I'm Bored!

Ok, right now I'm sitting in an office somewhere in the Parliament Building. And I have so much free time that I can blog! =) And what are my colleagues around me doing? Watching a movie, youtube and goodness knows what...Hmmm...just goes to show how rajin we Malaysians are...Over and out!

Whee!

Hi all, right now, I'm kinda bumming (hence the personal message: Bummer's Inc. on my MSN...=)). Actually, what I wanted to say is that I'm really inspired by the pastors and full time workers that I had a meeting with just a while ago. It's really impressive what they are willing to do just to get children to be involved in prayer, etc. At first, I was having doubts whether or not to be in the planning committee for a children conference. But going for one of their meetings today, it really inspired me to press on and not give up on the children.

Yeah, I know sometimes it's hard to press on; especially when you lose sight of the vision. Another thing that inspired me today was when I worship led for Sunday school today, I got the children to just sit down and be still and to listen out for the voice of God. And guess what? A few of them actually heard from God! It's not at all surprising, but it is really inspirational. What God spoke to them may be something simple like "I love you", but it made a difference to the child's life. And when I was praying for them, what God told me was that He has given them each talents that they can use to serve Him. Who are we to underestimate the children if God look so highly upon them? So let us all believe that the children today are more than ready to fight the battle for God.

Random...

Well, now that I've completely finished off my last assignment and group project, I think it's safe to say that I've officially completed my course. Now that I've quite some free time, I have decided to start blogging more regularly again. =) Like the title of the post says, it's random! Actually, what I intended to blog about today was...

The things that I would like to do before I die:

1. Bungee jumping!
2. Visit every state in Malaysia
3. Learn diving
4. Open my own restaurant
5. Get married and have kids

That's all I can think about right now...It's not much, but yeah, that's what I wanna do!

The End of the Road...

I remember the first day in university. I had an 8 o' clock class and we weren't sure where the venue was. I had to wake up at 7 am and get ready to go for the class. So off we went, me and two other friend. But it was really easy to find. And we ended up being really really early for class. Eugene was practically my tour guide around uni. He was bringing me here and there. Even accompanying me to a class or two.

Very soon, he introduced me to his bunch of friends who all became my really close group of friends. We went to class together (or try to as much as we could...some of us were studying different courses), ate together, watched movies together, went for roadtrips together and even played basketball together. Not to mention new-found housemates that cooked and swept the floor and clean the house for me.

Looking back, I think we have all gone quite far in the journey of life. Eventually, we didn't always hung out with each other and we were all busy with our own things. But yet, we do get together once in a while. I really thank God for this bunch of friends because I think my uni life would be really different if not for them. It is the closeness and support that we gave each other that was so sweet and memorable. Friends who cover up for you when you slip, friends who got your back and never betray you.

Yes, uni is a whole lot different from high school. No doubt, we were close to our friends in high school, but nothing beats the closeness that you get in uni. We see each other more than we see our parents save for the holidays. Look at us now, all grown up and ready to step out into the working world. Now, all those times we hung out together are just memories. Here is the end of this chapter of life and the beginning of the next. And to end this post, here's a picture for you to enjoy.

This was us after doing our Moral Project in FRIM

Warrior

He called me warrior. I am to fight the battle for Him. And no matter what happens in my life, He will not let me go. Never. So I am to hold on to His love for me.

Lightning Rod

Last Saturday was a life changing moment in my life. We set off to Ijok in the morning for the second phase of our spiritual mapping project. We were going into spiritual warfare then. As usual before going out on the field, we needed to prepare ourselves for battle. And we did that by first praising and worshiping the Lord. As we were praising God, I responded to God about serving Him in a small town wherever in Malaysia for 7 years. 7 years? Well, it all started when Yoshua, the person who envisioned the Malaysian Youth Prayer Gathering (MYPG) challenged us to give 7 years of our lives to God to serve Him in a small town. I wasn't there when he told the rest of my youth committee. But when I did hear about it, I was thinking to myself, "7 years?? That's a long time. I want to get married and have children!". Haha, it's true. I do wanna get married and have children.

