A Levels

A Levels itself has been a miracle, and I give Praise to God.
How He has seen and guided me through it all.
How an entire, more grueling year of my life passed.
And now, it is all over, the results has arrived.
















I thank,

The Family, for the continuous support throughout the year and allowing me to study.

Ms. Greenall, for being exceptionally patient with all of us
(honestly, if she just thought something and you weren't paying attention
and ask her the exact thing she just taught,
she'll smile and repeat it all again, trust me, it happened, MANY TIMES)

Ms. Chee, for being an extremely dedicated lecturer, teacher. (She would explain it over and over again if you don't understand)

Ms. Loh, for being one heck of a lecturer and making Mechanics so easy. I honestly understood every single thing that was taught. ( I still will not forgive myself for being such a letdown)

Mr. Loo, for having such passion and knowledge for Physics. I now appreciate all the times you won't even let us go 5 mins earlier. Or when you would ignore our desperate need for a coffee break.

Last but certainly not least, Mr. George! How can I (We) ever forget you.
You made Chemistry so interesting, so much fun, and so much of hell.
You made me do so much studying and preparation BEFORE entering the class.
You made me so stressful every time I'm in class, always on the edge of my sit,
knowing the name Anton would slip out of your mouth any second.
And for all, that, Thank You!
You believed in me even more than I could myself.
Whoever dare question you as a educator can first come to me!

To my church members, for all the prayers. I really was showered with so much prayer,and I believe that is one of the reasons for my results.

Most importantly, TO GOD, for without You I am nothing.
You deserve all glory. My journey was truly a miracle.
From starting 3 months behind everyone else,
(mind you, there was no extra chem class for April intake)
to being called to Ms. Sathya's room as I did not perform as expected,
informing her that I was seriously considering dropping Physics,
to Mr. Loo convincing my parents i shouldn't drop it,
to Ms. Sathya asking me to at least try for AS,
And finally an A.
While some may question& see it as a waste of time,
I never hesitated attending church, YF, PM on weekends and days,
because it brought joy and I know I am serving the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

My God is an awesome God.
He is a God is the possible and the impossible.
Take my case as an example.
how can messing up my favorite paper Mechanics end up with an A?
What about the pages in Chem that i left blank?
And so, He is Awesome and indescribable.

Given under other circumstances, I may do better, but I am incredibly grateful.

Be Still, and know that I am God.

Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!

Kuantan

Was away with the family to Kuantan last weekend.
We stayed in Hyatt, Kuantan.
I think it was the best hotel in that area already.
This trip was definitely different, because i could really relax.
Honestly, there's nothing else to do in Kuantan but to relax.
Hyatt's beach was awesome, mainly due to the fact
that i could just access it through an opening by the pool.
Unlike all my Penang/ PD trip where beaches also do surround me,
the food were all so tempting that I barely got to enjoy nature.
This time however, I fully utilized mother nature.
It was 3 days of sand, beach and pool.

Scroll down and envy..

Sunset so notice the pictures getting darker.

My failed jumping pic. My arms look dislocated.



















Oh, btw, I saw Jimmy Choo in Pyramid the other day.
I don't have the original soft copy yet, so here's the edited copy my sis did.
















I also managed to meet the Chong sisters, Vanessa and Pamela
from TARA 2. We've been a fan of theirs since day 1.

The other dog.

When we came back from Penang last month,
we found a small puppy shivering in the rain and cold,
on the patch of grass right opposite our house.
Needless to say, no cold blooded human would have left the poor thing there to die.
Honestly, I believe it would have died if not. It was so small.
So, we cleaned her up and made our home a temporary shelter for her.
It was rare, it was a white chihuahua.
We were awaiting and expecting posters of a lost dog to be up.
We soon realized that this dog was not well taken care of,
the vet said that the dogs teeth were in very bad condition.
We also realized that this dog had no voice.
It was then clear that it belonged to a breeder,
No wonder they don't even realized it was missing.
And Oh, this puppy is actually a 4-5 year old dog.
We named her Cotton.
Cotton stayed with us for about 3 weeks.
We took good care of her but she didn't have the
luxury of roaming the house at anytime like my other dog.
Once my dad's colleague agreed to take cotton, we knew it was time to let her go.
She went to a much better home.
She now sleeps with them on their bed,
although she has her own brand new bed and clothes worth more than RM300.
So, here are the pictures of her.




















Don't think she's that small?




















How about now?



































Where she sleeps at night.















How she sleeps at night.




















The day she had to leave.


































Sending her away.



















Goodbye Cotton. We'll miss you.

A little something

As promised, from the last post of about a month ago,
the " little somethings" I got from Hard Rock Penang.
In 2008, while in the states, I started a hobby.
A good but expensive one. Aunt Anna bought me a land yard.
Then i started...
Pin collecting!

The first one I got was from Hard Rock, Hollywood.




















Then I got this,



















When we visited miami beach,














Dad brought back these,



















How patriotic.




















So, while visiting Hard Rock Hotel, Penang.
I got myself a couple more to add on to the collection.
It is really an expensive hobby, these cost RM45 each.




















This piece is not a limited edition, but it was the last piece available.




















This is a limited edition. Only 150 pieces in the world.

So, next time when you are out of ideas on what to get me...
Or when you go overseas and visit a Hard Rock Shop..
You know what to get me.
Hint to all Hard Rock Pin collectors, be sure to get
1. The ones that states Hotel over Cafe,
they are worth more inthe long run as there are to date only
13 Hard Rock Hotels in the world.
2. The ones that states limited addition at the back.




















The yet completed Land yard. Feel free to add to it anytime.
