A Gentle Reminder

No matter how far apart you and your family may be,
they always got your back,
supporting you whenever you make a choice,
scolding you when you don't learn from your mistakes,
thinking about the embarassing things that you have done,
fighting for you when you get hurt,
worrying about you no matter how old you get,
care about you in the things that you do,
missing you constantly even though they never admit it,
loving you for just the way that you are,
believing in you when you tell the truth,
and never give up on you no matter how unworthy you are.

Why do I keep forgetting that?

Eating Frenzy

Rainbow

KimberlyMay is back to her finest lair... and she is enjoying herself :D

Ever since I got home yesterday, my Mum has been stuffing food down my throat.. literally. Once I got down the bus at Sungai Nibong, we went to eat Ka Li Mee at Pulau Tikus. Quite spicy but still tasty~! And for dinner, she prepared 6 dishes of FOOD! Yeah.. My Mum tends to go full force whenever any of her children comes back for holiday. She likes to feed us. Hehe... So whenever we go home, we will gain a few pounds and that is unavoidable. She prepared curry chicken, Pang Kuang Char, Kor Kuar, Egg with Mushroom, Grilled Salmon and another one which I can't recall at the moment. I am still amazed that we were able to finish everything. I'll upload the pictures of the food when I get the chance.

Today, we had Jawa Mee and Lo Bak for lunch. Baskin Robbin Ice Cream during tea time. Japanese food for dinner. Wah... I always ended up eating a lot whenever I come home! It is really ridiculous when I think about it. Later gonna have dessert some more.... *grin* Yeah, I'm definitely gonna get fat this weekend and I really couldn't careless at the moment!! I know I will complain after a few days... hehe... My Mum is baking Rock Cake right NOW~!!!! So excited!!!!

Tomorrow I shall be going back to Subang Jaya, back to the life of a student. Well, you can't always have a good thing all the time. Gotta go back to reality and work. Just have to keep working harder from now on as final examinations are one month away. Pretty nervous when I think about it. Anyway, toodles. I'm going to spend some more time with my parents before I leave tomorrow.

Sick Reality

Coming home for the weekend is always a refuge for me, mentally and physically. It is always a comfort. However, reality never gives me a break.

While having some heart to heart conversations with my Mum, she told me that a sister we know is having skin cancer, stage 4. She has melanoma and it is the most serious type of all skin cancer. I was really shocked because she is only in her thirties. To my understanding, I always thought Caucasians would have a higher chance of getting skin cancer as they are much fairer, which makes them more vulnerable. She didn't want to let a lot of people know about her condition and that even her colleagues have no idea what she is going through. I'm sure she has her own reasons for doing so. In moments like this, I always feel rather cold, as in not worrying much about it. In my heart, I always believe that everything happens for a reason and I also believe that God's purpose in that particular situation will be manifested through her and to everyone around her. Though I can't understand what is it like for her or how she is feeling, I trust in the Lord will guide her through. That's why sometimes I feel that I'm kind of cold, not worrying much about it. I know there is only one thing that I can do and that is to pray. May the Lord give her strength to overcome her present situation.



Trust in Jehovah with all your heart,
Do not rely on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
O the depth of the riches
And wisdom and knowledge of God!
How unsearchable are His judgments
And untraceable His ways!
Because out from Him and through Him
And to Him are all things.
To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

P.S.
Is it just me or is quite a number of people having cancer lately? So far I already know three people having cancer. Sigh... sick reality.

Where is your heart?

This is going to be a short post as I'm having Pharmacology Test tomorrow. *horror* Anyway, I just want to share a bit on what I enjoy tonight during the prayer meeting.

There were eight saints from China came to the prayer meeting tonight and they told us a lot of testimonies of the church life in China. Though China is still under the control of People's Republic of China, the saints there are still willing to sacrifice their life for the Lord. I can't really imagine how their life really is even though they had said a lot about it but I am sure that life is definitely not easy for them. Heck, life is never easy in the first place. However, one thing from their testimonies that really captures my attention, which is the thing that keeps them going forward and being motivated, is - their heart. Where does your heart lie upon? The world or God? If our heart is for the Lord, then whatever we do or say, will be for Christ, through Christ, with Christ and by Christ. I suppose this matter touches me deeply is because that my heart is never single and pure. Temptations would always distract me away from the path of life, not just in terms of spirituality but also in responsibility and priority. Whatever you set your heart upon, that is what's keeping you motivated and moving on. Therefore, set your heart on the things of Christ, as it is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life... John 6:63.

