Me and You



Feeling so shameless thinking we're the most adorable couple around. *Muahahha* But who cares, READ THE DISCLAIMER: the webmistress says whatever and posts watever she fancys. So there! I feel that blogs with photos add more personality and more life to mere words. Yeah as they say a picture speaks a thousand words. So what does this picture says?

Since I know where I can upload my photos, shall included more photos from now on. I'm going shutter happy :)

Way to go ger

I got a distinction for my insurance exams :) Oh thank God. It wasn't a very hard paper, but a distinction. Wheee and my dad only got a pass. I can tell he's jealous. Muahaha

Still not feeling better, been coughing my lungs out I tell you. Can hardly talk now too. Hurts way too much. No fried food, no spicy food, no oily food, How do I survive?

On another note, I think people should start having their personal blogs as well. S that we can have a peek into their lives and know them on a deeper level. Haha did I say deeper level? K maybe not ALL that deep. But I do find reading other's blog very interesting. Their inner thoughts or just nonsense ramblings. It's your freedom to say what you wanna ;) Go go, get a blog..

More sick

Argh.. now my sore throat has developed into a flu. Feel so sick :( Hate the feeling of being sick. What a sick feeling to be sick! #*^$@ And I still have to study for my exams, which is just a day away. Hardly had a good night's rest. Keep waking up to go to the loo, thanks to the gallons of water I downed to keep my throat moisturised or watever. Then I started to sneeze and ta tah, I caught the flu bug. Sheesh...

Ahhh I feel so sick now. Head spinning, nose dripping. Just wanna dso nothing but sleep the day away.

Cause and Effect

After supper at Jalan Kayu on Monday, where I had chesse prata, egg prata and 2 kosong prata and not forgetting an iced milo with Alexis, I'm down with a terrible + horrible + painful sore throat. It's hurts so so so bad. Can feel like it's inflamed already :( Regretted being such a glutton. Now I have to drink and eat all sorts of stuffs, including liquid chlorophyll, which did little for my sore throat, but worked wonders for my bowel movements! Went to the toilet to shi* like 3 times today!

Does anyone have any miracle medicine for my sore throat? Yah and do pray for me too... I feel so pitiful now. OoooOOwwwWWWWW...

Does that sound like me?

Koh, your hemispheric dominance is equally divided between left and right brain, while you show a moderate preference for auditory versus visual learning, signs of a balanced and flexible person.

Your balance gives you the enviable capacity to be verbal and literate while retaining a certain "flair" and individuality. You are logical and compliant but only to a degree. You are organized without being compulsive, goal-directed without being driven, and a "thinking" individual without being excessively so.

The one problem you might have is that your learning might not be as efficient as you would like. At times you will work from the specific to the general, while at other times you'll work from the general to the specific. Sometimes you will be logical in your approach while at other times random. Since you cannot always control the choice, you may experience frustrations not normally felt by persons with a more defined and directed learning style.

You may also minimally experience conflicts associated with auditory processing. You will be systematic and sequential in your processing of information, you will most often focus on a single dimension of the problem or material, and you will be more reflective, i.e., "taking the data in" as opposed to "devouring" it.

Overall, you should feel content with your life and yourself. You are, perhaps, a little too critical of yourself - and of others - while maintaining an "openness" which is redeeming. Indecisiveness is a problem and your creativity is not in keeping with your potential. Being a pragmatist, you downplay this aspect of yourself and focus on the more immediate, the more obvious and the more functional.

Disappointments

Had an overnight youth leaders meeting with youth pastor and the other youth cell leaders. It was a fruitful meeting, despite leaving with some issues unsettled. But overall it was a good time of sharing and I left feeling encouraged and blessed by everyone's story.

I guess there are so many times and so many things that we wished were different, and we can operate in an optimum situation. But as we know in life, nothing is a bed of roses, and smooth sailing all the way. Even if things are perfect, we may be the imperfect one to ruin the perfectness of everything. And like I always believe, Change will be the only constant. We will always have to be willing to move along with changes and adapt and be flexible.

In this journey of life, we may be thrown into situations where we feel we really have to bite our teeth to get by and it's often the journey that requires us to keep our eyes fix on God, even though the destination is clear. And I do know that at the end, ultimately, God will be there at the finishing line to receive me.

There's so so much that I can say but in it all I just wanna say that I have never regretted serving God in the youth ministry. Though there have been many disappointing moments, many times when you feel misunderstood even, and feel rejected by the same people you are trying to reach, but the rewards of seeing lives transfromed, lives being surrendered to God, youths serving and passionate about God, that is enough. And I will always remind myself that, it's ALL for God, for Him alone and it's never for my own glory.

Wish

my dad would stop bugging me... At least give me some credit for what I am sacrificing.
Sigh, dun mean to sound this ... I dun even know what? Bummed? Clueless, confused, conflicted.

