The Climb Lyrics

Song Writers: Alexander J. ; Mabe J.

I can almost see it...

That dream I'm dreaming,

But there's a voice inside my head saying,

"You'll never reach it"

Every step I'm taking,

Every move I make feels,

Lost with no directions,

My faith is shaking,

But I, I gotta keep trying,

Gotta keep my head held high....

There's always gonna be another mountain,

I'm always gonna wanna make it move,

Always gonna be an uphill battle,

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,

Ain't about how fast I get there,

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side,

It's the climb...

The struggles I'm facing,

The chances I'm taking,

Sometimes might knock me down,

But no, I'm not breaking...

I may not know it,
But these are the moments that,
I'm gonna remember most,yeah,
Just gotta keep going...

And I, I gotta be strong,

Just keep pushing on~

Cause there's always gonna be another mountain,

I'm always gotta wanna it move,

Always gonna be an uphill battle,

Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose,

Ain't about how fast I get there,

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side,

Oh It's the climb~

______________________________________________________

This song's lyric represents how I feel now.

No matter what difficulties or challenges I'm going to face,

I hope that I have the determination to overcome them and walk on.

I hope that I won't give up easily.

Sometimes when I feel useless and bad about myself,

I know that someone hasn't give up on me.
And that person is God.

I confess that I had drifted away from Him this few years.

I pray that He can draw me closer to Him so that He can lead me and guide me onto walking on the right path.

Everytime I struggle in making certain decisions,

He will answer my questions.

His words will appear to me either during the Sunday service or through people around me.

I pray that I can be more committed and faithful to Him.

Say Hello To Mickie~~

Hey people~Meet my brother from another mother (and species) lol lol lol~

The day that we prepared to bring him back to Bintulu^^ (o4.01.11)
The piece of thing that he is on is his "diapers" for absorbing urine~

This is Mickie~~HE was born in Sibu on 22nd of November 2010. He is a male, obviously~

His nickname is "Mao Mao" which comes from "mickey mouse"~ Get it? Miss him lots!!!!!

He is a gift from my cousin, Ivy. He is not a pure breed pup. His daddy is Maltese and his mommy is Shih Tzu~ He looks more like his Dad though.

Aww.....Look...He wanna escape from the shoe box~~~

A picture taken before going back to Bintulu~~I know...He's so TINY~~~

Reached his new home and get his first toy ^^ (13.01.11) Actually his first toy was a rubber chew bone~He doesn't like it very much~~~But he LOVES CJ7. It was mine and now it belongs to him. Evil Mickie snatching away my toys. T_T *note that he's smaller than CJ7. I remember him stumbling on when playing with CJ7 cause he's lighter and too weak to drag it. =_____=

Brought him out in his basket^^ He was chewing my finger. Didn't hurt cause he only had a few baby teeths back then~ (14.01.11)

*act cute* He fell asleep not long after I took this picture~

*Good morning^^*

Now he's bigger than CJ7! He stil loves bullying CJ7. (18.03.11)

This photo is taken early in the morning. (09.05.11) When I'm at home, he'll push my bedroom door every morning and chew everything that is in his sight~Once, he bit off the edge of our Encyclopedia >.< Owh ya~Did I mention that he also swallows everything, and by EVERYTHING, I mean EVERYTHING- papers, strands of hair, cardboard pieces, etc...Well, now you know. *It's quite interesting to look at his poop and see what foreign items are in there.

Please ignore the messy background and my out-of-bed-look. Compare his size with the first picture. He's HUGE!! Well, actually not that big. His furs are long and fluffy, making him look FAT.

EMO Mickie~~(30.05.11)

This picture and the pictures below are taken by my sister, Lily, on the 1st of August 2011. Mickie was sick on that day. He suffered from sore throat (That's what the vet said). He rested in my sis's room. And that, beside him, is an eyeless Eeyore. Sis took out the eyes cause she's afraid Mickie might choke on them.

Poor Mickie =(

Adorable!!

Another cute picture of Mickie for your eyes to feast on. He's ok now. Haven't seen him for a few weeks already. I wonder if he has grown even bigger these few weeks....hmm.....

Until next time, Toddles!!

Midnight.....

