Here I'm back again! :) I just came back from a place called Kajang where it is famous for its Satay!!! So after a boring day, we, Edi, Cristine, Ray and I went all the way from Cheras to Kajang! It was indeed a very exciting trip. It was our first time to Kajang and we took the LRT to go all the way there. It took us around 30mins to reach our destination.
As we reached there we were sort of lost in Kajang because it was our very first time. We had to go to meet Ray's doctor first before we go and tackle the famous satay! We walked and walked until we couldn't find the way and we kept on asking people to show us the way. When we reached to meet the doctor, it was a Chinese doctor specialized in the Chinese Medicine. So I could see all the traditional herbal Chinese medicine.
After Ray's therapy, we were getting hungry and we had to walk quite a long mile to reach the famous satay Kajang. Finally we reached there and we order satay of different meats: Chicken, Fish, Beef, Deer, Lamb and Rabbit. I must say that the lamb is the best of all! :) The deer was not bad as well.
For more pictures, I'll have to ask Ray! :)
Meanwhile enjoy this video of our Kajang Trip! :)

Modeling
Recently I don't know why this has been crossing my mind. It's about being a Model, someone who would pose and photographs take my pictures. Well I feel of doing that. I've done that before when I went to photo shoot for the brochure of UCSI but they didn't pay cash for that. I just got a free lunch.
I just feel of going for modeling and just posing. At first I didn't like to take pictures of myself but actually it's cool when you just pose and someone takes your pictures and it turns out to be good. Well I just feel of doing that. It's not to become popular, this one I don't really care, but I just want to have some pocket money. Since some people says that I'm handsome *ahem*, I think it'll be a good experience for me to be a model.
The problem is, I don't know who should I see for that and how do I apply for it. I'm just looking for a part time job that is flexible and that will not clash with my studies and church. Maybe this job would be suitable for me. Well I've no idea. My dear friends, those reading this post, what do you think of it? Any advice?

FAKE it until you MAKE it!
Recently I've noticed a lot of things happening in my life. Few weeks ago, I've realized that I was backslided without realizing it. Since Emerge Conference, I was so refreshed and transformed but there was a time that I didn't know that I was backsliding from God. I was getting myself far away from God, step by step.
I only got to notice that when I went to cell group in Sunway, which is very seldom I go there. There was Leo who was sharing the warmth time. He was sharing that since very small, he was praising God in everything he does. He praise God for this studies, for his food that we get everyday, praise God for his parents, etc. He also said that throughout all the times he praised God and give Him all the glory, that's the time he became a top student in his entire primary school. It's only until he started to join secondary school and his results started to drop. Why is that? This is because he was getting too comfortable all the time that God has blessed him. So afterwards he encouraged us to share a very good praise report and not to be too comfortable with our blessings, we should always praise God in all circumstances.
I was really touched by his sharing and I've realized that my walk with God hasn't been very good. I've been far away from him. I haven't been praying nor reading my Bible. I've only been doing so in church only. But to pray and to read the Bible is not only in church, but also to any other places like our house, our room, in the train, in the bus, or even in the toilet and so on. I felt that prayer is very important in every Christian living. It's the foundation of our daily living for God. So when I came back to God, I prayed and praised God in every single thing I do and in all things that God has blessed me. But little did I know that it was not an easy thing to do. I started to pray and praise God again, I realized that I was not normal either. I was not feeling myself and being filled. I felt like my prayers were worthless. Some of us would say, "Oh God won't forgive you already!" But no, this is how it is actually.
My life is like a mountain, where I climbed 50% of it, then I fell at the foot of the mountain. I fell without realizing that it until my head hit the floor. When I hit the floor, I then knew that I fell. So it's the same as my own life. I fell off the mountain so low that I didn't realize it. To be able to feel strong and faith-filled again, it's to climb the mountain again. That's the reason also that I cannot feel God's presence so strong as it used to be before, but when you get closer to God, that's where He will draw closer to us as well. Then I remember what Pastor said in his preaching, when you cannot pray, don't depend and listen to your emotion, don't wait until you feel it then you pray, no but FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT!!! I pressed on and pray everyday without fault and praising God all the time. Indeed God is a faithful God and He blessed my life and I've been strong, spirit-filled and faith-filled.
Friends, I would like to encourage you, just as I've been backslided for quite some time, God knows your heart and He is ready to forgive you and renew your life again. If sometimes we don't feel like praying, stop here! Don't depends on your feeling, but Fake it until you Make it! Just pray and praise God in everything you do. He said that he will bless you, and will bless you indeed! C'mon get this blessing from Him!

