My very first bus trip in the land of Msia :)

Just thought I'd jot this down :) After getting a baby with four wheels in Perth, it has been a while since I hopped on to public transports and meet random people on the way. Kinda missed doing so.

Lols needed to go to 1 Utama yesterday and decided to be adventurous in taking the bus after the many hours of tryin to call a cab company. Waited at the KTM station near my place and there was this aunty waiting for a train as well. Being in quite a kampung area (as my KL fwens wud agree), there wasn't many people around waiting. Wanted to talk to the aunty but the Malaysian-ness in me was asking me why should I trust anyone out here in Malaysia? After there's so many cases of this and that. The other side of me told me why judge someone just cos I was in Malaysia and not in Aussie.

So, decided to ask the aunty whether this was the right side of the train station to wait since I wasn't so sure myself and guess what? We just continued talking and sharing stories for ages. :) She was such a sweet lady to talk to and she even told me the many different ways I could get to 1 Utama. :P

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone out there was as trustable? A world where we can just start chatting with strangers and be ok? In fact, she made my day and was glad I met her :P

Signin off: Better sleep soon before I wake up at 4pm again. Amu is comiiing tomolo !!!

Love

Funny how I keep bumping into this topic of L.O.V.E. How lovely~ :)

"Love is the most powerful feeling on earth."

"Relationships built on love will last whereas relationships built on desires will not."says NatGeo's Naked Science I watched this afternoon.

The two statements are somewat true. I believe love is something that we as humans can all relate to, whether its the love of a beautiful scenery or a love for a person. It is pretty powerful, or else phrases such as 'world makes the world go round' wont be around.

And with the relationship bit, NatGeo was trying to see whether human relationships as couples are meant to last and they concluded that yes it is made to last but only when it is built on love.

Love can be so wow yet at the same time such a complicated thing to fully grasp and understand.

I guess the question is this: Ever wondered where love comes from?

"God is love" 1John 4:16

Well if there really is a source of love, what shall our love for each other be like? Does it reflect the source of where love came from?

"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."

For me, my prayer is this:

For as long as I shall live

I will testify to love

I'll be a witness in the silences

Where words are not enough

And with every breath I take

I will give thanks to God above

For as long as I shall live

I will testify to love

Wohoo~

I think it has finally sunked in that I'm done with the the first year of Uni! Wheee~

Although it meant days of burning midnight oil, especially the day before assignment due dates and being a zombie the day after, and, despite the fact that I need to have some sorta time management plan, I kinda like it. :)

Three week block prac is the most tiring thing ever! Well, it did give me a taste of working life tho :P Waking up early, work work, reaching home cook and that's about all the brain cells and energy I have to spare for the day. Being there at 7:15am on a early shift sure doesnt sound too appealing does it but I guess the highlight of it is the experience that comes with it. Carers who cared not only for the kids but also took the effort out of their busy schedule to care for you. Loved them to bits.

Day after day, the children just melts ur heart. Here's just one of many instances within my three weeks. A lil one holds your hand and tugs you along in the backyard calling, "Come, Esther, come!"

"Where are we going?" I asked. "To your office!!!"

"Where is my office?"

"I don't know, we need to find it!"

He pulls me along and we walked around the outdoor play area looking for my office. Along the way, there layed a tiny dried up brown leaf among the lush green grass.

He pointed at the leaf and go, "Here it is! You sit here." "Stay here," he looked back making a stop signal with his hand, smiling as he ran off. "I'll come back and pick you up."

How cute can cute get?

Boo boo day

Been super accident prone today, dunno why. It all started at the photocopier in the library when I was trying to get some papers out of my file to copy. *Scrattch* When I tried pulling the ring open and i saw a big line on my thumb. Whatever, I thought, its just a tiny scratch. Only realize its seriousness when blood just kept dripping. Tissueless, I had to run to the loo to grab some and while doin so, had a few big drops on the cover of my teaching file. Time to do some beautifying by sticking stuff over it :P

Returned to the room I go to only to realize a child had tripped in the toilet and had a bad cut across her chin and mummy n daddy were on their way.

Cooked dinner, and keep touching the kettle accidentally and going ouchhh!

Baked banana cake, and guess wat? Came out black crusted but inside was still quite okie.

So, tell me, a boo boo day indeed? Or issit just today?

Signin off: *eyelids shuts*

Working life?

I'm on my 3 week block prac now and I feel like I'm working really. Wakie early, head to childcare, come home bout 6, cook, then that's about all the energy available for the day. Wats interesting is SWEET stuff seems to find its way to the top of the most appetizing chart and a few more pounds dim in significance :)

Lols, lots of cute stories to share and yet a learning process for me. What other course allows you to sit in the sandpit and play with the kids all afternoon :)

Signin off: Tired~
