Wassup Homies!!!!

had a good 1+hour phone chat with my homies...or rather homie...
since one of the homies is in Australia...
kinda far for a 1 hour chat out of the blue...
phone bills....
anyways....kinda happy and stuff lar...
like how she's recommiting her life back to Christ...
but that's not to say that she's a backslider like i once was la..
but..it's good to periodically take a step back and look back over your life..
to check if your main focus is still Christ..
it might have shifted over the weeks...or months...
like during the exams...it'll prolly be focusing on Studies..
and Friends...and everything la...
i mean...you might not have meant for that to happen...but it just happens la...
the same way as shit happens...
it's a matter of finding out that shit has happened and to do something about it before the shit hits the fan...
yeah...something like that...
corrective measures i guess...
yar...so...*ahem* we should all do reviews on our own personal walks with the Lord..
and make corrections whenever the need be...
heh..
i've grown more in that 1 hour talk...
i love my homie...or rather my twin...
man...
love her...
sheese....
*beams*
one of the best girlfriends a girl could find..
it's like i totally understand...or maybe 90% of what she's saying and she kinda understands what i'm saying...
so...that's good!

Chasing Pretty Rainbows

Are you tired of chasing pretty rainbows,
Are you tired of spinning round and round,
Wrap up all the shattered dreams of your life,
and at the feet of Jesus lay them down.

Chorus:
Give them all, give them all, give them all to AJesus,
shattered dreams, wounded hearts, broken toys.
Give them all, give them mall, give them all to Jesus,
and He will turn your sorrow into joy.

He never said, you'd only see sunshine,
He never said, there'd be no rain,
He only promised us a heart full of singing,
at the very thing that once brought pain.

ps...i'm trying to look for this song...if any of you guys have it....holla k?

i feel like a samurai...
with a tail sticking out...
*pouts*
without tying...it looks something like this length...

even my brother calls me lao da...
*sighs*
went to meet aileen and gang for some after cell drinks and food...
i was drinking and they were eating la..
:D
had my dinner at home...and reached there after they ended cell...
but all was good tho...
new people in cell...
shoutouts to kelda and shawn...tho i don't think they'll ever get to read this
no worries..
:D
anyway...seeing the cell people again...
i realised that if aileen is a mother bird...
she has already seen a lot of her little baby birds fly away from the nest...
yeah...
looking back..and counting the people that have left...
i feel sad...
some flew away from the nest to seek other pastures...some flew away because of NS..some flew away without a reason...
:(
the initial cell members were Aileen, Jing, Alicia, Peter, Xiangyu, Candice, Cheryl, Andrew, Jeremy, Kimberly, Nigel, ShangJun, Nicholas, Ruikun, Jessica and Me......
people that are currently regular cell goers that are part of the initial group are.. Candice, Andrew, Kimberly, Jessica and Aileen...
it's sad how we all left one by one...
starting with an excuse of not having time to go...and then..disappearing altogether..
but i'm happy for those who've found solace in the empty spaces left behind by us...
i hope they grow there..
and i wanna be part of that group again..
i really miss them...
i want to turn back time..but it's impossible...
i know i've grown alot since i joined the cell group...
i hope i continue to grow...
but growing up is hard...hard to grow without a person by yourself encouraging you...
i need a cell...
seriously...
and i think returning to where i came from is good...
i might have a church vs cell conflict...
i don't know about that now...
but...let tomorrow worry about itself..
i like all the new blood in cell now...
they're nice...
joe is very very very funny...hahaha
same pattern as me...haha
we talk tons of crap...
i wanna go back to cell...i'm serious..

Vive la sua vita come un sogno

i've been waiting for this moment for ages...
since the day i decided upon going into NUS in fact...
but...
the thing is...
how now brown cow??
i've got admission into Applied Chemistry...
the question is...Do I really wanna be in Applied Chemistry?
and i have to give them an answer soon...
i wanted to do Drug Chemistry at first...but because of a certain A level degree in Biology that i do not have....
i can't...
and seems that i'm short of a certain LSM1301 General Biology module too...
so it's prolly Materials Option or Pure Chemistry --Organic Chemistry...
should be doing Materials Option in Applied Chemistry...
but still undecisive...
ahhh...
fickle-minded ol' me....
blah...
i need opinions...
someone...
HELP!!

