I'm using RED font to express my disappointment and anger as well. Well, let me start with a few words. Politics, Power, Colonization, Rich, Discrimination, Corruption - do all these words ring a bell in your head? That's what's happening in the world right now. As you stand/sit/ do whatever you're doing, yes, the world around you is revolving in these things. I am beginning to feel that we are getting thrown back into times before independence day but today, it's worse. We are getting screwed by our own system! Last week when my house in Miri almost got broken into, my inner anger system was triggered. He didn't manage to get in but anyhow, i was still mad! These people are not simple, they dare rob, they dare steal, they dare commit crimes! Why? First, law enforcement is crap, they're not real, they do not really WORK! Second, they are being backed up by freaking PO(s)!! (Ask me if you don't know what PO is) Thirdly, PO(s) are being backed up by SSC(ask me again if you don't know). And lastly, SSC are being backed up by SP(s)!!! So it's all one big circle~ One very big circle. What is the world coming to? And they blame it all on God, blame it on Churches. The worst creatures on earth are not fowls, are not tigers, not sharks, it's in fact, human/man itself. I go against discrimination, I go against corruption, I go against crime but what am I compared to the rich and powerful? I am nothing. To them, money makes a difference but do they ever know to us, PEACE makes the most difference?

Trip Back To Miri
18 April 2008 - Happy Birthday Mummy!!! I hope my returning home was the greatest present you could get! Yeap, I left Perth to head home for my mummy's 50th birthday. Many thought I was silly enough to spend that amount of money to go home, for a week but hey, not everyday my mummy turns 50 ok~ get a life, guys~ I know I haven't updated my blog for like, three months? I'm still getting a hold of life, especially second year of uni =p So far, i'm adapting well.. more friends, more assignments, more exams, more work~ So... i'm 'enjoying' life a lot. The holiday back in Miri made me feel so fat, happy, and comfy, especially in the arms of my family once more. But what's more important, it has helped me realize the downhill of our country. More about that in the next blog, for now, i just wana focus on my holiday experiences =p I didn't meet any of my friends, SADLY~ One week truly isn't enough, but i guess it's more than enough if you're away from your loved one. It was hard to leave him back home alone for that one week, especially if you've spent the last

*Happy 22nd Birthday, Honey*
Happy Birthday to the One who helped me go through it all.. I hope what I did was enough for you =) Muakz!!!
Happy birthday to the one I love!
All my joy goes out to you today!
Perhaps I learned, the months you were away,
Part of me moves always as you move.
You're the yearning distance can't remove,
Bringing life to reveries cold and gray;
In thoughts of you my dreams and passions play,
Rejoicing in a hope that time will prove.
Today I celebrate your day of birth,
Happy in the hour that brought you here,
Drawn by all the music of your worth,
A time for gratitude that you are near.
You are the one on Earth I hold most dear.
maY all wisHes u maKe comE truE, LovE

