Just do it

At time, we find the moment of - stop thinking, just do it!

I have many wish list pending in this bucket. Most of the time, 'I want to do it, this is the golden opportunity, but...' What a BUT that stopping thing from happening. When age is catching, we have much considerations and hesitation.


Hope something is interesting gonna happen. I told my loved one 'there are thing we do it once in a lifetime' :p

So today is Friday. TGIF!
T - Thank
G - God
I - I'm
F - Free!

This weekend highlight is 'my mum's birthday' I just wanted to be with my papa and mama. The celebration doesn't need to be extravaganza..

Till the lovely weekend coming, let me put in effort in my office work, leaning new things everyday - skill set of getting thing done better, the way handling people, the way overcome challenges, the way pushing own self to the corner so I can grow, the way, wipe off the weary and continue to smile :)

Happy Friday!

Fire

This week in Facebook newsfeed, we read lots of news and the effort hundreds people are struggling in the pain of skin being fire burned due to the tragedy in 1 party event at the wetland in Taiwan. As a news reader, from the pictures seen, we feel the pain. Can't imagine the real physical burning pain on these youngsters body. What they need is not only the comfort words and encouragement from public, the journey is still long way to go for them to get medical treatment, fully heal physically.. Challenging most, the emotional, psychological sides as well as the acceptance of public later on...

When I look at Eva's shoulder small spot of hot coffee burn scar.. I feel sorry for her. How she gonna wear spaghetti strips like all other young girls? Will people tease her? Will her future husband cares about it? Would she herself dislike this part of her body?..

Now we are taking about 30%, 50% body part got burnt. Not easy. When they close their eyes, would they see the imaginary fire, hearing the screaming for help... We don't want to be in the tragedy. We don't want our friends and family to be in the tragedy too.. We can afford to see our love one to be in long term suffer.

This made me think of what has been mentioned in the bible.. In the return in Jesus, all the death person would be resurrection.. Then came the judgement gate, if one's name are not in the book of life, then he or she is not allowed to be in the heaven but being sent to the forever fire lake..

启示录 20:14
死亡和阴间也被扔在火湖里,
这火湖就是第二次的死。
Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.

启示录 20:15
若有人名字没记在生命册上,
他就被扔在火湖里。
If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Can't imagine the forever heat and death. I don't want my loved one to be suffered...






约翰福音 14:6
耶稣说:“我就是道路、真理、生命,若不藉着我,没有人能到父那里去。
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

使徒行传 4:12
除他以外,别无拯救;因为在天下人间,没有赐下别的名,我们可以靠着得救。”
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."

Hope all stays healthy, not only our physical body, but also the spiritual soul. When you can feed your tummy with warm food, don't forget, you need salvation for your soul.

Self worth

Lately, been reading posting on how to be a self-love woman, how to be an attractive woman, how to love yourself...


This talks about Victoria mentioned - the love and care from your man vs the effort you put in to yourself is 1:1


This shares about what a woman needed from a man. What a today woman needs comparing to last decade is far different. Nowadays most of the women have the ability to self raise and self earn to maintain the basic necessity of daily life.


What a man can give to a woman is the worthiness of the woman as a special woman. The question is, how to make ourselves as a unique one to increase the value of own-self.

My thought is 1st of foremost, before we can talk about being pretty or charming looking, we shall focus on our health level. A beautiful piece of dress to cover a healthy fit body not a weak one. Lately my children comment about why I like to make 'that sound' when I walk. ??? Puzzled me. 'Ah Yi also has the same sound' then I realised, my legs joints make a soft but clear sound when I move around.

Mummy: ok ok, I am old, legs are weak.. Seem like going to die soon

Children: you are saying ah yi is going to die soon? Come on la.. Is your legs problem go and cure it la
(Shake their heads somemore)

Well, children are having higher wisdom than me >< my silly joke being replied by their professional answer.



Ok ok, will work out something daily to get myself to be on healthy lifestyle, as I have many dreams to realize, may places to travel, many people to meet up and love..

