eve of eve

its the eve of new years eve.. and i'm at work! haha..

well, now in office, quite a number of people took leave today and for some reason, there is no mood to work.. feels like.. new year eve. hahaha..

anyway, as mentioned in my previous post already, there's alot of thinking to do for the new year but i'm always grateful for whatever that has happened this year. alot of experiences and first times (for food especially), alot of happy and exciting news, also sad and deep thinking news. but whatever that happens, i'll give praise to God that has always knows what to do in my life.
my resolution for the new year? well.. havent really thought about it.. but looking back at my reflection for my year this year.. i think i'll try to achieve it again.. like trying to jog at least once a week! hahaha.. well, whats your's? ;o)


".. No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him" 1 corinthians 2:9

maximum blurness...

taking a midnight bus to reach kl at 645am and to come to work by 9am.. bad plan.. very bad plan.. result of it : maximum blurness!

thats the state of my mind thw whole day at work yesterday, altho i only found out after lunch that i could have taken the whole week off! *sigh* oh well.. things happen. anyway, was back home for a few days and its was a good christmas.
anywayz, during the week off, i had alot of time with my mom and dad. talked alot about my career and my plans. well, there is alot of talking and discussion and that left me thinking alot. aside from that, was talking to a friend and was talking about the past. gosh, didnt realise that so much was revealed this christmas holiday.
well, alot have been talked and really, alot of thinking is needed.. especially for the coming new year. but.. will really need to pray about it..

hopefully something new happens next year.. ;o)

Oh in the end
You're gonna find that strength that lies within
And in the end
You're gonna get there no matter where you've been
'Cause in the end, well
The one truth is love will always win
And the hand of God will guide you
Just believe and let Him in

(extract from eric benet - in the end)

christmas to me..

the tree is up,
the lights are lighten;
the mood is around,
every face is brighten

presents bought and given,
christmas carols echoing the mall;
red, white and green,
is this christmas, after all?

is there more to this celebration?
is there a reason to the joy?
is it just a family gathering?
or is it just giving out toys!

but reflecting back 2000 years ago
on a babe born in a manger;
you might heard of him
cause he's no stranger

he was an ordinary man
but he came for a reason,
to bring a gift to us
for us to share this yultide season.

he came to give the gift of life
and to be a friend to all,
he's name is Jesus
God's only Son given to us, y'all.

he came on earth,
that we may have peace and joy,
so, lets celebrate this Christmas
more than just with toys.

-- merry christmas to you all

food.. glorious food..

have you ever think of all the food that you've eaten for the year. well, i dont. hahaha! until i bought a digicam, i started taking pictures of almost anything under the sun (provided my battery dont die on me first!).

first and foremost.. i've got to admit that i have put on some weight this year. shall not say how much extra have i gain but enough for some of my friends to see the difference since i left college till now. with all the food that i've been brought to try out, its no suprise. hahaha..

lets see.. i've not been to chili's so often in a year before. well, in the previous project that i was assigned to, i have been to chili's easily more than 5 times! not calculating the other times i've been there on weekends with friends. but the bottomless tostada chips and drinks managed to attract many of us.. *grin* well, there's also other 'first-time' places that i've been this year..
> first time attending a vegetarian wedding
> first time eatting buffet at mandarin oriental hotel
> first time eating suckling pig
> first time eating austrian style escargot (or snails!)
> first time eating in victoria station
> first time eating a RM10 prawn noodle (gosh!)
> first time eating bario rice (the best!)

so, yes.. i have been well taken care by my friends around me. haha..

but i guess the best experience i've had concerning food this year is the choice to fast coffee for a mission trip i was going to attend. james and i decided to go on the coffee fast for about.. 43 days, i think. man.. it is seriously tough but it was worth it. to persevere on with the coffee fasting and to continue to encourage one another was really an experience. and i believe the outcome from the fasting in the mission trip was just over-whelming.. to me, personally. but of cuz, when we got back from the trip, we are back to drinking coffee.. hehe

but i guess the best food of all is the food that can never make us hungry anymore. the bread of life. ultimately, without the bread of life, i could be spiritually starving while my physical body is feeding on all the best food the world could offer.

well, i'm still feeding on it..

just one of those happy post

isnt today a wonderful day..

the weather is just cooling, had chinese dishes (fish, chicken, veg..) for lunch and super full after that. but aside from that, i've received so many good news today from all over.

1. my parents arrived safely from australia after 5 weeks
2. someone in my family is pregnant
3. saw some pictures of my 1st neice
4. my friend just bought a new sony ericsson w800i (which i managed to psycho him to get it)
5. wai nyan's birthday's today ('happy birthday, dude!')

but none from me yet. hmm.. oh well, all those good news makes me feel happy too..! hahaa.. anywayz, praise God for His goodness!

well, i guess a nice hot cup of black coffee was good in this morning was a good start ;o)

it really is..

its really that feeling again..

the year end feeling again. christmas is near, new year is coming, christmas carols are playing everywhere.. and for some spoilt reason, there's the back to school promotion going on too.. imagine a kid, getting ready for christmas, with all the presents and how that kid is going to play around with his/her friend then suddenly.. his/her mom shouts 'come here, try out this uniform, see if fit you or not'. sheesh... hhahaa

anywayz, yes, its that time of the year again. reflecting on the whole year and being amazed of the events that took place this year. often there are so many events that i didnt realise that the event took place this year when i thought was last year. hehe.. but it is always fun to slowly look back..

so here's my plan for the next few weeks..

i'm planning to reflect on my year this year. on the events, food, people and of cuz God. will slowly go by topics.. feel free to join me in reflecting this year. ;)

and as we move forward for next year, lets keep the past as memories.
