Food and Wine Festival

In conjunction with FINA, There was a Food and Wine festival held in Federation Square. Mostly every week an event is held here to cater for the tourist in Melbourne.

Me and my sister decided to visit this event last sunday after service. We started off at the chocolate lane, Here they were giving out chocolates to people to taste and they were great.

Then we headed down to the yarra river where the festival was held and we went to this tent where they were selling Spanish croissants topped with chocolate, and to make it worse we ordered Spanish hot chocolate. That was the best chocolate i have had so far.


Then we went up to the square area and there was a life cooking demo.


After eating all the chocolates, like a child you will get this contented face.


Then to end our day, we went shopping and this was a very good sign and thought I would share it with all my faithful readers.

How big is Melbourne?

After getting to Melbourne, I recon it was a big city.

Yesterday my experience change this thought.

Why?

Let me tell you why.

I was on the Tram getting back after work and was so tired. So I sat down and was facing the front of the tram, As I was talking to my new friend Lisa from England an old lady got up the tram and said to her old husband " I will sit down when someone gets off the Tram" Me being a nice young man got up and offered her my seat.

Now I was standing and talking to my friend and was facing the side of the Tram, and Lol and behold I saw this girl seating at the last seat of the first coach.

She looked pretty femiliar, Then i thought to my self it is impossible.
Then I thought "Why not just call out her name and if she answers then it will be her"
So I called out "Lee Anne"

The girl looked up and look straight at me, then she got up and came towards me and gave me a hug. And yes she was my neibough back in Malaysia and she attended ISCA and we went to the same church. I was totally suppriesed to see her here in Melbourne.

Now tell me how much smaller can melbourne get?

So I have another friend here, Looks like we can start a little Metro here.

Let's see who will be in this Metro group

1. Shannon
2. Jessice
3. Lee Anne
4. Becky
5. Justin

I think thats all it takes to start a cell group.

I am still so suprised.

Moomba Festival

Last weekend i was tied up at the moomba festival, also known as the waterfest.

This is held every year where labour day falls on the weekend. It was fantastic and packed
I made close to 500 coffee's a day, it was great.

I feel so tired now that it is over and wish to get some sleep. In Kl i can servive with 3 hours sleep and here I get 8 hours and it is still not enough. why why why????

Is is because the weather is so beautiful and cold? I always wonder why people overseas can sit in the hot sun and enjoy it, Now I know why. because you dont sweat and the wind is damm cold and you will look for the sun to warm up.

I have to go for class now so Bye for now.

Last Sunday

Last Sunday I mixed for service and usually if you are new anywhere someone will be by your side to make sure everything gioes well.

Well in this church They left me there and everyone dissapeard until after service, but by Gods grace everything when well and everyone loved my mixing.

Give God all the glory for the fine practice i had at Metro. Imagine mixing for 1700 members per service.

Last Last Sunday

Last last sunday pastor davis didi something that reminded me of Pas Ong. U know when we sing a hymm in service, then pastor will go up and sing it again at the end?

Pas david went up the stage and said "I am sorry but i come from a small baptist church, it will be nice if we can sing the hymm again" this reminded me of Pas ong and I felt so at home.

The Hymm was Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty.

Walking horizontally

Some people find it hard to walk vertically, how about people who walk horizontally. You must be wondering how do people do it? here people don't take the stairs or escalators to go to the next floor in the mall, they just walk up the walls, or the just walk down the walls.

When i say walk means they literally walk and not climb.

Take a look and see this is a whole new shopping experience for anyone.

Do you think people are crazy, it would be faster to take the stairs.

but these 4 ppl did it and it looked sooooooooo cool i am sure they had lots of fun.

It was like floating in the air with a wall next to you.