What are in my mind this week..


Thinking of..

Travelling with my parents in law with or without laogong

Bringing my grandma who is paralysed to see the blue sky and catch the fresh air

Travel with my god-ma and share God's love with her

Get my mum's heart disorder sorted soon so she won't feel unwell

Plan for travel trip which my dad been talking about and go and realize in no time

Where to travel when I meet up with my best friends in my age of 40



Noticed that, what is in my mind is - travel and older age. The world is so big, what we want are lots, but we have limited lifespan..

Sounds old huh my thought lately. Shall have fun more with my bbb and Sunday school children, need to have refresh mind :p

Stay young and healthy!
Happy mid week :)

End of June

Good morning. Am feeling full! Thanks Lord for the daily bread for my soul, and breakfast to start my day.


Ya, quite heavy breakfast for today. Kopi-o-kosong, barley panas, nasi lemak bungkus, roti bakar ^0^ maybe I got dehydration from last night jogging, just feeling to drink more and more.

Here comes the ending of month of June 2015. Great things happened in June were..



Easy trip with sis to melbourne






Reached the Great Ocean Road which been hearing people talking on


Nice view relaxed moments



Silly stories collection.. To write my travel story on this destination.. sooner or later ;p

Then, what else in June?



Attended my cousin bro wedding dinner. Snapped a couple pic with laogong. In recent years, found that we seldom take pic - just the 2 of us. Guess, my papa and mama having many couple photos than us in their 帅公美女 photo album :p

In June, most of the night I can listen to the boy playing piano songs. Forced to practice as his grade exam is around the corner.


I am glad that he is now like to explore the piano keyboards. Compare to last time, we as parents needed to convince or scold him so he goes to his class. Now the boy is learning the tone of 'pink panther' as he admired the uncle at the church playing this song nicely.


There was one praise and worship session we in charge in Sunday school. Children are getting familiar and more confident in handling the session. Practices make perfect. Hope one day, they can be on the stage, brave and confident.


We celebrate Father's Day in June too. To me, it is a special year, when we all one family attending Father's Day worship service ^^ there is always double benefits when both parents are listening to a same sermon or parenting talk, so both the parents can practise the same thing with the purpose of, teaching our children to be at right attitude and behaviour.

On Father's Day. My bro in law and parents in law came to our house too. I cooked them simple dinner with my limited cooking skills haha. Short catch up with my mum in law, she shared much too with me :) sometime, what parents need is only only ears, patient hearts and time.


After my in law left my house in the evening, I did the last grab of cake, went back kampung with my boy to visit my papa and mama.



Sempat for a short gathering ^^


Me and papa. Well, I was with a messy look, as the celebration done for the 3 important men in my life, morning, afternoon, then night :D feel loved for having my laogong, papa, and papa in law ^^

At work, many things happened in June too.


Work I am in now is basically talking about process and ideas on continuous improvement. Most of the time, we need to reach out to different teams and department to have joint effort to improve the process efficiency.


Attended 1 training course 'presentation alive' on public speaking. This course is different from the pervious communication and presentation courses I attended, this course made you tabs in front of the class, repeating the same phrase of words from your 3min speech, till the instructor satisfied with your standing position, tone, pitch, gesture, movement, face expression... Well, we could only say, fortune sides those we are brave ;p



This is one of the real workshop which my partner and I in charge to share new concept to group of people. To be honest, I didn't use the presentation technique I learned from the presentation class, as I haven't get used to the gesture and variation tones in my speech that gonna wow people or boo by people haha.



We celebrate Sunday school Sunday too last Sunday.



