Touched By God!

Ohya, for those who does not know which church I'm going to. I'm actually attending cell and service at World Harvest Church.



What happened today was I was...

TOUCHED BY GOD!

Attended church service at 10am this morning and it was "cekap"! Anyway, Ps Jason took us to this place called Steven's Corner for lunch together with a few other church members. This mamak is the largest mamak I've ever seen!







Adrian and I ordered Nasi Goreng Pataya and they have their signature on it.





And yea, we actually cooked our own dinner at night and NO, we did not cook maggi or anything "simple" =P

Kay-Elle : Day 1
Wednesday, May 27, 2009 09:23


Hey peeps, I'm already in KL. Wow, the journey here was super boring. Anyway, wasn't really free when I got back here. Went out to buy some stuffs, had lunch and stuffs. Btw, it is possible to spend only RM10.00 on food per day IN KL! If you really use your cash wisely la. Went to UTAR too thou, went and check on our classes. It is possible to apply to be in the same class with your friends thou but I did not know that the process of getting you into that particular class is kinda complicated.

You actually need a letter with A VALID REASON and my friends actually told the clerk that we're in the same house, we're having transportation problems and stuffs and that particular person said it's not a reason. Wow, arrogant betul la that clerk and she's a FEMALE! You know what she told us? "You all are Uni students edi, now you all applying for the same class. What if next time you all come out to work in different companies? Would you wanna apply for the same company? When you all wanna learn how to be independent?" Walao, I really felt like arguing back. Kau kau, tarak puas hati! And you know, while she was saying all those, she wasn't really looking at us you know? She was refilling ink if I'm not mistaken. UTAR KL people kinda different la but thank God, the girl in the Finance Department was friendly la. At least we know there's still someone that you could count on there. All thanks to her, we got to know that me, Seng Hoe and Kok Hui will be in the same class for now. What we gotta do now is to get Daniel back on to this side. And yea, seriously the UTAR here is very different compared to Kampar but it was better than I expected la. LOL!



Went to apply for p1 after that, Aaron couldn't live without Internet right? So we actually ended up getting two 1.2mbps modems although that guy from the p1 booth recommended us to use one 2.4mbps modem the previous time we went there. Housemates decision right? So far so good, I actually did some research before this on p1 and what I got was the line isn't really satisfying la but the line here is good man. Oops, I mean excellent! Although the line was disconnected once last night. So yea, was kinda upset also last night. Well, let's not talk about it for now. So I guess that's it for Day 1 in KL. Tcare and God Bless!

P/S : The mosquitos are killing me! =S

Hosanna at Breeze Ipoh!
Monday, May 18, 2009 20:14


Went for cell last Saturday and it seemed like it's gonna be the last cell meeting already. Everyone will be leaving to KL very soon. Sheesh, I still don't feel like leaving Ipoh! Can I please stay in Kampar? I just don't feel like leaving some people here. Well, let's just hope that the course will be back here in Kampar after a year or so which seems to be IMPOSSIBLE!

So, cell was about "My life without a purpose...". Go ahead, think about it! What is your purpose? and what would happen if your life do not have a purpose? Well, a simple question which actually made me think quite a lot that day. Owh yea, I was checking through my mail and I received an e-mail from Adrian and it was called "letter from Satan" or something. That made me think a lot too, I've forwarded to a few people. Check whether you've received one from me.

Somehow I'm gonna miss CGBC Youth =( To be honest, ever since I became a Christian, I never actually attended church. Well, I do go for church services but not that often. I used to go to Wesley Methodist with my parents ever since we accepted Christ. Somehow, I was not really active that time, as in I don't attend youth services and all. Then I started to skip morning services because I really don't feel like going. Till we were told about Hosanna, which is our cell's name, some people would really understand how hard was it to get me to go to church. I think Ee Chiet would know how tough was it, I guess I was too stubborn back then till she got angry and upset at me a few times. LOL! But soon, it wasn't that hard anymore right? Love Hosanna! Anyway, I edited these pics a lil cause the quality of the originals aint good enough:







Yeah, the pics are still kinda blurry. I tried my best! Sorry people. Forgotten about the camera settings before we took these photos =S

Then it was Sunday, which was yesterday. We actually planned to have a gathering which turned out to be some sort of farewell dinner. We went to this place called Breeze Ipoh. Wow, super cekap place man! I mean it's a very nice place. Adrian was like saying "We're at such a high-class place and we're gonna sit on the floor". Played with Uno Stacko and Zach asked me to book 8 badmintons courts for tomorrow! LOL! Nah, he actually meant 2 courts for 8 people. Courts booked for 1pm tomorrow, people! I actually enjoyed yesterday's dinner, we got to spend some quality time together and stuffs. Thanks Ee Chiet for the meal! =D

Photos from Breeze Cafe:

Okay, I removed the colours because they were too yucky. I know, black and white isn't a good choice too. This was what I ordered yesterday. What was it called again? I think it's Tepanyanki Chicken Rice or something.



