If you pray for patience, does God give you patience, or does he give you opportunities to be patient? If you pray that God will bring your family closer, does he bring you closer, or does he give you opportunities to be closer?
Hmmm...now that got me thinking.
Been facing some stuff lately and it's been pretty hard for me. Sometimes i don't know what to feel or think. It's just, too profound and ununderstandable for me to understand. I get exhausted and fall asleep just praying about it. Sometimes I wonder whether it's really all worth it...to put on a facade and pretend everything is alright. Be all smiley and nice and little miss perfect to everybody around me. To care so much about what others think. I really salute people who are just really vocal and public about all the dirt in their lives. They go around cursing and swearing and spelling out in detail everything they go through in their lives. I wish I could do THAT sometimes. heh. But then again, what's my problem is my problem. I don't have it in me to go around taking it out on others, merajuking and putting on a sour face in front of my friends, being snappy and irritated at the slightest thing, emoing and affecting other people's emotions at the same time. People like that irritate the crap out of me. In fact I just encountered someone like that just now. So damn irritating. And yet I chose to keep my mouth shut, put on a smiley face, be nice about it, pretend everything is alright. I don't understand myself sometimes.
Pastor John told us just now that he prays for desperation for all of us, because it's only when we're desperate that we really cling on to Jesus, to trust in him for everything. That, i find, is so true. In fact, I think i just may be going through my period of desperation now. I learnt early on that life isn't always a bed of roses. In fact, it is NEVER a bed of roses. The sooner you learn to deal with that, the happier you become. I guess I'm generally a happy person. I go through loads of stuff that I guess everyone goes through sooner or later. But I'm glad God put in me the ability to take my problems one day at a time, to not allow anything to hurt me so deeply that I completely give up altogether, to learn to live and let die, to be happy and joyful amidst all the negative stuff, to be able to cry and yet laugh again, to tolerate all the crap in this world.

Lunch at cafe...
There's this cleaner lady in the cafe who is always always on the prowl looking for dishes to collect. She prances on you as soon as you finish eating. Sometimes she doesn't even bother to ask you whether or not you're done with your food. She'll just snatch the plate and leave you glaring in her wake. She's like a vulture looking for dead bodies you know onot. haha okla I sound really mean. She's not that bad lah. i mean, I salute her for taking her tasks seriously and not sleeping on the job, but sometimes it gets really irritating you know. Like just now, Hanah wasn't done with her lunch. She was just leaving her food idly while talking, and then the cleaner lady just came and took it away. Like wth man! haha. So anyway, we were complaining complianing about it...
Me: hmph. You know why she so semangat onot. Cos these people get commission wan. For every dirty plate they collect they get paid. That's why she so excited to collect it...
Ken: *all wide eyed and surprised and enlightened, like he's just discovered the secret of the century* Ohhhhhhh...really ahhh....no wonder lahhhhhhhh...
HAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA. Ken is so funny lah. The look on Zali's face at that moment was priceless la. It said:"kenyouaresostupidican'tbelieveiknowyou"... heheheheheh...
I knew it was gonna come at some point. You're not a complete, established driver until you've had some sort of accident to bring your big head back down to earth. And I was officially ordained as a complete, established driver today. By the white kancil, that thankfully did not burst up in flames when I rammed it into the curb at Giant. I can be quite stupid at times. Who on earth mixes up the brake and accelarator pedals?? Lagipun I was drving an AUTO for goodness sake! What my mom calls a "TOY" car. I think even controlling a PS2 console is harder than driving an auto. So it must be the lack of sleep lah. I was up till 3.30am last night reading Deception point. Which will bring me to my next point soon, but let's stay on the topic of the stupid accident for now k.
I was driving into a parking space lah. Which is really no big deal, except I don't know what got hold of me. I just suddenly spaced out for a while there. Or maybe I was just paying too much attention to what my mom was saying. Then I realised I had to brake the car. And guess what I did? I RAMMED on the accelarator babeh!! Thrilling marhh. i needed adrenaline. haha. The car screeeeeeeeeeeeeched as it banged against the gravel. But thank God I realised my mistake in time, so still can brake. Then. My heart stopped. Wah the adrenaline rush I felt then was all i needed to jolt me out of sleep. So folks, next time u need to stay awake to study or whatever, forget coffee. Just take your car and ram it into a wall. Confirm will work wan. Back to the car. I was so so afraid the front bumper was gonna fall of or get squashed up or whatever it is kancils do when they get banged, but aiseh. I actually only scraped the bottom of the car. So there are some hideous scratches, but nothing more. Thank GOD!! Phew.
