Convocation Fair (not sure whether it's the right term)

2011-09-21T14:08:00.001+08:00

1403 21st September 2011 Wednesday

A&W’s Corny Dog is expensive. RM 7.10, but it’s quite nice.

Convocation Day. Saw people wearing purple robes and purple hats. Began wondering how do they feel, and what will I feel on my day. I guess it would be reluctance to stop studying, I would like to study until the level of PhD. Hehe.

Saw an auntie parking her big car for about 10 minutes. I would offer some help, but that would be an insult to her parking skills.

0106 14th September Wednesday

Went out to eat again tonight. Murtabak kambing, RM6, slightly larger portion compared to Pokok Cheri.

Lesson today was as usual. I didn’t know much. I went to buy the book at UniRia with the help of Winnie. Costs me RM 70 to buy a book.

Been studying for quite some time, plus playing with command prompt a little to know more about these kind of thing.

First Day of Class

2011-09-12T23:50:00.002+08:00

1610 Monday 12th September 2011

First lecture was on programming. C++? Never heard of it. Latest Processor: Pentium don’t know what 7? Never heard of it. Study, study. Text books costs a lot, and is limited. Nearest Maybank atm is at Queensbay Mall. Approximately 45 minutes walk from here. Money money, send me money. Free time from now until tomorrow.

1149

Went outside for the first time. Quite a few people there, and many shops including seven 11, photostat shops, restaurants, and a dobi. Overall not bad, good enough for me.

Last Day of Orientation

2011-09-12T16:08:00.002+08:00

0100 Saturday 12th September 2011

Today is the last day of orientation. Washed my clothes in the afternoon, went for session, rained heavily, now it’s all wet. Great.

Class starts tomorrow at 1100. Before that I’m going to get my student card and if I have time, register for wifi. Or else I’ll register after class. Got the whole day to spare after class.

To get to stay in the hostels in my second year, I have to be active in co-curricular activities. And get some positions. To drive into campus I have to get super high positions. Well, those places are for those people. I’ll consider staying outside campus and drive a car there. Boohoo. Going to pack my bag and prepare some essential things such as map and the like. Good night.

Crazy People Does Crazy Thing

1252 Sunday 11th September 2011

Crazy people do crazy things. This is what happened.

During orientation week, a group of volunteers/seniors called PPSL (Program Pemimpin Siswa Lestari) helped us in everything: shepherding us here and there, asking whether we eat or not, is anybody sick, helping us with PTPTN, JPA, ANYTHING.

Tonight, we had briefing as usual. They were calling out people who filled in the forms wrongly for the umpteenth time. As usual there were people talking. Then this guy shouted at us as if he is out of control, and then he asked all the seniors to go downstairs. Then another guy came and continued shouting, saying they do this for us, they get nothing, they are just volunteers, why we complain to the higher ups about them, they even traced those people’s phone numbers, room number, IC, etc etc. Well, it was so real everyone was scared. In the end it was just a surprise for those people who had their birthday that week. Crazy people doing crazy stuff.

For the rest of my day, I registered for my course this morning, took around 2 hours. Then rest time until 1430, where we had briefing on the campus library. We can even borrow books from other universities. And we were told our student card can allow us to visit any library in Malaysian government’s universities. The best part about our library is that they have “Wireless Printing”. We can top up our student card with some money, register at a counter, and when we need to print something, all we need to do is upload our documents into some server anywhere within the campus. Then we can scan our student card at the printer or somewhere and choose the file to be printed. Cool huh?

Tomorrow is the last day of orientation, will be having long break from around 1230 to 1900.

Day Three

2011-09-12T16:04:00.000+08:00

0159 Saturday 10th September 2011

Had a forum on “Integrity” tonight. I didn’t listen, only played worms on hand phone and slept a little. In the morning we had a session on something about our courses. Then we went to our respective schools after lunch. The lecturers were nice, and we can ask questions during tutorials and classes, unlike what some people told me that “you have to study yourself, the lecturer won’t care about you”. In fact, they have to respond to our questions and problems, even if we send them emails. But we have to respect their office hours and appointments and the like. That’s it for today, quite an uneventful one. Though I got a little excited to start studying right away.

Day Two

2011-09-12T16:03:00.001+08:00

1728 Thursday 8th September 2011

Just bathe. Today we were officially students of USM. Yeah! We had a “Walkrobik Kampus” where every first-year student, according to their respective hostels, all gather at one place and walk to the stadium. We then had cheering competition where the team who shout the loudest and has the best group cheer wins. I didn’t win.

Tonight, we are having free dinner with the vice chancellor. As usual, formal attire. It’s expected to start after 2000, and I’m already hungry right now. Grrrr. Anyway, tonight will be the most relaxing night we have since coming here.

Finally have my bed sheet and pillow case today. I will be fined if I don’t have those. And they’re in green. “Go green” eh? And tonight I was back at my room at 2325. Nice.

Tomorrow I’ll be registering for my courses. Hope I don’t get lost.

Day One

2011-09-12T16:01:00.001+08:00

0141 Wednesday 7th September 2011

Today I went back to my room at 0130. Again. By again I mean yesterday was the same. Reached my room at 0130 in the morning. Set my alarm at 0600, woke at 0645 when my roommate went to bathe (it was already late). Have to be down for breakfast by 0600.

