Rejoice!

..::*+ Small Talk +*::..

This post is specially dedicated to those of you out there, who seeks the answer of common questions. Special thanks to her for asking these questions to me. Very much thanks to Jia Jin for providing me the answers. And most highly thanks I give to my God, for giving me chance to know His words better.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I guess some of you know that my grandfather was robbed and cruely beaten in Kuala Lumpur. For your information, he is still unconscious, lying in Cheras Hospital. Although situation had been better, but thinking of those who you cherish the most lying coma, tears fill your eyes, pain pierces your heart, cry speaks you voice, soul seeks for God's healing. This is a kind of suffer.

In another occasion, she told me: "I don't know why I have to suffer like this. This is not what I'm interested in. I don't really like this field. I wonder how's my life if I'm at other places. Maybe I'll be happy there."

Well, I have the answers for both of these issues. I still remembered, it was exactly a week ago, when I told my mentor in details about how sad I am over my beloved grandfather. I was really sad. It was really a suffering to see people who I love lying motionless on the white bed.

Then he gave me few verses in Bible that I think it most probably will help you too. It was also the topic that we wanted to discuss during our one-to-one session. So the first one is taken from Romans 5:3-5:

Not only so, but we (or "let us") also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

Rejoice in our sufferings, it is written. Remember, God did not ask us to rejoice BECAUSE of our sufferings, but IN it. Why? Because it produces perseverance, then your personality and quality, then a hope, which does not let us down. Sounds abstract? Not really convinced? here's another one, taken from *James 1:2-4*:

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.

Thus believe me, my friends, as well as believe in Him. The sufferings that you are going through now are not just merely something that make mickey out of you. They will grow the determination in you, which will then shape out your quality, to make you mature and complete, not in short of anything. Therefore, remember this: Rejoice always!

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.

Philippians
4:4-5

And you might shout out now: Rejoice! Yes. Rejoice! But then again, how to show that you are rejoicing? How, in the first place, to differentiate between joy and happy? But worry not. Jia Jin gave me the solution for this complicated matter:

Joy:
1. Attitude of gratitude
2. By giving
3. Services
4. Sharing Christ with others

So rejoice always!

The second is about making choices. It's actually also a problem of mine. I hate making decisions. I care and concern about the consequences of each of the options so much, to the extend that I am always drawn back when the crossroad comes. But well, the senior told me not to dwell in the past. I talked to him about how I really feel about the Nice trip...

Yes, indeed I did went to so many places, met wonderful people, observed indescribable sceneries, gained valuable experiences of life. But deep in my heart, I was longing back on that day, when I was about to make the decision. I thought I should go to church instead. Thinking back, the Nice trip although fun, but left me a deep wound - I was then sick and am still sick now. I was thinking, if I chose to go church, I most probably am healthy now. Mixture of ooze and scarlet red blood would not be sneezed out from my nose nowadays. I could have even running around, happily, without all these tiredness weighing on me.

I was quite doubtful about my situation. Same goes to you. You might think stepping into INTEC and studying subjects that you don't like, is a bad choice. You might think that your talent in designing or public speaking or drawing is wasted. You might say getting JPA scholarship is a suffering journey. But be reminded of Romans 5:3-5, my friends. You might suffer now, but you know the perseverance, the character, and the hope ahead of you. So, rejoice in sufferings!

So I tell you my story, after hearing what he told me, I understand, every situation that we go through, it's a way of growing mature. Yes, sometimes we might made a wrong decision. But mourn not over it. Think it like this: It's a lesson for you, so that you will not repeat the same thing again. And you won't do it again. Isn't that trains you to be better? And if you apply it into some other situations, you will collect some valuable time.

Learning process is not easy. It is never meant to be easy. Therefore, be tough, be strong, be faithful, be loyal, and with the power of God, you can excel in your future. Remember 1 Corinthians 10:13:

No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.


