back again to write... went on a road trip to malaysia last weekend together with my best friends, wei beng, jonathan and leonard who join us later. Quite fun i would say, travelling all the way to penang and stayed there for 2 nights. Got stop over at Yong Peng and Ipoh while on our way to Pulua Pinang. We set off from Singapore at 5.45am and reach Penang at around 4pm plus. Went around the places to eat and also went to the night market which is very crowded and happening. Got my sis a necklace at the market there. We also went around visiting the places of interest there.

After our stay there, went of to KL for another 2 days. Went to fetch Leonard who took a flight to join us at KL. After that, drove down to the city to check in to our hotel. Thank God, our hotel is very close to Chinatown. Alot of clothes and accesories there, beng they all start to display their bargain skills.... hhahaha along the way, came across this stall that sells luo han guo logan drink which i totally loves it. Think for that night alone, i drank about 3-4 cups of it. Gotten my self a watch which i really likes and also two shirt which i bought when they are about to close. After that, went to eat again whenever we find something interesting, we will just sit down and order one bowl to try it out. Think this is realy a good way for us to sample the food.

The next day, after our breakfast, we set off on our journey back to Johor Bahru. Reach there about 5 plus 6. Went to watch movie and eat kenny roger at Jusco. After that is the long traffice jam at the custom. In the end, manage to reach Home at around 1.15am. Thank God for the opportunity of the trip and the fun we have together :)

Before I write anything, I would like to wish all mothers, Happy Belated Mothers' Day! Yesterday attedned the church service, the sermon is taken from the scripture on samuel and moses. Didn't really take in alot, but I know that Woman is very strong in emotional and mental. Also that woman needs to be together with man through marriage to be complete, same goes to the man. After that, had a small award ceremony for all the mothers in the church. Thanks to Joan and family, we enjoyed quite a lot. Also, there's announcement on night cycling which will start from Sembawang all the way to town. it will falls on the 6th June, 10pm, gathered at 589A sembawang plce before setting off. Anyone of you interested? If yes, can let me know, will help you to register first. The fee is 12 which includes the rental of the bike.

After church, went to causeway point to have our lunch and then loitered around the area waiting for the movie time to reach. Went to watch the movie: what happens in vegas by cameroon diaz and ashton kutcher. The movie is again some typical romance comedy, just for laugh only. Not bad la.. laugh quite a lot. After the movie, went to starbucks cafe with the gals to have a cup of coffee and thinking of what to do next. After a few hours there, went to find a place to settle our dinner. Due to Mother's day, a lot of places is full of people. In the end, settled down at mos burger. Had a good chat there, basically we just talk about any topic that comes to our mind. I enjoy it alot. The time really passes very fast. After a while, realised that its 9 plus ler.. then the girls went back home while leonard, wei beng and me went to arthur house to watch EPL. Eventually, Man U win the EPL Title. However, I think this will motivate Chelsea to win the Champions league title, (hopefully) ahhahaah.. After that went back home.

Today, woke up, heard from my mum that my sis didn't talk to her yesterday for one whole day. Its because of some monetary issues. Felt rather sad, cos its really not worth it to hold grudges against one another or hurt each other feelings over some monetary issues. I hope that I can explain to my sis about it and she will be willing to listen to my advice. Frankly speaking, I use to have this thought when my family uses the money that i earn in brunei. However, after that I thought it through that money can be earn again but the relationship with your family is very precious. Once broken, it will be very difficult to patch up. Love surpasses everything. This phrase is very simple but yet difficult to practise in our daily life. I think I still got alot to learn about handling the relations with people around me.

Tomorrow will be going back to my unit ler.... a bit sian but no choice. I just pray that I will be able to get over it quick and continue with my life together with my PINK I/C. hahahaha .... 24 MORE DAYS TO ORD!!!!!!!

Yesterday went back to unit to submit my docket and at the same time apply my oversea leave for the penang trip. Will be away from 16-19 may. Felt rather weird when on the journey to the camp. Felt like i'm a new recruit reporting to the camp, not knowing which bus stop to alight, its all part of the side effect of leaving the place for so long,near to 1.5 yrs huh.. After done up everything, wet back home to rest, felt really tired and frustrating, cos because of the weather and the long waiting time for the bus to arrive.

When reach home, rest a while, watch a bit of Dvds then at night went out to have supper with shermaine, jonathan, ken and the rest. Ken ask me about the issue on taking up the CE class. Frankly speaking, I didn't really thought about it or should I say totally forgotten about it. I must really apologise for not taking it seriously. Also, Jonathan ask me about taking the worship on 1st june as song leader. Well, its has been a while since i last lead worship in church. Dunno whether can handle or not.

Please pray for me. I've come to realise that ever since I came back, I've been rather lethargic in my personal life and also my walk with God. I seems to be using the phrase 'trying to adapt'as an excuse. I've start to read up the bible again, trying to fulfill the bible reading challenge. I think God is really speaking to me, its just that all this while I've been shutting my ears from Him. Pray for me that I will be discipline enough to read on His word and meditate on it daily. Also, pray that I will be sensitive to the Holy Spirit and also to be submissive too.

