We WOn We wON!!!!!

weeeeeeee~~~ back ache, hand ache, leg ache......everywhere aching...BUT we WON!!! okay..let's not jump to the conclusion right away. hehe There were 14 groups who joined the competition and 7 group were from Alfa!! hehe... conquered almost half of the competition. There were supposed to be contestants from PJCAD and KBU, that was what we heard though. However, none of them show up.

The competition was held at the beachfront of the Holiday Villa Resort in Cherating. Began at 8.45am, 14 groups, minimum of 2 person and maximum of 4 person in a group, began constructing their sand castle. After the first hour of building the foundation, the judges began their preliminary judgment on teamwork and costume. And after excruciating 3 hours under the bright hot sun, the competition ended with a blow of whistle. HOT HOT hOT!!!! but fun fun fun!!! With all the tools we brought, building a nice sculpture isn't that difficult. If only we are given more than 3 hours, I bet our sculpting would be more neat and detailed.

Anyway, lunch was then provided and result was revealed.
There were prizes for best teamwork among students group, and best teamwork among family group, and of course, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd placing. As I mentioned earlier, my group won!! But we won the best teamwork prize. It was out of expectation though, because we didn't plan to win, but of course we were thrill. Moreover, the prize is quite luxurious. A 3 days 2 nights stay in the Holiday Villa Resort in Langkawi, and 2 big hampers. :) Yeap. All for the 4 of us. Other than us, there's another team from Alfa who won. And they got 1st. The prize includes a 4 days 3 nights stay in Holiday Villa Resort in Langkawi, 2 hampers and RM3000.

oh yaa...by d way, the beach is really nice but super not fun. Cause got lotsa jelly fish....even on the beach bay. A few of my friends got stung by it. There's even snake on the beach....and also , there was this plane, flying sooooo low when it past by our head. It really scared us as we thought it was going to land on us. Thank god no one was standing, I was thinking if a tall guy raised up his hand, he might actually grab the bar and fly with the plane. Seriously dangerous beach.

okok...I'm always so long winded. Lets' see some photos..


The gang I joined in this trip

I really enjoyed their company. Fun people. We chat till 3 am. With only 2 hours of sleep before the competition. ahh Aint trip always meant to be like this? hehe... moreover, I managed to find a brother in Christ in this gang. We even did bible study during midnight. haha. It was indeed a refreshing session. Glad that there's at least one to share about Christianity in college.

First time indulging the true Malay dishes recommended by our buddies ^^

It's time to grab the bagpack and go go go!!!

In another 10 hours or so, the ALFAians shall head to Cherating with their buckets and tools.

We all know that beach wouldn't be beach without its sand and seawater. However, what do the sand and seawater have to do with the ALFAians? Allow me to reveal the answer...

ding ding ding ding....

They're there to join the sand sculpting competition which will be held on the 25th October. Weee~~~ In a group of 4, let's see what will they be able to build out of plain sand and seawater... Stay tuned....^^

should you fit in....or standout?


Greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world.



Define guilt.

Guilt makes you sleepless at night.
Guilt is that uneasy feeling that rings in you because there is this little bit of conscious in you which thinks that you should not have done it.
Guilt is your consciousness crying out loud for repentance.

If you feel guilty, thank God. For you still know the meaning of repentance.
If you have never felt guilty, seek God. For you do not realize what sin you have committed.
If you felt guilty, praise God. For He has washed away your sins.

Do wrong doings become right if everyone is doing it?
Will majority always win minority? Even if the majority is at wrong?
Is it worth for one to stay righteous if he is the only one left righteous and what seems righteous to him might be the opposite to all the others?

At times like these, what should one do?

WWJD?
the famous saying...What would Jesus do?

He will not fit in, He will stand out.

Stand In The Gap

Stand In the Gap

Verse 1:
The eyes of the Father run to and fro
He's searching the earth
He's looking for those
who make intercession
On behalf of their nation
Those who will rise up and pray

Chorus:
We'll stand in the gap on behalf of our land
We'll stand in the gap on behalf of our land
Down on our knees we'll take our stand
And there intercede for our land
We'll pray for the needs of our land

Verse 2:
The power of darkness released on our land
Will never prevail will never withstand
The deep intercession by a people of passion
Those who will rise up and pray




Inspiring.
There's hope;
Let's start praying.

Be careful of what you wish for....

Often I heard people say, be careful of what you wish for, it might just come true.

Ha..now I'm finally experiencing it.

Last two weeks, I have just posted a post asking for more assignments and more choir practice to keep me busy busy busy. weee~~~~ God heard me, and now...almost everyday is a due date for assignments. At the same time, choir practice is ending later and later...by the time I reach home, I don't even have the strength to bathe, moreover there are assignments to rush.

I shouldn't be complaining, for these are what I wished for....
I AM enjoying the choir practice, I AM enjoying my assignments too...

but now, I'm hoping for a 3rd wish......

can I have 36 hours a day?



Human are greedy...*shake head and sigh*
