7 more days to my 21st - A blink of an eye and I'm already 21
So here's some of my earliest record of myself
I still remember.....
-my first memory (yeap, i can't recall whatever that was before that), or rather, nightmare- stretched all the way back to the first day when I was 4
-the first time i fell down hard, and my whole chin was bruised and soaked in blood, I was 5 then, only started kindergarden like a few months
-i shove some tiny object (round) up my nose, and had to go to a hospital to get it removed, I was 5, if i'm not mistaken
-how everyday i would walk with the company of my dad, mom or grandma to my aunt's place when i was 4 and 5
-i immitated Jungle Book's Mogly attics in licking ants, when i was 5, possibly :P
-how happy I was when my sis came down from malacca to join me in my everyday, boring routine at my aunt's place
-sticking out my tounge at a kindergarden school teacher, and was told off after that (hey dont blame me, i merely followed what his son did to her :P )
-how i ran out of school, without getting caught by teachers not guards for nearly a week when I was in primary (after that they decided to put me with a teacher 24-7)
-feeling scared and cried because my fellow classmates bombarded me with their crude, chinese accent which i cannot comprehend at all during my first week in primary
-i'm always the shortest, or almost in primary
-since my name starts with "A", I'll always be the "lab rat" in classes- immune jabs, try outs, etc.
-how i went through a hect of a training and probation just to become a prefect when i was in Catholic High
-how i transfered to another secondary school that was closer to my home (i cycled, walked and took a van- it all depends on my mood LOL)
-how self defence build me up, and brought me down to reality- that we cannot fight a monster with monster
-how me and my seconday schoolmates caused a commotion by climbing school roofs
I also remember, and always will remember....
-The day i fractured my feet (and i dislocate my opponent's elbow as well) during a practice fight before my karate tournament
-And after 1 month plus, i got another feet fractured (Doctor:" son, do you have a death wish or something? Haven't been on a wheelchair before i presume?"
-How my right leg will always have a joint disorder (and still happens now) after an incident in Teakwondo training
-The day i got caught up in anger and hatred- and regretted it after that
-My first pay check
-How i nearly landed myself in MMU Malacca, but was registered as a KDU student later on
-The first dish that i cook
Things that i regretted....
-Never came to know Jesus Christ earlier
-Leaving Catholic High, quitting the Chinese Ochestra Band
-Releasing my anger and hatred towards my friends in an unethical and non-sensical fashion when i was in secondary
-Never learn how to play football (saya kaki bangku :P)
Things I never regretted....
-knowing Jesus Christ
-getting to know more people (and more close friends as well)
-having my parents to put me through what I have gone through
-having an awesome family and friends
Stay tuned for more...:P

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 10- Reflective Moments !!
Have you ever wonder, what will you see if you were to look up upon a clear, nigth sky?
A very subjective answer huh?
I saw so many things that passed me by just at a snap of my fingers- some were events that arguably, could have change my life. I also embraced some, knowing that it would never be as simple as a few mundane task- and i never regretted having to walk down the path.
God never directly told me what to do to begin with, he just laid down a map for me, and ask me to explore myself. The only bonus and consolation i think i have in all these walk of faith is that i knew God will always be there to guide me when i'm lost. I really thank God for that.
So if you were to ask me whether i had regretted doing what I'm currently doing- I would have said no. I knew what's gonna happen the moment i sign up for it. It would be a rough ride, granted- but it'll be pretty much stupid of me to let it go without a try or leap of faith.

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 9- The Cina Man !!
那一年
不想出门的阴天,
适合听甚么音乐-
流行的还是经典?
只怕都跟你有些关联...
说穿了无非怀念,
现在与过去之间;
那片段还很新鲜,
所有美好记忆焦点;
都集中在纷乱的那一年-
只差那么一点点,
就不会断了线;
当时我们不了解,
爱情里的磨练;
总是要兜了一圈才发现-
在之前我们太会埋怨...
也许只差一点点,
故事就要改写;
我们回不去昨天,
删除某些情节;
等到伤口都复元 才怀念-
那一年 那一天
那世界完美无缺.....

