life in college?

last night i saw a friend's personal message on his msn. It goes like this, "YIPEE!!! Im starting college!!!"

It brought me back when i was going to enter into college. I actually cant remember how i felt when i was going to enter into college. Because i desperately want to get out of college... HAHA!!!
the amount of assignments...the stress...the sleepless nights....
oh man~ don't remind me that...
but i bet degree will be worst...
ROAR!!!
well, its part of life...
so just try to enjoy it.

mummy??

Just came back home with mummy from Mid Valley.
(mom wants to do some shopping...)

What happened was,
there was this split second i don't know where has my mom gone to...

We were at the handbag section,
she was looking around at the handbags....

At the same time,
i was trying to entertain myself by looking around...
try to find something interesting to see....

The moment when i turn my head back to where my mom was,
she wasn't there anymore!!!
SHE DISAPPEARED!!!
VANISHEDDD!!!
OMG!!!!

hahaha....
chill lar....

so as i always do - take advantage of my height - tried to look for her....
and you all know WHATTT!!???

remember we're at the handbag section,
which means it is the lady's section,
and which also means...
everyone there are mothers and young ladies lar!!!!


AND I CAN'T FIND MY MOM!!!


chup chup, is not i cant recognize my mom...
tell you why...

1st...
they are all the same height!

2nd...
so many of them have the same colored hair!!!
that includes hair style too....
(gosh~ man...whats with all the mothers..)

3rd...
she was already at the other section which is quite far away
and that time my specs was not on with me...



so yes!
but at the end i still managed to find for her =P




but seriously,
for that split second my mom was thinking,
"MAAAAA~~~!!!! WHERE ARE YOU????"

and

OMG!!! WHY ALL THE MOTHERS LOOK SO SIMILAR FROM THE TOP???!!!!


HAHAHAHA!!!!

many things....but one life...

sometimes do you ask yourselves,
"Why is life like that?"
"Why can't it be more simpler?"
"Why can't i be 'superman' and do all the things that i like?"
"Why am i limited like that?"

so many whyssssss....
why??
well, you can ask God =P



There are many things in life you would like to do,
but sometimes you've to come to a point...
where you only can choose certain ones.
But why?
Why not you try doing everything you want, and see how it feels like =P



A person that likes to take up responsibilities,
can be said as a good thing,
but it might be a bad thing.
Why?
Cos later too much responsibilities until no time to rest and no life...
Plus, love ones around you will be worried about you.



I've been through that path of round,
still trying to get myself out of it,
cos i know i'm limited.
Not referring that God is limited,
but in life,
we cannot do everything that we want,
so....
just choose what God want us to do =)


is that simple,
but like some people say,
say is easy, but doing it is hard...


well, that's life...

choice...

life is all about choice...or rather choices...

what choice u make determines your future, what will happen next, and yourself...

some choices have to made...

would u choose to be happy or sad?
would to choose to accept the failures in your life or not?
would u rather give up your life or live on a happy life that God gave u and expects you to do?

lots of questions.... lots of decision to make...
cos there are so many choices to make...

Ah Beng lame jokes =P

I shall bring some "lame" laughter to my blog...

Gonna share a few Ah Beng jokes to you all =)



---------------------------

Flight Time

Ah Beng wanted to find out how long it will take to fly from Kuala Lumpur to Tokyo. So he calls up AirAsia and asked, "Sir, can you please tell me how long it takes to fly from KL to Tokyo?" The AirAsia staff replied, "Just a minute". Ah Beng replied, "WOW!!! That is fast! Thank you very much!." and hangs up the phone.

---------------------------

Computer "Help" Button

Ah Beng had just bought a new computer and was using it when he encountered some problems. He decided to use the "help" command after some tries. Soon after, he became very irritated and called the computer retailer for support.

Ah Beng: "I pressed the "F1" key for help but it's been over half an hour and still nobody has come to help. ???"

---------------------------

Is Ah Beng smart?

Ah Beng went to a comedy show on Wednesday. The comedian got the whole floor laughing. But Ah Beng had a serious face all through the night. Why didn't Ah Beng laugh?

Ah Beng took 3 days before he could understand the jokes. So he started laughing only on Saturday.

---------------------------


-THE END-

Hope you all enjoy =)

Multimedia Authoring 1

Desktop Publishing's first class

Today was my first class on Desktop Publishing.
Apparently, my lecturer is a young woman
and she speaks very softly and gentle.
But don't play play... heard her expectations/standards on assignments are very high...
I better not take this subject lightly =P haha!

So in the middle of our class, lecturer asked us to do a small exercise by sketching out a trademark/logo that describes ourself.
After we've finished, we're suppose to present(explain) it to the class =)
btw, this class only got 8 students including me... small right?



