Talentime~~~

A few hours ago, I was impressed by a funny commercial in Malaysia, and I thought it was made in Malaysia, but unfortunately, it was Thailand...Anyway, I searched it on Youtube and found out there was a good director, who named Yasmin Ahmad...This woman died last year, and only that time, I heard her name...Therefore, I searched for her directed film, and one of them is Talentime...

Talentime was made in Malaysia (of course...) and the story is really interest...An Indian guy, who are deaf and dumb, falled in love with a Mix-blood Muslim girl...However, in Malaysia, if we marry a muslim, we are "forced" to be a muslim...As a result, most Chinese and Indian in Malaysia won't choose Malay as their wives or girlfriends...However, this Indian guy didnt mind of this matter, he kept on connecting with the muslim girl...After a while, his mother found out and scolded him...His sister was supported him...

From this film, I feel that Malaysians are pathetic...Falling in love with Malay/Muslim is same as betraying your religion...Because of this rule, we are always saying that married a muslim is betraying your own race...From this aspect, you can see that Malaysians are pathetic...I can only choose our own race or Indian or other races instead of Malay...It doesnt make sense at all...

Anyway, I dint mean that I falled in love with Malay or Muslim, but I strongly disagree that marriage = changing religion...Let's say, one day, I fall in love with Muslim girl, but I dont want to betray my God, so between the girl and God, for sure, I will choose God, but the problem is there...How about the girl?

PS: This is the fact...Unchangable fact...I repeat, I am not interest in Muslim girl...

Life = Uncertainties~~~

"I don't know about tomorrow, I just live day by the day"

Yes, we don't know the future, we can't even know what will be happened next second...Life is full with uncertainties...Only God knows these uncertainties...

Recently, I was told that my second brother is getting marry this coming June...When I heard it, I was surprised because now it is already April, how come they have enough time for the wedding's preparation? Well, I knew something was happened, and I knew what was happened...After confirmation with my mom, well, my guess was correct...Thats a fact that hard to accept but I knew this day will come...Anyway, I was confused whether I should go back or not, since I have plan in UK, which is job hunting...

After receiving few opinions from my friends, I think I should attend the wedding and come back to UK AGAIN after a few week...I changed my way of thinking that I treat this trip as a graduation holidays, so that I can easily accept the fact...Hilarious right?

"But I know who holds tomorrow, and I know who holds my hand"

Uncertainty is thing that happened at an unexpected time...As a christian, only I can do is praying to the Lord who "holds tomorrow"...He will guide me according to His will...

PS: I have to pray for my brother and his fiancee, hope their marriage can last forever...I am quite worrying them since they are not married in Christ...May God bless them from now till forever...

PPS: I had booked a round trip ticket back to Malaysia...See you all there, my hometown friends...

Heidelberg, Germany~~

Well, if you have my facebook, you probably knew that I went to Germany last week to attend the student convocation and spiritual convocation. For this week, I learnt about how to study bible...We were taught by the preacher and preacher-to-be from UK in theoretically, after that, they gave us some "housework" so that we can practically use the methods we had been taught...

Observation:
Read through a passage in the bible, observe the passage whether it is complete story or not, and then get as much story line as we can...

Analyse:
After observation, analyse the passage or versus by using Where, Who, When, Why, What and How.

Explanation:
Using bible versus to explain bible versus is the best explanation...

Application:
Applying examples or telling how to do so that people can learn the lessons in the passage and apply it into their lives...

On 28/03/2010, I didnt sleep for the night because the daylight saver (one hour set forward), I took a bus to the airport...It was a cold morning and the road is turning into silence mode...It was just 6.30am...I reached the airport about 9am, and I waited for Johnny (preacher-to-be) since we were travel buddy to Germany...

We took Lufthansa Airline to Frankfurt, Germany, and I found out, the aeroplane is very small, just like the MAS small plane travel from Penang to KLIA. Anyway, I cant complain much about it, although it was really small and spaceless. After an hour and a half, we reached Frankfurt airport at 1pm. Then we waited for a shuttle bus to Heidelberg for 2 hours.

Because it was sunday, the street was very quiet until I can hear the bird's singing...Johnny tried to call someone to pick us up to the church, but there were no one answer the phone, so Johnny decided to walk to church with luggage (burdens)...After 20 minutes walk, finally we reached church. It is an apartment, with 2 rooms and 1 dining room. It doesnt look like a church but in bible says that, when they are 2-3 persons get together and say "in the name of Lord Jesus we pray" Jesus will be there...The one who opened the door for us is Sis.Siglinde, who is Pr.Ko's wife and she is German...She speaks well chinese (impressive)...

After a few talks and introduction between us and other brothers and sisters, we had dinner together and prepared for the next day. At that night, I realised that I need to prepare a presentation (sermon) for the student convo and they arranged me on the next 2 days...1 sermon in 2 days...Fortunately, I remembered I wrote a sermon in my blog (Wall & Bridge) so I took it and elaborate it...

The next day, we woke up early in the morning, and Johnny took me to the city "street" in Heidelberg...Its located beside a river and surrounded by mountains and it is beautiful...You can see it in my facebook photo album...After that, Sis.Siglinde brought us to the uphill because there is hostel there where our convocations were hosted...From there, I can see the river and the city...

During the week there, I met a lot of members who live in Europe country such as Germany, Holand, Austria and Italy. They treated me very nice (of course, they are my bro and sis) and the food was very delicious (Taiwanese Beef Soup Noodles!!!). I was also scheduled to do some duties such as cleaning toilet and kitchen, washing plates and etc. Well, I am not complaining because they are actually giving me chances to get blessing...Then I found out, in Heidelberg, all the citizens have to catagerise the wastes and rubbishs and throw it into different bins...Impressive again, they are environmental protectors and we should learn from them...Therefore, I learnt what wastes are catagorise in biomass, plastic, papier (paper) and etc...Bones are not biomass, it was general rubbish, because its hard to dissolve bones...Interesting?

During the week, I saw many mix-blood children at the church, which I never see so many at the same time...They are cute...haha...

Anyway, my ticket to Germany is worth to its price...I gained a lot and knew a lot of friends...Hopefully I can go there some days in future if and only if I manage to find a job in UK...XDXDXD

PS: The effect of the week is I woke up automatically at 8am....haha...
