国道客运--〉台北车站--〉西门--〉公馆

hmmm.. finally after three years, i got to meet up with 忠廷. Meeting up with my highschool mate in a different country - i feel a bit weird. But overally i had a very happy day!!!忠廷 is such a typical chong hwa guy - easily bossed by gals(从不反击 - 很有中华精神).Hence, i bossed him around the whole day ... hmmmm , well i didn't boss him around la he just say yes to what ever i 've said la. Ha ha ... He is a very nice guy that won't feel paiseh or 不耐烦going into any stalls. so ya ... went shopping the whole day..

An incident that happened today-
my phone died in the afternoon( out off battery), i can't contact my aunt to tell her to meet at 校园书坊。 The only solution is to recharge my phone!! But how?? If i'm in welly or kl -- no solution. But in taiwan- when there's a will there's a way!!! I was actually a bit worry in the first place but i do know ppl can charge their phone in public places, but i've never experience it in real life . Told my fren that maybe i should pray about it coz we can't find anywhere to recharge. Right after praying, heard him saying "啊!!!那里!!"at Last we've found it!! Thank you God!!!God u r awesome!!! seven!! I love u!!!Outside 7-11 ----- 手机充电,3个步骤,10分钟!!!seven真是应有尽有!!最后我的手机复活了!!This will only happen in taiwan!!!

All in all i had a fun day !!! We talked a lot a lot today , talk about what we've done in highschool---
1. all then names that we gave teachers: malay teacher- 奶奶, 办主任陈健汉-doraemon, physic teacher-阿杜
2.how naughty we r during April Full - we changed class with 高三理二
3.The naughty things that we did in class- 上课时传纸条,跟隔壁同学也要传!!zha dao!!跟老师顶嘴,考试作弊,抄功课。。。。数也数不尽!!
4.开班会-全班一起boom班长!!超爽!!
5。运动会-最爽的一天,因为不用上课!!在stadium merdeka 混!

中学的回忆真是数也数不尽!!这种回忆跟旧同学一起聊起时是最甘甜的!!

i had a great day not because of how fun taipei is, it's because i enjoyed going out with my highschool mate, it's because i enjoyed talking about highschool life!!

Special thanks to 忠廷 who took me around!!N bought me 章鱼烧,锅贴和甜不辣!!

My first week in Taiwan

hmmm... can't believe i've left that windy city for about a week already.Taiwan is not as cold as i've expected (It's always very cold when i got here- CNY) , Taiwan is still very polluted(getting worse), the amount of motorbike on the road is shocking, the way how ppl drive is shocking. I went on a motorbike ride with my aunt , hmmm, very very ....

I've learnt a lot a lot in a week-
1. i love 7-11 , i reckon the starmart from welly should sell things like i can get from 7-11, they have steamboat here la!!
2. hospital can be turned into shopping mall- why??? the number of buses u can hop on to the hospital is like 10 times more than the buses in wellington where u wanna go to willis st. The foodstalls at the basement of the hospital- haha.... add up the cafes on courtney place x5. i have eaten there everyday for a week already n have different food everytime, shocking aye??
3. I've learnt more of hakka, amazingly i managed to pick up what my mum n her family say, YEAH!!! mum can no longer say secrets in front of me!!!
4. I've learnt that i'm very blessed. looking at the ppl at the hospital, i feel very sad, i've never realize how many ppl in the world r battling for their lives, n there i was always complaining about this n that. never appreciate what i have!!!
5. I've learnt that adults r very complicated!!! i love kids more!!! i enjoy playing with my cousins , pure and innocent kids!!!
6. I've learnt more about myself n my mum.

Things that i've knew before i came
1. i got to watch lots of news- silly pollitic news about chen shui bian and ma ying jiu!!! n more over- ma ying jiu's dog! wu yan- speechless!!
2. i got to watch lots of entertainment shows- hei she hui mei mei hen ben!!! seriously they don't even know how much is cos 60 .... la la la ... i'm speechless!!!
3. i'm going to miss welly- i seriously miss welly!!! i miss my church, my lifegroup, my flatties, my friends!!! i miss the fresh air , the big fluffy white clouds n blue blue sky!!!
4. i'm going to eat a lot!!! haha..... ya well i've eaten - smelly toufu, o a jian, hakka tang yuan, dao fu fa, guo tie, dan bing, fan tuan .....etc

My wish-
1. My family will be able to come to GOD!!!! experience that Jesus Christ is the one n only living God, a God that gives life, a God that gives hope. God that is faithful n full of grace.

My heart-
1. I wanna thank God!! He is truly a faithful God!!! God gave me a chance to go to church !! In fact more than that at the lowest moment in taiwan God sent lots of ppl to pray for me - ppl that i don't even know. I've realized the unity in God's kingdom!!! How God is able to use his children that made themselves available to Him. He knows my deepest need even i didn't say it out He already knew!!! Thank you God, thank you. I don't know what to say but thank you!!!

How i wish

TAG: Five Simple Pleasures in Life

1. enjoying a good book under the warm sun without worrying what to do the next day

2. no exams, no lab reports, endless drama series with the heater beside me

3. not worrying what to cook n able to have good food without me cooking- hmmm i'm thinking about lo mai gai now!!