So this is what i got... =)

"PL" represent my name, Paul Leong. As my passionate and interested in 2 areas. Firstly, is music which you can see a "music note" that connects to the "P". And secondly, is video editing which you can there is like a film clip art that is attach to the "L".


and I've to say the rest of my classmates did very well as well =)

So yea! That's all...
btw, I'm not a good sketcher
but i don't dislike sketching =)



p/s: i think i would love this subject =)
p/ss: i know theres a lot of things to do but i just can't get my hands on them...ROAR!!!

an instrument...

Last Saturday, 12 July 2008, my church was having a Youth Rally event as it was one of our largest youth event. There was a band performance by "A Day At The Zoo". The event itself was held in a hall that we never had our youth service in that hall before. As i knew there was a band, i wanted the drummer to use a better drum set, not saying my drum set is the best but the range is quite high, and is comparable to my church's main century hall's drum set which is a Yamaha Stage Custom. =P

So i've to transport my drum set to church and i did it on Friday afternoon as the event is on Saturday evening.




and this is how it looks like when it into my car =) if you say a drum set is big... a Proton Iswara can fit the whole drum set. =P

took me around 20minutes to dismantle everything and move it into the car... but i took my time and did it slowly lar =P




and this is how it looks like when it was set up in the hall...


took me around nearly 1 hour to fix the drums back to position and tune them =)






right after the event... obviously i've to dismantle everything again~~~~ and move it back to my car to transport is back to my house...



and this is how it looks like after is dismantle everything and put them on the floor =)

as i was dismantling the drums, i was asking myself...and do i have to play such a complicated and troublesome instrument??... HAHAHA!!!!



but well~ i still love playing drums! =)

seasons...

"seasons" - by Ryan Teoh

Don't you find it true that our lives are sometimes like seasons of weathers?
Sometimes you find comfortable and nice during that season,...
but...
sometimes you don't in some of the seasons...


but don't care what season are you in, you still have to continue on your life...
yet but not least is that, God is always with us...
tho it may seem He is not doing anything...
but He is definitely looking at us...

when you're...

*life is seriously tough*

anywhere, anytime, & anyhow...

when you're a student, you'll face problems as what student will face...
when you're working, you'll face problems at your work place...

when you're already facing 1 problem, other problems will come at the same time...
when you're already feeling frustrated over 1 thing, other things will still come and make you even more frustrated...

when you're going through all this hardships, will you ask God why is my life like this?
when you're in need, will you ask God to help you continue to trust in Him?

when you're facing difficulties, what would you do?
when you're facing troubles, would you continue to trust God?

when you're feeling down, would you ask God to make you strong?
when you're feeling upset, would you ask God to comfort and be with you?

when you're facing all this, did you ever wonder why God want to put us through all this?
when you're...
facing problems...
feeling frustrated...
going through hardships...
facing difficulties...
feeling down & upset...
...,
did you ever wonder what is God's purpose by putting you through all those circumstances?


press on...
press on...
press on...
keep pressing on...
press on...
press on...!!!!

please be patient...

hey readers and friends...

please do be patient yea... updates will be coming soon! VERY SOON! promise! =)

August Rush

August Rush
Release: 2007 November


Just watched this movie yesterday and I've to say this is one-of-the best movie i ever watched. Tho its not like those exciting fighting kind of show that i usually like to watch. But seriously,... this movie's storyline is awesome! *thumbs up* =)
thank you Su Yen for introducing me this movie, no regrets watching it...

Is not just about those typical BGR love story, but also love for the child and people that loves music... that actually found out that music can actually find back their love ones...

[a very very rough summary of the story]
A drama with fairy tale elements, where an orphaned musical prodigy uses his gift as a clue to finding his birth parents.



HAHAHA!!!! so how rough do you think this summary is? =P

Those who love music MUST WATCH this...
Those who like love stories MUST WATCH this...
Those who don't like music nor love stories also MUST WATCH this!

Must read this...

got this from a friend's blog, Phoebe...

What going on?...

Frankly speaking, this week I've been forgetting things that im suppose to do. And I'm seriously!

Okay!

Firstly...
Tuesday, i was suppose to follow my youth pastor, Richard, to do discipleship with my 3 cell members (Joshua, Gene Lih, and David) in the evening around 5. It totally slip off my mind until my youth pastor sms me and tell me what time he is coming to fetch me. And i went like "AH CRAP!!!" when i received that sms... and i ended didn't make it because i have many things to be completed.

p/s: Sorry Richard that i couldn't make on Tuesday. Will try to make it next week.