It's yet another long post. Sorry, these are my thoughts. And these are specially dedicated to you. You know who you are. Come to think of it, getting JPA scholarship wasn't a bad choice afterall, right? ;P

给妈妈的一个问候

妳是否知道，我现在在哭泣？

妳知不知道，我现在很想妳？

今天，我和妈妈网上聊天。想来想去，原来我真的很少时间真正和她聊天。每一次我都不专心地草草与她谈过话。今天，我放一点心与时间与她聊聊，才发现原来眼泪会情不自禁的落了下来。今天，我发现，原来我只是外表不想家，其实，我真的很想回家看看大家。

我，原来也只不过是那么软弱。
我，原来也蛮想念妈妈的。
我，原来很爱妈妈的。

好久不见了，妈妈。我八月回家了。机票也买了，哥哥、姐姐、弟弟，爸爸，大家，我要回家了。

只是讲了这么短的话，我已经哭了。

MASAF 2008, Nice - Part 2 (End)

..:: *+Small Talk +*::..
As promised... 2nd part of Nice trip. Sorry for having to wait so long for this post because I've fallen asick for the whole week and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. Still can't believe that my nose can generate soooooooo many slimes. Good thing is, I finally have chance to use up some of the tissue papers that I bought 3 months ago. =.=
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So on the Saturday morning, 20080412, we woke up early and had breakfast. Bought this ticket again to travel to the badminton court.

1 Euro one way for 74 minutes. Haha, come my room and see my collections of these tickets.

Pont Michel. It's the end-station of the street-train. The direction that we travelled together.


The flowers. My current wallpaper. Still endulging in my photographic skill~

Another masterpiece of art of mine. Nice?

Some self-taking photos~

And after some dreadful and sleepy ride, we arrived at the "badminton court". Mark my writing technic. Well, there were some unpleasant unexpectations that I would not like to mention. But still, here were some of the pictures that I gathered.

Me in action... The photo was not stabilized before taking. Sigh.

Me in double... Partner with the best player from Ulm.

Not my racket. Roy's. But it helped me, a lot.

My worny pair of shoe. It also helped me a lot. Too bad, it's now stinky and would be replaced soon.

After great and tough matches, I won. Both single and double title, as promised, that I would do my best in the competition to make it a win. Then, Say Sean suddenly suggested to go Monaco. We made a quick thought. "Tomorrow is Sunday and no shop will open. Better go today, although it's already 3pm." This was our thought. So we dumped out badminton stuffs with a senior and went to bus terminal and paid for the €1 ticket to Monaco. The journey actually was not long, but due to traffic jam, walking by foot would take just a little longer than sitting in a bus.

Anyway, after the long ride in the hot bus, we arrived at Monaco. We walked around the coastal area. Then off we went to find the must-see landmark - The Monaco's Casino.

Cool right?

The four of us. From left - The so-called manager Wei Chung, Che Sohairy, Lay Sean, and me.

The fountain in a park in front of the Casino. We didn't go in. Good boys and good girl =)
Picture of me, in Monaco.
At the shipdock. Starting from my right side in the picture, there were lots and lots of big big ships, which owned by super-rich people.
Another photographic capture. I like it too!
Trying out new technic to snap photos.
Ferrari. Nice exhaust sound. Nice engine. Nice visual. Nice in Nice. Nice in price too! :P
Another fountain. Very nice~
The passage to the underground train station ( Should it be called subway?). Notice that the path was super-super long? You still need to get 2 floors above after reaching the end. @.@
Shape of love at the wall of the passage. Love love where are you? :P My God has prepared the most beautiful girl for me.
This was the proof that I went to Monaco. This was the signboard at the platform.

Dinner before going back. €14.

Reached back, and slept due to tiredness. The next day, Sunday morning, we took bus again. But this time to other place - Eze Village. Actually we were tracking down for a famous lavender field. But in the end we turned out to be at the wrong place. T,T

In the bus Wei Chung and me sat opposite of two girls. Opposite of mine was a sweet one. She was just a normal Chinese girl. But due to her cool sunglasses and 嘟嘟嘴 I can't stop myself from looking at her. She's the one that I meant in my previous-previous-previous post. Initially we didn't know she's a Chinese.I ask Wei Chung:"该不该偷拍她?" And we discussed a bit. Then after a while we heard her talking Mandarin to her friend. Sweat ran through our foreheads. We spoke in Malay:"Celaka. Tak tahu mereka orang China. Malunya~"

So after reaching there, we realized that Eze Village was also another tourist attraction. It has a hill. On top of the hill there is a Cactus garden. We climbed to the top. And €5 per head per entry was paid for the entrance fee.

