Monday blues

Yesterday I blogged bout me eating durians. Today, I am going to blog bout me fallen sick. Well I do not know why but my body is heaty at the moment. I mean my body is hot now. I guess I am down with fever. Am going to.. Well today had been a day. A tiring day.. So to say. Office's air-cond has not been working properly. "As usual." And now with the latest update of me eating durian the day before had caused me having a even worst day of life. I am down with fever. Actually not really fever yet. Just that my body is having a warm temperature now. And I felt so weak. Guess tomorrow I am not going to work. "Again."
Why I say again? Well last Monday I was having a body ache. I mean I am not feeling well. Therefore I took half a day off. Tomorrow is Tuesday. I would be taking another day off. Consider it medical leave. Well have not been going to see doctor throughout this whole first half a year until last Monday. And tomorrow would be the second medical leave I guess I would need.
This morning I had submitted a transfer form back to Kampar. Well had wanted to do this for so long but no opportunity come. And guess what? Last week an internal e-mail from the Human Resource came and it stated that whosoever wanted to transfer can do so transparently. I mean last time I had to do it behind my boss' back. But now. Now I can do it openly since there my big boss wanted us to occupy the post back in Kampar. Well I guess why not I make it a try. If failed, at least I had tried. =) So there I go. Submit the form to HR. Wonder what they would do though. Cause for one thing it had never be done in my company though. Not that I know of. I guess this is one opportunity I should not miss eh? =)
Anyway my stay here had expired. I was told that the house that I am staying at the moment is going to be taking back by the owner if there is no one staying. Currently me and Paschal are the only tenant in the house and I am the chief tenant. Well I told the owner that I might leave anytime if the calling for me to go back to Kampar had come. The problem is I wasn't sure when. So when the master room tenants moved out one week plus, my stay here had been re-considered. What I mean by that? Well my house have four rooms; namely (my small room), Paschal and another China guy occupy the middle room and the fourth room is master room. The trouble came when the master room tenants moved out of the house mid of this month after they had completed their studies in KDU.
At the same time, the SIB international students cell group whom were in charge of the house had also disband due to because most of the students had gone back to their respective countries. In fact the cell group leader, Ms Jean Gan couldn't handle anymore cell because of her job. So in the end, the house had became empty. Me and Paschal were left in the house. As for the tenant that rent the other middle room, he went back to China and till now we do not have any news bout him. His rental for the month of July had not been paid and at the same time, his belonging was left unattended. So we actually are not very sure what is going on with him.
Paschal, in the other hand had plan to go back to Nigeria and wasn't sure of what he is going to in September onwards. I mean he is hoping to get a job in Malaysia and according to a lot of contacts that I have that I had asked bout introducing job to him, they told me it's hard for them to get a job in Malaysia. So with that in mind I am not sure what is going to happen in his life.
Yesterday, the owner of the house came and gave me a shocking news. Since everyone is not sure of what is going to happen to them after Septemeber, there is a family friend of the owner who are interested in renting the whole house for a temperory of six month so that their actual house would be given away for renovation. So in that sense if I could not find a tenant within yesterday until Thursday (31st July) the owner would give us one month notice to move out of the house. But her intention of renting this house for us with no rent increase is because she want to bless the Christians and open the house for fellowship. I mean she wanted the people who stays here in the house to use it like a mission house. Blessing other Christians. Christian Fellowships, cell groups etc etc etc.. That's her only intention. So from now until 31st July I hope that there would be somebody or any Christian organisations who are interested in using the house for their fellowships. Whatsoever church also can use it.
Anyway its getting late now.. Got to rest oredi. Tomorrow taking medical leave. God bless..

