For once, I'm glad to be called an aunty

I always dread teens calling me aunty. But last night, I thank God for that title because somehow, it carries with it a degree of respect. Well, here's what happened...


I expected to have a fun night with my church youth members. After having dinner, we walked back to the car. On our way there, suddenly a guy came and shoved *Ichiro san. I thought this guy was his friend..I mean, perhaps he is fooling around or something. Turned out that he wasn't. He almost punched Ichiro, but thank God he didn't. Its not that Ichiro can't defend himself. He was hoping that the fella would make the first move so that he could tear him to bits. Er...Ichiro's almost 6 feet k and the offender is small built. After the shoving, the rascal walked towards *Fergie, and started to ramble on how he has left 3 government offers for her. And the funny thing was this guy wasn't even her boyfriend. He was just a friend to Fergie and a former school mate. Anyway...


So Kenneth butted in and threaten to call the police on the basis that the guy is acting violently. It didn't really scared him off though ..perhaps a little bit. Kenneth too was eager to throw a punch on the bully....Then I gathered my courage, and spoke in authority that I am a lawyer and what he is doing is wrong...hoping that he'll back off and flee. But that didn't work either cause he kept on making a scene.


Aiyo...how to end this la. I started praying in my heart asking for God's divine intervention. At last, I went to the guy and gently spoke to him in Iban. I don't really remember everything that I said but I know that I said that I'm 32 and you are still very young. You still have a long way to go in your life. This matter you're angry about, its just a small thing and you're making it into something big. Enough already. Its just a small thing. What did we do wrong to you? Etc.....And I have to bring Fergie back home cause her parents have given me the responsibility to do so. Etc, etc.


And at last, he said sorry to me, and said, what should I call you? Sister or aunty? I wanted to say sister (such denial) but I humbled myself(for tonight) and say that he should call me aunty. After that, he left.


What an ordeal!! I am still shaken by the incident. Well, who would have known that there is authority that comes with the aunty title. But actually, I believe that it was God who led me all the way.

Book spree & CD Spree!!

Yesterday, went gift hunting at Doulos. Supposedly to be gift hunting, nangga2x, bought stuffs for myself. Hehehe..... So at Doulos, I bought 3 books. 1 book is a gift for my coming X'mas party. 2 books for myself. All for RM24. Stinking cheap right? If I buy these books at the local bookstore, it'll cost me somewhere around RM25-RM35 per book. Yeah....dirt cheap. When I thought I was done with my book spree, I came across one section of the ship where they have an offer. 4CDs + 1 doulos bag for RM20. Or 3 books + 1 Doulos bag for RM20. Wowsers! How can I resist!! Off I went & managed to grab 4 CDs. American made CDs are of good quality man. One of the Cds that I picked was a Christian rock group called Decypher Down. I stumbled across this band while I was copying songs to my MP3 player from my bro's PC. I like what I heard & I always wonder how is their full album like. Needless to say it rocks & when I read throught the lyrics of 'Breathe Again', I

Green Chords-State Level 2009

Image
This is the reason why I drove all the way to Sibu. To lend support to my brother's school marching band, the Green Chords. Before this, I was never a fan. Err wait..before this I've never heard of marching band at all. Of course this all changed after my sibs joined Green Road Sec. School's marching band. See the guy with the tuba. That's my younger bro, Calvin a.k.a Ju. When he first started, i.e. at the age of 13, he was selected to play the tuba. Mind you, he was the sole tuba player for 4 consecutive years. Imagine, he's controlling the bass side of the band...all by himself. Mind you, among all of us siblings, he was never musically trained. It was because of band that he begged my mum to enroll him for piano class..at the age of 14, which is quite late..just to master theory.He plays the tuba..and he has no musical theory background. Apparently, most of his band mates don't have any music background either. Imagine, they were taught to play the instrument

Give grace to Elizabeth Wong

Elizabeth Wong's nude pictures scandal has been a big hit recently. Some groups were sympathetic towards her, seeing it as a grievous unfortunate event. But some looked at her with scorn and demands her resignation...they remind me of the Pharisees in the Bible. Why should Elizabeth resign because of something which is not wrong legally? Her privacy was invaded. She is a victim of one sicko out there..whoever he is, I hope the authority would get him and bring him to justice! As for her morality, that is between her and God. For Christians, telling a white lie is equal to the sin of killing. Lusting for someone in the mind is equivalent to committing adultery. Sin is sin. So whoever has no sin whatsoever, let them be the 1st one to cast the stone at her. God in His infinite mercy, has poured out His abundant grace upon us. Likewise, lets be gracious towards Elizabeth. Malaysian Christians, let us pray for Elizabeth Wong. That God would redeem and restore her. God is able to use our
