Thank God

I thank God for giving me parents

Who are caring and understanding

Who have patience in taking care of the three of us

Three different personalities

Yet they manage to please each one of us.

I thank God for giving me two siblings

A sister who argues with me very often

But everything that she did I know she cares about me

And a brother who is caring even at young age.

I thank God for giving me such a wonderful family

I believe I was not born into this family accidentally

It was beautifully planned by God

To let me know Him during my childhood.

I thank God for giving me this guy

Who loves me and appreciates me

Who gives me confidence to transcend myself

And most importantly

He loves God and honour Him in everything he does.

I thank God for giving me a best friend

That did not believe in Him at first

But now manage to guide me at my time of lost

With the words of God.

I thank God for giving me relatives and friends

Who walk with me through my childhood and school life

My working life and my church life

Whom I can share and solve my problems with.

I thank God for changing me

From a quiet and low self-confidence person

To become a more cheerful and active person

A person who believes that nothing is impossible with God.

Lord please continue to guide me to have faith in You

Let me trust You in everything I do

Guide me never to be lacking in zeal

But keep my spiritual fervour, serving you Lord.

Lord please gives me strength

Give me the strength to face difficulties in this world

Lead me to the path of your purpose

For I know You have great plans in my life.

Lord please forgive the people

Please forgive us from our trespasses

As we do not know what we are doing

Only through You Lord we see light and hope

As Jesus spoke to the people,

“I am the light of the world.

Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness,

But will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)

“For God so loved the world

That He gave His one and only Son

That whoever believes in Him shall not perish

But have eternal life.” (John 3: 16)

To the friends out there

Do you want to accept this free grace?

I have made a rightful choice

A choice that I will never regret

To believe in Lord Jesus Christ

To accept Him as my saviour

To trust Him

To honour Him in everything I do.

  

大学美好的回忆~

三年又过了。大学生活快要结束了。本来感觉没什么的。但时间越靠近我要离开的日子，我就越觉得很不舍得。刚来到的时候，一个人也不认识。幸好看到有个中学同校的朋友，Marilyn，也刚到，就觉得感谢主有个认识的。过后，教会的牧师告诉我有个 KK 人也来这里念。不知道是谁，我却很大胆的联络那个人，秀奇，因为知道他也是巴色会的，所以就有共同话题能够讲。

我，秀奇还有跟他一起来的朋友，文骏，一起去到教会认识了很多人。很多很有爱心的人。很多都是 Sabah 来的，感觉很亲切。

Orientation 的时候一直注意到一个很吵的另一组。看见一男一女（Delvene）一天到晚都在大声的笑，大声的讲话。这一男一女因为太吵了，所以几天的 orientation 好像几乎去到那里都看到他们。Orientation 完了，没有同课朋友的我第一天上课，坐在课室外面等老师来的时候，既然又给我看见那很吵的女生坐在我很远的对面。那时还在想，不是那么巧，这女生也跟我念同一课吧。Lecture 的时候太多人，没有认识到朋友。在那时候，我选了下午的 tutorial。进到 tutorial 课室，很奇妙的又看到那女生，她旁边没有人，我就坐过去。当天，老师叫我们找一个pair来问对方的资料。结果，就跟那女生同组。我们就问对方的名字，电话，等等。结果发现我们有个很奇妙的共同点。那就是我电话号码后面是 9969，她的是 9996。就这样认识了他。

第二天上课，又看见她。她问我这一课打算选哪一天的 tutorial。结果我们每一课打算选的都是同一天。哇！好像有点恐怖。我跟她说了那故事后，她说原来我一直 ‘bio’ 她。=.=” 哈哈。不是啦。我就觉得很奇妙。一切都是上帝的安排。这朋友就这样跟我一起走了三年。我在她身上学了很多东西。她令我在班上变得比较敢说话。她令我学到 presentation 的时候不用背词讲话。当老师在班上问问题的时候，她知道我会答，她会鼓励我大声地回答老师。她是我这三年里最有投契的朋友。

中间我们也认识了一个朋友，Joie。这朋友很特别。他的思想都很乐观。不会像我们酱，担心这样，担心那样的。她在其中一个课室坐在我和 Del 的后面，我们就这样熟了。我们三个就一起经历了很多事情一直到一起拿 final year project。在这 fyp 我真的学了好多好多东西。乐观的 Joie 虽然有时候 blur blur 的，但她在心理上帮了我们不少。我也觉得在这里面我们有面对开心的，也有面对不开心的，但我们的友情变得越来越深。本来觉得如果毕业应该没什么，但现在觉得我真的会不舍得她们。谢谢你们的照顾。谢谢你们的关心。谢谢你们的帮忙。谢谢你们给我大学美好的回忆。也不忘了班上 last minute 熟的班友，谢谢你们给我这 last minute 的美好回忆。我知道有些人看不懂，但算了。我的谢谢和祝福已经在 steamboat 那天说了。哈哈！

