..all the time, all the time God is good. Sometimes, you know it only when it's time.
It was a bright Saturday morning and i heard birds chirping cheerily.on my bed. I mean i was still on my bed when i heard birds chirping -_- I had set my alarm the previous night to awake me a little bit later in the morning because i literally mugged till it was past midnight. Yes, because today, is my final paper day.
But again, my alarm hadn't rang when i was conscious enough to notice the sound of birds chirping. 0_0. I woke up before it's time to!!! No surprise: my stomach ached.
So i headed to the toilet, and discovered, i had diarrhoea. Puerfecto.
So, i travelled to and flo the toilet within the next few hours. and gosh, my inflating anxiety for exam doesn't help much.
My trip to uni was quite smooth and yet, right before entering the exam hall (it was 5 minutes before my paper started..), i had the urge to 'loose' again. I couldn't take it anymore and i talked as loud as i can (in my head of cos, and whispered inaudible voice within the toilet cubicle), " Daddy God, this has to STOP!! Please..I need it to stop..please." i think i forgot to say, "Thank you."
and yes, yes, it was happy ending :) I didn't had a single diarrhoea after that 'silent' request. During my paper, my stomach was obediently good and healthy. The night felt good and i knew i had bade diarrhoea a very pleasant good bye :). Phew. I was sooooo thankfulll...yay. Daddy God is so awesome. He answered my request.
Thanks to my confidence, the following day, i ended having ice-cream as breakfast with 'Durian' flavor as one of the scoope, followed by pistachio-flavored, dark chocolato and bailey's...hehe and guess wat?.. my diarrhoea popped up again. yaickz. But, im feeling better now. tee-hee.

Silence.
Perhaps You didn't come...to my room today.
Or You were present but chose to be silent,
the entire time.
I don't know why.
For i waited to hear You speak,
but i heard none.
It was mere silence.
But daddy God, i remembered to encourage myself.. in You.
For though my eyes can't see
my heart, believes.
That daddy God, You are the God,
who made the sand a boundary for the sea,
an everlasting barrier it cannot cross.
The waves may roll, but they cannot prevail;
they may roar, but they cannot cross it. (JER 5:22)
n yet, daddy God,
You..You..You
chose to be my biggest Lover.
So i say, i will find You tomorrow,
hear You speak, again.
Definitely.

Daddy God is my almond tree....
Because He watches over me. unceasingly.
Just found out that almond tree is the first tree that blossomed every year (it wakes up early) and as the Bible stated, in Hebrew, the literal meaning of 'wake' is actually to 'watch'.
Hmmm, the Bible never failed to astonish me with its profoundness.
ok ..gotta continue revision for my paper tomolo..so itchy-hand, can't sit still and study. haiz!! shall resume now, seriously! :p

Let's talk about....
COMMITMENT.
It is funny how the world and its inhabitant pursue advancement and growth in whatever aspects they could get their hands on: economy, technology, entertaintment, fashion, education, and yadayadayada..
They wake up every morning, had breakfast, off to work, met clients and settled a project, made profit, advanced the company and then the new cycle began. Or the entertaintment industry that unceasingly injected unconventional music & groove that spun entire globe to validate again and again that 'life without music is empty'. But it is funny that despite our outward advancement, we are drifting behind, digressing inwardly in such a fundamental value that perhaps only most 'old-fashioned' people understood of its intricateness and stayed within the line. Perhaps you are wondering the reason of me writing this.
I had a supper the other day at a restaurant named 'CC' (of coz its not the real name...to protect its identity) with a bunch of frens. Prior to entering, we saw this promotional board outside that states '50% off' on some of its food. We were excited and went in straight away, placed our order and waited for our meal. I ordered a dish (a finger food) that was initially costed like a normal meal (coz i wanted to share it with my frens instead of having a meal on my own) and i thought that since it's 50% off, its probably worth the price.
In the middle of our conversation, a waiter came to notify me that a certain ingredient was 'absent' and whether it was ok to switch to an alternative ingredient. Now let me explain, the main ingredient is the reason behind the EXPENSIVE price it charged and the alternative costed like half of it. I pouted for a while before saying 'yes, it's fine'. Of course it's fine for me!! because i didn't go there for the food, i went there to spend time with my friends. But it is NOT FINE for CC to do that. (forgive me if i start to sound like i'm contradicting myself). My friends' meals arrived in half the normal portion. Everybody was commenting that it was rather 'normal' since what can you expect from a 50% off meal. They were so forgiving.
Never mind what i feel.
I just thought i didn't agree to dine on a '50% off' meal that was attached to a '50%-off' ingredient deal. Just because there's a propensity of making a loss, doesn't give you the right to break that commitment of giving your customer a full value worth of something that now came with discounted price. Screw that marketing strategy (maybe it worked, but i don't buy that). My apology, but i don't take this thing lightly. Because if you noticed, some of the biggest collapses in human's history lay in the failure of men to remain committed to their words. You had the choice to make or not make that commitment in the first place, hadn't you?
Perhaps CC should focus on giving customers values..but it's story for another day.
and hey, anyway i've forgiven u CC...we all make mistakes..and i will still go to dine there next time :)
and maybe im not in the place to write this..but hey, we can alweiz learn from each other rite??

pink bicycle
I saw a pink bicycle today
parked just outside my window
the kind that was cheaply painted
but left me captivated
It stood beneath a tall tree
that hosts green and yellow leaves
surrounded with long grasses
yet, it stood out
as though saying hi to me
from afar
i wonder
am just wondering
who the owner is
..can i borrow ur pink bike?

The word...
"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts."
