It's wet, crowded, loud and food everywhere...

Good day readers! I've been abandoning my blog for weeks... and yes, the main reason is study. Almost everything that I do involves movement and also brain exercising! I'm restless considering how little I've been sleeping lately. (trying to burn the midnight oil as exam is 1 week away). Despite that, everything is going on smoothly, especially my reconstruction of time management. I feel fresh and these upcoming 7 days are the only time I have to gear up for the finals. eeps!! Scared? Yes. Why? I want satisfaction. Satisfaction? Meaning I want to make myself proud with my own efforts and not just to sit back and let it be last minutes. I hated last minutes. Everything that starts on the eleventh hour usually crumbles my satisfaction. Not a good feeling. For this second semester, my goal is straight A's, hoping the B's will go away. English Language and BM, probably no problem. Math and History are the 2 subjects that always go for B's no matter how hard I tried...

....is mainly dedicated to young Christians like myself, which makes me inspired with all the short stories and thoughts. It really does help me to reflect on my own life. So I'm here to share some of the contents of this awesome book. Let's just say the reason why I read this book is because all of my close friends keep bugging me around, telling how much they liked the stories..*bla bla bla* till I just can't wait to find out what the excitement is about. 'Let's 'teh-tarik!' is divided into 4 sections, namely : -Life -Love -Community -Looking Upward "Inspiring stories and thoughts to finish well in life.." Based on the 4 'finishing-well' attitudes as outlined in this book. Each section contains touching and inspiring stories, thought, human triumphs, useful tips to enlighten, inspire, intrigue, move, provoke and stimulate readers about issues in life and to keep us going. So now I'll select a few stories/thoughts on each section. F...

'Do Not Disturb'

I had no idea what am I about to post today. Sigh. Greetings readers :) I miss mum and dad. It's 4 days since they've gone back to KL and I miss the childlike feeling when they are here. I miss the joyous moments we had. The last few days were spent entirely with them and my life had a sign that says 'DO NOT DISTURB' - yup, I am busy with mama and papa, sorry to put you guys on hold. I took my dad to Agnes Keith's House. It's the first tour attraction in Sandakan I led them to, and I am certainly ecstatic. I visited the place myself several times. We were supposed to be shopping for some personal needs when my aunt called and -theres some twist to the story. Anyway, we ended up in Agnes Keith's House, up the hill we went. This is the house, beautiful isn't it? I smell history in the air *wink wink p.s : no cameras were allowed in the house, so no pictures :( Birdbath, just outside the authentic house. The homey English-style tea house, just a few meters ...