Kristy's birthday
Yesterday there was the Parachute Band from New Zealand in our church leading us all into worship. It was a great time spending in the presence of God! As usual after service, we just go together as a cell group for a fellowship dinner and Kristy, our beloved cell leader, would accompany us as always. So that night we were prepared something special for her as the following day, which is today, is her birthday!
So here is how the plan went on. All the cell groups under Kristy's subzone, have prepared her a surprise after dinner. So while the others were busy preparing after church, my cell group had to act normal and drag the dinner till late. Since I'm in charge of the transportation for my cell members, I purposely asked the van driver to fetch us a bit late and then I told Kristy that the van will come a bit late.
As the van came to fetch us, every time Kristy will say goodbye to us and lead us to the van. So as we were all in the van, I've asked the driver to fetch some of us at Kristy's place. When we've reached her place, nobody was there yet. So there was Adyss, Cristine, Ray and myself playing the see saw at the children playground. As soon as the others came, it was very exciting. We discussed of what pranks we were going to do on Kristy. All the pranks were really bad and scary. 1st we plan something that we never did before. 3 of us disguise themselves as bandit and wearing masks with knife; not any type of knife, but sharp knife. So the plan is the 3 of them attack Kristy as she comes in her house. Then as she enters in, we would spray snow on her. Indeed the plan was successful. At first we had some incident, such as there was one neighbor as he/she went to his/her house, saw the "bandits" and ran away! Poor our "bandits", they thought that the person was about to call for the security. Praise God that it went exactly as we planned. Kristy came in and her face turned pale and she was trembling in fear but little did she know that we were all inside and were ready to make her the Big Surprise.
Kristy getting all the snow spray from us as she enters her house!!!
That was the first part of our pranks on her. The second part is where we all threw her in the swimming pool. I think it's a tradition every year, we have to throw her in the swimming pool! It was fun indeed. We not only threw her in the swimming pool, we also threw Chintia and Leo as well. Poor Chintia, she was defending herself saying, "let me go, I will jump myself in the swimming, please don't throw me inside!" But in the end, we threw her also! :)
1st part we threw Chintia in the swimming pool
There was also the cake. The cake is from Secret Recipe. It was indeed a very nice and sweet chocolate creamy cake! On this cake, there were 2 candles to make her feel younger, 20 years old but actually she's older than that. Hilda also got the idea of writing "Happy Birthday Mommy!" on the cake as Kristy is our role model in our cell group and she's indeed a very good leader. So we called her Mommy in the end! :)
Happy Birthday Mommy!! ^-^

Break Free
Break Free has become a very common word for me. I hear it every time; in church, at home, on campus and on the net. The first time I came across this term, it was the song Breaking Free in High School Musical. I like the song very much because it's a duo song. I've always love duo songs because there's a feeling that they both share. It's the feeling of the song!
The other time I heard of this term was in church during prayer meeting. It was a new song for us by Hillsong called Break Free. "So won't you break free, won't you break free, his love!", that's how it sounded like. The first time I heard it in church, it was a cool and exciting song where everyone learned it so fast. Prayer meeting was on a Tuesday night and we had a special weekend service with Pst Joakim Lundqvist from Sweeden. Pst Joakim is a youth pastor and he motivates every youths to make a difference in their society and especially in their colleges. That weekend there was this song again saying, "So won't you break free, won't you break free!" It was quite fun because this time while we were singing this song, on the LCD projector we can view sequences of anime such as Naruto and Bleach. Haha!!! It was so good!! From that time I started to like amine! hehe...
Today while I was listening to the song Break Free again, this term started to resound in my head. "Break Free, Break Free!" *echo* Then I started to ask myself, what does Break Free mean? So I went to the Oxford Online Dictionary. This is what it means:
Friends, this song is about the love of God. There's no escape in it and no mistake in it. It is true across the world, His love is known. My question is, Won't you break free and get up and dance for His love that never ends?

