We came, We saw, We conquered.

Today, is Friday. =)

The Re-evolve Crew came today!! I just came back from school actually. It was great. We got to understand more about RR and I think my cf teacher understood more also. The turn up was awesome. Praise God! We were actually worried that not many will come. There was around 20 students from the afternoon session and around 23 people from the morning session. Trust in God. Surrender everything to Him. Do your best and He'll take care of the rest!

Finally!! PCGHS is signed up for RR! PCGHS for God!

There'll be a post on today's RR meeting in my school in the Recess Revo Penang blog. Go check it out! It should be up by this weekend. =))))))))))

I burst.

I burst. Last Friday.
My head was spinning. I am getting headaches lately.
My skull felt like it was splitting.
I can't seem to remember what I did a minute ago. Seriously, what did I do a minute ago?
This is getting serious. I'm going to burn out.
I couldn't withstand the pressure anymore. Even with the debate 'friendly" over.
I guess I'm putting all this pressure on myself. Partly it's because of RR.
Am I going into depression? I hope not. I mean, no, I'm not.
We're inviting the Re-evolve team to come this Friday.
First my cf teacher approves. Then she says we better not do it this Friday.
She's driving me crazy. She says this then she says that.
I'm not going to go in details what she said to us. She kept on giving 'excuses' until I myself don't know what to say to her.
Thank God she finally signed the letter to approve the invitation.
My mood has been swinging wildly lately.
Most of the time, it has something to do with RR.
I need to trust in God more. I need to surrender everything to Him.
God help me.

I'm serious. What did I do a minute ago?

debate!

by God's grace, I've lived another week...=)

Firstly, about my debate 'friendly' last Wednesday. The debate was in SMJK Keat Hwa in Kedah and it was us versus the Keat Hwa team. It was super scary because the Keat Hwa team was like very experienced and it was our first time representing the school. Suprisingly though, we were not really that nervous during the whole debate. That's what happens if you pray to God before you do anything. =) Before the debate, when we were preparing and all, the Keat Hwa team was super serious while my team was chatting with each other and we were totally not serious. My team and the Keat Hwa team = total opposites. I guess it's our way of taking away our nervousness. haha.

Anyway, I felt that the Keat Hwa team's people were a little fake. I'm not trying to be a batu api or anything. I'm just saying what I think of them. When we first arrived, they were like super friendly. Then right before the debate, they became not friendly and also very competative. I guess I can't blame them because their school's giving them a lot of pressure but if you don't want to be friends with us, then don't act.

At last, we lost. Haha. We lost because our debate skills were terrible and we couldn't speak in fluent and flowery chinese. But the judges said that our points were good. Even that couldn't help us to win. After all, it's a 'debate' friendly, not a 'finding points' friendly. Anyway, I was satisfied with our performance. =)

Adios for now. Recess Revo updates next time. =)

Gah!!!!!!

haha...two posts in one day, or should I say one week. =P

Argh!!!!!!!!! Debate 'friendly' is coming! This coming Wednesday's the day! I really seriously don't feel like going!! I don't like the topic. I don't want to think about the topic. I don't want to research on the topic. I don't want to skip classes to discuss about the topic. And I definitely don't want to stay back after school to prepare for the 'friendly'. My script is not ready. In fact, everyone's script is not ready. We are soooo going to humiliate ourselves there. Whatev!!! BOOOOO!!

Gah!! Everything happening at the same time!!!!! Recess Revo. Debate. 24 season drums' performance. Finally the school concert's over so I don't have to skip lessons and stay back for drum practices. See, I'm skipping lessons for both drums and debate! I'm sooooo going to die. Boohooooooooooo....I want to focus on just RR!!!!!!!!! I am sooo glad that Wednesday is coming!!!! Now I don't need to waste my time preparing for this dumb debate. Gah!!!! Why am I always saying "Gah!" ?? Oh nooooooo, I'm starting to sound like Dommy. Anyway, this 'friendly' is seriously making me hate debate. A lot. Also I have been missing my librarian's duty to go for drums practices. Now, I owe the library 6 duties. 1 duty = 3 hours. You do the math.

