God Always Answers Prayer



When the idea is not right God says "No".
No ~ When the idea is not the best.
No ~ When the idea is absolutely wrong.
No ~ When it though help you, it could create
.........problems for someone else.

When the time is not right God says "Slow".
What a catastrophe it would be if God answered
every prayer at the snap of your fingers.
Do you know what would happen?
God would become your servant,
not your master.
Suddenly,
God would be working for you
instead of you working for God.

Remember,
God's delays are not God's denials.
God's timing is perfect.
Patience is what we need in prayer.

When you are not right, God says "Grow".
The selfish person has to grow in unselfishness.
The cautious person must grow in courage.
The timid person must grow in confidence.
The dominating person must grow in sensitivity.
The critical person must grow in tolerance.
The negative person must grow in positive attitudes.
The pleasure-seeking person must grow in
compassion for suffering people.

When everything is all right, God says "Go".
Then miracles happen:
A hopeless alcoholic is set free!
A drug addict finds release!
A doubter becomes as a child in his belief.
Diseased tissue responds to treatment,
and healing begins.
The door to your dream suddenly swings open
and there stands God saying, "Go!"

~ Dr. Robert Schuller~

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

If the Lord has you on hold... hold on!
If the Lord has said "NO" to you... thank Him!
If the Lords is molding your heart and mind... go with His change!
If the Lord opens doors that you have asked Him to open... Praise Him!
Be blessed wherever you are in your life today!
God has His hands on the situation!

Jay Chou 周杰伦

I am currently addicted to Jay Chou's new album -- Capricorn, especially songs like 稻香、给我一首歌的时间、兰亭序 and 说好的幸福呢......

Here's the full MV of 稻香 I found on YouTube. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do... (^.^)

Lyrics

对这个世界如果你有太多的抱怨
跌倒了 就不敢继续往前走
为什么 人要这么的脆弱 堕落
请你打开电视看看
多少人为生命在努力勇敢的走下去
我们是不是该知足
珍惜一切 就算没有拥有
还记得你说家是唯一的城堡
随著稻香河流继续奔跑
微微笑 小时候的梦我知道
不要哭 让萤火虫带著你逃跑
乡间的歌谣永远的依靠
回家吧 回到最初的美好

不要这么容易就想放弃
就像我说的
追不到的梦想换个梦不就得了
为自己的人生鲜艳上色
先把爱涂上喜欢的颜色
笑一个吧 功成名就不是目的
让自己快乐快乐这才叫做意义
童年的纸飞机 现在终於飞回我手里
所谓的那快乐
赤脚在田里追蜻蜓追到累了
偷摘水果被蜜蜂给叮到怕了
谁在偷笑呢
我靠著稻草人 吹著风 唱著歌 睡著了

哦哦 午后吉它在虫鸣中更清脆
哦哦 阳光洒在路上就不怕心碎
珍惜一切 就算没有拥有
还记得你说家是唯一的城堡
随著稻香河流继续奔跑
微微笑 小时候的梦我知道
不要哭 让萤火虫带著你逃跑
乡间的歌谣永远的依靠
回家吧回 到最初的美好

A Trip To Damai Puri Resort

I just came back from Damai Puri Resort today.

Guess what? This is my first time experiencing long-distance driving after getting my P-license beginning of this year!!! The journey was quite fun actually, with two cars escorting me, in front and behind. I am finally a Very Important Person....LOL!

After checking in, I took a short walk with my mum and her colleagues around the newly-renovated Damai Puri Resort & Spa. Pity them, after millions or money spent on the renovation, we can't really spot much differences. The most obvious renovation made is the swimming pool. They merge all the pools into one big pool besides having a small jacuzzi-like spa pool at the edge.

Returning back to my room, I dived into the bed and took a nap. Its 3:20pm when I woke up. As I was preparing to go swimming, two of my roommates ( my mum's colleague's daughters ) came back. What I saw was two black ladies, standing in front of me. Oh my gosh, one of them has turned into pieces of charcoal. Seriously. And the other one resembled a lobster that is well cooked. That terrifies me. I held back and decided to put my swimming suit back into my suitcase. We went swimming after the sun tones down a bit.
.
One funny incident happened after we had our dinner in the hotel room. My mum was putting out her towel at the balcony. And I followed her out and was watching the magnificient sunset. Then, I heard the sound of the balcony door being locked. I turned back and yelled at my mom. I even knocked at the glass door. She looked at me and stood still, looking shocked. After about 10 seconds, she opened the door and laughed non-stop.