Dear Students:

Please find attached the admission list for the Applied Chemistry Program. I think that you made a good choice. However, the program needs your active cooperation and your enthusiasm and input in order to be more than any other teaching program.

In order to plan for the course, I would be thankful if you can again confirm that you will join the course. I will then forward your names to the Dean's Office so that your major can be changed to "Applied Science".

Also, please inform me soon about your desired choice as I will have to coordinate with the Department of Pharmacy how many extra students they will have to cope with. Last year, we had 16 students in the Drug Option.

I know an old lady who swallowed a fly.
I don't know why, but she swallowed a fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a spider;
It wiggled, and jiggled and ticked inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a bird --
How absurd to swallow a bird!
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled, and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a cat --
Imagine that! She swallowed a cat.
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled, and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a dog --
What a hog, to swallow a dog!
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled, and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a goat --
She opened her throat, and in walked a goat!
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled, and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a cow --
I don't know how, but she swallowed a cow!
She swallowed the cow to catch the goat,
She swallowed the goat to catch the dog,
She swallowed the dog to catch the cat,
She swallowed the cat to catch the bird,
She swallowed the bird to catch the spider
That wiggled, and jiggled and tickled inside her.
She swallowed the spider to catch the fly,
But I don't know why she swallowed the fly.
I guess she'll die.


I know an old lady who swallowed a horse --
She's dead, of course.

Ode to nice guys

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you
But make allowance for their doubting too,
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream--and not make dreams your master,
If you can think--and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breath a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings--nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much,
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And--which is more--you'll be a Man, my son!


--Rudyard Kipling

our job as christians does not mean we go around sharing our life experiences as christians...or the differences in our lives when we first accepted Christ.
instead, our job is to let other people know Christ as what is written in the Bible.
it's like if you go around proclaiming the peace you've found in your heart when you accepted Christ, what makes you think that the guy doing yoga hasn't experienced peace in his life, and that through yoga he hasn't found his purpose in life?
then the whole thing becomes a 'my daddy is bigger than your daddy' competition.

Forgetful Lucy Lyrics

The Hukilau was the place
Where I first saw your face
We liked each other right away
But you didn't remember me the very next day
Forgetful Lucy
Has got a nice caboosey

I used to trick you into pulling your car over so we could chat
But my favorite time was when you beat the shit out of Ula with a bat
Then we drove up to see Dr. Keats
And found out why Doug always has to change his sheets
Forgetful Lucy
Cracked her head like Gary Busey

But I still love her so
And I'll never let her go
Even if while I'm singing this song
She's wishing I had Jocko the walrus' schlong
Forgetful Lucy
Her lips are so damn juicy

How about another first kiss

--50 first dates song....nice song!!! nice show!! funny show!! romantic show!! nice nice nice.... watched the show with jeremy and kok keong and his girlfriend...

bringing people back to Christ doesn't mean you nag them back to Christ...
bringing people back to Christ doesn't mean you're only concerned about their walk with the Lord...
bringing people back doesn't mean you bombard them with questions, not waiting for their answer...
bringing people back doesn't mean you tell them what to do...
bringing people back means you listen to what they have to say...
bringing people back means you tell them what you can and let them make their choices..
bringing people back means you shut up and be their friend...
bringing people back means you show concern over their life and wellbeing...
bringing people back is challenging...
bringing people back is to be firm and yet kind...
bringing people back is to be nice and yet stern...
bringing people back is to be friendly and yet not overly friendly...
to joke and yet to be serious...

Devotional for Friday May 14, 2004:
How to Love God


Greg Laurie
Senior Pastor
Harvest Christian Fellowship

"Jesus said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' "
Matthew 22:37

When Jesus said that we are to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, we need to understand that to the ancient Hebrews, the heart referred to the core of one’s personal being (see Proverbs 4:23). So to love the Lord with all our hearts means to love Him with all of our personal being.

Also, the word Jesus used for “soul” in Matthew 22:37 speaks of emotion. It is the same word Jesus used when He cried out in the Garden of Gethsemane, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death.” So, loving God includes our emotions.