Oh ya. I forgot to say this in my previous post. I managed to sell 11 RR badges without even trying really hard to sell them. I'm sure I can sell more if I want to. Thank you Jesus! =]
And ya. I suddenly remembered that I told Mel Mel I was going to call her. Haha. Almost forgot about it. Oh well, I'll call her tonight. XD

On my drum performance in the school concert yesterday. This time around, we collaborated with the dance team so it was like a fusion of drums and dance. It was quite special I guess. But my friends told me that the dance part is super not nice because some of us from the drums team had to dance together with the dance team and we, who are so not gifted in the dance department totally wrecked the otherwise quite good performance. Ha. And I was one of the 'dancers'. Ha. During the concert, the drums part was ok I guess. Then came the dance part. Towards the end, my fan (yup, we dance with fans) mysteriously flew away. Thank God the next part was when everyone would be moving around so I managed to grab my fan from the floor. If not, the ending pose would be so not nice. Me and fans don't get along. Ha.

a looooong and dizzying week..=P

.....one week later (ok, more than one week)...hehe =)

Update on Recess Revo in my school. In case you didn't know, it's Penang Chinese Girls' High School.

Monday. We met at the flagpole for morning prayer. There was around 9 people. A few forgot and went to the old place but they managed to dash to the flagpole for a short prayer..haha..My school's PK HEM saw us because our flagpole is in the field so it's quite obvious but she didn't say anything or ask us to get lost or stuff like that. So, thank God once again.

Tuesday. We went to the flagpole for prayer again. More people came. Yay! Then we were planning to do something like what Chung Hwa's RR did - belanja the students drinks. We decided not to do the kerja amal thing because the teacher thought that it wouldn't really make an impact. She suggested that we go and counsel people. I was like, what??!! I don't know how to counsel people and seriously no one will let us counsel them. So, we decided on the belanja drinks thing and to collect funds for that project the next day.

Wednesday. I went to the foyer to wait for everyone to gather around so that we can go to the flagpole to pray again. Then one of the girls told me that we cannot go to the flagpole to pray anymore because a teacher complained about us praying there. And the teacher is supposedly the Buddhist Society's teacher advisor or something. Yup. The students can walk around the whole school holding joss sticks praying but we can't stand at the flagpole to pray quietly. Maybe we should campaign for religion equality. Don't get me wrong. I have nothing against Buddhists. Maybe it's God's way of testing us. To see if we can trust Him enough to overcome this obstacle. Anyway, we couldn't do the belanja drinks thing anymore because the cf members said that we should go slow and wait for the issue to pass first. I was like, no way! But they insisted on not doing such a big thing. One I 'm not going to say who even said that I was rushing things! I'm not rushing it! We're dragging it! We said that we wanted to start at the beginning of the month! Now's already towards the end and we haven't started anything yet! Yes, maybe it's not the time yet but have we tried our very best? I suggested that we continue to go to the flagpole to pray because it's not like the headmistress is asking us to stop but they said no. So, back to praying at a hidden place where not really anyone can see us.

Thursday. I asked my cf president when is the cf anniversary because we were going to invite the Re-evolve team to come to our school on that day and she said it was on the 20-something of August. So I asked her whether we can invite the team to come on an earlier date and she said 31 July, which is on a Friday. Meaning that the team must speak twice because we have the morning session and the afternoon session. I went back, asked Pragas, and he said yes!! Yay!! So all I need to do is type out a letter to invite the team and get the cf's teacher advisor and the PK KK's signature!

Friday. Told my cf president about the good news. Asked the cf's teacher advisor whether the team can come and she said yes! Yay! But she said that maybe only a few people will come even though it's during the cf's meeting time because most of them don't have transport. Nevermind, we have two weeks to invite our friends. We need to have faith and trust in God to bring in the people!
cf president's approval check
cf teacher advisor's approval check
PK KK's approval
2 down, 1 more to go.
They said that most probably the PK KK will approve because he's a Christian. So, YAY!!

That's all. Hehe, such a loooooooooooooooong post. Yippeee!!!!!!!! The Re-evolve team is finally coming!!!!!! Woohoo!!!!!!!!!! Praise the Lord!

all for love....=]

Yay!!!!! Woohoo!!!!!!! Woosh!!!!!!!! Whee!!!!!!

