Work work...

Ahh... its been a while since i last updated keke... well i would like to blame it on the poor internet connection really... since the Taiwan earthquake my connection has been going on at the speed of a snail. Its pretty annoying although it has improved somewhat lately. That i suppose is in addition to the fact that i am normally very slack anyway... bumming around .

But actually not bumming anymore... every since school started (well secondary school anyway) i have been doing some temporary teaching for the Form 1 and 2 classes. Its not been too bad... although the standard of English of some students is appalling... I guess I just have to take things slowly depending on which class it is. I'm also teaching 2 classes of civic a week. Boy I have to tell you it is one of the most boring/useless classes i have ever seen... Its a lot of deep stuff like self image... potentional.. etc.... like a cross between Malay and Moral... eek...

Although things aren't too bad now... but i think its gonna be harder next week once the students start handing in their homework ! bleh...

back !

:-) I'm back !... in the steaming heat of Malaysia! waaa.... after 2 days of non-stop airport-ing.. kee.. its nice to be home and get settled in a bit... It seems that some things have changed yet some still remain the same. Home seems the same... just older..but cleaner.. keke.. curtesy of the Indonesian maid we now have. She is pretty useful around the house. My siblings... still as computer obsessed as ever... but they are growing up to be huge! My younger brother is almost as tall as me and my sister is practically my height... and bigger really.. i think i'm moving down the scale... :p

Oh well.. am currently trying to connect to my mIRC server with no real luck! Argh... there goes my anime download... btw.. i have gotten back to watching jap anime since when i was stuck in Kuching airport for 5 hours straight... i just watched like 8 episodes out of sheer boredom.. so now i'm back in the groove.. keke..

Just hoping for cooler days and restful times... i get sleepy at 9++pm... bleh

...


Today was a pretty eventful day! First off ... had my practice exam in the afternoon.... was a bit of a waste of study since it was pretty much unexpected stuff and it didn't really matter anyway... keke...

And then celebrated my flatmates belated 23rd b-day! keke... went out to get a cake n out for dinner.... It was pretty random since we managed to get through entire dinner without actually once wishing her happy birthday... n then we went to St Clair.. n after some guilty apologies for 'forgetting'(well pretending that we forgot) we had dessert at a cafe..


The most bizarre thing was that on the way back to the car... my other flatmate who was taking photos.. got a bit left behind n in the rush to catch up with us... her phone slipped out of her pocket and fell into the sea!!!!!!!! (coz we were walking beside the beach and there was a railing with quite a steep drop to where the water level was) oh boy did she freak out.... she actually went down there in the dark ... at high tide to look for the phone.... it was pretty scary.. all dark n we were a bit worried that she would get swept away as she was almost bathed in sea water....
eek....


she didn't manage to find the phone though sadly :-(

We did get home and managed to surprise the birthday girl with cake .. keke.. although it was one costly evening ... for some of us...

And i have to say its the wackiest thing that has ever happened... really... u never think that something like this would really happen in real life would u? not to mention its Halloween today... (plays scary music... )


keke, scary sylvia... >>

Shadows

Fade in,
Fade out,
Look over,
Look under,
Look through,
What do you see?

Look but not see,
Just shadows,
Insignificant,
Invisible,
Lonely,

Shadows in the dark.

Passion and eternity...

My poor abandoned blog - only comes into use when i'm in a reflective mood. Lately , i have just realised that i have three main passions in life - food, computers and medicine. And to cover it all is God!

I love making food to eat hehe... enjoying recipes.. mmm... baking cakes in particular as of late. And the computer aspect well lots of stuff that u can do with computer, i particularly like graphic design despite my lack of talent at that field :p i like to think that i am more innovative to make for the lack of pure creative instinct. And then there is medicine, that which takes up most of my daylight hours literally, since i start at 7.30am/8am and get back at 5pm/late and by then the sun has set. I enjoy what i do and study is sometimes interesting but i reckon i lack perseverance in that area since after a whole day of medical stuff, who feels like studying it some more? after all there are more things to do with my time - namely stress-free time wasting sort of things :-p which are more enjoyable ...

And then, recently there has been Outreach! Its all getting so exciting and I can feel more in touch with God, somehow i believe this is the way to go. Because we all have our passions and work and stuff we do but at the end of it What is the Point? People are more important than just material things, work and all that stuff. In the end, we should be more worried about eternity! As we believe that eternity is in the hearts of men... so then should we make our effort to make sure that everyone has a chance to hear about God. And in a really practical way, this is where it all falls into place. I believe it will build us up as much as we want to bring others to Christ.

"He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end." - Ecclesiastes 3:11
