Air Ticket...

Since the news of being sent to England for a month broke out, my friend and I have been trying very hard to book ourselves on the flight on the cheapest air tickets we can get. We manged so far to find a few cheap and nice one but many have given tons of suggestions by saying we can do lots of other ways to make sure it is even cheaper. I understand the point of getting the cheapest possible, but people who suggested probably didn't know that, it's SUMMER in Europe and tickets sold out in just a glimps of eyes. Some even suggested that we should take 1 airline from here to another destination and connect ourselves from that destination to the final destination. They have failed to see the 'problem' we might be facing... that delay or anything would cause the connection failed, etc. etc. I been through that before and I know what sort of hassel it could be if there is a delay on the first airline, etc.

The funniest thing is that, the price difference between that is only about RM300 to RM600 (return) and they rather risk that.

I can't help it at the end to call up my friend who owe a travel agent to ask her about a better fare since Matta Fair is on in 2 days time. Now, I shall pray for a cheap and nice tickets....

Mission Trip update!

I am not so sure if I should call it a Mission Trip as the purpose I am being sent to is to share about mission ministry in Sabah and to receive more information of how we can reach out to others through mission.

Yes. You got me right. It is quite confirmed now that I will be going for a Crosstalk Conference, a programme which I have been doing since I reached KK, in mid June for the duration of approximately 1 month. Yes... instead of 1 year and/or 3 months, God has blessed me with 1 month instead. Since I have not been going for a holiday for a long time, I guess, I shall treat this as HOLIDAY too... of course I shall not forget the main purpose. Do pray for me though as I do need to sort out all the finances.

Birthday?

I have been suprised by too many incidents since 1am yesterday morning. Friends have been sms and calling me as early as 1am. I therefore thought I should just go in office, being lazy instead since I finsihed up all those urgent matter yesterday (guess that's why I was really seriously tired that evening). My parents called me at around 8am with my mom shouting "Happy Birthday" to me and followed by my dad. Then a few sms from friends, phone calls from friends... and when I came in to office and log on to my email, a long lost friend emailed me and another few good friends from abroad too. While I was replying some email, phone rang and another long lost friend called. It's like... why today?

I walked down to the bank downstairs to get my phone changed and I met Rev. & Mrs. Robert Vun, someone who know me when I was as young as 5 years old. For them to be able to recognise me is really amazing. They shouted my name and I was so happy to see them. Immediately after that, they took 2 pictures with me and said we will see each other again on Sunday. It's just great!!!

After lunch with a wonderful, God blessed friend, I came back to office and worked till 5:30pm. I wanted to leave earlier but was stucked with clients. Selling a piece of property which cost less than RM100,000.00 and they can sat there and talked on the terms and conditions for about 2 hours. It's amazing. After they have signed everything I thought matter shall end there and then as the purchaser was trying to issue a cheque to the vendor and the vendor even raised the issue of trustworthiness of the cheque. In order to get things end faster, I ended up using all kind of ways to convince the vendor to accept the cheque.

Had a lovely evening with some friends. Although I was down with stomach discomfort, but being able to have some friends around were great. Thanks...

So... the memories of my birthday....
