Just came back from Singapore. I missed my flight and it cost me RM700! So, how i felt when I have no choice but to get a new ticket? I felt the pain but yet the pain didn't really bothers me much ( It did bothers me lah~ normal human reaction right?) What I'm trying to say is, I believe what Ps. Jeff shared about how he was so focus and excited about God's vision in his life.
Though the situation is there right in front of you, the decision is still in our hand of how we should react and how we should it well. Well, in a situation of missing my flight because of my clumsiness, I have no other choice but to smile and buy another ticket. Let's take it another level in another situation called Life.
Wow! Wait, I sound like I'm gonna preach or something. Just some thought ya. L.O.L
Anyway, 2 main things that really impacted me during the camp is about choosing Jesus in our daily life and focusing on God's vision for us. Having God's vision in our mind daily will help us focusing on what we should be doing every single day and live it to the full. Through this, those that are irrelevant to God's vision will slowly fade, with the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, we can work on the vision. Work is never easier than to be spoken about. Be it hard or easy or it didn't work out the way it should be. Choose Jesus. This point really struck me in the head that many times we say "Whether we start our life well or in between we screw it up, let's just end it well", I used to see it in a period of life time. I was wrong. It should be our daily life thing. I should end each day of our life giving an account to God saying "God, I screwed up, I fall asleep in class. I had a lust thoughts towards this girl but God slowly with Your help I turn my focus and try my best to do my revision and try to share Christ with a person today". This is the life I wanna go through. With the help of the Holy Spirit, I believe the front part of the account will slowly change.
God's vision. Choosing Jesus. Both come hand in hand. To walk to the mountains and the valleys of life. Even in the plane when I was thinking life when I was flying back from Singapore to Kuching. Oh ya, talking about that. I really didn't know why but God placed me with a person crying sitting besides me twice! From Kuching to KL and from Singapore to Kuching. Amazing. But it really helps me in my time of reflection.
Just to cut it short, It is as simple as "Our journey to heaven is just like sitting on a plane. Everyone in the plane got different feelings, are in different situations, have different to-do list and different aims in life BUT same destination. Let's just pack our bags and reach our destination well together."
读万件书不如行万里路。 Understand? This is one of the old time Chinese saying that rather than reading anything and everything about it, we will learn more when we travel and experience it ourselves. Really thank God for blessing me to have a trip this holiday to KL for 3 days and 3 nights.
This trip is really different because I'm ON MY OWN! No parent or some one which I believe our parents used to say to us whenever we wanna go for a trip : " Are they any one older to take care for you? ". Me! 20 years of age, finally got a chance to travel on my own. This really gave me a big smile when I'm preparing myself for it.
3 days and 3 nights in KL was incredible. The sad thing is I didn't get to take any PHOTO! Erg! Really gonna wish that I got my DSLR soon. However, I really need to take all those that helped me in teaching me how to use the public transport and picking me up from one place to another. Thanks Gladys and Jason Chai for picking me up from the airport. Really amazing! It really save me a lot of money. Paul, Anna and Wan Ting! I never knew they are so so so so~~ wow! They treated me really like a star. Guide me, pay for me and even asking me whether did I brought this or that like my mum. Thanks guys!
When I was n KL, my main purpose was to shop till I drop but guess what? I bought 1 shirt for myself only. My bro I got him 2 shirts and for my sis, 2 shirts as well. I manage to get a pair of shoe and 2 shorts before I go on to Singapore though.
Now! I'm in SINGAPORE. It's SINGAPORE YOUTH CAMP! I can't believe I'm actually here! I dream to be in the camp since I step into secondary life group and knew about it, if i'm not mistaken, should be about 7 years ago. 7. Like PP always say; 7 a complete number. I, now finally made it here. I'm not going to miss a chance of learning from the youth here, ranging from how they lead their own life to how they lead their people and from the praise and worship team to the multimedia team. Gonna squeeze as much as possible so I can be more equipped and motivated for the future enhancement for youth ministry. One more important thing, I believe is also to let learn to grow more in God myself. Be more matured and see things differently.
Few more hours the camp will officially launch! Going to prepare myself now.
Our character for our game design!!!! So excited about it. Can't wait to see it move.
Oh ya! I forgot to do the most important thing.
The cute lil round pet called NEO.
Cute?
It's actually an inspiration of the cartoon i used to draw called "Yuan" after a few suggestion from the team, this is how it looks like.
Our progress are not as we expected, we really behind time. So we decided not to join next year IMAGINE CUP 2011 in USA but the year after next, 2012. Not sure where will it be but whatever it is, our aim is to develop out the game and our goal is to proceed to the final stage. REALLY REALLY can have a good laugh about it already.
It has been quite sometimes i didn't update my blog since I really got busy with the life in Unimas. Now, it's almost the end of the my first year first semester. It was really a great experience of the my first semester of uni life. One thing for sure, there were ups and downs as well, and I really need God to pull me through.
One thing that I really need to learn through this period of time is to really forgive myself. I never knew forgiving myself is such a big issue. Forgive myself about the things I've done in the past, it was hidden and now God just dig it out and it's really not easy. Besides myself, I believe there are people I need to forgive as well. Too much of sweeping under the carpet of all the unforgiveness. Stop. Don't want to talk about it anymore, just wanna tell myself as God has promised that there are no more condemnation in Jesus' name. A big smelly for myself. =D
Done with the emotional part, there are lots of beautiful things and people God has arranged through this period of time. Too bad I can't really go into detail about it now, I really need to discipline myself to study! Didn't really get a good result for some of my subjects, really need to work hard. Especially this weird subject call DISCRETE MATHEMATICS. Alright! Done done reviving my blog AGAIN.
