This is our blog! 2 authors. 2 different stories, from 2 different backgrounds. 2 different feelings, thoughts and experiences. double excitement, 'blast-er' than double cheeseburger! Wuhu!

Our journeys are... full of obstacles, yet hopeful. full of struggles, yet colourful. full of hardships, yet meaningful. They are unforgettable. memorable. and worth travelling together, one step at a time..

need. like. want.

for now...

Cyrus - To get a bicycle. to learn saxophone. to find a job.

Vien - Happiness, to gain weight.

i'm glad to say that i'm having my holiday until next monday! wee!

but Vien still has to work... so cham.. except on wed and thurs.

and so, tomorrow i'm going back to Sungai Siput for at least 3 days. you know where's sg. Siput? it's located at the north of Ipoh. a very nice place, but boring.

back to kampung for some reasons like dropping by at Tualang to eat big river prawns(wow, slurps). also some other nice food like Ipoh Tau Fu fa and big pao(biggg slurpss). and finally to attend my nephew's 1 month old dinner too.

but i won't be able to update anything over there as i might not have any connection and computer. sorry. so hope that i have your little patience for a while 'cuz i promise i'll write again when i'm back, with lots of pictures ;) while vien will continue to entertain you.. hehe.. hor??..

C.A.R will be performing again... and it's 3 weeks from now! oh no, no idea yet. how how?
anyway, let's put this away for a while first as i enjoy enjoy abit dulu! yuhu!

balik kampung~~ oh oh oh balik kampung....~*

heya, finally it's time for me to blog a bit. hehe =)
so sorry for not updating this blog for a while, due to my hectic weekend, i have to do saturday chairing, group songitem and sunday pep talk. whew.. finally it's over.
okay, last friday, my dad brought his children and his wife plus wailoon to a very seldom night family gathering at mamak. and guess what, we are so shocked and amazed of the food that my sis has ordered. i don't know about you, but this is our first time seeing this.
super giant roti tissue.
from my opinion, i think the mamak guy did the right thing.
he purposely did the roti big enough for my sis, due to.. well.. you know..hehe..
anyway, who wants one? i'll bring you go..
there goes the trophy for the "best daughter in the family".

today i would like to use the time now to dedicate a flower and a song to my baby. message is clear and simple: to thank her for loving and taking care of me, staying by my side during the most difficult time of my life, and to thank her for her unspoken perseverence and unending love.

i think you would like a blue rose.
a song that i would like to dedicate to you is...

Stay with Me

作詞:陳信延 / 作曲:蔡旻佑

日光離開眼 鋼琴鍵離開了指尖

小提琴離開了音樂

淚水離開眼 五線譜離開了和絃

我卻離不開你的畫面

找遍世界 想找一種永遠

在你周圍 想留住世界

Stay With Me

留你在我身邊

把眼淚埋進我胸前

把一切抛棄在後面

Stay With Me

不准讓你走遠

你是這個世界

唯一相信的不變

夕陽離開肩 十二點離開了昨天

偶像劇離開了悲怨

聽你的誓言 像音符彈奏在耳邊

我們的愛沒有完結篇

找遍世界 想找一種永遠

在你周圍 想留住世界

Stay With Me

不准讓你走遠

世界那麼善變

愛是唯一的不變

Stay With Me

留你在我身邊

把勇氣放進心裡面

把一切不可都實現

你是這個世界

唯一相信的不變 oh~

being a commander surely is not an easy job to do.

as i took the pledge and vow, i promised to God that i'll be the first to reach and last to go. pray while my 'children' were playing. prepare to suffer the most and yet in the mean time have to shout at the top of my lungs, pushing them forward, encourage them and pull them up. a lot of games i couldn't play and a lot of food i couldn't eat, because my members have to eat and play first.

certainly as i learn throughout this whole journey, being a commander is like being a father. no doubt i have grown so much and learned so much. i'm like an old man, watching the kids from afar, smile when they are happy, though i am only 21 this year.

i still remember at first i was only a mere designated assistant commander. my job was easy and i was pro in that - assisting the head. but unfortunately God has made us headless for a while.

YowLooi then called me to step up. and to recall back, i felt like i was really ready, full of new ideas and fresh plans, absolutely excited. instantly using white and gold colours to be the group colour to represent glory and fearless, group Gideon really stood up among the rest during then.

i am fortunate enough to have a great bunch of great leaders working with me. two experienced mentors and an advisor who really knows me so well working above me guiding and teaching me. with 5 others as my partners suffering and persevere with me, and 4 to help me. they almost made my first year of commandership a success.

yes sometimes i really tried to give up as i have to do everything alone. from decorating the notice board to moping the group room's floor to 3pm programmes to chairing and big games to hanging the banner. but i'm constantly being reminded that i am working for the Lord Himself, see i told u so, i've learned a lot =)

now already september. with 2 months or so to go, i am so sad to see that this group is going to end. i can do nothing but let the memories to do all the talking.

one thing that can really make the commander happy and satisfied is to see his 'children' being so loving and united.

don't believe? i got proves...hahaha..



