Welcome to Triuchy

I have always wanted to come to India and finally, here I am.

Getting mock by a police at departure gate for being the only Chinese on the plane. And having a passenger beside us said she was surprised that there was a Chinese on the plane was quite scary to me.

I haven been to India so I do not really know what to expect. People kept saying about being careful with food, so I was really concerned about the food I eat. Sometimes it was like the auntie would ask me to drink or eat something and I would look to Kalai for approval and I feel bad for not immediately taking the things they give me.

Day started today by me having menses and I was already so tired. When I ask about how to dispose the pad, they told me to just flush it down. I was like wth!! Wouldn't it get stuck? But then, they don't have like any waste disposal. Everyone just throw everything everywhere, on the streets, out from the bus. Everywhere. 

After settling down in a village with insects all over and no sink toilet just Pail and bucket. I'm feeling better now, appreciating what I have in Singapore. Though I'm not used to it at first, but the people are so nice here that I'm loving it here. Most of the time I don't understand what they say but then it's ok, I just smile. The young people here can speak English though not the older ones.

I like it here also because there are animals everywhere though they are not always friendly. They are shy with strangers like me. But it's so happy to see so many cow and lambs and cats and dogs and chickens running everywhere.

Being the day with visiting the temple, but I wasn't allowed into the temple cause of my menses. So I just waited in the car.

We then met raj and family at the sari shop to get sari. So many ppl were there, both raj and kalai's family.  

After that, because I was so hungry, we went for lunch. Den we continued shopping getting silver items for marriage, my pad, slippers, my costume and some other misc things.

We also went to Kalai's granddad other house and den we went home since it was a Sunday and all shops were closed.

After washing up, we walked around the village. We went to her grandad farm, there's cow puppy goat dogs. So nice!!

Little things that makes me smile

My friend from Cambodia MSG me to tell me how is he. And I'm happy that everything is going well for him. =] and I sincerely hope that things will be going well for my little brother 

Back to work

Bkk was fun!

Party when I was there for both nights and the best thing was its a free trip!

First night was ok with only beer and liquor. Second was bad with red and white wine, beer and brandy. I puked out everything when we reach the room. 

Shop shop and shop. Nothing much, din take lots of pic. 

Back to work and I can't zzz. Saddd 

Excited!!

I'm so excited!!

Cus I'm going to Bangkok!! And it's free!! Thank you 老公 for bringing me!!

Hopefully there are lots of things to buy.

Life have been good. Just tot I will start recording my life so it will be memorable.

It's already 130!! I need to zzz soon cus flight is at 7 later and I need to be airport by 5. Wee!!

Life

Sometimes life just works in a special way. 

Going 2 years into my career, there are ups and downs. 

I'm glad I'm back up after falling so many times. Hohoho. Glad and grateful to the people around me who are always supporting me, always encouraging me, always there for me. Thank you. They will know who they are cus.. They are just so special to me. 

Fate

Do you believe in fate?

I do?

The sweetest thing happened today.

Xian Jun messaged me on whatsapp. How miracally that we connect again after losing touch for 6 years after poly days.

Omg, I was totally overwhelmed to hear from her, how she's been doing, what's she's doing, everything about her. The most disappointing thing is that she just returned from Singapore. If only she texted me earlier, I would be able to meet my big sister.

 

Sometimes, the universe planned things for us unexpectedly. After losing touch for 6 years, me not being active on msn, breaking all modes of contacts from her unknowingly.   The universe brought us back. I'm thankful. I'm really am. Luckily I have not changed my number, if not she won't be able to keep in touch with me. =] the ironic thing is, she still have my number after 6 years. 

It somehow makes me reflect on my life, how I lead my live the past 6 years. Have I been so busy that I did not even notice when she left? Did I even bother to stay in contact? Did I even try finding back my friendship?

These past 2 years, I have gone through quite a bit. I begin to see the real world more, to grow up, to become stronger. Some friends are not worth to keep but friends like Xian Jun are worth my time isn't it. =]

Hubby's on reservist for 2 weeks. I have the whole room to myself. It's great. No one to nag, no one to irritate me. It also allows me to sort out my thoughts better and not always depending on him. =]

Though he isn't around, I still have to help to do his stuffs. He had so many documents to bring back. Luckily I always have ming and Beng. They are always there to help me when I need them. =] thank you. 

I guess I'm lucky in life, with many nice ppl around me. Thank you universe for blessing me with all these. 

I guess it's time for bed. Good night. I want to go Si chuan dou HUA tml!! Hahahahah. =DD 

Mission aftermath

I'm back from cambodia for a week already but my heart is still there.

I'm finding it difficult to adapt in Singapore I wanna leave. =[

Twinny called today and while talking to her, I am remembered of them again. I so wanna go back there.

Wing Yan and Wilson wedding

Attended Wingyan and Wilson's wedding today. Wishing dem a blissful and happy marriage.

They are like my elder brother and sister. So I am very happy to see them get married!!!

