Back to the Lord

I have been away from the Lord for some time, away from the church life, away from the members of Christ. I really felt that my life is in vanity...

Now back to KB, back to the local church life, back to the word of God, I'm captured by the Lord again.

I attended the video training these two days, entered into the message on "Crystallization Study of the Gospel of God in Romans".

In the first message, i enjoyed the opening words.

"If we all would give Him our openness and our obedience, surely the Lord will by His grace have a free way within us to move, advance, gain around, bless and spread."

"God's will is the source of everything."
"Nothing is more formidable than a resolution made by God in a council of the Godhead according to His purpose, His heart's desire, and His will."

The high peal of the divine revelation - that in Christ God became man in order that in Christ man might become God in life, in nature, in constitution, in appearance, and in expression but not in the Godhead nor as an object of worship.

"God being a God of purpose, having a will of His own pleasure; His creating all things for His will so that He might fulfill His purpose."

I'm reminded that I'm not a product of random, aimless, biochemical interactions. I'm a vessel chosen and foreknown by God in eternity past and created in time that my life on earth can contribute to the fulfillment of God's will and purpose.

"We were living a life without meaning, and we had no goal and no purpose, but now we have been redeemed by the precious blood of Christ. We no longer have a vain manner of life. We have goal to our life, which is to live a holy life for the church life. Our goal is to live a life separated unto God and saturated with God so that we can be built up with God to be the Body of Christ expressed as the local churches."

Time is a bridge; time is for the process, but all of us are eternal beings because we have been born of God and possess the eternal, indestructible life of God. We will live eternally in the consummation and fulfillment of God's good pleasure. This eternal plan was made in Christ, with Christ, through Christ and for Christ according to God's desire and pleasure, because God's desire and pleasure are in His Son.

Prayer:
"Lord Jesus, i cannot live without You.
I need You, Lord. I am forever dependent upon You."

快乐时光

这短暂的假期快要结束了。

我仍旧在赶assignment, 虽然很不甘愿，但仍然要做。

真的好希望能好好地享受假期，但。。。 不能了。

夜深人静的夜里，我失眠了。

听着抒情的音乐，抒发心中的感情。

昨天开心地与若怀吃午餐，虽然只是普通的一餐板面，但我们都吃得津津有味。
她一上车我们就说个不停。
既然午餐后还有时间，我们就分秒必争，去old town 喝茶。

my hazelnut white coffee


huai's old town white coffee

在大热天的下午，躲在冷气中喝茶真是人生一大享乐。嘻嘻。

虽然只有我们俩，但我们可不寂寞哦！

短短的2-3小时，但我已觉得很开心了。

今天做乖乖女在家煮饭给父母吃。

这周回来已下厨几次了， 厨艺怎么也进步了些。嘻嘻。

难得大家抽出空闲时间， 我，迪咏和优坚出来喝茶。

反正大家都住很靠近，出来也很方便，况且优坚就住在我家后面，走几步路就到了。

爸看见我和别的男生出街还很开心呢！

过后他们也跑回来我家坐坐。

大家都直接进去冷气房里看电视，东西南北地聊个痛快。

直到快12am, 灰王子是时候回家了。

他们才慢慢地离开那间房，进去我刚装修好的家绕个圈，送到家门口时，我们仍有未聊完的话题。

跟朋友在一起的感觉真好，
让我更觉得未必需要另一半在身边。
朋友总是给我一种很舒服的感觉，一起欢喜，一起悲，无穷的回忆。
这也许情侣中给不到我的感觉吧？

友谊万岁！

一年有十二个情人节

◎日记情人节(Diary Day)：1月14日

　　在这一天，情侣们会互赠足够纪录一整年恋爱情事的日记 本，以此象征两人将携手走过未来一年，并留下更多美好回忆。
　　

◎华仑亭情人节(Valentine's Day)：2月14日
　　西元3世纪时，罗马皇帝为避免已婚男子不愿离家当兵， 发布了一道禁止结婚的法令，但华仑亭主教依旧违背皇帝旨 意，秘密为青年人举行婚礼。他因此遭到监禁，并于西元273 年2月14日死在狱中。后人为了纪念他，将他殉难这 天订为「华仑亭日」，后来便成为世人耳熟能详的情人节。
　　在西洋传统里年轻人是华仑亭日的主角，他们在这个节日 里郑重其事地为恋人选择礼物、鲜花，以表达自己的爱慕之 情。痴情的少女则会按古老传说，在华仑亭日前一晚把月桂树叶 放在枕头上，盼望自己在梦中同自己的心上人相会。
　　在美国，华仑亭日不仅是年轻人的节日，亲H朋友间也可 以互送小礼物，以表达感情、增进友谊。许多商家都特别出 售装饰成心形的巧克力糖、系着缎带的红玫瑰，以及郁金香花束 等礼品，而各式各样的情人卡片更令人眼花撩乱。
　　对许多亚洲女子而言这一天显得格外重要，因为尽管文化 上较为传统保守，社会价值观一般已普遍接受女孩子在这天主动 向心仪的对象示好。
　　