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 8- Random Encounter, Part 1 !!
If people were to ask me:" What's my little heart thinking? ", I would probably have said :" I don't know"
At best- I'll be probably looking at myself
"Why?" , you ask. Simply put, I think God has changed my life in many areas, and I thank God for that. How? let my friend do the explanation - that's why i said "I don't know" in the first place, din't I?
It does not mean I'm not troubled (hey If i'm troubled free I'm probably the happiest man alive on earth now, besides, your pants will be on fire, yes i'm prophesising, right at this moment if you were to tell me you are troubled free !! XD )
Hmmm...... Knowing Jesus is a real life changer- I've heard of the Gospel ever since i was form 4/5, my aunty even told my family that I will accpet Christ years ago, but being a free thinker previously, I've brushed aside that idea again and again.
What makes me accept Him? Three words :" He showed me"
At least now if i'm troubled - I'll know where to turn to :P
And I'm glad i'm riddled with it- caused that's what makes me, a human :)

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 7- Why I Hate Crossroads !!
So here am I, currently at another crossroad - once again.....uggghhhh, how i never fancy getting into one.
The problem with reaching a crossroad is, you can either go left, turn right, head straight on, or make a u-turn and go back.
It is said when you fight life, life always win.
Guess I'll just have to surrender everything, and have faith in God- trust that He will tell me where and when to turn then.
How i hate crossroards -.-''
The problem with reaching a crossroad is, you can either go left, turn right, head straight on, or make a u-turn and go back.
Now here's the situation:
- I can't make a u-turn, cause i don't want to
- If i turn left, i will have let everything slide across me, and ignored what lies ahead and what i think is right (that is, if i turn right)
- If i move straight ahead, i would be caught up with two uncertanties- pros and cons, put it that way
- If i take the right turn, i would have traveled much much more further to reach my destination (either way, going ahead will get me to the same destination as well)
It is said when you fight life, life always win.
Guess I'll just have to surrender everything, and have faith in God- trust that He will tell me where and when to turn then.

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 6- Self Realization !!
I always though as long as I have faith, everything will come about in its own time and will, until.......
This boy proves me wrong !!!!
(just joking btw LOL)was reading through the bible, and two verse struck me hard on my face:
James 1: 6- But when he ask, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of sea, blown and tossed by the wind
James 2: 14- What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?
so all this while I've got the idea that i should wait, and wait, AND WAIT, believing that God will do miracles.....
the whole 2 chapters in James just proved me wrong, seems like I have to take some initiative before God will guide me through and through
owh well, no harm trying, right?

Andrew's Tiny Adventure, Chapter 5- Public Transportation !!
It's been a long time since I took a public transport to any destination, so this morning decided to take a bus - Go Me!!! :P
(gone were the healthy days where i have to walk 45 mins down my housing area- was staying on top of a hill, and still is, to get a bus to IOI mall to work when i just finish SPM)......
or..... so i though....
Unfortunately for me, i just remembered, that even now buses are unwilling to go up to my housing area, so i have to walk, climb, crawl, whatever you call it, all the way up to my home again..... good excercise for someone whom just woke up and with a empty stomach.
I still remember those days, where people crammed like sardines into a small, non- air conditioned public bus just to get to work, and when i say crammed, i really mean crammed, you might expect the bus to burst anytime soon everytime you get into one (infact, there's only one which gets me to Sunway Pyramid from Puchong). Asides from that, people are sometimes unwilling to make a little more space for passengers, can't really balme them, either, we are the same- we prefer NOT to smell your arm pit in the early morning :P
Taxi!!! Don't even make me start with them- they are the real leeches you can ever find in Malaysia - Tropical Forest Leeches? You'd have to train another 100 years to beat our taxi drivers.
Hitch a ride? If Malaysians are even that kind, to begin with......
Yeah, back to my house, sleep time!!
Should teach my hamster how to do break dance to cure my boredom after this.......
