Unforgetable Saturday~

Hey everybody,

Today is like any normal Saturday where I will go to church for youth at 745pm and have music practice after that for the next day service.

I was so happy seeing my guitar skills improving from time to time. I played slightly faster than before and I feel I blended better with our church worship team too. Besides, I see great improvement in terms of coordination and teamwork among the team too. I really want to praise God for that.

But something sad happened...

After practice today, as usual I keep my beloved electric guitar into its bag and off I go. Suddenly,

"BANG!!"

Everybody in the church turned around and looked at me and at that second, I realized my guitar is on the floor. I remembered I zipped my guitar bag properly earlier on and I wondered how did my guitar dropped anyway. I then looked at d bag once again to find out.

THE ZIP GAVE WAY!!!

Immediately, I picked up my guitar and looked for any damage caused by the fall. Here is the result.




A different angle view.


And some scratches at the knob and a little crack. Can't really see here though.

Ok, continue. In my mind I was saying to myself, "cham liao this time. No cure liao. It will be a very horrible mark there dy. Will my guitar still sound as good?"

Many of my church friends are waiting to close the door, so I didn't get to test the sound. So, I rushed home and quickly plugged my guitar to my amp. All the strings ran out of tune and I quickly tune them back. I wonder anything in the guitar could spoil or not. After tuning, the sounds seems like the same. I really hope it wouldn't spoiled so fast eh... Only 4 months old nia. Hmm. I would be grateful if some of you can leave some comments for any guidance. Thanks.


Anyway this is how my guitar look in whole.

May God's will be done~

FAQ:

Q: You already got a job?

Usually the answer is "no. I'm still jobless and still applying job everywhere."


Then the next question will be..


Q: Then what you do at home? Not boring?

Well, not that boring. I usually online (chat with friends), play game, hang out with friends, and also teach piano and violin every Wednesday and Thursday afternoon to earn a little pocket money. At times though, I do feel abit left out when friends already got job though.



Well, it all changes when I received a phone call at 6:35pm, 17 of November from Finisar in Ipoh. When I see a Ipoh number I knew it was Finisar dy because that's the only company I applied in Ipoh. I wasn't expecting that they would hire me as I felt I didn't do well in the interview which was held last week. Well, by the grace of God and help from a great friend (you know who you are), the answer from the lady on the phone was "the management has decided to hire you."

I was so shocked that I can't believe my ears. After almost half a year jobless applying here and there, this is the first job offer I got in which I have the least confidence in after interview. Like what the bible say in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10,

”but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities for the sake of Christ; for whenever I am weak, then I am strong.”

I just really want to thank God for His provision and really through this, I know that he hasn't forgotten about me. :D Now, I need to wait for the company to get some letter from UTP only they will issue a offer letter to me. So, the next struggle will be just about how I catch up with this new job. May God continue to guild me in this area too.

Glory be to GOD!!!