说完同课的朋友。现在说同家的朋友。本来我，秀奇还有文骏打算三个人从 hostel 搬出来。找到房子了，但我又担心只有我一个女生好像有点不方便。很奇妙的，秀奇有两个朋友，晓韵和俊良也在找房子。本来想住一个人的房间，但看到他们好像很可怜找不到房子，又加上我一个女生的不方便，就叫了他们一起搬过来。叫了晓韵和我一起同房。俊良就住一个人的房间。秀奇和文骏就找了 Gary 一起住三个人的房间。我们六个就好像一家人这样，跟他们在一起感觉好舒服，好开心。慢慢，这六个成员的家庭加了镇安，后来 Alan。最近 Alison 很常来，好像她也住在这里酱。她应该干脆搬过来。哈哈。文骏的弟弟，Frankie，今年刚来，住在隔壁，很常跑过来。这样好像组合了十个成员的家庭。哈哈！这一家人，我真的很不舍得他们。真的很谢谢你们一直以来的照顾，关心，还有很多很多说不完的感激。

也不忘记教会的弟兄姐妹，涂牧师，涂师母，洪教师，余慧姐，信慧姐，秀妮，金星，丽云，Sheena，Rebecca，秀奇，文骏，James，晓英，Ben，Stella，Auntie 素莲，Max，俐蒨，Howard。谢谢你们的照顾和关怀。除了这两句我都不懂用什么字好了。总之就是感谢你们。也谢谢少年们还有儿童们给我一个当你们老师的美好经历还有回忆。到现在我还是不喜欢当老师。也不适合当老师。哈哈哈！

还有我这里没有提到的，但认识我，或照顾过我的，我也要诚心的感谢你们。

好了。感谢了那么多人，到头来，最重要的，还是要感谢上帝。若没有祂，这一切的感谢都不成效。若没有祂，我都不会认识大家。若没有祂，我也不会有这美好的回忆。最重要的，若没有祂，我现在还是以前的那个很静很静的人，默默地坐在一个角落。在路加福音11:10，“耶稣说，因为凡祈求的就得着，寻找的就寻见，叩门的就给他开门。”这里告诉我们说我们若想要什么，只要我们求，上帝必定给我们。但是我们也要记得所求的要合神心意。不要为了自己的益处而求。如果我们所求的是合神心意的，他必多多地加倍给我们。上帝已经多多的加倍给我了。加倍给我数不清的恩典。是超越我所预料的。感谢神。我相信神也会一样多多的加倍给你们。愿上帝赐福给大家！希望你们在日后的生活都能够继续努力。希望我们大家都能够成功。加油！我会继续在祷告中记念你们。也希望我们有机会再见！当然毕业典礼我一定会来。哈哈！

好吧。晚了。该去睡觉了。明天全部考完试又要继续去玩了！在我踏入社会工作之前，一定要玩够本！哈哈！晚安！

对了。你们应该读到又累又闷了吧。哈哈。对不起太长了。看下照片吧。

这一张虽然 Joie 的 blog 已经放了，本来想找另一张，但我找不到一个比这个更好的照片。我太喜欢这一张了。哈哈。Joie，对不起咯，跟你一样。哈哈哈哈！

Final presentation 完了！

很难找到人齐的照片。全部都在晓韵的相机。晓韵，快点 upload 照片！哈哈哈！

双亲节快乐！

Winter Semester result out lu~~~

I couldn't believe what I saw. Thank God for my result!!

An anxious day

This afternoon, I went to Student Information Centre (SIC) to get my validity sticker. In the meantime, I requested the staff to check whether they have exempted my MPW subjects which are Moral Studies and Malaysian Studies, just in case they didn't due to their bad management. What a shock when she told me that I have not been exempted from these subjects. As I remember, during the registration in August 2009, I gave the letter of passing the MPW subjects to the person that entertained me and that person took it, settled it and returned it back to me without any written or printed confirmation. I thought it was settled. I even went to SIC to ask for confirmation and one of the staff that time told me that if I had let them see the letter, then it will be okay. She didn't use the computer to check. Since she answered me confidently, then I supposed that it will be okay because I was just a new student there knowing nothing about Swinburne's history. However, today SIC told me that I have not been exempted?? The staff asked me about the person who entertained me that day. How am I suppose to remember since I was only a new student that time? My friend told me that probably is the marketing department and I came to know that SIC never communicate with marketing department even though they are working in the same university. I was so angry with them and at the same time feared that I might have to retake the subjects. I told myself that I will never ever trust marketing department anymore.

The SIC staff asked me to submit the exemption form together with the photocopy of the letter and they will get the approval from the coordinator of MPW. However, I was still worry because getting the approval might need a week or two. I need to worry for so many days? What if the coordinator doesn't approve? I have only two semesters left and definitely this semester I couldn't enrol anymore as the enrolment has already past and I can only take one MPW per semester. That means I have to delay my graduation? I was so worried. Anyhow, I have to solve this problem. I don't want to retake it! It's a silly thing to do! So, I decided to take a shorter and more reliable step which is to find the coordinator with the documents needed. From the start of the incident, I never stop praying. When I went to the coordinator's room, she was not there. I continued to pray hoping that I could find her. After a while, I decided to find a person in the marketing department which I heard that he might be able to help. After a few steps away from the coordinator's office, I saw the coordinator coming down the stairs walking back to her office. Thank God.

