Doulos

Today after lunch, i went to the Doulos ship that is town from October 12 (they arrived yesterday) until the 26th. There were so many people on the ship and it was SO hot, i sweat like a pig just now.

There were many things to look at, besides books. A cultural display was going on but i couldn't really get a good look at each booth coz it was too crowded and i felt suffocated.

At the books area, i think kids really will really be happy in there coz there were abundant of kiddie books. What i really wanted was a study Bible, and there were some that caught my interest but i didnt end up buying it coz it was either in a King James Version (KJV) or New King James Version (NKJV), which in my opinion is quite hard to understand. What i specifically wanted was a study Bible in a New International Version (NIV) but there weren't any so i ended up buying a Dictionary/Thesaurus/Atlast book hahaha. But i think it was worth my Rm24.00..it's thick, about 7cm and the maps are in full color. I also bought some religious CDs - Greg Long, Talley Trio, and The Martins.

It was kinda fun going to Doulos again with my family after a long time. The last time i was on the ship with them was probably more than 10 years ago.. i was still a little kid and what i remember was that i will only get myself those sticker books. When i saw sticker books on the rack just now, it kinda brought back some kiddie memories :-)

It was a heated discussion that we had on facebook on religious issues. No, it wasn't between Christian and another religion but it was between Christian denominations. It all started by this boy, who at the end got a taste of his own medicine. As an Adventist, i respect other religion and also other Christian denominations. I don't go here and there proclaiming that i am in the right path and tell everyone to be an Adventist just because i believe i am in the right religion. Everyone, no matter in what Christian denomination they are, be it Catholic or protestants and also other religions (Muslims, Hindu, Buddhist) they all believe they are the right religion in the world but that doesnt give you the right to go condemning other people's belief. So yesterday, this is what he posted on his shout out box: He is a Catholic, so indirectly he is saying that other Christian denominations are FAKE. He claims that God gave him visions and voices to go and save the human race from ...

Kuching getaway (Day 1)

Image
I have been wanting to get away from the hectic work life and studies since may. So this is it. A domestic getaway to Kuching, Sarawak :) Our flight to Kuching was at 8am on AirAsia. We arrived early, at about 9:15am. 10 minutes early. The first thing we did was went to the hotel to confirm our reservation of room & have breakfast. We were really hungry by the time we reached the hotel. The area that we are staying didnt have that much of eateries nearby. The hotel's frontdesk lady said we have to walk 10-20 minutes to the nearest eatery. We were searching for Laksa, by the way.  After walking not 10, or 20.. But 30 minutes!!!! We found an eatery at Chinatown. It was a small coffee shop (i forgot the name) but it served kolo mee and sarawak laksa. So we had our breakfast there. After that we walked somemore and went to sarawak plaza, tun jugah and centrepoint. I was surprised that the malls here are not like the ones we have in KK. I could walk around each malls in less than 5 ...
