Just Checking In
A minister passing through his church in the middle of the day,
Decided to pause by the altar
and see who had come to pray.
Just then the back door opened,
a man came down the aisle,
The minister frowned as he saw
the man hadn't shaved in a while.
His shirt was kind a shabby
and his coat was worn and frayed,
the man knelt, he bowed his head,
Then rose and walked away.
In the days that followed,
each noon time came this chap,
each time he knelt just for a moment,
A lunch pail in his lap.
Well, the minister's suspicions grew,
with robbery a main fear,
He decided to stop the man and ask him,
'What are you doing here?'
The old man said, he worked down the road.
Lunch was half an hour.
Lunchtime was his prayer time,
For finding strength and power.
'I stay only moments, see,
because the factory is so far away;
as I kneel here talking to the Lord,
This is kind a what I say:
'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN. DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY, BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY. SO, JESUS, THIS IS JIM CHECKING IN TODAY.'
The minister feeling foolish,
told Jim, that was fine.
He told the man he was welcome
To come and pray just anytime
Time to go, Jim smiled, said 'Thanks.'
He hurried to the door.
The minister knelt at the altar,
he'd never done it before.
His cold heart melted, warmed with love, and met with Jesus there.
As the tears flowed, in his heart,
he repeated old Jim's prayer:
'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, LORD,HOW HAPPY I'VE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND EACH OTHERS FRIENDSHIP AND YOU TOOK AWAY MY SIN. I DON'T KNOW MUCH OF HOW TO PRAY, BUT I THINK ABOUT YOU EVERYDAY.SO, JESUS, THIS IS ME CHECKING IN TODAY.'
Past noon one day, the minister noticed that old Jim hadn't come.
As more days passed without Jim,
he began to worry some.
At the factory, he asked about him,learning he was ill.
The hospital staff was worried,
But he'd given them a thrill.
The week that Jim was with them,
Brought changes in the ward.
His smiles, a joy contagious.
Changed people, were his reward.
The head nurse couldn't understand
why Jim was so glad, when no flowers, calls or cards came,
Not a visitor he had.
The minister stayed by his bed,
He voiced the nurse's concern:
No friends came to show they cared.
He had nowhere to turn.
Looking surprised, old Jim spoke
up and with a winsome smile;
'the nurse is wrong, she couldn't know, that he's in here all the
while everyday at noon He's here,
a dear friend of mine,
you see,He sits right down, takes my hand,
Leans over and says to me:
'I JUST CAME AGAIN TO TELL YOU, JIM,HOW HAPPY I HAVE BEEN, SINCE WE FOUND THIS FRIENDSHIP, AND I TOOK AWAY YOUR SIN.
ALWAYS LOVE TO HEAR YOU PRAY,I THINK ABOUT YOU EACH DAY, AND SO JIM, THIS IS JESUS CHECKING IN TODAY.'
If this blesses you, pass it on. Many people will walk in and out ofyour life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart
May God hold you in the palm of His hand and Angels watch over you.

