OCF News



Love da video :) One used for today's OCF (Overseas Christian Fellowship) meeting!! Loved Mr Ow's acting! Haha, we basically laughed through his announcement hiaks..Happee watching!!! :P

I should really tell ya more on Missions Day where we go out and help families or individuals in crisis in need. It was such an amazing experience lo. You know how when we as christians think of missions, we'll most probably think of places that are a few thousand kilometers all the way in Thailand or some other country. It really stuck me that missions could be right next door.

We went as a team under YWAM (Youth With a Mission). After splitting into smaller groups,each group were assigned a house to help at. We went to this single mother's house where she fractured her ankle and she has 5 kids ranging from 1 years old to 18 years old.

It was really a tough time for her as she couldn't really do much chores in the house as she wasn't able to move about properly. All we did was come in with some tools, help clean what we can and fix up a bit of her garden. I think what made the trip significant was the prayers we had for her on our way there in our cars. Cleaning had never been so fun before!! Like what Cheryl mentioned, its like whatever's thrown at you or however dirty it can be, we weren't worried bout it and in turn go OK, lets get this cleaned!! :)

The lady's kids lovely and doing things around the house that I never did at that age. One of the girls who are probably around 9 or 10 was carrying her 1 year old sister and making sure she didn't cry whereas when the mother said she wanted coffee, 1/2 sugar and... the 12-year old boy just left what he was doing and went and boiled water and made the perfect coffee for his mum. He was helping me clean his brother's room by the way. He has really big eyes which he said won him a few awards for having the biggest eyes for an Aussie. :P

The family was just such a happee family to work with and you can see how thankful they were for us to come by. We did not manage to make everything sparkling clean but results from helping out for that few hours were instant as rooms and the kitchen are cleaner, gardens have less weeds and so forth. I believe it was an eye opening yet rewarding experience that if you put anyone in our shoes to be able to help out these people and see results happen in front of your eyes would feel the same way as well.

Okies, this is all from me this time :) Back to studies....and dim sum later with WC com :P Heheee

I'm lovin it! Yeah~

Today's been great! Loved it!!! Wait..wat's even shocking is that I'm actually blgging after all these while!! Haaha :) Sowee readers! Dun expect much from this log for the next couple of months. The reason's simple: I need to figure out my future and I need good enough grades to do so. Gonna be counting upon God here! :)

Anyways, lets go back to today. Was able to meet Li and Lemon today after a whole month of not seeing them. Wanna guess where we went for lunch?????

IKEA

Yes, we actually went all the wy to Ikea to have lunch and believe it or not it was the first time in my life that I've actualy stepped foot into an Ikea. Being from a small "kampung", it was no wonder that I acted like a sakai. I was literally like a child who was going to the Toy store - all happee and all :) Heheeee Maybe that's why I'm looking into studying a course in Uni related to kids, ya think? :P Hiaks

All these while, Ive always seen like catalogues on Ikea and loved da stuff but never had a chance to go to one. Well, now that I do, totally loved da place man! Haha I must sound like a maniac now. :) Food there was lovely and fresh, din have my camera with me so too bad .. Can't show da food off. Summore coffee was $1.95 and free flow! Wher can ya get that here in the expensive land of Perth! Muahaaha

I bought like finger puppets cos I thought they will be great props for teaching Sunday school. Was playing with them at the train station :) Agree that Im childish yet? Lols

Anyways, these few days made me realize how small Perth actually is. Practically knew like half the people in bus when heading home just now, summore mostly they're ppl I know from Miri. It's amazing!! It made me miss home quite a bit.

Yesterday made me miss home even more! We had OCF Freshies Welcome and the place was packed with students!! It was a pot bless and everyone brought a dish along and guess what? The dishes were so Malaysian/Singaporean style that it really felt like I was back home. It felt like one of the freshies welcome that Uncle David organizes for Curtin Miri.

Well, I enjoyed myself heaps and when I went along with papa Ben to drive Wen Hui home(quite a long ride which was just what I felt like), it made me miss my family when we drive aroud in the rain lo. You see, its very rare to see super heavy rain, or maybe storm as u will call it, like that of the ones you see in Malaysia, here in Perth and yesterday night was one of the rare nights. It poured down like cats and dogs and we were warmly sitting in the car, chatting all the way. Man, I miss home!!

Ok ok, I'd better stop writin before ur sick of my mssing home stories!! Heheee heading of to Mummy Ho's place tonight to sleep over. More fun ahead!! Wohooo~ Love it

Dundeedumm dumm

Popped by at the State library to study with Li today. I reached there first and purposely chose the floor that was labelled "science and MUSIC" This was my first time going into the library library itself. The last time we went there was to borrow the toilet :)

The atmosphere there's pretty nice. Anyways, man was i blown away by the books they had for music. Lots of scores and choral music and so on. *drools* Orchestra scores.. choir scores!! I think it would be heaven for Marcus, considering how hard he goes around just looking and trying to buy them for St. Co's band in Miri. Lols I'm definitely popping back ther and have a nice super close look at them after exam. Maybe check out some other hobby books as well :)

Studying today was satisfying as during intervals I had buble-o-tea and a drum magazine in my hands to run through!!

I miss this baby of mine!
