Today i witnessed the terrifying damage that gossip can do. And i learned a painful lesson.
The story goes like this......A,B and C were having group discussion, they got really bored and started to gossip about people they know. D came after A left, then B,C and D continued the gossiping. But after the discussion, D went to share the gossip with her friends, which is the person that A,B,C and D were gossiping about. Then when the person, E involved in the gossip knew about it, they(E and gang) got really angry.
Cut the long story short, they nearly had a fight and everybody was upset.
don't understand? never mind........but you must remember........DO NOT GOSSIP !
Moral of story : THOU SHALL NOT GOSSIP !!!!

bicycle accident 2
4th August 2008, Monday
Today I nearly got into 2 bicycle accidents, first was on my way to school, a girl was riding her bike without looking in front, coming from the opposite direction, I already slowed down and moved towards the side, but apparently she was looking at her tag or shirt or something… then she banged me slightly on my right pinkie, it was no big deal but I’m going to have a lump on my finger tomorrow, if didn’t slow down or move towards the side, we were going to collide and both of us would be in trouble. Second incident was on my way back from school, a “smart” guy was practicing riding the bike without holding the handles, meaning=no hands, he swayed from left to right to left, well you get the idea…then at one point when he slowed down I gained speed to ‘cut’ him, he couldn’t really control the bike and nearly crashed into me, good thing he braked in time,
Or else I would have another set of injuries. Now I’m sick and wounded, I just want to be left alone. Go away.

“When you planted a kiss in the valley of my shoulder”
4th August 2008, Monday
“When you planted a kiss in the valley of my shoulder”
* text Yasmin Ahmad
“When you planted a kiss in the valley of my shoulder,
my lips were parted, but I was not speaking;
my eyes were closed, but I was never more awake;
I stopped breathing, but I was never more alive.
Today,
somewhere along the face of the earth,
rocks are descending and ships are dying.
Hungry fires roar through the gaping mouths
of concrete dragons.
The plains are grazed by poisoned cattle
and the sky is black and choking with greed.
But tonight,
in a sleepy flat in Klang Valley,
for one brief moment,
every clock and every watch in every room
stopped moving.
I smelled distant jasmine and tuberoses.
My tongue was laced with the aftertaste
of honey and almonds
and long lost hopes.
And in that brief, translucent moment,
the dead and wrinkled skin of my past
fell in a heap at my feet.
For once,
the arrows of time missed me,
the breath of angels embraced me,
when you kissed me
in the valley of my shoulder.”

Hear children worship
3rd August 2008 , Sunday
In Wesley Methodist church of Kampar, I’m serving in the children ministry once again, it’s part of my life and I really enjoy the worship of little children
Matthew 21:14-16
14 Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them.
15 But when the chief priest and the scribes saw the wonderful things that He did, and the children crying out in the temple and saying, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” they were indignant*
16 and said to Him, “Do You hear what these are saying?” And Jesus said to them, “Yes, Have you never read,
‘Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants
You have perfected praise’?”
*indignant = angry because of an unfair situation or about someone’s unfair behavior
Children here sing with all their hearts and it really touched me when I hear them singing to the Lord, it’s so genuine, so pure, so real, no mask, no other intentions. We should learn from the children, seriously. It’s not about fancy music or about getting ourselves emotionally high, it’s just praising the God we love, the God who created us and gave us a place to belong, it so beautiful. No words can describe that kind of simple adoration.
I love it :-)

When I fall
Saturday, 2nd July 2008
I fell down from my bike, it’s not really painful but I enjoy people ‘sayang’ me after the fall J
I was carrying my laptop to my friend’s (turtle) house to watch a movie and to surf the web, because there is Internet access in her house. On my way there I tried to turn up to a sidewalk(in Westlake), which is slightly higher than the road (see pic) normally I would have been able to ride up straight without stopping, but then maybe the laptop was too heavy, I cannot climb the gap and my wheel banged into the sidewalk (or should I say got tangled?), then ‘BAM!’ I fell. I fell on my right cheek and my left leg was also injured, I didn’t realize the seriousness of my fall until my friend told me that my face was bleeding. Then I had bruises on both my legs and shoulder, I felt like someone had just slapped me real hard, it wasn’t excruciating pain but it was still pain lar. Good thing nothing happened to the laptop, or else I would have panicked. I was so touched when my friend (shu-huei a.k.a turtle) came to pick me up and helped me to carry my laptop, then when I went to her house she gave me some dettol to put on my face and on my knee, this made me more grateful to her. Thank God for this good friend, I pray that God will bless her, and one day she will get to know my savior which is the greatest gift of all.
When I fall,
I don’t need a friend to tell me that I’m clumsy,
I need a friend to lift me up and aid my wounds.
It’s not easy to find a friend to trust in; friends that cannot lift you out of a valley but can walk with you through it, friends that comfort you and not laugh at you, friends that don’t leave you because you are not interesting or good enough, friends that encourage, friends that pray for you……
I want to thank God for giving me such good friends in Kampar, but in the end there is no friend better than Jesus, for He changed me from the inside out, he make me able to rejoice in times of suffering because I know I can put my trust in Him, He made me strong when I’m weak, “for My strength is made perfect in your weakness”, only my God can remove my internal scars, only my God can do miraculous wonders, my God wiped away my tears and gave me a sweet to eat :-)