But then, Scripture tells us that we are to love Him with all of our minds. This word, “mind” in the original language corresponds to that which we would usually call “might.” It speaks of energy and strength, but also of intellectual commitment and determination.

So you see, to love the Lord includes every part of our lives. We love Him with all of our hearts in the deepest parts of our being. We love Him with all of our souls, with our emotions. But we also love Him with our minds. We love Him with our intellect. We love Him with our ability to reason. We love Him with all of the strength that is in us.

Now it seems as though some people love the Lord with all their minds, but they are afraid to express emotion to Him. There are others who love God, but seem to operate on raw emotion. We need to find the balance. God wants us to love Him with every fiber of our being.

had a very weird dream last night..
dreamt of someone...
someone familiar and yet in certain aspects unfamiliar...
oh wells...
saw a very very old friend/aquaintance/crush just now..
i basically smiled at his elder sis...and ignored em after that...
haven't seen them since secondary 3...
we once learnt taekwondo together...but i disappeared after getting what i started out to get...a frickin' black belt....
it's been awhile...
and after a such a long time...sometimes...even the simplest 'Wassup!' seems hard to say...
so..i chose the easier route...the route of retreat..
and the worst part was that...we bumped into each other from the market all the way to ntuc..
and yet...no one spoke a word to each other...
guess that's the end of it...

i've got more things to blog about la..but i was surfing some arts site...and i saw this advert for Kumar's show Not Guilty...
i like this sentence that he said...
"This show is about me, my background, my career, my life. Of course I will joke about it, make the audience laugh. After all, most of them will come for the Kumar they know. But at some point, the joke will stop. If the audience continues to laugh, I'll know my whole bloody life is a joke lah." --Kumar--
gonna watch Bangkok Dangerous later...
looks promising...
gotta collect a cake tmr...
hmmm
anyway...update...i didn't watch Bangkok Dangerous...because was talking to my german classmates online...mass online conversation....very blur..
and there's 3 new words i learnt yesterday...

DC Talk :: What If I Stumble::

Is this one for the people?
Is this one for the Lord?
Or do I simply serenade for things I must afford
You can jumble them together, my conflict still remains
For holiness is calling, in the midst of courting fame
Cause I see the trust in their eyes
Though the sky is falling
They need Your love in their lives
Compromise is calling
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
What if I lose my step and I make fools of us all
Will the love continue?
When my walk becomes a crawl
What if I stumble, and what if I fall?
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
You never turn in the heat of it all
What if I stumble, what if I fall...
Father please forgive me for I cannot compose
The fear that lives within me or the rate at which it grows
If struggle has a purpose on the narrow road you've carved
Why do I dread my trespasses
Will leave a deadly scar?
Do they see the fear in my eyes?
Are they so revealing?
This time I cannot disguise
All the doubt I'm feeling.
Everyone's got to crawl when you know that
you're up against a wall, it's about to fall
I hear you whispering my name you say
My love for you will never change never change
What if I stumble?
What if I fall?
You never turn in the heat of it all.
What if I stumble, what if I fall?
You are my comfort, and my God.
Is this one for the people, is this one for the Lord?

The Enemy

got a glimpse of some of the rampant thoughts that have been going through my parents heads for the past few months...or maybe they have even been running amok since j1...when i first told em that i wanna be a christian...
ha..
one of the thoughts was...
DOES THE CHURCH FORCE YOU TO GIVE A PART OF YOUR MONEY TO THEM?
note: the Bible encourages us to give donations or tithings...but it was never FORCED..
it's through your own willingness...
yeap...got that explained out to my mum...
next was the question of whether i go to a catholic or a methodist church..and what's the diff...
note: they are recalling the incident of Pastor or wadever his title was Kang...
got that semi-explained out too..i'm not too fluent with words...
another question is...what do i do in church? am i in some cult or something...
*bwahahaha* this never fails to crack me up...a cult....bwahahahaha..
anyway...told my mum..that no...we do not wear cloaks and hoods and gather in a circle surrounded by candles and chant...lol
man...the thought just cracks me up...

oh...and Foo Chow Methodist is gonna be checked out-ed by my mum...
hahaha
she's gonna ask around about that church..
:D
nah..don't think there are any dirty lil' secrets available..
but me mum says that if she thinks that this church is "not-up-to-standard"..
she'll make me either quit church..(no idea how you can do that..) or change church..
and i told her that i could always return to FCBC...
:D
see...
all taken care of...
but the thing that i'm most afraid of is...
she's gonna use Christianity against me...
or rather..
when i rather sit back and relax or slack from mopping the floor or whatever...
she'll prolly say something to the extent of "not practicing what you preach"
and that's it..
i've got no comeback...
so...
for the sake of the Lord's name and reputation...
I CANNOT BE LAZY...
to any Christian who knows me...you are hereby allowed to whack me ONCE when i'm being to be lazy...

