Last entry for Blurty... [06 Jan 2005|02:44am] Hey people! Those who have been following this blog faithfully, under Blurty.com... thank you. I've ported over to using WordPress. Visit my site at ... http://david.ambitiouslemon.com David[woohoo!]

Pictorial.. [04 Jan 2005|01:12am] [ mood | tired ] [ music | You in Me - Juwita Suwito ] Remembering parents ::Framed a picture of my parents:: New sheets, new year ::Jess' Christmas gift for me. Love it, Jess. Thank you!:: Fried bananas ::Pisang goreng. Best I've ever had:: Hot dogs ::Best I've ever had:: David[woohoo!]

New year's here. [01 Jan 2005|01:30am] [ mood | melancholy ] I was just closing my year with some time alone with God and I could only find tears in my eyes. Never was there once when I felt that God was away from me. He has always stuck close to me, even though I strayed away. He was always there when I needed Him. All I can remember are His fingerprints all over my life in the past one year. The size of the problems I faced didn't matter. The end product always reflected God, and His works were evidently all over the situation. There's no way, that I could have gone through my whole year without God. I cannot imagine. All I have to offer are only tears of joy, whispers of gratitude, breaths of praise. To God be the glory. Amen. Blessed New Year, everyone!

I was dead wrong. But then... [31 Dec 2004|01:57am] [ mood | happy ] [ music | Smoothjazz.Com - Live From Monterey Bay ] You know how sometimes, your head build up this mental image/idea that blows out of proportion even the simplest things? Well, yours truly just had the craziest stupidest ideas. As per topic, I was dead wrong. But anyhow, I think as humans, we are ... allowed to do that once in awhile, right? Just as long as we don't blow up or make a big fuss out of it. *hiacks Anyhow, I feel like I'm in the threshold of a particular phase of my life, and somehow, I don't think I am going to pass that threshold unless ... there's a place to go, above the threshold. I'm glad that they are decisions that I don't make on my own, as if it was, I would have screwed up, anyhow you wanna see it. Spoke to Joey yesterday. Many of you don't know her. She is my ex-girlfriend. Ahahaha. Anyhow, something that I felt should be done between us after we broke up.. actually surfaced while I was on the internet with her. I actually asked for her forgiveness, for how I was to her, and all lah. So.. yeah... She thought that I thought that she was still angry with me... but I wasn't. I just wanted to ask for her forgiveness... and thank goodness that she has. I'm glad. David[woohoo!]

Adulthood. [28 Dec 2004|08:58pm] [ mood | melancholy ] Did more thinking today. This time, it's about a particular issue that has never crossed my mind, but I find myself in it inevitably. It's about adulthood. I've been thinking a bit on it, but somehow, it's just questions after questions that keep popping up. 1. What is adulthood? Is it a definition that is related to age? Or is it based on something subjective, like maturity or abilities of a particular person? 2. How should an adult be like? How should an adult behave? What goes through the mind of an adult? Are there certain rules or guide on the way an adult should think? What makes an adult different compared to a matured young man in train of thought, concerns, and feelings? How do I be an adult? 3. How would being an adult change the way things are around me? How would it affect my ministry now? Would being an adult in my situation help? David[hmmm] PS: I hope all the adults [ hmm, or those who claim/refer to themselves as an adult ] will leave a comment. It would be deeply appreciated. Remember to leave your name too.

Night of moons... [28 Dec 2004|02:13am] [ mood | accomplished ] Took some shots of the moon. Leave a comment, if you like them! 24th December, 2004 The night was young, when the moon was almost in it's full glory... 25th December, 2004 Was at Moonlight Bay, a place my aunty ownes beside the beach. Lovely. Later that night, the clouds set in... 26th December, 2004 Full moon night... Just some other night shots from my place... David[woohoo!]

Blessed! [27 Dec 2004|03:47pm] [ mood | grateful ] [ music | Not By Power - All Together Separate ] Someone blessed me with RM30 worth of credit just a few minutes ago. Now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Would like to know who did it for me. Or... hmm... was it a mistake? Anyhow, it doesn't matter. God is good. So is the person who loaded RM30 for me. David[woohoo!]

Mini-earthquake in Penang. [27 Dec 2004|11:40am] It was all over the news yesterday evening till today. An earthquake originated just west of Sumatra sparked off tsunami waves, rocked nations and caused deaths all over South East Asia. It's been awhile since the last natural disaster of this magnitude struck. By Malaysian terms, it was pretty bad, but nothing compared to what Thailand, Sri Lanka and India's suffering right now. Here in Penang, there were mini-earthquakes that shook parts of the island. My apartment rocked early in the morning at about 9. I was already up, surfing on the net when things at home started shaking. The building swayed and shook prolly an inch! It was a scary experience. I went down through the stairs and waited for things to stabilize [ literally ]. Later in the day, I actually thought about going to the beach just to relax and unwind, take some pictures and all. Invited a friend, but she wasn't free, so I decided to stay home. Thank God that I didn't go too! If not, I might have been one of the victims of the tidal waves that hit Batu Feringghi. God protects His children, amen? Same thing with JasonChen too. He was lepaking at Gurney Plaza when the tidal waves hit. Today is the... 27th of December 2004. About 4 more days to 2005. I can't wait for the year to end. I remember saying that a few times earlier in the month. Well, I guess time's like that. When it comes, it comes. Will prolly have one day where I'll be reflecting upon everything that's happened in this year. Lots to reflect upon. Wish that Penang have more hills that are secluded. Now that the beach is off limits, I ain't got places to go.. d:/ David[hmm]

