Dreadful weeks

Last week and this week was really...dreadful.

Last week was really busy with all the assignment's "SUDDEN" approach of assignments' deadline, plus all that hectic quizzes which I never seem to be able to finish in time. :(

This week was kinda stressful also..
Monday - Worried of getting barred from msian studies due to multiple absence. Hopefully not :(
Tuesday - overexerted myself.
Wednesday - driving halfway to uni only realise that I forgot to bring my wallet! Oh how scary! Driving without license is like sure-dead when u meet a policeman. Stayed in uni & fren's house for the whole day @o@...to prepare for the forum presentation! xD
Thursday - suddenly the lecturer says that for our group, it will be postponed to next week! GREAT last minute draw-lots and notice! GOODNESS how unorganised and wasting of our time!
Friday - Holiday...or rather...Stuck at home studying some BIOSTATs which I don't know what's the point of studying this subject. Anyway, it's a pain. =P

Ahh...more quizes are coming up. Luckily 2 assignments are considered done. 2 more coming up soon. FINAL EXAM COMING! ONO!!
HOLIDAY is COMING as well! weeeee...ops too early to celebrate that. :(

Aiyh hope I can cope with my studies and my LIFE. Uhhh weeks ahead = no life. :X

March

So fast, time flies..

and it's March already!

o.o

wished the time would stop during the better times..

wished the time would speed up during the sad times..

Reports - done? nope (last minute job)

Assignments - when?...what to do??.. (last second job)

Exams? - oh no when issit!? (last day job)

Hectic life. :P

I'd wish I could smile everyday. Well at least that makes my life more meaningful. :)

What am I talking!? -.-'

Bahh..better go to sleep. zzZ

Before going to bed, reminder reminder!!

God has been good - this is true! :)

God has been, is, and always will be Good to me..and u..and everyone! =D

"Guard your heart with diligence, as from it springs up the well of life."

Life is really depressing..*heavy sigh*

Aiyh. . . life is really . . . tough.

It's like I've had enough of these troubles... uhh.

Feel like banging my head against the wall...having a memory loss..forgetting everything except God and my family,.my frens.

But the truth is, I don't wanna bang my head. That's just pointless. I duwan to forget the good times..though I hope to forget the bad times..anyway..I'd damage my brain cells too. noo!

I'm really hopeless and tactless now.

It's just like what they say "You're a hopeless barger."

Well its true in terms of the worldly part of me.. :(

But its not true in terms of my faith in God! I do have hope! :)

This is the song that cheered me up today.

God is good all the time,
He puts a song of praise in this heart of mine,
God is gooooooooood... all the time,
Through the darkest night.. His light will shine!
God is good, Good is good, all the time.

(There are still beautiful lyrics to this song, but well this is the part where my affliction and troubles all went down the...toilet bowl for the meanwhile! yeahh!)

Blogging..?.... .

Sigh, I guess there's really no point for me to blog anymore..since I don't really fancy reading back my own diary in the future..anyway no audience also no point haha. :(
Anyway it's really bored in this blog..I'm like talking to the wall. Haha. Kinda pointless to go on.

(Aiya say only lah few days later sure start reblogging..aiyh)

The Chemistry of Life

In most of our lives..there's this "spiritual battle-equilibrium".

times when we turn away from God ⇌ times when we follow God ΔH = +ve

This is just a funny example that I've just thought of..haha. It's so..relatively easy for us to turn away from God at times...it seems like it doesn't require any input of energy!

For us to follow God and do His will...it rather require us to put in efforts(energy in this equation).. love Him, trust Him and turn to him back!

The Theft at the Dawn of the Ox Year

It was Sunday night (Chinese New Year Eve)

7.30pm

It's time for my family to go for reunion dinner at a relative's house.

We left home and headed towards there. The windows and doors were all locked.

We hang around there from 8 to 11.30pm --- excited because there's red wine and coffee liquor.

Kinda bored though...(nasty kid).

My aunt gave us an early-angpau..wee! Probably she thought we might not turn up on new year's day. :P

We left after eating Tang Yuan at 11.30pm...

11.55pm

We reached home with kinda tired feeling...everything seems normal and the stuffs all around are untidy as usual...or rather unusually more tidier...?!

I took my bath and then just remembered that I left the angpau in my pants. I looked and found my pants without the ang pau --- then oh..my mum help me take out already.

Then I was going to put together my angpau wif the angpau my grandma gave me on Sat.

Then I was feeling weird as I can't find it...because I put it on top of my stuffs in the drawer...n suddenly I realised why is the empty angpau packets that I group all together and place it in the side ----- all messed up and I can't find the one that my grandma gave me.