Sore throat + flu + going to have a fever
1st July 2008 , Friday
I’m sick…… *goo dripping out of nose* I have a MAJOR headache. I cannot think straight, I cannot walk straight, I just want to sleep. Good thing today only got 2 lectures, can ponteng J first time I got sick since I came to Kampar, I thought I was never gonna get sick, but now (wakakaka) I’m sick! Ok, my brain is not functioning properly now J I’m a little bored and I was hoping that something different would happen, maybe like GETTING SICK ahahaha. I sound plain weird *evil laugh*
Life is so peaceful here, nice scenery, it’s so pleasant, so hard to get sick, maybe there are less virus in Kampar also J but the weather this week is SO bad, there was no rain for the whole week and we felt like “steamed bao”. It’s that terribly hot sun again, and the “best” part is that we have to cycle around (Time to buy sun block…) all those who wish to get a nice tan should came to Kampar and cycle with me under the o-my-goodness-so-so-so-hot sun. WAAKAKAKAKA.

I don’t belong here
It is the only sentence to describe how I feel now. I feel left out and alone, Jesus, be my comfort and my guide.
Loneliness
I feel so alone in a crowd, I feel so alone in my class, I feel so alone among my ‘friends’. Don’t know why I feel so depressed. There are so many people around, although I’m talking with them, laughing with them, I still feel so lonely. Maybe I’ve too much free time, and I’ve used this free time to become depressed. When I shared this in the cg, the advice I got was to talk to God. It really reminded me to trust God more… (thanks for the advice)
Dear Lord, You are the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end, the holy savior that died on the cross for my sins that I may receive salvation, my heavenly father who accepts me for who I am. I pray that You forgive me for not reading the bible everyday, forgive me for not praying when I’m supposed to, forgive me for sometimes being a bad testimony to my friends, although I try so hard not to, forgive me for delaying the gospel. I pray that You teach me to be a better disciple. I thank You for taking care of “yu zhao a yee”, thank You for making her sufferings lighter, if it is according to Your will, I pray that You remove all the cancerous cells in her body, she still has the burning passion to serve You. Oh Lord, if it’s according to Your will, heal her. She can be a living testimony, to glorify Your name. I thank You for always being there to listen to my cries, I pray that You give me inner peace to conquer all the troubles the world can throw at me, through Your mighty power I can conquer all things. I thank You for placing me in such a friendly church, with so many great people, pray that will be people after Your heart, that they may delight in Your presence, and live up to their fullest potential. Thank You for giving me the strength to continue on, keep running the marathon of my life J. I want to pray for fei miao and dadi, pray that You grant dadi good health, heal all the sickness in his body. I pray for fei miao, pray that her book will be successful, I pray that her ministry will bring You glory.
I also want to pray for Pastor Lily, grant her Your peace that surpasses all understanding, grant her a heart made of gold, grant her strength to carry on (sounds like the prayer for myself tim…) may she place all her burdens at Your feet, learn to depend on You more than anything else in the world, let her faith grow tremendously, be her Jehovah Raah, be her shepherd . I want to pray for Than Foong and Yann Mei, I pray that they will learn to acknowledge You, I pray that You will bless them in their studies, I pray that I’ll be a good testimony to them, teach me to be a salt and light unto my friends. I want to pray for dab, pray that she will grow deeper and deeper in love with You, let her desire to accomplish Your wills. I also want to pray for ama, pray that she focus on You whenever she feels alone, letting go of all the fears in life and to depend on You fully. Pray for my own spiritual life, I want to draw closer to You, I offer my life to You, everything I’ve been through, use it for You glory, Lord I offer my days to You, lifting my praise to You, as a living sacrifice, Lord I offer You my life. I pray for wisdom, I desire to know more about You, know more about Your word, sometimes I think a lot about the purpose of life, and I know everything happens for a purpose and plan, I pray that You make my life purposeful for You in Kampar, here am I, send me. Lord, prepare me to be a sanctuary; pure and holy, tried and true, with thanksgiving, I’ll be a living sanctuary for You. I pray for fresh anointing everyday, and desire for You more and more each day. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
