Poem

for life is just a passing phase.

People come, people go.

Though those that leave may

be very dear to you,

fret not because our God will bring you through;

For us, death is merely a passing phase,

that ends with song and joy;

The one you love is up in heaven,

singing His praise forevermore.

It won't be long till you see her again,

and join in the worship;

But until then be strong, my friend

you are not alone.

He is with you and He will bring you through;

For He says that He never gives us

too much to handle.

"My grace is sufficient for you."

...Take heart in His promises, girl.

U

Love,

Jolyn

Puli, the mop dog

Jules & i were harping on about dogs today at the media hub. i had no idea she liked dogs sooo much, but she's not allowed to have one =( ... We peeked out through the window and saw a black stray dog outside college grounds. It was chilling out on the sand in the rain. What man! In the rain?! Poor thing. When i had to go, Jules sulked and told me to send the dog in instead to keep her company. Haha. Nash substitute.


Speaking of dogs, i came across a really freakatootingationistic breed called a Puli. Honestly! And i thought amoebas were weird creatures O.o ...
They look like mobile mops with a sharp sense of smell. Hey that gives me an idea! Every household should have one for multipurposes. It cleans, it provides company, amusement, and security. Awesome!

Check it out. It cam whore's too *wolfcalls* "Do you think i'm sexy?"

Gakk! What the heck of a pose is this?

To find out more about his royal puliness, check out the American Kennel Club. Eeek adorable la.

Ranting post about the KTM

Today, The Star newspaper reports on our PM, taking a ride on none other than the KTM. All the way from Serdang to KL Sentral, then a switch to the LRT to Masjid Jamek, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said he was less then satisfied.


But i'll bet he's got more words for it than unsatisfactory. i know i would!!!

Hah! You see, you see?! i told you the KTM was crap! i told you but you all never listen, do you???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fine then...you can just talk to the hand!

********************************

Just kidding. i love you all. ohoho

The Dollar Decade

Wow...flappers a.k.a. vamps are gorge n glam. The term surfaced in the Jazz Age (20's), categorising young women who rebelled against societal norms. They popularised bobbed hair & short skirts. They smoked, ,drank, drove, wore excessive make up and listen to jAZZ.

The many faces of flappers

Eeek they are GLAMOROUS!!

Love the pose..but what's with the guy fawning all over her? Spoils the whole thing Norma Talmadge (actress)

Oozes sex appeal. Just about dontcha think?

Clara Bow (actress)

Short skirts, flat boobs, bob hair- the prototypical flapper

i'm not to hot on the flat chest though

They could do with a bit of silicone ;)

Nice cartoon. Some day, i'll work my way around this too ^^... A whole range of dances flourished in the 20's like the Charleston, Shimmy, Toddle & lots more. People finally learned how to have fun, yeah!

Praise the Lord for good results in uni

End of my term holidays already & it's back to college *sobness*

There goes my precious rotting time, haha.

But since there's no lecture today, most of us are only attending tomorrow, what imps ;-p

So i checked on my Unisa results to see how i did for the previous semester- which was not too long ago; before the holidays. Wow, where has the time gone. We grow up so fast *sniffles*

i got D for every one of my subjects except CCS. Darn that subject. D for Donkey??? Haha i'd be crying if Unisa follows the A, B, C grading system. But D here = Distinction, so i'm pretty glad.

All i can say is praise God that i got through the first semester without breaking anything. D, C, D, D...hmm...not bad, eh? But i give God all the credit. Couldn't have done it without Him.

Only the with God's grace, only with God's grace

Oh pretty baby (Didi)

S.C.E.A.M.

My aunt has returned from China for a 6 week holiday, bringing with her tons of gifts. Even better, she brought my ADORABLE baby cousin [she's all of two now] with her. My cousin; mine mine MINE ALL MINE!!! Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Didi (short for Deanna) is 2 feet (i think) of attitude & sass. i mean seriously; she can never keep still for a moment. Not especially when we are around. She loves being around people & seems to have taken a liking to my youngest bro. Everywhere she goes she's like "Jo-Kyle, Jo-Kyle come here". It's no easy chore looking after her. Most...actually every two-year-olds are content with sticking to mummy like glue and sitting quietly, playing with dollies...but this babe is like road rage man! Too fast too furious.

My aunt prayed for a girl when she found out she was pregnant. Come ultrasound time, she really got a baby girl. Then she prayed for the baby to have lots of hair. Come delivery, the doctors first saw a black bush, making its way for-...uhm, maybe i'd better not continue. Anyways she got everything she wanted. It didn't take long for Didi to do...just about anything.OMG for a two year old, she is awesome!!! My uncle says she is everything he wants in a daughter.

