Stories

When I was in YLDP 2008 (Kuala Kubu Baru time), I had a chat with my pastor. We were talking about trusting God. Then he came up with a good story that I'll remember it for the rest of my life.

"You and your parents went for a holiday. It was time to pack up and go home. But you were left behind! They were already half the journey back to KL! Do you think they will come back to the resort and pick you up?"

"Yesh yesh! Of coarse they will no matter what."

"This is the same kind of trust that you must have on Jesus. He is a Father to you. No matter what happens, just like your dad whom you trust to come back and get you. For sure you know that you can trust God."

This is one story I remind myself in trusting God- no matter what the circumstances are.

There's a big thin spider came crawling into my house! As big as my palm. It crawled so fast right into my PIANO!!! GAH! I couldn't take it. Dad wanted to spray and let it die slowly ; mom wanted to immediately whack the spider flat.

and...
*WHAMS* the spider was flatten immediately after being sprayed.

Mom : You call this big?!!

I think that movie called "EIGHT LEGGED FREAK" is driving me nuts. Thanks to Esther who made me watch those Myvi-sized spider catching men and swallowed them down like nobody's business @.@

I just found my biggest fear : SPIDERS!

Like a parabola curve

Sometimes I feel like blogging.
Other times I don't feel like blogging.
At times I don't know what to blog.

Three weeks of exam is really a torture chamber for my brain. Study till approximately 12am, wakes up again at 5am, continue studying. Maybe that's why I'm so moody. I feel like curling myself up like a ball in the room and get a non stop 12-hour sleep! Or be a skunk (minus the stinky part)- sleep for a whole season. Nicee~

I'm always hungry too. Hypothesis : The more moody/stress, the more intake of food to the stomach.

It's just another half a year more till I'm so done with all the studying system in Malaysia.

I miss my sista. I miss church the way it used to be.

Gah! Looking forward for June!
-Church Family camp
-Taylor's College Life In One Day {CLIOD} (foundation in Science and SAM)
-Zafirah's wedding -my cousin
-Trip to Melaka, sunburn n cendol??
-Bro n daddy's birthdays
-Song recording for Bangkit~!
-I get to dance my fingers all day long on the piano woohoo!

...

and now back to study.

:(

Midnight trip

Around 12am, I couldn't take it anymore! It had been the whole day and night. Dad was asking me go see a doc. Yesh yesh! So, off we drove to a 24-hour clinic down town, midnight. The streets were cold and lifeless, just a few shops closing down with some help from men. I had a horrrrrrible flu.

He was driving a F1 racing car on the straight road. Out of nowhere, a "kancil" police car dashed out too brooooom... He sped, so did we. He parked in front of the clinic, so did we. Monkeys see, monkeys do? I assumed that the policeman got sick. What was I thinking man??

But when we got down the car, it was a thin sick old prisoner breathing his first air from the world. He was creepy. Everyone was trying their best not to stare at him in the clinic. The clinic was jam packed in the wee hours! I was too scared to stare at him, so I just stare at my tissue box. It was more friendlier.

That man was shivering like a vibrating massage chair. Poor guy, but creepy. He was a Chinese when I heard his name got called, but doesn't look like one anymore. If only he knew the gospel, he wouldn't ended up in prison or less likely to be deceived by the devil. Two biggie cops were guarding that prisoner, so I thought it was safe.

I went for a check up. The doctor was kinda coool. So cooooool enough to charge my bill for a friggin RM60! I even got a test using the H1N1 'thermometer'. But it wasn't the virus despite my Rudolph nose and sore throat. Thank God. Daddy had to sacrifice his sleep and will be having a court case the next day just a few more hours. Quite an interesting trip to the clinic =D

Indecisive

It's a holiday for me today! No school, no nerd-ing in school today... Weee~ So... I was in a dilemma first stage : To cook or not to cook. The bread on the table, didn't look much appealing to me. Then, Maggi or Nuggets? Oily-fatty-processed-food are not so my choice (in other words, lazy lah to fry) O.K.! Maggi then. But...