Life, am I living my own life or the life you want me too?

What's up?

I don't have anything to say today. Been a boring day trying to study for my insurance papers. The first paper is on the 21st of July then the next on the 31st. Think I may need to register for the third paper soon, because the waiting list can end up pretty long.

Studying for the paper is kinda boring and I don't even know how much of it do I really remember.... I don't even know if I'll look forward to my new career. I'm trying to remain positive too. But it can still be pretty hard to keep your chin up when there's so much happening.

"Have faith in me, have faith in me, have faith..."

Character

What do you stand for? What are your beliefs? What are you passionate about? Who are the people around you? What thoughts do you entertain? They all shape your character.
I don't deny that at times I have failed to mould my character with the wrong actions and choices. It's important to know what you stand for, or you'll just fall for anything. Stand firm and not waver in your beliefs. But if need be, open your heart and be receptive to what others have to say. You never know how you can be a model for others and be that inspiration to the people around you. What about you, do you want rub off in others?
What have I rubbed off in those around me.......

Fatty Day

Weigh myself today and dun like what I see... *sulks* fatty fatty day. Where did the weight come from? Let me see, there was the laksa, vanilla coke, oh and all the fast food, KFC, MOS buger, LJS. Gotta put a stop to this. Alexis better not suggest to go eat fast food or he'll sabo my diet.

Anyway I was at Caltex House today for a roadshow and I really gotta share this. You know I always got this idea that roadshows are so hard where people are never interested to stop and hear you out. But today I was quite surprise that not just one but three people actually approached me. They had some queries about their existing policies and though they may not have bought any insurance but they sure made my day. My attempt to talk to people also didn't seem too bad. I guess it's not that bad after all. *grins*

Shutterbug at Work

Been pretty interested in photography on a more serious level and have been experimenting more with alexis digi cam. His digi cam is such a worthwhile investment :) We have had many precious memories in all the photos we have taken, where each picture speaks a story that is shared by us.

If you have shutter bug interest, check this out. It's the 26 things, International Photographic Scavanger Hunt. I'm giving it a go. Exciting and fun.

Pain pain pain

Went skating at East Coast with Alexis, Karen, Pam and their fren, Soon Guan if i remember correctly about the name. not too many people at that time. lesser people=lesser traffic= less chances of accidents. For those who go to East Coast on Sundays will so know what I'm talking about. It becomes mentally tiring to even try to skate, coz you must look out for bikers, kids, skaters, pedestrains who think they own the roads, people who dun look where they're walking, huge group of people walking in a straight line right across the paths, ect.

After that had FNL meeting back to Roxy where I stepped on a staple. Hurts so bad. Good thing the sole of the feet are usually very thick! Nevertheless kept me awwing and owwing for quite a while. During the meeting was having a headache and whipped out my axe oil medicated oil (yah I know so auntie). But that didn't really do the trick. After the meeting I went to look for Alexis at Parkway who developed some photos (will post them later). By then the headache was really killing me :( Bought a new tiger balm medicated balm (yah yah auntie in action) and then headed home to rest.

It's days like today when my headaches are SO SO bad, that I begin to suspect if I have brain tumour or something. Honest! Coz the pain is no ordinary pain. Well but I do feel better after I had my dinner. It's funny but food does wonders when I feel sick or unwell.

Not feeling well

So not feeling well today. Had diahorrea and vomitted until there was nothing more to throw up except water. Sourish after taste in my mouth which really is *yucks* Took my temperature, 37.5C. That is okay right? Better be. Dun wanna go work tomorrow. Oh no I feel like throwing up again.....

Rantssssssss

I'm in one of those everything is just so bad that I just wanna disappear from the fact of the earth mood. Feel like screaming, feel like shouting, feel like crying. Why God, why must I have such a father? I really can't stand how he does things. I really cant. And now I have to work for him. It's totally unbearable. ARGHHHHH Hopefully I dun have to put up with his nonsense for long. No one and I mean absolutely nobody can understand how he thinks and act in such a way. It's unbelievable the stuffs he does.. *rolls eyes*

A day at work

Work started for me this week. Dread. But then again I gotta have a more positive attitude now that I have made up my mind to do it. Just gotta give my best shot. Actually now that I think about it, it's not ALL that bad. Things could work out for the better in future. Thanks to all of you who have been a listening ear to my grumblings and complaints. *hugs*

So what's work like for me? Firstly, my biggest complaint, no personal computer, also no internet. But if you consider the line I'm in, you dun really need to stay in the office, so not much need for all these. Another good thing is that, my aunt also works in the same office so there's at least someone else besides my dad to work with. Oh and the hours are flexible :) no 9-5 job, but this also means I may have to work beyond 5 and even the weekends.

But I guess working life will not be the same once I get my license to sell insurance. Life will no longer be this slack, official end of bumming life.
