Endau Rompin Trip

Just came back from my company trip in Endau Rompin, Pahang recently and was pretty tired but enjoyed it tremendously. Being quite near the swamp and forest areas, our mobile network service reception wasn't very good. We had to go to certain areas before we could see the bars in our mobile...the most three bars!! But the best place to get clear reception was at the beach, one of my favourite places:-)

My colleagues and I actually woke up at 5am the first day to catch the sunrise at the beach. We waited there about 1 hour before we could glimpse some light coming up. Man, what a sight!! The sun was such a brilliant ball of fire coming out from the horizon! Intense man...if you are late, you will miss it because it was only for about 5 minutes and it was daylight.

We had some telematches later on in the day including tug of war. Let me say this, playing tug of war on the sand is really tough cos there's not much ground for you to anchor your feet. Sadly, my group lost...mainly because the group were unevenly grouped. Some had more male members than the rest.

We also had futsal on the beach after the telematches...running on the sand was another mean feat. Nearly twisted my ankles too. Our team didn't win but it was a good match. The funniest incident was when the Physical Resource Team which consisted of all guys who were experienced futsal players, dressed in their football jerseys and shoes played against an inexperienced team. Because of time constraint, if they can't score a goal to see who wins, they take their luck by playing "one two som"....and the PRD boys lost the futsal match because of "one two som"!!

We had a more relaxing time after that with walks on the beach and hawaiian theme dinner at the poolside...which came with a watergun fight after that!! Some even took the big plastic bags, filled them up with water from the pool and drenched their victims!! We also had the opportunity to see the A&W bear which another group of tourists invited for their event.

When we finally had to say our farewells, the hotel had a farewell dance for us as we went back for our 6 hour drive in the coaches. Finding a toilet on the way back was one of the main concern but eventually we arrived safe and happy. Till the next trip next year....here is a picture I took with my favourite bear.

    Why so downcast O my soul?

    Recently I seem to be having a few upheavals in my personal relationships and also those around me. Don’t you get the feeling that sometimes months go by without something big happening and all of a sudden it all just comes pouring upon you? Is it me or it is absolutely no fault of mine. *blinks innocently* In the past few weeks, I seem to have upset one of the most patient and sweetest guy I know…though not intentionally. I’ve apologized and tried to make things better but he hasn’t been replying my messages nor picking up my calls. Zip. Nada. Nothing. I don’t know but lately I feel like whatever I say or do, people seems to be reacting negatively or things just blows up in my face. Then my brother did a very good job in making me feel like a failure by letting me know I am not making enough to help with the family finances. It’s bad enough that I am already frustrated with the fact that I do not have the resources to get a degree or get a place of my own… or even my own wheels. Now h...

    Abundant Life...Do you have it?

    "E06? What's that?" I had people asking me this question when I told them I am going for a conference at SIB KL. I actually not sure what the "E" stands for so I actually asked Ps. Lee Choo and she said it stands for 'exist'...which has a long history behind it. That's another story.... I nearly didn't go because the people who were supposed to go, all pulled out and I was the only one confirmed going. I had some trouble with finding transport as well, but I felt that God wanted me to be there and He provided me with all my transport needs...God is so good! "So how was e06?" This was the second most asked question to me when I came back from the conference. So to save time...and breath I decided to answer all these questions refering them to my blog. Smart eh?!! Hehe...I am excited to share with everyone what I've learned at the conference so I 'm going to share about each session. I will try, I said TRY to keep it sh...

    Absolutely Delirious

    The AYA Festival 2006 is on again! And this time we have Delirious coming to town. For those who are not familiar with this group, they are the ones who wrote these familiar songs which we sing during our worship like, “I can sing of Your love forever” or “Did you feel the mountains tremble?” One of my favourite is “The Happy Song” though I first heard it sung by Chris Tomlin. Nothing prepared me for the incredible performance that they put up. The sound system was world-class…I think they brought in their own mixers and stuff and the effects were really amazing. It was like watching a U2 or some international band in concert. At yet this band is incredibly humble and is only glad they can serve and minister God’s Word through their music. They utterly availed themselves to AYA to use them fully and make their time here in Malaysia as fruitful as possible. I know that fame can really get into some people’s head and cause them to glorify their music more than God. But this is no...