Secondly...
Wednesday, theres is College Student Council meeting as usual at 10:30. And as you can guess, it slipped off my mind also...until Jonathan, the president of the Student Council, reminded me the night before... and you can guess again... i went "OH CRAPPP!!!!!" yea... so i asked Jonathan to give me a lift to college and he told me he'll come at 10 plus.
but somehow, duno how, God knows... i went and set the alarm clock at 10am. And that morning i snoozed the alarm clock twice...which means 10am it rang, i snooze it...10:10am rang agan, then i snoozed it again... around 10:15, Jonathan called and said he is coming now... and i went crazy like a mad feller getting ready. And i made Jonathan waited for me =(
AND we were late for council meeting just because of me "stupidity"...
Haih...

p/s: Jonathan (the president), so sorry again.... i'll be punctual next time ='(



Thirdly...
Wednesday also, Dance class that suppose to be at 3pm. And i totally forgot about it until Su Yen mentioned about it in MSN when we were chatting the day before it (Tuesday).

p/s: Shua, I'm sorry if you're reading this and knowing that i actually forgot about the dance practice that i promise you to come. Please do remind me next time =(



Forthly...
Thursday, I am suppose to have early morning breakfast with my youth pastor, Richard, and ALSO AGAIN!!! it slipped off my mind until he smsed me the night before (Wednesday night) to let me know what time is he coming to fetch me... and as usual again, i went "CRAP!!! im forgetting so many things!!!"

p/s: Richard, I'll try to remember it next time...



Fifthly....
Paul: I have enough of this!!!
Paul: Whats wrong with me?!??!?!! Anyone can tell me????!!!

I don't know whether is this the side effect of having high fever (that actually went up to 103C) for a week...


p/s: I apologize to everyone who are related and was affected by my "temporally-lost-memmory" =(

p/s: Thank you for everyone that reminded me! Appreciate it =)

Enjoy... Appreciate... & Thank you God!

nothing much to say about this but enjoy being in this council =)







My drum set
i think this is 1 of my biggest thing in my life which i've been praying for about 1 half years.
Spend total of rm4,000 for this big baby drum set... hehe...
All i can say is that I'm really blessed by God for this
tho i had to use my own bank money first...
but...
i actually got this with a good offer because it was suppose to be rm6,000
as it was a display set
and guess what...
i don't think this model is producing anymore, so called limited edition? hehe =P

Drum set info:
Gretsch, Catalina Birch.
(click here for more info about Gretsch drums)
is a good brand... can guarantee you that! its comparable with Yamaha...




Drum class!
I really have to say thank you for my mummy for being willingly to pay for my drum fees every single month as its not cheap...
for those who learn piano, its about the same price. and its true...
and of course have to thank God for providing the finance for my family to allow me to continue my drum classes =)
It has been tough going through all those grades but I've to say I'd improve a lot from it =)
*heading straight to Grade 8!!!*





Nikon D200 DSLR
This is like the second biggest thing in my life... 'cos it requires lots of money also~ haha!
Well, but this time i didn't pay for it... my dad did 'cos he wanted it all this while =)
or maybe God paid for it? must be.... hehehe
Photography rocks! and its fun...and its cool...and its enjoyable...
anything you can think of! =D
as you can know I'm addicted to it =P






my sister =)
I don't know why, but I'm thanking God for giving me an elder sister...
tho we usually quarrel but hey, we're like good friends now as we grew up..
or maybe as i'm growing up? hehehe =P
she's a sister that will buy me things once in a while which depends on her mood...
she's a sister that will fetch me back home... if its on the way...
she's a sister will wake me up if my mom ask her to...
she's a sister will bring me out for lunch or dinner and pay for it which also depends on her mood...
1 thing seriously good about her is that she'll always ask me what I want for my birthday every year... without fail =)
Thank you Che! and love you!

and...
she's a sister that i always say to her: "che... you're getting fatter lar!" =P







Troy, my sister's husband
He was once my cell leader...
but duno somehow, God knows why and how he became my bro-in-law.
I was wondering last time when he came and visit me is because of me or my sister....hmph~~
but without doubt, Troy is definitely a good cell leader that brought me up to be a cell leader, a good servant of God... He teaches me many things... discipled me...
And he was the one that thought me how to edit videos at the first place...
see how wonderful is God's plan =)
Thank you Troy for everything!!!
you're not just a bro-in-law to me, but also a brother to me =)
He is also my body builder partner =P but he is so much crazier than i do
just saw him last Sat, his arms are freaking huge like nobody's business... haha!







THANK GOD MY SIS FOUND A LIFE PARTNER!!!!
hahaha!!!
i was so afraid nobody wants her or God didn't plan anyone for her =P
HAHAHAA!!!
but frankly speaking, I'm happy for her =)

and lastly,
wana Thank God for this family!
and for my parents...
and i don't think with just words can describe how great my parents are =)
Love you daddy mummy!

Work~ am currently teaching drums as a part-time job to earn some side-money. Having 2 students at the moment. but i need more students!!! anyone interested?? =)

Drums~ as usual, still serving as a drummer in church... now im currently in Grade 5 and planing to take the exam either this year or next year =) hope so... hehe
