Friends and Life

Friendships are moments in life, can be short or long... realistically, most friendships are short... only a few are chosen to last long, as long as u can imagine... even if they last long, r the characters involved close frens or normal frens? How do u define 'close'?

For me, close frens means frens that have a mutual relationship where both parties care abt each other at all times and there r no such word as 'secret' in their dictionary... Most ppl I'll say, have one close frens in their lives, while some r lucky enuf to have more than one... however, for some ppl, there's not even one in their everyday lives... so where do I belong then? Oh well, I guess I belong to the latter category...

For those who have close frens in their lives, I think it's only sensible for them to cherish every minute of their friendships, as compared to ppl like me who can't even get hold of one second of it... I walk alone, yes that's a fact... but one day, I believe that I won't anymore...

Being A Teacher ~~~

After a whole week of dealing with little kids, I'm quite tired lo...

For the whole of this week and next week, I'll be a teacher, teaching little kids about Christian knowledge. It's held in a primary school of my hometown, and everyday I have to be there from morning till evening. It's not that original for me la, cuz I've been a helper for a few years before. But hor, this is the 1st time I need to be the main teacher, I mean like reli teaching kids...

After a whole week of teaching kids of 8 n 9 years old, my conclusion: I'm not suitable to be a teacher at all, and thank God I'm not going to be one in future, hahahaha!!! Anyway, still got one week to go... haiz... >.<

My Cousin's Marriage

My cousin and his wife in the middle

It was a quite a hectic day for me yesterday. Attended my cousin's wedding ceremony at Sacred Heart Cathedral, Sibu in the morning, then went to my aunt's house for buffet lunch straight after the ceremony. Lastly at night, attended his wedding dinner at Kingwood Hotel. Actually I'm very close to this particular aunt, so that's why I can be considered to be quite close to this cousin and his brothers if compared to all my other cousins.
However, there's something that I observed yesterday that gave me something to think about. During the wedding ceremony, I was very close to the bride and bridegroom when the priest was asking them all those 'do you' questions and stuffs, as I was an altar server (if u dunno what is that, here's a pic of me, haha!).

As u can see, I have to be beside the priest to assist him in his works. And yesterday morning, my duty was to hold the microphone for both the priest and the bride and bridegroom. Let's get to the point then. So when it was time for exchanging rings, I held the microphone for the bride and the bridegroom as they said their vows to each other. What reli attracted my attention was the way they said it, and the way they looked into one another's eyes. Both of them were so nervous, and when they uttered the words "N., take this ring as a sign of my love and fidelity", I looked at their eyes and saw the deepest and truest love and trust they poured out to each other through those words. Although those were just a few simple English words, they contained some of the deepest meanings and feelings which not everyone will understand unless u experience it urself.
After thinking about that for a while, I came to a conclusion that marriage is something that is very sacred and meaningful. It should only happen once in everyone's lifetime. As u utter those words to ur other half, u should mean it to the fullest and keep ur promise to ur other half for the rest of ur life. As I looked at my cousin, I reli hope that one day, I'll be in his position to utter those words to that someone out there, and I promise myself that I'll utter it from the bottom of my heart and have no regrets. ;)

My Holiday Life So Far

As I'd mentioned, the reason I opened this blog is because I'm just too bored at home lo. Right now I'm actually having my MUFY semester break (those who don't know, it means Monash University Foundation Year =D). It's almost two months long, very lucky, right?
Nah... When ur back at ur hometown by urself when all ur close frens r still studying in the west, it is actually very BORING!! Everyday I'm just stucked at home with nowhere to go, so pity myself... Haha... All my other MUFY frens r so busy everyday, movies... food... outings... So envy them la... =.=
So what I do at home everyday then? Wake up every morning between 10am and 12pm, eat brunch, computer, computer, computer....... then sleep between 1am and 3am at night... how pathetic is that? Zzzzz... I just hope I'll be more busy starting next week with all the church activities coming... Haha...
