I shared the most unforgettable day together.

The story started at 32-The Mansion. My darling invited me for a special dinner (which I already can guess what he is trying to do... hehe). I always tell darling, do not give me a "huge surprise" as I am not sure my weak heart can take it or not. haha... But of course, still went with curiosity and expectation. Not the venue nor the procedure that I'm looking forward to, but his sincerity.

Well, I think no one will have mood to talk about any other things else when the stomach is empty. Haha.. so we should focus on the food first. The atmosphere in the restaurant was great. We were given a table at the corner. Romantic as I always dreamt of. (Despite of the noisy groups surrounding us).
Frankly speaking, I can't recall how was the food tasted like... nor what kind of food I'd ordered. As it was amusing to observe my darling reaction for the whole night. He looked nervous yet lovely.

I kept waiting.. wondering when will be the "moment". Then came the waiter with a bouquet of flower when I was about to have my dessert.Wow...Lilies, my all time favourite.

I knew that darling will bought me flowers but didn't expect it to be such a big bouquet. While I busy checking on the flowers.. darling is already down on his knee. The 2 huge groups around us (add up to 20 ppls i guess) start to cheer and clap. I just don't know how to react but blushed. Never expect to have so many spectators.

I looked at darling as he stared at me full of passion. The night was intoxicating.. His words will stay in my heart forever but I will not share it here. As it is meant for darling and I only. And you can guess, my answer is surely YES.

This is the solitaire ring that darling got for me. I love it.
I guess both of us were indulged with the moment and with each other so much that we don't even remember to take a picture for memory.

It was when darling sent me home, then only I asked my housemate to help us to snap a photo.

Well, I think an engagement is not complete if only me has the ring while darling don't. I'd been thinking to get him a ring as well to show that we both are engaged. So finally, today, I got him one.

I guess no girl will buy her fiance a ring. But I want to be an extraordinary girl for my darling. To show him that I love him as much as he loves me (though the rings value are not equally same). Hahaha.... Anyhow, I just wish to say " Darling, I treasure all the moments we had and I wish to experience the rest of the moment in my life with you "

Caught a Cutie in QBM

2010-05-08T09:17:00.005+08:00

Was having dinner with darling in QBM yesterday... While coming down from the escalator..suddenly saw this huge dolly... so i quickly took out my phone and snap a photo.

When this pinky thing saw me snapping her photo.. immediately running in my direction, give me a shock.... =.=" so finally took a photo with her due to her "overwhelming" reaction... haha

Then found it is actually Neway Promotion Dolly... er.. should i call it dolly? dunno what to call it...

Am I Ready to Walk Into Marriage?

2010-04-29T22:51:00.003+08:00

It is so wonderful to know there will be 4 couples in queue to have their wedding from Oct this year until next year.

Pastor has been busy to give all of us marriage course and see each of us personally to guide and advise us. The first class was indeed a stressful one for me as my fiance was not available to attend together with me. Therefore, I need to make notes and explain everything about that day lecture to him. Phew~

This question keep popping in my mind recently. "Am I really ready for a marriage life ?"
Wondering it is only me will think so or most of the bride to be will have such feeling.
I guess there is no perfect person in the world and I don't really looking for a 100% perfect guy as well (only Jesus is perfect).

But am I ready to take all the consequences in a marriage?

After my 1 to 1 session with pastor, i guess i was bit discouraged and yet encouraged at the same time. Sound confused huh? Me too! haha...

What was I afraid of? The marriage life, the house chore, the husband, the children, MIL, losing of singlehood, financial issue, affair? I can't really find the answer for this.
but if you ask me, do I love this man? I am certainly yes.

(* stopped for 10 min as receiving a call from Uncle Bernard, a short talk to him suddenly inspire me of a verse)

Psalm 23:4 ~ Even though I walk through the valley of darkness, I fear no evil for You are with me.

Well, i guess Holy Spirit just speak to me that no matter what circumstance i am in, as long as i hang on to God, He will lead me through. And God's intension for marriage is certainly a good and blissful one.

Dinner with Family at Kuala Sepetang

2009-11-09T22:03:00.002+08:00

One of the best moment back home is having dinner with family.
My sisters seems to be very good in searching for nice restaurant.
This time, we all purposely drive for around half an hour from Taiping town into this seafood restaurant in Kuala Sepetang.
It is built at the shore where u can see all the fishing boats park all around you.

The appetizer.. fried baby crab.. very crispy and tasty.

Must eat some green vege for good health also oh.

For those who doesn't feel like eating rice, Wat Tan Ho is a good choice.

Deep fried squid with egg and salted egg. The fried squid is quite oily but the egg and salted egg do add some credit.

Mantis Prawn~! Though everyone say it is delicious, I still won't try. Because it looks ugly.

Well, I still prefer prawn. This assam prawn is yummy.

Steam fish.. simple and healthy.

There were 12 of us and the whole meal cost RM205. Is it consider cheap or expansive? I am not sure but I do enjoy the time together. ^^

Happy Birthday to Me ~!

2009-10-12T21:11:00.003+08:00

Home Made Popiah~!

2009-08-27T00:19:00.003+08:00

Recently mum is so into making popiah. If I'm not mistaken, it was like continously 4 weekends, she is making popiah. But I can't deny it really taste good and is healthy food as well.

I can wrap popiah very well since young (well trained).
Let me show u.

Lettuce, has to be fresh.

This is french beans fried with meat. I had to pick out the meat pieces as I don't like eating it. :p

"Tao geh" and "ku chai"

Ta~da~... the most important dish for popiah. Without it, the popiah will be just another pan cake without soul. haha... This is the "bang kuang cha".

This is the popiah wrapped by me. See, my skill is good ler? Neat and tidy. hehe...

Thanks to my dear mum for cooking this. It was such a fun time wrapping popiah.

In My Brokeness

2009-07-29T09:20:00.002+08:00

I do not really know how to categorise my mood and emotion right at the moment. I thought I should be happy and relief that it is over. I thought I should come out from the stressed emotion of the past 7 weeks. I thought the hurting words are not in purpose. I thought I forgive. I wish I forget. I prayed that I want to let all these behind.

But the truth is - I wake up this morning, still find myself in brokenness, spiritually. My self confident, my heart, my value, all crushed into pieces.

May be my expectation is wrong. I thought the relationship with Jesus is sweeter everyday than before. It turns out I am down down down all the way in my heart.

So I thought, perhaps I'm not working hard enough to make the relationship sweet.. So I work harder. I work harder. I work harder. But the reward for all that was gradually increasing depression, confusion and disappointment.

Then I question, should I run away from this? Just leave everything behind and perhaps find a job oversea where no one knows me. Is't I am not in His favor and I should stop here instead of keep irritates Him and His people. Isn't God is love? Why I only see people in disguise. It makes me sick. Is it because my serving not in His favor? Or because I am so unbearable in His sight?

Again, I drown in brokenness.

I know God must have mad at me this time. I would not have been surprised to hear God express anger about my spiritual inadequacies. He has all the reasons to shame me, to blame me, to be disgusted by my spiritual failure and disappointed in me.

I am spiritually bankrupt. But, I still can't change the fact that He is the only true living God. He is my God. My beloved Father in Heaven. Surprisingly He speaks to me even when my spiritual resources have been dried out, stolen, depleted, He pronounces blessing.

Psalm 34:18 ~ The Lord is close to the brokenhearted; He rescues those whose spirits are crushed.

Psalm 51:17 ~ The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.

He did not despised my spiritual brokenness, rather, He sees it as a kind of worship. God understands how difficult it is to let go. But God also recognizes the spiritual maturity that is being shaped in us during this process. God treasures every single changed in me. He hugs me tight to His heart even when I was collapsed in brokenness. He wipes away my tears with His loving hands.

Who am I to deserve this?

Ya, I do not need to care what people may say or think of me anymore. God knows it all. He sees what people don't. He treasures me in everyway. That worth all. I will sit here, waiting Him to restore every single part of me. Let Him bandages my wounds and heals me completely.

Psalm 126:5-6 ~ They who sow in tears shall reap in joy and singing. He who goes forth bearing seed and weeping [at needing his precious supply of grain for sowing] shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

A Nice Restaurant to Intro - Lily's Vegetariankitchen

2009-07-10T23:51:00.007+08:00

A nice vege restaurant with variety of food. Recommended by Shi Hui. I really enjoyed the food so I was thinking that I should share this with all of my friends.

Something different from the ordinary vege restaurant.

This is the wan tan mee.

This is called "xiang chun mian" 香椿面。 Looks nice but the taste is so so only.

The two noodles we tried were not really satifying. I would recommend you to try the rice.

Kebabs~! This is really good. Highly recommended. Cost RM6 for 6 sticks.

So do the Satays, RM6 for 6 stick. I didn't expect it to be such delicious.

Fish and Chips. RM7 if I'm not mistaken.

Chicken Chop. The gravy taste good with an incredibly sweet smell.