OR

???

Dilemma.

It took me five miserable minutes to choose. Apa lah ini... Then came the ingredients part. Tomatoes? Eggs? Prawns?

Final product :

Breakfast set : Maggi Curry and Ribena~

Healthy but not so healthy breakfast

It's a hoooliday!

=D

This post is specially for you, Derrick! ( if you're reading it) nyeheh =D

Unexpected and more to come

Seventeen is the hardest age to live in... (I think)... for most of the SPM candidates. Besides pulling our hair and get some stiff neck for SPM, we are always in this crossroad,

- What's after SPM????

I've been avoiding a calling from God- a strong positive feeling in me (well at least I guess so) to pursue music after Form 5. But, music is not so glamorous to me as to compare with dentistry. I'm interested in dentistry *flashes teeth* So, arts and science, such a far cry -.-

Yesterday, Mr.Joshua Synder and his team from YWAM (Youth With A Mission) spoke and shared in our morning service and youth. In short, he was sharing about Revelation 14. God is raising a 'Tsunami' in Malaysia, a bunch of Christian youths to do something great and big in Malaysia. Only this chosen youth generation will be part of the wave. Now, many Christian youths are coming together forming prayer groups and troops. We'll just have to wait and see a little longer more :)

We did some activities during youth. One of it was nailing our dreams to the cross. We were told to write down our dreams on a piece of paper cloud, commit it to God and nail it to the cross. I wrote down some common stuffs- a niceee house hehe, a godly husband/bf when I'm 21. The other dream was to use music to touch others, and to form a loyal godly Christian band and tour around the world to do ministry. Hmm, missionary? Finally, I nailed it to the cross, just submit my dreams to Him, and see how God works.

There is a link with my dreams to what I'm about to tell you now =D Later, we were given a large black bag. Inside the bag, there were many objects. We were supposed to randomly pick up an object and pray over it, see what God wants to tell us something. Before I pick up the random item, my heart was pumping like an African Bongo, drumming loudly at me : "I am so gonna' pick up something to do with music". True enough, I picked out something really interesting,

- an antique bell-

Cling-a-Ling...

As I stare at it in curiosity, I saw three portions on the bell. The bell, symbolizes music, can be used to make music.

• The first part was a pretty love-shaped-bronze design metal. I heard God asking me, " Daphne, do you love music and do you love me?" (Sounded like He was asking Peter 'do you love me?' creepy...) I responded, Yea I love music and I love You.


• The next part of the item was a China business-man ship. God used this ship as an illustration to me- " Since you love music and me, you will sail across the world and tour around the world with your gift in music, to do My ministry." Ooookay, sounds cool =D I was in cloud 9!


• The last part on the bell was... Of coarse the bell lar... Hee... Bell symbolizes music. So, it was not a co-incident, it was more than a co-incident! Of all the objects, why did I pick the antique bell instead of some Johnson-Johnson Baby Lotion or a giant UHU gum??

Still asking God for another confirmation. Does that mean that I can't do dentistry anymore :-( If I want to do it, somehow God will still lead me back to His plan. I will just have to take a big round-a-bout. So, lets see how it goes ;)

Of birthdates

• It's been looong since I last blogged. It's the familiar phrase coming out from me again. Coz' I'm busy jam-packed, been blasted with lotsa work, responsibilities, others who chucked their responsibilities to me etc. It has been always hard for me to say no and turn down on people. But I've changed this time. I know what are my priorities and I gotta care for myself and not pleasing others from now on.

• Recently, I've looked into a little girl's life. I've known her for a long period of time, one of my good friend. She is always jolly, creative, cheerful soul, cheerful heart, loves to sing, loves to entertain her friends and loves being around with people she knows- kids her age, teenagers, adults, even grannies and grandees! Almost everyone adores this little girl, except a few of her mates envied her gift of singing and the life she is having. I discovered that she hates birthdays, surprisingly, especially her own birthday. Her friends forgotten her birthday. Upset. Feeling deeply concern for her, I tried to tell her that it's okay. Yet, she cried many times. Praying that she will get over it and will meet new friends along the way, she told me that she didn't want to make any effort like she used to to surprise her friends anymore on their special days.

