THE day

Today is THE day for me.
Yea, it was the day I was born, 14.10.1991

I want to thank God that I have lived on this earth for 23 years now..
Through thick and thin, i have survived this far.
Without You Lord, i won't be where I am now.

My story for today is funny yet memorable.
Today is the second day for the Kursus Pergigian that we are required to attend.
The previous day we had teeth check-up and there was this competition on who has the most beautiful teeth.
I wasn't too enthusiastic because my front teeth is not closed properly, I mean there is space in between my front teeth, even my sister said she could insert a 50 cents coin into my mouth through it..

Oh well, i still went for the check-up anyway, because my LAST check-up was when i was in PRIMARY school. Imagine how long it was, almost 10 years!

I was surprised that the nurse praised me, but i had to floss my teeth and take good care of my wisdom tooth, which i thought i did, but actually no (she told me that i didn't brush it properly)

So, i followed their style of brushing teeth, and i got bleeding gum instead. = = ''

Today, they presented all the presents and awards. AND guess what? It's my birthday..

Suddenly, the announcer asked my friend for my full name, and they all started laughing..
I was then secretly informed that i was the "Puteri Gigi".. OMG

Yea, I can't believe it myself because when they re-checked my teeth, i heard "Plak".. Meaning it was dirty. So I didn't give any hope at all.

It's such a wonderful gift and i would never forget this year. I really want to thank God for giving me this special gift. Thank you Lord.. :)

New songs new motivation

Music is my life. I can't live without music. When there's no music, I would naturally hum to myself some random tunes.. :D

So, one of my favourite English bands has come up with a new album!!! Imagine the thrill. I haven't heard from them for quite a while now..

They are Lady Antebellum.. :) Really love and enjoy their songs, I first heard about them from their song "Need you now" and had been crazy about them ever since.

1. Bartender
Great song!! Catchy and really meaningful lyrics.

2. I did with you
Really love the lyric of the song. The best line is "Love is the reason why miracles never die"..

Another one is Carrie Underwood.. :)

1. Something in the water (Amazin grace, how sweet the sound)
- Song with a deep meaning, I always loved her song for being about Christianity and God's love (it's seldom that people sing Christian songs anymore because most of them wants popularity, if you know what I mean), and most of her songs really helped me through some tough times, it motivated me and kept me moving forwards.

Be yourself

There are times you hate yourself.
There are times you wish you weren't born, so there would be no problems at all.
There are times, you feel you can't go on anymore.
That's life. It's a roller-coaster, a wheel of fortune.
Nothing is permanent, we won't be sad forever, nor will we be happy forever.
That's how things work.
So, we must learn to appreciate happy times and catch hold on it when we face difficult times.
That's how you will survive the dark tunnel.

Like what God said,
He never promised life would be easy, but He promised to be by our side the whole time. No matter what. period.


Be yourself, do not change just to satisfy others, because at the end of the day, you will lose what's most important to you, and that is you yourself, your true self. Do not imitate others just so that you would be popular, it is temporary. You would only hurt yourself more.

If they don't like you, leave them. They are not worth your worry. God has a more important mission for you. Never pity yourself. Throw that self-pity away, pray for God's strength and wisdom.
Let the Lord avenge for you. :)

My new favourite: Holly Starr

I was browsing Youtube for new songs. Then I found hers. It was like it was meant to be. I was feeling rather low due to something I'm going through. The first song was "Through my father's eyes" and the second one was "God is".
Her song spoke what I was exactly feeling and I thank God for showing me her songs. It seems He's talking to me through her songs. Now, I am revived and listening to her songs every day. :)
Can't get tired listening to it over and over again.
Her lyrics are so meaningful.
(Through my father's eyes)
So many days I listen to the voice inside my head
I never thought that I'd be someone who could be misled
I wanted the mirror to show me something I could not see
I needed explanations for expectations I could never reach

I know I'm not the only one who's ever cried for help
And Jesus did for me what I could not do myself

He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
(Looking through my Father's eyes)

From what I see it looks like you don't like yourself too much
When I hear you talk it sounds like you just feel like giving up
I know it's hard to see through what this world will tell you
'Cause misconceptions and false reflections will never be the truth

Just know I'm not the only one who's ever cried for help
Jesus loves you in ways that you cannot love yourself

He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes

I can see your freedom coming
You'll be a slave to nothing
When you see through my Father's eyes

He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes

I can see your freedom coming (I can see your freedom coming) 
You'll be a slave to nothing (You'll be a slave to nothing)

I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
(I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes)

God is indeed alive and I praise Him for all He has done in my life. :)

Journey of my Action Research

Finally the time came for me to present my action research report.
After carrying out the research for a few months, I think it was worth it because at the end I could see the fruits from my hard work.
It was hectic for everyone as we finished our report and presented it.
I am so glad that this hurdle is finally over.
It was truly God's presence with me with Mary's prayer that I overcome my fear of speaking in front of the public.
Here's some pictures:-

(Photoshoot before the real thing began.)

(End of our seminar, it was exhausting but thank God everything went smoothly, picture with our head of language department) Phew!!

Trips to the Islands

After being in Sabah for almost 5 years, finally had the chance to visit the small islands beside it. Although there were obstacles, such as the unpredictable weather, but God is good, when we arrived at the island, the rain stopped and we all had a GREAT time.. After we came back to the mainland, the rain poured like what!!
The water was soooo blue and beautiful.. :) I would never forget those moments...
Being able to go there really made me praise God all the more. It has been hectic for a few months now and this trip was a real good getaway for me to refresh my heart mind and soul....

(on the way to Manukan Island, rough ride as there was slight rain)

(Arrived at Manukan Island, it's beauty was enchanting, how wonderful is God's creation)

(At Sapi Island, thank God the weather improved for the better, had a fun time snorkeling and taking pictures) ignore the mismatch of t-shirt and skirt.. = ='' 

(Memorable picture.. Two silly ladies searching for fishes) 

Well, finally my dream of going to the islands is achieved, thanks to good friends. Thank you Lord for everything, the good weather and everything went on smoothly... 

Things I want to do

There's just so many things I want to do in life. But now I'm afraid there won't be enough time.
With so many things happening in the world today, i think time is very limited and we should really appreciate those around us and start to do the things we want to before it's too late.
So far, I've established my relationship with the Lord, though I'm still new, i just know He is there for me..
Now, there's something that i want so badly that i can't sleep at night just thinking about it..
I want to fall in love.. >_<

I've never been really in love before. By saying 'really' I really mean really. 

Getting older starts to make me scared because I realised that I've never really like anyone before. 

It's a sad thing but it's the truth. 

Luckily I always have a comforter, which is Him, and I just have to trust in His timing.

I'm getting nervous and often times I started to overreact and think too much.

For example, sometimes there's this guy i met, so, he's good and so on, but then even though i don't know a thing about him, my mind would go beserk thinking whether he's the one for me or not. In the end, I was the one getting broken-hearted.

First, he doesn't even realise I exist, and second it's 90% that he has someone already....

Oh... my life~~~

I wonder what does it feel like to fall in love... :) I'm really curious...

I also want to travel the world. It's my final semester and if God's willing i would be posted early next year. I just can't wait for my first pay.. It's been my dream to travel the world. But after a few incidents that happened recently, I think I am afraid to use airplanes. But God is greater..