Onward Christian Soldiers...


+ 11:39 PM +

Bleah bleah bleah

Blogger has a new look...
and it feels weird...
anyway...
i walked to Ikea from my place and then to Anchorpoint...
and i wanted to take 61 to H.V...but....i couldn't be bothered to wait for 61...so i took 123....
and...
that stupid bus almost brought me to Orchard instead...
bah..
had to alight at Holland road...
the opposite end of Holland...
and take 106...
damm...
can't take shortcuts...
but on the other hand...
throughout this misadventure...
i realised that hopping on the wrong bus is like Life..
people tend to take wrong paths, or try to look for the 'supposedly' shortest path to your final destination...
but they're all wrong paths lar...either that or they're deadends and stuff...road blocks...loads of obstructions lar..
but you see...God doesn't make paths with no way out...
He doesn't make roads leading ONLY to the final destination..
instead...there is ALWAYS a way out...
either an exit by the expressway....or a U-turn...
or for the case of taking a wrong bus...
there's always Other buses that will bring you to the place that you're supposed to be....worse case scenario would be to cross the road...and wait for the same frickin' bus and start the whole trip again from point zero...
you may think that time has been wasted and stuff...but...at least you learn that 123 doesn't go to H.V...
oh...and another point...i figured out...
God doesn't stop you when you make wrong turns or stuff...
He doesn't offer you advice..
He'll be just sitting on His throne above watching you fumble with the turns and stuff..
unless...
YOU ask HIM for help...
YOU ask HIM for directions...
YOU go to HIM for advice...
that when He'll start talking...
He doesn't want to be known as a meddlesome ol' nag...
nagging at you...He wants YOU to know that YOU need Him in YOUR life...
He wants YOU to come to Him for advice...He doesn't want to chase you around your whole life trying to give you advice that YOU THINK YOU DON'T need...
:D
somehow...this whole thing reminds me of SIMS....
it may seem that God is like us when we play SIMS...
and that He controls us...the same way as we control the characters in SIMS..
but the one thing that's different is that...
He gave us choices...He gave us a brain and mind to think...
We are so much better than Sims...
I mean...we can choose to disobey Him...
but...Sims are basically following our instructions 24-7..
currently...i'm not playing Sims anymore...
there's no kick...my character has attained the ultimate environment for living and working...no more challenges...
no kick...
that's why i seriously hope that we aren't treated as Sims characters by God...
imagine lar...
suddenly one day...God gets bored...
then..
that's it...
we're gonna be uninstalled from his desktop or something....
then...we're gone...
that's bad..
and i'm talking nonsensical stuff...
suffering from heat stroke maybe....
:/
anyway..i bought me mum a birthday cake...gonna collect on thursday...1kg Concord from Sweet Secrets...the Chocolate Banana cake from Secret Recipe looks great...but it's $55...i've got not enough money... :/
anyhow..the Concord looks nice too...lalalalallalaala
and i went to Cold Storage...and spent $50 on groceries...
not too sure what i bought tho...
gotta check later...
and i'm tired...
gonna take a nap now...

good stuff...

