MERDEKA!

Wow! 51 years of independence. That's something huh? Well, I can't just leave the blog with my previous post, without celebrating an occasion like this. Truly amazing that Malaysia has continued to live in harmony, of course with some glitches, but at the end of it, it is magnificent how we have such freedom and life here in Malaysia. Honestly with the increase of economy, Malaysia is like one of the best places to be. Everywhere else is so not affordable now. Besides, only in Malaysia, food can be gotten 24-7. I think the best thing about Malaysia is the food. Followed by the sensible phone charges and SMS rates. All in all, I am proud to be a Malaysian. With that said, it doesn't mean that I am patriotic, far from that in fact. Anyway, SELAMAT HARI MERDEKA YA'LL!

Facing Your Demons.

Nobody is perfect. That's what they all say, but is it true? Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one with flaws, everyone else just look happy and pretty and like their life is at its best. Why can't I be them, or like them? Why am I stuck with the flaws and demons that I have. If I had one wish, it'll be to change my life. Don't get me wrong, my life ain't all bad, just the bad side of it is probably one of the worst. I guess everyone has a bad side of themselves, it's how one covers it on the outside, I do that often and have been really good at hiding true emotions. So, can one hide their real feelings and bury them till it really gets out of their life? Or will it come back to haunt you? I need to face some problems, some personal demons. It's hard to face something you are so afraid of and weak against. I really want it gone, I just want to live a normal life without going to bed at night confused and crying myself to sleep or feel so vulnerable around people. Now, is everyone still imperfect?

It's A Rainy Day.

Rain. It's refreshing and cooling, beautiful to watch and and nice to feel. The world needs rain and so do we, but every time it rains boredom and lifelessness comes in. We feel tired and depressed, we can't reach our destinations or be happy cause the weather makes the atmosphere gloomy. So, is rain still important? Well it is but it isn't as fun as you think or like it to be. I think the rain is nice, not suitable though when you're planning outdoor games, walking home/to your destination or when you're trying so hard to study. But all in all, we should appreciate the rain every now and then. Without it, we will have a hard time.

Venturing the Unknown.

"Your word is a lamp unto my feet
and a light for my path."
-psalms 119:105-

The future. It is said to be one of the greatest mysteries in the world. No one can truly predict what can happen. Yet everyone is curious and wants to know. I guess it is in our human nature to want to know things, to wonder and predict what will happen. God says that His word is our guide. So why do I still feel afraid of my future? It is really hard to believe in something that isn't visible or without proof. Lately, I've been thinking a lot about my life after SPM. Even though it is still a long way to go, it is still bothering me that my life after high school will be very scary.

I've sort of planned for my 6 months after SPM, hopefully it will come to past as or better than planned. I got chosen for national service, so I guess my first 3 months are occupied, praying hard for the first intake. Later, I would really like to get a job, to have the feel and work experience. That will be the few months after? Well, I don't plan to start studying so early anyway. If everything works out, I'll be occupied for the first 6 months of 2009. Awesome huh?

Coming back to the present, my trials are like in a months time or less. This one week of holiday will have to be spent studying. I am honestly really behind all the lessons and syllabus, therefore the time left is actually insufficient. But hopefully with a lot of hard work and by God's grace, I'll be able to do well or at least catch up. Although times are tough and the future is uncertain, just remember that worrying is never the solution. All you can do is just to live the best you can today. Like someone once told me, "let tomorrow worry itself, focus on the present", well it went something along that line. =)

Beyond the Naked Eye

Have you ever felt that sometimes life is just so complicating. Why can't we just live a life that is easy and stress free? I used to think that my life was at its worst and that it couldn't go downhill anymore. I was dead wrong. After living through the many ups and downs of life, I can only say that ones life is honestly not as bad as you think it is. Reflecting back, I did over react a little and tend to overlook all the great blessings I had. I guess without the challenges I have faced I would never be who I am today and now I can be more appreciating of the things in my life. Well, now for a slightly lighter part. These are a few fun moments shared with friends.

Sometimes life gets the better of you. That's what friends are for.

08.08.08

What an incredible date. It is a great date with incredible happenings. So what's so significant about today?

1. Olympics Open.



It's pretty cool to have an opportunity to experience and watch such a great event that doesn't come by often.

2. CF Annual General Meeting.

It's official. I'm finally done with all my extra curricular activities. In some ways I'm sad, but in most I'm glad that the burden and responsibilities are now over and gone. I'll still be around for CF no doubt. But just the fact and knowledge that I don't have to be depended on is a real joy. I was really glad to be appreciated so well. I guess that after all the stuff, being a vice president and all, it's good that we were all deeply acknowledged. I truly thank God that CF really gave their all today, through the worship and supporting of the new committee. I guess there is a plan and a purpose for everything.