Am sitting in front of the laptop, nibbling on seaweed biscuits with the loud music pumping into my ears. Suddenly thought of the conversation that I had a few days ago, with 2 of my seniors, who also takes Early Childhood Education. We'd chatted for approximately 2 hours at the hostel kitchen, in the middle of the night. The conversation made me even more determined and helped me recall the main purpose of taking this course, that is to provide children with the best environment and knowledge so that they can have the right mindset and guide them to live their lives to the fullest.

Other than that, the conversation also helped me know more about children with additional needs. After 2 sessions of class about this area, and also from the conversation with C.Y and T.W.T, I grew to become more interested about it. Both of them shared a lot of their personal experiences and opinions. It was a rewarding and meaningful talk.

Below are my own thoughts and feelings. You can either disagree or agree with what I say. *NO OFFENSE*

Well, I became very sensitive with people labelling children with special needs by calling them "retards", "weak" or "slow" and calling their situations or syndromes as "sickness". These words are actually very strong. It is inappropriate to be used on these children. What if the certain child heard you calling him names? These children have their own thoughts and feelings, just like all the other children. Some of them just haven't learn to express themselves through words.

I dislike people saying " These disabled children are slower than the normal children." What is meant by "normal"? Does it mean that you're calling the special needs children "abnormal"? Is it their fault for being special? NO! They are all creations of God and they deserve equal love and care like all the typical children.

Do not label a person when you don't even know him/her well.
Try to think of the consequences for a change.

Make the children's lives on the earth more meaningful and joyful instead of making their lives miserable and bitter.

Toodles!

Bliss^^

Don't proceed reading if you have an empty stomach right now cause there are going to be lots of food pictures in this post.
(Photos might be a tad unflattering due to low quality camera and poor photo-taking skills.)

Hey ya! Again, I wanna thank my friend, Caroline, for lending me her broadband, else,I'll still be sitting at the kitchen, trying to connect the wireless like an mad lady.

Went to Twin Star BBQ Steamboat House with my girls in the evening.
This is the first time I've ever been there.
We went there by rental car and reached approximately 6.30 pm.

There were varieties of meat, vegetables, seafood, etc for us to choose from.
Let the pictures do the talking~

Past Tense

Starting off with a vain picture of Pei Szi and me. Can you guess what this post will be about?

Hey there.....

It's really hard for me online due to the inefficiency of the wireless.
Thanks to a friend for lending me her broadband ^^
Been writing posts for the past few days but failed to upload the post on my blog. =(
And that's why I entitled this post as "Past Tense" as I'm going to write about the incidents that happened a few days earlier.

WARNING: This is going to be a long post~So run off and get yourself a drink or popcorn.

My friends and I participated in 30 Hours Famine last weekend. This program was first organised by World Vision International. "World Vision is a Christian relief, development and advocacy organisation dedicated to working with children, families and communities to overcome poverty and injustice." (Google up If you want to know more about it ^^)

It was a new experience for me. I heard about this program from a friend of mine. It was held from the 6th to 7th of August 2011 at our institute (Methodist Pilley Institute). Around 260 people participated, both from Pilley itself and also people from other places.

Interesting activities were carried out. The most memorable part, for me, of the 30 hours Famine was that when I took the role as a "pregnant mother". As it was the beggining of the game, I was guided to the "bidan" to "give birth". That feeling was so REALISTIC!! It felt as if i was really delivering a baby. I was laughing and sweating away throughout the whole process.

I am grateful and pleasured that I have the opportunity to join this program because I've learnt a lot and gained informations about the cultures and situations that people of different parts of the world face. They struggled for their live and strive on even when they are poverty-stricken just so they can live another second on this world, with or without their family beside them. They suffer mostly from starvation and illnesses. It is quite easy for us to get the food that we want and also seek for medical help when we're ill but those less fortunate people don't have the opportunity to live a healthy life.
Nowadays there are news about people taking away their own lives by commiting suicide, leaving their family, mourning for their lost one. This is how fragile our life can be. Remember that evenlife, so why not we reach out to them and at the same time think about how precious our lives are? If you failed once, doesn't mean that you'll fail forever! A single failure cannot determine your future. Give yourself a chance to stand up and give it another try. Some people yearn to live a healthy life, so why not reach out to those in need and at the same time, think about how precious our lives are?

Hi!

Shoutout to ya'all!