Cactus cactus cactus~
Cactus and me.

I like this cactus' flower. =)
Another photographic attempt.

Yeps yeps. Another.
Yup yup yup! Another. Real rose, I keep, for my real valentine =)

Eze Village was not very fun, as in not having lots of attractions. And the bus service to the place was not frequent. After a long dreadful wait, we hopped into the finally-coming bus. We went to city centre in Nice after arriving for lunch.
My lunch. The fish was not really nice. So was the rice.

So after lunch we went for the prize giving ceremony at the football field. Apparently German team totally owned in the football field.

Then, here came the prize-giving ceremony~

Single Champion - my gold and me.

Double Champion - my gold, my badminton partner and me.

Germany Rocks! Saw the trophy? I contributed 33.33% for the trophy yet I didn't even have chance to lay a hand on it. They said in My_Heilbronners, who want to touch it, go to Hannover for Rentap'08.

This is me, and Lay Sean. Both conquered the badminton arena. Each contributed 33.33% for the trophies. Both didn't touch the trophy at all. Ahaha, she'll be my next MGSS 09 Mix double partner I guess. LoL.

Anyway, these were all the updates about the competition at Nice, France. If you interested in other pictures that I took, please go 88ultimatepichu88's picasaweb. It's my new google mail account that I use solely for storing pictures online so that you all can look around, give comments or download pictures that you think are nice. Thank you.

当我不能使用互联网

DJ DJ DJ DJ~

..::*+ Small Talk +*::..

I just came back from church's Frühlingsparty (spring party). Tired, exhausted. Still, I want to post this entry. As for the 2nd part of the France trip, next post ya! Sorry

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yes, if you want to find hapiness in this post, sorry guys I failed your wish, once again. I'm now actually really disturbed. Not because of you, but myself. I can't stop thinking, why am I so useless?

After all these while since someone commented me as a person who is useless, I tried to be somebody else. I tried to change, wearing glasses is one of it. I tried to learn to make decision, the wise one of course. I've tried so hard, and yet so far, but in the end it doesn't even matter. Because after tonight, despite all the encouragements and the support, I still felt the uselessness of me. I screwed event. The Spring Party. I ruined it. Everything was fine just before I took over. Sigh.

When he asked me to handle it, I said yes.
When he walked out that door, I thought I could do it.
When I started the music, I ruined it.

The spring party supposed to be a hype. When it came to the dancing sessions, everyone were supposed to dance all the way, unstoppable, intoxicatinating, enjoying, jumping, screaming. Yes, thanks to this DJ-to-be, these elements, alright, alright, were seen, but lasted not long. I brought in bassic (is there such word?) and fast tempo songs. Everyone started to dance. The atmosphere was building its way to the peak. 2nd song came in. And the 3rd. I was supposed to enchance the mood. Bring it to the top. Everything were supposed to be fine...

And I placed a song, slightly slower, lesser bass. The atmosphrere fell down, very very fast. Everyone was before dancing and singing, suddenly stopped.

My fault?
My fault.

I brought the wrong song in. She came, requesting fast-beat songs. He came, asking the same request - exactly the same words in German. Another she came, asking for hip-hop-genre songs. Sweat ran through my forehead. I was searching for the songs. I was digging through the whole playlist. He came, passed me some music discs, and I thought this was a great help for me. In the end, I didn't know which song to play, because the name of the songs were not written.

Panic was how I describe myself back then. Pressured. Compressed brain. He offered to help me. Great thanks. Working with two music playlists in 2 different computer was really a pain in the ass/brain/eyes/ear/wherever-part-you-name-it. Further more, dealing things in Winamp was a job that I never do. Why use Winamp instead of Windows Media Player? I'm not blaming. Just that, I'm noob in Winamp. Real noob. I didn't use Winamp anymore since primary six I think. Due to panic, I accidentally removed the playlist that he sorted for me. I called him, sought for help. "Reinforcements have arrived!" I found back the tracks. Dragged into Winamp. Pressed the play button. The player couldn't detect the songs, and skipped to the next, next and next, and next. What's your problem? Ggrrrhhh...

