Yeow Chong brought us around Penang for some delicious muching... and we came across this special dish... Oink- oink porridge... Full body pork, if you haven't ate pork in months and you want to satisfy your yearning for pork, this is what you have to get... Total pork! Pork... pork... pork.... and more pork! ~Oink~ (What u see in the spoon is piggy brain... don't puke yet la... got better food later... :p)

Numb

Currently playing on WMP: Numb - LinkinPark


Currently feeling the same... Numb... Today, didn't have any motivation to start studying for my last paper this coming Wednesday, so I started packing. Currently sitting in front of my computer, blogging, with my Economics book opened at the first page of chapter 3.

This year, is the longest time I've been away from home. Feeling so empty, numb, dun really know what I'm feeling. Just an emptiness in my heart. Wish that I could board a plane tomorrow and go see Charles, then fly back to Kuching and meet mum, dad, drive to Bethany and just sit there and catch up with Chung, Pei Sing, then fly back to KL, meet up with Cheryl a while, then only fly back to Ipoh... haha...

Wish this and that... still gotta do what's real. God, give me the strength and diligence to study...

So far, I've packed up most of my things, all of the things that I'm not planning to bring with me to Penang. I realize that I only have a few things to bring, and apparently I have very few things to bring except for my clothes, shoes and maybe my pail. Lol... I tot that I have a lot of things to bring with me to Penang. I think 0ne of these days, I'll take a drive down to KL to my sister's house to drop off the violin at her place. Haha... How I wish I have a car... Ny ways, a bus might be my only option... haha... really wish that I have more time to move... and get myself settled down in Penang before i report for my internship.

Alrite... better get back to my studying... Hope I can blog more when in Penang... Got more time after work... (i hope) then can go swim, exercise.. bla bla....

Last week here?

This is a post... about me... and my last week here in UTP before I leave for Penang for 8 months. Kinda feel sad right now. Just 20 minutes ago , i went downstairs to bid goodbye to my best friend in uni; Jesse. He just left for home with sweet Melissa, her boyfriend Kelvin, and the "all knowing" William. The last few days, it didn't hit me (this feeling of sadness that I won't see them for the next 1 year), but now, I do feel the pain in my heart. I feels like the time when i left Kuching to come here to study. It's been nearly 3 years since i left Kuching. So many things have happened. SO so so so much, when I look back... Some things I regret, somethings I always will cherish, but all in all, I want to thank God for taking me through safely. That I'm still alive and well. God, thank you for Your grace and mercy over my life. I truly am grateful for all that You have done in my life.

June 4th, I will report for work. Don't know what to expect, don't even know if i'm ready. It's just that all these things have not yet sunk in yet. I feel that I'm really slow sometimes when it comes to these things.. anyway, I still have 1 more paper to go, this coming wednesday, and after that, i can be really really worried about moving to Penang and getting settled there.

I miss home so much. Miss my parents, miss friends back home, miss Bethany... Life is so different without u guys. I hope Penang will be a fresh breath. That there, I will find God again, that there, I will again, breathe in God's breath of life and be renewed in Him.

* no pics to put... aih... will take some in Penang with the pretty gals there... haha =D

Penang, here i come!!

I can't remember when i fall in love with Penang. Its a small island off the coast of Kedah, with the world's craziest, most notorious drivers I've ever seen, but I just love it. I've been there 4 times so far for vacation, and the food there is amazing. Never failing to satisfy my taste buds. Always able to find food that I cannot find anywhere else in Malaysia, except for the lovely Sarawak Laksa and "Mee Kolok".

Next month (June 4) I'm going to report to work at Agilent Technologies Malaysia in Penang Bayan Lepas industrial Zone. Woohoo!! I want to thank all those who prayed for me, even Pastor Ryan, and I believe that my parents were also praying for me. Really praise God that I got this company. God is indeed going to do something great in Malaysia and I believe that I'm going to be a part of it, as long as I do my part. Just so excited when I think of it, being a part of God's huge plan for Malaysia. Don't matter what it is, even a small thing, I'd be glad to be a part of it.

Just want to share with u guys, that God has been speaking into my life, and He has been encouraging me to move forward, to take leaps of faith, to get up and start running, to start going faster maybe because time is running out, but God is not letting me go yet. He will never let me go. No matter how far I run, He will still catch up with me, and bring me back. "Thank u God, for never letting me go, for never forsaking me". Do keep me in prayer, sometimes, i feel lost, I don't know where to go, what to do, and sometimes, i struggle with just picking up my bible and reading it during my quiet time. Still, God is good, for though I have been so tough He has been ever gracious.

I'm having my finals next week. This semester, I feel so lagging behind, with regards to studies, I've never felt so stupid since form 2. I feel that I have left God out of my studies life, and I am struggling now. God brought me in here, I believe that He will take me out successfully too. I just have to trust Him, and do my part. Time flew really quickly, it's like suddenly I wake up to find that my exams are in 1 week. There's no point regretting the things that I have done, I have to move on, pick up from where i left, and do my best.

Missing u guys in Klang, munk, sheri especially, and miss uncle Michael and aunt Madeline's warm home. Miss Cheryl (sorry won't be able to be there 4 ur bday), miss Charles (when r u coming back?), miss Pastor Cheli (hope to see you during Christmas at least). miss all the guys in Bethany (how is everything going?). Do e-mail me, think will be more free to mail ppl cause I work 5 days a week only. (Wahaha.. weekends are for God.. )

K lar, gotta get ready for lunch.. hehe... going out for lunch, and when come back, start studying... hohoho... God bless u all, missing u all heaps (sponsor me ticket go home la... or u can hint hint to my parents for me... hahaha... Buy me ticket to come home for a day or 2.. lol)
