You get the picture rite..=)
haha

i first met hazel last year..
during MYPG 1..
and the 1st thing dat i thought about her is..
this gurl is really really quiet..
in fact she oni said one thing to me
and that was about not going to school the next day
on the bus home from Kluang..


but since then,
ive seen her 4 more times..
19th Dec
MYPG 3
FWP 2
TOP youth prayer rally..
and im really glad dat ive had the time to know her better..


she loves catz..
and pizza..=)
she is a HUGE Brooke Fraser fan..
she is humour-full and witty..
very smart..and very practical..


takes good photos..photogenic..=)
a good guesser..and knows how to make ppl laugh..
and she loves to read newspaper..hahaha

tutup aurat..hahahaha

frankly,
i dun see someone younger den me..
infact, i see someone who has "overstepped" (chinese way of saying it)
me in spiritual things..

she, like me, is a PK (pastors kid)
and i find that she has a deep maturity
which by the way,
she doesnt like to show off..


she doesnt purposely go and ask deep questions (like mua XD, sadly)
to show off..
but when asked, she has the ability to carry the topic off like a well-read person..

she has been brought up in the best of ways,
and i commend her parents for that..
Congrats Pastor Leonard and Aunty May Chin..=)

itz fun talking to her..
esp to hear her jokes..hahahaha..


haha..
im really
really really really really
really really really
really really
REALLY
honoured to have a fellow MYPGer like Hazel..
shez really passionate about God..
and shez not afraid to stand up for wad she believes in..
shez hardworking and does the things she sets her mind to..

the oni downside about Hazel is this..
shez about 5-6 cm taller den me..
and datz kinda depressing..=(
she actually had to hunch her back when she took pic with me
just so to make me feel better dat i looked taller in the picture..hahahah

so sensitive and patronizing at the same time!!lol

and she is very very slim..
haha..unbelievably slim..
when i saw her in december, she actually looked like she lost weight..
and SHOT UP!!
believe me now?really tall..long legs and long hands..
im officially jealous..haha
datz her and her bff..

OMIGOSH!!
why la, ive got soo short genes..
better not blame the fat part on my dad..HAHAHAHA
sorry papa..

anywayz back to Hazel..haha

Oh my child..

Here I am again..

Telling you I love you..

I've forgiven you, my Child

I've been faithful to you

time and time again

I have remained so..

Do I love you less

because you have done wrong?

Do I love you less

because you have sinned against Me?

Do I love you less

because you disobeyed Me?

Do I love you less

because you did the things I hate?

I died for you willingly..

I have redeemed you O Child..

you tell Me..

Do I love you less?

¹⁹ O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive. O Lord, pay attention and act. Delay not, for your own sake, O my God, because your city and your people are called by your name.

Merdeka..

52 years ago,

we yelled our 1st Merdeka..

52 years down the road,

we've already yelled countless Merdekas..

yet,

are we truly set free?

society has yet to breakforth from its pre-Merdeka mindset..

im sure many of you will agree with me..

alot of pressing issues are at hand,

and here, we take some time to put that aside and celebrate our Merdeka..

some ppl are busy partying..

some ppl are busy commenting on Malaysia Today..

some ppl are busy reading those comments on Malaysia Today..

some ppl are busy with their own lives

some ppl are ready to party ALL NITE LONG..ALL NITE..

but in the midst of such bewilding chaos

some have chosen to set time aside to pray for their nation..

these nameless warriors are the ones truly concerned about their nation

these nameless warriors spend hours on their knees (collectively la XD)

praying that God will heal this land..

these are the true Patriots..

these are those who are there not to party, but to "parley"

(potc fans knw wad im talking about..)

so take a moment to think..

are u still stuck in the stone ages

making fun of each other..

or will we embrace 1Malaysia..

yes, the government's 1Malaysia is bullsh..bullcrap..

and yes, i almost typed out the real word..

but LET US make this our own

LET US make this our reality

LET US embrace 1Malaysia

LET US be the ones,

who bring the change to this nation..

Be you
Christians, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus..

if ure heart is only for the welfare of your kind..

sorry, you are not Malaysian..

today,

let us rid ourselves of our anti-Malaysia syndrome

and let us bring change to this nation..

Lord,

change my heart to be more in love with Malaysia everyday

and not dwell on what she has to offer me

but what i have to offer Her!

rest..

sometimes
i just want to fall asleep
and not wake up

i literally mean it..
in human terms..
die

i want to shun away from all this
hurt
pain
suffering

not wake up and see the hurt in this world..
not wake up and smell the defeat of humankind..
not wake up and witness my past sins haunt me..

i wish to fall into a deep slumber,
never to regain consciousness..

ppl tell me not to be so morbid..
dun plan ur funeral, my mum always says..

but than again,
come to think about
eternal bliss?
there's no such thing..

i mean,
uve got to end up somewhere dont u?
u live..to relive to relive to relive to disappear?
im sorry la..
but thatz even more depressing den me wanting to sleep forever..

i just turned on biblegateway
cz abby asked me to check someting..

and i read this

Daniel 12:12-13
¹² Blessed is the one who waits for and reaches the end of the 1,335 days.

¹³ "As for you, go your way till the end. You will rest, and then at the end of the days you will rise to receive your allotted inheritance."

eternal bliss?
no..
the bible doesnt promise eternal bliss..

but what it does promise is rest..
rest in Jesus who shall one day resurrect us into the new heaven and earth..
rest in the Spirit and our deeds follow us..

this human vessel grows old and weary..
but there is a purpose for this unrefined soul..

Lord,
let me endure till the end..
You have said the field is wide..
the mission field is staring at me..
You have said many are called, but few are chosen..
and You also said that the weary and heavy laden should drink of Your water
and never thirst.

help me Lord..
im struggling..
help me Oh God..

it is no longer i who live, but Christ who lives in me..
i am
officially

here is something interesting i found!!
WOOTS!

www.joyofbaking.com

itz a very very good site for ppl who like to cook
and bake!! and the recipes are free..

XD

Imagination..

I need to be reminded of who I was
When I took my first steps out the door
All I said now follows me around
I'm reminded I'm not like that anymore

I uprooted and miles behind me
Are the faces and the home I love
You've brought to my attention
I'm slowly changing and becoming
What I wanted to stop

Isn't that just like a finite mind
Setting out with such righteous indignation
But now I'm at your feet
Could you look at me with some imagination

Lord, im not doing what i set out to do..
remind me dear Lord..
