Yay! I've got my phone call today. I was practising my taekwondo patterns when I got the call. Wow. God always bless at the most unexpected time. :D

I was so nervous and couldn't think straight. I guess I was even stuttering a bit because I was really taken by surprise. However, the guy was really nice about it, after hearing my feedback and all. I'm so glad that he finally got to know what happened. I felt so much better after that, even though there's more waiting for this week. I don't know, I just feel so blessed that he's so understanding about the whole issue. One heavy weight's off my shoulder. :)

God Is Great~!

"Good Riddance (Time Of Your Life)"

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road

Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go

So make the best of this test, and don't ask why

It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

So take the photographs, and still frames in your mind

Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time

Tattoos of memories and dead skin on trial

For what it's worth it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right.

I hope you had the time of your life.

Last week, during the SDI Chinese New Year gathering, Faisal dedicated this song to me, cos I said I miss SDI. It's so sweet, I have no idea why, but it spoke to me at that moment. It's exactly what I feel about my internship at SDI...thanks guys (ladies too), for the precious memories you gave me...I did have the time of my life...

Training was interesting. It still feels great knowing that I can still run, even though I felt like puking after that. But I'm still satisfied. :D...Trying to teach the younger kids was challenging though. I hope I'm gonna get better at that. According to Sir, be patient, don't be afraid to punish them and respect them, they will respect you in return. Anyway, he suggested that I join the National Championships for sparring. I'm really interested but worried. The fear of injuring others is constantly with me. Better be more aggressive. I hope that I can spar with confidence someday, soon...

The agony of waiting is still stuck with me. I know I should trust God cos when it's time, according to his plan, I will get the reply and the call. But still, the wait's killing me. I want a closure...

I miss SDI so much...

Oh well, it was a rough week for me. Work was up with all the visits to fire station,heritage gallary and CDA, but then it went down with all the mention of transferring and ceasing of the internship. So yeah, my internship at SCDF officially ended after friday. As much as I liked my officers and learnt plenty of new things, I think I'm glad to leave. But I still feel sore about what happened and all. I mean, it was so sudden and I was really taken aback. The only comfort I get is that God allowed everything to happen for a reason. I won't regret the internship for if I was given a choice and had to choose all over again, I would still go for the internship. Only when I experience something, then I will truly know how it feels like. Right now, I think I just need time to get over this entire thing and hopefully, get a closure soon.

On a happier note, I went to Youth Retreat during the weekend. As expected, I never did regret going there. It was really nice getting to meet up with everyone again, just enjoying each other's company. The best part of it all was that we get to go for service together, straight from the chalet. I'm early for service, for the very first time. Hahaz.

By the way, Pastor Larry prayed for me during the retreat and I'm really encouraged by what God has in plan for me, what He has promised me. I just feel so blessed and amazed by how He speaks to me at the most unexpected time.

" Quiet confidence;

Even though you may have gone through seasons of trials and testings, may even feel loneliness at times, God is in Control;

There are angels encamped around you; God is protecting you;

He's gonna put you in groups;

You'll be able to pull individuals aside and minister to them;

You have the Gift/Heart of Counsel;

You're gonna be a blessing and encouragement to women;

Hurting women & young girls will come to you for hope and refreshment. "

HOCKEY BBQ (SAT)

Only a few people turned up for the hockey BBQ. But it was homely and warm. Don't mention anything about the food..it was mostly badly burnt or uncooked. Hahaz. We didn't even know how to start the fire. Luckily, there was the SUPERMAN+MR MANGKUK+BAYI+++ to help us. Hahaz. free labour...;p. The girls had fun taking photos, as usual, especially the must have jumping shots. hahaz.:D

Syida, with her forever merepek's face. Hahaz

Now, Shida, the one with the sexy hair, is preparing the food. :D

Here's the labourer who's enjoying his marshmellow, even before the proper BBQ started. Tsk tsk tsk...

Hana, always ready with a pose.

The final turn-out for our batch..we miss the rest..

Now...let's proceed to the jumping shots...:P

They sure look scarily like vampires. It really cracked us up.

So that's it, hockey outings always end with jumping shots. By the way, Khalis was there too. Just that she left early, didn't manage to catch her in any of the shots. Rather, I meant decent ones. :P

Work was interesting today. I went to the Civil Defence Academy(CDA) with one of the paramedic and saw how musical CPR is done. I didn't know that they do put up performances of musical CPR to the public, just to educate them. It's rather fascinating, seeing how the paramedics practise and try to synchronise their movements so that they'll look neat as a whole. Then, another officer brought me around the place, to take a look at the facilities. She also told me about the trainings and all. Too bad, I couldn't see any of the trainings being carried out cos apparently, friday's the clean-up/slacker day. Hopefully, I can go back to visit again. Anyway, I got a ride in the ambulance, around CDA only ah, but better than nothing. At least, I get to take a ride without having to have been involved in an accident or some sort beforehand. Hahaz. I'm so thankful things are looking brighter.:D

