Hail Bahkuteh!! haha

Wanted to update my blog yesterday night, but couldnt log in.
Hey 'fly', stop buzzing around my ear and asking me to update my blog or i'll swap you with a newspaper lolx
Anywayz, i'll be heading down to klang on friday after CF.
Its been a month plus or longer, since ive met with my dearest friend Trixie, and not to mention Ade, who has been constantly bugging me to come down to Klang.
Ade if your reading this, im glad that you've been bugging me lolx.
When i informed a few friends that i would be heading down to Klg this weekend, the first thing that they asked me was; 'Going to Klg to makan bahkuteh ah?'.
Haha..im not insane enough to travel for 40 mins, just to have bahkuteh. Hmm..i dont mind traveling all the way for seafood, but bahkuteh...Nah! I'd rather cook myself lolx
It might not taste as good, but for bahkuteh..its just not worth the petrol and time.
However, if im going down with a bunch of friends..then yeah, im willing hehe
So all ye KL and PJ inhabitants, if your craving for bahkuteh or seafood..give me a buzz..we shall feast till the sun sets lolx
Im serious...thus, dont make me wait too long..or i tarik harga haha..



My only pic with Trix, and ive none with Ade...shssh..its about time i took more pics...but first, i need a camera!!

Wait

This semester has been quite a relaxing one. Everyday im struggling to use my time fruitfully, but i end up facing my laptop for hours; browsing through my friendster and even blogs of people that i do not know.
Through the pictures and words posted in friendster and blogs; i realize that many are living their ultimate dreams; studying abroad, many have found their 'soulmates', some have been traveling all over the world, some having a blast serving in church; mission trips, recording an album and even musical plays.
On the contrary, here i am - the same place ive been for years; trying my best to figure out if God actually had plans for me, and wondering if He remembered me.
I envy the lives of many; while others are going for mission trips, im back home babysitting my sisters, and while others are busily recording an album, im here - in my closet, with songs ive written for God that will only remain on papers.
For years, ive always received the similar prophecies from speakers; WAIT.
Yup, wait. That God is still moulding and shaping me, and He will soon release me like an arrow.
However, God is still mending me into one; a strong one.
If im not mistaken, i received that prophecy when i was either 15 or 16 years old.
And its been 5 to 6 years, but im still here.
Maybe ive not been praying earnestly, ive not been choosing the right paths and making the right decisions.
Maybe ive made to many mistakes, and i cant find my way back.
Maybe im just not ready, and God knows that if He were to put me in the middle of the battle field, i would crumble and fall instead of standing firm.
There's too many maybe's...
But i believe in You God, and im in love with You, Jesus.
And i know, no one else could save my soul but You.
So if ive to wait for another decade long - i will, cause He knows the precise time for me.

Psalms 43:5

Why are you cast down, O my soul?

And why are you disquieted within me?

Hope in God;

For I shall yet praise Him,

The help of my countenance and My God.

Who am I?

I decided to blog after being continuously bugged by the fly for not doing so. Honestly, ive no idea on what to blog since nothing much has been happening.
So i logged into friendster, and i received tons of bulletin messages.
Due to overwhelming boredom, i randomly clicked on one of the messages; hoping that its content would lessen my boredom, and not to my surprise; the contents was as followed..

CHARACTERISTICS OF A SEPT BABY

Attractive and affectionate to oneself.
Strong mentality.
Loves attention.

Consoling, friendly and solves people's problems.
Brave and fearless.

Suave and generous.

Well i left a few out, was too lazy to type them all out lolx.
Truth be told, more than half of it is true.
Yes, im a loving and caring person. You had be very fortunate to have me as ur lady lolx.
The fly, you better not start laughing or i'll kick your honeybuns in uni *tee hee.
I'll tell you what im not instead, since most are more or less true.

Firstly, i dont find myself sexy or hot. Gosh, i think that only applies to the other sept babies lol.
And i cant ask my lover if he finds me sexy, cause i dont have one.
Yeah, im single. Thus if your good looking and smart, do leave me your contact numbers lolx.
Diplomatic? Maybe not with my parents lolx.

Anywayz, if you agree or disagree with the above, relating to me; do drop off your comments and your thoughts.
Sometimes the best way to get to know urself, is by asking ppl's opinion. We tend to be more observant about others, rather than ourselves - dont ya think?

Im gorgeous!

I look drop-dead gorgeous in this pic, dont ya think? lolx

Im not being perasan ok, and dont try denying it-cause i really, really, really do look good! Ha!

Yap is a genuis, when it comes to making ppl look good in pics.

What great talent he has, and how i envy him.

I hate to admit it, but i do look good in nature. Thus, it wasnt exactly Yap's magic fingers that made me look good.

