making sexist statements.

the female heart breaks more easily.
girls should guard their hearts.

anyway.

another one from el.


me: "i only have one sherlock holmes book."



being a big fan of sherlock holmes, the movie would either be really good, or really bad. there's no middle ground.

and my verdict is -

it was really good.

although robert downey jr. changed most of what sherlock's supposed to be, until the end of the movie, where he donned sherlock's customary red robe and bored look.

and i still think anybody who enjoys reading Detective Conan should try reading Sherlock Holmes.

tido, tomorrow classes, HEP, edmund bon, and on with the assignment.

funuraba!*



*kurita the lineman's favourite quote on eyeshield 21, another anime i think everybody should watch.

He's...

...the Lord of the ocean,
the Lord of the sky,
He's the Lord of the night breeze,
the Lord of my tea,
He's the Lord of the laughter,
the Lord of the tears,
He's the Lord of the good times,
the Lord of the bad times,
the Lord and
Master of
me.


in response to


But He said to them,
"Who do you say I am?"


Matthew 16:15



so what if i can't rhyme?
bleh.

back from camp.

i…

  • listened to a little girl say she wanted to pee for, like, 40 minutes on the bus,
  • walked across a bridge in a spaceman suit for dinner,
  • hiked up and down a jungle,
  • fell on my butt twice,
  • slid down a muddy path twice,
  • got bitten by five leeches,
  • flicked more than five leeches around,
  • trudged through a brown stream,
  • got sand in my already-fitting shoes,
  • climbed up a net,
  • crawled under a net while holding somebody’s leg,
  • got dragged up a wall,
  • walked across a log and sang do rei mi,
  • ran across a moving log,
  • was a floating loose rock from The Thing,
  • waged war against the Egyptians,
  • sat on my comrades’ blood,
  • made shiny golden claws from chocolate wrappers, and
  • put on 1 kg.

yup.

life is good.

=)

the need for certainty.


"the law is what the most expensive lawyer says it is."



sometimes a tiny part of me wonders what i've gotten myself into.

sometimes.

the need for change.

"change is the essence of life.
be willing to surrender what you are, for what you could become."


In most churches, passivity is a highly developed art. Tradition is revered. Change and innovation move at a glacial pace. Even the slightest change at church can make people very upset. Every pastor can tell you stories of members who've become hysterical over minor changes to a worship service. You might say that today's church is full of
passivity activists whose greatest energies are devoted to fighting change.

- Murrow, David,
Why Men Hate Going to Church, at p.71



i personally dislike change. if there must be change, i must be the one to bring about such change, not anyone else. and if change must come, it must be like a breath of fresh air, not like the air in a crowded bus. (ugh) reading this book has (so far. i'm a slow reader.) reminded me to question the things i say, and the things i do. am i opposing madness? or am i opposing change?

i will never love change. but the least i can do is to flex a little, and allow it to happen.

Wednesday 9 December 2009

what's with today?

my hands and feet are over-sweating.

on days like today,

  1. i can't play the piano, because too much energy is being channeled into producing sweat.
  2. i can't play the guitar, because my sweat would trickle into that hole thingy.
  3. i can't write, because my sweaty palms would tear paper.
  4. i can't walk, because i'd slip and fall.
  5. i can't eat chocolate, because they'd melt and merge with my sweat.
  6. i can't answer a call on nokia-san, because the battery might go 'pop psst bleh'.
  7. i gotta stay put and stop moving about so i don't have to keep mopping the floor.

bah.

at least i can still blog and play restaurant city! =P

anyway. i enjoy reading shaun's kawan's blog. lawak, yet profound in a weird way. try this and this.

amreeta said.

that you should reach that stage of indifference.

that's when you know.

i guess i'm not there yet.

ah well.

(ironically indifferent)

three.

One.

"hey guys, i'm going to jerusalem, and i'll have to suffer first, then be killed... then i'll be raised to life on the third day."

peter: "choy!"

then Jesus called him satan and said he was mindful of the things of men and not the things of God.


Two.

