Felt being loved

It's always being great that you know you are being LOVED. And bear in mind everyone, no matter where, who, what you are, you are always LOVED by someone in the world.

Do I felt being loved today? YES OF COURSE! What can be more better if I felt the love of God when I wake up? How can I resist the love of my Mum to wake up so early to prepare breakfast for me and send me to school? And how I can deny my Dad's love towards my family as our breadwinner and protector of the family?

Can't you feel the love in school? Though sometime it's harsh, teachers are always the ones who love us just as their own children. They are so dedicated in teaching, not only to make us ready for exam, but also to become better citizens, better people. They don't want us to be in error and useless rubbish. How dare we say our friends didn't love us? They are the ones making our life beautiful, helping you in studies, being in your accompany for chats and be your ears to listen to your troubles?

So let's us create a world of love in these loveless world. Banish hatred in our heart, and let love reigns in us. Love cannot be reduced in merely man-woman relationship, but then, it's far more complex, much beyond what you (and me) can think about.

From now on, do feel the love around you, enjoy it, savour it, keep it, appreciate it. Certainly your day will be more brighter and full of hope towards future. Future will never be in despair again.

P.S: I cannot help myself in typing this probably LAME post. Bear with it's boredom OK?

God bless you all!

I will never let go....

Another schooling day, another day filled with so much things, all of that baffling my mind.

Start of the day was smooth. Celebration of the Baptism of Christ at chapel was also smooth. Getting along with people was smooth. Even trying to concentrate on study also VERY SMOOTH. Seems like everything went smoothly in my way. Feel happy and joyful!

Luckily I didn't went for assembly this morning, if so would cost my whole day to be in ruins. LOL. Speaking about prefect stuffs, I hardly do any jobs today. No canteen duty (today's my off day), no morning duties (you know why) and didn't stay for orientation. Am I being irresponsible and negligent? Only God knows. Hehehe....

Didn't see much of her today at school. Even it's hard for me as well to pick up the phone to SMS her, or start a chat at MSN. Probably this is the only down side of the day. Anyway, as time goes by, I discovered my feelings getting dimmer and dimmer, and I am not so willing to reigniting the initiation feeling. It's not going to worth it. I stick hang on to my "love everyone" policy, which of course, not only rewarding and enjoying, it helps me to grow as a person as well.

At afternoon nothing much was done, except some prayer and sleeping. Later at night I went to cathedral for biblical theology. The small classroom was packed. Being the late ones, I have to sit and write without tables. Thank God I am diligent enough to write the notes down with F1 speed.

Back home later and trying to blog again. Internet connection still not yet fully recovered, sad to say. Anyhow, after this I'll have to do homeworks and filing. Ho, it's going to be another sleepless night.

Thank God for this SMOOTH day, for letting me more about Word of God. I fully trust my God, he will take care of me forever!

God bless you all!

Humility matters

Walao eh, what happened to Blogger? It took me ages to load this posting page.

Anyhow, glad anyway because I can blog something here. Today is the first Sunday of the year, and also celebrates the Epiphany of our Lord.

When arrived at cathedral this morning, I stopped by the crib again and saw 3 magi (or called wise men) venerating baby Jesus, with the 3 gifts- gold, frankincense, and myrrh. This is the Epiphany, where God showed himself in human form to the whole world, to "foreigners" like us. The "special star" which guides the magi, is the light of faith, or Holy Spirit, which leads us to Christ, be more bounded to him. Plus, it's a call from God, to become true witnesses of Christ.

We also have to emulate the magi, which made a long way from Persia to meet Christ, the real King, after watching the "special star." How happy they were when they see the true King, the truth that they longed for? As Christians, are we really willing to overcome obstacles to meet Christ, to accept Christ as King and Lord? Do we still willing to remain Christians of "half bucket water"?

Just some imperfect and incomplete reflection. Just I had said at Christmas, Epiphany marks an end to Christmastide. Thank God for these wonderful Christmas days.

Rain poured down heavily during the Mass, and our family was caught in cathedral. I waited to test my patience, whilst playing with rain water. Since of the heavy rain, my siblings and I skipped the cell group and went straight home after breakfast.

At home I relaxed, prayed rosary, and have some reading about Confirmation. Well, I am going to be confirmed this year, and I know this sacrament is BIG. It will complete me as a Christian with all the gifts of Holy Spirit. I won't want to take this lightly.

