HOLIDAYSS

Hi guys!

 I'm gonna do this really quick as I am actually waiting for my taxi to LCCT.

So, I'm going back to Sarawak for CNY holidays!!! (Yayyyy)

Ok. Let me be real. Apparently I am not really excited to go back this year because I feel that my class just started, then BAM holidays again.

alright. I know I should be grateful for having this great opportunity to see my family again. Please Lord give me the strength to spend this holidays productively with my loved ones. hehe

And for your information, I'm starting to get busier this year with SATs (skills and applications task) and assignments. Guess there's no more going to Sunway Pyramid every weekend. FOR MY FUTURE. -.-"

But there's one thing that I am really looking forward to this hols, I'm gonna celebrate CNY with my best friend, Apple and her family. I can't wait to visit my old school and childhood friends. (awww, miss them)

OK. So final say from me. Enjoy your break and do something beneficial.. Bye!!!

I AM ANGRY

I am angry
Because the world doesn't allow me to do things I want
To be the next Prime Minister
Or  to be simply extraordinary

I am angry
Because the world doesn't allow me to eat that extra piece of cake
For I will be called 'ugly'
When I gain extra pounds

I am angry
Because the world emphasises more on my looks
What I'm gonna wear and how I'm gonna sit
Instead of the power of my brain

I am angry
Because the world sets an unrealistic standard of beauty
Flawless skin and shiny hair
Fair complexion and pointy nose

I am angry
Because the world keeps on exploiting women
Treating them like objects
To satisfy its own greed

I am angry
Because I allowed myself to be deceived by the world
Chasin' after wind
Running after things that are worthless

I am angry
Because I was so foolish
For letting the world define what beauty is
And wasting my energy
In pursuing these deceptions

I am angry
Because I think too much about others' thought of me
When all that matters is
What I think of myself

I am angry
For I have focused too much on how I look
When I can use my energy
To make a difference in someone's life

I am angry
Because I was drifted away
From what is really important
And idolising things that will never fill up my soul

I am angry
Because I blame the world too much
When it all comes to me
For I have the power to decide
To be shaped by the world
Or to be shaped by God

WHAT'S YOUR MOTIVATION??

I believe that every successful people on this Earth has something or someone to push them beyond their boundaries to achieve their dreams. It can be their parents, God,wealth, fame, or doing their best just to help the less fortunate ones. And these motivations depend on their beliefs and principles that they hold onto. As for me, I always give myself a constant reminder that everything I do is only for God's glory and to be a blessing to other people in many ways, for instance in my studies, relationships with friends and family and involvement in community service.At times, I admit that I fail to focus on glorifying God all the time. Instead of finding ways on how I can bless others, I think of how I can lift up myself and do things I like without having a deep thought whether these things are going to please God. As human beings, we cannot run away from making mistakes.And that's why we need God's grace to save us.

 Like what I have mentioned earlier, everyday I need to remind myself on what is the most vital part of my life.GOD. It's true that is easier said than done. But I just need the faith, discipline and the Holy Spirit to lead me towards my ultimate goal which is eternity with Jesus Christ. And everyday I pray that God will touch my heart and renew my spirit. To obey His words with a joyful heart. In Romans 3:31,"Well then, if we emphasise on faith,does this mean that we can forget about the law? Of course not! In fact, only when we have faith do we truly fulfil the law." This means that only when we have faith in Jesus Christ and love Him above all else, obeying His commandments will be our desires. And one of His wills in our life is to bring glory to His name. Therefore, we have no reason at all not to work hard at what we are doing, be it our studies, work, or even just the act of accompanying a lonely friend because God drives us to do our best for His glory. This is perfectly said in a quote by an anonymous, "God's providence and power are not excuses for being lazy. God wants us to work hard and then entrust the result to Him". How awesome is that? He not only requires us to be diligent and enthusiastic, but to believe that He will take care of the outcomes. He doesn't want us to worry about anything, instead instructs us to pray about everything.

 Moreover, being the salt and light to the world arises my spirit to bless others in many ways as possible. Be it talking to people nicely, encouraging others, treating people well, helping those in need, being friendly and practising selflessness. By doing these, I hope that people can feel God's presence and comfort.And to show them that someone cares. Sometimes, some people may go against you because what you do is something different and considered as not "in" for the society. But like what S. Truett Cathy expounds, "You cannot be a people pleaser to everyone. Even the people who disagree with you will respect you for your convictions."

 In conclusion, strive for excellence in whatever you are doing with the talents, ability, strength and knowledge that God has given you. Use these tools to do good to the world and improve lives worldwide. You need to know that a lot of people out there who are in despair and lack of opportunities to succeed. And it is your responsibility to reach out for these people and help them to be the next extraordinaires and history makers. God bless.