Tomorrow we have to register for our co-curricular activities. I wanted to join the
jazz band to learn to play the saxophone, but only musicians who already know how to play can join. Never mind then. I wanted to join the scouts/rovers next, but it’s held EVERY SATURDAY, and if you miss once (for uniformed bodies) you’ll get a grade F for that year. I want to go home. So I decided not to join any co-curricular activities for the first semester (it’s not compulsory for the whole duration of study) and wait for more detailed information on other co-curricular activities.

About my roommate, he’s very tall, the tallest in the whole of first year students, and about half a head taller than me (I didn’t measure properly) and he’s very gentle and slow-motioned. The kind of people I like to live with. He doesn’t talk much too, doesn’t have friends (from what I observed), not vulgar, do not smoke, tidy, the kind of person I like to stay with. And oh, I’m living on the 7th floor, but don’t be happy, there are four lifts here. The air is cool especially at night because I’m staying about quarter way up a hill and I’m on the 7th floor. Quite cold without a shirt on.

I won’t be posting this until I register for the wireless which can be done after I get my student card (I think) which I will get on Monday. Now, I’ll go release my bowels, wash my face, and then I’ll play chess with my ancestor.

USM

2011-09-06T03:10:00.001+08:00

USM, here I come.

Worst part of leaving is the packing.

Truth? Check the Bible!

2011-05-04T20:58:00.000+08:00

I found something interesting on the internet:

Adam, (the man) was formed on the 8th day ?
Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
Genesis 2:3 And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.
Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

But from what I read in the Bible, Genesis 1:27 says "So God created man......", and later on in verse 31 "God saw all that he had made.......the sixth day."
Hence Acts 17:11 "......examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true."

God vs Science

2010-03-27T22:01:00.001+08:00

'Let me explain the problem science has with religion.' The atheist
professor of philosophy pauses before his class and then asks one of
his new students to stand.

'You're a Christian, aren't you, son?'

'Yes sir,' the student says.

'So you believe in God?'

'Absolutely.

'Is God good?'

'Sure! God's good.'

'Is God all-powerful? Can God do anything?'

'Yes'

'Are you good or evil?'

'The Bible says I'm evil.'

The professor grins knowingly. 'Aha! The Bible!' He considers for a
moment. 'Here's one for you. Let's say there's a sick person over here
and you can cure him.. You can do it. Would you help him? Would you
try?'

'Yes sir, I would.'

'So you're good...!'

'I wouldn't say that.'

'But why not say that? You'd help a sick and maimed person if you
could. Most of us would if we could.. But God doesn't.'

The student does not answer, so the professor continues. 'He doesn't,
does he? My brother was a Christian who died of cancer, even though he
prayed to Jesus to heal him. How is this Jesus good? Hmmm? Can you
answer that one?'

The student remains silent...

'No, you can't, can you?' the professor says. He takes a sip of water
from a glass on his desk to give the student time to relax.

'Let's start again, young fella. Is God good?'

'Er..yes,' the student says.

'Is Satan good?'

The student doesn't hesitate on this one. 'No.'

'Then where does Satan come from?'

The student falters. 'From God'

'That's right. God made Satan, didn't he? Tell me, son. Is there evil
in this world?'

'Yes, sir.'

'Evil's everywhere, isn't it? And God did make everything correct??

'Yes'

'So who created evil?' The professor continued, 'If God created
everything, then God created evil, since evil exists, and according to
the principle that our works define who we are, then God is evil.'

Again, the student has no answer. 'Is there sickness? Immorality?
Hatred? Ugliness? All these terrible things, do they exist in this
world?'

The student squirms on his feet. 'Yes.'

'So who created them?'

The student does not answer again, so the professor repeats his
question. 'Who created them?' There is still no answer. Suddenly the
lecturer breaks away to pace in front of the classroom. The class is
mesmerized. 'Tell me,' he continues onto another student.

'Do you believe in Jesus Christ, son?

The student's voice betrays him and cracks. 'Yes, professor, I do.'

The old man stops pacing. 'Science says you have five senses you use
to identify and observe the world around you. Have you ever seen
Jesus?'

'No sir. I've never seen Him..'

'Then tell us if you've ever heard your Jesus?'

'No, sir, I have not.'

'Have you ever felt your Jesus, tasted your Jesus or smelled your
Jesus? Have you ever had any sensory perception of Jesus Christ, or
God for that matter?'

'No, sir, I'm afraid I haven't.'

'Yet you still believe in him?'

'Yes'

'According to the rules of empirical, testable, demonstrable protocol,
science says your God doesn't exist.. What do you say to that, son?'

'Nothing,' the student replies. 'I only have my faith.'

'Yes, faith,' the professor repeats. 'And that is the problem science
has with God. There is no evidence, only faith.'

The student stands quietly for a moment, before asking a question of
His own. 'Professor, is there such thing as heat?'

' Yes.'

'And is there such a thing as cold?'

'Yes, son, there's cold too.'

'No sir, there isn't.'

The professor turns to face the student, obviously interested.

The room suddenly becomes very quiet. The student begins to explain.

'You can have lots of heat, even more heat, super-heat, mega-heat,
unlimited heat, white heat, a little heat or no heat, but we don't
have anything called 'cold'. We can hit up to 458 degrees below zero,
which is no heat, but we can't go any further after that. There is no
such thing as cold; otherwise we would be able to go colder than the
lowest -458 degrees.'