• Dumbfounded, she's just a kid. I wish I could help her. I tried talking to her as an adult, what you did for your friends will not be rewarded the same to you. We face disappointment too in life. But still, I think I understand her feeling. It was her sensitivity that led her made all her good buddies' special day a special and memorable one. I hope that she will find her way out and know that Jesus remembers her birthday, always and forever. Isn't that the best person to remember our birthday?

Interesting

Mother bought an interesting book for me and Esther..............

Belum kahwin, boyfriends pun tiada @.@

Last Saturday

Yeap, laaaaast Saturday, so loooong ago now only I'm posting about it. Having exams again. But I like! Coz no homework and no tuition classes teehee :)

We bravely brace through a sea of people to I-city (claiming : the most advance technology city), plus on weekends! So picture that! We had to google the place twice and got sesated many times, almost ended up in I-longkang @.@ The road was pretty bad. Some parked their cars way way far from the city and practically used the number 11 bus to get up the small hill. Wait, number 11 bus? (It's our two batang kaki called 11 bus ehehe). Anyway, if you're keen to go, please hurry coz the city is gonna close down soon~ money and electricity is sooo friggin important to their business.


What's I-city?

Nah, some pictures for u!




A city with lighted coiled wires that come in different striking colours and characters!

Christmas trees, peacock, swans, thunder lightning flashes anything u name it!


Derrick bought his light spinner,
very cool!



Derrick and his male swan attraction ahahah!


Just by taking photos, me and my daddy argued like oxen and buffaloes!
Walao, cannot tahan.
"Take bigger!"
"Why so dark?"
"Why so ugly?!"
"TSK! Like this!"
" *sulks* "
"You ah!"

Later, we three grabbed for the "YAHOO I'm here" post @.@

Must post abit hehe @.@

We were attracted by this good-looking fella down here :)

Oh, my Dear! Thou art lovely~

The end.

No! We stopped by for supper at Stargrill.

We had this superb German pork knuckle, Texas barbeque ribs and home made mom's style mushroom soup that came with colourful salad and dressings plus chilled iced lemon tea.

Pictures are unavailable, I don't have my hp cable with me, got cheated by some hp dealer, long story :)

I Wonder

Sometimes when we're too kind, people tend to take for granted of us.

I wonder, O Dear God,
when I'm so angry with it ,
felt like cursing it,
felt that people around me never tried to look into how I felt,
but they harshly told me off,
that I was a pain in their arss.

I wonder, O Dear God,
when I'm so disappointed with myself,
why did I ever bother for being so kind
to it even when it
did not appreciate the kindness,
instead jealousy took control over it,
and it had told me that I was mean,
what the heall?

I wonder, O Dear God,
how many times I had been taken advantage
by mean people
how many times must I put up with them
over and over again
Even if it was like bucket and water to me,
help me Lord,
to love it and encourage it
Even if I had to sacrifice my feeling.

I wonder, O Dear God,
when I'm so angry with it,
when I sat down at Your feet
and tell you how I felt
You work in Your very own ways
and a miracle happened.

I wonder, O Father,
How did You do that?

God You're Capable

I'm not capable

But You are capable

You put a smile on my face

Telling me things will be okay

Coz' You're capable

And I marvel

At Your wonderful works

From the impossible one

You made it possible

You are the God that guards my heart

You are good and will do what is best

Teach me to realize the brevity of life

So that I may grow in wisdom

Be the Lord over my life

God, you hold my world in your hand

You existed before anything else

I know that the Lord is always with me

He's at my right hand,

I'm secure

My heart is glad,

I'm full of hope.