Green Curry can really spice up your taste bud.

There is also other choices such as nasi lemak, laksa, pasembur, mee goreng, steak, pizza, burger, popiah, soup noodle etc etc.

Located at 98, Noble House, Lorong Madras.

One Year Passed, Many More to Come...

2009-07-08T07:01:00.009+08:00

Thanks God for leading us through the last whole year. It is a blessing that we can celebrate our very 1st anniversary.
Darling gave me a surprise by bringing a bouquet of roses.

^^ I was totally not aware of that. As usual, quickly posting with the flower for photo shooting.. hehe

At 1st we plan to have a formal dinner celebration at TGI Friday but we end up in Pizza Hut eating Vege Lover as both of us are fasting meat for whole week.

Anyway, the food is not that important at all. The important thing is we still can celebrate the day together.

Though our feet are different size, we'll continue to walk together on this journey.

Prayed together at the beach. Asking for God's futher guidance and protection.

A simple yet meaningful day~!

你要跟谁走？？

2009-05-30T23:44:00.005+08:00

可否有人问过你这句话？

可能，你会联想到，一对离婚夫妇在逼问孩子的选择。跟爸爸，还是妈妈？

或者，你会联想到，一个同时喜欢上两个男人的女人，正被问着，到底她要谁.

还是，当你的生活没有方向时，不懂要附和朋友，情人，老板，父母还是孩子的信念时，就会浮起这个念头。

我！很简单。无论如何，我只要跟着耶稣走。紧紧的跟随他。

因唯有他，使我心满意足，使我平安喜乐。

主，我跟你走，往普天下走，天涯海角緊緊抓住我。

主，我跟你走，往普天下走，死蔭幽谷緊緊跟你走。

開啟我的眼，信心的雙眼，看那天使天軍在身邊。

塑造我的心，謙卑地聆聽，你的話語深植我心。

因你是萬王之王，萬主之主，有你跟著我，我讓怕什麼？　　　

因你已戰勝死亡，得勝君王，這信心的路我永不回頭。

The Potter's Hand

2009-05-20T10:01:00.010+08:00

This is my very own experience after finished my art work and God spoke to me through Genesis.

Genesis 1: 27 ~ So God created human beings in His own image. In the image of God he created them: male and female he created them.

It is not easy for me to mold the clay into flower or animal figure yet it is not perfect at all. When I think back how I started to mold these in clumsy way, then I started to imagine how was God's feeling when He was creating the earth, day and night, sky and land, the sun and the moon, animals and plants, , and finally Adam and Eve.

It took me a few attempts to shape the animals figure or the morning glory as I am not skillful enough. I was thinking, this simple cartoon, without life, without internal parts also took me such a long time. I can now imagine how God created a single cell, combined it into a tissue, then organs then bone, nerve and blood vessel, muscle, covered with fine skin, then shaped the eyes, ears, nose, mouth and fashioned us with hairs. This is spectacular!

God created Man and Woman last. In fact He created man first then woman (so woman is the last). But this doesn't mean man nor woman are less important. In fact, He has created everything, felt satisfy but not complete. After so many pieces of work. I bet when He creates man, His skill will be so good and fine. Furthermore, only human being is shaped according to God's image - the perfect image.

When I finished molding a pair of bears, I did felt something missing. Of course the bears are cute but not completed until I enhanced it with some ribbons . Then again I imagine when God created man, He felt good but not perfect. Finally after He finished the creation of woman, He must had took a few seconds, looked around once again and amazed with His own work and says : " Phew~..Wow~.. this is very good ! "

Genesis 1:31 ~ Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good!

I'd read Genesis plenty of times, but didn't have such a strong feel about how God created all of us until now when I finally has a chance to be a potter, the words become so alive for me to understand. Mine is just a tiny minor project while God's piece of work is splendid!

We, human being has such privilege to be loved and treasured by our heavenly Father, God of all creation. How possible that some people still believe that human is evolved from monkey? This is a total humiliation to God's creation.

Scientists can discover new findings about every cell, or animal or produced great studies or journal about human body. Some even started to clon animals or human through a cell.

But one thing for sure, they could not invent nor create life. Because, only God can give a breath to every single human being.

Genesis 2:7 ~ Then the Lord God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man's nostrils, and the man become a living person.

Finally... My 1st Project Is Done

2009-05-19T22:12:00.007+08:00

Hi everybody, finally my 1st project is done.

This is a tissue box container.

Let me show you step by step how i design this cute tissue box container with clay.

1st, paint the whole box.

2nd, stick on colorful brick.

3rd, design the roof top.

Then add cute cartoon figure and lovely flowers.

Look, there are so many sweet morning glory flowers on the roof.

A pair of giraffe.

Isn't it cute?

A pair of lovely bears. The boy boy bear and girl girl bear.

The most difficult part in this project is making the eye lashes of the female giraffe and morning glory.

I had such a great satisfaction from doing this. And surely it will brings a smile on my face each time I look at my piece of work. ^^

My 1st Self-made Cartoon - Baby Monkey

2009-05-11T00:47:00.006+08:00

Ta-da~~!!

Cute or not?
This is my 1st selft-made cartoon using clay.

Actually this is not my 1st project but is my 1st own idea art work without instructed by coach.

My 1st project which is still "on-going" has not completed yet. Will share it when it is done.

This is the actual idea of the baby monkey at first but feels like abit dull so .........

Isn't it better with a milk bottle and a blankey?

I will continue to polish my skill so that I can create more cute lil cartoon.

^^

Exhausted = Break through?

2009-05-06T00:02:00.004+08:00

I am exhasuted...
Because of what?
I can't really specify it.. perhaps just the combination of everything.
But to my horror, I also found I am lost.
I am just like sitting in the corner, sobbing, seeing my Father in Heaven from the other side, yet I don't want to walk up to Him to talk.
I don't feel like thinking, I don't feel like sleeping, I don't even feel like talking. I just want to be all alone hiding in my dark room, being BLANK.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will wake up again, just need some time...
need some strength..
need some spaces..
O'God.. Please give me some courage...
I will be fine.. I need a break through..

左右为难的选民

2009-04-06T23:09:00.002+08:00

明天就是武吉干當区的国席补选日。也就是我的选区。为了这场补选，很多政治人物都突然变得和蔼可亲，慷慨亲民。对我来说，却有种假惺惺的感觉。党员们，盲目的为这些候选人拉票，有的是为了自己的坚持，有的却是为了自己的利益。

本来，以为这次巫统派出一个地方代表，可能真的可以为当地居民，为民请命。应该会是不错的决定。比起从外地过来迎战的尼查，的确让本地人感觉多了一份亲切感。而且，尼查不尊重苏丹也确实很难让人站在他那一边。

但是，这几天在区内发生的拉票态度中，我开始觉得摇动了。巫统的支持者，竟然用金钱来买选民的票。一人一百零吉。原来，这一票，是那么便宜的。原来，这所谓的民主主义也不过如此。更难堪的是，还有人愿意付钱请吃，余兴节目就是请了一些性感女郎来载歌载舞。还说这是华人庆典的风俗。我觉得好可悲。华人的传统，竟然背上了一个“败坏风俗”的名义。身为华人，我们真应该检讨。

巫統婦女組主席拿督斯里莎麗扎呼吁女選民“婦女們不應放棄投票的權利，為了國家的安定和前途，及為了下一代著想，更應出來履行公民義務。” 我本人非常赞同，所以也特地请假回老家投选。但，当这群人在利用性感女郎，卖弄身体来取悦选民的同时，是否有考虑到妇女的尊严，是否有教养，是否有智慧？？或是为了讨好一部分的选民而必须赞同这种不雅的风俗。这是教育下一代的方式吗？

还说女性選票佔總選票超过50%，这些候选人和支持者是否应该学习尊重女性再来党领袖？莎麗扎身为婦女組主席，因该位女生平反！

選委會在武吉干當國會議席補選的花費高達70萬令吉！70萬令吉！！！请问霹雳州内，有多少平穷人家，每月收入只有700令吉。这70萬令吉只为了一场補選，值得吗？？我是纳税人，選委會在如此挥霍人民的金钱时，有否得到我们的同意？？这是我们的血汗钱！！！！

明天，应该选哪一方呢？老实说，我也迷糊了。。唯有祷告，求告上帝启示。因为，我相信上帝在工作。昨天，今天，明天上帝都在掌权~！

Dinner at TBowl ~ 马桶主题餐厅

2009-04-05T23:06:00.006+08:00

之前看见这间餐厅，但那时候店已经打烊了。看了看门外挂着的菜单与价格，感觉还蛮不错，就很向往去试一试。
今天，终于有机会了。去之前，蛮期待的。。
这间马桶主题餐厅 - TBowl 位于Queen's Bay Mall, Bayan Lepas Penang 的顶楼。就在GSC戏院附近。