"Break free is to escape from confinement or control"In other words to break free is to escape from something that is hindering you, something that is controlling you. From that time, this word has become a powerful word to me! A lot of times there are things that is hindering us from growing and to carry on with life; hatred, broken heart, depressed, anger, procrastination, laziness, etc...
Friends, this song is about the love of God. There's no escape in it and no mistake in it. It is true across the world, His love is known. My question is, Won't you break free and get up and dance for His love that never ends?
Let's break free and make a difference in the society today!

4hrs class today!!!!!!!
Today I don't know why I had to wake up so early! Well usually on Fridays I have 8AM class. As usual, I'm not a morning person, so I won't wake up early so easily. This morning I forced myself and said to myself, "Today is a new day, Robin you must wake up! You cannot miss another class again! Be mature and responsible!" So then I woke up, made my morning prayer and rushed to the bathroom. I was thinking of making a Milo before I leave home but it was already late. Anyway I rushed to college and bought a Hot Milo on my way because I know that it's a very freezing class! Normally if I enter the Auditorium for 2hrs, I'm already freezing. I didn't want to bring my jacket either.
So I reached class 8:10AM, yeah a bit late, but I wasn't late because the lecturer also came in. So she started to talk some issues about our movie that we were going to watch and talk some craps also until she can get some people to install the movie for her. Well it took 1hr + for her to get the whole thing ready. I just imagine that I could still be under my blanket and she hasn't started the class yet. At about 9:30AM we finally started the movie. Oh yeah by the way, this subject is called Film & Arts Appreciation. You watch a movie, then u comment, sometimes quiz and assignment is given out according to the movie that we've watched.
In the end we watched the movie Munich, quite an interesting movie, but some parts a bit boring. Maybe I was feeling sleepy, that's why. Our class is supposed to end at 10AM but since we started the movie late, we continued to watch until some students left the class at around 10:40AM. Then the lecturer asked us, if we need to go, we may go but we will be tested on this. Some students couldn't stay any longer and left. Most of us stayed because we were scared that if we don't watch this movie till the end, we are not gonna pass this subject which is very difficult to pass. So we continued to watch it until 12PM. Fortunately she didn't continue to pass up her comments on what do we think about the movie as she used to do. For once, she shut up her mouth. Wow! We all left complaining among ourselves and exhausted also. Well that's how this morning class went on....

A place of AGREEMENT is a place of POWER!!!
ChurchWide Prayer MeetingI just came back from our ChurchWide Prayer Meeting. Prayer Meeting was great!!! I always love to go for prayer meeting. Every prayer meeting is getting better and better! I remember before in my home church, at St Paul's Church, when talk about prayer meeting, there's only a few people in the church who will come and pray.
Since I've joined City Harvest Church(CHC), my perspective about prayer has changed a lot. Before that I didn't really consider prayer as an important thing in life although I was a cell intern back home. Yeah I used to pray but since I'm in that CHC, my prayer life has completely changed. Now I realize that prayer is such an important thing in every Christians' life. Without prayer, a Christian cannot be called a Christian. It's like a body without life and a life without breathe! My pastor Kevin, Keith my cell supervisor, and Kristy my cell leader have taught me a lot about prayer and how to press on in prayer and indeed I've grown maturely in the Lord.
Now I feel like going back to my hometown and share to my church how I have grown wisely and maturely in the Lord and I just want to motivate the youths to learn how to pray strong. Back home when I attended prayer meeting, there were only a few people and it was a boring thing for me. I never understood how come the people pray for our church and never get tired. Now I understood why a lot of people didn't want to join the intercession group although we announce it every week. I remember the first time I went for a prayer meeting in my church, I felt asleep.
I praise God for putting me in CHC as I learned how prayer can change my life, life of people and change a nation. Prayer moves the hand of God. Every time when I don't feel like praying, I've learned one thing, "FAKE IT UNTIL YOU MAKE IT!" Prayer doesn't depend on feeling but depends on the choice you make. So I just fake it, until I make it! When we all gathered for our monthly Churchwide Prayer Meeting, it always brings down the presence of God so strong! A place of Agreement is a place of Power!!! That's what Prayer Meeting is all about! :)