Big Daddy

Everyone everyone went back home yesterday. Mom and dad were super tired. But we still have some guest and relatives checking in and out.

Night came. Daddy took me and Derrick out for Papparich, even though he was very tired and was with a full stomach eating leftovers from lunch as dinner. I still remembered he used to cook and pack Maggimee chicken flavour to me back there in Mentakab Chung Hwa Primary School. My friends marvelled and envied how my daddy pampered me :) Just last week, I cooked MaggiMee before going to school for both of us as breakfast (unhealthy diet, yeah I know) and told him how I treasured his cares and love to me since young. Later he fetched me to school even though it's just a walking distance.

I know his favourite toy too! He craved (and might be still craving teehee...) for a helicopter with a remote control. Should see the looks on his face when he has the remote in his hand. He has one (a few) now, and plays at times and would fly the helicopter so high up and got stuck on the roof. The rest of the story is up to you to imagine :D

He is our standard bar for standard dressing. Very cautious with what we wear to go out. I guess every dad in this whole wide world is the standard bar. At night, I find it extremely hard to sleep in the same room with him during CNY and other holidays in the hotel. Ah, the night orchestral double bass or tuba is simply extremely loud! But, I'll just have to bear with it- though I gotta dread and get up and tell him 'Don't snore please!'.

I guess my dad is an action person instead of a word person- although he is a lawyer. He loves us by doing things, from little things that we didn't even take notice (cleans house, gardening, washes the dishes etc.) to the big things that I cannot imagine. Well big daddy, thank you and I really appreciate the things he did and is doing right now :)

And thank you for drawing this postcard for my Standart 2 assignment- London and Big Ben. You got an A* star for your drawing.

Cny smiles

This year, everyone checked in to the Wee's residence! Teehee :)

5 families had checked in on Saturday. The earliest was auntie Jeslyn (my ah yi) at 9.30am from Singapore. Claire and Dillon (my two favourite cousies) woke up early, excited, started journey 4am to not fight the jam. Then, uncle Fook Kok and Popo in the afternoon from Kuantan and uncle Hagen in the evening from Singapore. Auntie Khadijah (my Ah Bo) from Melaka the next day. Every Heng konco-konco were here this year except for Esther and Zafirah :) The house was super cheerful and kecoh-kecoh. The Wees joined us too. Good thing the floor and walls were still in good condition =D

As usual, our "annual" record was to watch last minute movies! In the afternoon, while waiting for the other half Singaporeans, Ahyi n uncle Mike took all of us to watch ...

1) 72 tenants of prosperity (in Cantonese haha!) - Singapore don't encourage movies in Cantonese

2) Percy Jackson & the lightning thief (English ah? Yala...)

I watched no.2 with uncle Mike n uncle FookKok-we were so just in time, 3 mins late only :)

The next day we watched True Legend in Mandarine (no choice for ah yi in Cantonese, and no other movies for me to watch). Turned out, not bad lah. The Kung Fu stunts were impressive and I mistaken the bad guy was Jay Chou- JC's eyes were smaller hee! Still 17, couldn't watch The Wolfman. So it was either Little Big Soldier pg 13 or True Legend or rot at home doing nothing :)

Esther was in the house too with us during reunion dinner! Through... Msn. We turned on the laptop to give her the CNY mood. Later, some Singapore "true" ghost stories were told by Wesley from NTU Singapore and magic tricks by uncle Daniel (Wee's). Classic! We played this maths scrabble- Rubbikubes. I felt like I'[ve just solved some AddMaths questions -.- There were pregnant silence in between but it was also conversation for us- since we were all extroverts.

