You've just went through a bad day, things does not seem to be working out, you go to work/school just to get rejection from friends or you had a lashing from the boss, you are at a place full of friends to be with but you still feel out of place, you go back home just to feel worse, you feel lonely,tired,sorrow is in your heart, before that your car must had cause you some trouble, you might have had some problem, when you finally reach to the end of the day, you sigh a day of regret and sorrow, you wish it had gone better, then you felt like giving up on everything around you.
Well thats just one of the scenario that i could think of, i dont know whether its similiar to what you are facing but the main case it the Giving Up we face after facing too much stress,sorrow or even beating from others that we just drop dead and give up hope, whats worse people tend to just neglect those who have fallen and nobody cares at time.
That moment onwards, it feels like life is just a bitter story to live by everyday, in life we are like an athlete running a marathon, he runs and runs and runs, along the way he might have been feeling the muscles burning and the ache is setting in, he might even get tired until he get a cram, he doesn't stop but he is slowing down bit by bit, when he see's people overtaking him and no one is there to push him on, he cannot take the pain anymore and the race just seems difficult to finish, he just stops and drop, he Gives Up.
But we must never Give Up, well the saying goes "Easier said than done" very true but how long can you remain sitting there dead, at one point you gonna have to get back on your feet and finish the race, either yourself, with God or with friends that pick you up and spure you on. It is not a shame to Give Up in life time and time again, its alright, nobody is perfect and nobody is immune to the Giving Up syndrome, its just a breather we need to take at time, just a breather not a break.
But when you take the iniative to get back up again, you will stand up on your feet, continue the race and finish with tears of relief and joy. When you look back, you see that all the pain was worth it, to bring you to where you are today.
Are you facing a mountain in life now that seems to difficult to overcome?
Do you feel like giving up and losing it out?
Do you feel like its not worth doing what your doing anymore and its better to just Give up and drop everything?
My only encouragement for you is Don't stop there, take a breather and Go On, its worth the trouble.

Hi yes it is me again,sorry i haven been blogging in like ages.
Ok today my blog is based on a message i got last year during my spm month i think if i am correct. The sms goes like this:
In life,people you meet have a purpose.
Some were there to test you,
Some to use you,
Some to teach you,
and Some to bring the better if not the best in you.
Some may even cause you pain and heartache but one must learn to move on.
So pray for the people who can't treat you right, and thank God for those who love you back and see your worth.
The sms to me was at first oh ok another cool sms but thank God i was smart enough to save the message and after some time,today i look back at it and i think back of my past expriences and yes the sms really make sense especially last year with spm,losing weight,trying to get fit,trying to get a relationship and it all really fit in with the sms.
The people i meet or the girl i meet help me lose weight and get fit, she did cause me heartache and pain but i learn to move on in not having a relationship (Yes i did not even officially had a relationship with the girl,sad right but i have to move on). Sitting for spm taught me hard work,discipline and faith, it cause me alot of headache,stress and nearly drove me crazy but looking now i thank God i am a better man.
So remember everyday of our lifes, we see a lot people,i mean like everywhere, but its the people we meet that makes the difference between a friend and stranger, and its the people who makes a difference in our lifes changes our way of life. We should take time to look at this sms and look back the times we had, i recommend if your a christian to pray like what the sms ask you to do and if your not yet a christian then we should take time to thank these people.