Mr. Navin's Birthday Party
Well, I’m sure everyone who went to Navin’s party is writing about this, but oh what the heck, I have nothing better to write about. Well, on Saturday, 20th September, my friend Navin had a birthday party. The idea of the party was to go to Cineleisure for a movie and dinner, then play around there until everyone goes home. Well, this post is about my point of view on the party.
Around 3:00, my mother and I left to go to Navin’s house. The plan was to follow Navin to Cineleisure, then follow him back home where my parents can fetch me there. Well, finding Navin’s house was no problem, except for the fact that my mum had to call Navin’s mum 3-5 times to get directions (“Oh, so I turn left after the Opal sign? Wait, there is no Opal sign. Oh ok, so I turn right after the Shell station? Wait, there are two Shell stations here...). After much brainstorming to find out how to get there, my mother finally found the house and dropped me there to meet with Navin.
After reaching Navin’s house we wasted no time. Navin, one of my friends named Eugene (or Jin or Ee as some people call him) and of course I were taken to Cineleisure by Navin’s mother. On the way there, we picked up a dude named Adam. Other then the fact Jin and I had a rather embarrassing conversation in the car, it was an ok drive.
Once we reached Cineleisure, we saw Claire/my advisor, Travis, Jeremy and a lot of other people. (Note, this is being written from memory so it’s a bit blurry). After awhile, I saw Sue, Xin Yen and Amelia. While waiting for a few friends to arrive, Navin’s mother bought the tickets for the movie we were to see. After 15-20 minutes, everyone had arrived except His Majesty David Lim Khye Xian and Daniel Tee who were taking their own time. During the mean time, our little party group watched this dude acting like a retard (I do believe they call it “Break Dancing”. Ok just kidding, the dude didn’t do that bad, I liked his dancing, well at least some of it) for charity.
After His Highness David and Daniel Tee arrived, we hanged around a bit then went up to the theatre. Navin’s mother handled the presents and bought popcorn and drinks for 17 children (Amazing woman). We picked up or drinks and popcorn then headed off to the theatre to see the movie named “Mamma Mia!” I ended up sitting next to my Advisor/Claire and Dileep and without popcorn (Oh well). The movie was seriously funny/ridiculous/amazing/weird/entertaining. The movie contained loads of songs from the music group ABBA (popular from the 1970’s till the 1980’s). Songs are still stuck in my head... (You can dance...you can jive...). I liked the songs Mamma Mia, Dancing Queen and Super Trouper the most.
After the movie, we headed to the Arcade in Cineleisure. I can remember David and Travis playing pool while the girls headed off to the karaoke booth. Dileep and I decided to fight Jin and Adam in a match of foosball (And we won:). Jin and I shuffled between singing in the karaoke booth and playing foosball. Finally, Jin and I challenged Claire and Xin Yen to a game of foosball. I can’t remember who won but I can remember Sue joining in to fight Claire and Xin Yen. However, we heard the song Dancing Queen playing in the karaoke booth and quickly joined in to sing together. Navin and Jin acted like rock stars while singing (And they made quite a good impression).
After a long time of hanging around in the arcade (and getting our ears blasted by the girls singing Avril Lavigne- Girlfriend), one by one our friends started to leave. Soon, everyone had left for home except for Eugene, Jeremy and I who were meant to follow the birthday boy back to his house. Once back at Navin's house, Jeremy had to immediately go back home. Jin and I helped open Navin's presents while Navin lay in bed sick (To much partying for the little boy...). I got Navin chocolates and a book while Jin got him...something (Forgot laa, as I said, this is from memory). Around 10:00 – 10:15, Jin left. And the rest is just history.
Oh well, I know it’s long, and most of you people didn’t actually read it... but I guess you could just call this blog my diary.

Proud To Be Malaysian
Some people might know that today is Sept 16. Actually, everyone knows today is Sept 16, but there are some people who don't know what's so important about Sept 16 (Go read newspapers la) Well, today, the opposition leader in our country is supposedly going to take over the country. Just saying, no matter what happens, if he does succeed or if he does not, just remember that Malaysia is still Malaysia.
No matter what happens, Malaysia is a beautiful country. And I'm proud to be called a Malaysian
Note: September 16 is actually Malaysian day, a day to commemorate the joining of Sabah, Sarawak, Malaya, North Borneo and Singapore as one. Coincidentally, it's also Lee Kuan Yew's birthday.
Another note: Yes, I know, this is a boring blog.

Poetry stuff
Just some poetry (Or atleast some rhymie words which sound nice and make me look smart) I made A long time ago.
Forever A friend will last
They've been with you since the past,
But some are fast,
To Run away,
When things arent okay
That's the time you start to pray
For all your problems down the drain,
No more sorrow, no more pain,
Just wanted to say,
Everything will be okay,
If you always have a friend,
Till the beginning to the end.
---------------------------------------------------------
Well, I never said it would be good.
---------------------------------------------------------
When you're looking down,
When you start to frown,
Just try to forget,
All your useless regrets,
And live for tommorow,
For time can't be borrowed
--------------------------------------------------------
Kishen's kittens went on a mission to kill Kishen while in the police station teaching sick patients how to make mittens.
--------------------------------------------------------
Never got that far.....