When I reached and was registering, i met Wilson and went to congratulate him. Den Vincent came by with Pam, he ask Wilson, what song are you singing later? Cus we all got a concert ticket. So Wilson said no la, not singing, den me and Pam said together: Xiao zhu song!! Hahahah so damn funny. And Wilson just turned embarrassed. Haha.

But he still sang in the end. It was so sweet. And I'm happy for both of them.

Hope to hear their good news soon. =]

Day 3 mission trip

Started the day with devotion at 630 and set off at 7 to have breakfast. Work started around 830.

First time to a prison. I won't deny that I was abit afraid. Cus I don't know what to expect.

Was busy with the pharmacy. When we were about to leave, uncle Henry ask if I would like to look and he brought me to look at the other cells and where the people are cooking.

While doing that, some stayers came to talk to us. One of them said he is a Christian and pray to god everyday for us to come. And life inside was very bad, there was not enough place to sleep, there wasnt enough food. And they had to cook their own food.

Uncle Hendry ask how long he has been here and he said 10 years. And I don't know for what reason. I was tearing when he was talking to us.

He later told me he murdered someone when he was a gangster and regretted it already. He hopes to be released in 2 years time.

One other guy uncle Hendry was talking to said he used to be a teacher. He shot someone and was inside for 3 years. And will be released in 40 days time.

After afternoon session we went to the market to have a look. I asked the 2 interpreters to bring us along and they brought us to eat some nice food. Thank you. They are so sweet.

We then we for dinner.

Great work for today. I felt we could do more for today however due to rules. Better day tml. '

Mission trip day one

It's the start of my first mission trip. Though it hasn't really started, I'm already having a hard time trying to to blend in into this Christian group who already know each other. As a non Christian, I can really feel outcasted.

For a good cause, I arrived in Phnom Penh around 12 pm local time. Checked into the hotel and went for lunch.

Hotel and lunch is pleasant.

We then went to visit the central market and the weather was really hot and things are worse with Sharon not being around with me. I hang arnd with the aunties and I could really feel that I wasn't welcome. But... Hahahah. I din have a choice. The traffic is so bad and the ppl there look scary. If without them all these I really don't mind shopping alone.

Later met up with Sharon again to pack the medicines. I told them I'm here to help out with pharmacy and ppl were like aren't u a fc?? Any these weird ppl like the ask Sharon in front of me. Why can't u just ask straight to my face?? Bleah. Anyways bottom line, my dip and degree are still of use! Yea!

We went to the shopping mall after packing the meds, the malls pretty impressive. But the power went off in the middle of my shopping. Hahaha.

Ended the day with dinner. I'm already so dead tired. Din really sleep well yesterday. Good night.

Mission day 4

Time passed so fast that I am now now in the forth day of my trip. Soon the trip willl be over and I will be back at work. Hopefully I get some good leads from here. Though there are so obstacles around but I tink with my power of attraction attracting it, I will get it. =]

4th day is similar to the 3rd day. We did almost similar things as yesterday. Having much more fun saving people. And giving out medicines. Though this mission trip envied many of my friends, however I feel there is nothing to be proud of. I'm just doing what I love. I really love to help people. But only people who are really in need. Anyone even friends and families,

I'm having so much fun here with my new friends. I'm so gonna miss them, Daniel, sok pin, so yeong, marlin, rata, Aik and many more. However I loved the day at the village most. I love playing with the kids whom are so sweet. Maybe I have a fetish for kids, but... It's not that I don't like to mission in the correction centre. It's just that there are other groups that are also going there. People seems to be taking advantage of what we are providing for them. And I don't feel that I really did a lot. I mean yes, I can dispense meds, but there are so many people at one station, they don't really need me. I m just there, doing things that I want. They don't care.
Anyway the most important people are the doctors and the dentist. What I would love to do it something that I can contribute and be proud about. I probable have high expectations of myself.

Yup, the trip is good so far!!
Otw back to hotel!

Last day of mission

Ended the last day of mission.

Day started as usual with group devotion and breakfast after that.

We then went to the correction centre to continue our act of love, doctors and dentist seeing patients and me giving out meds. Day ended later today cus there were more patients. Day 1 and 2 were for the more privilege people. The last day today is for the less privilege people, so they are trying their best to see as many as they could.

After wrapping up, we had lunch, and uncle terry ask if I could use one word to describe the trip. What would it be? I tot for very long. And told them great cus I couldn't think of any. Den he ask why. I said cus it was very fun. Looking back i tot it was quite a silly ans. now that I give a deeper thought, if he asked me again, I would say eye opener. This trip broughte to places I wouldn't have gone on my own. To the villages, the see the little kids, to the correction centre to see the in mates.

To see their devotion in Christ. It's really amazing.

After lunch we went back to hotel to check out. And after lunch they had Easter service at the correction centre.

When I walk in they started singing. I don't know what they were singing but some how I teared. I don't know the reason. Is it sad or scared?

Grace brought us to look arnd the prison, they had a class room to teach bible studies, eng. they were hoping to get some computers cus they wanted to learn. She din say how. But...

We den went to look at the kitchen. There were so many flies arnd and they use sand dust to cook. How lucky are we??
There are pigs at the back of the kitchen too.

