I'M SO BLESSED!!



Every saturday, i'll go over to my paternal grandparents house after my swimming lesson, to have my lunch with them before setting off to my piano lesson. And this saturday as usual i'm there to visit them, and guess what, my grandma bought this brand new mobile phone for me!!!! I've never ever requested that from her or from my parents, i just merely asked my parents what is the suitable age for me to have a mobile phone, and my parents had never thot of buying one for me too, but inside me i do hope to have one after seeing some of my peers having it, but i had never demanded one, and had always happily using toy phone to pretend as my mobile phone. However Daddy God is just so good to me, He knows my inner desires. Let me tell u, this isn't the 1st time i'm blessed with expensive stuff, there are just so many times that when i just pray and told Daddy God what i want, and really there'll be someone to bless me with that thing that i want. I'm just so blessed to be a child of the Most High God. =]

Our Blessed Desaru Trip

This june, we went to Desaru for our june holiday, we thot of just go relax, relax and do nothing much, but it turned out to be a truly Blessed and educational trip. It was an eye-opening experience for the kids and adults too.
Our 1st visit was to some real kampongs there, we who lived in the city , has never been or seen any kampongs.

This the inside of the kampong house, it's a real house not those for exhibition only. People actually live there.


When we visit the kampong, we must also try some kampong dishes, yum yum......=]P


Before eating must always remember to wash hands.

See how we enjoyed the yummy food.


This fridge is an extinct "Singer" brand fridge.


This is one the bedrooms in the house, after visiting the kampong, I really Thank God for the house that I currently live in.


Our 2nd destination, was to the Fruit Farm, over here I've learnt alot and get to see some of my favourite fruits growing on the trees, cos I normally see them in super market.


Look at this tree behind us, it's a banana tree, according to the guide, there are 1000 bananas growing on it.


This is a water apple or u can called it "jumboo", this is a special "jumboo" cos it has a seed in it, normal "jumboo" dosen't has any seed.


This is dragon fruit, this is how it grows.


Wonder what fruit is this, make a guess.


This is the noni fruit, u remember the Hawaiian noni, this is the one, mind u this fruit is really stinky, we nearly faint when the guide open the fruit for us to smell.


In the fruit farm they also keep bees, to make honey for them to sell, the guide also showed us how the bee work, and what to do when being chased by bees.


We also visited the fireflies farm, I think this is my favourite. This is my very 1st time seeing fireflies, not only we get to see thousands of them, we also get to catch them and keep them, but before that we need to wear our life jackets, cos we be on boats to the mangrove to see fireflies. My daddy tried very hard to take photo of the fire flies, but it all turn out to be black, can’t see at all =[
But we do have a great fun!


The beaches here were beautiful and rather clean, I love coming to the beach.


See, my lovely sandcastle.


We love coming to the pool after our breakfast, we enjoyed sliding down the slide with many different positions.



We were also very blessed to stay in this hotel, where they have this beautiful play room, we'll just come over to play whenever we're back to the hotel.

what should i do in this june holiday????


Horray......here come our long and awaited break!!! But then, after staying at home for a week, I think I'm beginning to feel bored, umm.....guess I just got to plan some exciting programmes for myself, should I .........





indulge in "GameBoy" til no day no night, and go into a level where I can simply "bo cham" who is standing next to me.

or should I go for a short trip with my buddies,

or should I go suntanning under the super hot sun,

or maybe to somewhere that's cold and freezing after a hot suntan,

or maybe I should go for donkey riding instead of my usual horse riding,

or maybe some artistic face painting,

or maybe I should just go one corner and indulge myself

with all the yummy food and eat all day long,

mmm......eating alone can be quite lonely, I guess I should feast with my buddies,


after all, I guess my ideal holiday is still to have fun with buddies til we all get twisted =]

Hallelujah!!! I'm going back for my horse riding again =]


Hallelujah, PTL, I'm going back for my horse riding again, this horse riding session is actually arranged by "Cerebral Pasly Centre" (the place where I go for my weekly physiotherapy, and the horse riding is at RDA). I enjoyed horse riding, it's so fun and the teachers here are always so encouraging. Heheee.....do I look good?



Let me have a word of prayer before I start.

Ok, one final adjustment and I'm ready to go...........




Hehee.....that's me on a rocking horse while waiting to get on the real one. Rocking to and fro, to and fro, think I might just go into my dreamland before getting on the real horse.

My mid-year results (",)

There's no mid-year exams for Ezekiel but some class tests, to assess the child if they understand what is taught. I would also want to give glory to God for his mid-year progress report.


Cos during last year the last term of his K2, I was suddenly over-whelmed by fears & worries for Ezekiel in pri sch. Reason being, many people out of good intention started sharing with me a lot abt the standard in pri sch lah, u must make sure your child know this lah, u must make sure u prepare your child for this lah, and blah blah blah...., and after listening to all the so called "advice" I literally started to panic, oh no, how, my son can't really read that well and always forgets words that he had learnt and "comparing him with some kids", oh my god, he is so far behind....... be'cos of the fear and worries, I really lost my rational thinking and wisdom and forgotten what I always believe in as a montessori teacher, it's true that when a person in fear, they can't just think right, all thru Ezekiel's pre-sch years, I have not added any additional academic programmes for him, no enrichment classes.......etc just enjoy your pre-school years, and I really didn't do much academic work with him to prepare him.


So I thought now I must "DO" something abt it, and hence started my really "intensive training and drilling" With such an attitude to teach him, it's definitely no fun for him, and the final results was horrible, soon he can't take it he just went blank, he was unable to receive / absorb anything being taught, and then now I had a new worry, worrying that he had learning disability due to his celebral pasly or dyslexia. At this point of time I really can't take it anymore, I finally cried out to Daddy God, I give up, completely give up and surrender. I told God, I really can't do it, and don't know how, I just want to throw the whole thing to Your Mighty Hands, U Do it for me, now it's Your problem, not mine, and I told God, that U mentioned in Isaiah 54:13 - that our children will be taught by U, and I asked Him to be the One to teach Ezekiel, and I started to go slow with him, and thank God that no stress from sch too. Not long after that, I can see that his mind suddenly opened up all of a sudden, his able to learn pretty fast and remembered things being taught and his interest in learning has resurrected and Praise God he is progressing very well, at times it surprise me to see A.......how come he knows how to do that har, who taught him that. It is my greatest joy to see this wonderful results.


Recently mid-year just ended, and I got back his report card, and to my amazement he did pretty well for his academic, it really must be God, I also managed to talk to Ezekiel's teacher to know how he is in sch, and all Glory to God she said they he is considered good academically, and it's was such relief for me, and in all his class tests results were pretty good, it's like only 2 or 3 mistakes =]


From this I really learn that sometimes in our mind we know what to do, but when suddenly the thing that's close to our heart is not going the way we want we start to worry and simply forgotten what we know in our head, and unknowingly we become very paranoid over it, as I was preparing this blog, I was listening to pastor's message, he shared that "when we failed trying to do it our way, when WE TURN TO HIM, HE WILL TURN IT GOOD FOR US", the important thing is not to feel guilty over the stupid mistakes we make when we failed, but to turn to HIM and give the problem to HIM without feeling condemned and guilty, pastor always says too, let HIS Words not just stay in our head, but let it dwell in our heart.