◎白色情人节(White Day)：3月14日
　　西方并没有所谓「白色情人节」的传统，在东方，2月14 日女孩送男孩礼物表达情意之后，如果对方也有同样的好 感或情意，就会在3月14日回送女孩一份情人礼物，表示 彼此心心相印；如果男孩对女孩没感觉，只要刻意忽略这个日 子，便算是委婉的拒绝。
　　现在情人节由谁主动送礼已经不重要了，只要有一方在2 月14日收到异性送的礼物表达爱意，他或她在3月14日 「白色情人节」这一天就会选择是否有所回应；而对已经在 一起的爱侣来说，这一天则是回赠对方情人节礼物的日子。
　　

◎黑色情人节(Black Day)：4月14日
　　虽然并非天下有情人都能天长地久、甚至曾经拥有，但谁 说孤家寡人或旷男怨女就不能过情人节？「黑色情人节」就 是属于单身贵族们的情人日。在前两个月他们或许既没收到 甜蜜小礼物，也没人可以送巧克力，但4月14日这天，大 家共聚一堂，彼此鼓励、加油打气，化悲愤为力量，倒也热热闹 闹十分开怀，藉此消除形单影只的落寞感。
　　名为黑色情人节，在这一天，打算过节的人会让自己生活 在百分百的黑色世界里，穿黑色套装、黑帽子、黑皮鞋，吃 黑豆制成的面条，喝咖啡也不加奶精，享受黑咖啡的苦涩原味。
　　

◎黄色与玫瑰情人节(Yellow and Rose Day)：5月14日
　　如果已经到了5月，你的情事还是没有任何进展，在这一 天穿着黄色衬衫或黄色套装，吃黄色咖哩饭，就是告诉大家 「I am still available」的最好暗示。春日融融，将黄色穿在身上，也相当符合季节气氛。
　　5月是玫瑰发芽的时节，气候宜人适合出游，因此许多情 侣都选在这天相偕到户外踏青，所以5月14日也有「玫瑰情人 节」之称。
　　在玫瑰日送人红玫瑰是倾诉爱意；送白玫瑰花表示仍犹豫未 决；若送上一束黄玫瑰，就是说再见了。
　　

◎亲亲情人节(Kiss Day)：6月14日
　　这是一个属于成双成对恋人的重要节日，在这一天，情侣 们不必再害羞，可以大大方方地用亲吻表达对对方的爱意。 当然，花前月下、烛光晚餐等浪漫气氛，对一吻定情可是很有帮 助的喔！
　　

◎银色情人节(Silver Day)：7月14日
　　银色情人节，是把你的意中人带回家给老爸老妈认识，或 介绍给其他你所尊敬的长辈的好机会。当然，这一天的全部 开销，都由这些「可爱的长者」买单〈为「安全」起见，你 最好先确定长辈对这个节日很熟悉〉。银色情人节也是爱侣互赠 银制礼品、饰物的日子。
　　

◎绿色情人节(Green Day)：8月14日
　　名为绿色情人节，当然和蓊郁的森林脱不了关系。酷热难 耐的夏日午后，不妨和你的另一半作一趟凉爽而清新的森林 之旅，尽情享受户外大自然，度过健康而愉悦的一天。还在 寻觅爱侣的人，可以参加Soju〈韩国绿牌薯酒〉派对，度过 喧闹的室内绿色情人节。
　　

◎音乐情人节与相片情人节(Music Day & Photo Day)：9月14日
　　音乐情人节这一天是举办大型社交活动、轻歌漫舞的日子， 也是将你的心上人介绍给朋友、同事认识的好机会。而单 身一族，更可以藉此机会看看活动现场有没有自己中意的对象。
　　许多情侣喜欢在这天就着蔚蓝晴朗的天空合影，所以9月 14日又称为「相片情人节」 。
　　

◎葡萄酒情人节(Wine Day)：10月14日
　　10月14日这一天恋人们轻啜葡萄美酒，庆祝充满诗意 的秋天。通常小俩口会选择在浪漫且别致的餐厅里共进晚餐，然 后聊聊彼此对未来的规画，以及共同的目标等话题。
　　

◎橙色情人节与电影情人节(Orange Day Movie day)：11月14日
　　电影情人节这一天情侣们可以连赶两场电影，或许先看一 部紧张刺激的动作发泄压力，然后再来一部感人肺腑的浪漫 爱情片互拭泪水。看完两人也该补充水分了，来杯健康的百 分百柳橙汁吧！单身的人这一天也要喝杯柳橙汁，当然，想喝两 杯才痛快也没人管得着。
　　