Red Light , so Stop

Woke up feeling moody and guilty. I had given a confirmation to someone that I would go to that event. However, I couldn't make it. It sucks of course. I was really looking forward to it too... Not able to do what you had promised, it's just an empty promise filled with words that has no worth at all. So just feeling moody right now.

Well... thinking about it, I guess I deserved it... I prayed yesterday that Lord may manage my time to do the things that I'm suppose to do including the event that I wanted to go to. In the end, He made me stayed at home. This reminds me of myself when I was in my first year at university. First time away from home, wanted to do a lot of stuff and there was a lot of distractions as well. Hence, I eventually ended up neglecting my responsibilities. I don't want to make the same mistake again.

Therefore, I do not want to feel moody anymore and I want to make full use of the extra time to fulfill my duty so that I do not disappoint the Lord during my university life. I would like to share something I enjoyed this week...

Ephesians 6:10 - 'Finally, be EMPOWERED in the Lord and in the MIGHT of His STRENGTH.'

I do admit that I have a lot of weakness and I do get distracted easily, however, I know that whatever that I am not or whatever I need, He is. I may not get to do the things that I want all the time and it's all right. Light will show us the way, but strength and power will enable us to walk the road.

The Other Side of Me

For quite some time, I have kinda forgotten an enormous part of my life. It would still remained forgotten if I had not stumbled to a blog of a very very old friend of mine. Seeing the pictures... they really changed a lot. Awkwardness, is how I feel, especially to be placed in a situation like this. Still, I am fully aware that it is not my portion and also it's not within my capabilities to fix the ugly side of man's deeds. What's done is done and he is unwilling to forgive. It is a shame though, to lose out such a huge part of your life. I can't fully understand it but I knew he did what he could only do. Oh well... I am glad that they are all still healthy and well. May the Lord bless him and them in every way. That's all I'll blog for today.. toodles~

Food Lover

Last week, during the so-called semester break, my "MUMMY" and I went to Sunway Pyramid for dinner. So we were feeling a bit adventurous and decided to try out something new. Since there were so many new restaurants we never been to, we were really scratching our heads to choose the best option for the night. Finally, we decided on Michelangelo's Italian Restaurant. We did have a hard time looking for this place, but that is no big deal. When we were ordering the food, we were thinking maybe this is something like TGI's Friday where the food portion is quite large as the food were quite pricey. So we ended up sharing one of the Chef's Recommendations, which is a pizza with three types of poultry; ham, pepperoni and beef. The portion quite small though. Just sufficient for one person. I do like the thin crust of the pizza, just like the real Italian pizza and not Pizza Hut. Not bad at all.


Later, we had desserts, the Chocolate Lava Cake. I tell you, the size of the cake is just slightly a bit larger than the 50sen coin! And no, I am not exaggerating. It also comes with a tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream. We were like, "RM10 for this?????" However, I must stress on this, once we taste it, it was SO GOOD! It was REALLY REALLY GOOD! Way better than the Molten Chocolate Cake in TGI's. The cake was soft yet crispy and the molten chocolate inside was HEAVENLY!!! Ahhh... just thinking of it makes me drools.... Obviously, it was good but not satisfying~! Therefore.... we went to Waffle World to get our second helping of dessert! Need I say more? XD

PUNK'D on April Fool's Day

I really thought that it was going to be a peaceful April Fool's Day - no practical jokes and no hoax. I kinda thought we were all mature enough to see past these little "joys" in life. But I did ended up getting PUNK'D at the end of the day.

My friend Hui Wearn aka Mummy, had an eye infection in her right eye and there was inflamed. It looks pretty bad and she told me she was going to the clinic near Sunway Pyramid. Here's a brief overview of the entire conversation during MSN that fateful night.

KimberlyMay: Hey, how's your eye?
HuiWearn: Not good. She found a pus. She told me to go and see an eye specialist ASAP.
KimberlyMay: Hah... that bad ah?
HuiWearn: Yalor... delay too long d.... She told me have see a specialist soon or else I might lose my eye.
KimberlyMay: Hah... then, when are you going?
Hui Wearn: Not going le, no time. See how, I'll try to rearrange.
KimberlyMay: Hah... but the doctor said it's serious wor~ and you are saying no time?
Hui Wearn: Don't worry. She told me at the end, HAPPY APRIL FOOL!
KimberlyMay: .......................... crap.
