Stand Firm on God's Truth, not Another's Opinion

by Rick Warren

“It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you.” (Proverbs 29:25a GN) It’s difficult to take a stand for God’s truth when you are overly concerned with what people think about you. When we worry about what other people think, we let them control us. We waste a lot of time and energy trying to figure out what other people want us to be. Then, we waste a lot of time and energy trying to become like that rather than just being what God made us to be. Worrying about what other people think is dangerous because we’re more likely to cave in to criticism. It means we don't always do the right thing; instead, we do the thing that everybody wants us to do. And what everybody wants to do is often the opposite of what God’s truth compels you to do. We’re also in danger of missing God's best. We're so worried about what other people want us to do that we can't stop to think about what God wants us to do. Fact #1: You cannot please everybody. Even God can't please everybody. One person prays for it to rain; another prays for it to be sunny. In the Super Bowl, both teams are praying that they will win. Who is God going to answer? God can't please everybody. Only a fool would try to do what even God can't do. You can't please everybody. Fact #2: It's not necessary to please everybody. There is a myth that says you must be loved and approved by everybody in order to be happy. That's just not true. You don't have to please everybody in order to be happy in life. Fact #3: Rejection will not ruin your life. It hurts, sure. It's not fun. It's uncomfortable. But rejection will not ruin your life unless you let it. Quit trying to please everybody! Remember that nobody can make you feel inferior unless you give him or her permission. The Apostle Paul says, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31 TEV) This means we can think like this: “God likes me, and I like me; if you don't like me, then you have a problem. If God likes me, who cares that everybody doesn't approve of everything I do?” Remember, nothing you ever do will make God love you less. Nothing you ever do will make God love you more. He loves you completely right now. That kind of confidence boost should give you the courage you need to take a stand.

Burger feast!

Hello~ 

Another awesome day I had. Friend crave for rum raisin ice cream since I don't know when. So I decided to take her to Quan's ice cream house. 

In life, spending time alone or with friends is very electrifying. Some people prefer to spend most of their time alone; others like to be with friends most of the time. For me, I enjoy spending most of my time with my friends. Spending time with friends is chance to share happiness or sadness with each other. The life of people is always both happy and sad. The more we share our happiness with our friends, the happier we are. It was awesome chatting and sharing with her. Nothing can be more relaxing than spending time with babe over an ice cream. :P 

RUM RAISIN! 

Sorry babe, my fav is still Choc! :P 

After awesome lunch session cum ice cream, headed to gym for some workout. I've been eating really a alot recently and realize that I need to be healthy as well. So I've been really hard working getting my lazy ass to gym as often as I can. I need to burn those caloriesss! Is kinda depressing knowing that I love to eat yet I can get fat easily. :( 

Anyway, have you heard of Burger Kaw Kaw? 

Friends told me they sell awesome huge and tasty burger.

I love burger a lot! Like seriously. Especially with juicy patties. YUM~ It was so tempting that me and some of my uni mates decided to head to Taman Puchong Utama to try it. 

TaDa~ My order! Cheese Beef Burger Single with 3 sausages for RM 10!  

Right after the burger feast, decided to head for some dessert. However, we ended up having "lok lok", wantan noodles, asam laksa and some desserts at the Night Hawker Street in Puchong. Today is really a makan day for us. Lucky I managed to spend an hour running and did few sets of abs exercising. Or else I'll be regretting right now. Phew~

Alright, I'm gonna stay up late today for the New Iphone updates! :D Hopefully Apple will come out with some awesome product :D 

till then..

Unsaid

Hello everyone,

I had a very productive day today. 

Recently, I'm so into badminton and I wish to play like a professional. Unfortunately, it will only be a dream. 

I met Lee Chong Wei today in his Arena! I cant believe that I didnt manage to take photo with him! What a waste. He was busy and I was shy! aiks! Anyway, is okay he's just another human. :P

Recently I'm busy with assignments. Assignment assignment assignment is all I have right now. BUT! Of course I am enjoying life too. Life is not just about studies.. We need to spice up our life with some interesting activities. :)

Some people pass through your life and you never think about them. And there are some you think about, and wonder "whatever happened to them"? Over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. Some of them stick with you through thick and thin. Some weave their way through your life and disappear forever. But once in a while someone comes along who earns a permanent place in heart. Growing up happens in a heartbeat.

Let's be honest, I can be a really stubborn girl. I find myself reflecting and remembering all that has happened over the past year. It is sort of bitter-sweet since so many dramatic and heartbreaking things have happened to me. But I have had many blessing as well. :) The most dangerous thing is having illusion. I am not going to make myself fall into that. :)
From today onwards, I will try not to post any more emo status on my twitter or facebook. :)
Let the word remain unsaid

Life.. goes on.. :)

Let me share some interesting article that I found on a website. :) 

till then..

