Lesson learnt

Heya! I learnt a few lessons today.



Number 1
What happens in the morning determines your day.

I slept very late last night and was sleepy in the morning. Without knowing, I made my mom angry by being unfair to her. Then in the afternoon, I encountered a client that was being unfair to me. So next time, I'll start my day right. First thing I will do when I open my eyes is to commit my day to the Lord.

Number 2
Good news are better said in the morning and leave the bad news at night.

This is pretty random. Was thinking what I did wrong to my mom and thought of this. Good news in the morning will make a person's day. He/She might even share the good news with someone else. That person will light up the room without realising it. Bad news in the morning will lead to more accidents on the road or leave a person in a daze thinking about the bad news. Dangerous. On the other hand, bad news at night will help that person to think it over and sleep on it. Tears will aid in the sleeping part. This is just my theory. But, note that bad news will just be bad news no matter when you say it. Seek God about it.

Hehe. Take care and God bless! I hope that you have a great day ahead!

Surprise!

Boom! I'm back! Well, I've been on a blogging break. Haven't heard of it? Well, I just created it then. Haha...

I'm currently studying a 6-month Diploma course in Hairdressing in Kimarie while taking an extra Diploma in Hairdressing from City and Guilds. This internationally recognized certificate has taken most of my time now. Have to cut down on internet usage and tv time.(Aww...)But, it is worthwhile. I gained more knowledge and experience. I am required to practice more on my skills. Yes, I have cut client's hair. Enough till I can't count with my fingers. Haha...I also had a chance to watch a hair show. My classmates participated in it. They took a lot of time and effort to make it happen. Besides that, I get to work as a shampoo girl at 2 salons. I really enjoyed my time with them.

Here's some pictures!

Me, Victoria and Wei Siang


Victoria and Wei Siang. I have to admit that the angle was good. Haha

Jason and his PSP. Don't play play

My colleagues!



That's all I can show so far.

DUMC youth started a new series. Its on attitude check. We learned about submission today. It may be submitting to your parents, leaders, teachers, authorities and people older than us. Of course we have to firstly, submit to God. Hmm...How to submit to others? By loving one another and being humble. Obey is the key. God called us to submit to one another. We can obey and not submit, but we can't submit without obeying.

I am gonna obey my parents and go to bed now. Haha...Have a great day! Take care and God bless!

Miss my laughter?

Heya! Its been sometime since I posted something. Haha. I kind of have a daily routine for the last few weeks. I go to class in the morning, read till late late night and wake up the next morning to go to class. I finished the Twilight series and started on Inkheart trilogy. I'm taking a break from it. That's why I'm posting something.

Here's a picture of my perming. I won't call it perfection, but its my handiwork.=p


My classmates in the Academy are really fun to be with. Haha...When I laugh my 'hehe' laugh, they will copy me. It just makes me laugh more. I really thank God that I had a chance to meet them. We even went for a little outing to our instructor's house. I have never sat in a car with 2 woofers and 2 other ones blasting. The volume is only 21 and the whole car is vibrating(or maybe its just me)

At first I thought I wouldn't fit in. Language is kind of a barrier for me.(Banana girl) But then I got to know them more. Through their actions and their kindness mostly. I tried to talk to them and be myself. Bringing my hehe's along. I can't say that I'm close friends with them. But, it takes time for friendship to grow. Like growing a plant that is precious and beautiful. I think that being accepted is first being yourself. If you accept who you are, people will learn to accept you. Well, of course change is good. If change makes you a better person. Every single person is special and unique in their own way. That makes you, you!

Oh ya! I'm going to Taman S.E.A. CF Camp 2009! Whee! Can't wait! I'll be playing with Raycee's hair doing free time. Whee!

My Chinese 'Niu' Year.

I had a great Chinese New Year. How about yours? Although it is not over yet, I'll blog about it.

Pre-Chinese New Year
Decoration is essential. The house must be painted red and gold. There must be lucky bamboo's and long firecrackers hanging outside the door. Haha...Nah! We believe in simple and sweet. My cousin, my sis and I did this...

Its made from 'angpow' packets. We had a wide spread of food. Since we are Malaysians, we have curry chicken and chocolate cake with alcohol in it (I'm not sure what kind of alcohol, but, they say there is) along with the Chinese dishes.

