Preparing to teach at camps are challenging, exciting and yet, scary. You have no other alternatives but to trust in the gentle leading of the Holy Spirit, and pray that He increases while the "I" diminishes. However, that's no excuse not to plan. Planning is all about being made in the image of God and the wisdom He provides us with. NOT planning is just plain dumb and disrespectful to God.

"Alive! It's Alive!!!"
My PowerBook G4 DVI came back to life after 4 months of going in and coming out of 'coma'. At the end of last month i decided that it needed professional help.
In comes Switch@TheSpring (or CGComputers) and they even sent it to Penang at a cost of nothing. They love their Macs there.
It's a logic board problem and there is a problem finding a replacement. So, my Mac is on the 'transplant' waiting list. Meantime, i shouldn't use it in high temps and have to handle it with gentle, tender, loving care.
So far, i've had it on for an hour and it is still running. So, fingers crossed and we'll see.
Meanwhile, Linda's Macbook and my Touch will be arriving soon! Yay! I'm seriously thinking of getting an Apple Time Capsule. Just the thought of having 1TB is scary so, i'll settle for the 500GB model. Imagine the ability to automatically backup your ENTIRE computer memory and done automatically.... No more, "Oh Crap!!! ARRGH! What do you mean I've lost my entire teaching folder since 2000????"
Hmm... sounds real good.

Wah... so long never enter this blog. I can imagine the electronic cobwebs and dust flying all over the place. Where do i start? So much to tell, so much to regurgitate.
It has been a mad, mad year. I know! It's not even half a year yet BUT it has already seemed like one. David and myself; we've been sick on and off these few months due to the HFM we suffered in February, just before the Chinese New Year. Doctor's been warning us that we'll be getting sick from the silliest thing because of the whack our immune system received AND THEY WERE RIGHT, I TELL YOU!
David's been better. I got hit with the flu, 2 rounds of diarrhoea (that's cirit-birit to all you malay language speaking people out there) and recently, i seem to have developed an allergy problem to... anything!!! Antihistamines are fine but it can be a bit hairy when you have drive. David got the chicken pox yesterday although he had the vaccine when he was 1 but doc says it's due to the HFM. However, 3 days tops and no fever... we pray. Hmm, why wasn't mine like that?? instead, i suffered for 2 weeks and had more spots than a dalmatian with measles.
Anywhat, we'll be off to Kota Kinabalu in 26 days time. Linda needs a break. Poor her, taking care of her sick babies (both big and small). We're flying Air Asia and paid RM421 for the tickets for 3 and booked ourselves into the Imperial International KK for RM175 per night. Hey wait a minute... just did the calcumalations... We're holidaying for 4 days for less than a thousand. How sweet is that... 4 star hotel again. Let's see how 4 star the hotel will be and i look forward to visiting KK again. Hopefully this time, i won't swim into a plastic bag full of shite-filled diapers. SELAMAT DATANG KE SABAH!