Later my sister and I went back to Cathedral for the pre-confirmation talk. Met up many friends at there, like Priscilla, Xian Mei, Kevin, Mattheus etc. But then, the process of the talk was not really enjoyable for me. Pardon me if I being proud, I would rather to undergo confirmation with the grown-ups rather than with youths, don't ask me why. I found myself little bit proud during the talk, even though not showing it. The talk is about history of Catholic Church, which I heard already during theology classes last year. Just some "refreshment of memories" only.

It's organized by Christ Teens, where it's something similar as YCS in school. Loud and booming music, singing through mic instead of choir, bla bla bla..... Many "push factors" in my heart actually.

Thinking back, humility matters the most. I am inside it already, so bear with it. Maybe this time is a training from God to become more and more humble, so as to make me worthy to be sealed with the Gifts of Holy Spirit.

And so I went home and found myself on bed after that. Life continued as usual. Chatted with Chew Rou where she asked me to think of an ambition for her writing of article. I was surprised and bewildered, hey, she's supposed to make her own ambition. But being her friend, I helped her by listing occupations which I think suitable for her, as well as the reasons. Glad I can help, though I am still bewildered. LOL....

Enough for all the craps, thank and praise God for this Sunday. I hope in coming week I can grow stronger in faith, continue to love God and others as much as I can. Grant O Lord, a pure heart to be created in me. I want to surrender everything mine to God Most High.

God bless you all!

Love you....

Hi there again! Back to blogging after resting for one day! Miss me or not? LOL

Anyway, it's Saturday, the day I had waited for a long time since the school reopened last Wednesday. It's supposed to be a wonderful and free-going day, and it was. Thank God!

Woke up early in the morning after 7-hour-sleep, then got myself prepared for Mass. After breakfast, I walked all the way to HQ for some meeting. Glad to have that meeting to enable me to go out alone later. Wakakaka....

Anyway, I have nothing much to do at the meeting. It's the meeting for the enrollment day, in which my juniors are in charge. While doing my Add Maths there, I played some high-end mobile phones. Due to extreme boredom, everything playable inside the training room became my toy to grab attention. Anyhow, pretty impressed with my juniors' commitment towards this activity. Hope they will do a great success next week, and get many many new members! Wahaha....

Enough with that at HQ, I went to major bookshops to buy my workbooks. I can say I am forced to buy it because school wants them. Seriously I don't think it's worth it or not to buy those books. Sad to see my money fly.

But them, I think this book is a MUST BUY if you want to excel in Add Maths....



A REALLY MUST BUY!

As you can see, it has 1514 questions, comprising all the chapters of Form 4 & 5. It covers all from basic to hardcore, challenging questions. It's even recommended by teachers as well. Don't say I don't tell you, many questions in exams are from this book, wakaka....

After visiting 3 bookshops in town, I spend a fortune again for lunch at KFC. Kinda guilty because after having my meal, I discovered I am short of money for boarding a bus home! What's more annoying, I only short of 14 cents! WHAT THE.... Anyway I boarded the bus with a "not-so-good-feeling." Thank God again for bringing me home with no hassles.

Then in afternoon I spend time starting new prefect blog in Linux. Suddenly I have a desire to understand girls, want to know everything. Thus I started searching everywhere on the net, and saw many things as well, including those I am not supposed to see. LOL

Girls are always the most special, wonderful and yet mysterious creation of God. It's always enjoyable and great to get along with them. Praise God for that!

After some nap and dinner, all of my family went out to Boulevard to see some pottery stuffs. Very beautiful I have to say, the art, the drawings, the colours and so on. Mum even tried to bargain 75% off price, where I think if everyone's like that, it's better for the owner to stay selling the potteries at China, no need come here. Didn't buy anything after 30 minutes, so all proceed to Boulevard for grocery shopping. Then went straight back home.

Line connection is very poor by now, which out my patience to test to wait for the pages to load properly. Chatted with Susie who obviously confused whether to transfer back to St. Joseph's. Cannot give any advice, even though I want her to return to SJS. Anyhow, let her be, I'll missing her presence at class. Hahaha...

Thank God for this day. God is forever my primary factor to live on with life. Apart from my Lord Jesus, I can do nothing. Absolutely nothing.

God bless you all!

A complete turn around!

What a day! I cannot complain any more with the outcome I had now in this late hour! So satisfying, so great, feel so good!

A great relief that I have found my camera back after back from Chapel. What again, I started shooting photos again whenever I like it, and hopefully I can start the other 2 new blogs as soon as possible.

School time was somehow great for me. I have never be so busy like today. Today Biology teacher gave me much homework to do, in which I had to do 4 reports that have to be passed up tomorrow! Praise the Lord, I have done them all! What an achievement! Cool man, I am not praising myself la, just very pleased I managed to do all of them in a day.