Then I realised something is really wrong. I think someone must have stole it ---- the 1st one that came into my mind is my maid as none of us detected any sign of break-in...yet..

I faster rush and ask my bro how much did my grandma gave and how the packet looks like (coz I don't remember). Then I looked and after checking all the angpaus (90% empty ones). I found out the angpau that my grandma gave me --- indeed it was opened before --- empty --- stolen.

I got panicked and I told my mum my drawer was obviously ransacked by someone.. But overall everything is in place..except the ang pau packets.

My mum sensed something really wrong...immediately she checked her wallet in her bag....she got a shock....200 gone...

Then my mum was furious and she check another purse....another 200 gone...new notes to wrap angpau...goodness gracious!!

Then I called my brother over. Then my mum said "Oh my goodness what if a thief broke in?"
But it's really unlikely because there's totally no obvious sign of break in at all!!

Then my mum say "Cham! What if my grandma's safe is ransacked also?". Then we faster open the closet and to our horror..the drawer is opened. We were dumbfounded.

It seems this thief is skillful at picklocking....Ok now this confirms something's really WRONG.

I told my dad to check his belongings/money if there's any missing...and he found out from his hidden drawer (under some papers)...the money is gone!..but the funny thing is that the papers on top covering and hiding the cash are placed back as it were.

At first we were suspecting the maid....but think think she won't dare to do this gua...1 time sapu all..then we thought of the possibility of her pakat'ing with outsider and allowing intruder in by giving them location location location....and keys!?

But we're really very scared and terrified...how did the fella get in?

We got lots of theories of the thief's intrusion into our house.

1) Did he came in from the rooftop? ----- but why isn't there any footprints?

(because definitely there's dust on the bottom of the shoes/whatever he's wearing on his foot ma cause my 3rd floor is really dusty) ---- but no sign of footprints anywhere in the house..

Plus...weird thing is that my maid went to the 3rd floor (storeroom) and found KC's belt there.

KC definitely won't keep his belt there...........so probably the thief used that as defence..ops I mean offense!?...but the funny thing is that my dad told us that before the maid went up...he went up and check already and he didn't notice any belt lying around......so..was the maid so scared that she took KC's belt and put it there to "protect" herself from being accused..or it's true that she found it there..? Only God knows. :)

2) Did he came in from the back-roof and go through the room window there? -- cause we were not sure if it's locked (but most probably it's locked)..and we also found that 2 pieces of wood went out of place/broken or something ---- only my dad would care to know.

3) Did he came in through the balcony? --- but we were quite sure we locked it ----- most probably he left through the balcony lah.

4) He definitely didn't go downstairs --- the "good-to-steal" items downstairs are untouched.


This thief is really weird...he arranges all the things back into place after stealing the stuffs.

I mean he didn't really ransacked our house and make it into a total mess..instead he put back everything in order...as if...he purposely don't want us to notice or realised that our house is burglared..

That's what I thought at 1st...cause most of the thieves wouldn't care much about that as they know even if the police is informed --- the police couldn't(wouldn't?) do anything about it (most of the time...in Malaysia).

Except that the drawers are pushed back but the lock is latched out. So it's quite obvious someone picklocked and stole something. Anyway probably he's in a rush.

Luckily we didn't lose our laptops (there's two laptops at obvious spots where it's...definitely visible)....my bro's laptop was left half-opened by the thief --- dunno why. Probably he hesitated because it's a heavy burden to carry and run with it. The other laptop is twice heavier than my bros..so definitely he wouldn't run away with it.

Haiyh this pussy thief must have took his sweet time searching around our house. Took almost all our cash...my bro's NTU gold medals also got stolen! Sigh*

My grandma lost alot of important stuffs... Sigh.

Monday (First day of Chinese Niu Year)

7am

My grandma rushed back home early in the morning around 7am with my uncle and aunt. My aunt gave us angpau while we were half-awake --- kinda weird like Santa Claus haha.

8am

My grandma and parents called the police and they lodged a police report. While I was still sleeping...suddenly a policeguy came in and looked at the "crime scene". The policeman interrogated my maid as she was the prime suspect (can't blame it, everyone also hope that it's not her)..poor fella crying badly. All of us felt bad but..well what to do.

1.30pm

The policeman said, "Mana ada macam ini bodoh punya pencuri? Laptop tak mau." --- well we doubt so. I think the thief is trying to avoid more hassles and troubles --- if it's so burdensome that it might by chance caused him to be caught...definitely not worth it at all...plus the total stuffs that he robbed is around 2k already. And most likely we've analysed that this thief must be climbing the roofs...imagine climbing with a sack containing a laptop. Plus this guy might not want to attract the police by selling any handphones/laptops or so. He just grabbed the cash n some of the important stuffs and ran. I think he's most probably riding a motorbike anyway.

