Merdeka break

I will be heading to Kampar on Sunday to visit Gua Tempurong and Lata Kinjang for water rafting. It'll be my first holiday this year other than my family trips to the small island opposite Johor. Happy Merdeka to all Malaysians and to all Singaporeans who remember you were apart of us before 46 years ago!

A can of sprite

Before the last two weekends, a can of sprite is nothing but a carbonated drink which I don't fancy drinking. However this can now reminds me of an intellectually challenged kid who out of thirst grabbed one from a stall I was manning at the community services fair held at my church. My initial reaction was to try to grab the can back from him, telling him it costs a dollar and seventy cents. Only to realise a few seconds later that he was not like the other kids. He was trying to open the can and failed after several attempts. I reached out my hand this time not to grab the can but to open it for him, put a straw in and gave it to him. He sipped and walked away as he did so while my mom, who was manning the stall with me paid the drink for him. We don't know why genetic mutation happens but there's one thing I know for sure, he'll be in heaven and that's all that matters.

A pda phone

can come in useful when you're sick in bed and on medical leave for a week. My achievement for the week is Bejeweled 2 high score of 2,285,950 and I bought all the cars in Need For Speed Undercover and upgraded them fully.

I wanted to finish Unlocking the Bible book but failed as I was too glued to the mobile games. Played until my hand was aching. ^-^

I must mean it

We can sing songs but do we really sing the words with all our heart... I am reminded every Sunday I need to mean what I sing to God. I can't simply sing I will sacrifice my life for Him when I doubt I could. I can't sing I love Him with all of my heart but I sing I 'would' want to love Him with all my heart.

This song by CHC is awesome...

The God I know Glorious and holy
The God I know Is faithful and true
The God I know A tower of refuge Hearts are healed Christ revealed
The God I know Light of this city
The God I know Strengthens the weak
The God I know Is strong and mighty As He is, so are we

The question is does He know me? A part of me tells me of course he does. I read His book everyday. I talk to Him. Another part of me fears the day I meet Him. Will He say to me 'Well done, my good and faithful servant'...

Wait for me Lord, and the drive that's getting me there is because You never once hurt me.

The weekday...

...is here and this is how I spent my weekend. Started Friday night off playing DOTA at home after tennis, eating an apple. The next morning I wanted to sleep in but S' phone woke me up and I couldn't go back to sleep. Read Unlocking the Bible a few pages, showered and went for lunch at Cha Cha Original Pan Mee nearby. I can eat at this place everyday, the dry pan mee is just awesome. Then off to children's church for a couple of hours. Picked my parents for dinner and at night I'm playing tennis again. Next morning I overslept for church because my new phone alarm did not ring. After lunch, I'm off to tennis again. So can you tell my new found hobby? Don't think you need it but here's a clue...

The weekend...

...is finally here. But before I know it, it'll be over. I always tell myself to make full use of my saturdays and sundays but I never do. I hope this weekend will be different...
