My Life In HIS Book: August 2008

The word "sorry"

Posted by James | | Saturday, August 30, 2008 at 11:59:00 PM

SORRY speaks nothing, but CHANGE speaks a thousand word.

I know I've taken things for granted. Sometimes, I even take God's mercy, love and grace for granted.

I'm sorry for doing that. I seriously need to change and I am changing. Change for the better and not turning my back against God.

Thank God that HE never gives up on me. It's by mercy and grace, I'm still blogging today. And thank God I'm improving. Never ever turn your back against God cause the consequences is unbearable.

Pray for me, I'm sorry.

Of Biology Botanical Field Trip and Work

Posted by James | | Wednesday, August 27, 2008 at 8:11:00 PM

Today, me and my classmates went to Penang Botanical Garden for Biology field trip and work. My Bio lecturer is a scientist and she works there in the botanical garden. This trip really opened up my eyes. It's more than just a boring normal park for exercise. Serious!

We all meet there at 8 in the morning. How early! LoL. Then we went for jungle tracking. It's seriously nice and fun. LoL. I'm gonna show you a few pictures only to save time. For more pictures, please do visit my facebook.

The pond with the fish

Centipede, nice right?
God's creation is amazing!

Here comes the spider man!

Amazing leaf!

More trees

Monkeys from botanical garden! (Thani, Brayan and Shin Juey)

This is really cool, A tree growing upside down. LoL

Some photographic skills attempt. Edmund, I know you're so proud of me. =p

Then after that, we went for fishing! Hahax. We got down to the river of the garden and start catching fishes. LoL. I caught only two. LoL.

We're in the stream

Some of the fishes that we caught. There were fish, prawns, water spider, dragonfly and many more. There was also water snake but Ms Lai doesn't allow us to catch. How sad! LoL.

Then it's game time and we have to find out the trees that our partner brought us to hug. LoL. We call it tree's appreciation. LoL.

Look at them! Shin Juey and Yew Kheng. LOL.

Deepak and Kelvin

Monkeys

Later it's the part that I don't like. PRESENTATION. We were given 25 minutes to discuss with our own group and have to come up with a presentation. SWT. LoL.

Thani, our leader.

Caterpillar, i'm so in love with it.

The cave men! LoL

Group photo (Click to Enlarge)

Another group photo

We had a fun trip in overall. Learned a lot of things as well. For more pictures, do visit my facebook

After that, I headed back to college to library to work. Heard that Ms Jenny was like mumbling again. LoL. Went home, slept and then here I am, blogging. Helped mum just now but apparently misunderstood by people. Never mind then, as long I'm speaking the truth.

Take care.

Slacking

Posted by James | | Monday, August 25, 2008 at 8:11:00 PM

Haih. I just realised that Trials is like 20 days from today. How sad and I didn't even start revising a single subject or even single page of my book! I'm seriously slacking.

Oh well, need to plan and buck up now. I cannot afford to not do well this time. Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Yesterday's Olympic was okay, football was okay too nia. The way Chelsea play is not that convincing (WHICH IS GOOD!) Hahax.

Today I did my ester experiment, got a pineapple fruity smell. LOL. Some even got DURIAN. SWT! It's supposed to be pineapple. LoL. Then I saw teacher Alan in my college. LoL.

Thank God for tmrw's holiday and the following Monday's holiday due to Merdeka so that I can study.

Till then... Bye!
I'm watching ManU match tonite!

Special Sunday

Posted by James | | Sunday, August 24, 2008 at 6:07:00 PM

To my surprise, today's church sunday service speaker is Ps Shyju Matthew. LoL. I was like so glad to see him. He plays facebook and all and he is close to us.

Today's service was a service that I will remember for the rest of my life because it turns out to be not like a service today as it has no sermons and all. SERIOUS! LoL. After praise and worship and announcement and offering, Ps Shyju came up and start an opening prayer. At first he has sermons for us. And then as he prays, Holy Spirit stirs up and we started to worship and all. Then, presence of the Lord was seriously strong and there and then, He started to phrophecies, pointing out some people in the congregation that God wants him to pray for them and all. The anointing of God was strong that the whole congregation was like praying the whole time. A lot of youths were anointed when Pastor prayed for them, they fell and then pastor ask us to pick them up and prayed for them again to get double anointing and they fell once again. For the first time, I see that on my own eyes. Even when both senior pastors, Ps Andrew and Michelle, they both fell when Ps Shyju pray for them. The anointing was seriously strong. Then he phropheicise on Pamelyn Teh (she's Ps Andrew daughter and Jeremy Teh's cousin) that God's calling is upon her and soon she will be going to Bible schl already.