店里的装饰都是用大大小小的马桶，浴缸，花洒和大型洗手盆来设计。

五颜六色的马桶就成了客户的椅子。。感觉蛮新奇，但马桶椅子并不是很稳固。。摇来摇去的。

其实，还有更多可爱有趣的装饰，但不好意思到处乱拍。。

这道是银套小拳头 ( RM 7.50 )，味道咸咸的又带有belacan的香味。。

大碗饭 - 鸡扒饭 ( RM 10.90 ) 。适合食量大的一族。鸡扒上的甜酱蛮好吃的。

这就是我点的主菜 - 招牌马桶鸡肉锔饭 ( RM13.90 ) 。上面铺了蛮多的芝士。浓厚的芝士实在太诱人了。

东炎拉面 - RM11.90。够酸！料多！值得一试。可惜我有胃病，不然，很想点一碗来放纵一下。

饮料方面呢，我们尝试了绿茶 - RM 2.00, 蓝色的是Blue Curacao Mocktail ( RM 5.50 ) 还有蜜瓜西米露 - RM 4.90。

让我觉得不忿的是，餐单里的照片，呈现的蜜瓜西米露明明是用可爱小浴缸盛着的。

端上来的。。却只是用普通玻璃碗。服务员却无法给于合理的解释。有点欺骗消费者的感觉。要扣分！！！

大致上，食物的味道还不错。就给个70分吧！

Alice's Birthday Celebration at Little Cottage

2009-04-04T12:07:00.008+08:00

It was 2nd of April, not the exact day of Alice birthday. Yet the birthday girl is so thoughtful to treat us a meal earlier to avoid the our busy schedule on the actula day 19th April.
The guests of honour included me, Lau, Hooi Gaik, Nazri, Jeffrey and of course, Alice's sweetheart.

We had our lunch at Little Cottage, a cozy place with comfortable environment.

Here is our birthday girl, busying taking photo with her birthday cake - Opera Cake.

All of us are quite satisfied with the quality of the food.
It is consider tasty with a reasonable price of RM12.90, RM15.90 or RM19.90.

We started with a creamy mushroom room and bun. Then, the main course.

hmm... yummy yummy... I ordered the chef recommended Chicken Chop.

There are a few nice dishes on the set menu which really worth a try.

This is Black Pepper Chicken Chop.

Lamb Shoulder with black pepper sauce.

All time favourite "Fish n' Chips".

And... "Monte-Cristo" Chicken Chop.

Including in the set is this tiny cup of honeydew Jelly.

It was a joyful moment together. Thanks again to Alice for inviting us.

Happy Birthday Alice.

~ Let's Go to Chulia Street ~

2009-03-21T00:54:00.005+08:00

This time, I'm going to introduce some nice food from Chulia Street.
Most of the time, this place is crowded with people and quite a number of stalls are available.
You can find food such as fried koay teow, Lo Bak, koay teow soup, wantan mee, desserts etc etc there.

But today I will only recommend 2 kinds of food which I think is good there.

The 1st one will be the Fried Koay Teow.
It is very simple dish with prawn, taugeh & egg yet it smells really good.

This is wantan mee soup. The soup is quite tasty yet not too salty.

My favourite is still the dry wan tan mee. I like the chewy texture of the noodle and of cos, the fried wantan. ^^

All of this might be just a very common food, but sometime the satisfaction after eating such simple yet appetizing food is inexplicable.

吃“乐乐”去吧~！

2009-03-19T09:38:00.004+08:00

嗨，今天要给大家介绍的是，我从小到现在都非常喜欢吃的食物“乐乐”或念成“Lok Lok”。
这一档是位于 Pulau Tikus 巴刹边的摊位。大多数串串都是 RM1.20（青色边的）。
不过还蛮划的，因为蛮大串。

Hi everybody, today I'm going to introduce a type of food which is my all time favourite - "Lok Lok". This stall is located near Pulau Tikus's market. Most of the sticks cost RM1.20 each (green edge stick). Still consider reasonable as the portion is big.

看，好壮观吧？
其实呢，“Lok Lok”并没有分煮得好不好吃。只有看材料是否新鲜，和酱料好不好味。
这档的材料种类还蛮多的。酱料也很好。
美中不足的是因为太夜了，海鲜类有点不新鲜了。
汤底也变得很混浊，老实说有点肮脏。（可能本人有点洁癖吧。。嘻嘻）

Look, isn't it delicious?
Actually, there is no specific criteria to decide whether this food is delicious or not. Yet, the important thing is make sure the food is fresh and the sauces are tasty.
This stall has a variety of choices, the sauces are delicious too.
However, as it was quite late when i was there, the seafood is not fresh anymore.
The soup also looks "polluted" after so many round of dipping.

有我喜爱的甜酱。。Satay酱也不错哦。。
My favourite sweet sauce.. Satay sauce is another good choice...

喜衣机嘉年华会

2009-03-14T22:44:00.012+08:00

PCC小撒主日学举办的“喜衣机嘉年华会”终于圆满结束了。
感谢主，我可以参与其中。。感受到主耶稣赐给的恩膏和力量，带领我们顺顺利利的完成任务。一切荣耀赞美都归于上帝。

An outreach programme by PCC mandarin zone Sunday school is finally ended perfectly. Thanks God that I'm blessed to take part in it. God's blessing and power is with us and brought us through smoothly. Of cos, all glories and praises belongs to Almighty God.

这么美好的回忆，当然要照相留念哦。。
Such a memorable moment, must take some photos oh...

这些都是在等待着被运去目的地的用品。。
These are items that ready to be sent to our destination.

忙里偷闲。。当然要摆一摆“箔斯” (poses)
No matter how busy, still must spare some times to take photo ma...

准备就绪。。要出发去Eastern Court了哦。。
Everything is ready. Here we go... Eastern Court, we are coming!!

这就是我站岗的位置。。
This is my station..

大家都在忙碌。。确保一切都作的最好。。
Everybody is grabbing each single minute to make sure everything is in line..

好可爱的伊甸园哦。。老师们太厉害了。。。
这一站是要让小孩们知道，上帝如何创造天地万物。。

Such a cute Eden Garden.. The teachers are fabolous..

In this station, kids were to told about how God created the earth and everything else.

这一站是讲关于耶稣指示彼得如何捕鱼的故事。。

还有“神奇大餐”一站关于5饼2 鱼的故事。“福音桥”则讲述耶稣的救恩。

和“游戏天堂”--让孩子们活动的环节。。（抱歉还没照片）

This station was telling story about how Jesus instructed Peter to catch fishes.

There are other stations with story on how Jesus feed the crowd with 5 breads and 2 fishes, the gospel bridge which illustrated salvation and game station. (sorry that lack of photos)

忙了一整天。。每个人都累坏了。。可是，心灵却是充实的。。
回到教会，并没下雨的天空竟然出现了两道彩虹。。一深一浅。。

再次提醒我们，上帝是信实的。。

他奇妙的作为是超乎万物的。。

After a busy day, everyone was exhausted but we experienced the fullness of God.

It was such an amazing moment as we saw 2 rainbows (one light and one darker) on the sky when we were back to church. Once again God remind us that He is a faithful God.

His wonderful creation is above all.

吃。。吃。。吃。。

2009-03-13T23:00:00.003+08:00

糟糕了。。。最近发现，才搬来槟岛两三个月，就增加了3-4公斤。
@@....
实在太恐怖了。。但是，不懂怎么，还是喜欢吃槟城小吃。
就算是简单的猪肠粉，五香肉，云吞面。。都特别有味道。。
让我来介绍我昨天的晚餐。位于一个称为“十二层”的地方。

这是“四果汤”也有人称之为leng chi kang

猪肠粉。。味道还不错。。但还不是最好吃的。。

合格的云吞面。。不过，改天再为大家介绍更棒的云吞面。。

欧欧的自传

2009-03-02T00:00:00.012+08:00

大家好，我是欧欧。我很可爱吧？很多人都这么说，但我还是比较喜欢你们说我有型。
Hi everybody, my name is "Ou Ou". I am cute, right? Alot people says so, but I will be more delighted to hear you say I am cool.

我是在2009年2月11日出世。好期待我的满月之喜哦。。

虽然现在只有20天大，但我可是很聪明的哦。。已经会很多东西了。。

I was born in 11 Feb 2009. Looking forward for my one month old. Even though I'm only 20 days old now, but I'm a bright one.

因为，我有一个很聪明的主人哦。。

看！我的主人是不是和我一样迷人呢？她可是我心目中的超级靓女哦。。她很疼我的。每晚都一定要我在身旁才睡得着。

That is because, I have a very intelligent owner. Look, isn't she as lovely as me? She is always the most beautiful lady in my heart oh. She loves me alot, and can't go to bed without me.

平时呢，我最喜欢和我的主人玩捉谜藏。

When we are free, we used to play hide and seek.

若我的主人出去公干呢，我唯有看连戏剧打发时间。

If my owner is outstation, then I will watch drama.

有时候呢，我也会偷偷用主人的MSN来online聊天。。

Sometime, I may secretly online using my owner's msn.

