So I pass the good deed on
Can't believe that I do this. Hehe, It was last Saturday that I've decided to be a Santa Claus. So I bought all these to bless my sister-sister kesayangan. Jojo the elephant lover who bought ice-cream for me the day before has inspired me to give to others.
So I pass her good deed on and I kinda modify her idea. Haha. My original plan was just to bless my beloved labmate Hidayah, she is going to do her viva presentation 2 weeks earlier which is falls on this Friday as she will be flying to Sabah at 26th. I know It is going to be a tough week for her to prepare for exam and the viva presentation altogether. Somehow God has placed a heart in me to encourage her, as she has been kind to me throughout the days in our FYP lab.
Her passion for the labworks really amazed me. As we always has the negative comments about our majority neighbours that they are lazy, irresponsible and etc, Hidayah is the one that I have so much to learn from. She really planned for her FYP and she managed to fit it into her packed schedule even with the extra workloads requested by our supervisor. Imagine she is a navy member and yet she can finish everything (including labwork and thesis) far more earlier than me. I would say it's about her time management.
I remember last time I used to bear the hard feeling for another chinese girl in our lab, I didn't talk to her or even when I have to, I talked in a bad manners (because I really beh tahan with her). One day Hidayah approached me in the class and talked to me about this. I turned my face away and refused to admit it. But she was such a peace-maker that want to see me make up with that girl. I felt so ashamed of myself in front of her for being that childish. I was supposed to be the salt and light of God but I took away the peace in that friendship. She tapped on my shoulder and gave me a smile. She is such a living testimony for her God.
Another thing that I liked about Hidayah is that she never show muka masam when she is tension or unhappy, her muka ceria always encourage the people around her. I really love her smile. What a kind soul that she is.
Hence during that Saturday, even I still have a lot more chapters to study for the paper on this Monday, I went to her room and SURPRISE her with my love letter and chocolate. It wa so great to catch up with her in her room. I felt so encouraged afterward when I found that my little action meant so much for her. She thanked her God for me, and she really appreciate what did for her. I was almost in tears when I saw her picture on Instagram. It was just a little footstep but it makes a big move.
I thought of my little Burgersss when i picked the chocolate for Hidayah. So I get 7 packs of chocolate sekaligus at the end of the day. Haha.
To be honest, gift is not my very own love language but I always willing to do this for others, because it is the heart that matters =) It was through Jojo and Fong Wan that I see the cost of efforts when you really love for someone, as compared to the time they consumed for others, buying gifts is just a small matter=). I'm willing to bless others with what I have because I have already blessed with a high income part time job. I remember 2 years back then I was such a kedekut person that love to RECEIVE (in any form), hence I'm glad that at least for now I'm able to GIVE.
I was so sorry for my CG members because I have so little time to spend for them. Hence this is the chance that I can do something to encourage them,why not?
I was a happy girl that went to knock at Burgerss's door and see their surprised faces. I thank God for the good weather that I'm able to travel around and do the delivery.
Because I'm well-blessed to bless.

Just hold on for a little bit more!!!
Woke up at 7am, can hardly open my eyes. Damn sleepy while waiting for En.Roslan, feeling worse after I get into the car. Tried to stay alert and pray hard throughout the journey, just another 2 more hours, I can do it. All the way to Seberang Jaya.
Was not doing well until I jumped into the pool, every single cell of my body WIDE AWAKE. Felt so refreshed in the cool water. It feels the same everytime to be back in the water again =).
Today I got to demonstrate some lifesaving skills to the PBA group, an all-male group. Just some simple skills but they are so interested. Felt grateful of what have I learnt, saving lives becomes our common purpose. Sometimes I can get too numb with the purpose of doing lifesaving but instead we focused so much on timing and the skills itself.
Talked to one of the guy with Mat Salleh look ( forgot to ask his name), he is so humble. He saved two lives before but yet he still keep the passion to learn proper lifesaving skills. So happy that I can make some new friends here.
Back in USM, gonna study now, for my last paper in Chemistry. Yea, this is the last.
Yay!! Life is tough, but I'm tougher. Aza aza fighting!!!!
(Feel so Zzzz now )

Dear Heavenly Father,
Your thoughts are not my thoughts, neither are my ways your ways,
As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are your ways higher than my ways
and your thoughts than my thoughts.
Teach me to have trust in you with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding.
Lord, your way are tough but it worth it.
In Jesus name, Amen.

Write to God.
I know it has been the moody, gloomy posts that flooded over this place. But I wouldn't delete them. Because those are exactly the emotions that I went through for the past few weeks, about the journey.
Anyway, I've decided to write to God, every single word shall be dedicated to Him, because I'm gifted to write. I'm gonna use my gift well.
Thank you Fong Wan for inspiring my life, thanks for journeying with me, thanks for everything.

