five years to go

well, the hype for the upcoming election is all around! more so now as it’s only two weeks away.

i was 20 when the last election took place. i remembered wishing i was of age to vote. not that i really know much of the politics that went around but still i somehow felt that malaysian pride. well, if you know what i mean.

so when election buzz starting heating up couple of months back, i told myself that i would–no matter what–register myself to vote. and i did that. what i didn’t realise was i had to register myself in year 2007.

today i went and check my electoral roll online. it showed: record not found. pity i registered myself two weeks too late. yes, i procrastinated.

now, i have to wait for another five years to pass.

mat rempit-ing

i felt like a tape recorder at church today — except that the more times i had to repeat my story, the better i got at summarising it. now if only i can bring back this new found skill of mine to my high-school days. my english teacher would be so proud of me because i always scored the lowest marks in summary.

i believe my church mates had fun pushing me around in my what-they-call-it ‘upgraded ferrari’. after a while i found it fun too. i mean, really, how can i not have fun when i have the silliest of friends (and i mean it in a good way) accompanying me around. we raced around church (and a few warn me against illegal racing), some creatively added their own sugar-and-spice to my story, one friend ‘adviced’ me to not chase after guys (cos so happened i fell on valentine’s day marr) and there were those who were just nice to me larr…

ohh.. not forgetting, a friend called me to remind me of the ’saman(s)’ that ps kenneth used to ‘threaten’ me with for ‘illegal parking’ inside church premise.. haihz…

i’m now the mat rempit of acts church for the next six weeks or so.

thankful thoughts

it turns out that i didn’t sprain my foot but i actually fractured it. doctor told me to be thankful that the bone did not go out of place after i described to him how i fell. well, i guess there’s always something to be thankful for in everything, good or bad.

the pain in my feet is bearable now. at least i can stand up even if it just for a few seconds.  another thing to be thankful for.

the saying goes ‘a friend in need is a friend indeed’. you know who you are, thank you for putting yourself through the hassle to bring me to places, cheering me up and even ’scolding’ me. you girls and guys are special, very special to me. i pray that i’ll be a true friend to you, just as you are to me.

feeling bummed

i have so many things to look forward to this weekend, so many things to do.

what better timing to have a fall and twist my left foot on top of that. and i don’t have a choice but to move around on a wheelchair.

hopefully i’ll recover in time for l.i.f.e party and my high-school reunion dinner which i was looking forward to all week. sigh…

real bummer.

spectator from afar

i am the spectator from afar
hidden beneath my convincing lies
yearning to be free from my bitterness
longing to be ever so truthful to thee
wishing dearly for simplicity

i am the spectator from afar
this is where i’m meant to be
this is where i choose to be
this is where i will be
until time shows kindness to me
until You, beloved Father
reveal Thy great plan to me

grant my hearts desire
according to Thy loving will
in You, abba Father
i shed my heart’s tears

see my heart bleed
hear my heart plead
the void is too deep
too cold and too lonely

i long not to be
the spectator from afar anymore

switchfoot and more

switchfoot was awesome
no pictures, no videos and no autograph; just memories
i was interviewed by a friend, it felt weird
maybe i’ll be on tv?
hopefully not

i wished our conversation lasted longer
then again i haven’t much to tell you
hopefully our next time will be better

have you changed?
or have i changed?
or has time made it more difficult to keep up?

i’m still patiently praying for answers
but for now i’m giving my mind a break
help me walk under the Light, not under the sun