Some updates after 4months!!!
Finally I'm back on my blog again after so many happening things!!! It has been... hmm... let me count first... hmm.... Aug, Sept, Oct, Nov.... yeah almost 4months that i haven't updated my blog!!! wow!!! *everybody say wow*
Well these are the happening things...................
-EMERGE KL 07-
EMERGE KL 07 is the youth conference that has really impacted my life and it's the greatest conference I've ever attended!!! 3 nights that blew my mind away with lots of fun! Ps Kong Hee from City Harvest Church Singapore came for this conference together with his worship team with super praise and worship!!!
There were a lot of famous artistes and business people. These famous people shared of how God has changed their lives from being poor on earth but rich in Christ and how they become famous and prosperous. Most of them were from Taiwan and Singapore. Ps Kong preached on how to make an impact in our college and shared about the marketplace. It was really interesting and gave me creativity to do more for the Kingdom of God.
-Orientation-
Just after the Emerge Conference, I was involved in the Uni's orientation. Being a student council member, I had to help new students to find their way to the hall for all their briefings. First day was a very tiring day! The day before I was so excited for orientation that I couldn't sleep and I have to meet up in college at 7:30am! Just imagine, I was there at 7:30am and guess what time i came back home? I came back at the same time, but PM!!! I was really tired as I returned home. I immediately took my shower then i went to sleep directly without having my dinner and I woke up the another day of orientation at 8am! Wow!!! The 2nd day was not bad, not really tiring. It was quite fun to meet new people, especially international students. I met a lot from Indonesia. I love indonesian people. They are fun and crazy!
-1 year in Malaysia-
I've finally spent one year in Malaysia. It's not bad after all. I've adapted quite well to this country with the culture and food. I have a lot of friends from different countries and I have quite a good reputation in school.
On this special occasion, my 1st anniversary of being in Malaysia, I've treated my cell group members for dinner. I was so blessed to bless them. Then I shared a short testimony of how God blessed my life by being in City Harvest Church and being part of this cell group. Nobody knew that I was about to treat them! hehe... No cake this time.
-Genting Highlands-
Genting Highlands is a place on highlands, very cold but no snow, same like Mauritius' winter! :) It's a place where we can have fun in the theme park! I went with a group of friends from Christian Fellowship (CF) which are Jonathan, Su Ann, Leslie, Leonard, Joanna, Michelle and Christy.
I spent one night there and I can tell you that it was really cold!!! I think Mauritius is even colder than this because it's been a long time that I haven't felt so good with fresh air!!! I think when I miss home, I shall go there!!! hehe... I went on roller coastersssss.... yeah a lot of roller coasters there, all different and all a lot of fun! The more u go in, it's no more fun! So that's why we change from roller coasters to roller coasters! I had a chance to do Go KART also! Haha!!! This was fun!!! I finally know how to drive!!! No that difficult after all! hehe...
-International Welcome Party
As being the Vice-President of Student Council for International Students *ahem*, I was the chairperson to make an international welcoming party for the international students of this intake. Indeed, it was very challenging for me. I spent 2 stressful weeks in making this welcoming party a success. My target was 300 students for this party as I organized the whole event but I had a breakthrough attendance of more than 300 students for this party. I was surprised! I had to make a lot of phone calls, do the follow up, create my own team for this party, etc.. Imagine I was like Kofi Annan, the former secretary of the United Nations, meeting students from different international assiociation of the college. Wow!!! At least everyone knew how to speak English! So I met up with them and asked them to promote this event for their country mates. At first, they came late as expected so we were not ready yet. But the good thing is that everyone had fun in the end!
-Formal Dress Code-
Last 2 weeks, I had some events whereby I had to wear a formal dress, which i don't usually wear. So I had to bring along with my fashion consultant and classmate Joanna with me to Mid Valley and shop for formal clothes. I had to wear for a launching thing on the net whereby the deputy minister of higher education came for this event. I was asked to be the usher. It's the 2nd time I met the DM of Higher Education in person. The first time was when I was invited to the Minister's house. Haha!! Not bad this Robin! hahaha!!! *ahem* Another day that I had to wear formal was when the Minister of Education invited me to an open house, in a big hall in putrajaya (where all the offices of the ministers are). So 2nd time in a week I wore formal dress and I met and chitchat with the Minister. *ahem* 3rd time, I was asked by the college to be a Model *ahem* for the school brochure. So I had to pose for session of photo shoots!!! I had to wear formal again as I had to act as if I was a businessman. I got to put make up for the first time also! Haha!! I became so handsome that I couldn't recognize myself! Hahaha!!! Just imagine as I say that! Finally last and not least, I had to wear formal again for the Prom Night of A Levels whereby I was the MC. I had never wore formal like that for my whole life! In a week, it's like 5 times!!! Not bad, not bad at all!!! hihi ^^
Me and Lim Kian (SALSA President) and Patricia (MC partner) and I
Well that's the end of all my lately updates for the past 4months. If I'm not mistaken, there were more, but I'm lazy to think about it and type it out. hehe... Please comment on the Cbox on ur right hand side! :) GOD BLESS U ALL!!!
Well these are the happening things...................

