Friedrichshafen

Waaaaa.... I'm so outdated with the pictures.... Last Sunday, 20.01.2008, we went to Friedrichshafen, a place where the world's first Zepplin is made. Yup. It was indeed a fun journey.

At Konstanz's boat-parking (sorry I forgot English already!). But guess what, this building is more than 200 years old.

Just some normal picture of a statue

Our boat's name - Katamaran

The watch-tower at Friedrichshafen

I like the toilet there... the black mirror... see?

A picture in toilet.. :P

Our tour-guide and the leftover of the engine of the last Zepplin, whose name I forgotten.

Overview of the dock...

Rolling rolling staircase...

Sunset... nice?

A mark on my left arm... why? It looks like a word... :P

More pictures are coming... really so sien. Can only online in FH.

耶稣，我爱您

那本渐渐发黄的纪念册，
依然被遗忘在那就墙脚下，
我对妳那渐渐消失的思念，
却何时又被捡拾回我心里？

那所谓漫长的浪漫；
那所谓温暖的问候；
那所谓激烈的接吻；
那所谓永远的拥抱；
那所谓怀念的接触；
那所谓初次的爱情；

也只不过是空虚一片罢了...

我放弃了，对不起；
我看开了，对不起；
我选择祂；对不起；
我爱上祂；对不起；

谢谢您，让我离开黑暗；
谢谢您，让我再见阳光；
谢谢您，让我感受温暖；
谢谢您，让我了解真爱；

感谢主： 因为您，我的生活不再空虚；
因为您，我的眼泪不再掉落；
因为您，我的双脚不再颓废；
因为您，在我最黑暗的时候见到阳光；
因为您，在我狠狠地摔到时得到稳稳的扶助；

告诉我，有谁能比祂更为大？
告诉我，有谁能比祂更爱我？
告诉我，有谁能比祂更亲切？
告诉我，有谁能牺牲自己的生命来拯救他人？

今天，你是否已问候祂？
今天，你是否有赞美祂？
今天，你是否有恩爱祂？
今天，你是否有想起祂？
今天，你心里是否有祂？
今天，祂是不是你的牧羊？
今天，祂是否是你的引导者？

耶稣，我爱您。

Missie Missing

There are times when things just sounded to be great and fun when we looked back at what we achieved or at least, happened in the past. But there are also times when the sadness and regretness and shameness and anger and maybe, jealousy of something just came back to me. I promised a lot of people to keep strong and steady to face the challenges in life.
“Get over with it soon…”
“promise me to be cheerful and healthy…”
“you got a good brain, use it well, use it that you will always be true to your heart, in everything that you do…”
“路是人走出来的。笑一笑，问题不是问题。”
“… My best partner all these while!!!”

You all know who you are who said these words. You all are the one that keep my strength on and pushing my life forward. I really thank You, oh Lord, for providing me with these wonderful friends. People to cheer me up when I am down, to take my hand and walk me approach you.
Strength, is just what You always have given to me, just when I need it the most. Just when I pray to You. If anyone who wants a testimony of how great our God is, I would gladly raise up my hand and be His testimony. It just feel better when everyday I start my day with a wake-up prayer. Pray to His every morning and continue to let Him take full charge of my daily life. Things will then just go fine with me. It was, it is, and IT WILL!
But still, sometimes troubles, temptations and challenges come to me. Standing in the ground of foreigners, I really stand no chance against all these attacks that come straight at me all together: I need to learn to give up and get over with my past relationship. Everyday seeing her being with his new boyfriend is not a sweet feeling that I need to go through. Seeing those affections and sweetness of theirs make me sometimes really uncomfortable. But what else can I do? I just look away and pray to God, pray that I can stay strong without collapsing to overcome it. After all, no more those wonderful people around me that can provide me power. Well, God is giving me a simple test of my faithfulness I guess. It is not an easy thing to be done; it needs a lot of will and courages not to let the tears inside my eyes to fall out from the frame. Worse comes, sadly. I need to face her when I go to my next place this weekend: Heilbronn. Me and her are the only two Chinese in this batch that will be going there. God’s will. But what is the purpose? Only God knows. And I know He’ll reveal His plan to me, slowly. I just need to be patient, I guess.
Two weeks fly away so quickly, and I’m still alive in Germany. Germany is indeed fun, but I’m starting to miss Malaysia. Whenever I’m lonely, just looking at the sunset will also make me sad. Lot’s of things that I missed… Things that I did not appreciate… Sad.

