point form post

(long post ahead. editors and my boss would call this a post that needs to be cut into three parts!)


Hello dear readers!

1. I apologise for the evident lack of updates lately. You see, I recently started my four-month internship with an agency located far from where I live - it's all the way in KL! The three hour daily commute eats up most of my time, so when I come home, it's way past 9pm and all I want to do is grab some dinner, take a shower and sleep. That's the life of office workers.

God is so good to me - before I even knew about this company, it was exactly where I wanted to do my internship!

2. My job consists of researching on some of the company's clients and keeping up to date with their national/international development. I'm also in charge of creating content and monitoring their social media pages. In other words, I make some of the status updates and watch the client's Facebook pages. Interesting? Of course! Oh, and and, one thing to look forward to next week is the DC comics event in Pavilion :D Exciting stuff. Tuesday!

Also, I was given the task of doing this. I really thank the Lord for this awesome job scope. It seems tailor made for me, and it seems like I was prepared for this job way before time! Man, He is good to those who love Him. Exactly what my youth pastor's wife told me the other day.

[aah. I left my bi-weekly report in the computer at work! gonna hand it in later than usual]



3. And in the week after next, I will be off for a mission trip! I can't wait for that. In Matt 28:19, Jesus said "Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit."

Essentially, a mission trip is what disciples of Jesus are called to do - share the Good News of God's free salvation to all people through ministry (preaching, praying, sharing) and community work, all by the power of God's Holy Spirit.

This is something our senior pastor highly encourages, he tells us to go for missions at least once a year, and I concur wholeheartedly with him. Five years as a child of God and finally, I'm going to the mission field! Praise God. Please keep the team + the people in Sabah in your prayers :)


4. That same week, on the Friday the 10th is the day of the youth music concert, El-Elyon. Like I said before, it's held once every two years and we're looking forward to many people joining us! You're welcome as well!


5. The day after that, on the 11th, Seenamon will be having its sophomore bazaar debut at Creative Muse Marketplace at The Weld, KL. This is organized by the graphics design magazine in Malaysia, Cut Out Magazine. Come and say hi if you're in the vicinity!


6. I have so many more things to say but right now all I want to do is give a shout out to God for keeping me sane throughout these few weeks!

(a) And of course His amazing grace that keeps me from falling into temptation,

(b) and for the wonderful salvation that I have in Jesus,

(c) and for the blessings of friends and family and food and fun and freedom! All the Fs come into play. Ahahaha.








Last words for you kids out there reading this: read your Bible and pray, pray, pray, stay out of trouble and live for God alone. Be wiser and smarter. Think deeper, ask questions, make no enemies, love yourself, eat more vegs and sleep earlier!

a song for wednesday

today's track is a soul/disco/gospel song from the 80s





Time after time
I say oh Lord whats the use
Time after time
I say this just won't do, but
Sooner or later in life the things you love you lose,
Just like before i know i'll call on you

Occasionally
my thoughts are brave and friends are few
Occasionally
I cry out Lord what must I do
Occasionally
I call up Master make me new
You've got the love
I need to see me through

el-elyon 2011





I don't care who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me COME FOR EL ELYON




Greetings everybo-deh!

I cordially and personally invite you for the ONE AND ONLY FREE MUSIC CONCERT IN KLANG for 2011!

What genre of music? I have no idea (yet)!

Here and now is the time to check out what the youngsters at church are up to these days.


June 10th, Friday night - (sliding) doors open at 8pm.

There'll be concert t-shirts on sale that night, and free flow of refreshments.
Partying has no age limits.
It's a two hour event, so stay hydrated with lots of water that night! You're not just sitting in a chair, you know - lots of shouting, jumping, dancing and singing involved! :D

And....a very special speaker will be taking the stage. If you are familiar with the people in Klang, you may know him/her personally!


Exciting stuff. And it only happens ONCE in TWO years!

Gimme a fistbump if you're there!


a post on a post

This is from a post titled I bet my teacher secretly likes the essay that I wrote from Aijean's blog.

Half an hour later, Arif's heard his mother shouting. "Arif! Arif!" shouted his mother. Arif came out and saw his mother standing by the door. "I'm going out to buy some stuff. Don't play with fire and don't do drugs. Don't forget to take care of your sister Laureen." then she walked off.


LOL. DON'T DO DRUGS?!? What mother would actually put that in when talking to her kids?!

What have we been teaching her. Ohmygosh. I laughed so much. Ahahahahaha

im not a fan of bruno mars

a) For the hundredth time...be careful what you put on your blog...it's like leaving your diary out in the open.

b) I am not free! I am taking five before jumping into D.E. assignments.

c) What I like about self-objectifying people is that they don't mind laughing with others at themselves. They are secure in their identity and know that nothing can change who they are or what they are made of, and what happens to them will not affect who they are going to be.
They can be humble and endearing at the same time. And they can laugh at themselves! Who doesn't love someone who doesn't take them self too seriously?

d) God's power is made perfect in your weakness. God knows our weaknesses and doesn't try to make us feel bad about it. How awesome is that? So awesome, that as I am typing this out, I cannot comprehend it.

rings









Seenamon

The items you see here will be up sometime this week. In the meantime, check out the newer stuff already on!

Here’s to the crazy ones.
The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo.
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things.
They push the human race forward.
And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

jesus culture - your love never fails

why spend the day looking for weird videos when you can listen to awesome music like this?!



oh man, this is one of the best songs ive heard.


"You make all things work together for my good"

bookish

Since last year, all the books I read are only read halfway through and abandoned on the bookshelf. I hope to finish these two books soon!

A gift from two sisters!

Okay, the story behind this book is weird. My family used to be non-christians. I always see this book in the store room but never bothered to open it because it was dusty and the cover's falling apart.

Only recently have I bothered to open this book to glance through it - and I am hooked to its refreshing truths on the Christian faith and way of life. (Tozer was an influential Christian preacher) Till today, we still don't know where this book came from or how it ended up in our possession. God's works, man.

This is my dance album. HAHAHA
No seriously.