◎拥抱情人节(Hug Day)：12月14日
　　12月14日，想和你的情人抱多久都可以，在公开的场 合拥抱，向世人宣告你俩的爱意，也让寒冷的冬天变得格外 温馨。尤其是那些甜甜蜜蜜庆祝过2月14日华仑亭情人节 的情侣，到了年底依然能热情相拥，也见证了两人情意如昔。

短暂的假期

一周的学校假期开始了。惊奇的是，我不觉得兴奋。平平无奇的，忧忧闷闷的。

开始的第一天，独自一人办理一些事情，独自一人乘搭轻快铁，独自一人走在街上，走在购物中心里，。 在人群当中，独自的我观察了更多周遭的事，一个人也有独自的快乐。也就是那“快”乐，过得特别快。

但是偏头痛为我带来了苦恼，无法忍受。。。

近朱则赤，近墨则黑。
近一些忧闷的人，心情也自然地被影响了， 无法自拔，无可救药。
一个人的快乐消失得无影无踪。

No Boundaries

Today i'm fond of one particular song - No Boundaries.
Either by Kris Allen or Adam Lambert, i just like its lyrics.
Especially these...

"With every step you climb another mountain
Every breath is harder to believe
You make it through the pain, whether the hurricanes
To get to that one thing

Just when you think the road is going nowhere
Just when you almost gave up on your dreams
They take you by the hand and show you that you can

There are no boundaries!"

Yeap, it is truly right. there is no boundaries. Not a single one.

It really inspires me to do my assignment though i'm extremely tired.
Everyone were rushing and doing it diligently.
The atmosphere is tense!

I'm using the music to keep me awake and drank coffee to stimulate my brain cells.
How i wish i can have a good rest...
Just like this...

hug my teddy and enter into sweet dream...

May my wish come true XD

Topic

Every essay has a topic.
Every conversation has a topic too.

Recently, i had become the topic of others.

Firstly i knew was in a skype chatroom.

One morning, a dude pop up in my msn.

started with "congratz"
"congrats of what" i replied.
He continued the conversation and pasted some prove from the skype chatroom.
They were talking about me and him...

"she looks cute"
"20 years old only"
etc...

Secondly was when i were talking with someone on the phone, another side were calling on my name.
Why talking about me again?

Thirdly these group of people were out for discussion. Again my matter appeared and my stuff were answered by someone else.
Talking about me again?

This afternoon one of these from the group added me in facebook. Am i become known to them? Although i never see them before... just appear virtually on the internet.

What can i do?
Nothing... just let the time goes by and i as the topic will be outdated and vanished...

Hope

Today during the Lord's table meeting, a brother shared a verse in the book of Romans.

"Through whom also we have obtained access by faith into his grace in which we stand and boast because of the hope of the glory of God. "

Romans 5:2

The brother reminded me of the hope on earth. Every time i felt that i have no hope on many things in my life, including my studies and future.

In this sense, from the bible verses reveals that our hope is that we will be brought into the glory of God, that is, into His expression.

Wow~ Such a glorious hope. I can be brought into the glory of God.

This will be full realised in the coming millennial kingdom, where Christ will be revealed as our glory. Today, we are in the hope of this coming glory.

I have found my hope in life :)

School experience

Today was the 3rd day of SE (School Experience). Finally i have the time to blogging.

The first day we were late due to the bus. Four of us (Nadiah, Husna, Mages and I = 1 Malaysia) are at the same school, SMK Tanjong Mas. It is a unique school with special education.

First day we attended the school assembly and met the only Chinese teacher who carry out her practicum at this school. She graduated from UM and studied at OPSI. There is only one Chinese permanent teacher at this school, Madam Tee who teach History. The students at this school are all Malays.

After the assembly we introduced ourselves to the headmaster, Tuan Haji Che Jusoh. I noticed that all the headmasters of this school are Haji. Then we proceed to the Senior Assistant of Administration. He directed us to our mentor in the Self Learning Access Centre (SAL). This is where the place we sit. The first day had nothing much to do and bored...

Second day we started to snap pictures as needed in the portfolio. We also observed the class in SAL. The last hour we even entered a Form One class to teach summary. After that we visited Fandi in the hospital. He had appendix operation which is same with me 3 years ago. I only reached hostel around 5pm and collapsed on the bed until 7pm awake by my roommate. It was so tiring...

Today was the third day. Husna and I went to the ICT room. It was the same as my secondary school, including the laboratories, sewing room, cooking room and even the name of the hall is the same. But my school hall in SMK Taman Tasik, Dewan Ibnu Khaldun is more advance.

Basically the life in school is not busy. We just busy filling up our field note book and visit the canteen. Took two meals in the canteen today. It cost me more than RM 10 for two meals. But thanks Pn Azizah who treated our brunch because we had continue her class yesterday.

2pm we attended the meeting at Bilik Gerakan. It was so hot and i keep sweating. Actually the days in school i'm sweating all the day. Luckily i didnt dozed off.

3.30pm go back~ fetched by Mak Cik Jah that cost RM 2.