'Every body or object is susceptible to study when it has or transmits
energy, and heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit
energy. Absolute zero (-458 F) is the total absence of heat. You see,
sir, cold is only a word we use to describe the absence of heat. We
cannot measure cold. Heat we can measure in thermal units because heat
is energy. Cold is not the opposite of heat, sir, just the absence of
it..'

Silence across the room. A pen drops somewhere in the classroom,
sounding like a hammer.

'What about darkness, professor. Is there such a thing as darkness?'

'Yes,' the professor replies without hesitation. 'What is night if it
isn't darkness?'

'You're wrong again, sir. Darkness is not something; it is the absence
of something. You can have low light, normal light, bright light,
flashing light, but if you have no light constantly you have nothing
and it's called darkness, isn't it? That's the meaning we use to
define the word.'

'In reality, darkness isn't. If it were, you would be able to make
darkness darker, wouldn't you?'

The professor begins to smile at the student in front of him. This
will be a good semester. 'So what point are you making, young man?

'Yes, professor. My point is, your philosophical premise is flawed to
start with, and so your conclusion must also be flawed.'

The professor's face cannot hide his surprise this time. 'Flawed? Can
you explain how?'

'You are working on the premise of duality,' the student explains..
'You argue that there is life and then there's death; a good God and a
bad God. You are viewing the concept of God as something finite,
something we can measure. Sir, science can't even explain a thought.'
'It uses electricity and magnetism, but has never seen, much less
fully understood either one. To view death as the opposite of life is
to be ignorant of the fact that death cannot exist as a substantive
thing. Death is not the opposite of life, just the absence of it.

'Now tell me, professor. Do you teach your students that they evolved
from a monkey?'

'If you are referring to the natural evolutionary process, young man,
yes, of course I do.'

'Have you ever observed evolution with your own eyes, sir?'

The professor begins to shake his head, still smiling, as he realizes
where the argument is going. A very good semester, indeed.

'Since no one has ever observed the process of evolution at work and
cannot even prove that this process is an on-going endeavor, are you
not teaching your opinion, sir? Are you now not a scientist, but a
preacher?'

The class is in uproar... The student remains silent until the commotion
has subsided.

'To continue the point you were making earlier to the other student,
let me give you an example of what I mean.'

The student looks around the room. 'Is there anyone in the class who
has ever seen the professor's brain?' The class breaks out into
laughter.

'Is there anyone here who has ever heard the professor's brain, felt
the professor's brain, touched or smelled the professor's brain? No
one appears to have done so. So, according to the established rules of
empirical, stable, demonstrable protocol, science says that you have
no brain, with all due respect, sir.'

'So if science says you have no brain, how can we trust your lectures,
sir?'

Now the room is silent.. The professor just stares at the student, his
face unreadable..

Finally, after what seems an eternity, the old man answers. 'I guess
you'll have to take them on faith.'

'Now, you accept that there is faith, and, in fact, faith exists with
life,' the student continues. 'Now, sir, is there such a thing as
evil?'

Now uncertain, the professor responds, 'Of course, there is. We see
it everyday It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It
is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world.
These manifestations are nothing else but evil.'

To this the student replied, 'Evil does not exist sir, or at least it
does not exist unto itself. Evil is simply the absence of God.. It is
just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe
the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is the result of
what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart.
It's like the cold that comes when there is no heat or the darkness
that comes when there is no light.'

The professor sat down.

The student was Albert Einstein. Albert Einstein did write a book
titled God vs... Science in 1921...

If you read it all the way through and had a smile on your face when
you finished, mail to your friends and family with the title 'God vs
Science'.

"For we walk by faith, not by sight." 2 Corinthians 5:7

First Day

2010-01-11T16:47:00.002+08:00

Today is the first day for the implementation of the government's new schooling system or whatever it is for Form 6 students. Basically we have to stay back, or school hours is until 4.05 p.m. for my school.
What did we do today? Or what did I do?
Well, after school, or 1.10 p.m. I went to the canteen to have my lunch.
Then I went back to class for further instructions since it's the first day.
The next time I see any teacher is 4.05p.m. At the school gate. In their car. Driving off.
No teacher came into the class. So what did the students do? Go home. Yeah. I'm the only person left in my class.
Cool huh? Most students went back around 2p.m. some 3p.m. Me, 4p.m.
So, tomorrow, what time shall I go home?

2012???

2009-10-06T19:58:00.003+08:00

Last week, my friends asked me something. First he asked me whether Christians believe in the end of the world. I said yes. Then he told me somebody, a christian, went to a camp and said the end's going to come at year 2012. Then, just now I read Michelle Little Girl's blog, and she also said her friend said the end's going to come at 2012.

What is this? I could say it would come next year and given enough persistance and spreading, everyone would say it is true.

So....
Don't believe such things. We won't know when it's coming, just like you won't know whether it will rain or not. As simple as that.

Sex...

2009-10-04T14:55:00.003+08:00

God created us male and female. Scientists studied about human DNA and genes and stuff. During the formation of gametes (sexual reproductive cells) the genes in our DNA are recombined in a different way so that we have different characteristics as our parents. According to studies, there are genes which controls hair color, skin color, and the list goes on. The are chromosomes that controls our gender. Males have XY-chromosomes and girl XX-chromosomes.