We spent whole service praying and worshiping the Lord. Thats what we did nia! What a special sunday! LoL.

Den later on went to Queensbay with family for lunch and watched Olympic Basketball final (USA vs Spain) and USA won. Now, I'm blogging waiting to watch the closing ceremony. LoL. Bye. Take care!

Why?

Posted by James | | Saturday, August 23, 2008 at 10:09:00 AM

Time flies huh. It's likw so fast and my break is gonna end already. I wish I have one month! LoL. Anyway, today is Ignite, so it's gonna be awesome.

Updates for my break. So far so good. Monday I went down to Taiping, Tuesday stayed at home, Wednesday, went out with Edward they all and then had steamboat with melvin and ben's family, Thursday, I went to National Worship Concert conducted by Paradise Community Church in PCC and then Friday gave Aaron tuition. Thats all.

PS: I've noticed that this break supposed to be meant for me to study, in the end, it just makes me slack even more. zZz

For the National Worship Concert, it's more like a service. The message was great and a lot of people attended too.

I guess that's all. Take care, God bless you.

Oh ya, more pic for Taiping trip, please visit my facebook, click here.

Happy and Sad

Posted by James | | Sunday, August 17, 2008 at 8:11:00 PM

Today I'm happy and sad. LOL. But more to happy! LoL. But before that, Today is a busy day for me. After church, me and parents went to Queensbay. After that, we went to Metrojaya in Island Plaza. Later, we went to Giant and later to the market in the Komtar there. SWT rite? LoL. Today my parents are kinda plan-less what they want to do. LoL

Firstly, I talk about happy first. I'm happy because,
1) Tmrw is the Taiping Trip
2) I've found my HAPPY SIM card
3) Have a great feeling that Man Utd is gonna do the double again!

And I'm sad because,
1) Our hero Lee Chong Wei lost to Lin Dan

But he will still be a hero to Malaysia.
He got Silver this time, which is kinda important because this is the first medal won by Malaysian since 1996 Olympic.

2) My stomach is upsetting me, always "Lau Sai"

3) Chelsea played well in the Portsmouth match!

Anyway, I'm still happy! LoL.

11 days to go...

Chemistry of the day - LOVE

Posted by James | | Wednesday, August 13, 2008 at 9:55:00 PM

Chemicals that related to love:

Phenylethylamine, Dopamine and Norephinephrine
- Found abundant in Chocolate
- Provide Romantic High

Oxytocin
- Encourage Cuddling between men and women

These are the chemicals that promotes the feeling of love. It will soon fades away. Guys, there is only one type of love that will never forsake us. 100% Promised! That is...

THE LOVE FROM GOD

Yupp! That's right. God never fails. HIS love towards us are unending and unlimited and free! HE wants to have an personal close relationship with you! His arms are widespread wanting to hug you. Yet how many times we want HIM as much as HE wants us? We only go to HIM when we want something from HIM, the rest of the time? Think about it.

If you're free, please do visit Pastor Shyju's blog, He talks about having a close relationship with God because God really loves us that HE wants to have a personal relationship with you. Make yourself right before him always.

Today I went to the One Life Revolution. The exhibits is amazing. Tmrw is last day already! Please go if you're free. It's worth going. It will change your mind set on HIV people from poor country. It's at Gurney Plaza. I bought their T-shirt. It's really nice and cheap (RM 20)! All their fund raised will go to the children!

I'm HIV negative. LOL

I've found this on Pastor Shyju's facebook. LoL.

Pastor Rajen. Remember him? LoL. He has shared in Ignite before.

This is Pastor Shyju! LoL.

My Happy Sim card =(

Thursday 07.08.08

Went to Jimmy's house for Connection Point. Ivan's sharing was short but sharp. Uncle William and Jimmy's dad shared a lot of things too. I've learned from them individually. After that, it's celebration time. We threw and had barbeque for the three of them: Jarold, Jolene and Ivan.
Had an awesome fellowship there.

Jarold, Ivan and Jolene
I shall dedicate this post to all the birthday boys and girls. Hahax.

Happy and blessed guys! GBU!