4. having C n K everyday

5. watching fireworks in the snow

tagging: no one .. who ever wants to be tagged can tag themselves la

Two more to go

hmmm... it's a crazy student life.. i've still got two more exams to go n i'm still here procrastinating. Well, i just don't feel like studying but i know soon or later i have to dig into my notes n textbooks... what's next?? Gene n hereditery expression and Immunology .. i know .. they sounded complicated.. that's why i'm still here typing =p

anyway, just to update a bit of what's up lately. As most of u who read my blog will know that i'm going on a mission trip to Thailand from 27/11 to 21/12. For more information of this mission trip check out phil's blog - http://www.thaiphil.blogspot.com and leave a comment if u love to n phil will be real happy about it :> James(our team leader) said that we will be setting up OUR mission trip blog.. ya .. it's OUR!!! not phil's!!! =p ya well , we will be posting stuff on OUR blog when we r in thailand :>

U never know what God is planning. n His plan is always perfect n it's always best for u. I'll be going back to m'sia on 9/11 then to taiwan on 10/11, grandpa is sick n hospitalised . He is not a christian yet , so ya .. if u r reading this .. can u remember him in your prayer ?? The reason of me going back to taiwan is to spend more time with him n hopefully i have a chance to share to him about God n he will receive Christ as his Lord and Saviour!!! All i can do is to make myself available to let HIM use me :>
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— Eph 2:8 God's salvation is a free gift for each n everyone. I've been saved not by my own good work but by His grace. There is nothing for me to boast about.
Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Eph 5:1-2 i know as i'm back in taiwan or malaysia or even in thailand. Ppl will be watching my life ,i can preach a better sermon with my life than with my lips. therefore i'll constantly remind myself of this verse being an imitator of God that my family will experience God thru me, God is really amazing that He is willing to use me, i'm nothing better than anyone else n yet He is merciful enough to use me, God is so so great.

Love is like

Love is like a snake – it’s blind
Love is like matches – dangerous to play with
Love is like a wild animal – kept it confined
Love is like a gun – it can backfire
Love is like a diamond – it will cost you a lot
Love is like a bush fire – it can spread quickly
Love is like a prison – it takes away your freedom
Love is like a whirlwind – you’re sucked into a storm
Love is like an illusion – very deceptive
Love is like electricity – it has shocking consequences
Love is like flying – you can expect turbulence
Love is like money – you always want more
Love is like kids – very demanding
Love is like a hole – you can get hurt falling in
Love is like water – it can get hot or turn cold
Love is like a rollercoaster – it will throw you around
Love is like a magnet – opposites attract
Love is like a headache – it plays on your mind
Love is like the sun – you can’t always see or feel it
Love is like women – very complicated
Love is like a garden – it’s constant work
Love is like honey – sweet but messy
Love is like air – you can’t live without it
Love is like a footpath – trodden on often
Love is like a mirror – who you are comes out
Love is like a mushroom – it can be poisonous
Love is like a car – if it moves too fast it crashes
Love is like TV – be careful what you believe
Love is like a boat – if you fall out you feel vulnerable
Love is like blood – it’s pumped by the heart

Love is like ...... well .. the above words were not written by me ... sent by someone.. i find some of them quite true .. but i'm not quite sure about the love is like women bit ... =p

无力

感觉真得很累了。虽然这个学期已经到了尾声,可是我为什么没有那种轻松自在的感觉呢?
我的心如同今早的天气一样冰冷, 为什么呢?希望天气越冷越好,那冰冷的狂风应该可以把我吹得清醒一点吧!! 可是我的希望落空了,因为我的心情还是一样很糟糕!!很无奈!!

我需要的是上帝的恩典与怜悯。很多时候我很想告诉神对不起,可是我有口难言。我不想告诉他对不起后又从犯错误,我知道现在的我会一而再,再而三地“重蹈覆辙”。

我无力了,我需要上帝的力量!!

为主来梦想
















相片里 儿时的模样
记录着 年少的时光
曾经在 你我的心中
要登上月亮 要飞越太平洋

多年后 我们都成长
告别了青涩和迷惘
曾经在 你我的心中
编织的梦想 是否已遗忘

人生的理想 是为主发光
拭去了泪水 使我们更坚强
路依然漫长 别失去盼望
痛苦时记得 有主在你身旁

为主来梦想 为主来发光
虽然有挫折 但我不用沮丧
主是我力量 主指引方向
我们的日子有梦想 有灿烂的阳光

I think God really shaped me this year. I've became more positive nowadays. Knowing that every trials n testing in life is a chance for God to shape me :> i kinda like trials n testings after overcoming them. It's really amazing that God can turn bad things good...we will never have an anticlimactic ending if we have faith n believe in God!!

分享

最近发生了一些事儿,更深地领悟了一个道理,原来朋友是需要一起分享快乐与悲伤的。一起走过欢乐的草原与阴暗的幽谷,不顾一切的自持对方,这样的友情才是无价的。
