WTH

I met this friend of mine last year around this time I think? When I first saw her, she was sitting right opposite of me! (maybe because she thinks I'm awesome :p) Then so perasan you know, baru kenal less than 2 jam, already ask me to fetch her the next day to BE :p But I didn't reject her la because I'm just too kind.hahahahaa
and somehow we were in the same cell group..ah baru i terfikir! maybe she copy me! She always bully me :( and abuse me :( so sad.. maybe she is jealous, because i'm cuter than her..ahahaha but i choose to forgive her because I'm a good girl :)

Woon. Tien. Hui. I want to say Thank You!
For the encouragement, things that you've taught me and for sharing your life with me, whether it's directly or indirectly.
I would like to be invited to your wedding in the future :p

Cina balik kampung kluang :p

I believe God will use you more than just producing brochures and flyers for NGOs in the future ...because you have so much more to offer! :)

use your batman watch to tembak si iblis!

1. There are still many questions running in my mind even after SWEEP. When will I have answers to all these questions? Praying that God will reveal to me His truth and speak to me even as I go through this season of my life..

2. Going down to KL again on 17th of july to visit more places like Crisis Home, Refugees School, United Voice, Malaysian Association for the Blind and St.Mark. I'm excited :) Pray that my heart will grow to contain the community and even the nation.



3. I'm doing so much planning this month.
SWEEP planning, SEW planning

and CPR planning.Have to always remind
myself to do it with joy and a heart
wanting to serve God.


4. I can't find my yellow T-shirt, where is my one and only yellow t-shirt????????
So ridiculous, I just saw it before I left KL. now hilang.

MANA ANDA???? :(

5. I'm supporting Bersih because I don't like kotor!!


6. Tomorrow is my last day of work. HOOOOO------RAY!"Be patient with me..as I learn to be more like Christ! Thank you :)"

ajarlah aku servanthood


My grandma asked me to go out and buy some fried potatoes.
I was like... 'Why didn't tell me earlier..I just came back..always like that'

"Now ah?"
"Can or not?"
Aiyohh... Servanthood Carmen, servanthood!
"Can or not?"
:( idontwantbut "Ok-ayy."


Came back with the potatoes and saw her eating happily :)
hmm.. gembira nampak :)

Ever since I've decided to serve in PKA, there are 2 things that God has reminded me:
1. Servanthood starts at home
2. Washing each other's feet


My Sifu showed me that being a leader is about going down to other people's level and serve them.

"And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you." John 13:14-15

My Sifu came to serve.
Not to be served.


ps: actually I look up to van drivers in churches and those who are constantly serving behind the scene.A big thank you to all of you :)

i'm coming home

“But then I will win her back once again.
I will lead her into the desert
and speak tenderly to her there.

I will return her vineyards to her
and transform the Valley of Trouble into a gateway of hope.
She will give herself to me there,
as she did long ago when she was young,
when I freed her from her captivity in Egypt.
Hosea 2:14-15




So close, I believe
You're holding me now
In Your hands, I belong
You'll never let me go.

indeed working life is not easy

Queen has already started working since last wednesday. but i think tomorrow is my last day of work! HAHAHAHA why? because i'm too awesome for the job. hahaha. actually the company is only looking for somebody to help out for a short period. Since I'm flexible, so I accepted. Basically what we do is check overseas exam papers sent in by markers. Yup, I'm working at Magnificent Freedom :) My boss is very nice and she is a christian too. She never scold me... even when I ask her the same thing again and again (my forgetfulness is not helping me!) My colleagues are nice and helpful too! :) kena bully from moy wei sern only :( huhu but I feel stress because we need to concentrate on what we do..like make sure there is no mistake.. if not kesian the student kan. so yeala, this work doesn't require me to use my mouth :X itulah cabarannya.

Why should you care?

Modern Day Slavery?
Yes, it still happens today.




"With an earth like this, who needs hell?"

These days they attack me
even in my home
why then do they say:
'there's no place like home?'
I am robbed in my playground
raped in my school
bombed in cinemas
bus stations
flea markets
and shopping malls
I am the target
no matter who I am
is there a safe place for me to play?
please show me the way


I need refuge
yet no place on earth is safe
your government says
I can stay for awhile
yet I am harassed
manhandled
embarrassed
in your airports


I may work for your people
yet I can be whipped
if my boss does not have my papers
from a human being
with dignity
I am reduced to an animal
they call 'the undocumented'


how can you call this place earth
for me it's a big battle field
sometimes there are no guns
but too often I am killed
not by bullets
but ignorance
by hatred
discrimination
racism
inhumanity
pride


sometimes it depends on
which side you're on
take sides they say
as the ones without sides
are the ones hurt the most


so I took sides
and it seems there is no difference
except for the battle of egos


with an earth like this
who needs hell?
no one speaks anymore
all want to play safe
but to play safe for you
is to put me in danger
yet why should you care?
thinking of others is not compulsory
these days, such attitudes
are as scarce as the land we all seek
as elusive as the word 'peace'.