That SURPRISE!!!
4.43 pm I received the message from her, "Where are you?? Tekun? "
I replied "Yea, Why? But I'm leaving in 5 min. Gotta go swimming pool "
"Okay nvm "
10 mins ++ after I lengah-lengah a bit and stuck in the traffic jam, I finally arrived at the pool. When I was about to take my helmet off, this girl popped out from nowhere with *Jeng jeng jeng* a cup of Mcd Sundae holding in her hand. Aiyor!!!!!!!!!! I AM so touched. Jojo, why you so sweeeeeeeeeeeetttttttttt?
She has been "ambushing" here since 10 mins ago after I texted her, to throw this surprise at me !!! T.T
I really wanna cry ady. * Tears of joy *
Actually I knew she want to tapao something for me when she texted me, and i thought she would just give up when I told her I'm leaving my room. I REALLY didn't expect her "stalking" me outside the swimming pool!
" The ice-cream is melting."
I know, my heart is melting too.
I was actually late and my student was waiting for me. But I must have a few scoops of this cup that filled up with LOVE . I quickly scooped and let the melted sundae spread in my mouth. Gosh!!! this is the best Sundae that I ever tasted., seriously.
I left half of the cup for her because she didn't get another cup for herself.
Jojo, I really can't express my gratitude with words. You are the true friend that go extra miles for me, and you made my day.
Your little action that speaks a lot about our friendship. Why you so kind, sista?
I'm going to keep you for a lifetime, Jo. I really thank God for the journey with you along.
Your love make my cup overflows.

Preparation for Kyrgzstan
Whoah...finally i'm able to type out the country's name without referring to Google and the links.
Yay!! 20 more days to go and I'll be flying to the Eden of Nomad.
A few important items are on my checklist and I still don't have time to do my shopping.
Large backpack, small backpack, sneakers, khakis...
This gonna be my first ever backpacking trip and everything on the checklist are pretty new to me, and of course i'm EXCITED even with the process of learning to pick a cheap and good backpack, and i'm going to invest on a pair of good quality shoes.
One more thing...i'm gonna learn some Russian too!!! (gosh, i listened to a few times of the recording clips and the pronunciation is like...okay, i would say that it is one of the most difficult language for me), i will try my best to grasp some vocabs and simple conversation after final exam.
I'm trying to make myself doing exercise almost EVERYDAY now. It is so happened that my students requested for extra lessons these few days, it somehow draw me to the pool and SWIM after the lessons.
1 km or 2 km doesn't matter, yang pentingya i need to maintain the stamina, so that i can adapt better in a different climate. And i'm glad to realise that my stamina is kinda on the peak level (perasan betul). i did 50 m sprinting with Jacky Zai and turned out my record - 41 sec!!!! i can't believe that i can still make this after MASUM, it was the best record of my swimming experiences. Anyway, i guess swimming is not helpful enough, I need to have some on-land workouts after I do the shopping for my new Adidas ( can't wait!)
I guess I need to control my weight too (though it's not stated in the guide book), but I think it become harder for me to breath ( even walking up staircase) everytime when i put on weight. So here I go --> healthy meal. I take muesli with milk at least for one meal in a day. I cut down rice and heavy meals (i know they are tempting especially when I come back from swimming). I don't find it hard to go for muesli because i'm indulged with the RAISIN, it becomes my motivation to keep it up. haha, i know too much consumption of it can be fattening too. ( check my tummy everyday, it's still flat! hehe )
Alright, this is going to be part of my journey to Kyrgzstan too. *heart beating fast* i'm really looking forward to see myself standing on the Prairie, and to encounter God.

旅行的意义
人應該去旅行,在年輕的時候,趁著有脾氣裝瀟灑,有本錢耍個性, 離開睜眼閉眼看見的城市,逃離身邊的紛紛擾擾,找一個讓心里安靜 和乾淨的地方,讓自己變得跟水晶一般透明,然後拍一些美得想哭的 照片,留給老年的自己。

The mermaid's diary
I made it. 5 hours of swimming lesson in a day. Sipeh exhausted. Highest record of income. Part time job in uni life. My choice. Gonna be part of my memory too. Weather so hot. Sunburnt. Still make it through. Salute to myself. Most importantly, regain my passion. It was once lost, super impatient to the kids. Now enjoy every moment of it. Love them. Naughty or slow. Will miss traveling on my bike under the hot sun. Will miss soaking in the water for hours. Will definitely miss how I transform the dont-know-it-at-all kids to swim like fishes. And see them enjoy the water. Will miss my tanned skin. Enjoy every last bit of being a swimming instructor.
