Tea Plantation-Stairs-Marchantia sp + vain JH

I got this pic from somewhere la.
This picture reminded me of a lot of things. And currently itz the wallpaper for my laptop... (but it will no longer be when I got the laptop back after one month or so.. *sobs*)

Looking at the picture..
"My identity lies behind the tea plantation.." I said.

~~Yeah right~~!

Really.. there is this one thing in the picture of tea plantation that ties me back to the sweet memories I had when I was in CH. Although I am from Ipoh, but I have only been to CH twice. Camp Cam was my first visit to CH and T.H.E. Camp was my second time to CH. Hehehe..


This fleet of stairs.. The wallpaper of my PC back home. Hahaha... I got it from Mel's blog long long time ago. Well, I climbed up these stairs everyday when I was in CC 06'.. sambil climbing, sambil looking for Marchantia sp.

This is the Marchantia sp which Su-yen and I was so obsessed about thru'out the 3 weeks in Campcam. We were looking for it whenever and wherever we walked together to some places in the morning, afternoon.. and evening.. hahahaha... It's fun when biologist meets biologist! =p

We are the 2 biologists in the family.

I know I have been super vain lately.. And I am going to 'kena' from some people. That's why I dare not put this picture so big.. =p

haha.. the same 3 gila girls with the same shirt.. MSK and Wordilicious Investigators' day. Hmm, I am wondering is it because of my height that they have to pose like that? Isshh...

Cikgu... =P

I am getting myself ready to study for the Molecular Genetics test which is on next Tuesday. Sigh, yesterday I spent the whole afternoon just to read the part of DNA Replication from the Snustad and Simmons book. And now I still have 4 more parts to go.. Alamak.. time is running real short.. Eeww..

This morning I went for this gila-gila seminar on the Pelan Induk Pembangunan Pendidikan in the Edu fac auditorium.. Well, what shall I say? As a future teacher(ahem, how sure am I? But, nvm.), and since the lecturer 'invited' us to go.. so I went la. There's nothing special about the seminar. Speakers came up to talk about this Pelan Induk thingy, add a bit of lame jokes here and there which I can't really get their jokes. Maybe because I was there scratching my head - some the stuff they talked about weren't making much sense to me. And the jokes -- not funny at all. Isshh.. Well, whatever it is, in my humble opinion, this seminar is just another plain talk, another session of people giving all sorts of ideas, throwing out all sorts of thoughts, suggestions.. Yeah, those suggestions will be taken down and added into some kertas kerja and the kertas kerja will be submitted to MOE.. Hmm, I wonder what is the fate of that kertas kerja. Well, over the years.. we have learned some stuff about our country, our government, about how they do certain things.

One of the speaker pointed out the one thing that stuck on my mind ~ there's nothing new in the Pelan Induk Pembangunan Pendidikan. We are just repeating the things found in the previous reports -- talking about unity, sekolah kebangsaan, Bahasa Melayu... yada yada..

Well oh well..

I was thinking, how la to bring forth changes in the country? What are we doing for our country?

Last night during cell time, we shared about mission, evangelism etc etc. And I was again reminded the reason of why I put in science with education in the UPU thingy. Well, I believe that teachers are in a position of influence, to be a channel of blessings to the students in the school -- in the classes you teach, in the clubs and societies you are in charge of. A teacher's life is a living testimony to the kids in the classes. I am saying this because I myself experienced it.. My teachers have been a tremendous blessing to me -- one led my to Christ, with another 3 guiding me and leading me as I journeyed with God thru'out my Form 6 life and even till now.

ANd all the glory goes to God! It's Him who bring different peoples into my life, inspiring me to live my life in a manner worthy of Him.

Well, my God and this story of mine is what I am holding on to as I walk this path -- Teaching...

My 100th Post..

What am I going to do with my 100th post on jiaplace?

Hmmm..

