Random Ways

I realized that God has put many people in my life very randomly, in unexpected ways, some of these people I've not even met yet. But these people have played a part in my spiritual life, by talking to me, teaching me, being an example, through testimonies, blog posts and encouragement. And I'm grateful (:

I realized I would never have come this far in my spiritual walk without God blessing me with the presence of these 'random people' through His random ways. And some of these people, I may not have kept in touch with you very regularly, some even seldom, but know that you have played a huge part in helping me grow in my walk with God.

I look forward to the semester; the year; CF; church; KG; cell; worship; being a student rep; the random people that I will meet; and more random people to come. I look forward to see what God is planning for me this year, and I want to seek more and more of His Word, His will and His ways. I want Him to be proud of me :D

I pray that the KG that I lead this year will grow spiritually. I pray that being elected the student rep of the School of Arts, I will use that privilege to bless and impact the students whom I have the opportunity to reach out to.

"I don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead. I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us." - Phillipians 3: 12-14. 

Ps. Colin Hurt asked a question the other day.
Would you be willing to give up the things that you have now, and suffer WITH Christ?

Hmmm.

Blondes Don't Know How To Use ATMs. Asians too :(

I feel like a blonde :(
So anyway, I wanted to do some online banking till I realized I didn't have an online bank account and I didn't know how to get one. =.= So, I decided to go to the bank the next day to deposit some money into that account.

So I went. And it's my first time doing this and I didn't know how to do it. Apparently there would be instructions on the ATM machine BUT THERE WASN'T. Except for a little ATM card sticker on the machine which was supposed to tell you how to insert your card. Except that it kinda looked like this:

Okay so you see the yellow sticker thing? I thought it meant "place your atm card upwards into the slot"

NOT.

So it got stuck and I couldn't get it out. FYI, I put it into the receipt slot T.T
Sigh. And I panicked and caused a scene in Maybank Taipan. I'm so embarrassed to go there again.

So I had to call them to deactivate/block my card and claim it tomorrow after they dismantle the machine to retrieve my card. Dang I'm so shy to get my card now. Which nut places her ATM card into the receipt area?!

And here comes the inner monologue:
WHY LA GOT SUCH A STUPID SLOT ONE THAT'S USELESS!

Actually I didn't realize it was a receipt slot till Andrew Lin told me. :/

And Gene laughed at me non-stop. He said it was so funny :(
Sigh. Blonde asian moment. :/

Bieber Fever

So. Don't kill me for posting this, but seriously, why do so many people hate Justin Bieber? I mean, if you dislike/hate his music, why hate the poor kid? I suppose I'm not the only one asking myself (and other people for that matter) this question, because if you type "Why do people hate..." on Google, the first thing that pops out is Justin Bieber.

WHY PEOPLE, WHY!?

Apparently, according to one person on Yahoo Answers;

"It's not him as a person, but he is the culmination of how far mass media has fallen and people are getting sick of it. His music is not good. At all. People only think he's good because the people around them say that he's good. And those people only say that he's good because they think the people around them like him. In other words, Justin Beiber is a bad trend. A fad. People should not be getting famous and making tons of money by being a fad. Pretty soon, Beiber will be completely forgotten. Hopefully, the record companies won't find another Beiber to take his place." - Patheher

So, tell me again why we hate Bieber so much if it's the mass media we dislike? Sometimes I think that this Bieber Fever of Hatred is just a wave. Oh, it's cool to hate Bieber so let's do it. YAY! =.=

Because you'd be deemed gay if you like him and stand up for him. =.=

I'm not saying I like Bieber. I mean, I don't have anything against the poor boy, and I'm not a fan of his music but come on haters. GET A LIFE. Stop hating the dude. Your time and energy would be better spent elsewhere, giving constructive comments or writing PROPER reviews instead of saying things like "Bieber is a fag". If you don't like his music, don't listen to it. Switch the channel. Write proper things like maybe his voice control isn't good enough. Or whatever.

Watch this video. It's funny, but what the dude says makes a whole lot of sense. =.=

USA Post: Part 2

So, 2 posts later and here it is!
USA Post Part 2 :D Check out USA Post Part 1 HERE.


More pictures from Disneyland, California Adventure Park.
Do note that Disneyland Anaheim has 2 parks; Disneyland & California Adventure which has the most awesome rides ever! I personally think it's catered for older people/youngsters so the rides there are more thrilling than the ones that they have in Disneyland.