This is what I got from STARMAG (Sunday STAR), page SM4 or http://thestar.com.my/lifestyle/story.asp?file=/2009/10/4/lifefocus/4729310&sec=lifefocus.

1.Gender: A socially constructed system of classification that ascribes qualities of masculinity and femininity to people.
[I understand it as : people see you as male/female on the outside.]

2.Gender identity: The gender one sees oneself as – masculine/feminine, male/female, including refusing to label oneself with a gender. Gender identity does not cause sexual orientation. For example, a masculine woman is not necessarily a lesbian.
[I understand it as : who you are on the inside.]

3.Sexual orientation: Aka sexuality, the deep-seated direction of one’s sexual (erotic) attraction, for example:
·Heterosexual, or “straight” – a person who experiences sexual, emotional, and/or romantic attraction to a sex other than his own (“attraction to the opposite sex”).
·Homosexual, or “gay” – a person who is attracted to the same sex.
Given the extistence of intersexualism, transsexualism and transgenderism, these definitions are limiting and not entirely accurate.
·Bisexual, or “bi” – a person who is attracted to two sexes or two genders (not necessarily simultaneously or equally.)
·Pansexual – a person who is fluid in sexual orientation and/or gender identity.
Transsexualism is not a sexual orientation.
[I understand all these as : the sexual side of you determined by your abnormal genes (I consider these as an abnormality).]

4.Transsexual: Someone who experiences a mismatch between his/her biological sex and gender identity, and can be of any sexual orientation.
According to reports from the Malaysian transsexual community, they number close to 20,000, says sociology Prof Teh Yik Koon from the National Defence University of Malaysia. (In her 2002 book, The Mak Nyahs: Malaysian Male to Female Transsexuals, she estimated their numbers at 10,000.)
[I understand this as : serious abnormality in your sex chromosomes.]

5.Transitioning: A transsexual may undergo medical and/or surgical treatment to change his/her physical sex to match his/her gender identity. This is a complicated, multi-step process that can take years and may include sex reassignment surgery.
[To me this is some crazy process where you change yourself from male to female and vice versa. Not recommended for sane and normal humans like you and me.]

6.Trans man: A female-to-male transition (FTM).
[What I think : basically some crazy people.]
Trans woman: A male-to-female transition (MTF).
[What I think : more crazy people.]
All transsexuals are transgender, or “trans” persons, but not all trans-persons are transsexuals.
[This sentence means although some people are normal they still change their sex. Really really crazy people.]

7.Transgender people: Those whose gender identities differ from the social expectations for the physical sex they were born with, including transvestites (cross-dressers), transgenderists (people who live mostly in a gender role different from their biological gender), gender queers (people who blur the boundaries of gender even further), and people who identify as neither female nor male. “Transgender” is not a sexual orientation; transgender people can be of any sexual orientation.
[Comment : abnormal genes.]

Finally, a person can be in (secretive) or out (open with others) about his/her sexual orientation and gender identity in varying degrees.

So, this is what I get from The Star. Those in [] I added them myself.

What is happening actually? I have no idea, don't ask me. But there are somethings I'm curious about:
1.What are the causes of these?
My answer so far: abnormal sex chromosomes, parents drink too much alcohol or smoke too much or had some chemical in their bodies that causes the genes to become abnormal etc etc.
2.How long has these been happening? Is it just recently or it had been happening for as long as the population of humans on this earth is enough to have this abnormality happen? Did they hide these part of themselves for fear of being burnt at stakes as witches or demons?
3.Did God made them like this?
The possibilities I could think of : if God made them like that, then it must be the problem with the formation of gametes. If it is because of humans, then, it's their own fault.

I don't think it's their fault actually. The Bible says sins are passed down for a few generations, if it is caused by sin. If it's caused by God, it's also not their fault. But those who change their physical sex are crazy, and those who are genetically normal and changes sex, that's crazy.

If these phenomenon happens throughout the ages, why do people choose this time to come out to the open? Different way of thinking?

And many earthquakes and typhoons and floods and tsunami's all happen in one go... What next? Ice berg floating down from north pole aided by 100 typhoons and 500 tsunami's acquiring the speed of light and smashing it's way all over the globe and finally smash into the sun causing a supernova and then rampaging throughout the whole universe then the end of the world? Lol... How ah?

I got this from http://www.sciencemadesimple.com/sky_blue.html

2009-09-29T21:35:00.001+08:00

On a clear sunny day, the sky above us looks bright blue. In the evening, the sunset puts on a brilliant show of reds, pinks and oranges. Why is the sky blue? What makes the sunset red?

To answer these questions, we must learn about light, and the Earth's atmosphere.

THE ATMOSPHERE

The atmosphere is the mixture of gas molecules and other materials surrounding the earth. It is made mostly of the gases nitrogen (78%), and oxygen (21%). Argon gas and water (in the form of vapor, droplets and ice crystals) are the next most common things. There are also small amounts of other gases, plus many small solid particles, like dust, soot and ashes, pollen, and salt from the oceans.

The composition of the atmosphere varies, depending on your location, the weather, and many other things. There may be more water in the air after a rainstorm, or near the ocean. Volcanoes can put large amounts of dust particles high into the atmosphere. Pollution can add different gases or dust and soot.

