Not so mayhem after all but mayday is still needed

I have too many things in mind. Some are important and some are just trivial matters. Once again I lost my word in writing and orally. It could be due to the pathetic fact that I have not been engaging myself in good chat for a long period of time. I missed talking, and many other things. It is getting gloomy...

Halt.

On the bright side, my new house is comfy and I feel so bless to live in this house. The price is amazingly cheap! According to people who live in this area. Other than that, I have read 5 good books so far! (An achievement?) That is because I have no one to talk to. -.-''' But it changes the way of me looking at things and to try out different approach. Heck la, reading really makes one grows! It is definitely a smart investment. No doubt on that.

Note: For those who are paying income taxes in Malaysia, the the book relief amount is 100% of what you paid for books purchase from bookstore. :)

Weakend & Strongend

" Oh Yes! Yes! Yes! Tomorrow is Saturday! "

It shows how joyful am I in welcoming Saturday. Last time. The situation is different right now. At least, at this moment. I feel bored of staying at home during the weekend. Lethargy-ness is eating me up. I just feel the urge to get out of the house. What is happening? Is this another changes? In term of lifestyle?

How to turn weakend into strongend? I want my joyful Saturday back! Fast!

Emo... =(

Marching Month of March

I ushered this month by updating my facebook status to Sherene must march macholy in this marching month of March. Have I accomplish that? Well, the only thing I do know now is that today is the last day of March. Thankfully I'm not working yet or else I be caught in quarterly jam, preparation of first quarterly report.

I have not been to any welfare home in my whole life. Oh, apathetic-ness! That is not true. It is just that I don't have the chance to do so. But, I got the chance of doing it this month! On the 20th, the ladies from my church here visited a drug rehab in cheras which I find it saddening on me because I had class on this day. T.T Never mind, I visited an orphanage, House of Matthew in Gombak the next day. ^^v The kids were on holiday so we didn't have the chance to see them. We repaired furnitures and painted the gate etc. Sherene paints! It was fun la! I got suntan though.

The painters:


In case you are wondering where are the guys, they are with us, but just not in this pictures.

Attention!
(Left) ACCA self-study student (Right) ACCA full-time student.
Who say accountants are boring people? Our life is full of colors.
In the name of love, we paint!

Last week, the youth leader here asked me to help out in youth camp. I was given administrative and treasury role, which fits me well. I... dare not give my commitment to help out in the camp. Reasons: 1) There will be comm meeting that is for sure. But I'm not sure is that how things get done here. I would then have to skip a lot of meeting as I have weekend class. Sigh. 2) My exam is approx 10 days away from camp. Should I go? The question I should ask is will I have the peace of mind to join the camp?
My weekend classes are taking away too much of my time for God in church. Just too much! However, it motivates to get rid of this coming papers. The end of weekend class. Hopefully!

There are 2 persons that I believe it is not just mere coincident that we meet.

Number one.
I met her in inti. She hangs out with my ex-roommate most of the time. Right now, they are roommate. She is my classmate for one paper too. She first came in touch with Christianity during National Service. Awesome!!! She is truly interested in knowing the stories in the Bible. She talks to God every night. She said that she can't sleep well if she doesn't say a pray before bed. (Me too!) She even wonders will she be punish for praying to 2 different gods. I've been trying to get her to care group and church. She is fine with this! The barrier now is, our darn weekend class. So should I then spend time with her telling her Bible stories? And bring the gospel to her eventually? She is searching for the true God, that is for sure.

Number two.
I met her in my church youth camp more than 5 years ago. Yet, last 2 weeks ago we met again. Cool! She seems reserves, tired of life, dislike of the past and lost in direction. Err, I don't know how true is my observation. We will see. She told me not to tell so and so that she met me because she doesn't like to listen to those 'stuff'. She meant the gospel. I plan to text so and so to tell her that I'm with her initially. You know the excitement of meeting into people of you wouldn't expect to? Glad that I choose to pay attention to lecture and not texting so and so.

God, what do you want me to do with these friends? May you speak through me. May they hear You. Time is running short! There is a very high chances of us not in the same class next sem. Teach me how to love, how to care. I need the wisdom to bring about Your words to them. Teach how to live my life as you will it, to be Your good ambassador.

Next is my youngest sis birthday but none of her sisters are at home to spend time with her. However, she is equally busy. She has competition on her birthday. =.= And got good results, as usual. So, ah jas if you are reading this, I wish you happy birthday again! Double blessing, double joy!


