sorry for the irregular postings of late.. but recent circumstances have made it difficult for me to blog or go online regularly...
among others, are that i have to take care of grandfather, i'm sick, i'm not on holiday... haih... all sucky stuff :(... can't wait to get throught this "valley of darkness"...
i'll probably should be able to be back blogging regularly in about two weeks or so... or worse come to worse in january... :)

sick
i'm calling in sick today...i think i slept like almost 12 hours last nite...
at least no fever... but the sore throat really sucks...
i'm thinking i either got it from VBS last week, or from my last hospital visit...
hopefully this sore throat clears up by tomorrow...
i can't stand sore throat.. it makes your throat, uhh... sore...

Good rain
it rained today...
the past few weeks have been quite trying...
first i had my accident, then my dad had his about 3 weeks ago...
last monday my grandfather(father's side) had a fall and fractured the head of his left femur...
it rained when i had my accident... it rained when my dad had his accident and the day after that when we were trying to collect his stuff all over klang...
rain hasn't been good for the past few weeks... until today...
the first two times i visited my grandfather, i couldn't explain it... but it really hurt to see him lying helpless on the bed... all of a sudden i felt really tired, and i really wished i had someone to just call up to tell everything... how difficult it is having to put on a face and pretend like nothing is going wrong... having to be smiling all the time...
today i visited my grandfather... and it rained..
hehe, my grandfather walked today... i'm really happy now :)
and it rained... :>

readers
ok-lah, this may seem wierd to u, but when i first started this blog, i never actually thought of dat problem bcos' i started off with the assumption that nobody would regularly read my blog... except maybe mei n william... so, hehe, this is is actually quite a pleasant surprise to have at least 3 regular readers :)
thanks for reading regularly, although my life isn't exactly fun and interesting... thinking about that, then i'm really wondering what keeps u guys still reading??
but thanks :)

holiday over
hmm... this week is gonna be busy n wierd...
i'll be rushing back n forth from church to IMU because i'll be helping out in the morning n den after dat got classes...
i think God is sort of transitioning me out of church life in Canaan... cos' VBS is something like a "fixture" in my life for the past 10 years... same like christmas n other stuff... but i realize dat when i start Internship n practicing i won't be enjoying the same holidays n all that... so i'll probably won't be able to help out in VBS n enjoy Christmas the same way i used to soon...
i feel like i haven't posted for a very long time aldy... but yet, the last post was last wednesday... wait.. that was 4 days ago... okay, it's long..

holiday
i'm actually on holiday this one whole week for Raya break...
I have to admit... i'm really wasting my time... let's see: I've played computer, gone online, gone cybercafe, watched movie, have lunch(uhh... lunch as in, outside wif frens)... the only thing yet to do is study... haih, just can't get down to doing serious stuff...
on the other hand, yesterday i was in MidV, taking my mum and sister to see the Body Adventure thingy... dat wasn't the main thing for me... after dat we went MPH... i realized i haven't been reading books in quite a while... it's been a REALLY, REALLY long time since i read anything...i can't even find my "Thing's Fall Apart" anymore... hehe, i found a few books dat look interesting... there's this book about Alexander the Great-"Conqueror"... i also scanned through "Dreamer"-about Martin Luther King Jr... it would be really nice to get a book to read, and reread and reread... especially when it's raining :)
oh yeah, i found Chinua Achebe in MPH too... heheh, although i read a lot of times, everytime i reread Thing's Fall Apart i still love it...

Petronas Ads
i like petronas Ads... especially the Hari Raya, CNY n Deepavali ads..they always seem to be about kampung frens finding each other again and umm.. yeah, perpaduan.. dat's the word...
the newest one is where an indian guy get's off to a bad start with his new malay neighbours, but finds out that the husband is really an old friend who used to help him... n den in a show of manliness, they hug each other... :P
uhh, dono y-lah.. i like perpaduan ads... give u a warm feeling inside :)