不然，就打电话给我的朋友联络感情。。
Or, I will chit chat with friends through phone.

但是，若是主人很久都不回家，我就会很想念她呢。。唯有望着窗口痴痴的等。
However, when she is away for long period, I tend to miss her so much. But the only thing I can do is look through the window and keep waiting.

有时候，我也会乘她睡着时，偷偷的去玩驾车游戏。。有一次，被发现了，主人很生气。因为，我还没到可以驾驶的年龄。
Once a while, when she is fast asleep, I will sneak out and play with her car. Once, I was caught, and she is so upset because I'm still too young to drive.

结果呢，我被罚不准玩电脑，也不许用电话。唉。。唯有睡大觉来消磨时间咯。。。
Because of that, I was not allow to play pc nor use phone as punishment. Sigh, then just enjoy my sleep lo....

没有人陪我下课？

2009-02-18T22:49:00.002+08:00

这个标题是从我侄女的部落格偷来的。。哈哈。。
因为，这让我想起了自己以前上学的回忆。

那。。有没有人陪我下课呢？
我还蛮幸运的。常常都有要好得朋友在身边陪伴。
小学时代。。对我来说，是有些遥远。。也没太多的印象。
中学时代。。的确，每天都有朋友陪伴。记得上中三开始，食堂都有一个非常奇怪的规则。
在休息节结束前5分钟，巡查员会敲铃。就是那种卖冰淇林阿伯敲的那一种。
结果呢，不论你正在做什么，都必须定格，停下来。。
有时，面包刚靠近嘴边，张着嘴，还没咬，就定格了。。
有时，刚要站起来，也在那半坐半站的姿势，定格了。。
若有东西刚从手中掉落。。那无法违反地心吸力的物体，发出响声时。。
全场的目光都会投向你。。。仿佛你犯了罪似的。。太有趣了。。

现在，工作了。。尤其作sales 的。。根本都不大有机会和一群同事吃午餐。。
渐渐习惯了独来独往的生活。。。

我是怎么了。。。。

2009-01-14T23:50:00.004+08:00

是我有问题吗？
从一开始，我就被这句“我有事情想和你谈”吓到了。
或许应该说，是恐惧感吧。
因为，大多数时候，接在这句话后头的内容，都是让我不知所措的。
所以，每次只要看到或听到“我有事情想和你谈”就有点慌张了。
有时候，并没什么的。可是还是会虚惊一场。

这句话，还要笼罩我多久？
或许，原来我并不是自己想象般的坚强。还是，你给的信心不够？

也可能是，我太小心翼翼。改不掉打破沙锅问到底的毛病。
凡事都要清清楚楚的。因为，我讨厌不确定。也不喜欢猜测。
那，让我没有踏实感。因为近来，真的很没踏实感。

不争气的，永远是我的泪水。

我是怎么了。。。。

2008-12-17T19:44:00.003+08:00

1.Each blogger must post this rules

2. Each blogger starts with ten random facts/habits about themselves

3. Blogger who are tagged need to write ten things about their own blog and post these rules .You need to choose ten people to get tagged and list their names .

4. Don`t forget to leave them comment telling them they've been tagged and to read your blog .

Err.. seems like I'm getting outdated. Don't even realised that I'd been tagged and what tagging is all about. And this was long ago but I only realise now.

Ten Random Facts/Habits About Me

1. I can't live without God. He is my everything. Well, this is not about holiness but is a fact to me.

2. I love milo and milkshake. Why I love milo? because I don't like neither coffee, tea nor oats drinks. Why I love milkshake? I also don't know why, I just keep thinking of it day and night.

3. I cry easily. Sometime not because I'm sad but because I'm touched.

4. I always make ppl =.=". Perhaps I tell too much cold jokes. Not everyone can understand my joke or my thinking. In order to cover up themselves that they actually don't understand me, they will just stand there and sweating all over.

5. I like to bite. But I dont simply bite anything. I only bite human who has soft and chewy flesh. So if I bite you, is your pleasure which shows that you have good skin complexion.

6. I online almost everyday except when I don't have pc around me, or there is no internet connection.

7. I love to look at the mirror every morning when I wake up. It is such a great thing to see a beautiful girl from the mirror's reflection which will brighten up my day.

8. I record my expanses everyday. Money is not everything. But many people says "money=evil". So I must manage my money well so that they will not go out and hurt people. If you think you have too much "evil" with you and don't know how to control them. Don't worry, just leave them with me. I will help you to train them.

9. My actual age is 21 even though most people says I look like 18. Wuahaha...

10. I like to roll around. On bed of course.

过大礼。。

2008-12-05T23:13:00.006+08:00

别误会，这不是关于我的结婚过大礼，而是我家三姐的。
这篇文章其实早在两个星期前就该写，但忙得差点给忘了。
大姐，二姐结婚时，我还很小，什么也不懂，也没什么印象了。
妈妈说，在以前的时候，当父母看见礼饼送到时，就会哭了，
因为礼饼一收，女儿就非嫁不可了。。
可是依我家的情况看来，好像并没有人哭哦。。反而是兴高采烈的，热闹极了。
难道，大家都想把三姐赶快嫁出去？哈哈。。开玩笑的啦。。我可是伤心极了。。
（因为，过年过节，少了一个帮手，我可要累坏了）

这就是我未来三姐夫送来的嫁女饼。是不是很可爱呢？味道也很好噢。。。

看，新娘子是不是很漂亮？发型设计--〉我，化装师--〉二姐

Due to the request from my beloved cousin sis, so I'll try my best to translate this post into english directly. Will try to make it as accurate as I can.. but I am not a good translator oh.

Please don't mis-understand. This is about my 3rd sis's pre-marriage sending gift ceremony, not mine (so called "go dai lai" in cantonese). I should have write this post 2 weeks ago, but delayed due to busy schedule.

When my eldest and 2nd sisters got married, I was too young to understand the ceremony. SO, can't really recall anything special.

Mum told me, in the ancient time, parents will sure cry once they receive gifts from groom's side. Because, this ceremony symbolizes that the daughter is really going to get marry already.
But, from the scenery I observed in my family, nobody crying. In fact, everyone was so happy and excited. Perhaps everybody want 3rd sis to get marry as soon as possible? haha... just kidding.

Actually I am very sad oh.. (because this means that less 1 ppl to help to do housework during festival.. I will be exhausted oh)

Hope, Faith & Love

2008-11-25T01:31:00.002+08:00

God could not put Hope in your heart unless you first put your trust in Him and believe He will make your path straight.

God could not put Faith in your heart unless you first surrender everything to Him and stand firm no matter in what circumstances

God could not put Faith in your heart unless you first accept Jesus as your savior, that He first loves us and died for us.

God don’t just put hope, faith and love in you, but He gives you the chance to exercise these. It is through the experiences that you will receive these.

Crossroad

2008-10-18T08:06:00.005+08:00

I had been working very hard this year. By the blessing from God, I'm doing well; instead boss also praising "well done". Therefore I always thought I'm very secure in my current job, happily freely enjoying myself in my comfort zone.

Yet, life is always unpredictable. Now I have to change company. Not because I resign, not because I'm fired but because of company new system. I was miserable, confused, troubled, uncertain and keep asking myself, "why why why? Am I not good enough?" I'm trapped at the crossroad.

Boss persuades me to stay but relocate me to KL. That is not the life I want, I will not enjoy myself staying there. If I do, I'd be in KL long long ago. Therefore I have no choice but to accept the new job in our distributor company which will secure me to be based in Northern Region.

I was so down and started to drown in my own sorrow again. I cried to God asking Him why this happening to me. Though the new job role seems interesting, I am just not ready for a change at this moment. I'm worry will I be good in the new company? Will the boss and colleagues treat me well?

Then suddenly God speaks to me. “Have I not looking after you all the time? Have I not bless you always in your previous job and current job? Wherever you go, I'm with you. Everyone is favor in you because you are my favored child. Just go ahead and you’ll see this time, and again my blessing still with you.”

Then I realized, I need to move in order for God to work on me. He has the best thing in store for me but if I don’t move forward according to His plan, I can’t reach the spot where the blessing is awaiting.

Hydrangea Needs Pesticide

2008-10-10T17:52:00.002+08:00

My Gardener is busy because Hydrangea is sick. The evil one sent in a lot of bugs and worms trying to attack this tiny plant. These bugs have been hiding inside Hydrangea for very very long period I guess. But this time, Gardener wants to cast out every single little bugs.

It's a tough process as these are stubborn bugs. They hooked on the leaf, the flowers, the stems, the roots; basically is everywhere.

Gardener sprinkle strong pesticide and some powerful remedy. I am sure Hydrangea will get well soon as she has the most powerful and wonderful gardener. Fear not Hydrangea, as Gardener is watching over you. Be strong and full of courageous and victory is near.

Psalm 23:4 - Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

I am well

2008-10-07T00:52:00.002+08:00

I used to write alot.. but wondering why recently seems like couldn't write much.