"hey guys, someone is going to betray me, and i'll be killed... then i'll be raised to life on the third day."

and the disciples were filled with grief.



why is it that nobody noticed the last part of the sentence?

or maybe it was too hard to believe.

i guess it's easier to believe in what man can do, then in what God can do.

i haven't come to the third one yet. maybe a few days later.

Six days away – the first four.

The good and bad in life leave something in us, but they also take something out of us.

Sometimes God brings people into our lives.

Day1_9


Sometimes He takes them away.

Day1_4


But life goes on.

Who you are in the last chapters of your life is shaped by what happens in the first chapters of your life.

P1020086


Maybe you feel that God is very silent in your life. Maybe you asked Him for answers and He isn’t answering. Maybe you don’t feel like anything’s happening in your life. Maybe you think life is too… ordinary.

Day1_30


Maybe it’s time to take a second look at that burning bush.

13634_182427902595_655427595_3030367_2484337_n


Maybe in the ordinary course of your life, there’s something special God wants you to look at. Not always something for you, but something for blessing others.

Day1_8

P1020226


And sometimes… there are things that we need to give up.

Image0747


Sometimes it’s when we’re quiet that we hear our heart.

P1020393


Sometimes it isn’t easy to capture who you are because you’re too focused on other things.

P1020326


Sometimes you manage to capture yourself, but… is that really you?

P1020353


Time is a gift.

Sometimes time flies. Sometimes it stops. When it does, maybe it is a time for our inner being to catch up with our physical being:

Hey. We’re finally… free!”

Image0744


The Place of Stop.

P1020158


i named my year, “First Adult Steps”.

in the last chapters of my life, will i be the true measure of the woman i am meant to be?

ah, i do struggle.

P1020178


but i have help.

P1020185


and, He did say,

P1020398

I will be with you”


P1020397

My rod and My staff will comfort you.”

- Psalm 23:4.


and.

Image0764



yup.

camp.

was definitely good.

Friday 20 November 2009

talking to myself, i realized:

it’s about the fun, right?

isn’t that why we’re doing this?

isn’t that why i suggested it?

if i get stressed over it, worry about it, plan every little detail till everyone else gets uneasy,

it’s not fun anymore, is it?

no, i didn’t upset anybody. i didn’t get upset at anybody either.

i just felt the stress creep in a little a moment ago due to the fatigue.

dad once said,

maybe we’ve all heard God speak to us. the reason why we don’t think so, is because He speaks to us in the voice most familiar to us – our own.

it’s for the fun. that’s why it’s called fun nite. ^_^

Image0681

thank You, Lord, for the little voice.

oh, and i just received more news of work.

ah well, since i’m on a roll, let’s just get it done in one day.

*turns on midnight oil lamp*

 

swee kit was right. remembering why, helps.

i watched The Secret by Jay Chou.

and then suddenly i could play So Close by Jon Mclaughlin, which I couldn't play before, because of the sharps and flats.

i think my mind has a... uh... mind of its own.

how strange is that?

***

on another note.

i'm doing the things i love.

eh?

or am i loving the things i do?

somedays, i feel like smiling the whole day.

which is easy, because i have bunny teeth.

bleh.

Monday 16 November 2009

finished Conflict of Laws paper.

"Talk to me, please."

"I am talking to you. I’ve been talking to you. Haven't you heard a word?"

"Sigh. I didn't understand."

...

"Can I do things my own way?"

"Do you know how to do things your own way?"

"...K. Maybe not."

"Then go back to listening."

***

aside from that,
i have finished my final paper. hee. the first question went like this:

 

Johan's Johns (JJ) is a Malaysian company selling toilet bowls.
They are a very successful company and they export 80% of their
unique rainbow coloured toilet bowls. Last year JJ entered a contract
with Louis' Loos (LL)...

 

ahaha.

Sunday 15 November 2009

must i choose?

i think there may have been three options all along.

two was hard enough.

with three, i may just wish the world ends after i decide.

i know God gave me a brain and a heart for good reasons.

but i wish He'd left instructions on what to do when they don't agree.


how come nobody else needs to choose? =(