A big thank you to Unc Andy for the message and today is someones birthday,sorry i cant do anything special for you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY LEE YEW LEUNG! =)
Today i was channel surfing when i came across his movie title Perfume:The story of a murderer, i always wanted to watch it cause my friends and teacher made many good comments about it, so i though hey how good can this movie be and after seeing it, well the beginning was kinda slow and meaningless but towards the plot and finale, it was meaningful and full of food for thoughs.One part of the movie which i found most meaningful is the part where he was all ready to be sentence to his punishment when he takes out his perfume, this perfume was like THE ONE perfume to dominate other smells to the point of seducing people into believing you were the most beautiful creation alive, to the point of making the people in the movie stumble in awe of the smell. But then the main character of the movie the murderer jean-baptiste guarnille was in deep though, after finally murdering 13 girls achieving his life long dream of a perfume with beauty stored in it, he could achieve love from everybody but then he thought back to his first murder, the girl was beautiful, he wanted to love her but instead he killed her for her smell, the one thing he though made him somebody posessing a perfume with the smell to make people fall in love with him, tears rolled down as he realized that it was the perfume that made people want to love him not jean-baptise guarnille.It struck right there and then that the author did a good job at applying the similiar pattern of the modern world these day into the story, the perfume can symbolize anything physical to attract love like your figure, looks, charms but if the person only love you for your looks and beauty can wear off, he will not love you after you are old and not beautiful instead if a person loves you for who you are, love will never die off between the two of you.Yes the physical part does play an inportant roles as well but what makes love so beautiful as it is, is that love requires the best of both worlds, you got to look the outside and inside but most importantly the heart, always look at the heart. Attractiveness requires some credit as well but like they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it comes down to us to see our level of beauty to others but please be humble when you judge peoples beauty. Dont compare girls to mariah carey or kate moss, please lower your level to a down to earth level if not you will neve find REAL TRUE love.Also another thing is that from my point of view the only chance for us guys to prove our worth to you ladies out there is if yo give us a chance, be open to us and let us show our worth, if your all closed up to us then there is no hope of us getting to you whereelse if you give us a chance we will do our best to prove our worth to love you, please give us not so handsome guys a chance and its the same for you guys out there as well dont only concentrate on the beauty of the girl, look inside well, remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder and beauty dies off whereelse the heart lives on.Thats all i got for now, if you have any comments please fell free to drop it in. I would be more than happy to accept critisim may it be positive or negative, i don't mind. God bless.
Today i was watching in youtube and i stumbled upon this video titled "How to say I love you."
Its a short film but it has a meaning to it, it starts off with a lonely girl sitting in a bench in the prk, reading a book, in tears getting engrossed in the book then a young chap with a camera turns up ans takes a picture of her and then there were alot of talking, cant tell you everything, go see it for yourselfs, here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-84anmYGv4
What really made me feel so amuse by this video is how the young chap over and over again tries to send a clear message to the girl that i like you and I love you but he does not do it directly in speech, he takes it one at a timeuntil the girl realizes that hey this dude cares and likes me. Ain't we all doing the same thing in todays world, one way or another we are telling people subliminal message "I LOVE YOU" but it all amends to the other sex and their willingness to be open but the young chap was very frank and truthful to her, he as open as well but i guess the main reason i found this video interesting is how the two manage to get together just by being themselves and never giving up (the guy was more of this attribute as the girl keeps asking him to go away in a nice way)
I guess its clear in today's world that everyone and anyone would want to be in love with the other gender, I would. There lies in the problem of how hard it is in today society where everything is commercialize and everything must be perfect.
How to say I LOVE YOU, its up to you and how you are going to get the other persons attention but nothing ever goes our way but we got to give a try.
Another thing true about this video is that love changes everything, The girl said you literally know nothing of me, he said one thing that was truthful and real, i know you could change my life.
HELLO People sorrry i haven been blogging for a long long long long.....time.
Been very busy with work (yeah right!) i've been so busy with GOD! going camps meeting new friends and just having fun and finding peace in GOD.
One camp really was awesome, the best camp in my whole life is PPBC YOUTH CAMP!
The camp place we were in was very relaxing except the hill climbing stairs to the guys dorm. The camp site was so peaceful, it really felt like God was there to bring peace to my mind,heart and soul. I was so caught with the world recently, yeah after losing so much weight and looking more handsome(ahem sorry i know its very perasaan but its the truth, hehe), I was so so caught up with what the world wants from me, 6packs, tight aps, skinner waist, nicer hair, i was once again caught in the dilemma of my love life, i've rememebed back all my past failures, how i never seem to be able to get a girlfriend ( man girls are reallytough to impress!) If it was not for the camp,i would not have found inner peace from all the burdens i carry all this while. My heart and mind felt so peaceful and in rest, my life seem more peaceful and calm, ahhh.
Other than that, i have been at home, just resting and relaxing, spending time with friends but its the month of january and many of my friends have went to college or NS, man makes me really wish i was in ns but oh well God plans are better than mine.
Learning to drive was FUN. i never though i would see the day i bring the car out on the road, yeah yesterday was my first time driving on the road. My instuctor was a handful, nags alot but it was good critisism,really learn alot from him. We did simple u-turns, how to handle gear control and especially on traffic, see driving in traffic you know, of course i am very kind, let people cut me and one thing my instructor does not like being cut but he nag again and told me one important fact, if you hesitate thats when you lose control. Just drive and control, dont stop and hesistate, people will give way, dont worry.Overall he is a very good instructor, tomorow got another lesson with him and hopefully i will do better than yesterday, got naged alot and really stressed him out, no wonder why his hair is turning white already.