They a;so had World of Colours playing at the California Park in Paradise Pier! It's really beautiful. They use purely water fountains to do all these pretty stuff. I'll add a video down there so you can see what I saw...live! :D

 

It's long but WATCH it. You'll regret it if you don't. DISNEY LOVERS MUST WATCH!

After spending 3 days in Anaheim, we moved over to Big Bear, California for some snow and skiing! It's a lovely town. The kinds that you see in Gilmour Girls; small town where everyone seems to know everyone.

I shall make you guys jealous with pictures of me skiing! HAHAHAHAH. =.=

My instructor asking me to ski downwards

I MADE IT! :D

Hello!

Joy :)

So that wraps up Part 2 of the USA Post!
Check Facebook for more pictures :)

Women Drivers

I don't know if you guys have heard or done this before, but everytime a driver does something inconsiderate that you think will endanger your life, or worse, your car, people usually mumble, "Women Drivers" and then start spewing out a long line of @&!*%^@(!!!!!!!!!

I don't know. My dad does it. Most of my male friends do it. Even some of my female friends. It's like we don't have faith in the driving ability of our womenfolk anymore. Not to say we had any in the first place.

I did a Google search; women can't drive and this is what came up:

Step1
First, women let dogs in their cars. They let those yippy little things run around, sitting on top of another yippy little one equals a big reason why women can't drive.

Step2
Next, women let friends in their cars. Men have their eyes on the road at all times, regardless of the discussion. Women on the other hand, have their focus on everyone except the world rushing towards them. Do us a favor and focus driving.

Step3
Another simple reason is that women obstruct their vision with dangling crap. Whether it be 10 pounds of beads or stuffed animals, these women would actually be better of driving backwards. Until women ditch decorating their windows, they are better off of the road.

Step4
A good reason for women to stay off the road is because they use the mirrors to look at themselves. While they go through metamorphosis between stop lights, they tend to pay less attention to what's happening to their surroundings.

Step5
Women need to stop texting while driving! If you see one texting, make sure to give her some room. Be sure to text back OMG and LOL! Kidding.

Step6
Another good reason why women can't drive is because they have no interest in cars. It's only a means of transportation from point A to B. You can't do anything well at something you know nothing about, right?

Step7
Women also have no spatial awareness. The have to realize that Ipods and cars do not work the same way. You cannot press "Skip" to skip 4 lanes across. You also can't press "shuffle" and expect to parallel park. It just doesn't work that way.

Step8
Lastly, women cannot drive because they do not have the driving gene. It's purely genetic. As for us men, we simply miss the waxing gene. The only solution for women is car insurance.

***********

I personally think that list is a little biased lor. I mean, when I was reading it, it kinda made sense UNTIL number 4. Number 5 is pure bias! As if men don't do the same. I think I'm quite a good driver. Ask around :D So let's see what I'm guilty of.

 1. First of all, I don't have a dog. But I might bring it around if I did have one.
Verdict: N/A

2. Half-true. I hardly talk when I have passengers because I can't drive and talk at the same time. So much for multi-tasking :/
Verdict: Not guilty

3. I wonder that too. Especially women with soft toys blocking half their rear view mirror. Gosh. Verdict: Not guilty

4. I'm vain. Enough said. Sometimes I almost bang a car in front of me because I'm too busy inspecting my face in the mirror even when I'm not at a traffic light.

Verdict: VERY guilty

5. Who doesn't?
Verdict: Guilty

6. OMGGGG. So lame. It's like, saying you can't cook just because you don't like cooking.Or saying you don't like to shit because it wastes your time, so you can't shit properly =.=
[EDIT]
I just realized my analogy was completely off. But it's still a stupid reason.
Verdict: To stupid to even be considered a reason

7. No idea what the dude's analogy is.
Verdict: N/A

8. It's quite unfair, but I think the same goes for us when we say that men can't multitask because it's just NOT in their genes. Anyway, I'm a good driver.
Verdict: N/A

Anyway, long story aside, I wrote about this because everytime I need to park, or everytime I drive, I feel a lotttttt of pressure. Like super a lot until my heart rate increases okay, and I become gelabah. Like when I'm trying to park, this especially, because it takes up a lot of time because I'm a fail parker, I'd glance back at my mirror so often to check if there are any drivers (ahem, male drivers) waiting for me to park so they can pass through. If not this thing in my head will be like, "OMGGGG your parking fail. Take 7 minutes to do reverse parking. Some more reverse so many times. No wonder men say women can't drive la. Cos of people like you ok."

That's not a very nice thought that goes through everytime I want to park. Waaay too much pressure. :/

Point of story: My parking is bad. :( I need to improve.
