IS IT WORTH IT?

Love is a funny thing.. When you love someone, you would do anything for that lucky person. You would try and copycat his mom's recipes of his favourite dish (although you don't even know what is a lemon grass).. You would try to sew back the button that fell off his shirt (although you prick your fingers on the needle countless of time).. You would give him a massage when he's having a headache (although you need one yourself).. You would buy him a wallet (although your purse is in a shabby shape).. You lend him money whenever he needs it (although you don't have enough for yourself).. You would buy him an expensive watch to replace his old one (although you don't even have a watch yourself).. But after all the sacrifices that you have done, it is still not enough.. To know that you are not the one that he has on his mind all these while makes you looked foolish and it hurts real bad.. You don't know what when wrong.. All you know is that you have done your very best and has sacrifice a lot for him without him appreciating any of it.. In the end, is it worth it to do anything for the person that you love?

WHAT IF...

Went to SMK Luar Bandar Miri this morning. Almost involved in an accident. Thank God I manage to avoid from being hit by that careless driver. Because of that incident, it got me thinking.. Life has been so good so far but if I was to leave this world behind especially in a sudden way, what would happen? What would others react to it? Are they going to be sad? Are they going to cry? Are they going to regret whatever that they said or done to me? Are they going to pray that my soul would rest in peace? Or are they going to be glad that I'm finally not going to bother them anymore? What have I contribute to this world during my lifetime? I can think of none. I might never know the answers for all these questions but one thing for sure, I hope that in the short period of time while walking down the history lane of my life, I have done something good for others. I have shared their joy and laughter as well as their tears and sorrows. I have make it a point to be nice to others and be considerate. I have done my best in my work, my relationship with others and my ministry. I have above all serve the Lord with all my heart and my soul.. I hope I have left behind my footprint.. my legacy..

Termenung jauh..

Kingwood Resort, Mukah.

Sunset in Mukah.

Minggu ni travelling di Mukah, Oya, Dalat, Igan, Matu dan Daro. Boleh tahan juga tempat ni. Banyak tempat-tempat yang cantik dan menarik. Makanan pun sedap. Paling dikagumi tengok sunset di pantai. Satu saja masalah sini, jalan dari Selangau sampai simpang Baligian-Mukah tu rosak teruk. Kalau tak, memang saya bagi 100% markah untuk kawasan ni.

Kali ni saya travel dengan Hansley Tama & Grace Ikie. Ni muka-muka kami yang tak tau malu ni. Haha..

Kami bertolak dari Kuching pada sekitar pukul 9am (11 Mei 2009) dan tiba di Mukah pada sekitar 7pm. Sempat lagi tengok sunset dan bergambar di pantai Kingwood Resort (rujuk gambar di atas tu).

2nd day, kami bergambar di Tapak Pesta Kaul (rujuk juga gambar di atas). Sebelah malam, kami makan di rumah Nicholas Benedict. Saltihie pun join waktu tu. Suka sangat rumah Nick tu, very classic. Boleh tahan juga masakan Nick. Dia masak tom yam udang, sweet n sour kerapu, ikan putih stim dan umai. Kenyang kami sampai bulat2 perut balik hotel malam tu. Hahaha..

Besok (15 Mei 2009) dah nak balik Kuching. Harap dapat datang lagi ke Mukah ni. :)

p/s Gambar-gambar sekolah dan yang lain-lain akan di upload dalam facebook.

DIRIKU YANG MAKIN GEMUK INI

Alahai.. makin gemuk dah saya ni. Macam mana mo slim down wor?.. Asal travelling ja, mesti naik berat badan. Takkan terpaksa exercise dalam bilik hotel kot? Boring eh..

Minggu ni (19-24 April 2009) saya travelling di Limbang pula. Stay di Purnama Hotel. Ni pun saya tengah pakai wireless kat hotel ni. Sempat lagi saya pergi shopping di Labuan semalam (22 April 2009). Apa lagi, habis saya borong chocolate di sana (ehem.. belum gaji bah.. jadi beli 1 jenis ja. hehe..). Baru tadi saya pergi borong ikan tahai & keropok-keropok di pasar tamu. Gerenti makin gemuk lagi lepas ni.

Lepas ni tak tau travel kat mana pula. Tapi harap boleh kasi slim ini badan la. Macam mana mo kahwin gemuk macam ni wor? *wink* (angan2 mat jenin..)

Jadual ceramah saya sepanjang minggu ni:

MY JOURNEY TO SMK BELAWAI

At Belawai beach.

Accepting my 'cenderahati'.

Form 3 & Form 5 students of SMK Belawai.

Welcome to SMK Belawai, Mukah.

Welcome to Tanjung Manis.

April 14th, 2009 - I woke up at 6.30am. I had arrived at the little town of Sarikei yesterday. Today I have to travel to Belawai. I have never been to Belawai before. I had asked around and my guess is that it would take me 3 hours to reach SMK Belawai in Mukah division. My talk starts at 10:30am. So, if I take the 7:30am express boat, it would be just nice.

7:30am - I reached the Sarikei Terminal and boarded the express boat heading towards Tanjung Manis. From there I have to catch a ride to Belawai. I was surprised that it took us 1 hour to reach Tanjung Manis. From there we were lucky enough to board a van that charged us only RM8 for our trip from Tanjung Manis to SMK Belawai. I was even surprised that it only took us not more than 20 minutes to reach the school.

9:20am - We have arrived at SMK Belawai, Mukah. We were welcome by its PK1 and was ushered in to meet the principal. Later the counselor, Cikgu Tarmizie brought us to the school canteen for breakfast. The table was overflooded with food! I think I ate a plate of mee goreng and several pieces of cakes plus a cup of coffee.

10:30am - We were brought to the school hall. My travelling partner, Siti Nurazlilah started the talk until 12:15pm and I continued until about 1:30pm. It was stuffy because the hall was packed with form 3 & form 5 students. It felt like buckets of sweat were pouring out of my body. After summing up everything, the school was kind enough to give us souvenir as token of appreciation.

1:30pm - They fed us with food again. This time it was a spread of hot and spicy seafood. I really ate a lot in this school. The food really is fabulous.

2:10pm - Cikgu Tarmizie offered to send us to the Tanjung Manis Terminal but before that we were brought around to see Belawai & Rajang township (which is very small). He even brought us to the beach so that we could take some pictures.

3pm - We arrived at Tanjung Manis Terminal just in time to catch the second last express boat to Sarikei. We slept the whole way feeling tired but glad that the trip was worthwhile.

Goodbye SMK Belawai and thank you. We sure will come and visit you again! :)

DECLAN GALBRAITH

This is an amazing song by an amazing young singer. Found this song through youtube. Not only he's good looking, he has a super hot voice too. Double WOW factors if you tell me. *Giggling*

It has been a busy start this new year. My workload increase tremendously. And I'm starting to feel less and less motivated. It's going to be a busy week next week. I don't even have to time to upload photos taken during my Christmas holidays and also photos from Sura/Iduk's wedding. *Sigh!*

Hopefully everything will slow down by February 2009 but I doubt it. Mom, dad & Iwie (my brother) might be coming over during Chinese New Year one week from now. Luckily mom didn't nag me for not going back this Chinese New Year holiday.

Really hope I could update my blog as much as I like. For those of you who has been following my blog, sorry for not updating my blog for quite sometime. Once I hit the road-traveling to the schools during the March semester, I might be able to do something about it.

Hope you'll enjoy this song entitled 'Angel' by Declan Galbraith...

Wishing all of you GONG XI FA CHAI + a red & prosperous New Year!!!
