The Best, or not the Best, yet :P
I think it is always good that once a while one is reminded that he is far from being the best.
It has been almost 3 years since I came Germany and I was always proud of myself to be one of the best badminton players among my circle, if not the best :P I’m not saying that other people suck in badminton, but well, they’re not as good as me and I can win any game easily.
But I guess God has a better plan for my personal and spiritual growth. Since this semester I have been going to badminton alone for quite some times. Those who used to go with me are either graduated and moved to other places to study/work, or went back to Malaysia, or long-term injured, or found themselves stuck in school projects and labs. Most of the time I wasn’t informed until 19:36h when I didn’t see either of them in the bus with number 61. This seem-to-be-unfortunate situation forced me to really approach the Germans to play with them.
Being passive as usual, I stood there alone and waited for other people to come and make me feel not left-out play with me. But since early this semester I decided, for now, that I want to stay longer in Germany. So I decided to brave myself up and approach the cold-ice Germans.
The decision was never easy and once a while I got demotivated. There are some Germans who generally dislike us, the so-called Ausländer (foreigners). Maybe it’s some kind of prejudices, just like how we look at the Bangladesh labors back in Malaysia. But God is gracious. He kept my heart firm and pressed on to go to play badminton; to continue to burn my passion. Although I must say sometimes I do really enjoy the pissed-look by the German (let’s be a little particular) to see that I mix among them.
So time flew just like that and today I am who I should have been since 2 years ago. The feeling is just like playing Need For Speed: Most Wanted: I climbed the “ladder”; started by playing with some old uncles and aunties, I was “promoted” to play with the young teenagers (those 17-20), then I played with the second best… And yesterday was the highlight of my badminton “career” in Germany – I was invited to play alongside with the 3 best players of the club. Yea, I asked to play with them, but I didn’t expect the best player actually asked 2 of his mates to join in.
Well, after so long, it’s good to be one of the weakest among the four. I felt like I had to “apologize” for making stupid unforced errors, and not keeping the standard of the game. Well, normally I do like to disrupt the flow and tempo of a game, but not like this. Haha. My partner and I lost by a little points behind, 19-21, 17-21. It made me really realized that I am not the best, yet. Okay I know you might feel like “duhhhhhhh!” or “Ahboh?”, but wait till the time when you’re in that same shoe, like I in mine, you will know how I feel. If you get what I mean. :P
Despite that, it was definitely fun and such a pleasure to play in a high-level game; I never sweat so much before, I never run until my gastrocnemius muscles exhausted; I never feel so frustrated before; I never have my best smashes returned rather “cheaply”; but best of all – I never notice that my best is as today my weakness. My backstrokes and overheads used to be so good that made me a Single-Player. My favorite shot to take used to be sky high base-line lob-shots or services, but I realized it is my weakness now. Well, gotta work out something on it.
“Wir müssen oft zusammenspielen.” It means “we must play together frequently” and that’s what they told me every time. To hear them telling me to play with them so that I can continue to be better is definitely something I am proud of. To see them got frustrated to my “unpredictable” trademark shots is definitely “encouraging”. To see them letting the shots drop to the ground and realize that it is on-the-line and got pissed is definitely such a teaser. Oh I am such a sadist.
It was definitely a good start. There were definitely some points during the process to exert the feeling to give up inside me. And it is definitely the best so-far and better next-times in the future.
My goal? I wish to be the best in the club. :)
Oh, forgot to mention the hot Madame! Nah, she is just someone who likes to find me to play badminton. She was the one who brought me in to play with the teenagers :) And I am really grateful for the hook-up, though I haven’t catch her name yet.
It’s also great to see that they actually want to offer me a ride home after game. Anyone lives in direction Flein? Haha. Hope they’re not plotting something evil, but what I am thinking though!
This post is not meant to show off, but rather collecting pieces of sweetest memories in this cold-cold land. :)
*gratefully* Thank GOD!

