Life is really a surprise. It may bid you no farewell neither send you a ticket for your departure. Even then, life goes on.

Some of you may already know that my dear friend and definitely a dear friend to many other and a wonderful son to Mr. and Mrs. Robert has been called by God to a better place with better circumstances.It really took a toll on his family and a lot of us who was close to Gary. Every time I hear the family, especially the mom wailing, my heart’s inner core is crushed. For a parent to see their child leaving them before them is just beyond description.

Nevertheless, life goes on. Should we choose to just stay in the pit of depression, life still goes on. Not one moment will stop for us to take a moment for the departed. Therefore, dear friends and family of Gary’s, while we keep Gary close in memory, let us strive our lives with full enthusiasm for the Lord that when it is our time to finish the race, we will be able to see the Lord and our dear friend Gary and many more up in where roads are made of gold and there is no night. :)

 

*warning : This is a Geeky post.

In case if you don’t know, I got my new com somewhere in early June. Honestly, I wasn’t even thinking of getting one until my graphic card went kong which really frustrated me while one of my ex-colleagues, Zahiyidi (I hope it’s correct :P ) during intern was discussing a lot of com stuffs with me. Fell into temptation and got myself a rig.

p/s : I must take this moment to thank Zahiyidi for helping me a lot especially with the casing. Without him, I’ll prob be using some ciplak casing. ^^

Anyways, I’ve just decided to change my OS from XP(32 bit) to Windows 7 – RC version(64 bit) . At this point of time, I’d say it’s been giving me slight problems such as crashing while trying to start L4d and a lil problems starting up, prob due to Daemon Tools of which I can’t uninstall.

Other than that, it’s been great. Performance has improved I’d say. Multi tasking works very much better while the HD doesn’t seem to work slower. Graphic wise, I can’t say much as I’ve not tested the games which I doubt I will anytime soon. Though I’d say my booting time is slower as compared to XP.

I can’t compare to Vista as I do not use Vista. Anyways, here’s a snippet of my desktop for now.

Less work.

I did not hear screamings and shoutings.

Nice, quiet day …..

Everybody needs to learn it to a certain degree.

One way to gauge yourself is to check for wrinkles. The more you have, the higher the degree of it that you’ll need.

I was holding a windows xp cd in hand and a packet of rubbish in another. Went to the rubbish bin to throw the disc into it LOL…..

I’m not sure if I’m growing old or distracted .. by ……. lol

Now that my semester’s done .. One hectic I’d say. I’ve definitely learn more about working in groups. Most of the time, the members are just not proactive and you gotta take charge. If not, you’ll just end up with either really crappy work or, you’d gotta do most of it. Worst is when you have a leader that’s … well … mostly all talk and no work ….

Sad to say but when it comes to groups, I ‘d say that a lot of Malaysians are ’shy’ … There are a few good ones among the many mediocre ones. But again, if you take the normal distribution curve, it probably will explain such phenomenon. You can only have so many good ones …. ~~

Anyway, work will be starting soon (tomorrow) @ TROIKA. Another splendid project by IJM; building a condo around KLCC. Well, my journeys would definitely be interesting .. lol

It’s time to let go of everything I have ….

When Christmas Night was over, it didn’t feel as if a burden has been lifted,instead it felt more like apart of me had just .. died off perhaps. All the late nights trying to figure out ideas and solutions for Christmas Night’s play are over. No more worrying bout that. No more thinking of dates and the timing to accomodate as many casts as possible, no more crazy stunts pulled by casts. Life becomes, ‘normal’ again. I did admit that I was feeling sad and pretty depressed at first.

However, as time moves on, so do I. I do not deny that from time to time, I do get nostalgic with all those moments where Aaron and I spent with the cast, or writing the script. But it’s as good as that gets. Life has much more to offer than to just be stagnant with the past. God’s more plans for me to continue His will.

So with that, I am letting go of things, especially my past. Things that I’ve been struggling to hold on, struggling to forget, I’m officially letting it go. Surrendering all that I have again and again to my Redeemer, that I remind myself that living by my own strength can get me to great heights, but living by God’s strength will get me to where I’ll never want to leave.

Actually, I’m posting because PY asked me to post something. So, I should emo abit ….

And life doesn’t get any less busy at any point =.

It’s been 2 months since I last posted anything! Wow! ahahaha ….

In fact, I’m not even sure why I’m posting @ such an hour with my eyes half closed. I guess it’s just a habit that I like to do my typing in the middle of the night. Well, life’s definitely been one heck of a roller coaster ride. I was busy with projects, and projects, and then I had to prepare for my finals. Now that I’m done with my finals, I am busy in the midst of preparing for Christmas Night 2008. While busy preparing, I have been stealing time to have my foot outside the house; quite frequenty within this one week. From celebrating my birthday with my 2 lovely friends, to makan/minum, late night badminton, and malacca which I just came back from a couple of hours ago. I would love to post the pics, but they’re not here yet. Not sure when I’l get them. Definitely can be seen in face book sometime soon I suppose..

There’s one thing I realise most is that in all this busy-ness, I have managed to devote myself to a more disciplined and consistent time of doing my devotion. Without fail, I managed to get up, and actually read the Bible. Give it some thought … Hey, I’m still struggling man. Life ain’t easy with all the ‘exciting’ events happening and then you just tend to put God aside.

Well, to many people, the issue of God .. isn’t very much personal. God’s God and He has His own way, and yeah He’s there … and He’s there. There’s nothing much within the two of you. I, on the contrary, disagree with that. I believe that God’s striving for a relationship with all of us. Today, as I was walking around jonker street, ( and watching this famous old man poking a hole into a coconut – no joking~ >_>), I kept on pondering on how many really know that God is not very far away. He’s actually reaching out to each and everyone of us everyday and how we neglect Him, not to mention reminding the ones around us that hey, God’s watching out for you and you’re in His best interest. I’m definitely trying to tell people .. but if only I could work up more courage eh .. :)

Ain’t it cool to be awesome! :P