Nasi Kandar. Nothing else matches.. [24 Dec 2004|01:30pm] [ mood | Satisfied ] [ music | We are the reason - Avalon ] Okay, time to step on some tails! Who dares claim there's better nasi kandar anywhere else other than Penang? I just had it from a stall that was beside the road. Man, was it good, or was it GOOD! I think the reason why I lost my appetite was due to the lack of enticing, and scrumptous food around in KL/Cheras. When it came to Seremban siew pau I had with me while I was travelling back to Penang, koay teow th'ng, and homecooked rice... I ate! And felt satisfied after that. Not queasy or anything like that. Oh, it's Christmas eve! Blessed Christmas, everyone. David[woohoo!] PS: I miss Seremban.

Everything's beautiful. [23 Dec 2004|06:59pm] Time : 1738 hours Day : Wednesday, 23rd December 2004 It's been awhile, since I've blogged, aye? All those reading, nod your heads! Hmm.. Interactive blogging. Interesting. I could say the same for the things that's been happening in my life. Somehow, my life just has never been the same with Christ, in me. Giving my life to God hasn't been short of exciting events, experiences that only doing so could ever be that real. Knowing God has indeed brought so many beautiful things to my life.I was just overwhelmed by the truth in that line. As I look back into my life, there is so much evidence of God's goodness, so many traces of His grace, so many times that His love shone through, so many blessings that I never counted, and just so much of Him that I never really noticed. Was in Seremban on Monday. Went down to see HueiWeun. First time seeing her after 10 months. She still looks the same. Said that she gained weight, but I don't think so. Ehehe. Drove back up shortly after resting awhile. Her grandmother and mother had a thing to say to me though. Ehehehe. Cinderella time imposed. Strictly! *aiyak Left for KL, which was another... 45 minutes drive [ Didn't keep track of time, as... there wasn't a need to. d:) ]. Traffic was alright. Weather was beautiful too. Showed her around Cheras, and brought her back to my place. Rested there again, and collected some stuff that I needed to bring to the dinner that Jess had planned. Drove down to Subang after that, to pick up Jess from her place. No one coming to the dinner knew that I was bringing HueiWeun along. I thought it'd be a good surprise for them, haha. Jess mistook her for Shireen, when we were outside her house. First time she's meeting HueiWeun. Finally, huh? Met the rest of the gang, WeiMei, Bernard, Kirk, Raymond [ who's also back for internship ], Timothy and Daniel at SS15. They too, didn't expect her to come. But yeah.. they were nice. Went over to MaMa Chops, PaPa Grills at Terminal 3, Subang Airport to have dinner. It was alright there. Except that I still didn't have any appetite for food. Didn't order, but ate half of HueiWeun's black pepper lamb chop. Then we adjourned to Jess' house, to have dessert. She made a yummilicious cheese cake for us, with a side splash of La Cremeria Pecan and Almond ice-cream. That was nice. Talked a bit.. and we all went off quite early. Everyone else was working, and Jess had to go for a surprise birthday party. HueiWuen and I had to leave back for Seremban. If not, I might never be able to take her out ever again! The horror! *covers face! Grabbed a few pictures, and have uploaded them here! Here's a picture of us! ChinTeck took the picture! We spoke quite a bit in the car, on the way back. Arrived back at 12, on the dot. Was glad that I brought her back home on time. If not, I wouldn't know how to face her grandmother and mother if they found out that we came home late. *phew Spent Tuesday together, bought some stuff, caught a movie and talked. During the movie, I realized something IN my heart. It was a truth that I will hold fast to, next to all of God's promises. That night was a difficult time for her. Something bad happened, and she was quite shaken up. I was just being there for her, and the night ended pretty late. Left the next day with a heavy heart. Went down to Klang immediately, took lunch with Janet, and after a short while... drove to KL to pick Victor up. He was to drop me at Puduraya so that I could get a bus up to Penang. I did, as soon as I arrived. Bus left at 1500, and I arrived in Penang shortly after 7. It was a pleasant trip, as the sun wasn't scorching anyone, and the scenery was nice. Knocked off the first half of the trip and spent the next half admiring God's beauty, revealed by the land and it's greenery. It feels good to be back in Penang, but I do miss being in Seremban. It was very nice to be among her family members, and more so, with her. Now that I have nothing specific to do, I feel her absence once again. Felt the separation once again, while I was on the bus. I can't wait till the next time I see her. David[woohoo!]

Lost my appetite. [18 Dec 2004|09:48am] Don't know why, but since my last days of exams, I've lost my appetite. Even this morning, I don't feel like eating anything. Usually, in the morning, I'll be hungry. Yesterday, I ate prolly about 50% of my normal portion and I've already felt like I had a feast. I sure hope this doesn't get worse. David[hmmm] PS: For those who visit my site, it's down. Sorry.