Between Collectivistic and Individualistic
Question 1:
In which kind of culture (collectivistic or individualistic) do ppl experience more loneliness?
Question 2:
which culture would there be more crime?
Question 3:
which culture would ppl experience the most happiness?
It's funny to see that the answer for all the three questions is individualistic.
Yes, we both agree they're arguable, but based on what I observed in lives of the people around me, I guess it is true.
It's just that there is one problem: they masked it up very well. They are so defensive, that you can't even have a heart-to-heart talk with those individualists about their private lives. It'll take years and maybe not even success, to step into those people's mind and know what are they thinking.
That is what that makes them tend to do something. Something abnormal, for example crime. That explains also the reason they experience the most happiness. But for that it'll have to be broken down into the characteristics and personalities of the person him-/herself. If they are to have strong drive, they can be most successful and thus to have greater joy. And to achieve something based on yourself - what else can be proud of other than yourself?
That is what that makes these people to suffer loneliness. Because of their I-can-depend-on-myself attitude, they form a barrier against the society, with the thought that they can survive the world without other people. They are the people who don't believe in "gemeinsam sind wir stark" ideology. Or "if we are together nothing is impossible. If we are divided all will fail" by Winston Churchill. Or "一木木,二木林,三木森,单丝不成线,独木不成林". They are the people who think that the people around them are not as good as them, and if they are, they will compete just to win against them. In short, they want to be "the one" in their cloud. These are the people who dominate, or want to dominate the high class in the social hierarchy, which also on the feedback make them to be "unfriendable". Or at least they are the people whom I feel uncomfortable to befriend with.
I'm not saying they're just who they are. I'm not going to cast them aside. It's just that I believe in any relationship, both sides have to do something to make the relationship work. I've seen people struggling hard and managed to get themselves out of the hole. These are the people who I want to be like one: successful, energetic, active, proactive, strong; a man of vision and character, a king; a man of power and strength, a warrior; a man of faith and wisdom, a mentor; and at the same time understanding, empathetic; a man of heart and love, a friend.
What do you think?
p/s: It's dangerous to see how much my mind can ripple from those 3 questions. :P
p/p/s: Thanks Gloria Tsan for the 3 questions.

Just in case you haven’t know me, I don’t like to give up on what I want.
Rubbishes I created I will clean up, just don’t stir something in me.
Neither like the idea of jumping into my way.
Roar. U n U n U.
I.bite.I don’t like it.
Time is short.
And I don’t like it.
Please slow down the time.
It’s GOSSSSHHHH-y December now.
:(
And my milestones only a tid-bit reached.
Focus, focus.

!TGIF!
They just snap me, that:-
1. I get tired quite easily – I would consider my current status as fatigue, as contrary to what I always thought about myself – I’m a healthy little boy, at least I thought I was. Having myself under lot’s of works and appointments and lectures a week, I found myself already burnt out during the midday. But it always good when days with Cell Group and Church Meetings/Services – I feel recharged.
2. I am not a good leader. I think I am a good team player; I can support, but I’m still in lack of skills to lead. Despite I always think that “if only I were given the chance”, but I realized I’m unequipped.
3. Workaholic. Somehow despite the tiredness, I found myself actually enjoying about my works and constantly curious about how things works. I found myself actually rising hand in lecture classes whenever I find something that my neighbors don’t understand as well.
4. Bigger dreams. I realized my dreams had been short-sighted like my eyes and I have not set something really far and wide enough for me. I actually laughed at myself for having all those childish ambitions; dreams that would never come true; false hallucinations that play only in my brain – that are far-fetched, these are the things to be left behind, and focus more on what God has really put around me. I should be grateful.
5. It’s always good to be consistently going for badminton. I am actually looking forward to every Mondays and Fridays. Not because of some chicks around or whatsoever but it is a good chance of me to train my German language than only returning them a smile whenever they talk to me. I am playing with Germans every badminton days since the beginning of this semester and honestly, I’m proud of that.
7. It takes some ice-breaking time to actually take the initiatives to know my fellow German friends. After 3 years of spending time together, I should’ve have better relationships with them by now. Time to catch up.
8. Studies are starting to exert their loads on me. But I don’t want to give up now. I just can’t, not now, not after so far I’ve been. My prayer is that God to provide me strengths that I need each day.
9. Sleeping disorder starts affecting me. Insomnia? I found myself sleeping at 12 midnight and woke up at 3 something for almost the whole week. What is wrong?
10. My quiet time is affected by my sleeping disorder. I shall try use my nocturnal-hours for my quiet time huh?
Then again, T.G.I.F.!