Trip to the orang asli's

This weekend has been wonderful weekend for me. I went to Orang Asli kampung under Orang Asli ministry of The Life Chapel, Petaling Jaya. Well this was my second trip there. The first time was held last month. To be precise it was held every last weekend of the month. My first trip there was last weekend of June. Anyway the kampung we visited is Kampung Pelawan, Mentakab, Pahang. The kampung we visited is actually quite developed. The church building were built with mortar and brick. Not those wooden or hut type of building. =)
Anyway yesterday we started our journey from 2pm onward and arrived there at 5.30pm. Throughout the journey we managed to drop by places for makan purposes. Managed to drop by friend banana or pisang goreng stall and had some nce time for tea. On the way we managed to buy quite a bunch of durians for tea and for dinner for our extra dish purposes.
I managed to get a very nice 12 hours or sleep which I did not really had during my working weeks. Managed to get some pictures during the first trip there but due to computer manintenance I did not managed to upload it. Will try to upload it soon. =)
Actually our job during this visit was to distributes goods and unwanted products to the kampung people. Well I guess they are so much richer than us in the sense each time we go there they would get lotsa unwanted quality clothes and products that benefits them. Some of them even go as far as branded clothes. As for me the church people, we only wear simple and normal clothes to church and they wore quality clothes donated by us. But then throughout the journey for the past two trip there the OA leader whom I called as Dr George, he managed to carry lots of unwanted things for the orang asli for each trip. I am amazed at how generous they all are. Okay la. Those might be products that they do not want anymore but yet each trip the van would be pack with the donated product. I mean how marvelous can our Lord be some more. Praise Him for all that He had given to the orang asli.
And guess what? I managed to eat more durians today. Well pre-lunch I managed to wallop more durians. These durian are of quality type. And it taste good. =) In fact throughout the journey there yesterday afternoon until just now as I arrive home, the van was full of durian's smell. =) And what a smell it was.. Yummy.. =) And somehow or rather one of my greatest achievement was I am able to plant some durian tree during my stay there. Okay la. Not a good planter. But then durian seed can be throw on the soil and it would grow by itself. So no worries bout that. Managed to taste some nice mangosteens as well... And drank hill water as well.. =)
Anybody want to join? Next trip would be 23rd to 24th of August. =) Third weekend of the month cause the following weekend would be a long weekend. So that weekend we would take some rest.. =) God bless..

Resigning thought

It has been nearly a week since the incident happened. Well what may had happened? You may asked. Well last Wednesday my director and my manager had a discussion over my job evaluation or performance. My manager gave me a satisfactory in everything I performed during work. When my director heard of it, he was not so happy. In fact he was very disappointed with me. He told me I should get good remark and not satisfactory remark in performing my task. He then gave me two options. 1st I either resign or 2nd I work harder. I was thinking how much more can I work hard if I were to be the only one working. The rest of the staffs were just doing their simple job. And each time things gone wrong, I would be the one who would get it. How fair can it be?
Anyway since my director had gave me these two word of "I resign" my heart is not really for the company anymore. I mean how could I work there anymore if my director and manager were like wanting to abandon me already. So now I am looking for a new way out. Planning to resign but then I missed my colleagues a lot. I mean they were there to support me. Not really support me though but then they listens to me. Each time I told them what to do in order not to get scolded they listens without asking questions. At the end of the day, everything turns up well between me and them. And now they are sad that I am planning to leave them. Don't know lah. I am quite confused now. I actually reluctantly to leave my company because of them. I mean there is nothing there for me to miss except for the fact that my colleagues are part of my family. Anyway I do not think I can last long in my company anymore. The most is end of this year I would be no more in the company. The earliest I want to leave the company would be end of August and the latest would be end of the year. I guess there is nothing for me there and I hope that I managed to brought a legacy down to them. I mean they had been working like china man mentality where they are told to do work and yet when other people needed help none of them give the person a hand. I may not be the perfect employee in the company but then I guess helping others from other departments would do us more good.
My aunt from JB told me that when we work we should focus only on our work. But what other department do we should not interfere. I guess she is right. But at times when they need our help let us be the Christian by action and not word. Let us try to help them.
Too many time Christians live by word and not action. At the end of the day, they are just no different than the Pharisees. When we called them that they got offended. I do not know what Christian thinks nowadays. The Bible taught us to live by faith and by action. Not just Word alone. So let us learn to do that. If us being a Christian just say we are Christians and yet does nothing to help others, then might as well don't call ourselves Christian. Give shame to God only.
Anyway I still do not know what future lies ahead. Hope things turn well and all glory to God. =) God bless..

13 favourite Youtube music video that I love the most

Wow!! It has been quite some time since I last blogged. I guess I had became a seasoned blogger instead of regular blogger. Well my computer is still hospitalised and the CPU that I am using now is still my house mate's CPU. =(
Recently I had checked up quite a few YouTube video and I reckon I had found my top 12 list of my favorite YouTube videos. I am listing it down here for everybody's enjoyment. Here goes. =)

My top 12 list of favorite YouTube video are:

No.12


This song, I Like Chopin was sang by Paul Mazzolini nicknamed Gazebo. I first knew about this song was from the Hong Kong group called Grasshopper or in Chinese they are called 草蜢. They were quite popular during the 90's. Below are the Cantonese version of I Like Chopin by Grasshopper called 再見 Rainy Days.