Because of my sudden "blog post disappear" many friends sent their regard.

Just to share that Ariel is still well. ^^ Just recently too tight up with alot of things.

I will be back soon.

小白和小黄

2008-09-05T22:26:00.014+08:00

小白和小黄来自不同的地方...第一次见面，彼此都看不顺眼...

小白and小黄came from different places...They did not have favor in each other at all when they first met....

但，命运把他们凑在一起....

But, fate brings them together...

小黄送了一束可爱的爱情樱桃给小白，来见证他们的爱情.

小黄bought a bouquet of love cherries for 小白, as a rememberance of their love..

小白非常感动。每天都细心的呵护着这些樱桃们。。

小白was very touched.. She took very good care of them everyday...

因为，它们代表着小黄和小白的爱情

Because these cherries represented their love for each other..

但是，有一天，这束樱桃突然不见了。。

One day, the cherries disappear suddenly without a sign..

小白伤心极了。。终日悠悠寡欢

小白was so sad... and depressed...

为了小白，小黄决定带着小白，一同去寻找爱情樱桃..

小黄decided to search for it together with 小白..

他们走遍千山万水。。甚至去询问那个“无所不知，无所不闻”的龙猫先生..

They went around the world.... They even consulted the very wise man - Mr 龙猫 who knows everything...

还是没有答案.

Yet, they couldn't find the answer.

失落的小白躁急得哭倒在小黄的怀里..

说：“怎么办，爱情樱桃不见了。。是不是代表我们的爱情也将结束呢？”

小白cried : " What shall we do, love cherries are gone, does it means our love will end too?"

小黄紧紧地拥着小白，深情的回答：

“小傻瓜，爱情樱桃只是一个象征，有或没有，

并不重要，也不会影响我们的爱。　

只要我们仰望上帝，他必祝福我们直到永远”

But 小黄 still hug 小白 firmly in his arms and assured her :

"my dear, love cherries is just a symbol, its' existance is not that important at all. It will not affects our love too. As long as we focus on God, He will surely bless us forever"

小白终于破涕为笑...因为她发现

原来她生命中最敬仰的上帝在她心里面

最深爱的小黄在她身边..

这就足够了...

Finally, 小白 smile, because she realized that the Almight God is in her heart, and her beloved 小黄 is by her side...

That has already worth everything...

My Shelter

2008-08-21T23:32:00.003+08:00

I complained, because she don't understand how sorrow it is.
I have to settle my emotion, go to work and smile at people.
While she can just spend whole day sitting at home, thinking how to accuse me back or drown in her own assumption.

I'm tired... totally exhausted. As if I'd just went through a battle 7 days 7 nights without rest.

But then I realised. How wrong I am. How foolish I am to think that way.

I am still the lucky girl. Even though I am sad, I still have Jesus in my heart. God is my great shelter and comforter.

But she has no one. She is helpless.

O Lord, forgive me for my negative assumption. I give thanks to You for loving me. And I pray that You will comfort her as well. Give her peace and joy. Open her spiritual eyes so that she will come to know that You're the Almighty God.

Amen!

Look Up & See Wide

2008-08-20T16:11:00.001+08:00

Matthew 6:22 – The eye is the lamp of the body; so if your eye is clear, your whole body will be full of light.

It is so important about having a positive vision. But I always failed to do so. I never confident enough to rise higher than the image I have of myself. I always prepare the negative side so that I will be ready to accept any disappointment. This is very bad actually. I will never accomplish things that I don’t first see myself accomplishing.

Many times, I get too focus on my problem and neglected the mission from God. I must conceive it on the inside through my eyes of faith before it will come to pass on the outside. I need to create a healthy look picture and get it rooted in my mind.

Don’t look to the back that pulls me down. Don’t look the left or right that distracted me. Don’t look inside that make me lost. But always look up and being delivered by Father from the above.

So, stop worrying, start expecting good things that God is going to put in your life.

In Him that I Find Peace

2008-08-19T21:56:00.003+08:00

It was an exhausted weekend. Not physically, but mentally.

I had a battle to fight, it was discouraging, hurting indeed.

I fell down, I weeped.

I felt defeated and sorrow.

But then, when I turn around, I see many angels beside me, comforting me, supporting me.

I looked up, and I see Him, my dearly heavenly Father.

What will I be if without Him?

I dare not imagine that and I don't have to.

Because, It's only in Him that I find peace. In Him alone.

Amen!

Exhausted Week..

2008-08-07T20:42:00.005+08:00

Within a week time... I'd been in 4 different places...

Last Wed in kl, Fri in kk, sabah, Mon back in kl, Wed in Ipoh, and now currently in Penang.

It might sounds interesting but the fact is.. it's really exhausted...

Sometime, when i wake up, i might need 10 seconds to figure out my own location..

haha...

but luckily, no matter where I go, where I wake up, I still realise God in with me in my heart.

^^

他就在我心里面

2008-08-06T13:56:00.001+08:00

因为出差，必须乘飞机到 KK 去。。

在１００００公尺的高空中，望向窗外的白云，感觉有点不踏实。。

常在想，飞在天上是否就比较靠近天国？

是否和阿爸天父更贴近了？思索了一会儿。。

发现。。。原来无论我去到哪儿。。

哪怕是最底的深渊，或是最遥远的外太空。。

上帝还是与我同在。。

因为，他就在我心里面。。

My Mid-Year Spiritual Appraisal

2008-07-22T20:22:00.003+08:00

It’s July. Usually at this time, most bosses will hold a mid year appraisal with their employee to review their performance. This is important so that the employee will know how far they have achieved and what else they can improve in order to meet their yearly goals.

Often, we set goals or objectives for our carrier and life. How about our spiritual growth? Have you done your mid year appraisal with God?
Or I should ask, had you ever set your spiritual goal for 2008 at the beginning of the year?

I’m glad I did. So now I’m going to come out with a summary of my appraisal with God.

1st Objectives
Learn to fast & pray

Review Comments
- Manage to be firm on my stand, fast and pray for things in life.
- Get rid of obsession on food.

2nd Objectives
More prayer & spend time with God

Review Comments
- Manage to spend quality time with God and communicate with Him in better way.
- Be discipline on setting my prayer time.

3rd Objectives
Pray for Healing - spirit, soul & body

- Get healed from my gastric problem during the fast and pray period.
- Healed from throat pain and strained ankle.

I’m pretty happy with what I’d achieved but I also know that there is always room for improvement. I should not be pleased by little achievement and let my spiritual life get stagnant after this. All these attainments should be the momentum to drive me for higher level growth.

I want to get closer to Him. I want to pray more. I want to be healed from all sickness. Above all, I’m sure God will lead me through, guide me along the way and waiting for me at the end of the path. By that time, I can be rejoiced and glorify His Mighty Name.

Superhero from God

2008-07-20T21:09:00.007+08:00

One of the famous superhero from fictional Marvel comics is X-Men (mutants). They are so special because they acquire supernatural power either from birth such as Cyclops, Storm or through incident such as Wolverine. In the stories, many ordinary humans harbor an intense fear of mutants just because they are different from normal human.

The group were formed by the benevolent Professor Charles Xavier, a wealthy mutant who founded an academy to train young mutants to protect themselves and the world from Magneto, the Brotherhood of Mutants and other mutant threats.

So what is this got to do with superhero from God?

It is natural that when somebody is different from the other, people tends to despise them. We shouldn’t blame the natural human nature. I myself am an ordinary girl who always acts naturally.

Don’t feel bad if you forgot to say a word of prayer before you eat. It is natural.
Don’t feel bad if you hate someone. It is natural.
Don’t feel bad if you didn’t read bible. It is natural.
Don’t feel bad if you’re playful. It is natural
Don’t feel bad if you tend to worry and being anxious. It is natural.
Don’t feel bad if you dare not talk about Jesus in front of your friends. It is natural.
All these are natural human being’s character. It’s normal that Christian behaves so.

But to be supernatural in God’s eyes is difficult. That needs a lot of effort and training. We might have the supernatural character hidden in us but we do not know how to release it. We need God’s guidance to teach and train us to unveil our supernatural character. These supernatural power is not that we can produce powerful "optic blasts" from his eyes like Cyclops or born with telepathic and telekinetic power like Jean Grey.

Let me tell you what supernatural Christian is and how to be a superhero in God's way.

If you can pray in every circumstance, it is supernatural.
If you can forgive someone for hurting you, it is supernatural.
If you can put aside your worry and submit to God, it is supernatural.
If you can read God’s words everyday, it is supernatural.
If you can pray more than play, it is supernatural.
If you can share about Christ with everyone, it is supernatural.

Of course, there are many more supernatural behaviors that I couldn’t list out.

But I believe that God put all these ability in us. It is our choice to make whether we allow Him to unleash our power or continue to be the “natural ordinary human” that accepted easily by most people.