Matthew 4: 1-11
When the world turns around, you’ll understand that none of the earthly things that you are currently hold on to will remain.
When Jesus returns for the second time, you’ll realize that the worldly fame and honor and praises and achievements will be wiped off, just like that.
When the spills out, you’ll realize that your recklessness has its own price to pay.
Then again, what was/am I doing now? It was such a simple question for myself each day as self-check tool. I went after earthy matters. I chased after my own pleasures. I acted when I was supposed to wait. I exploded when I was supposed to be calm. My speech, it doesn’t reflect of who or what I want to be. My thoughts weren’t on You, when all these while I am always in Your thoughts.
I feel ashamed. Despite being merely 2 years plus Christian, I am ashamed of myself. I could recall tons of situations when I fell over to temptations rather than standing in it.
As soon as Jesus got baptized the Spirit led him into the desert to be tempted. After 40 days and 40 nights fasted, the Devil took the chance while he was in hunger to tempt him.
Jesus didn’t turn the stones into bread to feed his hunger. He didn’t obey Devil’s temptation. Despite his weary physically, and although he is able to turn the stones into bread, he answered instead, “it is written, ‘man does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God’”.
The Devil brought him to the highest point of the temple and in Jerusalem, and asked him to jump down, for it is written that God will command angels to concern him, that he will not touch a stone on the ground. Personally, I would just jump down and be saved and boast to the devil, that God will indeed save me. But Jesus didn’t do so. Instead, he answered, “it is also written, ‘do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
Again without giving up, Devil brought him to a very high mountain and showed him the kingdoms of the world and their splendors, offering to him, if only he bow down and worship the Devil. But Jesus didn’t do so. He commanded the Devil to leave him, quoting from the old scripture, saying “worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.”
The Devil left in the end. Looking at it, one might think it is just some normal story-tale. But if you look clearly, those temptations are exactly the weaknesses of us all. The first temptation is to tempt our basic physical needs: food, water, air, sex…
The second temptation is to tempt our faith. Faith is believing in what is unseen. And personally, theoretically it’s easy. But when it comes to real life, when all the things that you hold on to are depending on this faith, not many can really keep this kind of faith. When death lands its claws on you and dragging your life away, are you still able to hold on to this faith?
The third temptation is to tempt our pride, wealth and power. Are we willing to give up all the authorities and power and wealth that we have for this faith in God? Are we willing to humble down and be servant of Christ than be a worldly king that owns whatever there is on the earth? Bear in mind as well all things are created by Him and to Him and for Him. Where am I?
I want to have this kind of faith. I want to live a holy living and not just flowing around. I don’t want to follow the flow of the world, but to live according to His purposes and wills for me. I want to store my rewards in heaven. I want to do things for God. I want to rejoice in the Lord. I will have adequate of living, for my God will provide me not more nor less. I want to stand up in the midst of all these temptations. That is why, some old habits should be given up. Some old thinking must be given up. Some dearly feelings that I hold on to, they must be put down. For my mind is not even an inch as great as His. Teach me Lord, to really be still and know that You are my God. Open my eyes and my heart, to listen to You and to work Your will. Give me the heart to rejoice in You, for You are God alone, in both good times and bad. Teach me, to let go and let You. Break me down to build me up. Let Your Words to be heard by me.
“Surely goodness and love will follow me all days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.”
Psalms 23:6