these are the photos that i took. nice?
(this is just half of the group Gideon)

it's already 1.25am. and i am still here with my eyes and the computer open.
today i had my test on all 4 subjects. not too bad, because it covered only a fraction of the syllabus, but not too good either, simple because i didn't really revise enough. today i don't feel like studying. i don't know why. i know i couldn't afford to let 'today' happen everyday. i need to get over and finish my studies in max 2 years time. i have promised myself. i have promised it to my baby. never slack. never being a lazy frog. must always think and let my brain works.
i didn't eat my lunch, maybe because of the tests that made me wanna stay in the room staring at the books.
of cuz for someone like me who loves to eat, i never miss my dinner. i went out of my campus with a couple of buddies, to have a yummy meal to satisfy my need. nowadays a meal costs so much really, around rm5 plus minus. and the portion is, less, at least for me la. mana boleh. 'money not enough 2' leh.... and plus a drink, rm7 edi lo..with few cents back only.. aih...
what my baby said is so true. to get a simple and happy life is really not easy. it's not simple at all! and yea, when we are young we wish to grow up fast. but when we have all grown up, we wish to stay young and tender. working, is for what purpose? to survive? or to live? is saving money more important than spending money on yourself? or vise versa?
at once i remember in the Bible (one of the most important tool for my journey), in the book of Genesis chapter 3, it wrote that God has cursed every man to work among the thorns and thistles. through painful toil and sweat we will eat from it. until we return to the ground, since from it we were taken.
but i believe and know so clearly that God is not cursing us, but instead, he blessed us with knowledge and wisdom. see, through death, pains, toil and sweat, i realized that oh i am so limited, finite and weak. Work, reminded me that Cyrus Liew on earth are just a brief assignment, training and test. what i must expect and hope for, is eternity (The first song GroupGideon sang on songfest6). and with that in mind, surprisingly, i no longer long for anything else, but just to live from day to day, waiting for the day to go home. this is a simple life - do not care and crave for anything on earth right now. but only set my eyes on things above.
ok. i think i need rest now. after 3 hours of CC just now and having the first "luk-luk" of my life i need to sleep right now. but i am still not sleepy and tired wo.. no no no, tomoro class at 8am. gotta sleep now!
dear all, good nite!
*p/s: football training this sat morning at 7.30am!*

wow. finally can blog thru this line. normally i cant even log in to my mails. gonna appreciate this chance.
17/9


not a bad day for me today. class from 8 till 12pm. rest the whole day. so so sleepy i was. and having the first time cooking in my hostel room =) mum gave me a multipurpose boiler. so i used it for my maggi mee + curry mutton + egg + and my nescafe. wuhu! nice dinner.


yesterday also not a bad day for me. going to Dnest hangar studying aircraft hydraulics and pneumatics. scanning thru the landing gear. wow. much more to learn. gonna revise more. or else i'll be bullied! - katak di bawah tempurung...


tomoro, well, oh no, will have my 1st test for all my 4 subjects. hope i revised sufficiently to pass all the tests. one thing to cheer myself up is that tomoro don't have any classes, usually it's from 8 till 12pm non stop, break 2 hours and continue on from 2 to 6pm. killing man. aiyo!


no doubt this course is easy, because all my exams will be in objective. pure A,B or C. with only 4 essays throughout my whole duration of course. but what's on the darker side is, i have to score 76% in order to, pass. no longer 40%, but 76%!! i believe when i finish in 2 years time i'll be one of the top diploma student, if, i retain my 4.0 cgpa. back to the good side, studying aircraft is indeed interesting, at least, for guys. and i heard that (my fav part), it earns a lot, big bucks. hope so. haha.


ok. i'll stop right here. let me see can i upload any photos for u guys.

these are big planes

this is small...

small planes, business jets..

they were, u know, maintaining..


i look so stupid. aiyoyo... i never look good in uniform..


till then.

hey yo everybody! how do you do? that's right! I'm the other author. thanks for introducing me..

yup! updates by a person may sometimes slow and boring. that's why this time we would like to try a new thing. that is having a same blog by two different person about different area of lives. so that you can see some new things everytime you visit us! sounds interesting or not? or sounds weird? haha..

okay. now what to blog? hmm.. let me do some intro intro dulu ya..

Vien is the co-author of this blog and she works in Times Square. so you can expect much of their advertisements over here. but do check it out often as there'll be a lot of discounts and extra hot news from her. she loves blue, chocolate, cheese but hates durian. why? i love durian!! anyway, she is the one that loves eating but eats very very little. totally different from me - i eat everything!

as for me, I'm still studying in Nilai UC. nothing really interesting but i might be able to update you about airplanes that are taken by my 'super' 1.3mega pixels hp. but really, don't ask me any questions about aeroplanes or hanger or aircraft operator. I'm just a trainee and i know little. hehe..

but one thing you can always expect is the thing from our church, especially Petrayouth as both of we are from there. it'll be only photos and photos and photos!! and handsome guys like me! hahaha..

so stay tune! gotta go back to my hostel room now.
