How's It Gonna Be?

So here I am in the US, totally ignorant about things that have happened in Malaysia over the course of the several months I've been here. Then, my friend from NYC flew down and came to vist, he showed me this video. To be honest, there are some truths embedded in it but then again, is it really the right way to deal with mistakes the government has made over the years or the racism (that has been swept under the carpet) this way? I think not. I fear what might become of our country. I love Malaysia but then again, it scares me sometimes to see how much racial tension there is going on beneath the surface. How are we as the new generation going to help heal hurts between the people? How are things going to be in the future?

"Hantu" Blog

This is a follow up to CC's "Trolls" post and well, I guess its now my turn to have one haunting my blog. I have a "hantu" on my blog and I really dislike it when people post comments under anonymous. Maybe I should change my settings. This might turn out to be a rant but how does one get rid of the person without having any fantasies about hurting them physically? Ignoring them is just not my kind of thing. Help?

My Cousin

Hey everyone, despite the fact that I'm not physically in Malaysia, remember that you guys are close to my heart. Recently, a lot of "unfortunate" things has been happening to someone dear to me - my cousin. He has been through a lot for someone his age (he is my age) and even more so recently. He used to go to church and serve in ministries but has backslidden after leaving school due to a bad experience that he had in his church.

I believe that the things that have been happening to him are not of coincidence but I think that God is tugging on his heartstrings and reminding him that he cannot live his life without God's help. The situations that he has been in recently cannot be rectified without some supernatural help from God. So I'm guessing that he needs to acknowledge that he needs God back in his life.

A couple of days ago, I managed to chat with him online and he finally admitted to me that he thinks that God is only the one who is able to help him get through this stage in his life. That was a miracle in itself because for the past few months, I've been trying to tell him that but he had always brushed it aside. Also, I've been praying for him frequently this past few weeks and I believe that it's because of that that he finally decided to take that small step in faith.

I finally convinced him that he needed to start small by coming to CG(this CG!) and he was supposed to come on Wednesday but he couldn't make it because apparently, some people came looking for him (to cause trouble) and he had to leave his house for his grandma's place. That's how much trouble he is in. So, my request is that you all join me in committing to pray for him daily.

Please pray for his safety, that he and his loved ones will not come to any harm. Also, pray that God will continue to move him in his heart so that he will realize day by day that he needs no one else but God. And pray that he will take that step of faith and return to God; by attending CG regularly and eventually church. He is very dear to me and by joining me in praying for him, you are doing me a huge favor as well. Thanks so much guys. And if any of you have a word from God specifically for him or for me, feel free to e-mail me at amanda.lml@gmail.com

Trolls

What do you do when someone starts name-calling and throwing insults at you and your friends via comments or chat boxes? These folks have a name - TROLLS.

Good netiquette is to ignore them- even if they personally attack you.

That's the only way to bore them until they leave you. Doesn't matter if you are nice or nasty to them, they'll just bask in the attention.

This message was brought to you by a concerned Netizen from Klang.

Mr. Noah

Mr. Noah built an ark
The people thought it such a lark
Mr. Noah pleaded so
But into the ark they would not go

Chorus:
Down came the rain in
Torrents, torrents (3x)
And only 8 were saved!

The animals went in two by two
The giraffe and zebra and kangaroo
All were safely stowed away
Before that great and awful day

Happy Belated Burpday, Dianne (3 Jul)!

You are too far away to sabo' but we are patiently waiting till you come back for your 'pressie'.

Muahahahaha...

Chat Box

Alo, alo... Can someone help me install a chat box at the side of this blog?

You all agree that it'll be a great addition, right?

What happened when U had Roti Ayam

Last CG outing, I’m sure we had a blasting moment. For the very first time, none of us ordered Indooooo Meeeeee Doubleeeeee. I ordered Roti Ayam. The Roti Ayam looks plain when it arrived on my table. I was wondering, where’s my ketchup pattern on my Roti Ayam since Eugene one has patterns on it when he ordered. Nevertheless, I carried on eating with my Roti Ayam. It was irri-twistably good. Somehow, when I got back, I had a slight stomachache. I brush the feeling off since it wasn’t too bad. I dozed off thinking that everything should be alright but things seem to be a little bit different.

I woke up in the middle of the night with an extremely upset tummy. And it happened twice. Must be the Roti Ayam which caused it. I thought everything will be over.

Next morning, I visited the toilet one last time. Finally I’m all done for the day. No more tummyache. I will be thinking twice before ordering Roti Ayam from that mamak again.





Anyway, everything below this line has got nothing to do with the topic.

And also tomyamgirl = Casandra. =D

I'm still at college. In the lab. I can't bear to go back. There's absolutely nothing to do at home. Except study. :(

When did my life become so drab?

Oh yea. I remember when. When my internet went poof.

At least I still have the Sims 2 to play with! Hahas, I'm looking forward to this week's meet. I feel so bored without my internet world =(

It is now time to go on. Back to my drab room. With its drab atmostphere as my roommate has moved out (Not a bad prospect I'd say) I remembered wishing I was alone, then I wouldn't feel so irksome... BUT THAT WAS WHEN I HAD MY INTERNET.

But still. Privacy is as best as one can erm. Have.
