End of Journey.............

Well, I think this should be that last blog before I go back to M’sia. As the hostel will be going to shut down our LAN sys by the end of June.

I got my results for my organic chemistry and it was only a ‘B’ although I really wanted more than that, maybe an ‘A’ .But I still wanna thank God for everything: healthy body, safety, alertness and etc. I still have 3 more papers and the one that I fear the most is physics (because of the unfairness of a lecturer). But I just trust in God and believe that in all things He will Bless and lead me.

The other day after our 1st exam, me and Afni finally did it. That is to walk all the way from our uni back to our hostel. In the beginning, Chai was also with us but when it came to the little hill that we have to walk everyday, he just gave up and took a Mahsrut instead. All in all it took us around1hr. But I don’t think we will be doing it again these few days, as the temp is rising, unlike the other day where it was very windy.

To everyone, please continue to keep us in prayers as we still have exams and there are much to study and prepare for it. Love U all and God Bless, cya soon.

Pi-ri-rive

Pi-ri-rive is the right word to use in Russian (meaning having a break). Now as the exams are nearer, everyone is studying hard for it, especially the first subject is Organic Chemistry – the toughest of all with many chemical equations and structures involved in it.
Chai (roommate) – just now, he went to boil water to make a cup of Nescafe and lied down on his bed while waiting. Even before the water was boiled he already fell asleep.
Lee (another roommate) – this one lagi canggih, he always sits on his bed while studying, while thinking about some chemical structure with his pillow in his arms, he ended up falling into dream land, playing chess with ‘chao gong’.

My floor is the only floor with all first year students. So really thank God because when there is an exam, all of us also have, so the whole floor is quite and filled with fragrance from chemistry books. But now, I kinda train my biological system to be awake in the night, because I prefer studying in the night when it is much quieter without any distractions or people walking in and out (because my studying table is just beside the door). So now I usually sleep around 1-2 hrs in the afternoon and sleep around 3sth in the night but still got to train my body to wake up early in the morning also, around 8sth 9 (don’t worry mum, I will take my multi-V and stay healthy).

All of us just can’t wait to get through all these and go back to where we came from. So to all my readers, please keep each and everyone of us in prayers. It’s already 2.30, I need to finish up in my studies before I sleep God Bless ;)

All the best also to Shaun, Evan and Hannah for the upcoming semester exams.
To Cecilia, enjoy your new semester with great challenges and also to equip yourself with knowledge, enabling you to help more people.

Ivan the return........

Ivan the return is getting nearer, I just can’t wait for its release on the Live Theater in Malaysia. Well, as our final semester exam is getting nearer all of us are just being very focus on it, hope that God will Bless everyone of us accordingly and also with good and fair examiner. But of course all of us as medical students are not “Face Book” , every night at 9pm is our CS night, all of us will just take out around 1 to 2 hrs of our time to play CS and relax. So to everyone, please keep me in prayers as I prepare myself for exam and my returning to Penang.

Being here for around 10months I just wanna thank God for loyal friends and the wonderful love being shown by them but all in all my family is still the best, they have been very encouraging and supportive to me. To my beloved friends, see you all soon back in Penang. God Bless and take care ;)

.........continue

Well…….so to continue the interesting incident

As my friend approach them, my heart beat started to increase. He just went near them and gave one of them a push from the back and we just walk off, thank God they didn’t fight back. At that instance when the boy was being pushed, I could see that he was scared but after that as we walk off they started joking among themselves again. Well, so this is basically the town that I am living in and have been here for almost 9 months already. So, it’s actually not dangerous for girls but more for guys because rape case and snatch thief seldom occurs, rather more often it’s gang bully and fighting. So, it’s my everyday prayer that God keep us safe and lead us out of trouble, giving us a peaceful heart and joyful spirit. Take care my friends, no matter where you are and May God give you peace in your heart and joy for the spirit too, God Bless ;)

Paint-Ball

Oucchh……but it was fun, interesting and full of excitement. Initially, me and all my group mates wanted to be in the same team against others that campur aduk one, but there were changes in the timetable of our playing time, so ended up there where only 10 of us and we divided among ourselves, although there were not many of us but we all had fun. Btw, playing paintball here is much cheaper compared to M’sia. It just cost me rm50 to play with 100 bullets. Ivan’s score: 5 kills and 3 death.

Please continue to keep me in prayers and pls do keep in touch with me also.

A humble life i live..........

Past 2 days (Thur), me and my friend Kok Sien was on our way back from lecture. And there where 2kids in the bus (around 10yrs old) and me and Kok sien whom is also a Penangite started speaking in Hokkien and these 2 budak started repeating whatever we say and laugh over it. Of course we didn’t even give a shit of what they were doing. So, here comes our stop and these 2 bdk went down on the same stop as well. Isshh………they started calling us Babi Cina pula (which floor of hell lah did they learn that from??? I guess on the 18th floor la), come on lah…….. how am I gonna bear with that???? But I didn’t want to do anything but just to shut up as the kids here are infamous for fighting (and of course to fight, we will beat them flat even to the extent that even their own mum can’t recognize them), but I just wanna keep out of trouble as my purpose in Russia is to get my Medical degree and to stay in the presence of God. So, we got down from the bus, my friend looked at me ‘an chua???syok oh???? Me: ta tiok beh syok la’ so we went on and crossed the road, my friend started walking to their direction and then…………………(to be continue on Tue, hehehe……..)



Prayer request:
Ivan is going through detoxication from a deadly venom, so please keep me in prayer, thanks ;)

Blessed and Happy Birthday to Papa and Hannah !!!!!!!! Seeya next month

See U next Month

“Ivan, see you next month!!!!” these are the very words that my mum told me yesterday. I guess I am not the only one being so excited to go back. Mum is also glad that she can finally say that sentence to me ;)

I have been traveling a very long journey, picking up some new lessons on the way and doing some things that I find joy and excitement in it. The other day, I and my group mates had the opportunity to see a live autopsy of a person died of lung cancer. Being able to witness the whole session from the beginning to the end is really something very awesome and cool, it gave us a better understanding of Anatomy and the Human Body. So to smokers out there, Stop smoking!!!!! Your lungs will really be very black, covered by tar.

48days more than I will officially be back in M’sia. Honestly, I am very excited to go back and meet everyone but at the same time I am very fearful. Fearing to witness and accept things that have changed to something bad. I don’t know if I am able to deal with it or not but I guess I should just eliminate all those worries and focus on the promises of God ----- Abundant of Blessings from Him. So to friends that I love ------- See you next month !!!!!


Jin and YK, thanks for being a faithful friend abroad of mine and always keep in contact with me. I feel Blessed and appreciate it, God Bless and till we meet again ;)