Just imagine, I was there at 7:30am and guess what time i came back home? I came back at the same time, but PM!!! I was really tired as I returned home. I immediately took my shower then i went to sleep directly without having my dinner and I woke up the another day of orientation at 8am! Wow!!! The 2nd day was not bad, not really tiring. It was quite fun to meet new people, especially international students. I met a lot from Indonesia. I love indonesian people. They are fun and crazy!
-1 year in Malaysia-
I've finally spent one year in Malaysia. It's not bad after all. I've adapted quite well to this country with the culture and food. I have a lot of friends from different countries and I have quite a good reputation in school.
On this special occasion, my 1st anniversary of being in Malaysia, I've treated my cell group members for dinner. I was so blessed to bless them. Then I shared a short testimony of how God blessed my life by being in City Harvest Church and being part of this cell group. Nobody knew that I was about to treat them! hehe... No cake this time.
-Genting Highlands-
Genting Highlands is a place on highlands, very cold but no snow, same like Mauritius' winter! :) It's a place where we can have fun in the theme park! I went with a group of friends from Christian Fellowship (CF) which are Jonathan, Su Ann, Leslie, Leonard, Joanna, Michelle and Christy.
I spent one night there and I can tell you that it was really cold!!! I think Mauritius is even colder than this because it's been a long time that I haven't felt so good with fresh air!!! I think when I miss home, I shall go there!!! hehe... I went on roller coastersssss.... yeah a lot of roller coasters there, all different and all a lot of fun! The more u go in, it's no more fun! So that's why we change from roller coasters to roller coasters! I had a chance to do Go KART also! Haha!!! This was fun!!! I finally know how to drive!!! No that difficult after all! hehe...
-International Welcome Party
As being the Vice-President of Student Council for International Students *ahem*, I was the chairperson to make an international welcoming party for the international students of this intake. Indeed, it was very challenging for me. I spent 2 stressful weeks in making this welcoming party a success. My target was 300 students for this party as I organized the whole event but I had a breakthrough attendance of more than 300 students for this party. I was surprised! I had to make a lot of phone calls, do the follow up, create my own team for this party, etc.. Imagine I was like Kofi Annan, the former secretary of the United Nations, meeting students from different international assiociation of the college. Wow!!! At least everyone knew how to speak English! So I met up with them and asked them to promote this event for their country mates. At first, they came late as expected so we were not ready yet. But the good thing is that everyone had fun in the end!
-Formal Dress Code-
Last 2 weeks, I had some events whereby I had to wear a formal dress, which i don't usually wear. So I had to bring along with my fashion consultant and classmate Joanna with me to Mid Valley and shop for formal clothes. I had to wear for a launching thing on the net whereby the deputy minister of higher education came for this event. I was asked to be the usher. It's the 2nd time I met the DM of Higher Education in person. The first time was when I was invited to the Minister's house. Haha!! Not bad this Robin! hahaha!!! *ahem* Another day that I had to wear formal was when the Minister of Education invited me to an open house, in a big hall in putrajaya (where all the offices of the ministers are). So 2nd time in a week I wore formal dress and I met and chitchat with the Minister. *ahem* 3rd time, I was asked by the college to be a Model *ahem* for the school brochure. So I had to pose for session of photo shoots!!! I had to wear formal again as I had to act as if I was a businessman. I got to put make up for the first time also! Haha!! I became so handsome that I couldn't recognize myself! Hahaha!!! Just imagine as I say that! Finally last and not least, I had to wear formal again for the Prom Night of A Levels whereby I was the MC. I had never wore formal like that for my whole life! In a week, it's like 5 times!!! Not bad, not bad at all!!! hihi ^^