Well thats all i've got so far but one thing great about the holidays is the time i have with God, so much better daily quiet time with him , last time its always rush rush rush, now its take your time and make sure you find God and be complety awe in his presence.
Ok that's all i have to write, i am doing very good now although some days are like augh boring but i will always seem to find something to occupy myself. If your wondering what i've been doing all this time after Spm, well i've been going to 1U alot, i mean like super duper alot in the month of december.I know the road to 1U so well now. Alrity ciaos!
S.P.M is just a breeze, S.P.M aiyah nothing wan lah, S.P.M is not that hard one, chill. S.p.m what is that? and etc. This is what i hear every time i question my seniors of their past SPM experience, somehow they always say it easy but now as my heart beats at a faster rate, as my breath gets heavier, as the sweat rolls down my face, as i begin to be big eyed the fact that ITS coming and it is my turn now to sit for SPM in just three weeks from now.
Spm is always easier said than done, and i can see why my seniors always make it seem easier because they have passed it and they are being kind not to scare us by saying wah Spm so hard man, you going to die from sleepless nights, frustrations, regrets and failures, you got to sacrifice so much just to pass this one government exam. I guess if someone said that to me, i will straight away panic. Yes Spm is a government exam and most people will be worried or stress because we have so much topics, lessons, subjects, exercise to cover and worse of all is that we don't know what to expect to be coming out for the Spm test especially history exam, where most people dread over 20 chapters of facts that can come out as a question from anywhere.
I myself personally have been studying hard to make sure i meet the grades especially God's grades. There are times where i feel that my faith is being tested as to how well i trust my Big Daddy up there to guide me through this examination. Honestly saying, i have times where i am so worried and stress out that i feel like giving up, there are times where i see myself answering a blank paper especially history essay but again God intercedes and say "O you of little faith" and this hits me on my head as i have not been depending on God to guide me through this Spm examination.
"O you of little FAITH!!" and its quite true that when circumstances seems against us or they is a hard and challenging road in front of us, we tend to panic and forget about our ultimate solution, GOD! I am not saying that we are condemned for not having trust God but God is in a way trying to reestablish that Faith towards him cause we sometimes tend to stray from God and forget about him, so he needs to put in a dire situation where we try everything to solve our problems until we run out of solution and realize we forgot all about God, our Father in heaven who can solve all things Big and Small.
One thing God also reminded me about in this period of time is that HE is the alpha and omega, THIS IS MY FATHERS WORLD! One night i was so worried until i lost sense of myself. So being a restored man of God, yes i have fallen but through God's grace i was and am restored, "the prodigal son". So i prayed to God,while just worshiping and praising him, the song "this is my fathers world" started to play in my head and my Mp3, coincidence, i don't think so, the song reminded me that our Father in heaven create the earth and us, so He is like the ultimate secret to success in exams and life, why should i worry? When I have God the creator, alpha and omega, the first and the last to see me through Spm with me in his Loving arms, to make sure that he plans out a way that we will go through it triumphantly and with success.
Another thing God showed me was that i am not the only one who is going to sit for Spm. Many, billions, trillions have sat it before me and it is not a CRIME, IT IS NOT EMBARRASSING to seek my seniors and mentors for guidance on how they face Spm? IN this time, What did they do to have that reassurance and confidence to pass with flying colors. I have to thank all those who have shown me support and given me some very good tips, but the best of all is one sms that i got from my senior that just sat for Spm last year. She reminded me that she went through it, her brothers went through it and they all did well with God guiding them and bringing them through it, so God will never abandon you or forsake you, if he can help the people before me through Spm, why cant he now? At this moment i broke down to know that my faith was so diminished that again i forgot that God is our creator, our all seeing Father, he will NEVER EVER leave you out in the dark, he will always be there to see you through it for good.
No a doubt that i am going to sit for Spm soon, time to buck up and work hard but also pray and seek God even much harder than ever before. There will be many things that i have to sacrifice in order to do well for Spm but it will be worth at the end of the road, the nights staying up to study, cutting down on basketball and leisure time, but it will all be worth it at the end because i have God to look onto for help, guidance and support.