We do not fight FOR victory...
instead we fight FROM victory....
shall just cut and paste the conversation i had on IM with XX...
then...
i'll add extra points...
:D
too lazy to retype...maybe will retype it tmr or monday...
ein_tintenfisch: then we learnt today that we are fighting FROM victory...not fighting FOR victory
ein_tintenfisch: cuz Jesus already won when He died on the cross for us
ein_tintenfisch: yar...
ein_tintenfisch: so we don't have to be afraid of anything...becuz Jesus has already conquered them before
ein_tintenfisch: there's nothing that He hasn't conquered...
yapxx: carry on...
ein_tintenfisch: erm...and...that....
ein_tintenfisch: the Devil lies to us...and makes us feel that we have TONS of troubles that are SOOO horrible and SOOO big and huge and unsolvable
ein_tintenfisch: then we will start wailing and crying and wanting God to give us blessings to overcome em...when ALL the problems that we faced have already been faced before
ein_tintenfisch: so there's no point actually worrying about em...
ein_tintenfisch: becuz it's all been done and experienced by our Lord Jesus already
ein_tintenfisch: so...
ein_tintenfisch: yeah...

had a talked about the difference between complacancy and contentment too...
in short....ultra summarised version...
complacancy = being a spoilt brat...
contentment = being thankful for all the blessing that you've got....

Somebody

I want somebody to share
Share the rest of my life
Share my innermost thoughts
Know my intimate details
Someone who'll stand by my side
And give me support
And in return
She'll get my support
She will listen to me
When I want to speak
About the world we live in
And life in general
Though my views may be wrong
They may even be perverted
She'll hear me out
And won't easily be converted
To my way of thinking
In fact she'll often disagree
But at the end of it all
She will understand me

I want somebody who cares
For me passionately
With every thought and
With every breath
Someone who'll help me see things
In a different light
All the things I detest
I will almost like
I don't want to be tied
To anyone's strings
I'm carefully trying to steer clear of
Those things
But when I'm asleep
I want somebody
Who will put their arms around me
And kiss me tenderly
Though things like this
Make me sick
In a case like this
I'll get away with it

The past comes back to haunt me...

guess what...
i thought i was soooo over him...
the crush was soooo long forgotten...
everything was just a passing memory...
was just surfing friendster...

everything was ok...
until...
i saw this...
"i want Somebody to share, share e rest of my life, share my innermost thots, know my intimate details, someone who stand by my side, n give me support n in return she'll get my support, she will listen to me, when i want to speak about e world we live in, n life in general, tho my views may be wrong they may even be perverted, she'll hear me out n wouldn't easily be converted, to my way of thinking in fact she'll often disagree but at e end of it all she will listen to me...."

What a wonderful world

George Huff is out...

i like him alot...
he's always smiling and grinning away...
he's like the A.I version of Happy...the dwarf..from Snow White...
man...
it was a tough decision between Jasmine and George anyway...
anyway...watching some crap show now...
last episode of For Love or For Money 2...
never even caught an episode of it...
but i guess it doesn't really matter...
because all you have to do is to catch a couple of minutes of the last episode...

now..all i need to know is....
which guy will the girl choose....
hmmm...

and the girl's not even THAT pretty...
oh wells...

i feel like i'm playing stocks...
or rather watching the rise and fall of the market...
been checking the exchange rates for the AUD and SGD since monday...
first...up means better rate...down means lousier rate..
so...
the market went up....then it came down...then now it's moving up again...
a blardy sin curve...
:D
anyway...yar...
just finished with the groceries...
really becoming a homemaker...
bought 1/2 kg of prawns...peeled them...sorted them...and they're now in the fridge...
bought 2 fishes....cleaned them...sorted them..and they're also in the fridge...
and i've already marinated my pork ribs for dinner and the duck is stewing nicely in the pot...
very tired...
*yawns*
and it's only 12.30....

Paper Boats

something's wrong...
can't really put my finger to it...
but something's wrong...

::listening to Nada Surf//Paper Boats::

Paper Boats

sit on a train, reading a book
same damn planet every time i look
try to relax and slow my heartbeat
only works when i’m dead asleep
been thinking and drinking all over the town
must be gearing up for some kind of melt-down
all i am is a body floating down-wind
what’s wrong?
nothing
are you sure nothing’s wrong?
yeah
but you’re sad about something
yeah
so tell me what
i don’t know
i can’t tell you
all i am is a body floating down-wind
as the express train passes the local
it moves by just like a paper boat
although it weighs a million pounds
i swear it almost seems to float
and as we pass by each other
our heads all full of bother
we can’t look, we can’t stop
we can’t think, we can’t stop
because we’re stuck in our own paths
and it’s the way it always lasts
but i need something more from you