I just have it in me! lolx

My wandering mind

I guess growing a year older isnt bad at all, especially when pearl and white gold jewelleries, money, including other nice and pretty things are given as presents on my very special day - to me! hehe.
A girl couldnt be happier!
The small party that my mum organized for me, was exceptionally wonderful!
Even though it was only aunts and uncles that were present, it was still great.
Not to mention, the mouth-watering food that mum and i prepared. Yeah, i helped a whole lot cause i couldnt stand watching my mum do everything!
And not forgetting dad!! Whom bbqued the chicken wings the whole night through!
A big THANK YOU to my MUM and DAD, including the rest of my SISTERS!!
Anywayz, enough of partying and food.

Im having a difficult time studying, in another words; focusing!!
My mind keeps wondering away.
Its getting extremely annoying.
Addition to that, the test is on friday!
Hence, im sure you cant even imagine the level of stress thats on me right now.
Phew! I need to get some fresh air, and maybe a vacation lolx
Oh well, whatever it is - i still got to get my act together.
God, help me!!

I am twenty - 1!

Yups, im a year older and definitely a 100 times more gorgeous!! lolx
Anywayz, just wanted to thank everyone for the b'day wishes and for the presents.
It means a whole lot to me =)
Even though its my 21 st b'day, it is a rather quiet one.
Mum wanted to surprise me with a b'day party tonite. However, its difficult to keep secrets within the family, especially from me! haha..
On the contrary, my aunt is celebrating her 60-something b'day tonite.
Her b'day is actually on the 20th, but no one celebrates their b'day on a wednesday.
Thus she grab hold of my special day to celebrate hers...*boo hoo..
Hehe Well, sharing is caring. She said we could celebrate together.
Hmm..i wonder how it would be. Umm.. with lots of senior citizens around. Haha..i'll just have to make the best out of it.
There'll be indian food..oooh..yummy! Hence i doubt it'll be that bad. Hehe
Anyhow, mum postponed my supposedly surprise b'day party to sunday evening.
Its a small one, with my family and a few family friends.
I actually didnt want one, cause my parents are financially tight, yet they wanted to throw one for me. Thus i am truly grateful.
Sorry to all my buddies, couldnt invite ya guys; it would surely cost a BOMB! hee
But dont be weary, your still entitled to present me a gift. Belated ones are also welcomed lolx.
Just joking!

I trust You, Lord.

I told a close friend that i felt that God had called me to celibacy, quite sometime ago.
She laughed politely and asked me if i was certain.
I wasnt, and i told her it felt that way because both of my relationships with the opposite gender ended badly and with much grief, and i was definite that no man would ever be able to overlook and accept the mark that ive inflected on myself due to the bad choices i'd made in the past.
With great compassion, she gently consoled me and assured me that there'll be a special one that God has placed aside for me. And as always, she encouraged me to continue on praying fervently and to appreciate the gift of single hood with her till the ordain time came for me, since my Father in heaven knows what is best for His little girl.

Trusting and waiting in God has been a constant struggle for me.
However, the passing of time and the fruitfulness of doing so has made it much easier.
There are times fears and doubts still crept in, yet i overcame it by God's grace and mercy.
Im glad that i can finally say, 'God, i trust You with my whole heart!'.
I know there will be uncountable times when i wouldnt be able to say it out loud, but im thankful and grateful that He would later prove me wrong, because of His undying faithfulness.

I learned this song when i was serving in sunday school, im not sure who wrote it but its an easy and meaningful song to remember.

Trust, trust in the Lord.
Lean not on your own understanding.
In all, all of your ways acknowldege Him.
And He'll make your path straight.

Pictures time!

Thats my ankle, and the beaded anklet was hand made by my younger sis, Charis. Its a tad too colourful, dont you think? hehe

And thats a bangle that i made for Pan Pan. Belated b'day gift lolx.

The bangle that i made for Wi Yee as her b'day gift. Its really simple but i adore it much!

Almost all the lovely gals in my class. Umm, except for Yap lolx. He's always hanging around with the ladies hehe

Ive been well so far. Just a lil dizzy once in awhile due to my cold. Im reaching a 100% recovery, and i'll let you know when i get there * tee hee

Much better

Good news ppl, good news! lolx
Im feeling much better. Yipee!
Went to the clinic yesterday, after church.
Couldnt stand suffering anymore, i desperately needed the antibiotics!
But no worries, im good now.
Though not 100%, yet a whole lot better than my previous state.
I tried studying this morning, but it only made my head spinned more.
Hence, i only managed to briefly read through 3 pages and i left as it is.
Maybe i'll just read 3 pages between interval breaks of 30 minutes.
Its pathetic, but i have to start somehow.
There's just too much to cover in just one miserable week!!
*tsk tsk.. susahnya
Well, no more running in the rain for me again
Hmm, i wonder where's my lil pink umbrella??

Ive got the blues..*ha chew!

People always come up to me and say, 'Hmm..cass, you're always ill/sick'.
In my opinion, that statement isnt accurate.
It should be 'Hmm..cass, you fall ill/sick easily'.