The policeman then left our house and my mum gave them 6 mandarin oranges...since it's kinda troubling for them to come over even it's a public holiday.

3pm

Miracle happened..really thank God...after much prayers. Someone found my grandma's passport at Taman Melati and brought it to the police station in Gombak.

My brothers accompanied my grandma to retrieve it back. See? There's really something funny with the thief? Arranging the things and throwing away the passport after stealing..does he want to show that he's a kind or "clean-type-of-person" thief? Probably some house-maid..doh!!

Anyway this stolen-and-found passport incident clear off our suspicions towards the maid. We are glad that it's not her. But sometimes it's really hard to say. After all generally human's greed has no limits.

This has also 90% proven my maid's innocence..however the policeman warned us that we keep-hold of her passport just in case that if she's pakat'ing with outside people, at least she can't run away. But anyway all of us trust her lah..we'd like to return it to her instantly but...ahh guess it's okay to keep-safe for her for the mean time...also it serves as a reminder for her if she dares do steal anything! =P

Anyway thank God that none of us get injured and we're all still living and in good conditions..even though it's really traumatic to my poor mummy... :(!

Thank God for protecting everyone of us during this festive season! :) Hope you all had a great time during CNY! :)

The Evening Jog

Nowadays almost----every evening I'd jog around the park somewhere in the neighbourhood.

Feels kinda good to be exercising daily--I hope and try..

Today I was walking down the hill slope...and I saw the signboard "Berhenti"...

Then suddenly this thought came into my mind.

In our daily lives, we've been "stopping" around because of the worldly things happening around us..

Then the park where I'm jogging at...there's a hilly slope...up...n then down...

So I thought...in life there's up and downs....(humps)....slopes....We'd fall always...most of the time getting hurt and so on...and there's a straight path as well..where our live seems to be going smoothly...and there's the "Berhenti" sign...the world...that hold us back from running towards God.

I'd wish I could jog and run towards God...without ever stopping because my muscles are exhausted of ATPs...and because of that "Berhenti" sign....and run all the way towards God...and finishing the race that we started..all towards the end of the line...which marks...a new beginning!

The Wedding Day

4th day - 10th Jan 2009 (My cousin's Wedding Day)

In the morning..
Woke up at 6am... (*o*)zzZ ...

Get ready for the arrival of the bridegroom (I've been assigned a task xD ---- "Open the car door and welcome the bridegroom --- you can get an angpau le!")

So I did what I was told to...ahaha. Yay got an Angpau --- quite a big amount considering that it's in Sing Dolla! xD

So this is what had happened...in that early morning..

It was a very very early morning, and there were two guards..one dressed so cool..another - still ok lah.

The two guards marched toward the Gate, where the bridge is being led down...*rumbling noises*...

The guards took their position outside the Gate, awaiting the arrival of the Groom.

The morning was a peaceful one, birds chirping and the sky was blue. The silent morning breeze swept through their sleeves..

Suddenly, the silence broke with the sounding of the trumpet---car..

Then there comes the bridegroom...with the groom's men..all dressed in their elegant suits.

The younger guard then walked slowly..and steadily..towards the white chariot..

He opened the door for the groom with a warm welcome..and then he received a warm-red-packet.

The guards then position themselves with the camera in hand..

As they marched towards the Gate..the groom and his men were illuminated with flashes of light..

The five..the groom and his men...marched..towards....the ultimate test!

When they reached the Gate, the groom gave out a battle cry "MORNING MORNING!"

And then..there comes the Gatekeeper...without the Key!...

Through the aperture, the groom peeped and saw the Gatekeeper--his future father in-law..

The groom asked, "Hi Dad, can you open the gate?"

With a cheesy grin on his face, the Gatekeeper replied,

"I'm sorry..I don't have the Key with me you see."

The groom was smiling with despair. He has to do something, before its too late.

Then the Gatekeeper slowly faded back into the shadows..

Then the groom and his men...they heard.....some voices of laughter and giggling that chills deep into their nerves....in the deep shadows beyond the aperture..

Immediately they knew that...something...or somethings...had been awaiting them..

The groom shouted again,

"MORNING!!....?"

Then came a reply....a cold...and nasty..voice..

"Yes...yes...we heard yah.."

A few hooded figures were slowly creeping from the shadows...although their faces were unclear...but the groom can see it....that nasty grin on their faces!---AHH!!

The bride's maid and her accomplices attended to them..

Through that small aperture, one of them said to the groom,

"Well then.....let's start with the cold-hearted cash"...with a nasty grin on her face.