Adrian said "Walao, so save cost meh? It's made of paper? I thought it's a pillar!"



Cekap place right? Love the lights and the "feel". LOL!



Me and Ee Chiet.



The gnome and I.



Sue Quin posed for almost every pic I took with her inside =P That's Sin Yee and David next to her btw.



The guy with the Tom Yam noodles.



Sue Quin and David.



Ee Chiet and Zachariah.



Once again, I've uploaded these pics on facebook and posted them on our group's page. You can get the originals for me as these photos are all edited. Sin Yee is having the remaining pics. Tcare and God Bless!

What happened in Kay-Elle?
00:36


Back for another update. Just came back from a farewell dinner for my cell in this place called Breeze Cafe. Well, it's a very neat place and I'll blog about it soon. For this update, I will actually share about what happened in KL for the past few days.

I went down to KL again! This time with my mom and Daniel. Remember I mentioned that I bought this DIY table for RM119.00 in Jusco? One of the purpose of going all the way down to this hectic and complicated city called KL, is to fix this table. We took the 9.00am train from Ipoh and we met some earthlings at the railway station. Some people that I do not feel like meeting and what a coincidence, they are going to KL too! What more their seat were just next to ours! Reached KL Sentral at around 12pm and went to KFC for lunch.



Went back to PV6 after that, first thing is to fix my table. Well, it was kinda easy with the instructions and all. My cousin was on the way back to KL on that very same day and he promised us that he'll take us to a furniture shop to get our mattresses. We went to this HUGE furniture shop, Daniel and I was saying "This furniture shop is HUGE! And there's gonna be a HUGE hole in our wallets later". Bought two mattresses for RM169.00 each and got them to send to our place. Thanks couz!


Went back home and there were nothing else to do anymore. Daniel and I decided to clean the whole house! Super hard work but it was fun la, we were like those small kids playing with water. Ever experienced a waterfall inside the house? Haha. We actually wanted to clean the house because it was super dusty! But you know what? Even after we cleaned the place, it became dusty again after a few hours. Stupid construction area.





And if you noticed, the floor was still wet. OMG, it took forever to dry! sheesh.

One more thing, the haze in KL! *speechless* See it for yourself.



Went out for dinner at McD, went back and started having "guys talk" till we sleep. We slept at the living room thou and it rained at around 3am. It was SUPER COLD! My blanket was blown away just like that! Thunderstorms and lightnings made me took out my phone and started snapping. And something went wrong with the wiring system upstairs, called the agent and complained about that.



Woke up the next morning and my cousin fetched us to TM Point to get some information. Surprisingly, we couldn't apply for Streamyx because there are no more telephone ports in PV6 it seems. So, there's no other choice but to use P1 W1MAX which is a new wireless technology.





I actually did some research when I came back to Ipoh and P1 is indeed cheaper than Streamyx even if we register for 2.4mbps. Went to the P1 booth in Carrefour and got ourselves the registration form. That guy who was in charge there actually explained quite a lot of stuffs and he said that we can go online an hour after registration and all we need is to buy a modem for RM99! Cool! We still need to buy a wireless router of course. Went and got Daniel another DIY table for just RM75.00!!! Regret kau kau man. Went back home and started fixing again. His table was much more complicated than mine thou.

Random shots as usual:





Headed back to Ipoh at 5.00pm but before that, we went to KLCC and got myself the very first cup of Starbucks there!



Next update would probably be on cell time on Saturday and our cell's farewell dinner tonight.

P/S: Photos are being uploaded and Sin Yee, can I get those photos you took using your phone? Thanks! =D

It's Complicated!
Wednesday, May 13, 2009 07:50


The Internet connection has been down for the past few days due to the heavy rain which caused my modem to be out of service and of course, my telephone went out of service too. Great! No calls which is a good thing; my house is more peaceful that way but no Internet is just dreadful! Aaron could not live without going online, everyone knows that. So here I am sitting in my bedroom typing this post and no, I do not have a wireless Internet connection here. I am currently using Microsoft Word so I could just copy and paste them into Blogger when the Internet connection gets back.

Why do I want to have a blog update even when I could not go online? I just feel like it, that’s all. Just felt like “releasing” everything that has happened to me for the past few days. I thought it would make me feel better. So yeah, I do have loads of problems these days and I am serious that these problems are not that simple! Let’s just put those problems aside for now.