But I wish that one day, when I’m ready; I can proudly walk out and say

“Hey there, watch out! I’m the Super-Heroine from God”

都是你

2008-07-10T22:10:00.007+08:00

曾经, 觉得光良的"都是你" 的歌词很有意思. 但不完全体会.

现在, 有点明白了..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
谁改变了我的世界
没有方向没有日夜
我看着天这一刻在想你
是否会对我一样思念

你曾说我们有一个梦
等到那天我们来实现
我望着天在心中默默念
下一秒你出现在眼前

想念的心装满的都是你
我的钢琴弹奏的都是你
我的日记写满的都是你的名
才发现又另一个黎明

这些都是爱的累积
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

但是, 这歌词前部分, 应该更改一下.. 不应该"没有方向没有日夜"的
应该是"有了方向,有了日夜"..有上帝的人怎会没方向呢?

当然, 想念的是谁呢? 哈哈...

shhh~~~!

秘密~!

还好。梦

2008-07-07T14:29:00.003+08:00

都是天气惹的祸，整夜翻来附去，根本没睡好。

天快亮时，终于入眠啦。。却发恶梦了。。

可能我在车上的时间太长了，恶梦也发生在车上的。。

在一个充满斜坡的停车场，一直往后退，仿佛毫无止境的。。

直到被抛出车外，还是一直往下跌。。

终于，爬上来了。。却变成在高速公路飞驰。。

天啊，我又不使车神，不用那么快吧，而且，煞车器失灵了。。

梦通常都不公平的，发美梦时，总是轻易醒过来。

发恶梦时，却怎样也无法醒来,只能拼命挣扎。。

就在要撞上高速公路中央的大树时（看，高速公路中央竟然有大树）

就在这时，我听见铃声响起，随手抓起手机

phew~~ 听见了一个熟悉的声音。。

梦，就被吵醒了. ermm..... 不对，应该说被救醒了。。

谢谢咯。。。

Trust God in Every Circumstance

2008-07-05T20:17:00.003+08:00

Proverbs 3:5-6 – Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your way acknowledge Him, and He will make your path straight.

Very often, we claim that “we trust God”. But when life is difficult, we start to blame God instead of seeking and trusting God. We always question, “Why God, why is it me?” or “God, please take my sorrow away”. Yet we had never questioned ourselves why Jesus die for my sin which do not belongs to Him?

How many times that when we are at the crossroad and doubt our way. We see the signboard given by God asking us to follow the path that He has chosen for us. To us, the path seems terrible. It is full with thorns, it is crooked. Then we stumble, we doubt, we question God, we even ask God to change the plan or we try to convince ourselves that maybe the signboard is mistaken.

Our sight is shallow. We could not see beyond God’s plan. Just like we couldn’t see that every ugly knots behind the cross-stitch is to ensure the threads are hold tight to portrait a pretty picture on the other side.

All we have to do at that point of confusion is “God will not give us a burden that we cannot bear”. So, when we are about to take a step into that “awful-looked” path, ask God for map as direction, wisdom as your sword, armor as your protection & angel as helper. Then by faith, we walk through strong and firm instead of asking for exception. If we can make it through, surely the reward at the end of the path is abundance.

Amen!

*p.s- An old post of mine in my friendster blog. As i read back, found it is still touched my heart and made me think for a while. So, just wish to share here.

忙碌好? 好忙碌?

2008-07-02T21:58:00.002+08:00

人，真奇怪。。忙碌时，总是埋怨。

但，现在。。我只想变得很忙碌。。

做什么都可以，只要没剥夺我和上帝相聚的时间。。

越忙越好。。最好是让我忙到累了，一倒下床就睡着。。

苦涩的汗水..

2008-07-02T21:20:00.002+08:00

汗水是咸的。。可你有尝过苦涩的汗水吗？

今天健身时，脸上的汗水特别多。我努力的用手擦拭，却还是流个不停。

才发现，我的眼睛也会流汗。。稀奇吧？

原来，苦涩的，是眼睛的汗水。。

Am I ok? "Doubting.."

2008-07-01T20:00:00.006+08:00

I thought I am fine.

I went to gym, wanted to put aside my struggle and get myself work out.

Yet, 3 people ask me the same question: "Ariel, are you ok?"

With a sweet smile on my face, I answered: " Yeah of cos... what makes you think I'm not ok?"

Same answer again " Because you looked troubled in mind, and pale."

Gosh, it that so obvious? Since when my smiling face replaced with a troubled look without my notice? I don't like this feeling.

I felt defeated. I don't want to be this way. This is not Ariel.

I was wondering, is it I am not good enough that God purposely send someone to judge and question about my faith? God, am I that bad? I knew I wasn't an obedient child all the time. But surely I love you, Lord. The feeling of being judged doesn't taste good.

So if you see me, please don't ask me : "How are you?" I will still politely tell you "I'm fine". But I don't wish to lie because I myself also not sure am I fine at this moment. If you are my best friends, a hug from you is much much appreciated. Or perhaps, a comfort pat on my shoulder will be very warm indeed.

Anyway, Ariel will be fine. I'll try my best to be the cheerful girl again. So do not worry about me. ^_^

When I am really ok, you will see me smiling, hopping around as usual and being naughty and fool on you again. It will be soon, don't worry.

July.. Time to Prune Hydrangea

2008-07-01T13:19:00.006+08:00

Pruning has to be done for the health of Hydrangea BEFORE August. Why August? This is because by that time, Hydrangea already produce flower buds on stems around August, September or October for the following year's blooms. If those stems are removed (pruned) in this period,the bloom buds will be removed, which will result in fewer blooms the coming year. Which means, June and July is the best time for pruning.

Note that pruning is not the same thing as removing the dead blooms. Pruning is somehow cut off the existing blooms which can be a painful experience. How would anyone wish to trim off the attractive blooms which is in blossom condition?

I myself reluctant to be pruned. I want to stay in this sweet condition. Looking at my own blossom blooms. Yet, I see my gardener (God) standing beside me. I guess He is heartache to cut down these beautiful blooms as well. But, He MUST do so. He has to trim off the old blooms so that the bloom buds that covered underneath will grow in coming year.

God took a big gardening scissors and cutting off my old blooms.

I was crying and begging :"Please Papa, please don't cut it off. It means alot to me. It gives me good memories. Why can't I keep these old blooms?"

He just kept quiet and continue with His work. After that, He standing there starring at me, He gasped. I guess my condition must be terrible. I sob, I turned away and refused to see Him. I felt shameful with my current ugly look especially when people walk passing me.

Slowly, He squated down, patting on my head and said:" My girl, my forever beautiful Hydrangea. Don't be sad. These blooms are pretty but not healthy anymore. I felt pain to cut it off too but I must do what is best for You. This is exactly the correct timing to prune. Then, I shall see your blossom blooms soon. If I don't do this now, you might end up having nothing in the coming year. Be patient, my girl."

I bursted into tears once again. Hugging my Heavenly Daddy even harder. I didn't say anything anymore, so is He. He hugged me tight. At that moment, I realised. I can be ugly Hydrangea, I can be living without any blooms. But surely I can't live without my great gardener, Heavenly Father, My Almight God.

My Healing Testimonial

2008-06-30T21:59:00.003+08:00

This is my testimonial on how God healed me from a cut in my throat. It was on Thursday night that I being cut by a sharp prawn’s tail in my inner throat. . I felt a sudden pain in my throat which is hardly to be described.

I struggled with the pain for more than 24 hours. I was frustrated and thinking perhaps this time, I really need to consult a doctor else I might get infection from the cut.

On Friday night, I couldn't stand the pain anymore. As I sat down and prayed, I ask God for healing. To be honest, I was praying in doubt. I was kinda persuading God to heal me as I laid hand on my neck and said, "ok Lord Jesus, could you please heal me? How about when I remove my hand from my neck and the pain suddenly gone? Let's count 1.. 2.. 3.. ok?"

So silently, I counted 1.. 2.. 3.. in my heart. Then follow by a longer silent. I took a try to swallow my saliva and... ouch....the pain is still there.

I was bit down and disappointed. I thought God always heal? Then how come the miracle didn’t happen? So I sat there quietly, trying to listen to God’s voice. I heard, patient, patient. Suddenly I realize that I shall not question God’s ability. He can always heal but in His timing, not mine. So once again, I surrender myself and apologize for my rudeness. I prayed that God will uphold me and heal me in the way He wants it to be. I prayed that He will restore me while sleep.

The next morning, I woke at 5:30am for my morning prayer. As I gave thanks to my heavenly Father for a new day, I suddenly realize the pain was gone. Not even I can feel a mild discomfort in my throat.

The pain in TOTALLY GONE !

My mind was a little bit blank at that moment as I had never ever experienced such a healing from God’s. I was astonished. I was overjoyed. The joy is indescribable.
Spectacular!
Some people might laugh at me right now as you might think this is such a small matter. To me, it is a miracle that proves God is real. We always thought that miracle means something great, huge and only happen during very serious or dangerous situation. This is a wrong concept. The miracle of God’s power is happening everyday, everywhere. It can be on you and me as long as we have faith in Him.

