off to elsewhere

Next stop will be Regensburg, Germany. A train ride of 6 hrs + a change of train and I will be in Regensburg, where I'll spend 10days.

Hopefully, weather will be fine - no floods or freak tornado.

Thank God that my colleague has a car, which means no need to take bus all the time - not that the public transport is like M'sia's. You know this timing of this trip is just right. Why? Course all other colleagues that stayed at my area have gone back to M'sia. Yes, I'm alone now, the only M'sian in 1km square. Nearest colleague is 20mins of walk away. So this trip will help me not to dewell in the thoughts that everyone is in M'sia but me.... :(

Change of environment will do good to me, I know. and HE knew about it, there for the late trip to Germany. Thank you Jesus! Perfect planner.

Audition

Small part of a book I read said 'You can audition your plants in the garden'. I was duh?? Audition the plants? How? What for? Apparently, audition your plants means 1st you are not sure if they will look good in in a certain part of you garden. So, you try plant them at spot 1 then at spot 2 and spot 3 (maybe). Then you decide if spot 1, 2 or 3 gives the best looking garden you'll have. What a way to spend your time.....

Then I wonder if God also audition us..... Or are we the one that audition God? See if He fits in situation A or B best huh?

Rambutans!


Can you see the price for a kg of Thailand rambutans? No? It's priced at 29.90Euro per kg = RM131 per kg. That's the price at a stall in Munich, Germany.

Thank God I don't have to pay that much for a kg of rambutans in M'sia.

not there

tomorrow is my sister-in-law's wedding. She's the eldest of the family. all of us are very happy about tomorrow. i bet she is very excited & nervous. unfortunately, i won't be there to be a witness & bless her marriage.

She has been a blessings to us in many ways. Supported us in our plans to get married early, loan us her car for few years already.

I pray that God will be the center of their marriage.

difference

yesterday, my colleague told me that it was average of 15-20C last year in the same week as this week. but this year it's 0-5C, that's a huge difference!! i wish last year temperature is the same now.....

ever since i got here in austria, the weather website is one of the sites i visit every single day, sometimes few times a day. and most anticipated part of the evening news on tv is the weather report. kinda sad huh? no lar, it's interesting to know & watch how the weather is influence by the condition many many miles away, over few days.

I just saw a truck load of snow drove past outside my office window. Since I'm homesick lately, it reminds me of a huge bowl of ice-kacang on wheels...... weird.... ice-kacang during late winter/early spring?

ok or not?

what u do when ppl really against or opppose what u stand for or your choice?

conform to majority? or be the unique one?

pray for the ppl against you or pray against them?

you extend God's grace to others? or you need grace?

choice is in your hand.

Too soon

looks like i rejoiced too soon abt spring coming. this week is pretty cold, low of -10C & high of 5C. apparently it's normal trend to hv a reverse - cold, warm, cold, just before spring or spring is near. hmm.....

Thank God the sun came out the last 2 days. it was cloudy & gloomy for 4 days!! it did affect my mood though. PTL for sunshine!!