But then I told God on Saturday, if He wants to send me to serve in a small town for 7 years, then I'll give my life to serve Him in a small town for 7 years. And I think all this is so timely, coz I'll be graduating in April next year, and I'm really clueless about what God wants me to do with my life. But after this Saturday, I'm pretty sure about what God wants me to do with my life. Anyway, that wasn't all I wanted to blog about. During our praise and worship session in the Ijok church, I saw a vision of lots of fire on the stage. And there were also angels there. This time, our weapon of defeating the enemy was to praise and worship God at the mouth of UNISEL and Bukit Kuching. Why those 2 places? UNISEL represents the youths of this generation while Bukit Kuching represents the majority race in our country.

As we were singing Hosanna (I See the King of Glory) towards the entrance of UNISEL while pretending to picnic, I suddenly saw a vision of smoke coming out of the entrance of the main gate. The smoke was as though it is hell, and it was parted in the center because there were a line of angels waiting to enter through the gate. I sensed that the angels did not go in because we didn't pray to send them in to UNISEL. Then after sharing this with the spiritual mapping team, Sue Ann also shared what she saw. As we were praising God, she saw this tornado starting out from the center of UNISEL and as we continued worshiping, the tornado grew bigger and bigger until it encompassed the whole campus. She also saw angels on chariots coming down from heaven into the campus. So after sharing both our visions with the team, we prayed to release the angels into UNISEL.

In Bukit Kuching, we stood by the side of a cross road facing Bukit Kuching and started singing. As we sang "Jesus We Enthrone You", I saw the throne of God coming down and settling over Bukit Kuching, then Sue Ann, being so excited came over and asked me what I saw. I told her and she said, "Me too, me too". Wow, we saw the same thing! Then she also shared that she saw lots of angels linking arms all along the side of the road making way for more angels to come.

Then as motorbikes pass by, the angels would hop behind the motorists and follow them home. Same goes for the trucks as well, as the trucks pass by, many angels would just hop into the trucks and follow them. Another girl from KBC also sensed a vision of a rainbow over Bukit Kuching when we finished worshiping. And Wai Yan confirmed the vision when she said that she saw a rainbow over the area. Sue Yin saw a banner with the name Jesus over Bukit Kuching as well and this time, the name Jesus is Emmanuel, which means God with us. I thank God for this experience because it's not something you see everyday. But the time is near, and if God calls us, we should go!

Reminiscence...

Wow, never did I thought that my the first day of my last semester in uni would arrive. But it did. Today's the day. I can't believe that in another 4 months' time I would already have finished my course of 4 years. The 4 years just went by in a flash. And what did I do today? I confusedly did my add drop, not being able to decide whether I should take this elective or that elective. And whether the electives that I choose will be too hard for me to cope. This is probably the last time in my life that I only have to fret about which subjects to choose. After this, life is gonna get much tougher.

Rushing to my first class, I reached about 20 minutes late and there was still no lecturer. Oh well, seeing that it's the first day of the semester, it's only natural that some lecturers don't enter the class. The best part was, we discovered the notice about the lecturer not entering class pasted on the door to another classroom in another building. Huh? After about 3 minutes, we decided to go over to another faculty for a talk by some major power company. And they couldn't get the projector started. So the guy resorted to having speak about his company to us without the visuals. After half an hour, off I went to my next class.

And if it wasn't enough, the next 2 lecturers were both long-winded. Arghh...How am I supposed to get through this sem? But I did get to have dinner in Upten with my friend before our Christmas play practice. So I guess I'm going all local for these few weeks. Till I get over my reminiscing mood that is. After the practice, it was off to my rented house to shower and try to rearrange my timetable. Took me quite awhile. Hehe. But finally I managed to arrange it in such a way that I'm satisfied. Yippee. Then off to our usual mamak session at the place we call "Sambal".

Boy will I miss that place and it's Indomee goreng after I leave. I guess when I leave this place, I will never forget the days of eating in Upten, playing basketball in uni, attending lectures and not to mention the accidents that I went through there. All this little details will remain in my memory forever.