Goodbye 2007, Hello 2008
January 2007
2006 gone. I was prepared to start a new year and a new life in a new place. I was scheduled to leave for Perth in exactly one month. I started off the new year by celebrating my daddy's 50th birthday! I was glad that I was there for it.. It's not everyday that my daddy turns 50! Before I headed off to that faraway land, I had another mission- shopping in KL! I left for KL with my mummy and my darlie~ We celebrated darlie's 21st birthday at KL as well.. He was scheduled to leave two days after we arrive back in Miri.. We wouldn't be able to celebrate our 3rd anniversary together =( My heart sank at the thought of parting with him that early.... This month, we celebrated the 8th death anniversary of my paternal grandfather, Chew Choi Onn. Grandpa, I hope you are dwelling happily with the Lord above. I love you.
February 2007
Darlie didn't leave as scheduled.. it was pushed back for another week! Which means we had more time to spend together! He left on 5th of February. Daddy and I sent him to the airport.. My heart sank once again as I watch him go through security and into the waiting room.. At the airport, I had mixed feelings. Suddenly I didn't feel like leaving anymore. I don't think I can handle the fact of leaving my family behind. I looked at my daddy's face, I don't think I can ever say goodbye. My flight was scheduled to be on the 12th. Days before that, I cried, said goodbyes, enjoyed local delicacies, cried, felt heavy in the heart. On that day itself, the first person I hugged was uncle ryan- he had to leave earlier. Then everybody else. My heart felt so heavy.. who said it was easy to part with your family?? I stepped down on Perth ground, ready to start a new life with someone special =) I was happy to see him again..
March 2007
After all Mum has been through with me, I had to say goodbye to her. It was heartbreaking, nerve wrecking and breath taking.. It was just plain HARD~ I couldn't focus well in uni for the first few weeks, I had to adjust to the fact that there is no longer someone to cook, wash and wait on me. I had to be independent. But with him by my side, everything was so much easier. I had a shoulder to lean on when I felt tired. God sent me this far to help me learn but He didn't not let me be alone. I thank God for darlie's presence =)
April 2007
Studies goes on as usual. I am in line for my studies, not failing anything. Easter is here! To be able to celebrate this wonderful day, I ponder about the things my Saviour has done for me. He has thus brought me this far, I marvel at it. I am thankful that I am now in Australia, working hard for my future. Many assignments are due soon and finals are up in two months. I do hope I am ready!
May 2007
Mum and kakak came over for a visit! Mum will be going back in a week or two but kakak will be here for two months! Finals are here next month. I am starting to prepare well, nothing special is happening this month.
June 2007
Final exams are here. I am stressing out pretty badly but I know the Lord will always be there to answer my prayers. I know He will guide me through everything I need to do. I will not let my family down. Trust me, I will not =) End of exams = start of mid-term holidays!!! I will start work at the Carousel Seafood Market this month, I hope everything works out well.
July 2007
One thing I hate most in my life is saying goodbyes. Why do we have to part each time we meet? This month, I have to say goodbye to Kakak. She will be going home to Miri. I always say I'd rather stay here to work, but deep down in my heart, there is always that feeling, longing to go home to see them all.. I won't deny the fact that I think of my family all the time. Results are released. There, I said the Lord will always answer my prayers. Daddy, Mummy.. I have made you proud =) This month, we also celebrated the first death anniversary of a very important man in my life- my maternal grandfather, Tiong Tai Sui. I will never forget this month of last year, it was the hardest I had to go through. I will never ever forget it. I miss you grandpa, I love you..
August 2007
Uni commences. Assignments start, quizzes start.. another semester. Happy 25th birthday to my 2nd sister, Cherina Chiew! I hope that you may be blessed with all the joy and happiness you can get. I pray that you will realize the love that the Lord has for each and everyone of us. The load for this semester is heavier, definitely heavier! I just hope I can go through it all.
September 2007
Happy 27th birthday to my eldest sister, Alwyna Chiew!!!!! Do not deny the fact that you have grown a year older as they say, a year older, a year wiser. I pray that you may find your loved one soon, so you can get married before me =p Mid semester tests are all falling in at this time. A stressful month for me, I cried one or two times. I desperately needed help with all I was coping. Work, studies, friends- I could not handle them all at once.
October 2007
The most important month in the year and if anyone can guess why... well, you're smart! Yeap!! It's my birthday month! Born as a Libra, I am what it says~ I turn 19 this month but that's nothing special. I still have two more years to go =) However, my day was a special one. Curtin had this asian festival.. kinda like what we called 'Pasar Malam'.. So two days before that and on my birthday, I was working like hell.. Soooo many people celebrated my birthday with me.. how proud ey~ =p.. I thank those who have gotten me presents, I thank my brothers for celebrating with me, I thank my family for all those lovely calls and I thank all those who remembered! I will always love you guys!
November 2007
First year finals are here! I am gonna be done with first year after these exams. All the papers were alright except Human Biology. That is why I hate Biology, I never get over it. I really thought I would have flunked the darn paper. I decided to leave it all behind me and concentrate on my next mission = earning money!! I was scheduled for work quite a lot of days.. so $, here I come!
December 2007
Last month of the year. Mine was colourful. With work, I was exceptionally happy with what I have achieved- many friends, a loving second parents. With studies, results that made my daddy and mummy proud once again. With love, another year for us and more to come =) Mummy and darlie's mum was gonna be here for holidays! How exciting! I was excited about Christmas.. My second mum and pup was gonna take us down to Busselton Resort for a holiday! How exciting.. We had a superb time! But I didn't take much pictures, i forgot my cameo.. how SMART ey~ Christmas had other meanings to me too. It brought painful memories and happy memories. I marvel and think of how happy we used to be in Bintulu, celebrating Christmas together. I cried. I think of how I would have been able to celebrate christmas with my grandpa, I cried. I think of how I missed him badly during this day, I cried. But to think of him watching over me all the time, I smile. To know how much the Lord has blessed me this year, I smile. To be able to go through so much and have grown stronger over the year, I smile. Happy Christmas and May 2008 be an exceptional year for all of you! I love you guys!