The atmosphere is densest (thickest) at the bottom, near the Earth. It gradually thins out as you go higher and higher up. There is no sharp break between the atmosphere and space.

LIGHT WAVES

Light is a kind of energy that radiates, or travels, in waves. Many different kinds of energy travel in waves. For example, sound is a wave of vibrating air. Light is a wave of vibrating electric and magnetic fields. It is one small part of a larger range of vibrating electromagnetic fields. This range is called the electromagnetic spectrum.

Electromagnetic waves travel through space at 299,792 km/sec (186,282 miles/sec). This is called the speed of light.

The energy of the radiation depends on its wavelength and frequency. Wavelength is the distance between the tops (crests) of the waves. Frequency is the number of waves that pass by each second. The longer the wavelength of the light, the lower the frequency, and the less energy it contains.

COLORS OF LIGHT

Visible light is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that our eyes can see. Light from the sun or a light bulb may look white, but it is actually a combination of many colors. We can see the different colors of the spectrum by splitting the light with a prism. The spectrum is also visible when you see a rainbow in the sky.

The colors blend continuously into one another. At one end of the spectrum are the reds and oranges. These gradually shade into yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. The colors have different wavelengths, frequencies, and energies. Violet has the shortest wavelength in the visible spectrum. That means it has the highest frequency and energy. Red has the longest wavelength, and lowest frequency and energy.

LIGHT IN THE AIR

Light travels through space in a straight line as long as nothing disturbs it. As light moves through the atmosphere, it continues to go straight until it bumps into a bit of dust or a gas molecule. Then what happens to the light depends on its wave length and the size of the thing it hits.

Dust particles and water droplets are much larger than the wavelength of visible light. When light hits these large particles, it gets reflected, or bounced off, in different directions. The different colors of light are all reflected by the particle in the same way. The reflected light appears white because it still contains all of the same colors.

Gas molecules are smaller than the wavelength of visible light. If light bumps into them, it acts differently. When light hits a gas molecule, some of it may get absorbed. After awhile, the molecule radiates (releases, or gives off) the light in a different direction. The color that is radiated is the same color that was absorbed. The different colors of light are affected differently. All of the colors can be absorbed. But the higher frequencies (blues) are absorbed more often than the lower frequencies (reds). This process is called Rayleigh scattering. (It is named after Lord John Rayleigh, an English physicist, who first described it in the 1870's.)

WHY IS THE SKY BLUE?

The blue color of the sky is due to Rayleigh scattering. As light moves through the atmosphere, most of the longer wavelengths pass straight through. Little of the red, orange and yellow light is affected by the air.

However, much of the shorter wavelength light is absorbed by the gas molecules. The absorbed blue light is then radiated in different directions. It gets scattered all around the sky. Whichever direction you look, some of this scattered blue light reaches you. Since you see the blue light from everywhere overhead, the sky looks blue.

As you look closer to the horizon, the sky appears much paler in color. To reach you, the scattered blue light must pass through more air. Some of it gets scattered away again in other directions. Less blue light reaches your eyes. The color of the sky near the horizon appears paler or white.

THE BLACK SKY AND WHITE SUN

On Earth, the sun appears yellow. If you were out in space, or on the moon, the sun would look white. In space, there is no atmosphere to scatter the sun's light. On Earth, some of the shorter wavelength light (the blues and violets) are removed from the direct rays of the sun by scattering. The remaining colors together appear yellow.

Also, out in space, the sky looks dark and black, instead of blue. This is because there is no atmosphere. There is no scattered light to reach your eyes.

WHY IS THE SUNSET RED?

As the sun begins to set, the light must travel farther through the atmosphere before it gets to you. More of the light is reflected and scattered. As less reaches you directly, the sun appears less bright. The color of the sun itself appears to change, first to orange and then to red. This is because even more of the short wavelength blues and greens are now scattered. Only the longer wavelengths are left in the direct beam that reaches your eyes.

The sky around the setting sun may take on many colors. The most spectacular shows occur when the air contains many small particles of dust or water. These particles reflect light in all directions. Then, as some of the light heads towards you, different amounts of the shorter wavelength colors are scattered out. You see the longer wavelengths, and the sky appears red, pink or orange.

IN MORE SIMPLER TERMS,

Why is the sky blue?

Light is a kind of energy that can travel through space. Light from the sun or a light bulb looks white, but it is really a mixture of many colors. The colors in white light are red, orange, yellow, green, blue and violet. You can see these colors when you look at a rainbow in the sky.

The sky is filled with air. Air is a mixture of tiny gas molecules and small bits of solid stuff, like dust.

As sunlight goes through the air, it bumps into the molecules and dust. When light hits a gas molecule, it may bounce off in a different direction. Some colors of light, like red and orange, pass straight through the air. But most of the blue light bounces off in all directions. In this way, the blue light gets scattered all around the sky.

When you look up, some of this blue light reaches your eyes from all over the sky. Since you see blue light from everywhere overhead, the sky looks blue.

In space, there is no air. Because there is nothing for the light to bounce off, it just goes straight. None of the light gets scattered, and the "sky" looks dark and black.