And in total, after Steffen and Tobi tried many times to bring the crowds to the dance floor, I brought down the atmosphrere twice while the one who helped me once.

I hate myself. Why like this? It was supposed to go on peacefully. I felt down, very very down. Tired, and exhausted, but I met no satisfaction. Tears rolling in my eyes. Kept telling myself guys should not drop tears if possible. I couldn't help it. I really felt like crying. Sigh. Really!

After today, I learnt that to be a DJ is not simple. I learnt that I'm really not good. When I thought of music, I play a little guitar. But it's not enough. He can play drum, piano, keyboard, guitar, saxaphone, GRSS band conductor, state representative in sports, studies result extraordinarily excellent, top runner, long jump, crazy footballer... and the list goes on. He is really an outstander in school. But me? What can I see in myself? Yes I saw something, but it's just a word - loser.

Tonight his bed will leave the essence from my eyes. I feel like crying. Lousy I am. I am really weak. Why didn't I pray to Him, to ask help? Only you understand, only you feel sad. What a gooood start to be a DJ. Long way, sigh.

*edited*: helpless hopeless. But still, I love my God. And God, the ever-loving God, still love us deeply and madly. And We love you too.

MASAF 2008, Nice - Part 1

..::*+Small Talk +*::..
Being sick, is nothing fun at all. Can't even concentrate myself to hear what the lecturers said. Time just ticked pass me. I want back my healthy body. What's the point of winning gold medals but in the end destroy my physical body?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On the 10th April 2008 18:00 GMT +1:00, a young guy was seen with a backpack, a pullable handluggage and a badminton bag running around in the midst of the Heilbronn city, place where bullets were made during the era of World War II. This young guy was seen chasing for a bus which was moving in the direction towards Heilbronn Hauptbahnhof (Heilbronn Main Train Station). As soon as he got into the bus, sweat was seen dipping down from his hairs, and his black Australia T-Shirt was halfly soaked the solution which contains Sodium Chloride.

He was so clumsy that he almost forgot to punch his 4-ier Karte, which, if caught, would have to pay €40,00 as punishment. He hopped into the train, had some rest, and took a photo of himself. His name is Vincent Goh.


The 45 minutes just flew passed and I stepped into the familiar Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof (Hbf). I saw none Malaysian. I began to worried. After some dreadful searches, finally, I found Lay Sean, Wei Chung and Che Sohairy. They came from Ulm. Anyway, not soon after that, the others joined in. We all actually were waiting for our bus from Köln. Due to some unforseen circumstances, they came exactly 2 hours late. It was worst than Malaysian time. Wonder where they´re from. After loading those heavy luggages into the bus, we all departed in this double-decker under the moonlight.

The journey was seriously unpleasant. 10 hours sitting in a bus, crossing Switzerland, Italy, and finally came back into France. By the time we reached Nice, I´m already a half-dead-fish. So it was friday afternoon by the time we got there. Driving a big bus inside a crowded city was not easy task at all. After stucking at lots of places, we reached our hotel, Hotel le Berne.

welcome, my brothers and sisters, to the ville de Nice.

Child: Mommy "rela" to carry a teddy bear than me T,T.

It's a "Jaein" answer, combination of "ja (yes)" and "nein (no)". She was indeed carrying a teddy bear, which inside hold another baby. LoL.

We unloaded stuffs from the bus and checked in in the hotel. After taking shower and had some rest, we decided to walk around Nice. First we went to KFC to have our lunch. The Malays were so happy because KFC here was halal.


KFC, that's where I want to be~

Then we went for the beach, since it should be very nice. And yes, it was really such a pleasant and nice scenery! Even the journey to the beach was great!

Nike Swoosh - just do it!

Nice fountain eh?

After some stroll, here we were at the beach!

Nice right? Seriously it was worth for visits... The breeze, the sea water, the saltiness, the cooling air, seriously, I enjoyed it very much. When were the last time I went to beach? Oh yea, at Pahang during Karisma '07.

So we walked around, visiting those souvenior shops, looking for interesting scenes. These were pictures that I took during the stroll in Nice.

Wonder why I took picture of the traffic lights? Look carefully, got mini traffic lights at the lower part of the post. You need not to be giraffe to check whether it's good to go.

