Broga Hill

Woots~ The trip to Broga Hill was quite an experience for me XD. Well, last night I couldn't sleep much, I think I only slept for like an hr or so? Haha!! And I thought I was the only one. Body was just so restless!! Not to mention I FORGOT to check Jason's itinerary after he so susah payah go and make for the trip =D. But I just pack on instinct (forgot bring torch.. Hehe!!).

Woke up this morning at 4am, coz guys say they will pick me up frm my hse since they nid passby, hooray for me!! If not I prob dun nid slp d. Haha!! The others had to wake around 3am (PLUS!!) just to meet at Subang n drive up to my place to Semenyih. Awesome~ XD!! Went in 2 cars, the car I went in had Shawn (driver), Geoffrey, Maula n me. Next car had Jason (driver), Yong (his friend we met today) and Sam. Yea... Unfortunately only girl =(.

So yea, we reach destination, the foot of the hill, at 6am I think. Oh!! Here is the Jason's itinerary =D.

4.30am - Meeting point after picking people up. (This applies only for the 2 drivers)
4.40am - Depart to *** to pick Rachel up. It's on the way to Semenyih.
4.55am - Depart from *** to Semenyih.
6.10am - Reach Semenyih. I'm giving extra free time so that we can afford to get lost for awhile just in case. Start hiking.
7.15am - Reach the peak. It has 3 or 4 peaks so you guys can choose which to go.

The rest of the day is up to you guys to decide. We'll be having small breaks in between our hike.


Essential Items Needed:

1. Torchlight. Small/Big doesn't matter, as long as it can help you see the road.
2. 500ml bottle of water. You need water. If you can stand the weight, bring more.
3. Extra cloths. Bring an extra shirt and/or pants if you want. You'll start sweating definitely. Either that or things would get really dirty.
4. Please wear shoes. Something comfortable or sports shoes would be better. You'll need the grip and comfort.
5. Attire would be a comfortable t-shirt and shorts/track bottoms. You won't encounter too much of grass because there is a quite clear cut road to go up.
6. You might want to bring along biscuits or bread in case you need extra energy or if you're hungry.


Car Sitting:

Car 1 - Jason's Car - Sam, Jason, Jason's friend
Car 2 - Shawn's Car - Shawn, Maula, Rachel, Geoffrey


Yes yes, and there you have it. We were QUITE on time =D. We actually reached the peak around 645am. We estimated that it took us..45-50min to climb the first peak. Yes FIRST peak.. Haha!! The view was amazing.. It look almost like lookout point except.. more BIGGER/WIDER XD. The aircond (wind) was so nice~ Shawn nearly slept there, making me tempted to slp too.


It was still quite dark when we reached the peak. So we sat around waiting for the sun to rise. Sadly it got blocked by clouds =(. The sky was like gettin brighter by the sun was still block by clouds. Aihz aihz.. Nvm, since no sunrise, climb next peak lor. Haha!! Few of us were tempted to hike up when we reach the first peak coz the 2nd peak had lots of greenery, look nicer =P. Haha!! Surprisingly, it was MUCH easier to climb compared to the first one. Joke joke then took group photo..suddenly it started to drizzle. Down the hill we go. Seriously.. Its SOOO much easier climbing up than DOWN. When going up I didnt need much help, but when going down.. Haha!! I think I slowed Jason down. Sorry Jason!!

When we reached the foot of the hill again, the guys changed out of their sweaty T-shirts, I find this unfair that guys can change anywhere they want -.-". I had to like sit in the car enjoy aircond while waiting for them to change... Not to mention listening to them joke bout me being lock in the trunk to change or lock in the car with Geoffrey's "towel" to change. Bleh =P!!


Couldn't recognize myself here >.<

Well, when they were done we went makan brunch at McD =D!! Jason took us through a lot of roundings XD. Its like, u-turn here, then curve there, then curve here n u-turn there. Lol!! Poor Shawn XD. I get to change at McD!! Hooray for public toilets!! While eating Geoffrey suggested to go on with movie, Inception. Or his version, "Interception". Lol~ Jason, Sam n Yong sat out of it. Sad~ You guys missed out a lot of fun =P.

We watched at leisure mall, but we reached too EARLY. Earliest movie was 1hr away frm the time we reach thr. So... Yea, I took them on a tour in leisure mall XD. Its my FIRST time seeing guys sooo fascinated by toys. Haha!! We went to all the toys shop, the guys seem to have a phobia of pink shops, and they kept playing with the toys, testing them out, oh n the pillows n dolls... Lol~ (Hope there weren't suppose to be secrets here XD). Sad they didnt bring their camera. Lots of funny pics that could've been taken.

Well, time for Inception!! We were NEARLY late, but was not. Cause Maula thought only 15min passed, but when Geoffrey saw the time, it was actually 45min passed. Lots of difference.. Anyway, we reached the cinema in time. Seats were comfy, Maula said he would try to slp. Haha!! Throughout the show is like suspense n cannot even blink. My eyes hurt for awhile just frm watchin. I think i held my breath too. Haha!! At the end of it, Maula was like wide awake. So was Shawn n Geoffrey. Haha!!

Then yea.. Tht was it for today ^^. Came back. Slp slp~ Dream who-knows-wat. Haha!! But yea.. I rarely hangout with these guys, its been really fun ^^. Thanks guys!! A gud way to start the semester? I think so =)

Loves ^^

Its Foolishness I Know




Always felt like learning to dance properly you know =P. Its like, theres this urge in me since young to learn hiphop or popping. Just never really made time for it. But whenever I hear songs like these, they just wanna make you get up and dance.