for the first time
i spent quite some time looking for this song, which i all the time had thought was a jim brickman song, but wasn't...and i have absolutely no idea who's kenny loggins.i feel a bit ungrateful..enjoying ppl's song but dono who sing it :P
For The First Time- Kenny Loggins
Are those your eyes, is that your smile
I've been lookin at you forever
But I never saw you before
Are these your hands holdin' mine
Now I wonder how I could've been so blind
Chorus:
For the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seein' who you are
I can't believe how much I see
When you're lookin back at me
Now I understand what love is.......
Love is.....for the first time.....
Can this be real, can this be true
Am I the person I was this morning
And are you the same you
It's all so strange how can it be
All along this love was right in front of me
(Chorus)
Such a long time ago
I had given up on findin' this emotion....ever again
But you're here with me now
Yes I've found you somehow
And I've never been so sure
And for the first time I am looking in your eyes
For the first time I'm seein' who you are
Can't believe how much I see
When you're lookin back at me
Now I understand what love is...
Love is...for the first time...
nice song :)

incredible!!
yesterday was Deepavali, so this naturally led to HOLIDAY!!
So me, andrew and hai liang went out togeder... it was really umm, "fruitful":P
let's see, leave house at 9.45... reach Vista at 10. hai liang not yet wake up so we had to wait... and wait... and wait... and wait... until about 10.45 den only he finish bathing and washing clothes..huiyoh, too much-lah...
anyway, left for breakfast all in all only at about 12 we really started looking for stuff to do...
well, when guys go out there isn't really dat much to do... so we watched Incredibles... it's really been a long time since i've watched a really, really good cartoon feature... really too long... but at least this year the movies aren't too bad... there was Spidey 2, Troy and now Incredibles.
anyway, its the stuff after which was a really "useful"... played CC until 6.30.. uhh, means about 2 half hours...
so, we gathered 2 lessons from our outing:
1. when guys go out we spend MUCH MUCH less den girls...
2. hehe, it would appear that studying medicine isn't stressful at all...
i may yet live to regret that 2nd statement, but as it stands now... yeah, like dat-lah :P

doctor
i learned something today...
okay, actually i learned alot, but that's not the point...
ok, i'm rambling...
i learned what the title Doctor means... it doesn't mean healer, it doesn't mean helper, doesn't mean physician or anything u normally would associate with doctors and physicians and the health care service...
Doctor means "to teach"... i found this really umm... meaningful, cos' before going to IMU, i was actually considering going into teaching... so i was deliberating between teaching and becoming a doctor... and i actually more or less thought that teaching was what i was meant to do, until of course local U and IMU results came back and i had to do some reconsideration before finally choosing wat to do...
well, strange... but interesting...i hope to see how this turns out 5 years down the road...

occupied
turns out that this week i may not be as relaxed as i thot i would be...
for the uninformed, i'm studying behavioural sciences for 2 weeks, this and the next after Raya week.
Although not much to study, in fact practically nth 2 study... but a lot of practicals... which means most of my afternoons are taken up...hmm... meaning dat VBS week i really won't be able to even set foot in church, n will be coming back "late" most days...
still, it's not all doom and gloom... got holidays coming up at least :)
and... Chelsea are on top in the Premier League; not that i'm a Chelsea fan, but it's nice to have somebody other then Ars and MU on top...
it would be even better if Bolton strung up a 10 match winning streak to go top :P

hmm...
uhh, ok-lah... these past few weeks i haven't been "faithfully" updating my blog... i'm actually quite surprised that got ppl actually read regularly enuff to complain i don't update enuff :)... it's a surprise, but a pleasant surprise... kinda the feeling u get when, uhh...u wake up in the morning and it's raining... or when you're driving down the road and it's raining, and u roll down the window and suddenly sri petaling is transformed into Cameron Highlands... or when you're just about to go to sleep and it starts raining lightly :)... ok-lah, abit much about rain...
i'm playing too much computer again... i admit my sin, but then nth to do-lah... study, oso study finish... ok-lah, of course more can be done, but then i'm not a nerd(contrary to popular opinion)...aiyoh, it's actually a super ironic situation, cos' the only other thing to do is finish Sunday School reading assignments... so my choices are between reading "How to Read the Bible for All it's Worth" and playing Diablo... uhh, Bible or Diablo?
more often den not i'm playing.. :|
i can't say playing computer is evil, but den... haih, for me once something you do starts controlling you instead of the other way round, den its bcoming wrong... but den i'm only at act II :( it's actually a very straight fwd choice.. do what u want-lah... bt den wat i would really want is to play Diablo AND to play it openly AND to study appropriately enuff... so actually it would be good if i could study n control play Diablo a little bit... why am i talking about this... i'm sure nobody wants to hear about the problems i have playing Diablo... i wouldn't be interested either.. ;)
