Malaysia is one the few nations who's involved in this disaster.... Penang beaches mildly destroyed.... heard that news only on monday morning... was so shocked and quickly sent msgs to Kathleen, Ai lee and Sarah to ask whether they are ok not... thank god all of them are still safe and sound... and Kat were actually at the scene when all this happen... but thank God she's alright... Then later after that... heard that Nadeesh and his gang all survived in this tragedy... Serious praise God for keeping all my friends safe... Thinking back of all this sudden disaster that just strike without warning... and just snatching ppl's life... i seriously need to appreciate and cherish all my friends around me... cause no one would know what's gonna happen tomolo or the next second.... but one question... why must God letting all this disaster to happen?? hmmm.... maybe someone can answer me??

Life in Airport (18 December 2004)
Have anyone ever have an experience of having to standby in KLIA from 1130am till 1015pm just to get a seat to fly back to Kuching.... to come back to the same spot every one hour to pray for a seat to me wasn't a fun fun experience.... that morning... luckily had dim sum breakfast with my housemate near sri petaling... if not... i would certainly dun have the energy to continue on to wait for my seat.... it all happen on the 18 December 2004
11:15am: Arrived in KLIA after breakfast by KLIA express....
11:30am: Managed to get a standby ticket worth RM142 and put my name on the waiting list to kch and was told more than 40 ppl are in the list...
11:45am: Loiter around KLIA and approached by a girl full with Chinese accent claiming herself to be from Shanghai China who lost her credit card and insisting she dun have any other intention?? and then ask me to sort of like donate her some money… me who was also kind of broke… rejected her with a lame excuse that I’m a student who has little money… Am I consider as bad guy to not help her… is it because of this that causes the retribution to me later…
11:55am: Standing in front of the standby counter, starting to be panic because no name at all is announced from the standby list to board the
12:30pm plane… (What should I do?? Should I continue to wait?? What if I couldn’t get a seat today for such a long queue…?)
12:30pm: Again my name is not in the list for the shortlisted person to the plane… (Maybe the next flight)
1:30pm: Encik, tolong check ada nama saya tak? Many people approached the counter and asked… not me… cause I think the 3:00pm Airbus would have higher chance for me to get a seat….
2:30pm: With hope that I might just be able to get on the plane…. Again disappointment struck me when only 2 people announced to get into the flight MH 2528… NO!!! PLEASE GOD DON’T DO THIS TO ME!!!
3:15pm: Decided to take a break from all this and have my HEAVY meal in KFC because they served me the value meal 4 with three piece chickens.. too full to move after that….
4:55pm: Stood in the same spot and wait for my name to be called cause realized that MH2528 which is suppose to take off at 3 is delayed to 5:30pm… but surprisingly no name is called at all… maybe no more seat available for the flight….
5:18pm: Jane finally called…. She finally arrived…. Someone to accompany me…
5:30pm: Names were announced for the 1750 flight… no… No… NO… NO!!! There’s no my name again…where’s my name??!?!?!?!? This shouldn’t happen… Jane met up with me there and approached the counter for info… shocked… Blurred… Angry?!!... we announced your name at 5:00pm for MH2528 but no reply from you… so we cancelled out your name from the list… if u wanna be in the list again… u’ll have to be rearranged again from the bottom… he said… FINE!!! Was I blurred or was I deaf?? Was there anything wrong with my watch?? How come I missed my name?!??!?!?! FINE!!! Forget it..!!!! start from beginning again!!!! FINE!!!!!!! But one thing he assured me that the next flight at 8:45 should have a seat for me because only 5 ppl on the waiting list… Maybe this is God’s arrangement for me to teman Jane… ok fine… me and her sitting in McD… at least we managed to know each other a bit better before being partner for gp posting… and Jane… Haha… finally I know all ur secret… at least missing this flight is worthwhile for Jane’s SECRETS… haha…
7:15pm: Jane went into the departure hall… Me alone again… back to the same spot just in case I missed their call again…
8:00pm: Jia Han arrived… another one to accompany me… hehe… at least for 30 minutes… (sort of like fill with confidence to get into the 2045 flight…)
8:30pm: One by one the name was announced to get on the flight… DESPAIR, MISERY, DEPRESSED, DISHEARTEN, DISMAY, DISAPPOINTMENT… my name not in the list… shit… no… oh my god… what happen?!??! Asked him who was on the counter… he sort of ignore me… refer me to another counter… and noticed that from 5 person… they now tell me… there’s 10 ppl more on the list and now no assurance there’s seat for me…. Irony!!! From 5 ppl to 10 ppl… WHAT THE **** are they doing??? What’s wrong with them??? What’s their problem!!!!
9:00pm: Sit down next to an auntie who came from Kuching and having to be in the waiting list to go back Kuching as well… we actually chit chat and I actually gained her trust to let me take care of her stuff when she left a few minutes before they announce my name listed for the 1015 flight…
10:00pm: Still holding on my boarding pass… where’s the auntie??!??!?!? Where the heck did she go??? I couldn’t just leave her stuff here and leave… but time is running short… some more my gate is one of the furthest in KLIA A09…
10:04pm: Finally she appeared with her husband running to my way… they actually got the seat on the same flight as well… din wait for them and rushed to gate… When I reach the gate… people are still boarding it… luckily…
10:13pm: Seated on my seat on the plane 27B last row of the boeing 737… Relieved… Thank God … Praise God… Love God… Finally got a seat… avoided to sleep overnight in KLIA alone… thanks lord… but do I really wanna leave KL… where she is?? :-P
10:18pm: Slight delay when finally the plane starting to move with the two pilots… five air stewardess on the plane… an anorexic head stewardess, a plump air stewardess for the business class… the other three; a stressful looking guy stewardess… a young cheerful ‘cute’ stewardess but full with ‘la’ la’ la’ accent and a quite beautiful stewardess who doesn’t know how to smile… HELP!!! Why am I in this flight… :-(
10:25pm: MH2534 finally spread her wing flying towards the sky… Goodbye to KL, gonna miss her…. Kuching here I come…

'Drunk before Dawn' or 'A Christmas Tale'
Having to watch two Christmas musicals in about one week time… Shall I compare these two great productions of two different churches in Kuala Lumpur...? ‘Drunk before Dawn’ by Sidang Injil Borneo (SIB- Just knew it after I watched their musical) and ‘A Christmas Tale’ by Metro Tabernacle
Most Impressive Singings: ‘Drunk before Dawn’- It amazed me when I heard them sing… especially the main actor and actress and her mom in the play… my God… God really blessed them with lots of talents to be able to sing so well….
Most Relevant to Christmas: ‘A Christmas Tale’- Talked about how Christmas came about and what’s the real meaning of Christmas in quite a different way… Got to know the meaning of Christmas better… Whereas… ‘Drunk before Dawn’ just brought out how great is God and how did SIB come about…
Most Remarkable Music: ‘Drunk before Dawn’- Who else deserved this title and who can be compared to them for having a whole orchestra in front of the stage and playing all self composed pieces…. BRAVO!!! SIMPLY ASTONISHING!!!
Most Meaningful Line: ‘A Christmas Tale’- ‘This is not the end but just the beginning...’ remarking the importance of Jesus birth to our world...
Highest Budget Production: ‘Drunk before Dawn’- The theatre, the backdrop, the
Orchestra, the costumes… all not cheap…
**I’ll add on if I could create some more title… :-þ Any suggestions??
Actually I enjoyed both the musicals a lot… brought me nearer to God… ;-)
