Uni's life carrying on...

I'm again back to this Intelligent City of Malaysia. I got up late today even missed a meeting and a morning class. Damn it! I'm still used to waking up late back then during CNY which i woke up at 10 or 11am everyday. Really became a pig d...

Sob sob...My lovely and gorgeous Ferrari got wet! It's because everyone in the room forgot to close the window and it's raining outside. Luckily it's still alright...

I'm thinking of buying this phone...

Sony Ericsson K800i

Although it's been quite a while since its release, but i guess the price would be better by now. But still i duno what's the price yet. Still considering whether i should buy it...Is it wise to buy a phone that's expensive for me for my own pleasure? But i wanna take more photos of to keep as memories so that i can view them back in the future...

Does God answer the prayers of unbelievers?

God is sovereign and can choose to answer any prayer He sees fit. But Scripture clearly indicates that God does not listen to or answer every prayer. In fact, Scripture gives at least fifteen reasons for unanswered prayer. God does not answer the prayer of those:

1. Who have personal and selfish motives.
   
   You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures (James 4:3).
   
   
2. Who regard iniquity in their hearts.
   
   If I regard iniquity in my heart, The Lord will not hear (Psalm 66:18).
   
   
3. Who remain in sin.
   
   But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, So that He will not hear (Isaiah 59:2).
   
   Now we know that God does not hear sinners; but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does His will, He hears him (John 9:31).
   
   
4. Who offer unworthy service to God.
   
   "You are presenting defiled food upon My altar. But you say, 'How have we defiled You?' In that you say, 'The table of the LORD is to be despised.' But when you present the blind for sacrifice, is it not evil? And when you present the lame and sick, is it not evil? Why not offer it to your governor? Would he be pleased with you? Or would he receive you kindly?" says the LORD of hosts. "But now will you not entreat God's favor, that He may be gracious to us? With such an offering on your part, will He receive any of you kindly?" says the LORD of hosts.
   
   
5. Who forsake God.
   
   Thus says the Lord to this people: "Thus they have loved to wander; They have not restrained their feet. Therefore the Lord does not accept them; He will remember their iniquity now, And punish their sins." Then the Lord said to me, "Do not pray for this people, for their good. When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and grain offering, I will not accept them. But I will consume them by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence (Jeremiah 14:10-12).
   
   
6. Who reject God's call.
   
   Because I [Wisdom] have called and you refused, I have stretched out my hand and no one regarded, Because you disdained all my counsel, And would have none of my rebuke.... Then they will call on me, but I will not answer; They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me (Proverbs 1:24-25, 28).
   
   
7. Who will not heed God's law.
   
   One who turns away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer is an abomination (Proverbs 28:9).
   
   "But they refused to heed, shrugged their shoulders, and stopped their ears so that they could not hear. Yes, they made their hearts like flint, refusing to hear the law and the words which the Lord of hosts had sent by His Spirit through the former prophets. Thus great wrath came from the Lord of hosts. Therefore it happened, that just as He proclaimed and they would not hear, so they called out and I would not listen," says the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 7:11-13).
   
   
8. Who turn a deaf ear to the cry of the poor.
   
   Whoever shuts his ears to the cry of the poor, Will also cry himself and not be heard. (Proverbs 21:13).
   
   
9. Who are violent.
   
   When you spread out your hands, I will hide My eyes from you; Even though you make many prayers, I will not hear. Your hands are full of blood (Isaiah 1:15; see also 59:2-3).
   
   
10. Who worship idols.
    
    Therefore thus says the Lord: "Behold, I will surely bring calamity on them which they will not be able to escape; and though they cry out to Me, I will not listen to them. Then the cities of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem will go and cry out to the gods to whom they offer incense, but they will not save them at all in the time of their trouble. For according to the number of your cities were your gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem you have set up altars to that shameful thing, altars to burn incense to Baal. So do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them; for I will not hear them in the time that they cry out to Me because of their trouble." (Jeremiah 11:11-14; see also Ezekiel 8:15-18).
    
    
11. Who have no faith.
    
    But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord (James 1:6-7).
    
    
12. Who are living in hypocrisy.
    
    Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy (Luke 12:1).
    
    
13. Who are proud of heart.
    
    God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:5).
    
    
14. Who are self-righteous.
    
    The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, "God, I thank You that I am not like other men-extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess." And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, "God, be merciful to me a sinner!" I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted (Luke 18:11-14).
    
    
15. Who mistreat God's people.
    
    You have also given me the necks of my enemies, So that I destroyed those who hated me. They cried out, but there was none to save; Even to the Lord, but He did not answer them (Psalm 18:40-41).
    
    You who hate good and love evil; Who strip the skin from My people, And the flesh from their bones; Who also eat the flesh of My people, Flay their skin from them, Break their bones, And chop them in pieces, Like meat for the pot, Like flesh in the caldron. Then they will cry to the Lord, But He will not hear them; He will even hide His face from them at that time, Because they have been evil in their deeds (Micah 3:2-4).