Kinda fun with other periods too. See my class blog later for more details. I hoped I can remember them all so that I can present to you the best drama in class and in school.

So after that I stayed at school for the Form 1 orientation. It's needless after all, but then I had some fun teaching the juniors my "butt-shaking dance." It's very embarrassing at that time you know, shaking my butt in front of many people repeatedly. Yes, they're laughing, they followed me shaking their butt, but then in the end, it's not used at all. LOL

Since we were not "useful" in that, we were allowed to go home early. Have a shot (again, you may say that) at bus stop outside there.


With the always lovely Emma....

I have no idea why I can only have great pictures with Emma only. Height problem? Posing problem? Teeth problem? LOL, anything la.....

Felt so tired upon reaching home, yet have to keep on reminding myself that I have lot's of work to do later. But then I still managed to steal a sleep for myself.

Went to church for theology class, but returned home shortly because the class was yet to be started. Then I started to be busy with the PEKA, whilst working hard with the photos.

There's something wrong with the Photobucket, where I cannot even sign in into my album. Very frustrating indeed. So if you all experienced difficulty in effort to access my photo album, please accept my sincere apology.

Nothing much I want to say, but praise the Lord for the day of turning around!

God bless you all!

What a BAD school reopening day

Yeah, never felt so bad in the school reopening day like what I have been experienced today! Read on to know more.

Actually I hope this day could be terrific, could be nice, could be went in my way. However, it went horribly wrong for me. Hopes are left to ashes.

As well as I entered the class, I already knew the seating plan was not pleasing to me at all. My "geographical" position still not the best for me. Fair enough, I still can take it in.

After the Mass, what a horror to me when I see the assembly was all in trouble! Every prefect, including me, was totally not prepared for it. Enough with the super duper long. boring assembly, the student inspection was also very horrid.

Prefect meeting after that, to me, went all the way wrong. I don't think it's beneficial, nor the long speech by teacher has anything to do with us. Well then, we all managed to get out of the boredom after 1 hour inside there. Later I followed my class monitor to help taking the textbook, later helping my colleagues arranging the class. Very tired already upon reaching class, with my all smelly sweat "fragrance" around myself.

When back at home, my mood was not good already. I could not do my jobs properly and with focus. When Mum yelled at me, complaining my undone work, I could not help but to think "I am really suck." With disappointment I slept for sometime.

Thought I would feel better after such a long sleep. Suddenly I discovered is LOST! OK, you all might celebrating now, making fun of me "Finally this guy has lost his camera! He's making own trouble! He deserves that! Shame on him!" etc etc. Well, very fair enough, pardon me being subjective, but very fair enough. Parents' reaction was not as big as I thought. Siblings already making fun of me. Fine then, maybe I really deserves that, but then it made my day a total disaster.

As for that, I wish to announce that the new class blog and prefect blog will be put on hold until a later date. Hope I can find my camera back, just keep hoping.

I surrender all my lame thoughts of myself, all the horrid things happening today, all my emotions to God. I am sure He's in charge of everything, and always gives what is exceeding my expectations. Even in my worst situation, I am very very sure He's always be with me.

God bless you all!

Happy New Year 2007!

I think still not too late to wish you all a blessed and happy new year of 2007!

It's second day of the year by now, but then I still I can make a recap of what happened yesterday, while awaiting in anxiety for the school reopening day tomorrow.

Start of with 31st December first. I didn't went to any countdown celebration the day before, just went to Lutong for church's year-end gathering for some good dinner. Then went up to Canada Hill to take some stroll, then went to sleep in peace.

Then at 1 January, I woke up quite early and prepared myself for Mass for Solemnity of Mother of God. It's Bishop who preceded the Mass, so it's quite a long one. As always, I made my resolutions there, to love God always, to grow as a better person and disciple of Jesus Christ. Not for academics, nor relationships, nor money, it's all only God for this whole new year.

Later at the whole New Year Day, I spent time resting at home, plus went out with family to Boulevard. Glad also to sent out many New Year wishes to all my dear friends.

So today is my last day of my one-month-holiday. Enough? Maybe yes, maybe no? Yes because I want to meet my friends who I missed so much. Plus if continue to stay at home, what can I do? No because I am very lazy to face all the tensions of Form 5, being a prefect, and being a student. Hope tomorrow will be a bright start for my probably last ever schooling year.

Probably, only going to school, can make my blog more interesting to read? Agree? Hehehe....

Just wait for school reopen lo! Actually I really can't wait for any "tomorrow!" My heart is pounding for tomorrow......

Whatever it is, hope is my prime factor to continue my life as child of God, to continue to love God and others with a sincere heart!

God bless you all!