Deception point: I SO SO LOVE DAN BROWN. I've actually only read 2 of his books, but both gripped me almost as much as Prison Break did. Granted, his interpretation of biblical scriptures are completely warped even though he claims to be a Christian, but his work is spellbinding and amazingly intelligent. He leads you on this trail, makeing you think "confirm lah, that's the culprit lah" and then all of a sudden he just twists the whole thing around and makes the culprit the person you LEAST expect it to be. SOOOO chi kek. Adrenaline rush kau kau when u get to that particular line where he reveals the culprit. Almost like the feeling when I banged the car. heh. Plus, you get bite-size bits of information about history and general knowledge and technology which you actually look forward to reading. He's made me a lot smarter. haha. Serious wan. He's genius, really. Now I wanna read Da vinci code and digital fortress.
Some random stuff: The police found a stolen blue Mercedes parked in front of my house 2 days ago. So they came to question us. heh heh. And guess what? you won't believe this: we discovered it was our neighbour who stole the car!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah right lah. I told you you wouldn't belive that right. And you shouldn't have. hehe. But the stolen car was real lah, apparently 4 men stole it from Kelana Jaya and parked it in front of our house. The police towed it away d. So freaky man.
My ear piercing hurts! I put ice on it in the morning to curb the swelling but it doesn't work. How??
My mantra for the rest of my life: BRAKE IS LEFT GAS IS RIGHT BRAKE IS LEFT GAS IS RIGHT BRAKE IS LEFT GAS IS RIGHT BRAKE IS LEFT GAS IS RIGHT brake is left gas is right brake is left gws id rifjt bwsje eja;kjd adfajadfjaf alk;adjfa fjdfhjk;ajsdfaggajadfadfkafjdjf....
Steffi left =( Dinash left =( Roshan's birthday =) Start of new sem =)
A day of mixed emotions. Got up feeling all pumped because I'd be seeing my classmates again after 2 weeks. Then I got sounding by my dad in the car for driving like some lunatic. Well, it wasn't that bad lah, he didn't exactly say I drove like a lunatic, but judging from the fact that my dad said I have "poor judgment" and I drive "too fast" and "yohh!" he's "so scared" to be in my car, I gather that I was driving like some lunatic lah. And my dad doesn't normally comment on whatever nonsense I do. He'll just laugh it off and make some joke and tell my mom to chill when she nags. heheh. My dad rocks. So anyway, I think, i THINK only lah, that I drove really badly. How? >.< Then college. Jess failed driving test. Jane hasn't watched Simpsons. (ehem ehem) Priscilia wore gorgeous earrings which costs RM3. Simon found his missing glasses. Roshan cut his hair. Jshakey cut his hair. Kimi cut her hair. Nicole cut her hair. 3K lalafied his hair. yada yada yada, went to the airport to send Steffi off. Gosh I won't be seeing you in such a longgg longgggg time!! How lah! I'm gonna miss you and the times we had. You're all grown now, leaving for a foreign land. I'm sure you'll do really well there too cos it's in your blood =) All the best babe, and make sure u miss me more than I miss you! =)
okokok! Since YOU have been bugging me for weeks on end to do this thing, I think I will be nice to you lah ok. Or else you'll probably bug me for the rest of my life right onot ;p

*** I saw a chicken being slaughtered today. Reminds me of MY survival camp when i was supposed to slaughter chicken too, only the very considerate chickens decided to save me the anguish and mental torture and decided to die in the van instead. So we had very nice ikan panggang and sausages for dinner instead. Barbeque at survival camp. How absolutely wonderful! Now kids, don't think this is gonna happen again! Be prepared to scream when the blood flows and the chicken walks around headless. MURDERERS!!! heheheheh!! Wish I could be there to laugh at you guys! ;p
The other day I read this heart-rending story about how this couple in China saves unwanted baby girls from death by adopting them and bringing them up as their own children. This couple can barely make ends meet for themselves-the husband earns RM400 a month collecting scrap metal, they're already old and live in a dilapidated shack. Yet they're still bringing in little girls to live with them. To date they've adopted and brought up 14 girls if I'm not mistaken. The girls get rice and cooked dishes 3 times a day, while this couple survives on bread and plain noodles. They refuse any money from some of the older girls who have already started working because they want the girls to have a better life. Once, one of the babies fell sick and the couple found themselves in debt trying to settle the medical bills. Over the years the couple have borrowed RM10000 or so to bring up the kids.