So, does God answer the prayers of unbelievers? A strict yes or no answer is difficult without qualifying the answer in various ways. However, it is noteworthy that the above mentioned principles represent some of the key characteristics of an unbeliever. Thus we can safely say that, in general, God does not answer the prayers of an unbeliever.

It's Thursday...

I've back to Ipoh for a week already by now. It's CHINESE NEW YEAR!! Though every year is the same, but every year it's different for me, and i'm sure for anyone else too. Feelings were mixed. Environment were noisy and quiet. My car's brake is starting to make a lot of unknown notes of music. My house is decorated in lights of red and yellow/orange. I saw my brother and sister-in-law and saw the toyota VIOS with shinning tires. Red colored packets were everywhere. Traffic jams were everywhere too. The list of scenes floating on my mind will just go on and on...

I saw many faces this new year. But out of those that i have not seen long time, i think they mostly gain WEIGHT except one or two loss weight. Not bad...I was still able to recognize all types of faces. My memory is working good. :) This CNY is a simple one. I just visited a few friend's house. But then my angpao money is still as MUCH as the previous year.

Finally, there's someone else gave compliment to my hair. But there's someone thought that i've permed my hair. The fact is that i didn't perm my hair yet. I think i'm still not ready to be surprised what my hair will look like if i perm it. I actually had a hair cut in the evening the day before CNY. I did it at Philippe Sum and a guy named Issac in charge of my HAIR. I guessed his mouth is made of candy. I've been interested in having the hair style of Zhang Dong Liang all the time, so i requested him to trim my hair to be like Zhang Dong Liang. He replied me and say :"Everyone has own his own style. Zhang Dong Liang 100% imitated Korean style. But you're different. You have your own style. Your own style is even better than Zhang Dong Liang!!" Wow...this guy, really knows how to comfort you by his words. I paid RM35 not only for the cut, but oso for my listening pleasure. Haha...However, all the time he was just using razor to get my hair done in shape, not using scissor at all. Still can't figure out what's the difference and whether it's good or bad for the hair. So, i'm just gonna keep my hair now for further decision. :)

Yesterday night i went to Rum Jungle in Sunway City, Ipoh. Wow...the place is awesome~!! I never thought that there's something like this in Ipoh until yesterday night. The place is very well decorated and designed. Woody feel. There's lot of cars even during mid nights...I think there's a lot of night stalkers out there. I got a free drink there. Then me n my friends just had a walk around the whole place. Less than an hour, we went out cuz someone else gotta back to her home.

I had a talk with my mom just now. We exchanged some information. I told her something that i've downloaded from the internet. It's actually some music track that you can listen throughout the night that will calm you down and make your sleep more sound n deep. That way, you can have quality sleep all night long. But in turn, she told me to find a gf soon! I was shocked. She told me that now it's the perfect time to get one, if not it's too late...Haha...I was like...I dunno how to reply her. But anyway, i hope to get a gf too. But it's not an easy task, as least for me. No money....sob sob...It's not easy for me to fall in love. Once i fell in love, but if i couldn't make it (i mean get together with the girl), i will give up really easily...If i can make it, then i'll treat the girl with whole of my heart. I guess this is me... Don't ask me whether i got TARGET or not, cuz this is too sensitive and i won't answer it... ;p

This is a PIG year doesn't mean that everyone will behave like PIGS... Instead, i hope everyone will work as HARD as possible to achieve what u've always wanted and make your dreams come true!! Be committed, positive and stay focused!! ;) Happy Chinese New Pig Year!!

Valentine's

Finally it's valentine's. But it's nothing other day a normal day in my life. Time just goes by as usual. But today is my day as a taxi driver...i went to pudu purposely to fetch Jason n bring him to IMU there to meet her gf as he din drive down his car. It's how single life lives...watching how couples live...

I guessed i'm driving my car circulating in KL for more than 4 hours today...Traffic jams everywhere...Time wasted...i guess there's so much going on out there, even beside the road there's stalls selling roses.

This year's valentine's ended by just having dinner with a bunch of friends... Hope next year wilhave a different valentine's...cuz never been celebrating this day with a lover :(

Sleepy n tired...zzzz...guesse it's time to enter la-la land... Good nite~!

无奈...

It's been a while i have not posted anything in my blog. I've been quite lazy lately, but i do study the books. It's the opposite of what i did compare to previous trimesters. Normally i'm still playing at every beginning of a new trimester. Nothing special happened lately...It's dull...Especially have to accept the truth that tomorrow is Valentine's day and me?? I'm gonna be alone... :(

I've eaten 2 loafs of bread in 2 days, averaged 1 per day...Scary?? hehe... It's not plain bread, but with something in it like raisins and apricots. Couldn't stop eating it as snack whenever i was free. Guess i'm gonna gain weight soon...hehe...

So what should i do tomorrow??? Anyone who view my blog pls give some comment... Better still invite me out for some programs (only those who are still single or gf/bf not around)...