One common question that i hear from the streets these days is "Aiyooh i am darn scared that i wont do well, i am scared i will fail lah dude." Yeah sometimes i also feel like in that situation but with God by my side, i will not FAIL, i SPEAK AGAINST THAT SAYING OF FAILURE because God loves his child too much to see him fail. And A's is not everything, its only something, we got to remember that no matter what results that i and others will be getting is God's plan from the start and he will make a way when there seems to be no way, all you have to do is to TRUST AND OBEY.
Well thats all i have for now. Please pray for me as i will sitting for Spm, pray for my brethen and sisters also cause it is not only me who will be going through mountains of challenges but also many others. Your prayers will much be appreciated, and of course lets also not forget those sitting for STPM as well.
Well today i was using the computer and i stumbled upon the music video of Shakira whenever wherever, then my mind started to drift into my own world where i wish that i would met a girl that was as pretty and beautiful as shakira and of course as fun as her, seeing that girl dancing to the song and seducing me, but POOF! all that was just a fantasy and that got me thinking how really amazing we humans are.
Looking up the dictionary, reality means "the state of things as they actually exist". Reality is fact, it is a reality that the world is a beautiful place, it is a reality that you have a loving family, it is a reality that you have a relationship, it is a reality that you are working now, it is a reality that we are living in Malaysia, it is a reality that we all have hard times, it is a reality that we all strive to be better in life. Reality is a very scary stage to be in if you ask me personally but we have to be in it, bottom line we have no choice but to face reality because everyday and everything is a reality, ( I hope you know what i mean, if you don't, please give me a call and i will explain it to you. 017-3612220) Let me give you a scenario, one day you are working and earning a living but you wish you can not work but still earn money, but reality steps in and tells us that with earning comes working. For the benefit of those studying, everyday you study and next thing you know its SPM or PMR or major exams, and we wish that we could NOT study but still get good results but the reality is that we have to study to excel, see what i mean. REALITY is everyday everything in everyway of our life's.
Fantasy on the other hands means a situation imagined by an individual or group, which does not correspond with reality but expresses certain desires or aims of its creator. For short fantasy is a place of our day dreams. Fantasy will always be with us, Why do we fantasize? Well that easy, we fantasize because we have a desire for that something or someone but we know it cant never happen or be obtain, therefore we fantasize to satisfy our inner desires.
Fantasy is an addiction to all of us because we cannot deny we have never day dream or go into thoughts. Fantasy is a very nice and happy place, it is a place of satisfaction, it is a place of your souls desire answered, it is a place of our wildest dreams but fantasy can be a place of triggering self pity, depression, lustful desires and etc, rarely it can trigger excellence. Let me give you an example, a teenage boy sees this pretty and beautiful girl, not a doubt his fantasy would be to have a relationship with her but sometimes our 'Man Brain' goes out of control and lustful thoughts starts to fly in.
Reality, a painful truth in life. Fantasy, a place of inner desires satisfied. Reality....Fantasy..... We live in both of them and they both can be a dangerous state to be in, facing reality is harsh and often it kills us. Fantasy is a place of our desires we enjoy being in, but the truth hurts in the end to know its all a lie.
Somehow i find reality to be helpful at times to wake us up but i also find fantasies to be enjoyable at times but there must be limits ( Guys you know what i mean). We all wish that our fantasy can come true and i am here to say IT CAN but of course it must be something logic like getting a good living or having a relationship, these can be accomplish by working hard because reality says with earning comes working but fantasies like flying and being like a superhero, let it just be a fantasy as it is.
Reality and fantasy, these two did not came to be by accident but God the almighty created them. Fantasy is to satisfy our desires once in a while or in simple terms can be a kick start for us, like a goal in life. Reality is there to stop us times of thinking unreasonable, reality is there to wake us up of our fantasy at times. See how amazing God put these tow together, Fantasy to bring about dreams, Reality to keep it in check.
Well i have one advice for all of us, DO NOT LET fantasies bring you down, let it be a challenge to you, let it be a challenge to accomplish that REASONABLE AND SENSIBLE desire you want. Don't give up so fast, you want to have that girl, start working hard, do your homework, go workout get fit, look good and you know the rest Guys, you want that car, study hard get a good job, work hard earn enough and buy that car. NEVER SAY I GIVE UP, always say I WILL GET (insert desires like that car that girl and etc), fantasy is there to be a jump start, make full use of it. remember reality is there to keep your fantasies in check not to bear you down.
Well thats all i have for now, till my nest interesting thing come about. Take care and God bless.
