Time Flies

“What is my problem with time huh? If you see properly, most of my blog posts are about time”

It is just like a few days back to Penang, though the truth I have been back for almost 1 month.

Good time flies, it is really true.

My holidays in Penang started with a lecture delivered to the Unit 25 members. Personally, it is more as a catch up moment for me to be updated with the current news of the society I am be with since the past 5 years.

However, a few great time before this that happened before I came back.

As soon as I finished the Chemistry exam, me and many friends went for steamboat in Yuan.

Besides that, went to Mid Valley after a long time didn’t been there, with Ming Khai to buy presents, besides meeting Tiong and Poh Chai as soon as before we are going back.

Taken before going back in KTM. Can you see anything abnormal?

Before sending Ming Khai back, I remembered Zi Hong, Chang Hwa and me went for Bah Kut Teh and also to Jusco for a movie. Pretty much a simple outing, with Chang Hwa you just don’t expect extraordinary..as in that few lines just being repeated for many times without saturation, only exaggeration =P

Wee was staying with me for the past few days in my room, got to see his “marketing life” more and I enjoy reading a few books of his besides listening to his view points and ideas.

Thanking him for the Think Big Act Small book, I managed to add in as a co-idea during the lecture with members despite I just manage to cover 3 chapters of it only.

After the lecture, I attended the Leadership Training Camp and Inter Unit Competition trainings.

A strong feeling tell me to STOP and let the younger leaders to lead but just can’t resist from returning as a dumped retired old man.

STOP SIN HUI… STOOOOOOP

I am clueless whether I am so passionate (which I will not personally say so) or because rather just want to meet members which I really love seeing their adventure in this society.

In short, Kepoh (busybody), just let it be that simple la.

Help out in the VAD Youth Interaction.

Undeniably, it can be one of the most successful events HQ had ever held ever since I join RC.

They succeeded in terms of attendance, participation, preparation as well as activities we have together.

Can you see the SMILES =) despite them being under the rain and going through all this?

Despite of the heavy rain, when I asked whether we should continue, strong voices of YES can be heard from all members.

After that event, VAD 21 (a voluntary group of RC adult members) turns into a feast-colic.

Barbeque in Renee’s house, dinner at Pauline’s house and Christmas party at John Toh’s house.

Indeed it is an exciting experience, although it can be awkward to sit together with so many adults ( I am still a young man, if you had wonder).

Luckily, Win Sern, Jennifer, Eric, and Fong Xiang who always make my day by being part of the younger community, as they sometimes can turn the conversation into a big laughter.

Besides RC, it is nice to find old-kaki of the SPM and STPM fellows too.

haha for SPM macam 1 only, Esmond! Despite of his
busy schedule for adult development, he spend his time for IUC too.

Besides, got to meet Kenneth who also join me in VYI and Radin who plan to meet in IUC training too.

Zhen Fei went with me for the Chingay Parade, besides many joining the Seoul Garden barbeque to celebrate Eu Tiong’s birthday.

 Sau Fei: Everytime when Sin Hui is back sure steamboat one =)

Having fun bringing Eu Tiong on my bike to Zhen Fei house and spent few more hours seeing them playing PS II.

Clueless and helpless to find a way to join in, because I thought it just take extra-ordinary mind to comprehend that complicated process to play the game.

I am so lazy to think anymore, perhaps no more.

All in all, holidays can be fun but can be harmful too if spent too much on “decomposition and decaying activities”.

For me, so far so good!

Time

Ding dong ding dong…there goes another month..

Btw, I am having my Chemistry Test tomorrow, am I not? So, what on Earth am I doing here?

Well, this is definitely not procrastination. I have stared at that Chemistry book for nearly an hour and now it’s just a resting of eyes, literally =).

Haih…time flies..whether it will be a good thing to happen or not.

My sister and Juniors finish her PMR…freedom is really all there  for them now!

SPM is coming so soon..as well as STPM..All the best to those going through it..Hope you people are still standing and breathing right there..haha hopefully this heal you a bit.

The Juniors in INTEC will almost complete their 1 semester in INTEC. Don’t say if they felt it short, me too! I still can capture every single thing in my MMS and now, I can even start preparing my luggage to fly anytime next year after June. Hooray!!!

Oo…Dharma Talk has come to its end  for this year. I will never forget the first time I encounter the Shah Alam Buddhist Temple from the intention to conserve electricity by using stairs all the way to the hospitality shown by the helpers in the café, administrators, and definitely the Sunday school teachers.

I really miss those time helping out in Sunday school. At first, I felt so small and terrified as I am so new to Buddhism, what some more to teach the children which are even better than me. However, I just totally forgotten before remembered again that Buddhism is alive in every man’s soul as how we breathe in and out without realising. That gave me some courage to go. Indeed, diminishing the worries actually let me enjoy and experience more.

This reminded me a storyoften retold in Buddhism.

At one moment when Buddha was meeting his disciples, he lifted a flower above his head and showed it to his students. At that moment, all his disciples felt so tense amusing why Buddha did that. However, out of all, a disciple of Buddha just smiled so sincerely to Buddha. Buddha replied his smile. And Buddha said, “The benefit of this flower has been transmitted to this student of mine”. Many Buddhist followers were still wondering what the metaphor was laid behind this story.

 Thinking excessively will put our mind thinking more about the intention more than to enjoy the flower

In fact, the message said was that usually human minds often think too much thus missing many joy and bliss just right in front of him. The lacking in mindfulness has put them into their self-delusion that leads to suffering and disasters. Not thinking too much and just focus at the subject will keep us learn and discover more.

Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu!!

 What is meant by searching for happiness when happiness is just right there in front of our eyes? Its the matter of appreciation to what is already there for us

What a nice feeling after get to write here since my last writing for my IELTS.

Cheers people out there and always have fun in life.

New room home make my journey in INTEC more conducive =)