Every morning we have Claire and Dillon as alarm for breakfast- Wakeup wakeup wakeup wakeup! *Pulls arm with all their might!* I've gain some weight before CNY, and now the makan kakis are all here. Every gathering, Ahyi and uncle Mike will interrogate the bigger kids- bgr, career choices ETC.. Oh man! Esther, you were in too yeah hee. Later we did some shoppings- bras and FOS, movies Kung Fu Panda, Narnia Prince Caspian and Slumdog Millionair again :)

The house was never sleeping. Wesley and Estee were up whole night to study-exams are in this week. Nescafe everywhere, people everywhere- in halls, in rooms. From laughters to kiddies arguing, everything was so unpredictable with random jokes and farnie things happened. It's not so much of the things we did, but the things that we did together that matter. It's good to have them around! Loves!

Dissection II

Attention!
PG 16

The following content is inappropriate for those under 16 and who vomits after seeing dead bloody meat . Please be aware that the scenes you are about to watch is at your own risk.

Crime Scene : Bio lab

Date&time : 12/2/10 11.15am-12.15pm

Murderers : Students of 5 Cengal 2010

This was my accomplice.

Picture 1 second from the left- our operation chief!

Picture 3- chief commanding troop to carry out mission.

Me and Preveena- discussing about how to murder Mr.Froggie.

Murdering tools- plain white Styrofoams as coffins, long pointy nails, cotton, forceps n CHLOROFORM

Not a bottle, but two!

Be prepared for some horrifying scene ( if and only if you can take it nyahahahha)

Mr.frog : (see the hand) NOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Die you frog! I meant, faint now thou, and we will slice thou openeth.

The pain was too intense to the point the victim went breathless and had to open its mouth hopelessly.

Conclusion :

• Yellowish stuffs? Not fats, but intestines.
• Greenish remnants? Other body parts
• We pulled its tongue out I think by accident
• We emptied out its organ and YET, its heart was still pumping. Cool!
• Our team was very successful, brave and corporative. We didn't cut off its head like the other team. Yuks!
• The headless frog was moving, it was still alive!!
• Some of the frogs were still alive when we "crucified" it on the styrofoams.
• Every 10 seconds, screams could be heard, not the victim but the murderer.
• One frog bit Pn.Norita's hand- that was the first scream
• Overall, a blast!

Dissecting!

Cow, cow, where art now? Come now, to our Bio Lab Town...

Bio class here we come!

Class of 5 Cengal ( beware...not sengal, hehe ) were pweety excited, coz' we're so gona dissect the moo moo's heart! Teehee. I'm telling you, the moo's heart was super huge- almost as big as my room crystal ioniser. Our photographer forgotten to bring along her camera, if u're reading this, don't feel guilty hehe :) Well, anyway, google will tell you its size.

Except, ours was more bloody, cold, hard, g.r.o.s.s.e.r and smelly!

Something like this lah!

But if you were there, then you'll get the true experience of dissecting!

• Firstly, we poked the cow's heart with our fingers. Test...test...testing.
• Next, we detected a few high pitch frequency- euh! yiaks! and yerh!s
• Thirdly, we cut open it into half, and started wondering, "what if it was me?!" thoughts. (or maybe it was just, me! :D)

The whole session was more of like, a cooking class. We potong-ed the heart as if we had already done it before (chey haha). Sliced, sliced, sliced, minced, minced, minced, poked, poked, poked. One of the veins burst and flowed out like the hot magma from the volcano. Fuish, nicee! Smelled like tau euh (soy sauce). The best part was, we were with our bare hands! No protection with gloves. The guys came to check on my group's table, said that we girls were more ferocious. Well... hehe. Loads of thrill, lots of euhs, trying to find the bundle of His and purkinje fibres from the heart (coz it sounded really farnie n special heehee...)

We even created our own paramedic konon group too.

1. Main Surgeon : Dr. Mashitah n Dr. Preveena- excited ones haha!
2. Surgeon : Dr.Sya, Dr.Sara, Dr.YungXin
3. Nurse : RuYun, HuiMin, Mandy, SzeYen
4. Oxygen supply : Dr.Yuha n Dr.Vinotha- standby with minyak cap kapak ahaha...
5. Pharmacist : Me- supplying Dettol hand sanitizer, wet n dry tissue with green tea fragrant.