I have decided to freak you guys out with my narcissism and feed this blog with more pictures of mine. Say I am crazy. I dun care la.. itz my blog what! *bleh*

You see, it can be quite boring to study genetics.. esp when there's a lot of names and procedures involved. All things seemed to be so mixed up that I have no choice but to set those heavy genetics books aside and clicked My Pictures... So what did I do?

Then I clicked.. Paint.. Haha... Then here comes the print screen and the cut-and-paste process..

Here comes the product of the hard work I have put in... Jeng Jeng Jeng Jeng...
The first one..



The second one...


And it became like this now..

Some random pictures of the day..

Here are some pictures of THE Camp.. Since this is my 100th post.. let's go back to the memory lane..







Alright.. gtg now.. super hungry liao =p I can't put up more pics coz the stupid connection is sooooo slow..... I shall continue on the other day..

It is well with my soul

When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say
It is well, it is well with my soul

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come
Let this best assurance control
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate
And he hat shed His own blood for my soul

It is well, with my soul
It is well, it is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
When all life's about to lose control
It is well, it is well with my soul

My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin not in part, but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord O my soul

And Lord, Haste the day when my faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back like a scroll
The trumpets shall resound, and the Lord shall descend
Praise the Lord, it is well with my soul!

Words by Horatio G. Spafford - Music by Philip P. Bliss

No matter what lies ahead..

It's well with my soul ...

I can say this because I know God is working in me n thru' me!

And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus...

Microbiology Auntie and Paris Hilton

Well, I am taking General Microbiology this semester.

I don't want to say this.. *O God, I'm sorry..* but I can hardly help myself.. I need to let it out before sth worse happens.. *tsk tsk tsk*

Alright..!!
That plum-specky-round eyes-round nose-thick lips-tudung-microbiology auntie s**ks man! What a grumpy pot she is..!! She is just one kind la.. She easily gets bengang and starts mumbling, grumbling, complaining to her books la, papers la, computer in the lecture hall la.. Oh, poor books, papers and computer, I know you guys suffer la.. so does everyone in the lecture hall. She is loud and the way she talks ar.. gosh.. I really felt like taking off my stinking shoe and throw it at her face.. Or go and puncture her car tyres -- puncture 2 of them is enough liao(eh, Jiahui, wake up la u!). Neh.. that fella just annoys me so much that I want to blog about her on my pinky blog. Listening to her is the most annoying thing I can ever have for the whole semester(and probably the whole year too!). Argh.. She always talks all kinds of nonsense la.. I don't bother to remember.. EEeeww.. but I am bother enough to blog about it.. argh, susahnya. I seriously don't like her.. Argh.. Auntie!

EEeew...

Anyway.. nvm, I shall persevere for another few more weeks.. then hopefully I wont see her again in other courses.

Let's switch the mood from complaining to gila-ing...

Hmm.. these pictures will match my layout..

Haha.. these pictures are taken when I was in Penang during the holidays. Hmm, it gives me one kind of feel -- It feels Paris Hiltonish.. EEeeee...

Brand new

A brand new layout for the brand new year.

Well, I can't really think of a new year resolution now.

I am like the girl in the picture.

What lies ahead in 2007? What is waiting for me in 2007? Dark clouds? Strong wind? Rough seas?

"Exit well.. and enter well.." This is the thing that really spoke to me..

"Leaving behind those baggages, whatever that weighs me down".. This is sth I want to do..

"Let go, and let God work".. It's my prayer.

Yellow colour represents hope. Is there hope?

Someone told me that it's ok to grieve. Letting go of something you once tightly held is always the toughest thing to do. And it's also the last thing you would want to do.

The Unwillingness to let go
Becomes something that chains me
Something that pulls me down
To a bottomless pit full of painful memories
A part of me may die
When I let you go

But I want to let you go

I am still learning to let go.. I hope and pray for a good start.. and also a good ending at the end of the year. There will be another 12 months of ups and downs. History may repeat its course. But that's what we call Life.

Whatever it is.. I know my Heavenly Father will walk me thru.