Yup i fell ill again, after having quite a fun time running in the rain from uni to a chinese restaurant that was just down the road.
I guess you can call me unlucky, since im the only person out of the 4 who got ill *tsk tsk
However, i dont believe in luck. I hate to admit it, yet it was stupidity that made me all 'sicky'.
Mum has been nagging furiosly at me, 'Cassie, you know you're very prone to catching the cold. Why do you have to be so smart and run in the rain?' and bla bla bla..lolx
Btw that is just 2 statements that she made, there's plenty more but im saving your ears. Trust me! haha
Ive got the flu; my nose is 70% blocked, same goes for my ears; and ive no idea why, my throat is coated with layers of phlegm; gross!, and ive a slight temperature, including pains and aches that comes as a bonus if you were to ever catch a cold. *phew!
Addition to that, ive difficulty talking because im pratically breathing through my mouth and my voice is getting a lil husky.
Im on the verge of being hospitalised!!!
Haha im only exaggerating but the recovery process is running on slow mode.
It sucks because im feeling really blue.
Oh Lord, Y'know i need to get well a.s.a.p.
Ive got a test just next week, and ive not touch a single page!!

*ahem..steak pls

Wohoo!! Im finally done reading the book! lolx
However, i wasnt pleased with the ending. I was hoping that the story would end with a 'BANG'!
Hence it was a great disappointment to me.
I guess i can conclude that Mr. Steinbeck is definitely an excellent writer, but he's terrible when it comes to ending a story lolx.
Yet i would still recommend all ye fellows to read it.
I thought i'd run out of reading materials, but i did some digging around in my mini book shelf and i came across an autobiography book that i'd borrowed from a friend ages ago, which its pages ive never once flipped.
Its concerning Christian Heroes, its actually a series.
The one im having is about Gladys Alyward. Its actually catered for young readers, but i'll just make do with what i have, before purchasing a few new ones.

Anywayz, had an exquisite dinner with a few friends last night; the fly, Bro T and JJ (btw, those are not their real names lolx).
We went to a restaurant called Jake's Charbroil Steaks, because majority opted for steak! hehe
However, ive never been a 'steaky' person. Thus, i had grilled salmon instead.
I did took exactly 2 bites of steak from 'the fly' and Bro T, and it was tender, succulent and super delicious! lolx but it was a lil too chewy hehe.
Well, we had a really good time feasting and laughing till the back of my neck started to hurt! Trust me, it was excruciating!
Too bad none of us brought cameras, or i would have posted up the pictures for all ye fellows to drool at lolx.
Bro T paid the bill; Thank you very much!
It caused a BOM! RM 289 ++ for the four of us haha.
I dont think im willing to excrete it out, or in a more common term; shit-la! haha
Im truly sorry, if you find me digusting lolx.

Where art thou, Anna Karenina?

Ive too much time in my hands, and im actually complaining about it. lolx. Pls dont shoot me! hehe. Im sure many are desperately and earnestly striving for more time, while im just tossing it out of the window, because ive too much of it lying around! hehe..

As ive mentioned in my previous post, ive not completed reading the book. Im close to the end, but still not as close as i want to be. Addition to that, im getting a lil confused because there's too many characters involved. At times i wonder, if there was a point the author was also confused, because it would definitely have been a funny scenario. lolx.

Anyhow, i can honestly say that im enjoying every moment of it. Each single page is written so diligently and beautifully, that i'd began to wonder if that was ever humanly possible. Mr. Steinbeck must have been a true genius, and i deeply envy him.

Ive finally found my love for reading again, and im anxiously waiting to get my hands on the next book. Ive been eyeing a book; 'Anna Karenina' for quite sometime. Its written by Leo Tolstoy. Ive planned to purchase it, but im putting my intention on hold, because i told my sister that i would prefer it as my b'day gift as to another piece of t-shirt.

She did not give me an answer, maybe because its an expensive book. However, there's no harm in hoping. If not, i'll just get it myself =)

Im HIGH!!

Its been awhile since i'd the chance to really sink deep into a real good book. I took the opportunity to complete a book (Tuesdays with Morrie - Mitch Albom) that ive put on hold for almost half a year, and also a few others due to the many free days that i have, because ive only 3 days of classes this semester.

As always, im full of reasons when it comes to not having ample time. I have to admit is purely laziness to why ive not been reading much lately. On the other hand, too attached to the electronic box that screens endless reruns of movies and tv-series.

At present, ive my nose stuck in between the pages of a book brilliantly written by John Steinbeck, titled 'East of Eden'. Its unbelievably descriptive! I could never imagine myself writing in such manner. Hmm..maybe its possible, but definitely nowhere soon.

And im truly amaze at the rate that im going; im almost halfway through in just a day, and did i mention? - its a rather thick one! Well, ive always been a fast reader. No doubt about that, but it still surprises me.

Reading just gives me the thrills! Yup i know, its weird! lolx

While ppl get high on drugs and alcohol, i get freakily high while reading!! hehe

By the way, here's another funny comic that i came across. Enjoy!