[16 Dec 2004|11:39pm] Time: 0934 hours Day: Thursday, 16th December 2004 The last day of the CF committee planning retreat. What's left is the planning of the weekly events, and closing. The theme that they have somewhat chosen is GEAR, which is an acronym for Getting Equipped And Reaching out. There's another part to it, which is Getting Everyone Activated in Relationship. This whole planning retreat hasn't been very far from what I expected or know it to be. Was just telling Jess that I feel so nostalgic being here. Flashbacks of my memories, both bitter and sweet came back to me. But I wasn't dwelling on it for too long though. Doesn't help. Offered to take up the Praise & Worship Coordinator, but after much deliberation, felt that there was a calling for me to take up the Prayer Coordinator. Heard from God, and.. well, maybe it's time to build up that spirit of intercession within me, since there is always a call for it. I don't think it's gonna be easy for me personally, as it takes a person to really practise it to be able to encourage everyone else to do it. That's the really hard part. HueiWeun's been back for a couple of days now. Whenever I don't have any thoughts in my mind, she'll come into the picture, and I'll begin to wonder about the many many things that I wonder. *laughs Plan to go see her soon. Can't wait any longer. Maybe this weekend. Hopefully, she wouldn't be too busy to accommodate me. Hmm... Jess arranged the get-together to be on the Monday night, 20th of December. If I were to go, I'll be delaying my trip back to Penang for the holidays. Truth is, I can't wait to be back in Penang, but I haven't seen this bunch for a long time. They're the ones that have really seen me through the years, the naughty things and all. Hehe. *exhales David[woohoo!]

[16 Dec 2004|11:35pm] Time : 2130 hours Day : Sunday, 12th December 2004. Exams are all over my mind now. The only thing that's on my mind now is... studying and passing my last 2 papers for this semester. I don't have much faith, but I can only surrender everything to God now. Fears of failing my exam comes into my mind, and haunts me. *sigh *took a break and watched TV for about 30 minutes Ahh. Feels better now. Hmm.. come to think of it, exams aren't the only thing on my mind now. I can't believe hw is gonna be back tomorrow! It was just as though she left just yesterday. Gosh, has it been 10 month since she left? My my. Time does fly. Things haven't been smooth sailing, but my faith is in God. Faith, when put in God's hands... will never return void. Lord, I claim that in Jesus' name, amen. Gonna try and get Juwita Suwito's album for her, as a Christmas gift. Gonna try and get it signed too! I think she'll love it. The thing is.. how to get hold of Juwita? I know she's been coming to church for practices, but when? Gosh. I need to find out. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm! And how to pass it to her? Hmmmmm.... More questions. Will think of it after my exams. David[*boohoo] PS: I'm going to sleep now. I've been up the whole day. Need to sleep early, and wake up early to finalize everything that's in my brains. Good night, world!

Emmanuel - God is with us [09 Dec 2004|11:53am] Emmanuel - God is with us At times when I am all alone When I seem to have lost my control When there's no way to get out of the day I can always look to You And I'll find that You'll be there Waiting.. God, You're with me Always watching Never taking Your sight away from my life You'll never leave me Nor forsake me I am Yours And forever will be With You David[woohoo!]

My cooking is getting better! [08 Dec 2004|03:34pm] [ mood | amused ] [ music | Dave Koz - Let it Free (Smoothjazz.Com) ] They believe so too! My housemates, Aletheia and Eunice. Cooked spaghetti for lunch yesterday. Yummy! A lot better than v1.0 the other day. David[woohoo!] PS: Oh... 2 papers are over. Now, for the next tough TWO!

Ahhh... [07 Dec 2004|02:08pm] [ music | Joy and the Boy - Let's Get It On (Smoothjazz.Com - The worlds best Smooth Jazz - Live From Monterey Bay) ] Here I am, sitting in my cosy little room. The weather's just peachy. It's not too sunny, but it's not too gloomy either. With WinAMP streaming jazz music straight on my computer, and having another little chapter to finish up for my paper tomorrow... things really feels great now. With a wireless connection, and broadband.. the internet is so accesible now. My mom called this morning, from KLIA. She was waiting to fly off to China again, after coming back for 2 weeks. Gosh, I didn't even get to see her while she was back. Sigh. I'm really wondering what's happening to my family. Anyhow, HueiWeun's coming back on Monday! Yahooo. I can't wait. Look forward to seeing her again. What a beautiful day. d:) David[woohoo!]

Someone crashed an EVO! [02 Dec 2004|09:41pm] Sigh. EVOs were never meant to be driven by the other gender. Read about it. - quoted from pgsingerboy. David[woohoo!]

Finally, exams are before me. [02 Dec 2004|07:43pm] Time : 1731 hours Day : Thursday, 2nd December 2004 It's the final day of classes for me. Everything has been handed up and submitted. My final exams are before me now. Somehow, it hasn't been a good semester for me. Things didn't go well, throughout the semester. My internal marks are pulling down my grades. I'm aiming only for passes this semester. Oh Lord. David[hmm]