I was really busy this week and couldn't really plan anything for Recess Revo... BUSY!!!!! Oh, I hate that word!!!!!!! But thank God that my school's CF agreed to join Recess Revo!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!!! And I also thank God for Yi Qin (she's from CF) because she was the one who gave us the idea of doing kerja amal for our school for free. Finally, we can work towards doing something and not just sit around planning to do something. She also helped us to ask for approval from the CF's teacher advisor and talked to the teacher in charge of the kerja amal stuff. Without her, we wouldn't have gotten anything done! A BIG thank you to Yi Qin! We are also praying for money because we are most probably going to help to paint the school and we want to pay for the paint. We are going to pray at the flagpole next Monday! We currently have a prayer group every morning from 7 a.m. onwards but it's at a quite secluded area where hardly anyone sees us... so at least more people can see us at the flagpole and start asking what are we doing and then we can have the opportunity to tell them about Jesus! We currently have around 15 students joining us for prayer and I pray that more and more people will come and join us! I hope they will remember to meet up at the flagpole next Monday... Anyway, thank God for everything! And I really really really really really hope we will be able to do the kerja amal thing and not back out!! God we need your help!! I hope I will have the opportunity to blog about it at least by next week!!

My debate competition is coming!! It's on the 22nd of July! In Kedah! It's supposed to be a 'friendly match' but it seems more like a competition to me. I have been skipping classes to attend 'intensive' training!! Ok, it's not really that intensive but there's training every single day! See, I told you it's not friendly at all! Gah....homework to catch up on! And it's a chinese debate! I can't even say one full sentence in Mandarin! And they speak crazy fast! And I have to talk for 4 minutes based on their points! So I'm supposed to talk without a script! But I'm still going to write a script, I don't care. Haha. Ah!!!!! I can only do this through Him who strengthens me...
By the way, I'm supposed to be doing research on my debate topic now, not blogging about it..haha XP

Ok, that's all for now. Au revoir!

*pats stomach and says well done* =P

As promised - my post on my buffet dinner at Rasa Sayang.

The coffee house is named Spice Market Cafe. It really does look like a market, but not in a bad way. There was quite many people there, I guess it's because of the promotion. It was international buffet night so there was an array of cuisines from different races for us to choose from. There's even Satay!! Enough of me talking, I shall now let the pictures speak for themselves. XDThere was a desert bar and a chocolate fountain!! Chocolate covered marshmallows!! I only managed 3 very tiny pieces of cake. Even though they were very nice to eat and look at. I was simply too full. I didn't like the cold seafood. It was tasteless and cold. XP I like the sashimi though. =] I tried a weird looking pasta and it turned out to be quite good. It was squarish with a cube in the middle and the cube was filled with pumpkin and almond according to the chef. Overall, the food was delicious and it's definitely worth going. =) We left at 10pm with our stomachs ready to burst at anytime. =P

Then came the HORROR.

It was raining cats and dogs and elephants and crocodiles and whales when we were leaving Rasa Sayang. The road was very winding and we could hardly see because it was raining so heavily. We quickly prayed for God's protection. To make matters worse, cars were zooming past us and splashing water all over our car!! Can't they just drive a little bit slower? -.- The roads turned into rivers. (a certain someone told me that she would like to swim in it in a yellow bikini. XP) I was too terrified and forgot to take photographs. If not, you all can see that we literally can't see the road in front of us. It was seriously SCARY.

Sometimes in our lives, we can't see the road in front of us. We get anxious and lose our sense of direction. We get lost and afraid. But know that God will always be there for us. Depend and surrender everything to Him. He never gets lost and can never be blinded. He has already planned our road for us. When you don't know how to continue, when there are obstacles preventing you from doing something for God, call out to Him!! He'll guide you and lead you.

Anyway, thank God that the car engine did not die and that we did not die or meet an accident or something. =)

Thank God Thank God Thank God Thank God Thank God Thank God

another foreword =]

Hey everyone!! XD

This is my new blog account. My old one had only 2 posts in it... hehe... I guess I don't have enough determination..haha XP
This time I'm doing it for real. I really really really really seriously hope I don't "hangat-hangat tahi ayam"!! My enthusiasm often lasts only for the first few posts.

Anyway, my next post will be about my buffet dinner in Rasa Sayang. I hope. I'm going this coming Tuesday! I can't wait!! Actually, I'm going because there's this great promotion going on. It's buy 1 free 1 for buffet dinners from Monday to Thursday. The normal price costs a bomb!! It's like RM 100++++++ for 1! So this promo is really worth it!! For a poor food addict like me anyway.

That's all for now. Hit me again ok? XP

haha..me posting my first post. =]

P/S: I miss you Mel Mel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When are you coming back?? It has been 30 hours since you left me here...all alone...with no one to turn to....haha..dramatic much? XP Anyway, I MISS YOU!!!!! All the best! God Bless! Muackiessss.
