Chinese form about 15% of Brunei's Population.
Bandar Seri Begawan
The whole journey takes about 5 hours. Finally, we reached Brunei Capital- Bandar Seri Begawan.
First thing to do was to hunt some food as we were so hungry. After that, we just walked around the city.
Hotel's restaurant.
We found out quite easy to communicate with the local people as people here can speak good english.
Jerudong Park Entrance
In the evening, we visited Jerudong Park which is the largest and most expensive amusement park in South East Asia.
Previously there is free admission for Jerudong Park. However, due to various factors, we have to pay B$ 15 for one time admission fees.
B$ 15 is included all the ride, hence it is consider quite cheap to an amusement park.

On the second day, we managed to get a "water taxi" to start out water village tour. Water Village is situated at the middle of Brunei River. About 10% of Brunei Population living in this village.
All the structures are on Brunei River

哦 神啊我要跟随你



感谢你所赐新生命
因你爱使我们聚集
若不因为你我怎能在这里
被赎的生命 交托于你
感谢你教导的真理
提醒我天天要舍已
让你在我生命中来管理
我心有神走过的痕迹
哦 神啊我要跟随你
赐我们全然向你的心
没有人事物能与你相比帮助我走得更坚定
哦 神啊 我要事奉你
用我被改变的生命
在每一日中彰显你神迹
使人看见 将荣耀给你

morning lifestyle..

Yes..after back to Penang for few days..eventually I manage to have my own time..I love Penang life especially in the morning..It was great and awesome as i drove to Batu Ferringhi and Gurney Drive for my "time out". 


Drew something on the sand and snap the picture..Haha..few people wondering and look atme with their strange eye?? or am i too sensitive?

Looking at the people jogging under the sunlight..Daddy playing with his child..mummy smiling at her family..children build their sand castle..What a childlike scenery..everything look so familiar in the picture book..closing my eye and listen to the wave..O..I love these so much..Life can be so simply and yet complicated..sound confused?huh?!

Aha..In one morning..I realise one of the reason I was put in Civil Engineering..I related things that around me with engineering concept! Sound like i'm a very rasional person..Cant believe it..i thought i'm a sensibility person..my geist gone after form 6 or after enter Uni?! By the way..i too enjoy to appreciate the nature with engineering concept..like slope stability..cohesiveness in sand..tension cracking..compaction..pore water pressure..all the geotechnic knowledge..but i miss out the beauty of the nature..Which created by our Heavenly Father..

As the mission trip date getting closer and closer..I'm a bit wander and afraid..but in the same time i'm grateful..what a self conflict girl..after read an article..I acknowledge that talk is cheap..if we grateful..shouldnt just say thank you but put our life as a living sacrifices..the act of thanksgiving..Hopefully I can put this in practice..

After the time out i went to Starbuck and have my drink..Sitting there alone and have my own time again..accessing internet..I like this type of life..so relax..Can i live like this after graduate? o no..cantimagine..Seeing graduated senior struggling with their job..yucks ! I do

super 'geng' God..


I'm the type of person that always misunderstanding God..This afternoon I received a call from the zhong qiu nite decoration leader..It recall me back to our last year CF Christmas Nite..At that period I was so frustrated for the decoration thing..I expect a christmas feeling decoration..But the outcome was not as i expected..it was a failure in my eye..and i so disappointed and told ar Lia that I will never in-charge decoration anymore..though i hv receive some positive comments about the decoration but it dint work as an encouragement to me..coz i thought they just want to comfort me and they dint know that it will be much more better if i plan well, if I can..etc..and I thought that God was not with me, that's why it turn up like this..izzit because my spiritual life so bad, dint pray earnestly or...I question Him for some period..After the call..I can sure that He was with me and He also did His part..He provided all the equipment that needed, wisdom to hang the snow flake, helpers..etc..Never thought that the way we hang the snow flake will impact someone that they ask us how to do it..How we get the equipment..as I found out these, I just want to say sorry and thank you..i paid so much attention on the outcome but never appreciate the process, the wisdom..that He had gave..Seriously,our God is the genius of genius..so 'geng' !.. King Solomon is the acknowledged wise man..God was the one who gave him wisdom..then God must be much more and more wiser than King Solomon..wow..cant imagine..

Lord, You are so cute !



Thank God, things that I dare not face, pretending..finally it over..After taking the first step, I found out that it is not as hard as I thought..But I hope no more this kind of thing happen again..haha..For this moment, I just want to thank God for this brother..and God is so cute, as we surrender everything to Him, He will take care of it..This morning as I look at the mirror..I saw something different..Because I laugh at the front of mirror by myself..Not because I'm crazy just because I found out that I have no angry with someone..Another brother in Christ that I thought I will never forgive..Though till today he dint say sorry about what has been happen..or maybe not even feel sorry about that..but amazingly there is no more anger in me..I dont know whether i really and truly forgive..but at least at this moment I decide to take the initiative to smile with him as we meet..As I found out that, I just wanna shout out in front of mirror that Lord, You are so cute! Without God's working, this matter is impossible..So good, can live without 'burden'..hee..

What will You do if You are in my place?



Recall back the question that grandpa asked in the first day of camp..If one day Jesus ask you : what do u think I am?..For this moment, Jesus is the one who knows everything, our past and also future. When making decision, I like to ask Jesus : What will You do if You are in my place?..will He say hold on,now is not the right time..or will He say just do it, the rest I will take care of it? Or will He say..so many posibilities?! But for sure, He will never say no need to face it, the problem will automatic be solved..Is the decision that I make same with Him if He is in my place? 


I thank God for this brother who use all his time, heart and strength to care about me. At once I was touched. However after sometime I found that I can't deceive myself. He deserve a better girl. How could I say tell this to this lovely brother without hurting him? I cannot be so selfish and continue give him false hope. Lord, teach me. 


At this point, I can only fully surrender to Him..May His will be done and not my will..


"For I know the plans I have for you",declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11.

Fathers..


Just finish watching a cantonese series drama-Fathers & Sons..It is a simple drama but i was so tourched by the love of the fathers towards their children. It remind me that in life there might have something that fathers have done for me secretly..but I never notice it..Things around me are too attractive and time past so fast ..and i just forget to stop for a moment just to say how much i appreciate and thank you..How great is our father's love..After camp i'm struggling to make a decision..I not sure whether i do it in the right time or right way..too much to consider..what will happen after i tell him..I just know if I continue to run away, there will be someone hurting..and I feel so bad about this..how to do it without hurting him and still remain as good friend? As I think about tomorrow, thing that I have to do..so uneasy..

Father,whatever consequences..may it in Your control..long to have a big hug and tell me that be courage, daughter..
