For you, Kaun

Remember this?


Even as you prepare, I admonish and exhort you with two verses; they are familiar verses, but spoke with an otherworldly eloquence on the night 'Coming Together, Building Each Other' was unveiled in July 2008.

I remember them till today, and hold on to them ever as strongly. May they aid in preparing the way for you as well.


Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win.

Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.

-- 1 Corinthians 9:24-25 (NASB)



As you literally run, remember these words. Our strength and victory comes not from the favour of men alone, but from the grace of God.

Let us continue fighting for the imperishable wreaths.

This is in no relevance, but I remember clearly the first time meeting the both of you, plus the 3rd college mamak w AJW. July 2008? Ahh, the Ben-Kaun connection...

I miss the Ben-Kaun chemistry too...

Btw, has the Easter Production been approved and has a confirmed date?

Li Ern: That was in 2008, seems like years ago, and yet not so long ago. ;-)

ABL: Easter, not yet even confirmed what's going to happen.

Yup Ben, time flies...

I'm waiting for Easter updates too =)

Haha yeah. Sabah isn't on my travel list for 2010 at the moment, but I'll be visiting Sarawak, insya-Allah.

So if I fly east, it shouldn't be too difficult to make a stopover at Sabah.

Time to ajak people.

(BTW tentative time of travel: July/August 2010. Dry season is good for visits to the mangroves.)

I'm good after July the 18th if I don't go to Singapore Thailand. =D

Jia said...

my school Panitia Bio has planned a project to go visit some mangrove swamps in july/august! ;)

SimianD said...

Jia,

If possible, do let me know when exactly you're going, and to which mangroves.

Can plan trip so as to coincide. ;-)