Things went well after the previous update which was on my life in Kampar if I’m not mistaken. I went back to Kampar, cleared my room, checked out and my cousin took over my room. I felt sad of course, I’ve been staying in 1595 for like a year now and seriously, I do not want to leave UTAR, Kampar!

A random shot from Kampar:

My family and I made a trip down to KL on Sunday to shift some stuffs there. There were others-Daniel, Jia Huei, Chun Fye and Seng Hoe went too. Yeah, I drove and I hate driving in KL! Went back to the condo and started to do some cleaning as the whole place was like super dusty! And for those who do not know where is this place that I’m gonna stay in, it’s in Melati Utama.

Drove down to this place which looked like “Super Kinta” and it was known as Jusco. Great! Bought myself a portable closet, a study table and a chair and we headed back to Ipoh cause it was quite late that time. So how does my room look like? Well, my room is still kinda empty because I haven’t actually fix those tables and stuffs yet:

I mentioned that I have lots of problems these days. Yeah, my family is currently having some financial problems. I believe things get tougher and tougher especially when I am gonna be studying in KL in two weeks time. I know things are not easy for both my parents. I am actually dying to apply for PTPTN loan and yeah, scholarship is just out of the topic. UTAR scholarship has this requirement where you need to have CGPA 3.9 and above if I’m not mistaken. Even if I get 4.0 for my GPA this semester, my CGPA would only be around 3.6?

And every single thing my family and I do, money comes into the picture. Let’s start with the trip down to KL and many other minor stuffs. I am not talking about my first semester tuition fees yet thou. It’s not easy for my dad thou and I am really trying to help him out but I do not know how! I am already trying not to spend that much, even on my meals. But there are more problems,

I mentioned that my Internet connection went out of service right? It took me 5 days and the problem is not solved yet! I drove to TM point for like so many times, I made like so many complaints and those technicians refused to come. Oh man, do you know how much money I spent on petrol?! And once again, money came into the picture. Fine, those technicians finally came yesterday and they said the phone line was fixed but not my Internet line. I had to call another technician and he came earlier this evening. He said something went wrong with my modem so he exchanged mine with a new one. I should be happy right? I get a new modem for free. No I’m not! He told me something went wrong with those telephone wiring in my house and I had to call another guy. Guess what? He said he’ll be coming on Monday and it’ll cost around RM300 to fix those wiring. RM300?! Life is not hard enough for my dad yeah?

That was about the phone and the Internet. My dad’s car is not in a good condition as well, something went wrong with the brake pads and stuffs. There goes a few hundred bucks! It seems like every single thing needs money now and my new semester hasn’t started yet. Imagine those money I need for the tuition fees and expenses in KL, it’ll make things even tougher for my family. I am praying very hard these few days. I know problems help us to grow right? I’ve been praying so hard that the Lord would just open up a way for my dad. Things aint easy for him and also my family. I am actually trying to save as much as I could right now, I’m trying not to go out unnecessarily and stuffs till things turn out to be better. I’m trying to save up on my meals and stuffs. I even planned to have a part-time job in KL next time. We’ll see how things turn out to be. Hopefully everything would turn out fine after I get the loan and stuffs.

Sometimes I wonder, maybe I shouldn’t have bought those stuffs that I have now. Maybe I should get myself a cheaper handphone and stuffs. I’ll be going down to KL again tomorrow to get myself a mattress. God knows how much I will be spending there tomorrow. Sigh. I do hate myself at times, I couldn’t help out and stuffs. Well, I just hope everything will be fine although these problems I mentioned led to many other problems. We had more arguments in the family thou and they are not making those problems any better.

That’s all about problems I guess. I browsed through the Internet and I tried searching for anything related to PTPTN loans, scholarships and UTAR, Setapak. Trust me, it is not easy for you to search for images related to the Setapak Campus! Almost all the results are related to the Kampar Campus and now, I do not even know how the Setapak Campus looks like! Once again, I do not feel like leaving UTAR, Kampar. Everything seems to be just fine there; a nice campus, suitable study environment, cool facilities and most importantly, CHEAPER EXPENSES! Sometimes I do not feel like going to Setapak. Who cares if I have a nice and luxurious place to stay in KL?




I just don’t feel like leaving Kampar. If it wasn’t because of friends, nothing would have stopped me from staying here in Kampar. I always believed that everything happens for a reason and I know I am gonna study in Setapak for a reason. I was just thinking bout those times I had in Kampar. Surprisingly, I am thinking bout my assignments and the preparations for finals last semester and I found some photos in my phone.

This is actually the draft for our Web Page Design assignment and we came up with a Web Site which was 90% similar!




Parents took me to Kopitiam yesterday before we went to Maybank to check on my SSPN account. Some random shots from there as well:





Till the next update, take care and God Bless!