I don't see electricity. But I can see what it can do.
I don't see, fell, touch, smell, taste God, but I can see what he does. The people around me is proof of that. People in church, MYF, other churches, from all over Malaysia, bla bla bla...
Yeah, the only thing to do now is to figure what is actually the problem. Give me time.

Something from My Mind - Kids

2009-08-14T16:40:00.003+08:00

At church, there are lots of kids.
Kids are playful.
This morning before church school started I saw 3 kids bullying a kid.
Three against one.
They kept hitting him and running away.
The kid remained quite calm, but I can see he's aggravated too.
If I am not a good boy I would knock their heads together.
When church school started i can see that his arms are all red.
And there's this kid who can't stay still.
My mom have to always drag him around.
And there's another kid.
He's intelligent, and he's eager for attention.
Now he's graduated and he attends MYF.
He's somehow weird, opposite of me.
And his peers of the same age despise him.
They will jeer at him.
Bully him.
And during church school time they won't play with him.
At MYF he's very eager to show that he knows things. He wants attention.
Well, he's a nice kid. But he's kind of alone.
I'll move on to another kid.
A small kid this time.
A small kid who will just come to me and "play" with me whenever she sees me.
And I'm not a very "kid" person.
It's amazing how kids are innocent and they don't care who you are.
Now that I'm not a kid anymore, I sometimes missed my younger days.( not that I'm old, but I have my younger days )
Right now I can't relax in peace.
There are always unwanted things on my mind.
But if I ignore them something bad will happen.
Such as not studying etc etc.
As a kid I never cared about these things.
Last time I could read books as much as I wanted.
Now, if I were to read a long book, I might forget everything.
I might even lack sleep.
It's been a long time since I really read a book.
And there's the future to think about.
When I was a kid I seldom think about the future.
Or should I say never.
If it were to be put into an equation, where x = thoughts about the future, I would say x = o.1^infinity.
In case you don't know the value it's very small.
I think I deviated from half the topic.
So, back to topic, I think kids are nice, good, and whatever words in the dictionary which have similar meaning to good and nice.
So, be nice to kids, don't knock their heads together.

Matthew 18:3 And He said:"I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven."
Kids are innocent, pure and simple minded. When they believe in something they believe will all their heart. But as we grow older, our minds develops and we think more. We will start to doubt God.
This is something somebody at sometime told me:
"Faith is believing without any doubts. We have faith in a chair. We have faith that the chair would support our weight when we sit on it. We don't think twice when sitting on a chair." ( I rephrased the sentence, I was quite a long time ago )
In my opinion, that's the kind of faith a child has. God wants us to have that kind of faith. Do we have faith like a kid? Do we believe in God like we have faith in a chair?

Heart of A Crazy Driver

2009-08-02T15:30:00.002+08:00

Well, this afternoon after school, I burned my tires. Burned as in produces a lot of heat until it releases a 'burnt-rubber' odor and smoke/dust. That's what happened. Why? It's because of crazy drivers. Well, in front of my school there is a place to make a U-turn, and after school there are a lot of car, therefore there are lots of car queue-ing up to make a U-turn. then this crazy driver cut the queue and stop at the lane beside it, which means right in front of me, and naturally I stepped on the brake, honked till my horn exploded ( I'm exaggerating ) and managed to cross the traffic light before it turned red.

Well, the driver don't have much skill in cutting queue, if it were to be me I'd just stop my car right in front of the queue and speed off ASAP. It's all about speed. Same for the roundabout. You have to be fast and your car have to be small. A lorry can't make it. A Mercedes can't make it. I mean during busy hours, cause if it's not busy hour, why cut queue anyway? Besides, it's nice to do something out of the normal. Example, speeding past cars and overtaking cars with small spaces in between them. It isn't something you do since you were young. Some people never had the chance to experience it. I know it's dangerous, therefore you must have good judgement and considerable driving skills.

Some drivers follow your car very closely. It's because they want you to make way for them. But sometimes they went overboard. Last month a Proton Wira came very close to my car - from 0 km/h until 60 km/h, practically sticking to my car. That's an extremely crazy driver, with a high acceleration and that close, it's easy to knock the person in front. I purposely touched the brake pedal ( the brake lights went on but there were no deceleration ). The driver braked and skidded. Well, that's crazy. He is crazy. I'm not that crazy. I'm still sane. I still want my life. Take that! You crazy driver.

More crazy things I did before :
1. Squeezing into small spaces with barely millimeters to spare.
2. Making U-turns at a little more then 20 km/h during rainy days.

More to come, just remind me ok?

Dream Time

2009-07-24T15:17:00.002+08:00

This year's Christmas party, lets start at 6.30 and end at 10, do lots of things, reach a target of 100 people, invite people from churches in Alor Star ( youths only, plus counselor ), need lots of funds and space, maybe we'll sit on the floor with carpet, 1 hour or more of worship/concert, then play games with prizes, 3 or more games running simultaneously, and there will be lots of pizza, partially home made, then after that we'll get everybody to clean the church, and we'll stay overnight!!! We'll be temporary guards for the church, then next day we'll have sunrise service!!! Means we'll be having Christmas party on the 31st because this year's 25th is on a Friday. Then in the afternoon we'll have a New Year party!!! Woo Hoo~~ But I forgot... There will be people going for NS... And JS, and whatever 'S'es there is. School, sand walking, sea drinking, selling star fish, sighthearing, Sunday legal gatherings, Sunday school ( or Friday ), anymore 'S'es? I guess not. Well, back to reality. Man, have to start making pizzas. For further information please call the toll-free hotline 1300-88-2525 to place your orders, thank you.

