Part of Life

We had an educational fair kinda thing in school today. Before that, I was in class talking to Ieqa, Azam and Arvin about our plans for the future. It got me thinking that, hey, we're gonna be in college in a few months time. It seemed like only yesterday when we were still playing those clapping games in class during Form 1 (yes, form 1). I still remember my classmates from a few years back and am really grateful that i got to see them change and grow into maturity, even though some of us aren't quite mentally here yet =p

Today was the last day of Chemistry tuition for some of us. No more being the noisiest table throughout the year, no more stupid jokes, no more making fun of the teachers behind their backs. Next year will be a new bunch of friends, new surroundings for us who will be leaving Miri, a whole new level. Just kinda sad to leave that all behind.

Only a few days ago, I was chatting with a childhood buddy, Christon, who's over in Kedah now (I think). We were talking about how we used to be as kids many years ago. How i used to bully him and stuff, heheh! It wasn't too long ago we were chasing each other around the house, painting eggs for Easter, comparing whose feet were bigger.. err. Heh. It's cool to see how far we are in life now.

A lot of people have asked me 'So, where will you be next year?' Honestly, i still don't know. There's a chance for me to be in KL, i could be staying in Miri. Wherever it is, i know i'm going to be where God wants me to be. My classmate, Greg talked to me today and he said something about being a missionary. Well, why not right? But even going to college is almost like going to any other country doing God's work. I believe we're all put where we are today for a reason. Where we will be next year will be God's plan for us. In fact, we were all called to be missionaries in one way or another. Missionaries in school, in our work place. Everywhere we go there are people who don't know Him and these are the people we need to reach out to. One thing that i regret the most is not talking to my friends in school about Jesus Christ. Now, i only have less than 3 weeks left with them and everyone is so busy preparing for SPM. The only thing i can pray for is an opportunity to share with just one person about Jesus' love for us even in this short period of time that's left.