Later will be going out with my family to bring my grandma out for meal. Its been nearly a year since I last saw her. Pray for us that it will be a fruitful time for everyone of us. Also, my sis is applying to get into NIE sponsorship for the degree. Now she is waiting for the date to take the test. Please pray for her that she will be able to fulfill the requirements. Thats all for now. I thank you all for the prayers. God Bless!

Now at home slacking..... yesterday went out with jonathan in the afternoon to settle my UOL application while he settle his curtin application. Finally, manage to submit all the necessary documents and now just wait for the 1st term to start. At the same time, need to settle my loan for the course, still thinking of who to find as gaurantor. Hopefully will be able to settle it by this two weeks. After settle our application, went to starbucks to relax. Talk a bit of our life, share with each other about our views on relationship, quite a good chat actually. After that went to meet up with Nick, actually wanna eat at orchard but after that change our mind as we are meeting joyann at TPY Hub so we decided to go there instead. Had a goog chat with nick, talk about the current situation in singapore, and also about the usual topic, NS. After that, nick went off for his cell group while me and jonathan starts to loiter around the place, waiting for the time to pass as its still quite early to the meeting time.

Finally, met up with joyann and proceed to have our meal together. Had a good time of sharing, and she share with us about the issues on trusting the holy spirit. Many a times, we often choose to act on our own even though we known that the holy spirit has already prompted us to do what. In the end, we either took a longer time to complete the task or we failed the task. I agreed that sometimes it really is difficult to listen to the holy spirit especially when the situation seems rather in our favor. However, thru her sharing , i understand that if we listen to the holy spirit, the result we get will be more abundant than the result we get on our own.

After the dinner, we bid each other goodbye and took the train back home. On the way, jonathan ask me for opinion on whether he should take up culinary or entreprenuership. Frankly speaking, I really dunno how to advise him thus i just speak what comes to my mind. Hopefully it will give him some advice ba...... After reaching home, took a hot bath, was about to slepp when ken called me to ask me out for supper. I agreed to go as it is a good time for me to interact with the rest and at the same time build up the bonding again.

The supper wasn't really nice, but enjoy the chatting at the playground. I come to realise that we all have grown up and are facing problems of our own. I can only pray we could maintain our friendship so that we can always share with each other our problems, praying for one another, thats what friends are for.

Thinking of going back to my unit tomorrow to pass them my docket so that i could apply my leave for the penang trip. Really dread to go back sia.....

Been back for few days ler, trying very hard to adapt back to the environment here, especially the weather. Felt rather sick for the past few days, due to the hot and humid weather. Went for Cell group last saturday. Felt rather awkward and a bit not focus cos hasn't been really attending a cell group for so long. Hopefully, as i began to meet up with them more often each week, it will become better ba.

Went to church on sunday, felt really glad to see the people which I have not met for quite sometime. However, couldn't feel the warmth le, may be is because I didn't take the initiative to go speak to them ba. Message for the service is on the topic, God is possible. Think the sermon quite good, telling us that no matter what we do, we can not use it to earn our place in God's kingdom. After that, went for lunch together with Leonard and at the same time went to settle my handphone, gotten a new number : 81574281. During lunch, Leonard updated me about the things that happened while I was away. Felt rather worried for the people, and I pray that things will be sorted out for them. Went back home to rest a while, then headed down to Yishun to meet Jun Hong to buy the gift for Jun Yue's 21st Birthday.

After that, took the bus to pasir ris to meet with Sarah and Zhi Wei. Reach the chalet, but Jun Yue not around. Thus we eat as we wait for him. Saw him then pass him the present, Hope he will like it. After that, Zhi yi came over to join us. At the end of the night, no one stayed overnight with Jun Yue, so Jun hong, Zhi Yi and me stayed with him lor. Talk alot, updating each other of our life. Next morning waited for the chalet personnel to settle the check out. after that went to white sand mall for breakfast then we went on seperate ways. Jun Hong ask me whether want to organise a chalet for our own, still thinking about it.

Please pray for me that I will be able to adapt fast to the environment. Also, my formation badge is missing!! Don't know where I place it sia, pray that i will be able to recover it. Thats it for now, Thanks alot and God Bless!!! :)

Yesterday took half day off in the afternoon to go to the post office to send parcel back home. Spend the whole afternoon at the coffeebean, chatting with Eunice and Edina. After that went to the bus terminal to take the bus to Gadong to meet Arthur for the movie: Ironman. While I was Waiting at the terminal, I saw this interesting scene. There's a bus which fails to start after several tries by the driver. Thus, the driver decided to try jump start the vehicle. Heres the interesting part: He went to ask all the male passenger out of the vehicle to help to push the vehicle while he try to start it. So one by one, they get out and move to the front of the bus to push it. After a few tries, they finally managed to start it and all the passengers get back to the bus again.

I find it rather interesting. The people here are really united and helpful to one another. Imagine, if we change the scenerio to Singapore's context what would happen? All you will get is frustrated passenger who will complain and grumble about it. They will demand for a refund of the fare and worst still may even lodge a complaint about it. Thus, I think that we should learn to be like the people here, try to help one another if we can.

Okay, now talk about the movie. The movie, I would say is not bad la. The plot is rather simple but the best part about the moive is the armour suit for iron man. Its really very nice, and sophiscated. The scene on the weapons is also good. I Think its a show worth watching.

Alright thats all for now, will be back for good tomorrow! will talk to you all more when i return ba! EOT LOR!