I'm confused right now

Hello all,

Its been a long time since I last log in to my blogger. I really miss my blogging life like how I used to do it when I'm in secondary school. Blog almost every single day. So, I decided to come back to this wonderful place after few months of inactive on my blog. It's been a while since I really last updated my blog. I feel so incomplete for the past few months or so till now for not updating my blog and I rarely open it since I'm a big time procrastinator as always.

This semester will be my final semester and I'm done! Whats left will be the Final Year Project and I'm off to the real world. I cant wait but at the same time I know I'll miss uni life. Throughout my life in Uni, God blessed me with group of lovely friends. In my university life, every semester I meet different people and I mixed with different kind of people. God blessed me with awesome friends that I'm blessed to have them and I thank God for the blessing. Not just in partying, but in studies and assignments as well. They are great study companion as well as party starter. Due to all these fun and awesome experiences I had in my uni life, I'll definitely miss the freedom I have. O well. Nth goes our way all the time. No pain no gain. :)

There's always ups and downs in life. There are times that I almost give up because of hurtful feelings and I cannot take it anymore. Honestly, until now I don't have any idea why do I feel good torturing myself. I find pleasure in pain.

I guess I am an introvert person when it comes to expression deep feelings. Few people came to me and told me that I should stop keeping problems to myself. People ask whatsup with my life and I aint know how to share my feelings and my thoughts. All I did was smiling back to them and say all is good and I'll divert the attention to somewhere else. I try not to cause trouble/worries/etc to people around me. Some said I changed. Changed in a positive way. Yes I did. But in what sense I really do not know. I know the past taught me a lot.

For the past few weeks, I'm in my denial mode. I need to get myself out or else I'll go deeper and never get myself out. Keeping a distance. I know I am in trouble right now..

At times I wonder what the answer will be.. Or am I doing the right thing.

I wish to have it my way but I know is close to impossible simply because timing is not right and is it definitely not the right thing to do. O well, all I can do now is to surrendering it to God. Ever since the 2 years ago incident, I guess nothing can hurt me more than that.. I believe I am able to go through it. 

Music expresses that which cannot be put into words and that which cannot remain silent

Yeap, I'm confused. :( Left alone with my own thoughts.. and my heart is freaking me out.

Leehom - 依然愛你 (Still In Love With You)

The twinkling bright lights,

are traces of the passing years

You are still, the center of my world

One year after another,

time flies by in a blink of an eye

The only thing that remain unchanged,

is the fact that there will always be change

I'm no longer the same as before,

and neither are you

However, in my eyes, your smile

is still as beautiful as before

The days can only movie forwards,

in one direction, following time

Not sure how much longer (we'll have),

so I have to let you know

I'm still in love with you

there's no room for retreat

I still treasure

every minute and every moment of happiness

Your every breath,

every move,

and ever expression

Until the very end, (I) will

still love you

I'm still in love with you,

maybe it's fated and destined to be

Even after the passing years,

no one can every replace (you)

Those moments are the best I've had in my life

Those memories,

I still cannot forget

I'm still in love with you,

there's no room for retreat

I still treasure

every minute and every moment of happiness

Your every breath,

every move,

and every expression

Until the very end, (I) will still love you

Your every breath,

every move,

and every expression

Until the very end, (I) will still love you

Some said..

Some said when we learn how to let go of things, we are strong.

Some said when we learn how to let go of things, we are hiding from the fact.

Some said when we learn how to let go of things, we are weak to face the consequences.

No matter how are we try, the little things that happen around us will trigger our emotions our memories. I experience that personally and it sux. I am very emotional kind of person. So it make it worse for me. Yes! WORSE! sad to say.. I wish that my brain is like a computer where we can format or delete things that we wouldn't want to keep any more. Hoping that we can begin new chapter in life. The past is the past. Nothing can be done. Is true that memories hold and remain forever. Suck but thats life. 

This semester is my second last semester. Which means in 8 months time I'll be out in the working world. I cannot imagine myself in the working world. I asked myself, what will I be? Who will I be? Am I going to turn into someone that chase after wealth and power and forget that life is not just about that? It freaks me out knowing the numbers of commitment that is in line waiting for me to commit. I am feeling the burden right now. Being the eldest in the family is not the best thing in life. Yes, you may get respect from the younger ones and to boss them around like a boss.. But, when you're older things changes. The responsibilities are more. I am feeling it right now. I do not know what I should do to become a better a better woman. I always tell myself.. Do not fear mistakes. You will know failure. Continue to reach out. But regrets? BLAH! 

If only my life has a trailer that shows me what's next in my life so

 I will not make mistakes that I'll regret for life. 

till then.. 

Happiness has nothing to do with pleasure

You feel pleasure when you want something and you get it. Or when you don't want something and you remove it. Pleasure is always relative. Happiness is absolute. Happiness is the understanding and acceptance of life as it is in this very moment as completely perfect, because every creation of God is perfect. The degree to which you do not accept life in all of the Divine forms is the degree to which you suffer.
