My arrival into a foreign land.

Upon my arrival, I have been busy, busy, busy. I have been out doing shopping for clothes and all the necessities. It had been a long journey from Malaysia to Korea then to America. The plane ride wasn't as boring as I had expected it to be. There were lots of movies, drama, documentaries, etc. to watch. Not to forget about the food on the plane, it was surprisingly good. The service was decent. But like most things not everything is a bed of roses. Even roses have its thorns. With all my effort to have a good nights sleep I was only able to have a little repose. The seats were uncomfortable for sleeping. It was able to lean back but not far enough to allow me to rest properly. There wasn't anything for my head to lean on except for my brothers shoulder.

Besides all that, the trip was pretty interesting. It's not often that a person gets to experience 2 mornings on the same day. And the sight of the time change was stunning. Here are some pictures I took in the airport in Korea and in the plane:









My bro dead tired.



When we first stepped into my cousins house. We were instantly greeted by this two adorable dogs.



Pepper


Bowden

Pepper belongs to my cousin's friend and Bowden is my cousin's dog. There are more pictures of our trip in my brothers facebook so go take a look if you want to see more.

I almost forgot to mention. I am typing this post on my first ever laptop. The first laptop I have ever own.

My final post in Malaysia

The gifts of all kind
Will forever be a sign
Of the memories left behind
Of yours and of mine

Will a friendship last forever?
This we may find out or never
But it is my hope we do not forget each other
Especially the things we did together

The hugs and handshakes we had as we said "bye"
Will hopefully be the same when we return and say "hi"
Keep us in your prayers
Throughout the many years
That God may bless you with a friendship that grows greater
That may last forever and ever

May God bless you all
From the outside to the inner core
May God bless you all
Now and forever more

Till we meet again! =)

The poem to my friends.

At the beginning
I did not know what you were thinking
I did not know if you were my liking
I only know your name was Chung Khiing

Never were you lazy
From the start you were a little crazy
Yet you are my friend
Oh dear Su Ann

We thought you could bend a beam
Because you acted like a him
Only to find out your name was Kym

Unique as a frog
You look scary as a hawk
But Darren Kok you rock!

Ben, your the man
You plan to study SAM ( Southern Australian Matriculation)
I know you can
So don't worry about the exam

Thin and not round as a ball
You love Alvin ( The chipmunk)
And your name is Calvin

Krystal Kok a name with a double "k"
Who lives in KK ( Kota Kemuning)
Well, that's all I can say

Your name is like Krystal Kok but instead of a double "k" it has a double "c"
You are daring and not a sissy
Crystal Chin the Aussie

To all those names written in there please do not take the mean things I have said seriously. It was only meant to be a joke. And to the other friends whose names was not in the poem. Don't worry I have not forgotten about you. I am terribly sorry to say that I have ran out of time to find a rhyme for your names. Stay tuned, there will be another poem coming up.

And if you really have nothing better to do than to read this blog. Here is another poem I wrote a long time ago during one of those hazy days. I had a thought of what hell would be like and that some people are living in hell on earth.

In the dark my eyes lay waste
I could not see through this thick blinding haze
My tears have run dry
Even my fears forbids me to cry

When I pleaded no one could hear
No one seem to know I am here
Living in worry and in fear
I know my end is near

And then came a light
That saved me from the blight
I need not hide
For in me he abide

My Savior and my friend
The one who is my guide
I will not see a terrible end
Because he is on my side

The battle that was lost
Was not without cause
For it has now been won
When I have finally been reborn

Bagan Lalang

Last Sunday me, Su Ann, Joey, Darren, Su Kym and Krystal went to Bagan Lalang aka. Sepang Beach. We had a great time together taking pictures, catching crabs and just hanging out. One of the reasons we were there was to take pictures of the beautiful sunset but unfortunately it was a cloudy day. But in a way a cloudy day was a good thing. If it wasn't for the clouds we would probably have been fried by the sun. Here are some of the pictures:





Looking for crabs.

Krystal and Darren releasing the crabs.





And finally dinner.

At the end of the day, crabs wont the only thing we picked up. Thanks to Darren's initiative to "save the world" the other stuff we picked up were crap left behind by some inconsiderate Malaysians.

Are you a Sunday Christian?

The Sunday Christian

Lord, How can someone be a Christian on Sunday
then turn into the devil's imp on Monday?
And then by Tuesday you're so far gone
you just aren't sure where you belong.

All at once it's Wednesday, and it's prayer meeting again
but you don't have time so you don't attend.
Now it's Thursday Lord what can you do?
Maybe you should say a little prayer or two.

When Friday finally shows it's face
Have you given the Lord His proper place?
Before you know it it's Saturday
Time to get outside and play.

You've not given the Lord any thought all week.
Now it's Sunday again and time to find you seat
The Lord has been trying to reach out to you.
But you have avoided him just like the flu.

Maybe if you just took the time to listen.
Then you would become His kind of Christian
One who reads his Bible and says his prayers.
And attends his Church and shows he cares.

Not the "Sunday Only" Christian now,
but all week long and everyday, Wow!
That's the kind of Christian I want to be,
All week long and for eternity.

Not worth posting anything anymore.

I have been busy for the pass few days. I don't think it is worth posting anything anymore. My ideas to continue using this blog may not be possible. I don't think I can own a blog in my university. But I guess if I am in the mood I will post a little bit more before I enter school.

Some updates on what I have been up to:

Just came back from a short trip to Singapore on Sunday. I managed to meet up with Poh Hian in Bukit Batok, Singapore. Even though I wasn't able to hang out with them, I was lucky enough to have had a chance to take some pictures with them.

On Monday night I made some Rum and Raisin Ice-cream.


Homemade Rum & raisin ice-cream in a caramel basket with a wafer stick impaled in it.

It's getting late. So I better be off to bed. I have to wake up early tomorrow if I want to see you guys at the centre.