Dancing, I know how some ppl find dance movies crappy or sucky. Sorry lar, but I just really like watching them =P. It makes me smile, its another one of those adrenaline pumps XD.

Even during worship, I just cant help sometimes to wanna dance. Dunno dance, so what do you do? Jump lor XD. Jump jump!! It brings laughter.

Its foolish, but it makes you smile doesn't it? =P

Lord May Your Name Be Praise Each and Every Day with Joy in our Hearts.

Running Through My Head

No matter how many times I felt it, no matter how long I'll feel this way, it somehow till now still yet seems like its not the right time. I know I talk bout this often but really... Aihz.. Unfortunately, it really is one of my often problems. I always thought the reason I always think like this was because I hadn't tried or refrain myself from being in a relationship. But then.. Why can others feel ok? Yet I sometimes yearn to be in one?

Sometimes I wonder whether I am scared of heart break. Another time I would wonder was it because I haven't been in a relationship that's why I always feel this way.... Or is it really.. that my time hasn't come yet. Or that I am not yet ready for such a commitment. Am I scared I can't commit? Ok, that just made me sound like a player. Ugh..

Recently yes, I had nearly taken another step towards "trying" to be in one. Somehow I dunno is it God's timing or what. It didn't happen. And after awhile of solitude, a thought came to me "am I rushing?". Not just that, feelings of thinking to be "single-is-better" comes back again. Lord, Lord, what am I to do.

It is said,
14For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. - 2Corinthians5:14-15

In other words, no longer should we live as one living to please oneself, but to seek the needs of others first. Thus fulfilling the 2nd greatest commandment I guess, "love your neighbours as yourself".

Later on another verse came to me,
9And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 10so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ - Philippians1:9-10

Love in knowledge and depth of insight? Hm.. Don't get it there. To have the knowledge and depth of insight on the understanding of love so that I may be able to discern on how to remain pure and blameless before God on judgement day. Hm.. Possible? I quite get that.. To always remain pure and blameless. Not just pure physically, but pure Spiritually.

A lot of people, well, quite a few always say that when they do not think about their relationship and who they are going to be with, that is mostly the time that they are ready to be in a relationship. All because they are contented with God. They are so.. trusting with everything God does. They just know somehow that God will do something, but they dunno what.

Hm.. Probably sound very immature now. But.. Yea.. Even myself just posting this, I guess that kinda means that I kinda worry? That I haven't fully allowed God to take control? Hm.. All the more, would it mean that its still not time? That I'm not ready? I kinda wonder..

Being blank/"innocent" bout relationship stuff. I wonder is it really that good. I can see it in some ways but some ways sometimes don't look too good either. Wonders~

Anyway, time for bed. Nite~

Difference

Now why did I change the blog layout to snow.. Actually.. I myself didnt realize that I was putting snow as my background. At first felt like it was a bit cold and (bland?) when I was halfway through. Then I remembered why I put it.. Different.

I always desire to try things differently. No matter how bad I know it will turn out XD. Don't ask me why but I just have that desire to try things sometimes some ppl don't dare trying. Oh, the reason I change was coz I was starting to feel used and normal to this blog. No longer felt like I was owning it. So yea, change.

Anyhow, here is the first idea (felt it was a bit off):


Here is the second (also the current):



Any comments?? Or suggestions?

Holidays

Holiday holiday.. Hm.. Wat have I done.. First 2 weeks were packed with outings. Then followed by few out of the house nights. Oh!! Got a haircut with large perms at the ends. Feels funny without my straight hair >.<.... I miss my straight hair sometimes!! Hm.. Then then, laze at home sick. Felt so... lazy and... lifeless.. Sit in room, on the comp, stare at comp then lie on the bed, read books, walk around the house.. Suddenly found sister's korean drama show. Then watched it non-stop for 2 days, "He's Beautiful". Unsatisfied ending... The lovers couldn't get together cause found out they were step-sister and step-brother. Siblings of the same father but different mother. After the show, was getting better. Decided to COOK. Yes yes... Have been cooking few days now. Cleaning the chicken is quite a nasty job at first. Now getting the hang of it. Other than that... Hm.. Tried my first baked chicken. Came out nicely ^^. Suprisingly, but it was really great. Haha!! Tomoro gonna learn to make that pork fried rice. Yummm~

A bit lazy to upload photos these few blogs nowadays. Hehe~ Bear with me =P

What Am I Doing???

Holidays started, I have been going out. Meeting up with old friends, making new friends, bonding closer with recent friends... Seems like my life quite bz. Busy with what? Busy with ppl in my life.

Part of me wonders.. Like even now? What am I doing with my life? Just coz I decided to focus and give my best in studies to God, does that mean service to Him now comes after studies? Reading the book Nehemiah.. I even just begin to ask myself, "Where had that fire gone to?", "What is my passion now?", even better!! A question just pop into my head.

WHERE IS MY FOCUS??


Well?? Am I ready to stand on my own 2 feet without my parents or those who support me? I sometimes question myself. Another weird thing which recently happened. Dare I test the water that lead me to the path of relationship? How does things now make it different? How do I tell if God is giving green light?

Today went and watch eclipse with Tif and Vince. One part the movie I would like to quote, where Bella's friend was giving a speech. She was saying that in life, we should take risk and chances of going into wrong paths, cause thats how we'll learn. Me thinking, if thats the way life works, there sure is gonna be a lot more of pregnancy cases coming up. Loving and breaking is gonna be a trend that divorce probably won't mean a thing soon.

Hm.. I dunno.. Its like, hearing the BIG 2(!!) coming.. It just feels like thrs is a lot more we nid to consider. Or even just knowing that I might not be living under the same house as my parents for few yrs/months... What would happen?

So many new things I am experiencing each day. What should I expect next?