Random Stuff Straight from My Mind

2009-07-10T13:54:00.003+08:00

Let's rock this world to it's core! Yeah man, I'm gonna cut my hair. I'm gonna play with the effector later. I might whack the drums. Someone gave me a verse which Aunty Peh Lan had been looking for a long time. It's 1 Cor 11:14. I'll write more on my hair after I return OK? I have to go to the toilet now. I'm back. I'm sleepy. Back from hair cut. Weird. My head itches. I mean my hair is weird. Ok. I'm going now.

Update!!!

2009-07-07T21:09:00.002+08:00

Yeah, update, form 6, very deep, as in learn deep things, you know what I mean, cause it's not easy, not hard either, maths answers are long, yeah.
About teachers, MUET teacher like don't know how to teach, yeah, chemistry too fast, hard understand, partly because my foundation not good. But go tuition can learn better.
General Paper sucked as expected. Physics teacher can teach, but I don't remember, better learn properly at tuition.
Enough for academics, now for social, I found somebody who is also weird, who is unique in a special way like me, although we are the opposite, meaning I'm stone and the other person is the opposite of stone, yeah.
Finally got some ideas for my future. Maybe if my music improve a lot and i managed to learn some music theory maybe I'll join or make or whatever-word-to-use a band. Or maybe I'll go into ministry or maybe even learn some deep stuff like quantum physics or astronomy, or maybe things relation to the theory of relativity or nuclear thing or experiment with light-speed-transport or wormholes or black holes or time travel which I think is impossible no matter how humans research it, unless God wants human to succeed, which in my opinion is most likely not.
Yeah, and some days ago I decided to really train myself to be a leader, although I don't know how, but according to my experience in life (18 years) things will just work out fine. So I don't have to worry about that.
I also want to improve on my music and singing because I can't sing at all.
And at facebook people keep on buying my pets away from me, maybe because I bought their pets away from them first, yeah.
Yeah, I think that's all, is it all? Should be all, yeah.

Form 6

2009-05-25T13:40:00.003+08:00

I'm back on this blog... Welcome myself...
Well, Form 6 is interesting, tiring (have to take naps everyday) and well, tuition is long, 2.5 hours per class.
Physics is OK, Maths is fun, Chemistry boring, PA is partly fun, because I don't like the essay part, and MUET is, normal.
About teachers, lets start from the least-liked.
Firstly is my Physics teacher. He will come into the class, and without a word or acknowledging the students (even though we greet him), he will just start the lesson by "OK class we continue yesterday, bla bla bla... Then he will just write and explain then give us exercise to do.
Secondly is my PA-essay part teacher. He will put up a power point presentation, read from it, while we copy, and he will read slowly, like he haven't eaten for days. Enough about him.
Thirdly is Chemistry teacher. She can teach well, but, a bit fast in terms of speaking and she uses power point too. For every part of the syllabus she taught she will teach us to do questions. Quite a good teacher.
Fourthly is Maths teacher. Well, you can say he is not up to his word(s). During the first lesson he says that he doesn't care whether we pay attention in class or not, and he don't care whether we are absent or not. But recently he's been scolding students who are talking and not paying attention. By the way, you can see that he's excited when he is teaching.
Fifth is my PA-Maths or whatever-you-call-it part teacher. He is funny, and he likes to "bomb" a lot. Good teacher.
Lastly is MUET teacher. Well, I think he is the best because he interacts with the students a lot and the 1st thing he did during the 1st lesson is to discipline us and to get to know our names. There is a lot of participation from the students.
Thats all for now, more to come as the year goes by......

Sweet Memories

2009-02-23T18:25:00.001+08:00

My JS cupboard.
All of these reminds me of JS...
The 2 books are my diary and Bible... Diary reminds me of what occurred in JS, the Bible reminds me that I grew closer to God during JS, and also its the same Bible as Han Yun's.
The stone on my diary ( blue ) is my nickname, Stone!!! The two bands I broke are given by Sarah Yong ( sorry ).
The ping pong ball signifies Captain Ball.
The pick on the right and the drumsticks reminds me of the jamming times with all of you.
The orange present is given my the guy's mentors ( its a cup ).
The brush is to remind me that i first handwash my clothes at JS.
The file behind is what I learned at JS.
The tracts on the left is given for evangelistic purposes.
The chocolate mirror is given my Aunty Choy Quin.
The Rubik Cube I bought at Gurney Plaza reminds me of Melissa Joy. She likes my cube.
The burger reminds me of Michael. He likes Ramli burger.
The comb, well, I comb my hair a lot till all of you make fun of me.
The black card is given by Winnie.
The US dollar bill given by Reverend Ong has the inscription "In God We Trust".
The yellow paper is our mass event "Break Free" flier, giant version.
Behind is the map of taiping.
That's all for my cupboard.

The words on the card reads:
The Truth Shall Set You Free
Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. - Romans 8 : 1

Jeremiah School 2009

2009-01-26T22:27:00.001+08:00

Jeremiah School is nice!!! Wow!!! A total of 22 teenagers attended JS, 11 girls and 11 boys plus 3 mentors [ Austin Sia, Herbet Tan and Chang Choy Quin ] attended. It is held at SUFES Campsite, Tapah. It is a school to raise up Christians to not only be future pastors, but also to encourage youths to be involved in full-time ministry for God ( I think ).