Missing everyone from Malaysia,

Fahr nach Stuttgart

Again, this is another post that you should look from bottom to the top. Enjoy glancing at these pictures =D Last Sunday we went for a trip to Stuttgart. We went to visit the famous Mercedes-Benz Museum. Wow, right? It costed 4 Euro per student but luckily we need not to pay any as Government is sponsoring us. Laugh out loud.


STUTTGART

Yo Ballack!

No I was kidding, Ballack is not from Stuttgart =(

The model and CLK 200.

The toilet in the Mercedes-Benz Museum... Simply stylish.

The voice device that is used when we're touring the museum

Mercedes-Benz McLaren SLR. Saw it in Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Just that this one is white. Remember?

Another Mercedes. Mind you, this car costed 200k Euro. Convert? 1 Million Malaysian Ringgit

=.=¿

The tags for all the Mercedes-Benz that they ever produced.

Sorry placed wrong place, this is the candle in one of the Restautant in Esslingen.

The other entrance. We didn't reach this building. We went to the other.

Train system in Germany - Complicated, yet punctual.

Als ich ein Schwarzfahrer war...

Yea, what a nice title, don't it?

Yes, it was yet another cold friday, 11th January 2008, when I woke up my bed very blurrly. I stood up, walked to the bathroom to have a warm morning shower. As I was almost there, I realised that I did not bring my soap. So, blurrly I went back to my room to take it. Again, I walked back to bathroom. I went in and bathed and as I was bathing, someone opened my door and I realised that I did not lock my bathroom compartment door. Luckily there was still a layer of semi-transparent separator to avoid my total exposure.

Then I went down to the dining hall for my breakfast. As I was taking my milk to my table, I accidentally poured it out. Not much came out from the glass cup, but it dirtied the floor. Sad.

Then we went up to wear our winter clothing and went to the nearest Tannenhof bus stop. We went up into the lovely no.15 bus. As we were on the way, I dipped my hand into my side pocket and realised that I forgot to stuff in my Fahrkarte, that is, my bus ticket. Sweat ran down from my forehead. S-W-E-A-T. I was a "Schwarzfahrer". A "Schwarzfahrer" is directly translated as black-passenger, meaning a passenger without bus ticket. I was sweat sweat sweat that time. The cold in my heart was much more freezing than the surrounding. IT WAS SO COLD INSIDE ME.

So the bus travelled, if not mistaken, exactly 11 minutes. Mind you, the public services in Deutschland is VERY on-time. You will miss the bus that you wanted to take if you late are even a single oh-my-God minute. Scary? So be punctual then.

And so we reached Bahnhof Wöllmatingen, the bus station that we wanted to take train to Radolfzell. And again I suffered a long train distance being a Schwarzfahrer. How fun, sweat. I reached at Carl-Duisberg Centrum safely. Hey, I prayed along the whole journey, ok?! =.= God answered prayer. You know what, the officer checked for the tickets in the train-compartment behind me. JUST BEHIND ME. My friends were astonished that I went through alive.

That's not all. After school we needed to go back with the train and bus. This time the train journey was even further - not just to Bahnhof Wöllmatingen, but to Haupbahnhof Konstanz. And again I was lucky to went through all these without problems. Eh, tell you what - once you got caught you need to pay double the Fahrkarte Preis, minimum 40 Euro. That is a VERY huge sum. Considering I have only 300 Euro, spending 40 Euro is like, 13.33% of my on-hand Euro vanish in the thin air. Sweat.

Anyway, it was a great experience and I would testify that God answers prayers. Just pray hard and you will know what you pray for will be done.

Blogging in Flight =D

Bye bye Malaysia. Hey guess what, I’m now composing this post when I’m on the
plane. Cool right? Haha. Yea. I’m now almost reach the destination – Rome. We
took a transit flight which around an hour later we had to wait at the Rome
International Airport for roughly 4 hours more before the flight to Frankfurt.
Cool right? But I starting to miss Malaysia. Missing quite a bit. When think
back again of those people that I “left behind” in Malaysia really made me feel
sad. Some of which I never treat them well, some of them I rarely spoke to. Some
of them that I love, some that I cared. Mixture of feelings. This is my first
time travelling to Europe, and it will be my first time being abroad for more
than a month. Pretty nervous, quite. But I know, I have to overcome this
feeling. I need to be strong. And I’ll pray to the Lord my God that He’ll
continueously to provide me with strength and courages throughout the whole
process. Everything is on His will, of course. Not mine.
This post will be
posted at the Rome’s International Airport. The time now is 4.10am, Rome’s time.
Malaysia time would be 11.10am. I’ll reach in Rome at time around 5.03am. Almost
there. Cant wait. I feel excited, and nervous, not to mention a little home
sick. I miss home~

haiz... this was a post when i was in airplane. will update again after i compose new post about Germany.
