New blog

Dear readers (if there are any left),

I have created a new blog : Petrusian Chronicles

Since it has been such a long time already, I've decided that I would leave the old blog as it is, so that it may be a 'time capsule' where records of my past is kept. This blog will be left as it is after this as a record of my past.

If you would want to carry on reading my posts and following my updates, please proceed to my new blog with the link given above.

God bless.

Birthday

Hey readers (if there are any left)!!!
I'm finally blogging again after a really long break...
Anybody miss me?

Anyway, I've just been back from my church's PAG youth camp in Genting...tiring...but rested well...
So many things happened within this interval when I was off blogging...will update about all those things next time, kay?

But anyway...this first post after so many months is specially dedicated to my sayang, KATHY CHANG YI SHUEN.

Her birthday was...two months ago...on 30th October...one day after mine...this is really late...but, at least I did it...at least its up in my blog, right ? ;D
So now, she's officially 15!

Muax!

And my birthday, was on 29th October, just one day before Yi Shuen's brithday...

Just had a small scale celebration with my family, nothing much, really, but at least there was something, though =P

~Christ does not want us simply to be good, he wants us to be saints through and through. However, he wants us to attain that sanctity not by doing extraordinary things, but rather, through ordinary common activities. It is the way that they are done which must be uncommon--- St. JOSEMARÍA ESCRIVÁ ~

Save The Environment

Finally I'm back to blogging after such a long break from blogging.

Well, today, this post is going to be about the winning short video clip of the 'Jerneh Friend of Green Malaysia Short Film Competition' organized by, well, Jerneh. The theme is 'Energy Conservation'.

My group consists of Danial(Videographer/Editor), Jenar(Graphic designer), Zi Xiang('Psychologist') and me(Main actor).

Actually we didn't know about this competition at first until Pn. Doris introduced it to us and in the end we had to do it because it became part of our assignment to get 20 marks for our exam. All the other classes whose EST teacher is Pn. Doris had to do it also. She made t compulsry for all of us. Didn't want to do it at first. But in the end we still did it one day after school. Can't remember when it was, quite a long time ago, a few months I guess.

Danial mostly came up with all the ideas of filming techniques. He provided all the cameras, did the editting and gave the idea of the stop-shot technique and most of the other techniques too. Zi Xiang, Jenar and I basically just acted and helped out here and there only, nothing much else. We finished the filiming, editted it and sent it to Jerneh, not expecting much.

Only one or two weeks ago we received the news that we won. Danial and Jenar went down to Pavilion for the award ceremony. My group won first place for the under-18 category. Nazneen's group won second place too. Congrats! We got a camcorder, certificate, trophy and RM3000. Bangga! XD Thank God for his blessings! Seriously didn't expect to win. We didn't even try to win. We just did our best because it was our assignment and that's all. Didn't think about winning at all.

The news was even repoerted in Bernama. Check out http://www.bernama.com/bernama/v5/newsgeneral.php?id=430846

Here's the video. The accompanying song is 'How To Save A Life' by The Fray.

~God has blessed us; may all people everywhere honour him. --- Psalms 67:7~

Back

Hey readers!

Sorry for the really long one-month-plus hiatus.

Had so many stuff going and and had been very busy.

The August exam just finished about a week ago.

I will update about the happenings in July soon. So many things going on but not enough time to update. It will be a really long post, I think.

Stay tuned and God bless! ;P




~A lamp from the LORD is the breath of man; it searches through all his inmost being. --- Proverbs 20:27~

Notre Père

I just found a wonderful video on Youtube.

It is a video of the Lord's Prayer sung in French.

The music is slightly slow but very expressive. Just enjoy the melody although you don't understand the lyrics.

Anyway, here's the translation.

Our Father in heaven (Notre Père qui es aux cieux),
Holy be your name (que ton nom soit sanctifié),
Your kingdom come (que Ton règne vienne),
Your will be done on earth as in heaven (que Ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel),
Give us today our daily bread (Donne-nous aujourd'hui le pain qui nourrit),
Forgive us our sins (Et pardonne-nous nos offenses),
As we forgive those who sin against us (Et à ceux qui nous offensent, nous pardonons),
Do not bring us to the test (Garde-nous d'être tentés),
But deliver us from evil (Délivre-nous du mal),
For the kingdom, power and glory are yours (A Toi seule le règne à Toi la puissance, la gloire pour toujours).
Amen.

(Not in the Lord's Prayer,but part of the song, below is the rough translation)

Que l'ésprit de vérité vienne sur nous maintenant - May the spirit of truth comes to us now
Pour que nous puissions te ressembler et savoir prier - So that we can be like you and pray

~But when you pray, go to your room, close the door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And you Father who sees what you do in private, will reward you. --- Matthew 6:6~

A Day In The Library

Hey guys!

As usual I was in the library yesterday with a few friends for the weekly librarian duty...

Had nothing much to do so my friends and I started playing with my phone and in the end we ended up taking lots of pics...btw, phones are totally banned in school now, for some ridiculous reasons that don't even make sense and they even issued a circular for that...but I'm still taking it to school occasionally...don't worry, no bad intentions...

These are the pictures taken last week which Shi Hui has been telling me to post again and again...

Lots of ss pics...This is Shi Hui's new look with her hair straightened...

Take 1. failed.
Take 2. blurr.

Take 3. just nice.

And these are the pictures of me and Shi Hui pretending to be so hardworking...it's just for the Pendidikan Moral Kerja Amal homework which we have to take pics of ourselves doing whatever we write about in the homework...

Pretending to be recording something

Pretending to arrangde the books which have already been arranged a long time before

Putting the books back in their places

Ok, done with the Pendidikan Moral work...and now back to taking ss pics...

Me and Shi Hui, and the girl in the middle in Yen Ling who is camera-shy...this is the only pic that she took with us...but with her face covered...

Why so shy?
Skylar rocks?

Lunchtime

I think Shi Hui was doing her Pendidikan Moral work also by taking pics of herself crushing tins and recycling them...or is she just posing?

Think before you throw

Both of us

Shi Hui thinking she's very pretty...just joking...but her new hairstyle looks so much better...

And these are the pics just taken yesterday...

Take 1. not too bad.
Take 2. picture perfect.

Shi Hui taking pics of herself when I was doing something else and thinking she's very pretty, again...don't take it seriously...haha...

Found this poem on the notice board outside the library...read it...click on it to enlarge...

Seriously so true...dark-coloured people will always be black their whole life, but white people will have different skin colours from time to time...so why call black people coloured? Haha...

But we are all uniquely created by God, coloured or not, right? So be proud of your colour!

~Then the Lord God took some soil from the ground and formed a man out of it; he breathed life-giving breath into his nostrils and the man began to live. --- Genesis 2:7~