The groom and his men were smiling with despair again...and the groom replied,

"Wah, you want cash first arh?" .......

Then says one of the groom's men..

"Wah..go straight to where it hurts most.."

The groom and his men discussed....and then....the groom took a big-red-packet from his pocket, and slot it through the aperture..

The bride's maid and her accomplices were grinning with excitement..all eager to tear the red-packet and gobble up the cash inside..

The bride's maid then said, "Come I let you all see how 'Ngiau' he is........"

"10...."

"20..."

"40.."

"60...."

"80....!!"

The bride's maid and her accomplices lol'ed..

"It's like only.....20 for each one of us..!!!"

"What do you think we can buy with that!?"

The groom frowned..and gave a sick smile..

"Well, do you want me to spell out what you can buy with that..!?"

One of the groom's men then said,

"Hey let us in lah, at least let us through this Gate okay!?"

Looking at each other, the bride's maid and her accomplices rolled their eyes..

"Fine, let them in loh."

Then the bride's maid and her accomplices vanished out of sight..

The Gate was then opened and the groom shouted "Let's ride!"

And they marched into the Castle..where more dangers await them..

Even knowing that, the groom was determined to save his bride from the hands of the bride's maid and her accomplices.

While they were inside the castle, the groom saw something glittering above where they were...at the top of the highest tower.

The groom saw her bride on the top of the tower, peeping through the window..shouting..

"ohh my groom please come and save me...I'm so booored here..!!"

Immediately the eyes of the groom were ablazed.. He's determined to save his bride!

They quickly marched towards the door...leading to the staircase up to the topmost part of the tower.

While they were approaching the door..suddenly the bride's maid and her accomplices appeared out of thin air with a loud bang...*pooof*

"Wakakakakakakakakakakakaka...................do you think we'd let you off that easy..?"

"Now...you'll have to play with us a game..bwaha-ha-ha-ha-ha! ! ! !"

The groom was in a hurry...as he saw that there's not much time left..!

"Okay..bring it on!...and make it fast la wei."

"I'm sure you'll like this one..wohohohohohoho..."

"You guys have to eat up all of these stuffs...there's SWEET....SOUR....BITTER...HOT..."

The sweet stuff was a condensed milk--terribly sweet--diabetic..

The sour stuff was fresh lemon--freaking sour..

The bitter stuff was "Ku Chao" - bitter leaf/grass--really bitter..

The hot stuff was some big fresh hot-red chilli with extra wasabi fillings inside---simply sensational..

Without delaying further, the groom and his men gobbled up everything given to them....

The groom's face turned pink and pale..while the others were worried of their tummy..

"Wah..not bad ah..can finish all...oke lah kesian you all...let u all pass lor."

The door was opened and it was where the groom and his men had to part their ways..

"It's my bride..I'll go and save her...you guys wait here.."

He rushed off with the bride's brilliantly sparkling shoes..

However he had forgotten about the flowers....

"Oh crap.."

Suddenly he saw a bunch of flowers flying up the staircase and he caught it..

"Hey bro.. you go to war without your gun! XD"

With a thankful smile, he rushed up the staircase and reached the topmost floor of the tower...that's when...he realised that it wasn't over yet...

There was someone standing...or rather guarding the door to the bride's room.

"Oh hi mum, would you let me through?"

"Yeah sure.........." said his future mother in-law with a slight grin.

"But before that, there are some questions I would like to ask you.."

"What do you like about my daughter?"

"I love her for her honesty, her efficiency and...there's alot more."

There was laughter from the shadows.

"Hey..I'm marrying her man."

"Okay okay, very good...next is....What's her weakness??"

"Too kanchiong I guess? xD"

"So you promise to never complain this ever while accepting her weaknesses?"

"Yeah..but we'll discuss about it..."

Then his mother in-law smiled and let the groom in.

"Hey I'm so bored here lah...what took you so long -.-'..."

The groom put on her shoes for her and the bride was gleefully smiling...

The groom then brought her bride back home, escorted by the groom's men and the bride's maid-and-friends.

The scenery changed ----- swirling into space -----

*Blink.blink.*

I was standing there...with the camera aimed.

I looked, and saw that the solemnisation was over and the wedding has ended.

The scenery changed again ----- swirling into space -----

*Blink.blink.*

I was seating there...eating..

Kinda blur...but I can hear cheers and laughters..

The scenery changed yet again ----- swirling into space -----

*Blink.blink..*

I was on my way back to Malaysia...on the bus I guess..

Blur...

But really excited...

Because I'm going back to..

Malaysia .. KL ... Wangsa Maju

My home sweet home! xD
