BBQ on CNY^^

Went to my senior's house near Korea University and had indoor BBQ there^^
I must admit that it's my first time having BBQ on the 1st day of CNY~
It's much easier to prepare than Chinese food where you need to buy lots of ingredients.
For BBQ, all you need is a just meat~~~ and probably some kimchi and garlic and bean paste to go with it^^

But again, spending CNY eating BBQ is an interesting experience, but not one that I want to have every year.
Hmm....is it the type of life I'll be living if I stay here and work after I graduate?
I prefer the visiting type of CNY back in Msia~~

Anyway, going to my senior's house again after nearly 2 years brings back a lot of memories.
The 1st time I set foot on their house was Feb/March 2006 on the day they just moved to the house.
The 2nd time was about a few weeks later when they had house warming.
And this is the 3rd time...
2 years gone..
Just like that..

Happy CNY 2008~ ^^

Came back from China on the 2nd.
Spent the last 4 days meeting friends and juniors.

Though this is not my 1st time spending CNY overseas, it's some how very different from the previous few times.

In 2005 and 2006, all my friends from my Batch couldn't go back so we ate together, played together and visited each other.

This year however, all my Batch's friends are back in M'sia except for a Malay and an Indian. Haha, guess we're representatives for each of our race^^

Kindda miss the happy joyous Chinese New Year atmosphere back in Malaysia.

Here in Korea though they do have celebration, they celebrate by going to their granparents house, eat there and talk there.
No visiting culture like what we have in Malaysia.

But still, glad that I have juniors and seniors who didn't go back to M'sia.
Spent last night eating "Reunion Dinner" with them and going to my senior's house later today^^

Boasting^^

something that i've come to notice:

I'm right most of the time^^

but the way i convey my thoughts makes people do not believe in me.

and at the end of the day I say "I told you so~"

and I hurt their feelings...

Fast & Pray Training Course

well, actually the name is just 금식수련회, fasting camp/training,
but to me fasting is meaningless without praying, and the whole theme of the camp was more on praying than fasting.

It's a annual camp by Korea CCC.
3 regrets I had last year was
1. Not joining the Fast and Pray Camp
2. Not joining Gideon's Training
3. Not joining 순장 Training

So the main reason I stayed back this winter is to participate in all 3 camps, and STMT as well.

The camp was from Dec 26-29, with a total fast of 7 meals.
It was indeed a great time for me, being away from my normal daily routine and just spending time talking to God and to hear what He has in store for my future.

1 Challenge I had was to start a OCF, Overseas Christian Fellowship in Korea Uni next year.
I'm quite certain it's a task God wants me to do, but well,
if it's not God's will it will just not come into being right?
So no harm in trying~ ^^

Happy 2008~ ^^

My last paper for my last semester in Dongyang Technical College ended 3 weeks ago on 12 Dec.
But just didn't take the time to post anything up.

Life has been great~
Went for a few movies during the last 3 weeks^^
And by collecting 33,000 points for CGV (name of a cinema) I'm officially a VIP for 2008~

Looking back at 2007:
there's just too many things to be grateful about. just to list a few:-
1. Meeting CCC freshman 순원~
2. Soon Gathering with Ling Yen, Ruying, Lionel, Adrian, Ting Yong and 성화.
3. CM 2007
4. Mongolia STMT
5. Meeting my new mentor, my 아빠 순장님~
6. Reconciliation with a few of my friends during the last week of 2007
7. and ya, a clearer vision of what God wants with my life

Looking to a better 2008 ahead^^

Finally~ MId Term Exam is Over

Finally after 3 weeks my mid-term exam is over.
Sat for 6 papers all in all. For the first 5 I think I did quite well, but for today's paper.....whew~
I mean, it's a chapter I studied once last sem (ok, half the chapter), I spent a few days preparing for it, doing all the even number questions in the book, had more confidence that the previous 2 sem, yet it's the worst out of this 3 semester of Engineering Mathematics.....

Thus once again proving that "Input= Output" is a false statement.

What I'm more upset about is that I actually KNOW how to do all the questions, but just a few minor +,- mistakes at the beginning leading to a horrible end...........

Anyhow, glad that the mid term exam is over and I can enjoy life for the next 4 weeks before my Final Exams...

All the best to all you who're preparing for your exam out there~ ^^

CM 2007

I'm now here at Busan, here for the Leadership Conference held before at Bexco.

Went to Incheon airport this morning and met with the other foreigners before coming down to Busan together.

Arrive at the airport at 8.30am. At the counter I saw Malaysia CCC team members, 19 of them from Sabah and Sarawak, who flew in from KK on the 27.

Then about an hour later met up with the other MCCC people who flew in from KL. there were all in all 153 of them. I never knew that Malaysia has so many CCC members and I never thought that so many of them would actually make it here to Korea. Praise be to God who brought them here safely and may He continue to be with them that they may have a blessed them here for the next whole week.

Checked into our room at around 7.30pm. Seoul Sourthen District CCC memebers will be staying at Grand Hotel.

Mine's a standard room. But instead of a twin bed we have 2 single beds. It looks quite nice in this photo and it is indeed quite nice. But imagine squeezing 6~8 people in it.......

STMT After

Short Term Mission Trip After, meaning gatherings after our short term mission trip.

As our team that went to Japan was made up of students from different campuses, we (Korean students) usually have STMT After.

We had our gathering at Cheonan, a city about 2 hours by subway from Seoul. It was great to see everyone after the STMT^^

20 years old....

No more "teens" for me...ㅠ.ㅠ From today, I'm officially 20 years old... It's not a short time.... Probably a third to a quarter of my life...if I should live till 60 or 80. Many ups and downs... Yet one thing for sure... God has always been there with me...^^ And He has given me a lot of good friends and family^^ Thank you God^^ Thank you to all my friends^^

DYTC 06/07 Committee Member

On Sep 9, we officially become the Committee Members of our campus CCC. Usually 2nd-4th year students are selected to be Committee Members of their campus' CCC, but due to our campus situation (most of the courses are 2 years course), 1st year students are elected to be Committee Members.

I had been looking forward to it, being the 1st Malaysian student in Korea Campus Crusade for Christ^^ I was eagerly looking forward to this moment. Hoping that I can bring some change to our Campus, waiting and praying for our juniors that will be coming in next year, carrying out all the program es and events in our Campus etc...