Desire
..::*+ Small Talk +*::..
Last night I talked to a friend. A close one. I gave advices, and I pray to God, that what I have said would be the best for people involved.
Gambateh, my dear friend.
--
I just came back from my class “Führen vons Team”. We met up with all the freshies, and our assignment for this subject is to guide the freshies to complete their first project in the semester, Konstruktion 1. We seniors were initially divided into 6 groups, and I was quite happy, because I desired to partner with Germans who had done “berufliche Ausbildung”, or job training. At first my desire was granted. My heart jumped with joy.
As I was satisfied with the situation, suddenly the lecturer decided to make another new team, and of 16 seniors I was being unlucky to be chosen as one of the person to be in the new team, partnered with a married German woman, who firstly didn’t do the Ausbildung, secondly quite noisy and thirdly, didn’t go for the briefing on Saturday and lastly, I think I’ll have headache with her. I was like “oh, God!”. My dancing heart skipped and fell. I know it’s my bad to have prejudices against her, but I guess now I have to “live with her style”.
--
Speaking of desire, saw at Vorschau (preview) site at o2online.de and saw HTC Desire HD is listed there. I’m actually quite happy and surprised. Just that recent event has made my financial planning a little deviated from my original plan. But God is good, and Google decided to delay the green light for releasing Desire HD until late October. So, hehe, I guess wait JPA scholar enters then I can extend my current phone contract.
--
*unrelated: why my ear starts bleeding now?*
--
I think, I found out the reason why things that I wish seldom come true. I’m still young compare to other Christians friends that I have, I mean nearly 3 years of faith. But I want to start going into deeper and more mature level of faith. I think at this stage of faith, sayings like “God bless you”, “God loves you” and stuffs aren’t suitable for me anymore. I mean, by God’s grace we all received this Salvation that comes as a gift, and fortunately I have already opened this gift. Second stage after received the gift is to live out a godly life. Not just reading or knowing God’s word, but to live it out. Not just knowing what Jesus have done, but to be like Jesus. Not just knowing to memorize “’for I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘ plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11), but to really understand how Jeremiah felt that time and live out “’Then you will come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,’ declares the LORD, ‘and will bring you back from captivity.” (Jeremiah 29:12-14, bold is mine)
I want to be hunger to know God. I want to understand God’s desire in me, and live my life according to His desire. I want to “seek first His kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things (life, body, food) will be given to me as well” (Matthew 6:33, italics is mine).
I have been complaining like Germans about things around me. Even sometimes I complained about God, when things seem unfair to me. But today God really convey an important message to me:
“Delight yourself in the LORD and He will give you the desires of your heart.”
Psalm 37:4
It’s not about my desire, but the desire given to my heart. I will delight myself in Him.

Surprise Me, God!
..:: My Story ::..
It was Thursday. We had our usual 15:30h coffee break in between my two blocks of Regelungstechnik 2 (Automatic System Control 2) classes. I bought a paper cup of coffee and we chatted. The topic? It is, again, about studies, and about how Jon claimed that he can beat me. He was joking, of course.10 minutes plus passed and we got ourselves up. On our way back to our Labor Digitaltechnik, I suddenly remembered that I have, again, forgotten to take out my Mensakarte (mensa debit card) out from the coffee machine. So I ran back to the caféteria, hoping to find it still left inserted in the coffee machine. But I guess a same good thing seldom happens twice, and nothing was seen in the machine. So I asked the caféteria lady. Not only she said she didn’t see it, I got myself extra lecture from her. Well yea, I mean I think I deserve to be lecture because of the mistake, but I wasn’t really in the mood, so I just let her finish her naggings and asked a group of people there who were getting themselves coffee too.
Something told me that my card was taken by of one of them. Of course, who didn’t want a free mensa card with some debit cash in it? But then again, I thank God somehow that I got myself a reality check, that I shouldn’t jump straight into conclusion that they took. And after asking some of them, I went back to my lecture class, feeling extremely down. I was down, and not even Prof. Wölfmüller’s loud voice could bring me back to focus in the class. It was bad bad day. That’s what I thought.
That night, I really couldn’t get myself to sleep. I even tried to play as many games of Solitaire as possible with my phone to get myself to sleep. And somehow, I slept – but for a while. zzz
I was awake then again around 04:30 am. I knew myself that I couldn’t sleep back again, so might as well just start-my-day. I took my Bible from my bed and continue my to-finish-reading-the-Bible-first-round project. I was reading Philippians. But well, I couldn’t really focus. My mind kept on thinking about the card. Not just about losing a card, but also €37 in it. With the deposit it means around €42 gone just like that. So I prayed.
Father God, what do you want me to learn from this? Why it happened? If everything is in Your hands, why is this?It was a struggle and around 06:15am I turned on my Digsby and found Gloria online. And since I haven’t really thank her yet for making my current candid-but-awesome new Facebook profile picture, I chatted with her. If you know me well enough, I would always tell someone about my problems, and Pat should understand that very well. But anyway, I told Gloria about the story and asked about her opinion of what she thinks God want to convey through the incident.
..:: Her Story ::..
She told me that she had the similar case as well. When she was in New York she accidentally dropped some cash from her pocket and didn’t know where it went. But instead of being like me, complaining sulking whatever, she told herself, thatmaybe someone was praying, maybe someone was hungry, or somone really needed a miracle from God, and found the money on the floor..and she felt better after that. But of course, one should learn from mistake as well. And honestly, that kind of thoughts never come in my mind. God put it in her head.
..:: What I learned ::..
And thus I was given answers of what I asked:(1) it is not necessarily to be a bad day because of losing a mensa card, (2) and I am being selfish to just thinking only about I-lost-a-mensa-card, (3) when I should learn about giving to others, because someone else might needed that money more than I do, (4) and I should learn to think positively about what happened in my life.
..:: Her “Surprise me, God” ::..
After that we updated each other about our current lives. And she talked about how she was inspired by a guy on the airplane about doing daily prayer and prayer for “surprise me, God” and God really gave her lots of surprises. Not necessarily the good ones all the time, but there are also bad surprises but with lots of things to learn from them. She gave a testimony about what happened recently, as in her latest surprise that day. And I felt encouraged...:: My “Surprise me, God” ::..
And time flew quite fast, it’s already 7 something in the morning. And I packed my stuffs and went school, which in the end found out that the class “Ethic” was cancelled. I was praying (ohhh it’s good to start rely on God no matter what :3 ) “God, how then shall I know when the classes would begin, since I missed the class last week?” And at that moment, I saw my Cameroon friend sitting near to the place where I was sitting. I got up and asked him if he is taking the same class. And thank God he is, and he gave me all the needed information about the class...:: Your “Surprise me, God” ::..
God can really surprise people :) And to think of it, chatting with Gloria which led to so much encounters is already a surprise from God Himself, in return of my prayer to hunger for Him more. Now it is your turn. When you wake up in the morning, pray to God to surprise you on that day. And be ready to be surprised by God! And I am soooooooo much blessed to have tons of godly angels around me.God, You’re awesome!
He who is having a joyful heart,
Vincent :3

