Love Others

Date: Saturday, January 17, 2009
Time: 10:34 PM

I realized today that God is amazing .

He loves every single human being in this world . Unconditioned . Not selective .
No , he ain't picky .

His love for all of us is deep and sincere .
He doesn't cheat you into giving Him your lollipop by complimenting you from hair tip to toe nails .

He loves all and doesn't abandon any single one of us.
So , if you feel that your mama , papa , sister , brother , ah ma , ah gong and your pet dog named Fatfat are in love with Lee hom and that no one loves u , fear not , He still loves you .

He was willing to sacrifice . He could have sacrificed His Ipod , His Porche , His unlimited supply of Baskin Robin . Or even us ... But , nope !
Of all things , He sacrificed His Son to be crucified . To save us .
Sacrificial love .

And so , we should learn to love like God . Love others sincerely . Till they come to you , because they know you really care for them .

the not so malaysia part of Melaka

Date: Thursday, January 15, 2009
Time: 10:16 AM

Just came back from Melaka yesterday .

Due to the lack of internet , transport and Astro at my Grandpapa's house , I had to find other sources of entertainment so that my 5 days there weren't meaningless .

Like i said , no transport , the only means of transport were my capable pair of legs . So , they brought me everywhere from my grandpa's house to Mahkota Parade , Dataran Pahlawan , Stadhuys , along Sungai Melaka , A 'Famosa and Dataran Sungai Melaka .



Some really nice buildings along Sungai Melaka


It used to smell and had dead fish floating ... not anymore


Kincir Air Kesultanan Melaka




This place resembles a place in South Africa ... can't remember the name




See.. such a nice and modern-looking bus stop .

Malaysia's not so Malaysia these days .

Just a thought that came up

About boy-girl relationships

Why do people get into relationships ? A very wise teacher of my had once said that people get into relationships because they want to get married .

To get married is to stay together forever . Going through pain and sufferings together . To take care of your spouse when they are sick or even till they are terminally ill or bedridden .

I'm no veteran in relationships . I'm no love guru . But , yeah , i've been in relationships . OK . Just 2 .

But , 2 very different ones . Both weren't " love at first sight " relationships .

The 1st was an on-and-off relationship with a guy i would refer to as 'X' . X and i studied in the same class , went to the same tuitions , and stayed in the same town . It was a short-distance relationship where i would be able to meet him whenever i want to . Because everywhere in Tampin is just 5 minutes away from home .

And the 2nd relationship is with a guy i would refer as "Z" . Z stays in Melaka while I stay in Tampin . And now , we study at different universities in Kuala Lumpur . We don't meet up each day . Because if compared , Tampin would be a 5 cent coin and KL would be a round man-hole cover . Getting to places in KL in just 5 minutes would be ... hallelujah , praise the Lord .

X is a simple guy who has no particular interest in seeking a glamorous life and aims instead for satisfaction . The kind of guy who is a joker but keeps himself humble and low-profiled . X is fun but not as fun to be with as Z . X is more of a listener than a talker . X is loyal and his efforts show clearly that he wants the relationship to last and maintained . Good-hearted , caring and showers me with the attention i need from him . He would always be there for me automatically . But , X is sometimes oversensitive and transforms into the green-eyed monster easily . Thus, this makes him a little bit obsessive sometimes and making me feel that i am under his control . When it comes to having fights and if he was in the wrong, he would appologize , knowing what the problem was and we would reconcile .

Z , on the other hand , is no simple guy seeking for mere satisfaction . Z is a dreamer who seeks a glamorous life . He is a joker and indulges in attention from the crowd . To say that he is low-profiled , that would be SO wrong . Z is fun , unpredictable and interesting to be with and to talk to . He doesn't get jealous easily . And i would have more freedom and need not worry that my actions would be a problem to him . He would be there for me , though , on my call . But , Z doesn't give me the attention that i need . Contrary to X , he is overinsensitive . Z is never the one to start a fight . Well , we had never really did fight before . When a problem arises , most of the time , Z would simply put the fault on me for thinking too much and treat the matter with disregard . Though , we still reconcile without alleviating the problem . Hence , problems accumulate and are left unsolved and refreshed when another problem arises .