I asked her,."What happened to you?"
.
She said,"I thought what I saw was a reflection of yours. I thought you are in the room, standing facing the glass door and trying to fool me..." Isn't she funny?

At night, two 21-year-old male teacher came to our room to play games with the two Form Three girls in my room, I am not included though. Why? Like what my friends said, I am too conservative. Actually, I'm NOT. It's just that the punishments given to losers of the game are scary.

I don't know what is the name given to that game. It has something to do with wooden blocks, being stacked up, and the players are supposed to withdraw one wooden block at a time. The one who makes it topples loses the game. It was really exciting. Me, as the audience, enjoyed the most, watching them doing all sorts of WEIRD actions. :P One of them even opened up the door and scream "I love xxx (someone who is staying in the resort too)". And believe it or not? They did that in the middle of the night. Its 1:00 a.m. !!!!!

I didn't know that TEACHERS also make so much noise when they are not supposed to...LOL...I didn't sleep until it was 3:00 a.m.. Wheww, what a night.

The next morning, I went to the Damai restaurant and have breakfast with my mum. My mum got her free voucher because it comes together with room. I was supposed to pay for RM43.00 (adult price) for the breakfast. But things happened.

I walked into the restaurant and waited at the counter to be seated. There were several teachers and their families waiting there too.

When the waiter came and asked, "How many people altogether?"

Someone answered,"13 people, 11 adults, 2 children."

The waiter then asked who was the second children mentioned. A finger pointed to me. I was speechless.

The waiter asked in which form I am in. Someone, again, answered for me,"Tingkatan 1." The waiter nodded, as a sign of believing in what that "someone" has told him. Then, we are given the permission to enjoy the breakfast without having to pay for an extra diner, ME...

Actually, I was feeling happy and sad at the same time. Feeling happy because I don't have to waste my RM43.00 for the not-so-luxurious breakfast. Feeling sad because I am being "appointed" as a Form One student.....ARGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

Oh my God!!! Do I look like a 13-year-old little girl? For those who know me, please answer this question for me.

After the breakfast, my mum and I went to the beach and take a few magnificent pictures of the scenery. We headed back to Kuching at about 12:00 noon.

Below are some pictures taken during the trip :

Some comments from the readers of this article :-

Freddy Says:
LATEST NEWS!!!
People who took loans from ah longs and cannot repay their loans are seeking help from syed hamid so that they can be protected from these nasty and inhumane ah longs …they earnestly seek to be detained under ISA as their lives are threatened.
hahahahahahahahahahaha.......
..
Anak Msia Says:
Botak said : On why Ahmad was not detained for making racist comments, he explained that Umno had already punished him by suspending him for three years and stripping him of his party posts.
Does it means that if any opposition MP makes a racist comment, the party can takes action on him and no more ISA ??
If a thief committed an offence, then the parent wack him, then he is no more a criminal ??

Another Masterpiece of God














******

This is a fire rainbow : the rarest of all naturally occurring atmospheric phenomena. The picture below was captured on the Idaho-Washington border. The event lasted about an hour.
Clouds have to be cirrus, at least 20K feet in the air, with just the right amount of ice crystals; and the sun has to hit the clouds at precisely 58 degrees.