When I asked her to confirm that she is the MPW coordinator, she was so kind and invited me to go into her office, sat down and talked slowly. She sounds so nice. Haha. Then, I told her about my problems. After she saw the letter, she took out a list of IPTS school and started searching for Institut Sinaran where I took my MPW. It was there! Then she told me it is okay, she will approve it, but what I need to do is submit it to the SIC because only they have the chop to confirm that my document is real, and after that only she will be able to approve it. She even told me that it is good that I did some follow up. She asked me to continue following up to see whether the SIC will send me email about the approval, and if I still haven't get the email after maybe one or two weeks, I will have to ask them. What a relief after getting such confirmation. So, I did what she said and now I am waiting for the email. Again, I couldn't stop thanking God.

By the way, I feel sorry for the SIC staff. Everything that is handled by the marketing department, when anything happens, SIC have to take the blame. I kept complaining that time and showed her my unsatisfied and "sienz" look. I think she felt frustrated because at first, she talked nicely. But after that, the reaction on her face changed and she started to talk seriously to me (with some fake smile) about how am I able to solve the problem. Haha. Sorry ba. =P

I learn the moral of the story that I should always do some follow up especially in Swinburne because I could not trust their management. They never communicate with each other. Anyway, I still and will always trust God for He did and will do great things in my life. This incident reminds me that how powerful, strong and great God He is.

He listens to my prayer

This afternoon, I was going to prepare my lunch. Suddenly the electricity was out. I thought there was some problem with the main switch. I went down to check but it was not. I was a bit frustrated and was going to change my plan to eat at school. I didn't wish to go to school that early because I need to study. I had not been studying for the whole weekend. Then I prayed hoping that the electricity will resume soon. After that, I continue to study. One minute haven't pass, I noticed the electricity had resume. I didn't notice when did it resume. It was too fast. I couldn't stop thanking God and then went down to cook for my lunch.  

太奇妙的一天

昨天是上课的第二天。三点半下午的课令我有好奇的感觉。因为这是 final year project 的开始，也就是说 software engineering project A. 上课的时候，老师叫我们抽签来看自己在哪一组。那时我们真的是很紧张，比拿成绩还要紧张。我就一直的祷告，希望我们可以在同一组。但是我又矛盾的跟神说，一切都跟随神的旨意。虽然说这一句是满怕的，可是我不可以跟着自己的意愿而祷告吧。就跟神说如果我真的是跟其他人同组，那就无所谓吧，一切都跟随主的旨意。我相信主会安排最好的给我。我一直重复的祷告，还是有担心的感觉。当我抽的时候，我选都不要选，我就看到哪一张纸，就拿那一张。好奇妙的结果，既然我跟我的朋友拿到同一组。接下来就到另一个朋友抽。很不好的，我还去教她偷看。没想到，他真的有这么做。也很奇妙的，当我和第一个朋友抽的时候，老师是站在我们面前的，但是当那另一个朋友抽的时候，老师走去另一边。那她就有机会这么做。虽然心是有点不好过，但是到最后，我们还是同组了。做了就做了。没办法改变。就只有求主怜悯吧。也感谢神让我们能够同组。实在是太奇妙了。神的恩典实在是够我们用。

Trip to KK

Went to KK on 30 January. Reached home at around 6.30pm on Sunday. It was a tiring weekend. Almost fall sick but still can go through it happily.

It was Saturday. Early in the morning, 14 church members, including Daddy and I, gathered at my house at around 3.30am. After a short prayer, we started to head to KK at 4am. In the gospel car, we practiced the Hakka mountain song that we are going to present. We reached BCCM Likas at around 12.30pm.

Busy decorating.

Time to hang it up.

Done!!

The recycle launching started at around 2pm. Many faces with smiles on it shows that our presentation was not bad. Hehe.

This was my part in Hakka.

**************************************

上帝托付我们看顾地球

因为自私不理又不顾

搞到地球乌烟瘴气

**************************************

After the launching, I went out with Bii.

The next day Sunday worship, I thought I can meet my choir friends at BCCM Likas but end up we went to BCCM Foh Sang because the worship there starts earlier.

After lunch, we started our journey back to Sandakan. On the way back, at Kundasang, we saw a hill and we decided to climb it.

The cement was made to avoid the landslide.

There we are, reaching the so-called top. But....

There's somemore!! OMG~!!

Finally, we reached the top. Sooooo tired~~ But it was our best achievement in January 2010.

The only 4 of us reached the top....wakakaka!!!

That was all about my trip.

By the way, I got this from him. Thanks Bii. Hehe.