Based on appearance , both have their strong points and weak points . But both , considerably , boleh tahan and boleh tengok and tengok lebih lama sikit pun tak bosan .

Z has what X lacks . And X has what Z lacks .

These are the 2 guys that i've let into my life .

I'm wondering if there's a guy who is a combination of both X and Z's strong points .

X + Z ---> Y

Let's refer to him as Y then .

Y would be fun , interesting , unpredictable , aims for a glamorous life , would be there for me automatically , caring , gives me the attention i need , medium-profilled , solves problems and appologizes when he is wrong instead of putting the fault on my overimaginative brain .

But , then again , usually ( i'm hoping that i'm wrong ) , guys like Y would lack something else that's very important .

Y would either come in the form of Shrek or Donkey . Or come in the form of a man with a head of white hair with saggy muscles and wrinkled skin . Or a guy who calculates 1 + 1 and gets 1 for an answer .

No perfect guy in this world i guess .

But , if you were in my Vincci shoes , who would you pick ? X or Z ?

Who would be the better man ( or lady ) for you ?



PS :
If you know who X and Z is , shhhhh ... =)
But still tell me what you think .

2009 Resolutions

Date: Thursday, January 8, 2009
Time: 9:46 AM

Happy New Year !!! I'm 8 days late ...

Its been quite some time since i blogged . For the pass one month , i had to prepare for my examination . The first exam of the semester and also the last exam of the semester . It was just a One Best Answer test of 50 questions which included our 14 weeks of lecture .

The good thing about IMU 's self-learning system is that it really gives you all the free time you need to self-learn and self-study . Somehow , lectures aren't that important , it just serves as a guide . With only 2 hour lectures per day , once a week PBLs and MMS , we practically have a lot of free time on our hands . You can do anything you want to do . Be it study or sing K with friends or sleep the whole day .

The bad thing is that they have so few test and exams . ( maybe that's a good thing also ) No test is equivalent to having no idea how the major exams would turn out . And that leads knowing nuts about techniques to answer questions and what to focus on when studying for exams.

Enough of that , I'm happy in IMU anyway . Though , it is less fun than form 6 life .

I miss those days in form 6 . The teachers were great , the friends were awesome . We were like one big family . All willing to share . All willing to go through hardship together . Teachers were dedicated like hell . Missing their lessons made you guilty . Uni-life . * Sob * . Totally different .

New year resolutions this year
  1. Cut down on sugary food . ( We don't need that much sugar in our bodies anyway )
  2. Stop squeezing pimples . ( Have blemishes all over my face * sigh * )
  3. Learn some make-up skills . ( Especially how to apply foundation to cover up those blemishes )
  4. Chew on Japanese Soybean in stressful situations ( instead of biscuits )
  5. Study less . ( My bro says i am studying too much . I think its true . Need to just aim for pass next time )
  6. Learn to use dad's big chunky 10 megapixel camera .
  7. Improve photographing skills . ( I should take lessons from my cousin , Jason . )
  8. Make more friends at IMU ( instead of hanging out with the same friends all day )
  9. Go back to Melaka to spend time with grandpa at least once a month .
  10. Think before i talk .
  11. Dress more feminine . ( Alex said i dress like a guy . Hate to say this . I think he's right . )
  12. Come home to tampin at least twice a month .
  13. Follow the one year bible reading plan .
  14. Participate in Infinity Milers activities . ( Infinity Milers is a very active/fun running and mountain climbing club in IMU )
  15. Take part in at least 5 marathons this year . ( Trying to make a collection of marathon certificates and medals )
  16. Get a Facebook account . ( I'm outdated , i know )
  17. Catch up with Tampin and Melaka friends .
  18. Reply forward messages
  19. Focus on myself more and Stop being obsessed over TWS . ( My mum said i'm " tepuk-ing sebelah tangan " . )
  20. Get a big poster of Lee Hom . ( omgwthbbq , so handsome . *drool* )
  21. Go back to Rumah Hope to spend time with the kids there .
  22. Improve new-year-resolution actualizing skills . Accomplish at least 50 % of it .