Co0kie Home Tab v2.0.0 + .sencity v0.5
It's been a while since I last blogged about my phone, HTC Blackstone. Well, she's been good serving me for almost 2 years. Although she might retire from being my first 'wife' when the new Desire HD rolls in (yes I'm planning to get one), so this might be one of the last moments I would have with her. But anyway, today I'm going to show some new stuffs since the last time I blogged about phone.
But first and foremost, for references, this is the whole-package ROM with everything mentioned cooked it:
Senior Moderator NRGZ28’s Energy BLACKSTONE 21681 Sense2.5 Cookie.2.0 sencity Oct.14.7z
Of course, if you prefer his other version of ROMs, follow this link.
Thanks to the developers at xda-developers, we are, at least I am, exposed to so-called "the biggest thing that could happen to Windows Mobile":
1. Co0kie Home Tab v2.0.0 Public Beta
Created by xda senior member Co0kieMonster, athough it's currently still in beta stage, and we are seeing lots of complaints about bugs and errors, but I find it very nice, because to me, it's like combination of both Android and Windows Mobile's user interface (UI). Let the pictures do the talking, shall we?
This is the Main Home of Co0kie Home Tab (CHT). It looks the same like what I posted before because actually I like this alignment. But let’s go further:
1.1. Quick Links
Instead of just having Quick Links to have multiple pages in previous CHT where you swipe your screen left or right to access to more Quick Links pages, now we can actually have “Android” feel: Swiping left or right doesn’t give you only Quick Links, but extra (up to 7) pages so that you can put whatever you want. The feeling is exactly like in Android. And moreover, the Quick Links is resizable, which means you can drag the Quick Links to be real wide or narrow according to your own preference.
The things that to be added to the Quick Links are also massively increased:
1.2 Softkeys
Co0kie introduced Softkeys function to replace the the old tab slider from HTC Sense. Of course, the old tab slider is still accessible, but with the Softkeys enabled, we can assign a wide range choices of stuffs to be added to the Softkeys. We can even adjust the height of the menus in CHT Editor.
By pressing the middle Softkeys (by default key-assign), we can access to our old tab slider.
1.3. Free Link
Free Links are just like normal Quick Links, just that it is one link-button where you can drag to wherever you want. It is useful if you have different alignment of your layout.
1.4 Music Player
Music Player has also changed since Co0kie 1.8.5 but I want to bring it out here because seriously, I think it is awesome. Now there’s no even the need to have the tab slider around, unless you want to access Settings, which is not something that one would often do.
1.5. Widgets
The widgets are now no longer center-aligned like in previous CHT. Now you can drag it to wherever you want.
1.6. others
There are lots of other functions as well but I am not going to make this post too long. Let’s go to the second change:
Developed by xda senior member _LeCiel_, it is the best HTC Sense Mod so far. The word “.sencity” comes from “Sense” and “Simplicity”, which, as the name itself, a HTC Sense Theme which focus on both eye-candy and simplicity. And who says both cannot co-exist? =)
As you can see from the example, .sencity simplify the UI to as simple but nice as possible. The owner has as of today done with his HTC Sense modification and he is planning to turn this into a big project by changing dialer skins, keyboards, xda-shutdown menus and more coming up. Currently this mod is applicable only to WM devices with WVGA screens, but porting-job has already started for other resolutions. The only problem so far is that it doesn’t work on stock ROMs. More about this theme can refer to the original thread.
Well, I can’t agree anymore, this is the biggest thing that happened to Windows Mobile. Signing out.