This year we all gathered to play card games. I never laughed so much in such a long time. I started hiccuping after awhile. Of course there are fried and steam 'lin kou'. The sticky and sweet dessert. My favourite. Haha...I love reunion meals.

Chinese New Year Day 1
We went to 3 different houses to have our meals today. Breakfast at home, Lunch at Aunty Kathy's place, Dinner at Grandmother's place and Dessert at the Aunty Oi's place.



Chinese New Year Day 2
Road trip! Haha...15 of us travelled to Port Dickson to visit one of my aunt. She welcomed us with open arms. She cooked a lovely meal for us and baked 5 different kinds of cakes for us. I have enough cakes to last me the whole year. It was so good.(Too bad I didn't take a photo of the cakes. Enjoying it too much) She is a wonder woman. My cousins and I played card games and football. We had a wonderful time playing football near the beach. (You can feel the breeze under the warm sun) I almost scored a goal. We also accidentally kicked the football over the fence and into the sea. I had to slide under the fence to get it back. It wasn't easy to come back up as it was to slide down. Haha...Zach had a taste of freedom as we let him run in the compound.








No matter what you do, do it with joy in your hearts. Take care and God bless! = )

Post number 80!

Hey everyone!
Spending time away from home? I know some of you are going to enjoy the mouth-watering food tonight. I just got back from Genting Highlands. Oneday, when I have money, I will buy a house in the highlands. Hehe. Sounds like child's dream. But, one thing's for sure, no matter how many times I ride the cable car up to the peak, I'll still be shaking in my shoes. Its so high up.

Oh yeah! I signed up for Facebook. I am still lost in the mechanics of it. I would really appreciate it if someone could please help me. Add me as your friend too! =)

I'm going to my relatives house to prepare for tonight's big dinner. I can't wait to see my cousins and eat the delicious food. Have a great time everyone! Take care and God bless! Have safe journey! Show humility and be a blessing to the people around you.

Charmaine is going to drive? *gasp*

Heya!

Its been some time since I blogged. Lask week I went for the talk for Undang-Undang Jalan raya. Yups, its the 5 hours talk. I went with Yuen Yang. I met up with Zhe Kai too. Its nice to meet my classmates. The fun thing during the 5 hours class is looking at Yuen Yang's face. Its totally stoned. He was looking at the person that was giving the talk, as if he was paying full attention to him. But, when we laugh, he doesn't. When I ask him something, he will ask me back 'what?'. In fact, he wasn't listening to that person. Hehe. I survived the 5 hours talk without falling asleep. I took the next week studying for the Undang test I took last Saturday. It was a long queue. I waited 4 hours for my turn. I was really anxious. The passing mark is 42. Sadly, many people that did the test had 41. I didn't want to fail the test. I would have to pay RM50 to retake it and wait another 4 hours. I prayed very hard. Guess what I got? I passed with 47 over 50. Whee! Praise the Lord! I passed the eye test too. Its to see whether a person is colour blind or not. Yup yup. One tip for people that wants to take undang test. Bring your MP3 or a book to entertain yourself. There won't be many chairs for you to sit, so, wear a comfortable outfit. Most importantly, study. Don't waste your time and money. Hehe...Of course, pray and count on Jesus. He will give you peace like He did for me. The driving test is another test of faith. Well, I think the the person evaluating me needs more faith. Haha...

The next day, I was supposed to go for the bengkel. Its 6 hours talk. Unfortunately, the man that was supposed to fetch me to the centre missed me. I waited an hour for him. Oh well, I guess I have to go for it after Chinese New Year.

Speaking about Chinese New Year, I want to wish you all a Happy Chinese New Year. Although it is celebrated by the Chinese, the values of being together as a family and putting away the differences is important. So, I will pray for your safety as you go back to your hometowns to celebrate the Chinese New Year. I hope that you will realise the importantce of being a family. Take a good look at the faces of your family members. Remember the good times all of you shared. The silly things that they sometimes do, the laugher you share with them and having to know that you are chosen for this family. Whether the gathering will be a wonderful memory or not, its in your hands and how you make of it. Take care and God bless! Happy Chinese New Year to you and your family! = )
