Tomorrow is the last day of my 2 1/2 day course at IAB (Institut Aminudin Baki), Sri Layang, Genting Highlands. I arrived om Sunday. This course started yesterday and will end tomorrow afternoon. I thought that this place would be as cold as Kundasang but it actually isn't. Some of the staff here say that it isn't as cold as 10 years ago. I think it's because of the Global Warming that is currently happening.
I'm using a public computer which is in the hostel lobby....as i type this...there is a security guard and a few hostel staff watching TV..so ada kawan juga lah. Before I came here, my mother-in-law told me that the hostel that she stayed in was haunted. I don't know which hostel she stayed in because there are two hostels here. A few years before her pension, she came here for a course and she had her own experience with the unnatural. I'm not really surprised since this place is surrounded by the forest. I haven't experienced anything weird and I wouldn't want to....palis-palis...!
Tomorrow we'll be going back to KL. I'll be going to my in-laws house tomorrow. But befor that i'll be stopping by SOGO to see what is on sale. I hear it's still having sales...! I just gotta get a new wallet...koyak-rabak already my old one..hehehe...
I took some pictures of my trip to Genting yesterday...will post them up when I get back home on Thursday.
Ba...got to get some rest for tomorrow...we got quiz tomorrow. Good night peeps! Sweet dreams!

Things Aren't Always What They Seem
Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family.
The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement.
As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.
When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, "Things aren't always what they seem."
The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.
When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field.
The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you have let this happen? The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die.
"Things aren't always what they seem," the older angel replied.
"When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it."
"Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem."
Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You might not know it until some time later...

Inspiration
BEFORE YOU SPEAK… LISTEN
BEFORE YOU WRITE… THINK
BEFORE YOU SPEND… EARN
BEFORE YOU CRITICIZE…WAIT
BEFORE YOU PRAY…FORGIVE
BEFORE YOU QUIT…TRY
Your words, your dreams, and your thoughts have the power to create conditions in your life. What you speak about, you can bring about.
If you keep saying you can’t stand your job, you might lose your job.
If you keep saying you can’t stand your body, your body can become sick.
If you keep saying you can’t stand your car, your car could be stolen or just stop operating.
If you keep saying you’re always broke, guess what? You’ll always be broke.
If you keep saying you can’t trust a man or trust a woman, you will always find someone in your life to hurt and betray you.
If you keep saying you can’t find a job, you will remain unemployed
If you keep saying you can’t find someone to love you or believe in you, our very thoughts will attract more experiences to confirm your beliefs.
Turn your thoughts and conversations around to be more positive and power packed with faith, hope, love and action.
Don’t be afraid to believe that you can have what you want and deserve.
Watch your “Thoughts,” they become words;Watch your “Words,” they become actions;Watch your “Actions,” they become habits;Watch your “Habits,” they become character;Watch your “Character”, for it becomes your “Destiny”
So…….To prevent any obstacles…….
GET OUT OF YOUR OWN WAY! Enjoy every minute you live!!
I got this from Louis Pang’s Blog, in which he got from Arden Khoo’s Blog. I find it very inspiring and I hope you are inspired as well.

Busy Week!
This week was surely by far the busiest week since my transfer to my new department. There was the audit visit by Internal Auditors from Jabatan Akauntan Negara and meetings at Tawau.
Phew..! Glad this week is over....had a good sabbath day today...and I'm looking forward to another week ahead. Here are some pics from last week that I should've uploaded earlier. These pics were taken at church and my home.
My dear Grandmama. This photo of her was taken during last sabbath's potluck after church service.
My sis Pammie. Taken at church. She's always ready with her mega watt smile when there is a camera around..heheheheee...
My Kim posing for the camera...
A candid shot of Kim
My little Elsa...Pammie was behind me making faces which made Elsa laugh.
Have a great weekend folks!! And have an equally great week ahead! :)