Impressed to see young children in charge the praise and worship for the day. Nowadays children re brave and confidence that last time, maybe children nowadays are always being snapped in parents camera :)



We attended parents-children workshop. Feeling differently when we discuss a topic with children and everyone giving feedback and idea. We always do this in the office meeting, this round, husband and I need to manage the 3 little ones :)


1st time, I tried to trim gals hair, not only the fringe, but the whole head. Well, thanks to the girls as they are willing to be the guinea pigs haha. Suddenly I got a thought - I want to pick up simple hair cut technique. I used to watch YouTube video on trimming boy's hair, I shall explore more on gals hair too hehe. Interesting..

What else for June?



I started reading more books in my daily life. In the bag, at the sofa corner, on my bed... I have books around me. So I can read a page or 2 whenever I have the waiting time..



What's next for upcoming July?
In the office, many things are in the scheduler from July till November.. For my personal, I shall continue picking up my daily short jog, read more to enhance my knowledge and skill, cook more and rest more :D



Till then, hope you have a great journey in the 2nd half of year 2015!

Loving each other

We started our day with this hymn playing in the car..


主若是玫瑰一朵,
我就是绿叶一片,
主与我心心相印
紧紧的以爱结连,
任凭是风狂雨暴,
同甘苦朝夕相见,
主若是玫瑰一朵,
我就是绿叶一片。

主若是一首诗词,
我就是爱的音乐,
跳跃着高声欢唱,
像一支清歌晨鸟。
主与我此唱彼和,
心灵间默契配合。
主若是一首诗词,
我就是爱的音乐。

我若是冷若冰霜,
主就是冬日太阳,
他热情十架大爱,
感动我铁石心肠。
但愿我溶为溪水,
直流到主爱海洋。
我若是冷若冰霜,
主就是冬日的太阳。

我若是一块荒地,
主就是及时甘霖,
他的恩沛然下降,
滋润我干渴的心。
我不再白占土地,
开花结果扎根深。
我若是一块荒地,
主就是及时甘霖。


If Lord is the rose, I am the green leaf, love connects us in the storm and in good day.
If Lord is lyric, I am the love rhythm, we singing together like the morning birds.
If I am cold hearted, Lord is the sun in the winter, it melts my heart, and leads me to His ocean of great love.
If I am a wasted land, Lord is the sweet continuous rain that moist the land and make me bear fruits.

Children and I talk about the lyrics, talk about the relationship between us and God. In your life ups and downs, God is with us. We shall turn our eyes to Him, as He would never fail us.

We talk about siblings love. Love your brother and sister, as if one day, if you need help, or you want to share your happiness, they wouldn't say no to you, as they can't run away from you. Of course, I explained all these with my silly gestures and jokes.
Angel said - mummy, you are so funny la :D



Today breakfast - steamed Japanese sweet potato. Packed 1 for sis and hang it to her car's handle. Wondering, if she could see it? Luckily she was eating the sweet potato and skin as well in the car :D when I called her up. How nice, if everyday I can prepare warm breakfast for family and have quality talk moment with children.

Lately, I sometime do wake up early to do some housework. Playing hymns then sweeping and mopping floor, it is a bliss in fact. You have the quiet moment while everyone is sleeping. Have clearer mind too. However, it is quite challenging too, to have alarm clock set at 4.30am, then snooze it few times to 5am. Then dragging the tired body and heavy eyes to the kitchen.. It is good, if I can include a morning jogging in this precious ME time too ^^



Pic taken last night in the midst of children were busy packing their smelly-messy school bags.


"Let's have your eyes open big and wide!" Hehe I would take this as another quality bonding moment for a working mother with her always-clearing-homework-at-last- minute children :p




To co-run a workshop today, hope my half day presentation won't bore people off :p

Happy Thursday!

Talk3talk4

Yesterday headline news in local newspaper was on the 14 years old teenager committed suicide due to the pressure received from schoolmates and teachers. Ya, people words kill! So when there is some stories which are not bringing any beneficial to other people, we may choose not to speak it out.