We then went to sit in for the service. It's pretty amazing/ sad that the people inside are hopeless and they only see the four walls everyday. And their only hope is to pray to god. Not all the people can come out of the cell cus of restrictions. However. You can see their hands from the windows wanting to get some hope. I mean. I don't really believe in Jesus. Cus he probably don't want me as a daughter. cus after miracle life, I love the way life is. And am happy with what I have. I declare, not pray, it works the same way doesn't it? That's why, when I see them kneeing and wanting to open their hearts to god madero tear.

Last year they came, there were only 30% Christian inside, now it's 70 %. Isn't it amazing.

And after the service we were sending off some pastor and interpreters work stayed near the church. And and and...

When uncle terry went to change money for the trip, the money changer have him 1000 USD as she also want to do her part to help. Soo... This 1000 USD was give my to pastor miak, so that he could get the computers for them. I can see pastor miaks eyes. He probably couldn't believe his eyes. If I were him. I would also be touched.

Right now. I have to get back my momentum for work so I won't be left behind. I want to go many many more trips with them helping the less privileged I'm probably still very sua ku. Wanting to go to very very ulu places. This kind of places probably don't exist?? Or I don't know about it.

On the way back to phnom pehn. It will be my last day here. Enjoying my last day so I can start to work hard from tml!!

------------------------------------------------
Back to Phnom Penh and had dinner. Was talking to sino about what she wanna do. She says, she wants to finish high school, den when she have money, she wanna set up a orphanage. I teared when I heard it. It was too sudden. I just tot about myself, I'm not like her with such big dreams, she just woke me up. Not to be always think about only myself but think about others. I hope to see them all again. Though I don't know if we have the chance.

Law of attraction

The law of attraction really works!!!!
If my energy at the right frequency, I will attract things of the same frequency too!!

I hope I will continue to attract the things I want though my energy is not high enough this few days. I hope everything will go smooth sailing for me!!

Act of love

An act of love.

An action to show my love for my loved ones.

I have been doing an act of love. Have you??

It's good to see people appreciating what I do for them. Thank you.

Today was my uncle, whom I have to help him with some claims and he wanted to treat me tau Huey at his shop as usual but we paid anyway.

I bought back some for my colleagues too.

And I have been helping this friend of mine who have been undergoing some tough time for the past few months and she bought me a gift today, cus some
Of her claims came in and she has some spare cash. So she just wanted to thank me with a gift. Thank you. I din do much. Just being there when she needed. That's most impt I tink.

Always listening and always understanding. =]]

Inspired

I just ended my 3 days course with passion in living. And I'm feeling damn great though I haven been sleeping much for the past 4 days. Since I had my AGM on 24th, and the course for the 3 days 9-12+am.

I had been living in heaven for the past 3 days, the course is truly amazing with amazing trainer with my newly found amazing course mates. They are simply awesome. Truly.

I realised my past life really suck through the course. I been fucking (anyway fuck stands friends you can keep) not putting my best in everything I do. And that really suck. I also realised my environment suck!!!! Truly!!! I wanna be around high energy people!!! Thats where I will attract people of the same frequency!! But I'm feeling damn tough to do it. Because there aren't really lots of high energy people around. Whether friends, colleagues, family. Like attracts like so I don't want to live that life anymore!!! I want to live in passion!!!!

I believe, with what I have learnt, I will be able to put in my best at work and in everything I do and create miracles!!

The happy girl.

Will you wonder what are friends? Who are your friends? What are friends for?

To me, friends don't have to meet often but the feeling of closeness will be there. Like Meng who is a big brother to me. Though we may only meet only once a year but u know he cares for me like a small sister. And when I told him I don't wanna have a wedding dinner, he told me if I were to invite him. He would give me $1000. Who else would be so nice??

Thank you for making my day! 😊

My lovely hubby

I haven achieved much in life.

I just have my parents, my lovely husband and some good friends.

I am just grateful to have him as my hubby, who is always there for me. And always gives me whatever I wanted within his means.

Thank u hubby!! Love u!!!

It's a happy and emotional day.

Yesterday we had a wild goose chase at garderns by the bay. It was so much fun though I did not get to play since I was part of the organizing team.

It's such a happy and tiring day cause most of them had lots of fun while others were complaining about the rain and everything. But u can't make happy can you??

I was like roaming around trying to find people to take pictures of. And 1 happen to see 2 groups at a station. They were suppose to form a line from point a to point b with their personal effects. So 1 group was like, it's raining. Lets do in the shade. While the other group is already lining their things on the wet floor. Even when I told them to do it in the shade. They were like " it's ok!! We very on!!" Won't u feel touched? They took out socks, shoes and everything to line up in the rain. They even lined on the wet floor to complete the line. Kudos to dem.

It's a happy day. Suddenly I realised I have already been here for 1 half years. Time flies doesn't it?

Cheers!

New Year

It's a new year with a new start with my engine not working as well yet.

To start the year, we had fun at aloha chalet, with Steven's family. And the kids are so noisy but I still love them. And winning mahjong isn't my forte but for the first time, I won $21. That's my lucky number!!! 😊 But steven lost $23. So it's nett -$2.
