Life as a student in Moscow

STRIVE HARD...PRAY HARD...I need hotline to call for help..HEAVEN's AMBULANCE...is there any?

First time going overseas on my own...its a really really really super duper overwhelming experience that i guess only RUSSIAN FOREIGN STUDS will get to experience...(there's the beauty and the beast side of this place name MOSCOW!)
They have beautiful sceneries,and building architectural and food so so la..and people...hmm...they are majority almost can be compared to the crazy always changing weather here in Moscow..but if u get to know them better they are nice people existing here..but neway students here just slowly manage to blend in with the lifestyle here..so beware MALAYSIA...there are many well trained studs with ex- soviet union trained hard core...hahaha...
Moscow is a beautiful place indeed...here let me show you the RED SQUARE...(pic frm SIM photography)
I've been here for four years till now...I've learn to appreciate things around me...experiencing the real WORLD...and the best thing I get to know that GOD is always by my side guiding and strengthening through out my hardship here..THANK YOU GOD!!!count my blessings...=)
Had a really great experience starting from the day we group 13 members step foot on Russia's airport...Sheromatova..NIGHTMARE comes...
first time.. as you can see we are prepared for winter eventhough its still october..



we manage to keep ourself smiling..



1)our luggage went missing
2)reach to a really abandoned hostel..
3)room without light bulb,door without door knob,toilet where the toilet bowl is shaky,bathroom with flooded floor and tap that is not working..
so..it definetly look like a old abandoned building
Pic above actually was taken from one of the orphanage in Russia..hehehe(i was exagerating but it gives you the idea how our toilet does look like)
4) guess what...our agent was trapped in another building..he was to afraid to get out of his room to help us due to some dumb hostel's reasons....what a little pussy of him..(sorry couldn't help it)
GUESS WHAT>.....the best thing...nobody knows our existence...yah..so we are the few survivors that is still hanging on now..THANK GOD for my great great friends and their supports..love u guys..muah muah


Things got better though...God bless us with a really really comfortable and strategic hostel..SPARTIVNAYA...its so convenient that we just got to cross the road to reach the rinak(market) we are blessed! aren't we?!after going through so many probs and paper work with help of our Father above everything seems to just go in order..



















my current room now..=)

Had a really great time with new fellow members of MMA..mostly conquered by Malaysians...things get more organized..with great student association..o_* and the best of all Malysian Fellowship...i miss the old gathering though...its good to have fellowship with bros' and sis in CHRIST...share stories and love and testimony and encouraging each other..HEART!

WE visited many beautiful parks in Moscow...thanks to SIM..or else we wouldn't had done so..exploring Moscow is one of the best thing to do rather than clubbing or shopping...:P


We had fun activities held by MF..picnic and outing...

Even though i still do whined a lot bout MOSCOW...but i guess i will miss this place in the future...many more great experience had yet to be experienced...
Student life here kinda boring..(exams come like bullets chasing you..) that freaks me out till i had to take a break to blog...besides my engine shut down..trying to fix it...I've to end here..got to continue studying..
(do not turn back or give up..hope for a better future..i believe God is good and His love endures forever..)


PS:study hard..and PRAY cuz The Lord listens to you 24/7