A statue. Beside the casino.

The park...
Barisan National lost badly in Malaysia. They decided to make a change - "bertapak" at Nice.

This is the main train station in Nice. What a cool building.

Here came the most important part. I attent the opening ceremony dinner. So, around 1800 GMT +1, I prepared myself up - putting on my when-flying-to-Germany formal shirt. Gave my hair some gel that I didn't ask permission from the owner. Making myself look smart, and went to the venue along with other attendees with the public bus. =.=

This is me, salty after the breeze of salts..

The aeroplane is flying to the east... when will be my turn to be in it and go east? :'(

Just playing with some photography. Learning ok? =.= want to buy those DSL-R thingy when rich enough. Alright alright, this photo was taken in the hotel. Some open air space. After some breathe we went in for the dinner.

A drink. But guess what it is? Sprite? 7up? No, it's just gased mineral water with some carboxylic acid. Don't know which clever people telling the hotel people to provide mineral water.

Starter dish - Mesclun salad from Nice with vegetable flakes, large prawns with parsley and emulsion of citrus fruits and basil.

Main dish - Sea bream with spices, wok of crunchy vegetables with vermicelli.

Appetizer - Royal crunchy chocolate, cacao sirop.

That's all. Yes. Don't laugh. A dinner with 3 dishes. You know why? Because the main event is below.

Saw who this is already or not? He is Malaysia's Education Minister - YB Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein. I stood beside him.

Ho ho ho~ Who is this beautiful lady? She is Datuk Seri's wife =) What an honour :P

This is the nightview of Nice. I like the blue lights~

I reached back hotel around 0030 the next day. Others who did not go for the dinner already asleep. I was really really tired. The next day I still had badminton competition.

Well, the dinner although it's just very little dishes, but it took quite long time because there was an Question and Answering session. The first public QnA session after the general election. Well, of course, most of us who were in foreign countries were really curious about what really happened in Malaysia's General Election. The Government Barisan National (BN) suffered the worst defeat, losing 5 states to the Barisan Alternatif (BA), in which important states, such as Penang, Perak, Selangor and even Wilayah Persekutuan, BN failed to rule. Kuala Lumpur, Capital of Malaysia and also the Federal Government Centre is now under BA. Capital should shift to Sarawak or Johor, maybe?

But anyway, this defeat really brought BN some valuable lessons, at least. Judging from the way Datuk Seri responed the questions asked by students, I couldn't stop thinking that this time, BN would be the BN in 50 years ago. As in BN would learn to be humble and acceptive, learn to fight for the Rakyat and learn to be smarter. From the past until now, BN were like Melacca, ruling and conquering the whole country. Now, without the 2/3, both BN and BA must learn how to tolerate with each other, for the sake of the country. If not, Malaysia will hardly develop. Indeed, to most of the political analyzers, they looked at this as a sight of maturity of the country. The rakyat started to learn to think. Just that in my opinion, they voted BA because they don't want to vote for BN, not because they want BA to be the government.

Although there are still a long way to go, but I guess BN has enough time to check back it's paces, to think more critically and to adapt to the world of ICT. Television is not the only source to brainwash the citizens, therefore, setting limits in the publication of news is not a wise choice. A long way to go, and I don't think the next General Election will be a "clean-sweep" by BN, unless they manage to implant the assurance in the Rakyat's heart.

But funny thing is, why everyone blames others for the lost? Why even inside BN and UMNO cracks exist? There are rumours everywhere. And to me, Pak Lah is too soft in handling things. Some caricature was really funny:

Kami mahukan pemimpin, bukanya pemimpin, with graphics showing all the sleepy looks of Pak Lah.

Anyway, I see this result as a symbol of maturity of Malaysia politics. Rakyat will no longer follow blindly as how it happened in the past, with exceptions in Sabah and Sarawak. Well, BN in Sabah and Sarawak remain near-total unbeaten because of the lack of awareness of the people. Trust me, if things going on like this, the next city fall to DAP is Sibu.

Wow, went into politics too much. Alright, that's all for the Day1 report during the Nice trip. 2nd part coming soon. 3rd part? I don't think I want to make it that long =)