Ein Blink auf dem neuen Semester
As much as I wished the fun Summer break will never end, but I guess it's better for me to have a reality check. Just settled my this-semester timetable and although it seems quite free, but a lot of works have to be done at the background.
I really thank God that I got this super deal from the professors. We have to do 3 labs (Laborarbeit) and one "Semester Work" (Semesterarbeit). Technically this should be done in 2 semesters. But I got this offer from two professors, that both of them combine their fields and come out with a project for me to do. I think I'm one of the rare person to have this deal, so really, I give thanks to God.
So far I've nearly done with one of the lab projects, so, yea that's one down, at the beginning of this new semester. I checked everything today, and all I can say is, what I'm seeing is just the surface, for I've heard from seniors how hard the subjects can be.
I know I'm going to be real busy, but somehow I'm enjoying it. Despite once a while looking at the grey sky and being emotionally affect by a little, I began to enjoy all these times as I'm approaching to the end of my bachelor studies here, mainly because I'm almost done with books and theories, and now practical steps, which is something I love.
I pray everyday to God, that He will give me the strength that I need to carry through the days. I pray that He will keep me motivated, even when facing hard times like writing reports, debugging and stuffs. I pray that He will keep me within Him, just like how I keep Him within me through daily devotions and quiet time. I pray that He will hear me, and help me whenever I feel weak.
I think things are quite clear for me now: Where I want to go, how I want to go, what I want to hold on to, what I choose to let go let God, what I should keep, how I should guard my heart. But the main problem I have about myself is that I doubt the things I've set my determinations. Maybe that's why I couldn't focus on doing things right. Maybe I need a little wild in heart. Maybe I need to be a little firm and cruel.
I'm doubting again. But yea, keep me in prayers :)

Just The Way You Are - Bruno Mars (Jayesslee Cover)
[Verse1]
Oh her eyes, her eyes
Make the stars look like they're not shining
Her hair, her hair
Falls perfectly without her trying
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
[Verse2]
Yeah I know, I know
When I compliment her
She wont believe me
And its so, its so
Sad to think she don't see what I see
But every time she asks me do I look okay
I say
[Chorus]
When I see your face
There's not a thing that I would change
Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
[Verse3]
Her nails, her nails
I could kiss them all day if she'd let me
Her laugh, her laugh
She hates but I think its so sexy
She's so beautiful
And I tell her every day
[Verse4]
Oh you know, you know, you know
Id never ask you to change
If perfect is what you're searching for
Then just stay the same
So don't even bother asking
If you look okay
You know I say
[Ref]
The way you are
The way you are
Girl you're amazing
Just the way you are
Hehe. Isn't this song nice?

small update!
hehe. More stuffs to learn, hope I won't kill myself with all the busyness.
A small update:
I'm going to München in 1 hour for Oktoberfest and will be back on Sunday night.
Currently waiting for Gloria to finish her trips and send me photos. She shot really like tons of my LOL posing poser photos so it'll be fun to continue my camho-compilation. Then I'll blog about the trip and those who want to come Germany may also refer to that post hehe. And not forgetting the soon-enough Munich trip.
And pray for me, currently not in good health. *cough cough cough* *sneeze sneeze sneeze*
:) adios, pep's!

