Well, well, well....
Time has really flies..and it's getting close to chinese new year (CNY) soon. :)
As usual, every CNY give me a lot of anticipations, be it reunion with family members i.e. beloved papa and mama, fellow sisters and brother, my nieces and nephews, close and distant relatives or with my ex-classmates and churchmates.
CNY is a time to keep update with each other and at the same time is an ideal time to retighten those families, frens and mates strings and bonds before it go loose again after it. For me, CNY mean this kind of things and not forgetting too that it is also the time for indulgence....especially extremely good chinese cuisine and delicacies...and they are in abundance!!
Ok, ok...since CNY is 10 days away....let me tell the other things that had been happening to me lately.
#1: I'd started my volunteering work for ppl with prison, drugs and HIV background in january. Been in the half-way home (it is called half-way home because women that come from various background (prison or drugs) are kept in the home so that they can experience life with God, withdraw from their addiction and discipline their own life before they come out to face the cruel and dangerous society again.) for twice. Initially I was scared, as you see, i treat them as abnormal ppl and have the perception that they are sullen, deceitful people. As I was slowly integrated into their daily life and acquire some exposure from the staff there, I come to realized that they too, are ppl like ourselves...the difference is, they took the wrong path before they knew it. But knowing God means knowing that there is still hope and love around, it is never too late for them to maneuver to righteous path again.
Yeah, each one of them has their own story to tell, but the important things is that they see hope in front of them, the hope to be united again with their families, a hope in God, a hope in everything. Hopefully, by exposing myself to them, I too will slowly giving myself in to God and be at service to them, whenever they need it.
#2: Inaugural Floral Parade in PutraJaya for me
Yup, went to the parade with the total of 18 floats from different states in Malaysia and some brass bands from prominent schools. It was quite special for me since I've never been in this kind of celebration before. Dancers from Istana Budaya managed to give the parade spectacular show, with the dances and their flower props around. But really, the place was so crowded that day that we were not able to squeeze ourselves in the flower bazaar. But overall, it was really an unforgettable show.
#3: my loved one's birthday
It was his birthday at the end of January, and we did something peculiar again this year. Both of us had a romantic + quiet (except the noise from the crows up the tree) in The Ship near Sogo. We had our cod fish and rib eye steak, which turned out to be tasty and mouth watering!! Nice :)
I guess that's all my updates for now...there are more to come..just wait and see...