Sometime, the insignificant things happened around us may not seem great yet it is a plan from God. If we are more focus in Him and seeks Him always, we will realize that God is trying to brighten our days with all these tiny yet wonderful blessing. For sure, this glory belongs to Him alone.

My prayer of thanks:

Father in heaven, I am really thankful for such a great experience from you. As I walk on my journey, I see You there right beside me. You hold my hand and lead me all along the way. Sometime, it might be difficult for me to understand Your plan, then I slumber, I doubt and walk away from you. Yet, You never let me go. Thank you for your healing as this is a nutrient for my spiritual life to continue grows and blossom.
Amen.

Conversation Between My Internal Organs

2008-06-24T22:15:00.007+08:00

Did you ever hear your internal organs talking to each other? Well, if you don't, let’s listen to what I hear inside my body.

One day, after my 3 days fasting, while I was asleep, my internal organs started to argue.

Intestine: phew~~this few days i really has alot of free time, only need to digest some liquid. No solid food at all.

Liver: Yeah.. less toxic for me too.

Heart & Lungs: Argg.... this is unfair. How come we still have to work 24 hours non-stop? How come intestine can have a 3 easy going days?

Lungs: Can I request Ariel to stop breathing for 3 days so that I could take a long holiday as well?

Intestine: Hey, not just me. Stomach does less work too.

Stomach: Argg…who say I’m having easy time? In fact, I’m struggling. It was really a tough period for me as without food, the acidic gastric juice is hurting my inner stomach wall. I was working even harder to monitor the juice secretion.

Heart: That shows you don’t have self control. Perhaps I should take a holiday and stop beating for 3 days as well. If our master do not agree with this, then I want to resign!

Lungs: Yeah.. Resign.. Resign….

Suddenly, the Holy Spirit voiced out.

Holy Spirit: You all foolish organs. Shut up and repent. What do you think you are if without your master body. God created all of you to be part of this body and to serve your master. How dare you make such a foolish requirement? Now, I shall punish you for your imprudent act.

At this time, all the organs trembled in fear and start to beg for forgiveness.

Holy Spirit: Remember, I spare your life is because this body still needs your function as long as this body is on earth. One day, when Jesus is back, god will grant your master a whole new body and all of you are nothing at all. But if you are still not satisfy at this moment, the Almighty God can set you off anytime right now and restore this body with new organs. So you better work hard!

After that, everyone is in silent. My body suddenly felt exhausted and I was gasping for breathe. My heart was pounding incredibly fast.

Brain: Hey, what’s wrong?

Lungs: 1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2….I must work hard else I’ll be set off. So I must breathe harder to get more oxygen for gas transfer. 1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2……

Heart: Ya ya.. so am I. I must work harder. Pumping blood in my highest speed.

Brain: Oh no!! You are going to make this body collapse!.. HELP~~~!!!!!

*p.s: If you feel "sweating" to read this article. I understand. As I also feel "sweating" that how could I come out with such an article. hahaha... crazy liao....

大头的我..

2008-06-24T11:22:00.005+08:00

我的头很大。。很多人这么说，我也这么认为。。

大学４年，是我在电单车上飞驰最多的时期。朋友常常因为我穿不下他们带给我的头盔而笑得前俯后仰。

不然，就是喜欢捉弄我＂大头，大头，下雨不愁＂

当然，另一个原因是我很善忘。所以，又变成了人们口中的大头虾。有时在想，我的头那么大，是不是应该可以积存更多的记忆呢？那，为什么我却善忘？

唯一的解释是，这个记忆仓太大了，要找回一些纪录，并不容易。跑来跑去，是很累的，可怜我的脑细胞，要比别人发出更强烈的电波，才能到达我大脑面积宽阔的的每一个角落。

你也觉得它们很可怜，对不对？所以呢，如果我又忘记了一些事，请别怪我，而是要体谅我的脑细胞哦。。

虽然，妈妈常说，大头的人是很有福气的。可是我找偏任何书，并没有任何科学证明可以支持这个说法。

有时会想，上帝啊。。您是不是在创造我的时候，毫不吝啬的下手太重了，把我的头塞得太满了？

无论是什么原因，我还是很庆幸，还是要感谢上帝。因为，要找一个象我这样，头大得那么可爱又漂亮的，谈何容易。。。

（我可以看见你们正在点头）谢啦。。。哈哈

Coffee, Tea or God ? ?

2008-06-23T09:39:00.003+08:00

Coffee, a widely-consumed stimulant beverage that many people could not live without. I’d seen people who cannot start their day without coffee. They feel down, reckless until they finally take a sip of this strong aroma, powerful drink. For some people, the urge of drinking coffee is so strong that without coffee, they can’t concentrate or focus at all. Can I consider this as “addicted” to coffee?

Tea, that I meant here is not the beverage itself but is about the “Yum Cha” culture in Malaysia. “Yum Cha” means drinking tea or should be interpreted as drinking tea during supper time has become a trendy culture in the society. I still remember when I first stepped into University and telling my friends that I’d never “Yum Cha” during my high school period, they laughed at me. Soon, I’m some sort addicted to such a culture too. Try to make it every night without failed. Luckily, it did not last long.

I won’t describe any further about coffee or tea as they are not my main concern here. What I wish to say is about my God and Jesus Christ, above all the addiction stated above. Some people can spend hours to brew a cup of nice coffee yet no time to pray. Some people can steal a few hours every night to go “Yum Cha” yet no time to spend just 15 or 30 min to chat with God. Some people tells me that they love God, but when their obsession on coffee start to haunt them, all that is in their mind is “coffee~~ coffee~~I need coffee”.

Well, don’t get me wrong. I don’t mean that drinking coffee or go to “Yum Cha” is wrong. I just mean that sometime this habit may distract our focus on God if the habit has became much more important than seeking God. Coffee and tea here are just an example. The distraction could be in other form such as music, movie, drama, games, sports, clubbing etc. Of course we can enjoy all these as it is part of God’s creation too but with terms and conditions which is God First.

I wish one day, I could be addicted. I want to be “Jesus Addict”. Perhaps I’m already is as I know I could not live without Jesus. And I would wake up every morning yelling

“Jesus~~Jesus~~ I need Jesus”. It is He alone that can give me strength, courage and above all, Life.

He is my shelter, my shield, my portion, my deliverer, my strong tower, my very present help in time of need.

*p.s: Lastly, if you ask me coffee, tea or God ? No doubt, 101% answer is GOD.

Because I don’t drink coffee or tea as I only drink Milo. phew~~luckily.. :p

今天，差点失声了。。和侄女去唱k 。两个人，唱了两个半小时，我觉得很累，这小妞却还嚷着不够过瘾。真被她打败。

无论如何, 第一次在怡保唱 k，当然要拍照留念喔。

试了几次，我那可爱的侄女，应该是还沉醉在音乐中，眼睛总是睁不开。没办法咯。。

My Workplace

2008-06-21T22:07:00.000+08:00

Many people always concern about where am I working as my company does not have a branch office in Ipoh.

So now, let me show you my work station, where I spend most of my time except when I'm attending case or meeting surgeon.

Though it is not a perfect work place but I still appreciate it alot. And sometime I guess, I should be selected as best employee as I'm so hardworking until most of the time, I sleep beside my workplace (my bed is right opposite the table). Haha~~!

My pH Dropped, Due to Transplanting

2008-06-21T12:21:00.000+08:00

It was a bad weather, sometime raining heavily, sometime was too warm.
Perhaps during such a difficult time, it is really not suitable to transplant me - Hydrangea.
Last night, it rained heavily. I was swaying in the rain. Even though tonne of rain water flowing into me, I am still dehydrated.

God's heart must be pain to see me in such condition, but He insisted to transplant me. As He knew what is best for me. I need a new environment and a new pot. He dug me out from the old soggy soil. I am so stubborn sometime that I refused to be moved. I want to stay in my comfort area because I worry too much. What if the new pot not suitable for me? What if I cannot adapt to the new environment? What if when I being transplant, my pH dropped and I turned to blue.

When I insisted to stay on the ground, I became so strengthless. Then my tears keep flowing. Suddenly, I look up and I see God's face. He stand there silently under the rain. I see tears flowing down His cheeks too. He kept telling me it is all right when He started to dig up as much rootball as possible. It was a difficult task in such a weather. But He didn't gave up on me. Then I realized, it would be easier if I clinged on His hand to allow Him to carry me out from the soggy soil instead I slumber around and let Him to do all the rest.

When I was finally out from the old soil.. My pH dropped tremendously and I turned blue~~ ( refers to previous post to know why pH is important to Hydrangea). God held me tight in His arm and rush to the new pot and let me settle down. I waited silently. Then I was too tired and fell asleep but He remains there to comfort and heal me. He checking my pH from time to time to make sure when the sun rises again in the morning, I'll be in the pink of health.

