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.

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.