This is one of the most heart wrenching stories I've read in a long time. We are just so so blessed in this part of the world and many times we take it for granted. We complain about anything and everything under the sun worth opening the mouth for. And the worst thing is, we don't ever go out of the way to help needy people. At least I don't lah. I've always heard people telling me not to give alms to the beggars on the streets because they don't deserve it, cos they have two arms and two feet and they can work and earn their own money and all that. And then there are people who tell me not to trust people who come to coffee shops claiming to be from certain charity organisations because a lot of it is bullshit. Over the years, I've learnt to reject giving simply because of all this negative talk. I could have made a choice to disregard these negative comments I picked up along the way and still give anyway, I mean it's not like I'm so poor right. I could definitely afford like say, RM5 to buy a pen to support an organisation. Come to think of it, this small amount could change someone else's life. Well yeah, they COULD be ripping me off or lying to me, and YES, I KNOW they definitely gain some sort of commission from the sale of the super expensive pen which most of the time doesn't work anyway, but at the end of the day, I still am helping someone who really needs my help. But NO. I chose to be kiamsiap and disregard these people seeking help. I give towards missions in church, but when it comes to coffee shops and beggars, I honestly can't remember the last time I gave or bought something. I mean, whenever they come to me I truly feel sorry for them and I smile and say sorry I can't help you, but what is the point right onot. If you don't give it's not going to make any difference being sorry and compassionate in your heart. Passion without action=pointless. So teruk right.
And then here you read of people who can barely lead comfortable lives themselves, and yet they go out of their way, sacrifice their money and time and energy and everything else to save young girls. Just makes you stop and think of how much love we could afford to give and yet we don't bother, doesnt it? My new resolution is to give and not ignore the people seeking for help in walkways and coffee shops. Doesn't matter if it's just RM1 or a few loose change, I just wanna give. And I urge you to do the same. Don't listen to your teachers who tell you not to give to beggars. Sheesh, what do they teach kids in school man!! I learnt this new idiom in writing and referencing class: AS COLD AS CHARITY. I was wondering how charity could possibly be cold, but now I understand. If you're not like me and you actually give, most of the time it's because we feel we have to, or we'd feel guilty if we don't. We never truly give because we really care for someone or want to change that person's life right? How many of us know the names of the beggars who come to us, or say hi how do you do, or smile when we give to these people? As cold as charity. Sigh. Damn frustrating to know I'm really such a teruk person. I must change.
On another note, Lincoln Burrows is so amazing. He borrowed 90000 bucks to put his bro through college, went through all that crap, put up with all that dissing from his bro, and never once complained or blamed Michael for whatever happened. Heck, he didn't even tell Michael he was in jail because of him! Why are these people so amazing wan!! I know lah it's a tv show and all, but I'm sure stuff like that happens in real life oso. Angels man i tell you, pure angels.
But of course, the Chinese couple and Lincoln Burrows cannot even come close to comparing with the love of Jesus Christ. We don't really stop to think of God's love a lot do we? And when i actually stop to think of it, I'm just overwhelmed by His wonderful grace and mercy. He died on the cross for my sins. Because of Him, I'm saved. I'm free. I have eternal life. No matter how many times I screw up and break His heart, He forgives. I could be as cold as charity, yet He still loves me. I could be the exact opposite of Lincoln Burrows and be mean to my sister, yet He still loves me. I am SO SO SO glad I have Jesus in my life. I love you Jesus!! You rock my world!!
I was just cleaning up my room and discarding all the unwanted stuff in preparation for "THE QUEEN's" moving in. Yes folks, THE QUEEN is moving in with me and my sister. Anyway, back to my point. I realised I've amassed a whole lot of unwanted stuff over the years. Stuff that I simply chuck around just because i have no where else to put it, stuff that I wanted to throw away but decided against it because it has "sentimental value", or because I think I might need to use it again in the future, or because I just saje wanted to keep it. And now who gets all the trouble when it comes to spring cleaning? Me lah. Summor who. I should have just thrown all the stuff away in the first place. Saves me all the trouble now. Now also I have to throw away wat right onot. Waste time waste energy only. Sheesh. That's the trouble with me. I collect junk. Stuff that should be thrown away in the first place.
oh btw, THE QUEEN is none other than...
MY NEW WARDROBE.
heeeee...
Now the workers are at my house and there's a big big problem. They can't seem to fit THE QUEEN through the stairway. How lah now? The shop tauke is coming soon. Ciao.

Aargh!

I had fun lah, though JANE ffk-ed(You have lots of explaining to do woman!!!! ;p) and Jess went home early and Roshan and Carina got sooooo drunk we couldn't really chat on Thurs, but it was fun nevertheless. Thank God Pris wasn't drunk too. Or else me and Simon would be the only sober ones. yoh.
Roshan, you the man!! I might consider listening to your music now. hahaha...