Efficiency! Excellency!

Coming up next, we're gona cut open the chit chit n krok krok animal. Yeap, white mice and froggies!

Woohoo!

Baby Panda Sneezing

I just so happened to come across this! Mother panda was like, ngap ngap what the... Me n Derrick ROFLMAOOOOOOO!!!!

Extraordinary day

Another ordinary day
As I wake up from my bed
I saw the grey sky again

Sometimes it's black,
Maybe white
But I thank God for my sight
Another day
Just another day

One thing I wish and hope
As I struggle to cope
He saw all my tears that I shed

Silently He comforts me
Walking me out of all the pain
The day, turned to an
extraordinary day

Coz' of Him
The rainbow was shinning bright
No more tears nor the gloomy sky
Coz' of Him
I finally had my gleeful smile
All of this, a tougher soul
This day, today, an extraordinary day.

Litttle Miracles

I find some part of the moments in my life are rather amusing and interesting.

It was drizzling since early morning at 7.26am. At 12.25pm the bell rang and it was time to go home! - It was time to go for CF actually. The rain drizzled again as I walked out to the main gate.

Sya : "Mmmh! Daphne! How la?! Raining!"
Me :" Mmmhp! I know Sya! *sighs* and my house is FURTHER than your house!
*more sighs form us*

Silently, I've found the perfect solution. A solution that hasn't helped and happened only once, but many times! It was called Prayers to Jesus. Simple ones that go : "Lord, please hold the rain until I reached home" Prayers need to be specific too. And God held the rain until I reached home.

One day before any big happening events-usually I'm involve in taking up responsibilities, I'll have a flu attack or headache or migraine or any lousy butterfly feeling in me, I cant sleep! Tossing and turning, maybe a little worried, I desperately need help-a doctor who can help miraculously. Jeremiah 33:3 says Call to me and I will answer you, and will tell you great hidden things that you have not known. Yeap, great things like miracles happening right now!

Just a prayer : Lord, please heal my flu, headache (any discomfort) tonight. I claim it, receive it and believe in your healing power right now. I need you Lord." When I say I believe Him, I must also put it to action. Immediately my blocked nose went off. I slept, having much faith by not taking any medication. The results? Always guaranteed by Him. My discomfort was completely healed the next day! :D Trust me, these are not co-incident.

Wanna' find the best Doctor/ Healer/ Guide/ Life coach/ Deliverer/ Teacher/ Planner etc. your Everything in the whole universe? Find Jesus. His hand phone number is 333, always available. Never try never knew. Remember Jeremiah 33:3! Just a prayer away.

Girl says Frog

Kids are just so innocent =D

Preparation for nx year

2009 was... a year of many changes! To me lah :D I dislike summarising a whole year's happening coz' it's impossible to fit everything in a page, just the important ones :

• My sista went to UK for studies (prepared my heart long time ago)


• Mr.Ghalib transferred to another school, best BM teacher (was, now)


• Jenning (my male best friend / my brain) transferred to CHS, shockingly.


• 3 new science subjects and Additional Maths in f4, struggling.


• Some relationships with people I knew were drawn closer / further

Everyone dislikes changes :) It takes pretty long time to adjust. Since kakak tua saya kat UK belajar hehe, I learnt much this year how to make my own decisions too- what shirt to wear, what shoe to buy, what haircut to cut, what colour to pick, what food to eat, what to do, what not to do bla bla, just like The Road Not Taken. Jie, you spoilt me alot hee nyahahaha :D But, still sometimes I'll ask Derrick for his opinion ;) Poor kid! (Esther, u'll know the feeling hehe)

So next year,
I'm gona be officially a 2010 SPM candidate soon!

My focus should be on God now, how to enjoy and be useful to God in my single hood, counted already, I may get married in 10 years time =D Anyway, I cut my hair today. No need to tie my hair AT ALL to school! =D I look like standard 2 now :) Goodbye long hair~

Can't do this for drama next year :)