周杰伦 - 雨下一整晚
周杰伦 - 雨下一整晚
作词:方文山 作曲:周杰伦
街灯下的橱窗 有一种落寞的温暖
吐气在玻璃上 画着你的模样
开着车漫无目的的转弯 不知要去哪个地方
闹区的电视墙 到底有谁在看
白杨木影子被拉长
像我对你的思念走不完
原来我从未习惯 你已不在我身旁
街道的铁门被拉上
只剩转角霓虹灯还在闪
这城市 的小巷 雨下一整晚
你撑把小纸伞 叹姻缘太婉转
雨落下雾茫茫 问天涯在何方
午夜笛 笛声残 偷偷透 透过窗
烛台前 我嘛还在想
小舢舨 划呀划 小纸伞 遮雨也遮月光
白杨木影子被拉长
像我对你的思念走不完
原来我从未习惯 你已不在我身旁
街道的铁门被拉上
只剩转角霓虹灯还在闪
这城市 的小巷 雨下一整晚
---
心情有点被干扰,每一次听见这一首歌。
原来我从未习惯,你已不在我身旁 :'(

U Smile - Justin Bieber
J. BIEBZ - U SMILE 800% SLOWER by Shamantis
What a nice orchestra/symphony aye? I think I can sleep well tonight. Jia Jin, maybe I need not the Android apps to sleep. All I need is just playing this song.
*cough cough* actually I'm being sarcastic. Choked yourself yet? :)
Haha okay okay, I know there're still Bieber's fans out there, at least this one here. Haha. So here's the original song for you. Enjoy, though I'm an anti-Bieber.
peace out. Don't bash this post please.

Feldberg!
..::*+ Small Talk +*::..
Sometimes it IS provocative, but one doesn’t realize that. I wonder what’s the motive of that alone. Not that you won a lottery or something.
But apart from that, this week has been quite tiring, especially fell sick on days which I wasn’t supposed to. Hrmm.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So on the Friday evening of last last week, 20.08.2010, we had our stuffs packed and went to Karlsruhe-Durlach to stay at Jia Jin’s place. We had good, snoring sleep, which everyone complained about. And the next day early morning we headed to Feldberg. Imagine we had to wake up around 5am just to get prepared up… sweat.
Okay you might ask why Feldberg? It is because Feldberg is the highest point of the Black Forest.
But anyway, we arrived at our destination around 9am if not mistaken. Hmmm, what was so nice about Feldberg? it has the geographically highest train station in Germany. 967 meters above sea level wow.
See how nice the sky was! How I wish that nowadays we still can have this kind of weather. But really, praise the Lord for such a wonderful weather!
So we started our hiking journey. We talked, we snapped photos, and we chatted. The scenery was very very awesome and I couldn’t stop but to admire how great our Creator is. At first we walked thru some forest area. Quite dark and my camera didn’t really able to capture enough lights. But the pictures are still awesome!
Well well, it’s even better if you come to see it yourself! Anyway, after a while walking, we came to the Feldsee. It’s a lake, but with nice scenery!
These 5 pictures… ummmm, you stitch it yourself, then you’ll get a nice view of it =) Well, it’s not just a lake, but also a small river flowing AWAY from the lake. So the question is, how the lake gets its water?
After a short distance walking we came to ermmm… a big open area and some weird carvings and some huts.
We had our rest at a restaurant-hut nearby.
wise man with magazine and a slice of cake and a cup of cappuccino. what else more you can get?
what is this…? cow with a pig head?
As you can see, from open area we went into forest again, across rivers and waterfalls….
king of the world, I supposed. Haha.
and we came out from the forest!
we had our lunch before climbing the hill. But hey, the käsespätzle was AWESOME, apparently they use Bergkäse, a kind of cheese from mountain? lol.
And we saw our destination, far away.
Finally, at local time 1400h something, we reached the peak of Feldberg!
The thing is, according to James’s shadow, the sun is shining from the ‘süd’ direction, which means south. So who says sunset is at west? =S
If you go up the tower, you’ll then be officially at the highest point of Feldberg, but who cares? lol.
mooo, but poor cows cannot touch the electrified wire. Jonathon’s camera touched the wire. Maybe it’d improve the potential of the camera? haha.
This is not German Black Forest Cake, schwarzwäldischer Kirschtorte.
After that we went back to our starting point, by that time we were a little tired.
We got ourselves some souvenirs, which I couldn’t find my spoon, again. Anyway, we waited for the bus and headed to Titisee.
I want to play water! Haha, but anyway, we took the boat pedaling thingy and went for 30mins ride. I didn’t capture anything using my Sony, ‘cuz I used James’s better camera.
But anyway, after that we had ice-cream and went back.
The train station is sorta quite high place as well.
*m. ü. M. means meter über das Meer, meter over sea level
Tata! Hope you enjoyed this. It has been a while since my last photo-update right? I’ll try to come out more pictures okay? hehe.