No.11


This song called Always and was sang by Jon Bon Jovi. I find this song more energetic than his other song, It's My Life. I first knew bout it since the album called That's What I Called Music came out in the mid 90's.

No.10


This song, Dance With My Father Again by Luther Van Dross was the song I dedicated for all fathers during the Father's Day last month. This song was quite a touching song though. I mean to me la. And it reminds me of how my parent had been very protective over me when I was a young boy. How a father would care and be there for his sons or daughters. Well the singer had passed away on 1st July 2005. 3 years and 13 days already. May God bless you, Luther. Rest in peace.

No.9


This song is called Hey Jude by The Beatles is all the time one of my favorite song ever. I do not know why I like the song but I guess it was because this song was my intro to English rock song. =)

No.8


This song is called Yesterday sang by The Beatles again is one of the popular song ever sang before. In fact it is always popular. Don't know why but I just like it. =P

No.7


For most of us who had watched this movie, this song is the theme song of The Curse Of The Golden Flower starring the singer of this song, Jay Chou. Well this song is called 菊花台 or Ju Hua Tai in PinYin (Chinese word simplified). Although I am not a fans of Jay Chou but I like this song. Very nice music and you can hear erhu (a Chinese musical instrument) being played there. =)

No.6


This song is another favorite song of mine sang by John Lennon. I do not know whether he sang it with the remaining member of The Beatles but this song is super nice for me. I like its lyrics and tune as well. The title of this song is called Happy Christmas (War Is Over). I know Christmas is still long to go but hey Happy Christmas (War Is Over).

No.5


This song is called 你的名字我的姓 sang by Jacky Cheung or in Chinese 张学友, a well known singer from Hong Kong, known as one of the Hong Kong's Heavenly Four. I do not know the meaning of the song but for direct Chinese translation it is called Your Name, My Surname. I don't get the meaning, ok? =P

No.4


This singer is called Valen Hsu or in Chinese 許茹芸 is my most favorite Chinese female singer. She is not only cute and pretty and sweet. Not many people likes her song though. Her songs are mostly sad songs. But but I like her because she have a powerful voice. I saw her profile and it says that she is a Christian. Praise God for that. By the way this song is called 如果雲知道 or direct Chinese translation, If Sky Knows.

No.3


This song called Imagine is sang by Charlotte Church. Though she is not the original singer for that song, but I like her voice for that song though. I mean opera voice though. Not bad. The same goes below.



Josh Groban also sang the sang beautifully. But the original song was sang below.



The original song was song by John Lennon from The Beatles again. Well people may say hey that's a Communist song though. I mean no religion and everything we share. Well you are right. But if we see at a different point of view where Christianity is not about religion but it is about relationship. Then we shall see all things differently. Yet when I say we share stuff I do not mean share it blindly. But we share it with wisdom. Well I mean that's my point of view. If you can't accept it please comment. I am hoping for comment though. =) Thanks.

No.2


Nothing can beats this song Reflection sang by Christina Aguilera. The song is the theme song for Mulan. It reminds me of my past, my reflection towards my past.

No.1


I had dedicated this song in previous blog. And I guess of all the 12 songs I nominated as my favorite songs in my life or as in YouTube I guess this would be my most favorite. Sang by Sting and the title is called My Funny Friend and Me. Well all in all I would like to dedicated this song to you all my fellow friends, whom I had known till now. Why I choose this song? Well I guess God created us all funnily. Don't you think so? We are created in a way by God with a different character in life. We are not the same and yet we are able to live together. Ain't that a miracle? Anyway may God bless you all. For your information, this is the original music video. I am not very sure what is the original music video but if not mistaken the original music video is The Emperor's New Groove. You can get the YouTube below.



Finally and not the last, I would like to dedicated this 13th song to our beloved Jesus Christ. I mean I had dedicated the whole 12 favorite song of mine to you all and now this specially dedication is for our beloved Jesus Christ. Here goes.

This song is called The Stand sang by Hillsong United. The lyric is attached below. God bless.. =)

The Stand

You stood before creation
Forever within Your hand
You spoke all life into motion
My soul now to stand

You stood before my failure
And carried the cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand

So what can I say
And what could I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You

So I’ll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand

So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours
