A Very Nice Perak Trip - Part1

November 2nd, 2006 by amypuay

It was a long time ever since I joined a trip organised by my close frens. Finally, on 21/10/2006, I had d chance to go for a 5 days + 4 nites trip (KL + Perak) wif my good bro n sis (hehe, only 1 bro wif another 3 sis in Christ). Frankly speaking, every1 of us had a fantastic time playing around togede (",)

21/10/2006 (Saturday)

Guan & I sat a bus to Kluang at 10:30 a.m. to meet Siew. Guan had called me 2 double chk d timing wif me since I was d 1 2 buy d bus tic. Hihi, he was afraid tat he might wake up late d nex morning & miss d bus, hence asked me 2 giv him a morning call on d nex day, ard 8am. Whn I remembered 2 call him, it was already 8:30a.m. I was so "gan jiong" : oh no, late already!! duno whether he is stil on d bed or not!!! Thank GOD, whn I called him, his voice sounded like he has taken a bath & very fresh already.

But whn I reach d Larkin terminal ard 10:15a.m., he was no wher 2 b found… I then received a sms frm him telling me tat he might b late 4 d bus, no need 2 wait 4 him, he wil sit another bus if d bus is not going 2 wait 4 him. Alas, at 10:30pm sharp, whn d bus driver started d bus engine, Guo Xing helped me 2 call Guan again. Luckily, he said tat he was already in d terminal, searching 4 d bus. After knowing d platform number, he managed 2 find us in d bus.

Whn we were on d way 2 kluang, we chat 4 so many things…but mainly abt our career. Knowing tat he was actualy so lucky 2 get 2 travel 2 so many countries like China, etc. D bus seems 2 b very silent after we stop talking cz we r d only person chit chatting!!! I was so tired until fall asleep whereas Guan still very "jing shen", he stay awake during d whole journey 2 watch King Kong which was being played in d TV.

Whn we almost reaching d terminal in Kluang, we called Siew. She instructed us 2 stop at 1 of d bus stop b4 even reaching d terminal. Luckily we still able 2 stop at d correct bus stop. Less than 10 minutes, she drove her mini kelisa 2 fetch us. While Guan & me were still in d bus jz now, we were chatting abt : oh no, nvr sat in Siew’s car b4.. duno whether her skill is gd enuff 2 drive or not.. like a bit scared… But who knows, she drive very very well (",) Even much more btr than me n Guan. or is it becoz of d AUTO gear? haha, nobody knows.

Siew brought us 2 hv lunch since it was almost 12pm. She recommended us d Thai Tomyam fish + rice. Wow, delicious!! Siew, thx 4 d treat ya. Then, she was rushing 2 fetch her bro & mum. After tat, we only knew tat she hvnt pack her things!!! She brought us back 2 her rental hs, n we waited 4 her 2 pack her things then hv a bath. Meanwhile, oh no, Zhen was waiting 4 us at d Ayer Itam Tol. Sori la, Zhen, we don mean 2 let u wait 4 so long…. We had 2 go 2 d photo shop 2 load our camera, go 2 d medical shop 2 buy some medication, go 2 7 eleven 2 buy drinks n bread, etc.

Finally, we were heading towards Ayer Itam 2 fetch Zhen. She was waiting ther 4 quite some time, I guess. Cz she gave us so many "follow-up" calls, 2 ask wher r we??!! Whn reaching ther, we were so "pai seh"! She was not waiting alone. Well, her parents togede wif her grandma were sitting on d car waiting 4 us…. luckily Zhen was not so frustrated afterall, she stil gave us a very warm smile. Her parents too. Zhen parents even warned her not 2 drive too fast if she got d chance 2 become d driver in tis trip.

So, off we go, heading towards KL 2 meet Yu. Yu was waiting 4 us anxiously, sms us wher r we so tat she can roughly know wat time we wil b arriving. Siew & Zhen took turns 2 drive Siew’s Wira while Guan & I took turn to….ZZzzz. Haha, cz we dare not touch Siew’s car due 2 our poor skill. Finally reached KL ard 5pm++. Guan called Yu 2 ask 4 d direction jz in case we lost our way. Yu instructed us 2 stop at a petrol kiosk n wait 4 her 2 lead d way.

At last, we saw Yu’s white Wira. I accompanied Yu & d rest follow Siew’s car. We reached Yu’s hs in Cheras safely. Hm..as soon as we entered Yu’s hs, she told us tat her mom is preparing dinner 4 us. Wow, we were so "pai seh" at tat time!! 3 of us tried 2 go 2 d kitchen 2 help, but everyting seems 2 b ready. We took turns 2 bathe then start having dinner wif Yu & her family.

So many dishes!!! We finished it all…. After tat, we went to Bintang Walk in Yu’s car. We actualy went in 2 Starhill n whn we were going out, it rains heavily. We left wif no choice but 2 enter back d building. We walked ard until notice some of d unique design of those Cafes n took a lot of pic. D most un4getable design was d ladies toilet. Siew, Zhen, Yu & me was like, wow, so Special!! We even took pic in d toilet, hehe. Then, after tired of walking, we went 2 source 4 d most economic cafes 2 hv a cup of drinks each. Yu was very clever 2 found 1; The Bakers. We had cakes n juices, & it was Guan’s treat. Yummy, yummy! Then we chat 4 very long ther, while waiting 4 d rain 2 stop.

Until we thought tat it was realy late already, we decided 2 went off. Mana tahu, d rain still hvnt stop. All of us "chong" togede 2 get d car in d c/park. Luckily not so wet, although we did get wet ;P Yu was d driver at tat nite cz all of us were not familiar wif KL. Then, we went bek 2 Yu’s hs & hv an early sleep tat nite…cz we plan 2 depart at 6am d nex day…

Advise from a True Fren…

October 26th, 2006 by amypuay

I am so hapi 4 stil having a bunch of true frens ard me. They wil giv me advise n their main motive is not 2 c me being down… Thank GOD 4 giving me those frens 2 cheer me up whn i was so desperate n dunno wat 2 do. recently i receiv a very encouraging msg frm my long distance gd pal. tis is wat she share wif me:

let the bygone be bygone.u shouldnt be bothered with all this shits, esp if its after so many years. n the so called truth sumhow has been altered or manipulated in order to make u feel better or feel worse (depending on that person’s intention) so the truth isnt that accurate afterall.for me,u should live in the present. cherish the past but not too absord into it, afterall its all history, thats nothing much u could change. if u r too dwell into it, seeking answer for all the whys and what-ifs, it will bring more heartaches to u. as a fren, i want u to be happy. i m staying abroad for quite sum time now. n it really matters the most to me to stay happy always.in life, nothing can bog u down, except u let it. think abt it. take care.

I think tis is a very gd advise n i shall try to follow.

4get bt d past, treasure d present, plan 4 d future.

To Know…or Not To Know?!

October 26th, 2006 by amypuay

Tis questions puzzled me 4 quite some time… especially whn i knew sth abt a person & i dunno whether is it btr 2 keep it frm him/her or 2 tel him/her d truth… Only until recently, i was tat "her". Frens tend 2 hide d truth frm me, then finally, reveal it 2 me.

i duno whether which 1 is btr 2 myself… mayb it is a matter of time… mayb it is gd 4 me not 2 know d truth few yrs ago… then it is gd 4 me 2 know d truth recently…. or is it d other way round? i believe tat my frens hv gd intention 2 hide frm me previously, 2 make me feel btr. & then, they think tat its time 4 me 2 know d truth now… 2 help me frm being too foolish in terms of treating ppl ard me.

now only i experienced wat is called "being blinded by everybody" & "acting so foolishly in front of those ppl who knows wat actualy has taken place"… but, it is stil not too late 4 me 2 know wat happened… i m glad tat my frens r very thoughtful & do watever is d best 2 me… but, ther r stil some frens who r so cold blooded!!!!!

Men VS Women

October 18th, 2006 by amypuay

I don hv d idea of looking into more details regarding d differences between men & women until yesterday whn i listened to d talk at d church. D talk was presented by a doctor & I think tat watever he said is quite true!!

I tried 2 search 4 d info which he had extracted frm d internet & manage to find part of it as below:

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MEN & WOMEN
1. A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

2. Men wake up as good-looking as when they went to bed.
Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

3. A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he wants.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn’t want.

4. A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn’t.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won’t change, and she does.

5. There are two times when a man doesn’t understand a woman.
Before and after marriage.

6. A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.

7. To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.

8. Any married man should forget his mistakes.
There’s no use in two people remembering the same thing!

9. A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

10. Women look at a wedding as the beginning of romance,
while men look at a wedding as the ending of romance.

Happy B’day 2 u…

September 28th, 2006 by amypuay

28 September… a very meaningful day! A date of birth 4 so many ppl ard d world & among all those ppl, I hv known FOUR.

1st person - My dearest little niece, REECE PUAY (",) She is indeed a very cute & adorable gal at d age of 6. Well, she looks exactly like me whn I was at her age. Wif small eyes, talkative mouth, smiling lips, cheerful character, etc. She is 1 of d most person whom I missed so much whn I m working in S’pore all these years…

2nd person - My beloved bf, AARON WOON. He is older than me by 2 yrs old but stll pursung his Diploma in Southern College. Although he is not tat gd lookiGfbirthday3aang, but he is a very caring & gentle man. Hmm, but sometimes he could b very naggy!!!

3rd person - My bf’s mum. She is a wonderful "to be" mother-in-law, hehe. Very frenly & understanding. But she is still not a Christian. Hope tat ther’s a suitable time 4 me 2 share d gospel wif her.

4th person - My long time nvr meet ex-churchmate, RM7.80. Well, tat’s his nickname. His name is actually TAN TECK HWA. Sms him yesterday but no reply frm him. I wonder whether he stil use d same hp number? I hv a deep impression of him cz he is once my guardian angel!!

Stress!

September 27th, 2006 by amypuay

Mouse       I hv a very deep impression of d defination 4 STRESS since I hv jz finished helping my bf 2 touch up his assignment in tat topic. Moreover, there’s a talk regarding STRESS by 郑乙倩医生 in our fellowship (马来西亚团契) yesterday nite.

   STRESS is a situation whereby u expect sth 2 happen OR somebody 2 perform according 2 ur will but it turn out d other way round due 2 lack of resources OR capabilities. Example of resources r time, $$, ppl, etc. Whereas example of capabilities r leadership, patience, etc.

   郑乙倩医生 reminded us yesterday tat we encounter STRESS evryday in our life. It depends very much on us on how r we going 2 face it. Either by thinking positively OR hv negative thoughts. But very important, we need 2 dispose our daily STRESS evryday instead of accumulating it until 1 day it burst off!!

   Overall, 郑乙倩医生 admit tat doctors cant b much help 2 reduce stress among some extremely stress patients. In such situations, she wil try 2 spread d gospel of GOD 2 them…she wil try 2 help them by sharing her own xperience wif those patients. GOD indeed helped her 2 change frm a very emotional young lady 2 a very patient doctor. Since GOD love us so much until HE is willing 2 send HIS only Son 2 d earth 2 die on d cross on behalf of our sin, wat else tat GOD wil keep 4 himself? HE wil listen 2 our prayers n answer 2 our needs.

   So, let us cast all our worries n fears 2 GOD, n hv faith in HIM. 4 GOD wil make a way, wher ther seems 2 b no way!!! May GOD bless us (",)

Surrender to GOD

September 22nd, 2006 by amypuay

Failure… 4 attempts to take up  the teaching course (2 in M’sia & 2 in S’pore) & yet none of them success :( Or is it GOD’s will? I keep on asking GOD, wat is HIS reason behind tis? or does HE got a better plan 4 me?

Sometimes I keep asking myself oso…y am I so fond of becoming a teacher? even my frens who know me well & know about my planning oso ask me d same question.y, y tel me y? frankly speaking, hehe, i dunno oso. Mayb it is my ambition since i was a small little gal. If i achieve tat, of cz I wil hv a great sense of satisfaction.

Meanwhile, another perception appears. Perhaps due to my long pursuits of becoming a teacher, I "bu gan yen" if couldn’t achive my dreams. Wat if 1 day I strived? wil I be realy tat hapi? or after I achieve, I wil not cherish it at all? confused!!! I alwiz pray tat GOD grant me a clear mind. Pls don let me become 1 of d ppl having tis kind of thoughts :

不属于你的你就偏要不可,到头来是你的你又不珍惜

LORD, I surrender myself 2 u……Bear1