Anyway, at JS we have to wash our own clothes, by means of soaking and scrubbing ( no washing machine ). The schedule is quite packed and there are only lunch break, afternoon break or games, dinner break and supper before lights out. Light outs are observed strictly and no curfews ( according to Aunty Choy Quin, this is a school, not camp, therefore no curfews ). The food is nice there. We also had chapel time, every Tuesday and Thursday night, where every student get a chance to share whatever they want to share. Personally I think it is a good practice as not everbody had ever shared before ( including me ). My chapel time is at 3rd February, right after the CNY break.

I learned a lot of things during JS, such as Conversational Ministry, how to meditate on God's word, the importance of evangelism, in which the Bible clearly states that we are to make disciples of all nations ( The Great Commision ). We also did the Freedom In Christ thing, how to study the Bible and lots more.

The fun part of JS is the students there. We had built a Christian community where everyone be open to one another. It was quite hard at 1st but as the days go by, everyone sort of got closer to each other. Even I am surprised at myself ( if you know me you would know why ).

I regretted that i didn't bring my camera there. But I'll surely bring after this CNY break. Memories may fade but digital pictures do not. I surely do not want to forget my JS friends. I learned a lot of things from them, especially the fact that bring everything to God in prayer. They did it all the time, I don't even think about praying to God.

We played captain ball everyday, as long as the conditions are right, such as permission from Aunty Choy Quin, no rain, etc.

Thats all for now. More updates to come later.

Christmas

2009-01-03T13:02:00.000+08:00

Bio Gathering

2008-12-16T22:20:00.022+08:00

This is posted for my friends, especially those who are not able to attend... ^^
15th December 2008 - Joanne's house - 5 Bio 2008 ( Keat Hwa 2 ) - "Barbecue" Party
Quite a number of us attended, some missing due to certain known and unknown reasons.
Note : The little boy is Joanne's neighbour.

Food - Chicken wing, Drumstick, Sausages ( with and without cheese ), crab sticks, bananas ( Joanne's ) choice, fried noodles, nuggets, chicken ball, french fries. Overall it was too much to finish, they ( not me, I am only the driver and suggester/advisor, anything you want to call it ) overestimated by quite a big margin on the food, but underestimated by half on the drinks (orange juice ).

We, some of us, the "organizers" decided to go to Tesco to buy the things needed for the party. At eight in the morning. Yeah eight. I went there at eight of course, but just to find out that they meant 0800 - GMT +9 ( in case you do not know, Malaysia is GMT +8 ). One hour!!! Poor me.

We spent two hours sightseeing in the supermarket, and we carted RM160 worth of items into my car and to Joanne's house.

We stopped by a wet market to buy bananas.

Ice available here [ 7 eleven ]..

We, I mean they had fun preparing food at Joanne's house. I took pictures all the time.

This is the way to prepare drinks, in case you do not know.

The party starts at night. Look at the food!!!

Barbeque time..

Tweens Camp

2008-12-06T21:46:00.036+08:00

I went to this Tweens camp at Tapah (foothills of Cameron Highlands) recently...
Its actually for kids 12 and 13 years old, so I went there as a junior helper.
Meet our camp coordinator, Josephine!!!

This is where everyone slept and had activities.

This is the canteen.The food isn't either bad nor good, the taste is ok, but the feel... Sometimes it feels too wet and sticky, which it isn't suppose to be.

I didn't expect to be assigned as a group leader, just assistant group leader or anything, but I got the post of group leader and 1st aider...
The camp consists of 17 boys and 24 girls....

Like my group? I'm the guy in black on the right.
From top left : Bryan, Michael, Joseph, Me
From Bottom left : Yen Sien, Chui Peng, Adelynn, Voon Kee, Daphne.

Two of the members from my group, Yen Sien and Chui Peng accepted Christ in this camp.

Luke 15 : 7 "I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent."

At 1st I was not quite sure of how to be a group leader, so during the group discussion time I got Aunty Peh Lan, also the camp speaker to help me out.

She also helped me to take over every morning devotion, because i don't do QT at all. So now I've decided to learn to do QT and try to do occasionally.

We had many outdoor activities at the camp, including a night hike and stream trotting.
During the night hike a girl without known reason refused to walk, so one of the oldest junior helper, Linus Lee help to carry her for some time until she can walk again.

During the stream trotting, a boy, whom doesn't do well with these kind of things, went very slowly. I think he's scared, maybe.

During the second day of camp, our camp commander, Samuel fell sick. He had fever and even vomited.

Eventually on the third day of camp Me and Joanne with the help of Uncle Jack accompanied him to the clinic in town. He felt better after that day.

We had a party during the last night of camp. During the party, every group has to act out a drama. One group got the prize for the best drama, and every got an encore.

Last morning of camp, the camp officers played a "prank" on the camper : everyone's slippers were hidden somewhere. Everyone had to look for their slippers in their respective groups.
Actually they are just in that box under the table. ^^

Overall, the camp is nice, and I might return to this camp again next year (2009) if I'm available.

[ I'll update this post once i get more photos... ]