对不起,我不爱国。


我曾经尝试去改观,抹去我个人对本国的不满与批评,但是这个国家一次又一次的让我失望。无论是政治,或是教育制度,都让我彻底地失望。我爱国家,但国家爱我吗?
.
.
一直以来,我很努力地读书,同时,也不忘踊跃参与课外活动,只希望可以获得奖学金,减轻父母财经上的负担。SPM成绩终于揭晓了,我期盼的11A1并不能如我所愿般呈现在我眼前,只拿了10A11A2(不是炫耀喔!)。什么科目获得A2呢?就是我的母语---华文。老师知道了,也格外惊讶。后来,老师透露说,只有获得8590分以上的同学才能摘到那甜美的果实,一个让人垂涎三尺的A1
.
.
唉!这就是马来西亚。其他科目,譬如:物理、化学、生物、数学、高级数学,只要能够踩到60分的界线,A1已稳稳在手。为什么呢?因为政府正努力证明姓“马”的种族也能掌握这些高难度的科目。好骄傲啊!而华文是外语,只有本国二等公民会修的科目,所以政府就想尽办法,调高程度,越少人获得A1越好,让这些不知好歹的华裔子弟尝尝拿外语的滋味儿。哼!
.
.
我申请了政府奖学金(JPA)。我以为,政府所说的“华文成绩并不算在内”是真实的,但这都是片面语。尽管我已符合JPA所拟定的条件,但最后还是落空了。愤怒这两个字已无法解析我的心情;应该是无奈、憎恨和失望的混合体吧!也许其他人各方面的表现都不及你,可是他们却能赢取这值百万的彩票,有机会越洋追随自己的梦想,开支一概由政府支付。
.
.
为什么他们“波列”,我“达波列”呢?这是一道傻问题,因为天下的马来西亚人都清楚知道其答案。种族歧视嘛!
.
.
JPA口口声声说他们已重新调整固打(quota) ,土著55%;非土著45%。你相信吗?当然不。因为JPA集团已千交待,万交待,叫你别相信他们啊!想想看JPA代表什么?
JPA = Jangan Percaya Aku!
.
/

我有一名获得此奖学金的朋友已经在INTEC办登记手续,开始接收预科班教育,六个月后就将飞往他国深造。她说,300人当中,大约只有30名非土著(包括华裔及印裔)。你觉得JPA之前说的数据真实吗?他们只是在办舞台剧。Raja Petra Kamarudin说的十分有道理:在马来西亚,90%税收来自于非土著 (华裔占多数) ,10%来自于非土著(巫裔占多数);但90%奖学金给了土著,10% 给了非土著。
.
"The Malays have a very warped view of justice. Malays practice two standards of justice. There is one standard for the Malays and another for the non-Malays. And 90% of the tax is paid by the non-Malays and 10% by the Malays, says Tun Dr Mahathir. But 10% of the scholarships must go to the non-Malays and 90% to the Malays. And when they propose to change this to 40% for the non-Malays and 60% for the Malays, the Malays raise a hue and cry. And they call this justice. "
.
.
公平吗?看看政府的称就知道啦!


.
公布了这数据之后,巫统青年团竟然还敢大呼小叫,说这新调整的固打并不符合条例,会剥夺土著的教育机会。岂有此理!难道我们不是马来西亚人吗?Please larr………看吧,我用“larr”这个助词,代表我是不折不扣的大马人,完完全全被这里的文化影响啊!可是,我们却无法享有土著所拥有的待遇。哇,经过50年独立,马来西亚人终於有一个超越他国的技巧啦!那就是-----分辨肤色。厉害吧! 马来西亚波列!

Cemerlang, Gemilang, Terbilang
.
.
再者,JPA之前也说过,为了公平起见,一个家庭绝对不可有一人以上获得这奖学金。他们在睁眼说瞎话。我认识一个人,家庭中,有两人获得这彩票。姐姐被派去韩国;妹妹则被派到UK(不是ULU KAPIT喔!是UNITED KINGDOM!) ;另外一名朋友,成绩AABB的,学校考试平均分数是60分,出乎意料外,她却获得了这奖学金。所以,你能想像JPA口中的特优生(top achievers) 到底有多top了吧!我并不是在批评真正有资格获取这奖学金的人,我想要表达的是 JPA根本没有好好筛选“入围名单侯选人”。
.
.

我对中四学生的劝告是:除了10科必拿科目,尽量选修其他容易获得A1的科目,以提高你中奖学金的机率。若你觉得很辛苦,那就得劳烦父母扩大交际范围,尽量与教育高官打交道,让高官为你预定奖学金。这方法是大多数人在采用的喔!所以说嘛,做人别太老实,老实人吃亏啊!
.
.
我失望我持有的身份证是大马卡,因为我根本感受不到让我得以在这儿生存下去的余地。这真的是我的国家吗?逃吧! :P