Let me introduce a new friend here. She is Michelle, another pretty Ipoh girl. A friend from RBS 2006 which is my badge. I was so glad that we spent one Saturday for lunch and shopping. I know a little bit more about her. ^^ Our waves length is quite the same too. I wish I know her much earlier on. She is leaving to UK this May. Argh! Time is running short! Now, we still have April and May to gel-gel. I want a sticky one.


I met up with hun chee. A senior and friend of mine in inti. She gets to travel around as she is working as an auditor. I always get one free snack during meal time as she will pay for it. Aww...I just don't want my body to digest those snack. It keeps me warm. Thank cute! Talking about travelling around with the minimum expanse as most of the expenses are covered by her company, I would want this kind of job too. Auditor?


I love friends.

I have a lot more to pen down here. Just too many in my head. But I'll stop here at the moment.

Sherene must march macholy in this marching month of March.

Have I accomplish this?
I would say fairly okay. There are room for improvements and good points to pick up. :)

100!!!

I came to realize this is my 100th post!!! Great!

I want to thank those who have read my blog all this while , those who have dropped some lovely messages and even those who think this is a plain boring blog.

Results for Dec 2009 sitting of ACCA examination was released yesterday.

I passed, ALL! Praise the Lord everyone! This is my first time passing all attempted subject in ACCA journey! A miracle! Shame on me that I let myself believe such a miracle could not happen! Hey, you have no idea how scared I was okay? I cried one day before results day. =.=

The miracle,

F5 Performance Management
This is my 4th attempt. Grr! but got more than just a pass Phew! A big relieved!

P2 Corporate Reporting
I did about 80/100 marks during exam. I have no idea how to tackle the last question and I don't even have to time to think. Honestly, I sucked up my tears because there were many people in the hall. =.= Then I came back crying. T.T but, I got just a pass. I am thankful that I don't have to look at all those annoying IASs again, for now. Given the same question paper to me right now, I don't think I know how to do. =/

P3 Business Analysis
This paper was fairly okay. I rushed through the whole paper though. I got just a pass as well.

From the results above, many of my comrades said that I am so lucky. Luck huh? My lady luck? Nope, I will still say, this is A MIRACLE!!!

Do you see a smile on my face now? I am sure you did! =)

Dad once 'prophesied' that I will do better in final level, which is call professional level. In this case, half of his 'prophesy' is fulfilled. lol

Are you wondering why am I so happy for getting just a passed? Well, before you make any not so wise judgment, go around and ask people from business field and listen to what they have to say about ACCA.

And now, the race goes on. I am left with final 3 papers to graduate. If I passed all again this time round, I will graduate in August 2010. I am looking forward to it! Oh, come on, come on!

No one can ever stop me from saying Thank You

Whenever I make a statement about the goodness of God in my life or even when I see myself progressing in my walk with God, the next events that follow suit are those not Christ-like events. :(

Indeed, it is so hard to just maintain. The weakness of my flesh, the world and the devil make a good catalyst to set me apart from God.

Does that means I should stop praising God in response to such incident? But how can I hold myself from giving thanks to God, singing songs and hymns to Him and even tell my self to zip my mouth when all the words and deeds of love which left me in awe fiercely gush out from my lips? I cannot help it but to boast of His mercy, grace and joy to people I meet and to God Himself.

This race must go on, in and out of season. With the help of God, victory is in my hands. I'll surely make it to the finish line. Thank you, Lord!

Pray and press on sherene!


Thank You - The Katinas

Just a little while longer I wanna pray
Can't get You off my mind so I came to say
Thank you Lord, just for loving me, alright
Many times I do forget
Every need that You have met
Oh thank you Lord, I know You're showing me
You are there when I am down and out
You're holding me, Your love is so amazing
Oh it changed me

Here I am with all I have
Raise my hands to worship You
I wanna say thank you, oh thank you
For everything, for who You are
You cover me, You touch my heart
I wanna say thank you

I could have died in my sins but You saved me
Didn't have any hope at all
You give me peace divine, strength to carry on
I should have been the one to pay
But instead You took my place
Amazing grace it's more than just a song
Even though I don't deserve Your love for me
You look beyond my fault and You showed me mercy

Here I am with all I have
Raise my hands to worship You
I wanna say thank you, oh thank you
For everything, for who You are
You cover me, You touch my heart
I wanna say thank you

I wanna say thank you for sun
Lord we thank you for the rain
Thank you for the love You gave

Here I am with all I have
Raise my hands to worship You
I wanna say thank you, oh thank you
For everything, for who You are
You cover me, You touch my heart
I wanna say thank you



Religious awe is the same organic thrill
which we feel in a forest at twilight,
or in a mountain gorge.
