It’s Time to Repent.

It’s finally Sunday. Weeks after weeks just passed in a blink of an eye. I can’t really explain my feelings right now but as far as I know, it’s not good. The answer that I need is only a yes or no but I still can’t get an answer. Everything shall be normal and the same for both answers. Trust is what we need. That is all. Anyway, last week, after attending the mass at St.Louis, I went to Starbucks to have a cup of coffee at Starbucks for free. By printing out a coupon and presenting it to the cashier at Starbucks, we will get to enjoy the freshly brewed American Coffee (tall). Yummy! Thanks to Dominic for the info about this promotion.

Starbucks is the best place to chill and forget about everything. I can visit Starbucks all the time back in Malaysia with all the various type of drinks we can have. Dishearteningly, here in Moscow, there are no Java Chip or Green Tea which I like the most. They do not have much varieties of drinks here. But still, the feeling will be there for Starbucks! I love you so much which I can just crawl into Starbucks everyday!

My second cup of Starbucks here in Moscow. Going for more soon! My coffee overflowed as I added milk into it. The cup became dirty but still, it’s Starbucks! Nothing can beat you down! I live to drink coffee! It’s bad for health but I don’t really care. Live life as happy as we want to. Do whatever we want. I believe in this statement where it stated that, ‘ We do not have to do what 99.9% of people does’. Just stick to your own route.

Those are a few pictures on the interior design of Starbucks here in Moscow. I seldom go out nowadays as I got lots to catch up in my studies. Besides, I don’t get enough rest during the weekdays so, it’s better to stay back in my dorm to rest. Shall update more soon. There are lots to blog about but time just flies here. Time is so precious which I have to spend them wisely.

Till the next post! See ya! <3

Welcome Back Darren!

It has been some time that I’ve last posted up a new post on my poor little blog here. And now, it’s time to make this blog to go back to it’s original pathway. Well, life in Moscow is great actually but there is nothing perfect isn’t? I’m not going to touch anything about the cons anymore as it’s so sensitive so those people over here. Things go from mouth to mouth with the speed of light over here. Scary isn’t? It’s freaking scary. Anyway, I just don’t want to waste my time thinking about that anymore. My cell group has thought me to CHANGE and NOT TO LOOK BACK! AMEN! Yeah, that’s freaking true. Praise the Lord. He is the one who sent me to this track and I know, there is something that he wants me to learn over here.

I’ve got no idea on whether any of you watched a video on Facebook where the pastor said, ‘ The new F word in this church is FORGIVE’. So, FORGIVE everyone. And, sorry to all those who I’ve hurt them since I was born into this tiny complicated world. Forgive me please. The two main chapters which really woke me up was CHANGE and NOT TO LOOK BACK.

Spring is here in Moscow but the weather is kind of weird over here as it has been snowing on and off for the pass few days. This made me feel that it’s not spring yet and maybe, I wouldn’t get a chance to enjoy spring too. I saw grasses growing by the road while walking to my university a week ago and now, it’s covered with snow again. On the other hand, I still prefer this weather as when the temperature changed to 4 degrees the other day, I felt like I’m back in Malaysia. I could even sweat at 4 degrees now! Am I going to sweat like waterfall when I’m back in Malaysia? Hopefully not.

I’ll be back in Malaysia this coming July and I managed to go to the airline office to confirm my ticket alone! I’m glad that I never get lost or didn’t manage to send the message that I wanted which is to confirm my flight ticket to the person in-charged at the office. Besides, I get to have a free sight seeing of a new place in Moscow. It’s Fruzenskaya. It’s had evening market over there and a Orthodox church too!

While I was walking, I saw lots and lots of strawberries. So I just get myself 500 grams of it. It’s sweet!

This was the Orthodox Church that I am talking about. As usual, I went in the church and I saw the ladies putting on their ‘tudung’s’ and I was shocked as I thought I‘ve entered a mosque but in the end, when I uploaded this picture on Facebook, my senior told me that it was an Orthodox Church. Lucky me.

After confirming my flight and the sight seeing part, I went for a short metro-hopping session. Metro hopping is when you stop at a metro station, get out from the station and have a look at a new surrounding. So, I stopped at Okhotny Ryad. I found a street with a few high class restaurants to dine in at. Not only that, as one of the restaurant was a Chinese Restaurant! I’m so going to dine in there some day! It’s going to be great. And here is a picture of it.

After that I went back to my hostel.

Verdict? I’m happy that I can study here. I’ll just do my very best to obtain enough knowledge to be informative enough in the future. There were some arguments last time over here but I did not look back into it anymore. I’ll just grow to be a better person as time passes by.
