About Them

Today, I received a news that our college buddy Japheth is leaving to Australia. Suddenly, I just miss the time we used to spend together. During the 1st semester, we always hang out together, with SJ, Ah Bee and CH and Hui Ki. We have Chem101 and Engl095 together that time, then went makan after the class. But after the 1st sem, we talked lesser and lesser... However, before Hui Ki leaved us, we had one chance to get together again, the PD trip. Although it just 3 days, I gonna miss it for the rest of my life.

Japheth: Although sometimes you seem quiet, but I guess there's a lot of thoughts running through your mind. Do not forget, walk with God always, find a church when you are in Australia. I wish you all the best in your studies and health. Please take care! May you find good friends there.

SJ: Hoho... So happy that sometimes we still chat, at least we are not like lost of contact. Again, pls take care of yourself. Take more pic and let me see. Hope that you could success in your studies. US is waiting for you! Maybe someday I will pay you a visit there! Kaka....

Hui Ki: Dun fat liao la.... Muahaha... Jia you In US. Hope you can find truly friends there. Pray to God and read bible more. May you grow spiritually everyday! Enjoy your life there, appreciate everything! Be happy! May you success in studies and become a strong woman in financial industry!


When we were together

Moscow

Again, it has been a long long time since my last post. I am in Moscow now! A place that I have never dreamt before. Actually I have already been here for 4 months, just that I am too lazy to update my blog = = And now, that's the end of my first semester, that's why I have some time to write something here now.

Moscow, a place that is totally different from Malaysia, there's 4 seasons in a year and the winter is pretty long and cold; most of the people around you are with golden hair and fair skin, speaking a kind of weird slang known as Russian and that's propably the only language they know.

The uni I am studying is Russian State Medical University. Many would wonder why I chose Russia instead of US. I changed my decision just one week before my flight to US. After seeking for my interest for years, I finally found out that medicine is still something what I wanted to do, just that I was too afraid to take the step. Thank God for guiding me, after some prayers, I decided to come to Moscow. And amazingly, my parents gave me fully supportation.

My uni is about 15 to minutes walk from my hostel, I prefer walking to school every morning, eventhough sometime it is -18 celsius. The view along the way is just so nice and I enjoy breathing in the fresh air. However, when the ground is covered with ice or snow, it is really slippery, I have already fallen down a few times on my way to school. Just can't avoid it. Haha... Currently, I am taking 7 subjects, Anatomy & Histology, Russian language, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Philosophy, Latin language. Anatomy & Histology are the most stressful ones. There's another relaxing subject, physical training, twice in a week, just to keep your body fit and sound.

Nevertheless, there's a Malaysian Fellowship here, a place where you can share everything and grow spiritually with brothers and sisters. Our cell group named JOY, stand for Jesus, Others and You, which means Jesus is the priority, then others, and the last one is ourselves. I just feel that I am drawing closer to God after joining the cell group, here we learn to serve, share, pray and grow. Every members are excellent and special, I really enjoy the time we could spend together with God. There's also another fellowship group I am joining too, it is a Chinese bible study, same as JOY, we are together to know God better.

Well, I better stop crapping now! I guess looking at pictures will show you better my life here, as each of them reveals a thousand words. Muahaha...

Night view of Red Square, I remember that night was freezing cold


In the park, Yi Jun was buried in the snow, sometimes we skate on the lake at night.
That's just a brief of my beginning of life in Moscow, I guess there would be more interesting events occur in the future! Will post it later then when I am free... Wakaka :)
