The joy of lil' cousins

Yes. Children grow up real fast. So i thank God i got to spend time with my cousins in Hong Kong. Plan to visit my twin cousins in the states sometime, next year maybe? (pray for the money to go). I don't wanna miss meeting them at this point of their lives. I want them to grow up knowing who 'this cousin from malaysia is' and it's really a great JOY to have spent time with children when they're really young, small and carefree. It just kicks all my personal troubles..*sigh* i really want to go next year (huge wish in my heart)

So, since i went to Hong Kong, i shall post some pics of my cousins!!!!

A trip in the clouds

After approximately 80 seconds or less, she has gone against gravity to move upwards into the air. Up and up, she feels the pressure and the feeling isn't the most comfortable as the plane tilts upwards. The engine is loud and the wind is strong on the outside. 

Staring out the window, the ground decreases in size. From her view, roads doesn't seem as complicated anymore as a sort of pattern forms and she tries to make a shape or picture out of it. She gives up. 

Then the adventure begins. Imaginations went wild and hopes started to form. As the plane goes higher, she sees a flat layer of light cotton as if the earth has an invisible ceiling. Seconds later, there's just no more green to be seen...white cotton was everywhere. As it cleared, the blue sky appeared once again and more and more puffs of clouds came into the scene and her eyes hurt from staring outside for too long. 

A few minutes later, she couldn't help but look again. The sky felt like the scariest place to be as there was no end in sight. The only option to do was to talk to God and tell Him the fears and uncertainty in her heart and also how amazing it is that the sky looks infinite and also the fact that traveling by air is no big deal. 

The view was awesome. She wished she could open her window and reach out to grab a few puffs of clouds and keep it in an air tight container. Then again, clouds are not solids, it's shape can't be contained in anything...*sighs* so there goes the imagination. But the view of the enormous groups of them still amazed her, which brought her back to a world of her own. The temptation  to bounce on them and lie on them to feel a cool sensation grew strong. She sighs one more time and thanked the Lord for the amazing picture. 

The clouds were so thick and so blindingly white. It hurt to stare but it was just so amazing. People say "take a picture, it'll last longer", and she did. It didn't look as real but it was good enough. Satisfied by the scenery, she pulled down the window shade to keep the sunlight away.

The flight back wasn't as awesome since there were hardly any clouds and the daylight was decreasing. The sky was getting darker and it just didn't look as attractive. As the sun began to set more, the sky turned colourful. This scene gave a really romantic and soothing feel. The colours blended and merged together so well it looks as though someone had just painted a piece of art using watercolour. I wished i could produce a picture on paper that looked exactly like that. The picture on camera looked fake. The lighting was different and the colours didn't look as soft. I longed for a really cool camera that could capture the real thing. 

When the outside was pitch dark, dots of lights on land had me thinking for a moment that "Hey! those look like stars in the sky!".

When the plane touched down, i thanked God for bringing me home safe and sound. I'm glad to be back where i don't feel so alien and have to speak chinese all the time. hahaha.


Note to self : Air asia, tsk tsk tsk..

Ever wondered when surprises will end??

So far, NEVER.

It all started with a visit by two lonely people..haha kidding kidding.. 

I decided to sleep early since i was tired from such a tiring week of finals and also because i didn't feel myu birthday coming..But... 

at 11.30pm, Cheewoh and Josh came over!! and i got a tub of...ICE CREAM!!! mmmm...their reason for such a present is to help me cope with the weather and its somewhat like my home (supposedly some where cold since the penguin nickname sticked). And we spent about 2 hours talking about theology..haha..it was pretty interesting since i've never had one..deep stuff i tell you..What a special topic to be discussed on my 19th birthday... 

I'm not sure if i will have this again next year..there's always a point in study life where friends go overseas to study. One goes, and i'm left with one less friend. Pretty sad..oh well... 

On the first of May, i was to meet a handful of friends for lunch to do a small celebration..turned out, there were 10 people! We had a good time at the lunch table, and a time of berbonding session..well we tried.. 

I got a pair of cool funky shades which i could never wear out but they were so cute! Got the book i've been wanting and a ring!! which i had No clue how they got away with it without me looking..but i was soo happy i could have screamed and hugged them all at once! haha..A warm and fuzzy purple-black scarf and a sweet photo frame  =) 

I HAVE AWESOME FRIENDS!!! 

Sadly, it rained in the night...so i had japanese dinner with family..the rain kinda killed the mood but it was a good time..and oh!! of all times, mummy made me eat raw salmon by free will. hehe..i did, but the texture was yucky. I mean, i like jello and all but having to chew a piece of meat which is raw is pretty eeky this way..haha..well at least my boyfriend in Future wouldn't have to spend so much when it comes to japanese food.. 

Went home, had awesome tiramisu cake!! mmm...dessert is just so good you know? 

On sunday, i was all ready to go for my retreat. PULSE in church was good..made a new friend, who was the friend Shok chen was talking about. Had a great time..was a little disappointed i couldn't stay for the service..again, i had to leave Shok Chen even after she came all the way. But i thank God for her enthusiasm..and i pray the fire will Never go out..

And so, my friend picked me up and we met everyone else at the ministry house. Had a meeting with Dr Goh...sometimes i think "wow, the vice president is the advisor for the 12th CF in HELP UC!!" which is soo amazing...hehe.. 

And there! a surprise i sooo did not expect!! i thought we were all gonna go to melaka and maybe celebrate with a piece of cake there since we were all gonna be busy..but then there was Daim cake from IKEA!!! THE WHOLE CAKE!!! awesooooomme!!! Even they had wrapped up gifts for me..how sweet and loving is that?? i got more amazing books and a beautiful butterfly necklace. 

What more can i ask than friends who made extra effort to text me or visit me or buy pressies for me and even spend a day with me?? Friends i haven't even know for a year, friends which i don't even know how many people there are in their family...