Friday 08.08.08

Went to college, was fishing all the time. My friend Lau Kong even took out his pen and wrote on his hand, "Wake me up when math class ends" LOL.

It's 080808, remind you guys again, it's Jolene, Emily, Ivan and Shi Jia's bday! Hahax! Besides, it's also Olympic Opening Ceremony Day! After college, attended Christian Fellowship. Learned a lot of things as well especially from other people's mistakes. After that, went home and watched the Olympic Beijing Opening Ceremony. The fireworks and lighting up torch part is nice nia. The rest, okok only.

Saturday 09.08.08

Went to Hunza for practice. Stayed there for whole day already with Ben, Melvin, Gabriel, Melissa and Edward. Had fun learning guitar and all. Ignite service was AWESOME and God's presence was AWESOME as Jolene shared about herself. After that, as usual, MAKAN time! We went to a cafe near the Penang Hill there (formerly known as Asia Cafe).

Sunday 10.08.08

Went to church in the morning. Service was AWESOME. God's presence was AWESOME too. Pastor Andrew shared on the topic on Our God. Our God is almighty! Amen! Then after that, went to eat duck rice with family. In the late evening, i went out for KAYAK-ing! It was AWESOME. First time in kayak! At first I was a bit scared, but then after prayed, I enjoyed myself! Fellowship was great too. 13 of us were there (Jimmy, Denise, Melvin, Daniel, Stephanie, Priscilla, Vivien, Me, Alan, Jarold, Kon Way, Luke and Edward). Had fun as there were a lot of cho-siao-ness. LoL. Sorry guys, no picture YET! Melvin should post about this soon I think. LoL.

Monday 11.08.08

Chemistry was fun. We did on Esterification! Wow. It involves a lot of weird apparatus. LoL. But early in the morning that time, mind already polluted with some lame jokes by Dr Teo. Swt!

Lau Kong's hand. Quite complicated when first set up the thing.

Distillation

Finally, after hours of sweat and all, our ester! LoL.

After that, Biology class was fun too. Ms Lai wants my friend to do a demo on how to resuscitate people. The fun part is FROM MOUTH TO MOUTH! Hahax!

Deepak, you're the MAN!

Overall, everything was AWESOME. But I lost my Happy Sim Card! Sad, was searching for it throughout the whole night. Anyway, I will still rejoice and sing unto the Lord.

Night Night. Got to sleep already! Take care! GBU!

You are a God of Just, a God full with unending love,
Your timing is the perfect ones.

May them seek you for wisdom and strength
So that they can rise up for you, oh Lord Jesus,

It is your kingdom oh Lord,
Enthrone this city oh Lord,

Amen.

PTL! Had a great fellowship there. Then, me, aaron and uncle William went to new world park to eat. After William drop us back, I gave Aaron tuition.

When around 7 o clock, sat bus back. On the way back, I saw Baptist book store is still open, so I get down from the bus and go and buy the album. PTL! I managed to grab it. Then, hopped into the next bus, went home and here I am blogging and listening to the songs! PTL!

What a busy day!

Desert Song

Posted by James | | at 7:40:00 AM

This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

This is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am conqueror and co- heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand

I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

All of my life in every season
You are still God,
I have a reason to sing,
I have a reason to worship

I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I received I will sow

This is our God

I'm doom

Posted by James | | at 7:11:00 AM

Im doom =(

I have a 50-50 chance screwing up my scholarship application

God help me...

Family dinner in Rasa Sayang Resort

Posted by James | | Friday, August 01, 2008 at 9:16:00 PM

Hey guys. I love today. Know why?

Cause it's friday - last day of lecture class and tmrw is saturday which is Ignite and church! Siok rite? LoL. okay, today! Me, Ash, Lau Kong and Glorianne went to watch Batman - Dark knight in gurney. Had fun. Batman, to me is seriously the best film of the year. Joker was phenomenal, but it is not really good film to watch cause it's violent.

This is my friend Lau Kong, we're at the midland Shell petrol station.

Then, after college, dad pick me up and headed off to Rasa Sayang resort for International buffet. Don't get me wrong, we're not really rich. It's just that my dad's ex staff is now working as a manager there. So he wants to thank my dad by chia-ing him and family to eat the buffet. I heard in the hotel, one pax is around 99 bucks and we ate for FREE! Praise the Lord! We ate a lot of food. From western grill to eastern sushi and desert with the fundue. So let the pictures do the talking!