Thanks God, I woke up fresh and shine today. I might not be in perfect pH of 6.2 yet but I can see He still stand beside me holding me. Using His huge body to cover me to avoid the strong sunlight then He says to me, "My dear, bare in mind that I will only give You the best, hold on and You will see the glory soon".

A Break Through In Life

2008-06-19T22:54:00.000+08:00

Hours ago, I'd been waiting, counting down the time to write this testimony. I just can't believe it that I really did it. Fasting for 3 days equivalent to 72 hours without solid food, but only plain water, 2 cups of milo, a cup of orange juice and a cup of soya bean each day. (I can hear some ppl saying I'm crazy now). Haha.

Well, what I want to emphasize here is not how wonderful that I made this. I'm not fasting for keeping fit nor for a proof that I got self control. But I fast for seeking God. I am very sure that I will not make this through if it is without God's protection, guidance and blessing.

As a girl who always suffer from gastric pain, I always convince myself (consciously or unconsciously) that I cannot fast. I don't have the faith at all. But this time, God really touched my heart in order to make this decision. Within this 3 days, I don't suffer from gastric pain, I still look energetic and fresh, I still work as usual, I still go to gym and work out for 1.5 hours.

Perhaps I still haven't got the answer that I'm looking for during this fast and pray period. But I know this is a break through for me as I'd come closer and closer to my Abba Father. And through Him alone that this can be done. Thank you my Lord for this blessing. All this glory belongs to You and You alone.

Hallelujah!

Lord I offer You my life

2008-06-18T16:22:00.000+08:00

Things in the past Things yet unseen
Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true
All of my hopes All of my plans
My heart and my hands are lifted to You

Lord I offer my life to You
Everything I've been through
Use it for Your glory
Lord I offer my days to You
Lifting my praise to You
As a pleasing sacrify

Lord I offer You my life

A Mate from God

2008-06-17T07:10:00.000+08:00

We know that it is the Lord's will for people to have mate if they desire one. In the beginning when God created Adam, God Himself made this statement.

Genesis 2:18 – It is not good for man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.

The Lord wants to bring a mate to those who will ask Him and have the patience to wait for His choice. There are some single people who are constantly looking for a mate and they are miserable because God has not sent them one yet. They have prayed and prayed yet they still have no mate.

Some start pondering and settle for Satan’s provision instead of asking God for the patience to wait for the one whom He would send. If they would look to Jesus & seek to please him, rather than being concerned about a mate, soon they will find the right one crossing their path.

Looking for a man or woman to just keep them from being lonely or just to fill their needs should not be the only reason for desiring a mate. It is important to be concerned about what kind of husband/wife they would be for a mate even before the relationship starts. They should ask Lord to fill them with His Love and Peace.

It might take some time before we really meet the correct mate as God may use our “singleness” to mold us into a better person before directing us to our other half. First the Lord would begin to use us to bless others; then we will find we are content in Him. Eventually, in God’s plan and timing, He will bless us with a wonderful mate so that both lives can be a witness for him. We should never enter into marriage or perhaps I should say enter into a relationship without much prayer.

If we allow the emotional & soulish realm to dominate our lives we become more susceptible to the enemy leading us astray through someone. So many have failed the Lord because they choose a man/woman over the Lord.
1. Solomon’s heathen wife led him into idolatry.
2. Samson lost his eyes because of a woman.
3. David committed murder and adultery because of passion for Bathsheba.

The true definition of love is “God is Love”. If God is not in a relationship, it is not true love. What the world calls love is really lust since it is built on what the other person does for me instead of what I can do for him/her. If the other person fails to keep up his end of the bargain, a divorce occurs because the offended mate is no longer pleased. This is the attitude of the world’s love.

God’s love is loves without receiving back (though this seems difficult to understand; in fact it is tough as we are just human)
God’s love if forgiving and patient.
God’s love is gentle and kind.
God’s love waits.
God’s love sacrifices.

Man’s emotions are not a reliable gauge upon which to establish a relationship. It is important to seek for character than emotion. Emotion fluctuate; character doesn’t. Emotion are in the soulish realm and unless the carnal mind has been renew, Satan can give us emotions or feeling of loves for someone of his choosing. “Falling” in love is Satan’s way. A Christian should not blindly “fall” into a trap. Love is bigger than simply falling for someone.

Certainly God gives us a wonderful emotional feeling for the one we are to marry. However, this “feeling” without God’s direction can be disastrous as Satan can tamper with our emotions and feelings too. Therefore, relationship or marriage should be based on a decision directed by the Holy Spirit.

Above all, thank God and seek God.

My 1st Instrument Wrapping

2008-06-16T22:29:00.000+08:00

I always feel the CSSD staff in the operation theatre does incredible job. They need to manage alot of instrument, from washing, drying, cleaning to wrapping with correct way, arranging different set of instrument for different type of surgery.

Finally, they give me a chance to learn from them on how to wrap the instrument set. So excited to share it out. Here it is, the very 1st instrument set that i wrapped by myself. It is 2 layer. Now, it is ready to push into autoclave machine to sterile it.

Thank God, I'm in pH 6.2

2008-06-04T19:49:00.000+08:00

Some people might be wondering, what does Ariel means by "I'm in pH 6.2" ? does she turned acidic?

Now, let me tell you the fascinating facts about Me as Hydrangea.
Hydrangeas are fascinating in that, unlike most other plants, the color of Hydrangea can change dramatically. The color can be changed by controlling the pH of the soil. Hydrangea can appear to be blue to pink or even purple.

It is much easier to change a hydrangea from pink to blue than it is from blue to pink. Changing a hydrangea from pink to blue entails adding aluminum to the soil. Changing from blue to pink means subtracting aluminum from the soil or taking it out of reach of the hydrangea. pH 6.2 is perfect for Hydrangea to keep it pinkish color. If the pH drop until 5.2-5.5, it will become blue in color.

Therefore, when I say I'm in pH 6.2 means I'm in the pink of health, not in "blue~~" mood. Good thing right? haha...

Well, wondering am I confusing anybody? What is hydrangea to do with me? Actually, Hydrangea is the nick of mine which i use since the very first day learn to online. So Hydrangea means me. I choose this nick is because I'm amazed with hydrangea's wonderful nature and character.

Conclusion, I am in pH 6.2 and I'm sure God will be my perfect gardener who will always maintain my pH so that I'll be happy and healthy and pinky always.

Thanks my heavenly Papa, muacks!

心，是一个容器，不停的累积，所有的点滴。。

但，如果有一天，当思念满溢，沾透天与地。。

我，还是否依然，耐心等待着，顺服的聆听。。

风，为我吹起了，满地的落叶，也编编起舞。。

雨，悄悄的落了，载我的祝福，撒在你身边。。

天，渐渐的黑了，我闭上双眼，在内心摸索。。

主，我听见你了，不需要言语，只需坚信着。。

你身上专属的陌生味道是我确认你存在的目标
不用来回张望了直到今世我们相隔在一个街角
这么久了，还是可以看到感觉得到你对我的重要
不会被天黑天亮打扰你每一次的温柔我都想炫耀

我们绕了这么一圈才遇到，我比谁都更明白你的重要
这么久了我就决定了，决定了你的手我握了不会放掉
我们绕了这么一圈才遇到，我答应自己不再庸人自扰
因为我要的我自己知道，只要你的肩膀依然让我靠

好累哦~~

Have you ever feel the anointing from God? Have you ever felt the presence of God so strongly that your heart was so touched until your tears keep rolling nonstop and uncontrollable?

This is not the 1st time I feel this, but it is always a wonderful moment every time I experience this.

Just attended a healing session organized by “The Fountain of Joy”. Indeed, a wonderful night. A night where I see the almight work of God. 1st time in my life, I see gold dust appear on my hand. Even though I’d been hearing about the anointing of God by gold dust blessing, in fact, I saw it before on other brother’s and sister’s hands, I had never see it on my own hand before. Though this time, it is not much. It is still a wonderful moment to me.

When pastor made the altar call, I was so willingly to walk to the front, eagerly waiting for the prayer. Yet, deep in my heart, I had fear. This is not right, because in God there is no fear. Then why did this feeling was so strong in me? I start to doubt whether I should be prayed for?

I kept stepped back when I saw rolls of bro n sis fell in front of me due to the great power anointed by God. But at last, I still made up my mind to come to God.

Then, I fell. Feeling weird as I thought I fell was because being dragged down by the people beside me. So I talked to God in my heart “Lord, I am still conscious, perhaps just a mistake so I wanna get up.”

So I tried to get up. To my surprised, I was strengthless. There was no way I can wake up. My shoulder, my chest and my hands kept trembling. Great tremble indeed. Then I came to realization, God was healing me. Holy Spirit was trying to cast out the evil spirit that was not supposed to be inside me. It was this evil spirit that gave me the feeling of fear so that I would not go to God.

I had a great sleep yesterday night. In fact, I smile to my sleep. The feeling is wonderful or I should say no word can describe it.

All I can say is, my God is Almight.