My aunt received an email about child development and research showed that the average 2 yr old can recognise at the names of at least two friends. Bah! This girl knows everybody in her nursery in China. She knows the names of my family members too. We've actually seen her once last year. She was 1 at the time & already learnt our names. One year didn't do anything to make her forget us. She came back to Malaysia remembering everybody in the family.Tell me that isn't cool, i dare you. Also, she can sing in chinese, english, and bm...wow.

Here's lookin at you, babe. i'd kill for cheeks like those.So pinchable

Theory of hyperactivity- Energy=Didi

She's a ball of nonstop action.Jackie Chan's cue to retire (Plus she's cuter, gosh)

whoa 100kmph

This is how fast she moves. i can't even get a clear pic

Youngest camwhore. i managed to convince her to stay still for awhile to take a picture

Her signature pose.Too cute.

Her hair is actually much longer.It's all tied up

Mine MINE ALL MINE!!!

PS- Once, in China, my aunt was getting her ready for a bath when a visitor arrived at their apartment. My aunt let in the visitor and Didi ran out of the room in her birthday suit and jumped at the uncle with open arms and yelled "SURPRISE!"

PPS- Everyone swears that i was just like Didi when i was young. My aunt even wrote a college paper about me. O.O

A platypus in a UPSR taugeh project

My sister had this science project for UPSR and she was supposed to grow bean sprouts in two separate containers. The first had to contain 5 seeds & the other, 10 seeds. The objective was to observe which container would have the bigger and healthier sprouts [duh the five]...

Aww...they're so cute.

She brought it inside the house the night before she was supposed to hand in the project & kept blabbing on about it to me. We never had projects like that during my time...not that i remember, that is.

i took a closer look at her plants & found something inside.OMG HAHAHAHAHA, there was a paper platypus swimming in her pool of bean sprouts. It was from a decorative paper perforator, you know the kind with different shapes & patterns. We have one the shape of a platypus. Apparently, one of the pieces came to life like Chucky the doll & decided to go for a dip.

Up close & blurry

Blue paper platypus swimming in the sprouts

My sis & i were doubled over. Guess what we did after that? We threw it away.Done!

The day I got my IC back

i got my IC back. -_-

This has got to be the weirdest thing that's ever happened to me...but i really do thank God for it. It's such a relief to see the familiar blue card in my hands with the gold chip and hideous photo of a fat 12 year old. *sigh* Ah yes, life is good when you know the Lord. =)

God is VERY real

Not too long ago, my mom bought a book called 'Message from God'. It was written by the Retha McPherson, the Mrs South Africa of 2004. That year, she and her whole family were involved in a severe road accident. Retha, her husband and youngest son Josh suffered nothing serious, but when they found the body of their elder son Aldo, they were devastated- he was almost dead.



They rushed him to the hospital and it was a battle throughout the night. He was lingering between life and death. He survived but he became crippled. Things started to change tremendously for Retha and her family. Aldo couldn't speak at first but he wrote messages to his mom that God took him to heaven at the night of the accident when doctors were fighting to save his life. He saw heaven and he saw God. When i read the book i was so overcome about the hard-hitting reality. God is very very real. Aldo experienced something most of us can't imagine.



All that happened for a reason. God wanted to use Aldo to testify in his name for his glory. Aldo met two boys in heaven and when his life was saved and he was back on earth, he told his mom to search for the mothers of the two boys. Both families had become broken after the deaths of the boys. Aldo told each mother not to worry and that their sons were in heaven. As time passed, Aldo was slowly healed by God. He was visited by an angel several times and he knew about the huge tsunami beforehand, and told his mom.His mom didn't understand what he was trying to say until the tsunami occured. She was sent as a representative to administer aid.


Aldo saw many people across a bridge but they were not inside heaven. The hordes were crying. He asked God who they were and what were they doing there. God replied that they were Christians. Christians only by name but disobedient people. They attended church and read the Bible but they did not live according to His word and their hearts were far from God. How long would they have to stay outside? Would they be able to enter? God says no, they will be there forever.


So Aldo had had a very miraculous experience in going to heaven, seeing God, angels, Moses and Abraham. When he came back, he brought with him this message: Jesus is alive! Reading this opened my eyes as to how real God, heaven and hell is. And even for christians, we should not just stop at accepting Jesus as our Lord and saviour, but grow in God. Obey Him and become more and more like Him everyday. Your reward will be up in heaven. Just remember, God will JUDGE....
