Last days

Are we really leaving in the last days? As in really really the Last days as it is said in the bible?..

If we really are, then most of us are in deep sh*t

I wonder....

I do wonder sometimes, so many preachers preach about the Grace and Mercy of God - so much so that they leave out the other aspect of God, His righteousness and Justice - Which means His Judgment and wrath.

Too Long

Shit its the mid of August already and my last post was somewhere in July, Hahhaa. Well i guess i was just too busy and tired to blog up till now (Still I'm busy with catering and work)

But i just wanna pop some pictures of my work place, food, and the people i work with (well some)

Apple Crumble -my own recipe

Tiramisu

This is Linda, the Assistant Restaurant Manager

This is Phee, in-charge of the Western section
He's from Myanmar

Left: is Khai, He's in-charge of the beverages
Right: Kak Supiyah - Excellent in local cuisines

Well that's all the time i have for now...Ciaos

Really...

Really..I have no idea what to post about nowadays.. It seems like i do not tell my life's story that often or the thoughts that runs through my brain.

Then again if i were to post something, it would be about Victoria...

Oh i know, I've been working out my internship at this restaurant call CintaRia - no its not a malay restaurant, its a western cum local restaurant that serves both simplified western and local cuisine, it is relatively new in the food industry; however the owners (family) have been in this business ages ago.

Well what's interesting of my internship in this Restauarant is that almost every weekend i have to produce 2 new recipes for sales. So far i have created a 4 course set meal (not as good as i hoped it would be) and the other was Prawns Pesto Oglio pasta, mushroom spaghetti and french onion soup. My next task would be to create an oxtail soup (local style) and also some desserts.
----------------------------------------------------------
On another note..i do miss my dear a lot; also i miss home a lot, i wish to go back home, working life is not all that exciting..and my time table is really restricted *sigh*...

Hope to see you soon Syg

She..Victoria

I never thought we would cross path in my 4 years of studies here in KL, i never thought that i would one day be with someone who is a chindian; and loving every single beat of it.

Victoria, i can't thank you enough for all that you have brought to me. You have in this one year's time brought me so much joy and happiness, worries and anxieties, laughter (no tears yet) - but it might just come this Sunday-. 23rd of June is a very special day for the both of us, it was the day we became a couple. I have no regrets knowing you, neither do i have any regrets choosing you.

Even though it has only been a year since we (really) met, but it does seem like we have known each other for a long time. In this one year plus, i dare to say we have been through a great deal of trials, patients, tolerance - learning to accept each other the way we are, learning to understand each other and to love one another.

If i may say, you have already made me a better man. I praise God for such a person as you, His beautiful creation. You have given me a boost in my self-esteem, given me confidence and encouragement when i am down.

Just as i thought that i would finally be closer to you now; God decides to bring you further from me. He has His own plans for you that will be greater, you must trust Him. This will be a test for the both of us, and if we continue to keep our eyes on Jesus, at the same time be transparent and honest, loving each other - i believe and know that we can pull through any obstacle, trials, and hardship.

Remember, nowhere is too far for me to find you, not distance can stop me from going that distance for you. Once i have given my heart to you, it is yours to keep and i will never ask it from you. I can't find a word that can express my love for you, except for these 3 words (I love you). I will miss you, and i will be waiting for the day i see you again.

Ahhhh....

It's 1.30 am on a Wednesday morning, the taste of freedom is near (i think), it will be my final 2 papers for my degree in Hotel management. How fast fast fast time flies....

I bet all my friends are still banging their heads and scratching their tables as they read through some 500 power-point slides as we all prepare for our final 2 papers - Food Sociology and Organizational Behaviour- KILLERS.

I have to say tho, power-point slide is a brilliant invention, because it is useful especially on last-minute revisions. Having said that, if you have no clue of the short-pointers in those slides then it is a dead and useless tool.

Thursday's an off day, meeting up with Ms Leow and then Friday is the final of all final moment, my oral defense for my dissertation (thesis)....its coming that freedom...fingers cross, hope that every thing will turn outt Good...


Time for BED

1 Timothy 4:12

We all know this verse fairly well (its popular), many youth workers and Pastors alike use this particular verse to encourage and "lift" us youth up. So it seems! But i reckon there is somehow an error and to a certain extend a misguiding use of scriptures by many.

Here let me explain a little....

1Tim 4:12 says "Let no one despise your YOUTH, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity." So, the question is "What's wrong with using this verse to boost, encourage, lift young (age) Christians up?" well, first we need to look at the context and situation that the youth is in. When we use scriptures like this, we must always ask

1. "What is the purpose of me using this scripture?"
2. "What is the full context of that particular scripture?"

If we take a look at the previous verses from Verse 11 says "These things command and teach"
So what are "These things" that Paul was referring to? Lets look at the verses before that :

Chapter 4, Paul instructed Timothy to teach sound doctrine, but verse 12 also has a general command that is to be an example in all out life's conduct, speech, thought and faith.

As a matter of a fact, these scripture calls us to be godly and how we should and must conduct ourselves. Isn't this how we should live as Christians? Since it is accounted to us for righteousness when we believed in He who raised Jesus up from the dead, who died for our offenses and for our justification (Romans 4:24-25)