I think my work's gonna get better. I went to BRTC (Basic Rescue Training Centre) for a visit and to Prison HQ to attend a meeting. It's kinda interesting, to know more about counselling and all. That said, it's still not exactly what I want to learn from SCDF. Anyway, I had a talk with my boss and he understood how i feel. The Director talked to me before that and he realised I was sorta placed in the 'wrong' team. He's super duper nice, unlike some other rude and obnoxious high-ranking officer that I met. So, my Director talked to my boss and they're looking into things that they can teach me and expose me to, more about the groundwork. I'm so so glad that all the officers that I work with are so kind and understanding, open to feedback. Hahaz. My boss said he was waiting for me to speak up. Oh! There's this nice female civilian officer who's slighter older than me. She's very easy-going, very willing to share about her thoughts and orientating me around. Both of them gave me chocolates today, for vday. Hahaz. I just hope that at the end of this two months of internship, I can gain an invaluable experience and would have had enjoyed my time there. :)

Btw, Happy Valentine's Day!

First day at work was BORING. I had nothing to do as usual and I had to try hard not to fall asleep. Luckily, my boss was kind enough to talk to me and explain to me about his work. He talked to me about courses that I can take up in Uni. Now, I have a better and clearer idea of what I want to take already. By the way, I'm attached to Manpower Dept - Care Management Team. It does seem interesting but I have no idea what I can do in the two months that I'm there. Oh, guess who I met, of all people, Jimson, my supposedly "long-lost relative". What luck, I seem to run into him wherever I go. Well, at least I know someone. Anyway, I'm gonna be brought out to visit some training institute tomorrow. Hopefully, everything will turn out better. :D

P.S. I'm allowed to take time off to return to SDI for the new year gathering next Monday. I
can't wait! Miss them already..:S

It's the first new year that we're celebrating after ah gong passed away. Somehow, it just feels different, especially since most of my relatives are overseas. That said, I'm still thankful for my family and friends who made this new year so enjoyable and rowdy :D

1st new year family portrait.

We're such a weird combination but I think I'm gonna enjoy spending time with these two wacky fellows..:P

my 06A03 gang;

I miss hanging out with them in school, teasing and joking around, studying together (though i end up sleeping most of the time.:P)

New year cards done by Sharina's sisters. Aren't they sweet?:D

Hazimah;

I miss those long chats that we have whenever we meet up, those studying-turned-into-chatting times and knowing that there's someone who shares the same view as me regarding a particular someone.

Hockers;

I MISS THIS GROUP LIKE CRAZY! Miss playing on the pitch together, hanging out after hockey, laughing out loud during those rides home and getting weird stares all around, those wacky times together. Really thankful that they were the ones who made me love hockey...:D

(I forgot to take photos with my SDI gang!!!!argh..!)

Thanks to all these people, my new year was totally awesome. :)

Happy Birthday to my beloved Ah Ma~!

The Birthday Granny;D

The Grandchildren (me, me!!!)

The children/children-in-law

This is it, a birthday celebration that brought the whole family together. (even though we're together most of the time.heeheez...).

It's also the reason why I simply love my family members..:D

I'm supposed to be offline, but I just can't help it. Received an email from Director SDI, thanking me for the card I gave, wishing me success and happy new year. How shocking is that! Wow, I feel so honoured. :P

Went back to SDI for a visit on Wednesday. I played badminton. :)

Here's a glimpse of my SPF internship...

Welcome to SDI!

I'm so gonna miss entering the office through this automated door every morning.

My 'mat' friend & laughing buddy, Amin :D

I'm so gonna miss tagging along when he's despatching, 'visiting and exploring' the building, teasing him, calling him 'mat', laughing together with him, gonna miss the fact that I can escape to his corner and he'll understand perfectly why...

My neighbour & badminton partner, Jackson :P

I'm gonna miss rolling my eyes at his stupid comments, playing badminton with him, those long chats and just being amused by him...

My one & only favourite uncle, Azman ;D

I'm so gonna miss asking him weird and random questions, helping him do work, listening to his relation of police work, his 'duhz' and 'ya~', him calling me 'ah mui', being amused with him, nagging at him(yes, I did :D), just hanging out with him...in fact, I already miss him...:(

I'm gonna miss sitting in this car, when we go out for lunch or dinner. Miss sitting in front comfortably while the guys squeezed behind (MUAHAHAZ!), or getting amused by uncle when he sings/taps/sways to the music...

I'm just gonna miss hanging out with them and all the other peeps at SDI. Simply love them.:D

Recently, after reading Khalis's blog, I'm just so inspired to start my own blog. Hopefully, others will also be inspired after reading my blog. So this is it, my first post.:)
