It Was Amazing

I guess I'm settled, used to uni life again. No more thinking back of enjoying back home so often during lectures already.

I mean, why not?

2 months break is quite long.

I've gone travelling to Genting with family.

I've been to Damai for photoshoot with friends.

I've been to Permai for Jungle Trekking, seeing the nice waterfall at the peak, swimming, football on beach, kayak-ing and nice seafood dinner. (Thank you for the college group)

Catched up with some friends.

Drove enough already.

Truly enjoyed and relaxed.

Back Again

Side note: I'm back to uni for a week already, starting my 1st semester in degree. Very interesting it is.

Two weeks ago, I went to ISCF of my secondary school, mainly to visit and encourage the juniors through a short sharing. Faith comes by hearing of testimony.

I must say, it was very exciting.

Was anointed in sharing and encouraged the juniors. Thank you God. At the same time, I was also encouraged by them as well. Seeing the very young ones playing the guitar and worship God is amazing, though they may not be very skillful. Seeing also leaders rising up, and boldly sharing about the Word. It is indeed the heart what God seeks.

Memories about there kept flashing back. Amazing. Without realising, it ended already! =)

By the way, the Junior Science Labs which were burnt down 2 years ago were just about to be reconstructed again. Good good.

How i miss this place.

See the building far behind? It's surrounding is covered.

New Wife

Side note: Yea, I finished my Foundation for a long time already and I didn't blog at all. Enjoying at home so much. By the way, Blogger recently added some new cool basic templates. Was thinking of moving to Tumblr for nice templates but now, no.

Don't normally want to post this kind of posts, but I'm really grateful to John for being a great matchmaker. Ever since 2 weeks ago, I've been spending quite a great deal of time with my new wife.

Take a look how beautiful she is...

 

Also feeling very happy finally having a guitar. Been borrowing guitar from friends for the second half of the last semester. Haha.

Going to enjoy the rest of my break before entering undergraduate. World Cup's very interesting this time.

The Profession

Anyone: What do you do as a profession?
Me: I'm a university student.
Anyone: That's awesomely challenging. I respect you!
Me: Duh.

To be frank, a university student is really an awesome occupation. I mean, how many people can really endure the stress you get with a whole pile of assignments and projects being thrown to you? Not forgetting the tests and the finals of course.

It's my last two weeks of being a Foundation student by the way. Just realised it not long ago. Another week of academic week and another week of finals. No study week. Then back home to Kuching I will be for 2 months. I should sound very excited because every time i went back for a break, it's only one week long due to my study system.

Me in 1st sem! Look so naive hor?

Looking back at the photos when I just came here, I was way different from the me now. I learnt things. I experienced things. I've changed. For instance, I like sports now. But some things don't change. I still have my natural dark eye bags with me. Is proud of it by the way.

This 2 weeks is going to be stressful indeed. And Farewell Night is coming up. Can already foresee what I will be doing in Kuching.

Let's wait for my next post, hopefully saying I feel very relieved with all the projects and finals ending already, enjoying the feeling of stepping on Kuching International Airport once again.

Going to be a super nerd now.

EDX 25

Side note: I saw the calendar today and just remembered that I will be going back home in another 3 more weeks. Too fast.

I actually slept for 10 hours straight today. Awesome. Then, I had a nap for about 3 hours in the afternoon. So awesome la. So proud of myself. =D

Yesterday, EDX, an event I joined in my uni has finally ended. It was quite grand because the invitation department successfully invited Tun Mahathir to come and give a talk and officiate our event!

But so sad, I have to duty and I can't hear the talk. Can't even capture a picture of him when he's standing only about less than one metre from me. Too many photographers sneaked in and surrounded him. Plus, as a committee, I can't capture his photo.

Can only see the projector screen projecting him giving the talk inside the hall, outside the hall.

We all as the committees were all standing and preparing to welcome Tun Mahathir to come out and sign our guest book at a table prepared for him after his talk ended outside the entrance to the hall.

The plan was like this, after signing the guest book, he was supposed to come over to the stage we prepared just for him to officiate the event. But what actually happened is this, after signing the guest book, he was right away guided to the VIP place. I'm not sure if he's tired because surrounded by too much people. He's like a celebrity yesterday. I heard that his secretary forgot to tell him about the flow of officiating our event at the stage after signing the guest book.

But whatever, it's not like I'm a great fan of him. But I really respected him as a great man though. Anyway, we captured a group photo with him, with all the EDX committees together. That's awesome at least.

The stage we prepared just for him.

Very nice hor?

That's about it. EDX 25. Been busy for this event for a while. Now with no more events and the semester is ending, it's time to start focusing on exams. Enjoyed to be as a committee. Learnt a lot of stuffs.

Passion

Side note: I'm actually picking guitar up again after so long. =) (John, I know you're going to say finally..)

If you have clicked on some of my friends' blogs under the awesome reads section at the side, you might have noticed that some of them have lose the passion to blog, or to be exact, have quitted blogging.

Some, but not all, have lose the passion due to the busy-ness in life, finding no time to sit down, relax and blog about even once a week. Priotized in something more than blogging, having no time to blog and feel that blogging has no longer become a part of them. And so there goes their blogging passion.

This thought actually came to me through a notebook.

 

This is the notebook that I used to jot down notes on for church, youth meetings and college group meetings back in Kuching. Feeling bored at one time, I flipped open the book and glanced through a few sharings.

The one I'm highlighting here, is about passion for God. I realised that if you stop serving in church or sharing to people about how great is our God in everyday life, your passion for God can just die, real fast. You feel separated from God and there goes the passion. It gets worse when you focus on studies or club activities even more till u have no time for God. Yes, in the past, sin separated us from God, but Jesus had took the initiative to suffer for us so that we reconnect to God.

Ya, when I first entered college, I was quite conscious in my studies and thinking that going to church once a week is enough. I know that I can pray and ask Him for help when I have problems. And it gets worse from then.

I thank God he is faithful for us to come back whenever we are lost, like the parable of Prodigal's son.

Good friday today. Remember that it is because of love, Jesus was willing to be on the cross. He was able to endure when he was hit each time because His love is more than enough to cover the pain.
