New 2009

Welcome to a new year.

My new year began with God. Was at church for Thanksgiving n Re-Dedication from 10pm till 1am. No where better to start than in Gods presence. Ps David shared a wonderful message. Reaffirms our aim and hopes for a adventure filled year.

Immediately after the end of the celebration, worship team and me headed for supper before going to Ipoh in the wee hours of the morning. We were to minister and serve at Canning Garden Baptist Church at 2.30pm. The Team - Ps David, Ps Gloria, Ps Jason, Ps Jadeline, Dawson, Jimmy, Chrysler, Hannah, Michelle, Daniel, Timothy and myself. We were caught at abt 2am in a jam in Kepong. Loooong jam. I was with Jimmy Timothy and Chrysler in Jades kenari. And we decided to be just a little crazy in the new year spirit.

We wound down our windows.......and literally wished each car we passed (in the crawl) happy new year! Cool eh? Though we werent that bold to shout "Jesus Loves You". Well at least we were bold enough to put some worship songs loud and sang out loud. Didnt mind we got stares. We just enjoyed. Ps Jason in front of us with Michelle Jadeline n Hannah were laughing at us singing at the back.

As we escaped the jam, we sang more and more worship songs........well into a foggy highway. I was awake until i slowly dozed off at abt 4am.......with the snare drum firmly in my hands. Woke at abt 5am and we were in Ipoh already. Got to the hotel and slept by 5.30 before waking up at 11am same morning.

Had lunch together at 12pm. That was when i heard abt the 4 rider crash at Broga when i asked my riding buddies how were they doing on their New Year Ride. I was really worried coz one of them was my good frend Azahari. And the others were riders i knew as well. Adeline Lee, Firdaus n Pine. Practically was worried for them and hoping for things to be alright. I called Chief Kutu to check how were things and he said all were concious and nothing too serious. I later learned that Azahari had a broken collar bone and a 2 inch gash on his fore head. Pine had a dislocated shoulder. Adeline n Firdaus had a few nasty scrapes and bruises. They were taken to Seremba GH and then given outpatient treatment except Azahari who had to be admitted. Heard he was taken back to Ampang Putri Specialist. Thank God at least. Hope they are all recovering well and speedily.

After that went over to CGBC and service ended arnd 5.30. Had light porridge prepared by the church before we left back to KL. We did this all in a day!

Driving back was equally crazy (esp with two guys having a DSLR camera in the same car).

We took lots of crazy pictures. And the driving was not any better as well. Dawson drove Ps Davids car at 140kph! Jimmy grunted everytime he drove Ps Davids car he wud get sounded if he went over 110. Lol. Jimmy Jason n Dawson kept overtaking each other on the highway. Until we reached KL. Chyrs managed to snap a cute photo of Timmy sleeping with his mouth open.

Reached KL at abt 9pm. And just as we tot we were safe at home, Jimmy cant find the toll ticket. We ransacked the whole care but we cudnt find it. In the end he paid RM46.20 as a fine (which is the max toll you will pay from Bkt Kayu Hitam, Kedah to KL). Later when we got to the restaurant for dinner, Ps David n Ps Gloria cudnt help but sit Jimmy down at the dinner table and started interrogating him.....much to our amusement.

Dinner and fellowship was great. Talked about Waffle Kerang, Durian Fritters and insects for snacks. Lol

Reached my hse at 11pm all tired n beat up.

New ways to start a new year.

Merry New year Folks