This morning, our in-car topic was talking about handling pressure from people talking. I shared with my bbb, in the corporate world, we have people who likes to create topic to talk to, and sometime, what they are sharing might not be the truth. Same goes to them, in the school, there is surely students who like to pulling people legs, who like to talk non-sense, who like to bully classmates. Let's us bring all the challenges, and disturbed feeling to God, put these students in our prayer, hope for God's guidance and forgiven. Don't be ever to give up your life to these people, this is surely not worthy.



Soon come to month end of June. When we planned our tasks to be done in the office, look at the schedulers, I told my colleague - the scheduler is full every week, then my 2015 would be over so soon.. Then I am reaching to old age soon! Ya. I am no longer easily can call people 'kak' coz I am not young anymore.. Pula people call me 'kakak' hmmm

Happy Friday!

Fishie people

Sometime, we don't get what the result we are looking for after all the effort we put in to accomplish a task / to strengthen a relationship / to gain fame..


The reflection we shall look into are most of the time, within ownself. However, many people are not doing it this way, they started finding fault in other people that caused the failure, or worse still, putting down other people with hope that, no one would notice their failure or imperfection.


Reminding myself and children on this, if there is something not so pleasant is happening, let's finger pointing to ourselves 1st before start looking excuses by blaming other innocent people.


Love each other. We shouldn't feel great and satisfied when people around us are in not so good condition. God created us with His image, given us soul, and of course with lots of love.


You are what comes out of your mouth. Be a good person, but don't waste time to prove it.

2 kinds of people

Like the idea of the below group of comparison


Android or Apple iOS?
Apple for me ^^


My sis is LOL, I am haha :D


If I would like I choose one from the 2, no beer for me. Anyway, I prefer hot drink ^^


Cash or credit card? Now I use card as backup plan, with limited cash in the wallet too :p


Errr.. It depends. If I have something serious to do which I cannot be late, I wake up once alarm ring. If it is an ordinary alarm set, I snooze for 1-2 times :p

Happy Monday!
Children are being good today, go to school happily after 2 weeks of school holidays :)

Dropping by 11june

I know soon, June 2015 gonna pass thru.. Day by day, everything seems moving in fast track. What not been happening last time, now it just happened. The calm sea can always being stirring up a great big wave..


There was a sermon preaching in one of the Sundays. The pastor shared - live our every today, as a 'lifetime' once you open your eyes in the morning, the new life begins. You do all the living activities, then you conclude your day with prayer, then you sleep. We wake up in the next morning, another 'new life' started.

This sounds like Jesus resurrection from his death. You gonna be a new person after resurrection, a 2nd life begin. If we live today as today gonna be the last day, then we tend to be less being bordered by those negative influences, we tend to love and treasure all the beautiful moments that happens around us. We pray the best for our love one, we smile more to people surrounding us, we thank people, we apologise when it is needed, we say 'I love you' more often.

Yesterday I came across an article sharing, meet our parents and loved one frequently, not meeting them in a way of 'good bye visit'. This has reminded me, I shall meet and call my parents more often, and not visit them when only the day before the flying on board. Shall not be unhappy with children and sleep along with the not so happy feeling. Shall say good night to laogong before zzz..

Happy good day to you!

Hello June!

U-hu~ children packing their bags for holiday day trip with teachers and friends. I am bringing my luggage with me too! Going to fly soon, hmm in 13 hours :p



Yesterday got some sincere comments from my work done "too choppy for my liking", which, making my mood being disturbed at the same time, a reminder for myself - the art work being called as an art work when it is with personal style and created with love and passion. You must 1st love your art creation, before people liked it.



Last week, I attended 2-day training program 'effective writing reports, letters, email in business English' or I would prefer to call it as a 'grammer class' or 'correction class' for confidently-mistakes-making English vocabulary used. Most of the time, when there is majority of people are practising the same, the wrong seemed to be right to follow. I enjoyed the class. Like the beauty of English language.

Keep learning and keep improving our knowledge and skillset of , one day, we will appreciate own self for the effort we have been putting in. I like someone saying this - changes are the constant. When we change, wisdom grows.

Reaching office, work 1st then the fun part would be in real soon :D
