light purple & dark chocolate

you know what makes you fat in winter?

hot chocolate in a light purple mug, and dark chocolates on the side.

no, the colour of the mug doesn't make me fatter than if i had it in a blue one. It just so happens to be my biggest mug ever! And with special hot chocolate all the way from the US of A, that is one good light purple cup of hot chocolate.

Today's message in church was awesome! This pastor was speaking about how his church back in the UK felt like it was a virtual reality, and how he had to reinvent the church 10 years ago. Today their congregation number in the thousands. 

but anyway.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONICA!!!! I love you!!! 

not forgotten

you know how it's like to feel forgotten.

how you wait to see if people remember to wait for you 

when everyone has walked on ahead

you know how it's like to feel forgotten

when someone suddenly gives you a call

and you know it's not cause they missed you

you know how it's like to feel forgotten

when they talk about how they hanged out yesterday

and you're in the crowd, trying to look unaffected.

you know how it's like to feel forgotten,

SO DON'T FORGET OTHER PEOPLE!

don't worry.. I'm just reminding myself not to forget people. : ) and no, i'm not trying to look unaffected. if i was.. i wouldn't be posting this..

and i'm on my One week of elevens

One week of looking past myself

One week of putting other people first

One week of laying down my pride

One week of thinking about others

One week of helping other people grow

One week of doing what you preach

One week of kindness

One week of doing everything to the best you can

One week of putting in an effort to smile

One week to pull the focus off yourself

One week to put it back on Jesus.

One week of eleven. 

And let's all pray that this lasts more than one week! 

emofied

emo songs are no good for you.

no good at all..

but they certainly are great to listen to!

I mean I love the way some of them sing the song, how the tune turns out like. It's just so full of...angst? 

that's not quite the word. but something like.. here I go, scream my lungs out

you know the thing with listening to songs from bands that aren't even famous? I don't know, it's this unspoken, or already known thing that it's a cool thing if you've found an amazing band, usually alternative, that no one has heard about. And then we can go show our friends, and they'd think that you're uber cool cause you knew of them! I feel that way. I feel cool. Err. No I don't have a very big inferiority complex. 

Anyway, here are some really emo bands you might wanna give a listen. Don't listen to it, if you're going through a break-up that kind. It'll only make you worse. I might suggest some praise and worship songs for you.

21st of May, 2008

The recent spark of interest in blogging again is unexplainable, and I certainly don't see a need for it to be explained. Maybe it has something to do with Linus and his fantastic new blog. 

In any case, a very warm welcome to Mom and Dad, and congratulations on finding out about this blog. As you can see on the links to your left, you'll 

find Philip's, James' and Girl girl's one as well! 

(hoho guys, we're all in this together)

Just as a precaution, whatever is said here, is meant to be taken with a pinch of salt. And as a disclaimer, I love you both, Daddy and Mummy, very very much. 

I don't know, call it a block, but there seem to be a million thoughts running through my head every day, but when I want to write it down, they all run and hide. Like the amazing bacteria Staphylococcus Aureus (like I would know if I spelt it wrong), that are pretty awesome at hiding in the amazing body God created (Ng, Gavin, his notes) but of course have no right to be inside of you (unless it's a good bacteria, that God meant for be there..). So maybe start with what's new.

1) I got my P's! Which means I can drive LEGALLY, but safety wise, or sister wise, I still can't drive. 

2) I'm in my second last week of my 5th semester! I have altogether 6 semesters by the way. 

3) I can't think of anything much actually... I'm doing my Hebrew essay now?? Well I've a goal of being able to TYPE in Hebrew fluently. See, the letters are in different places. For example, 'ALEPH' is on the key "T". By doing this, אאאאא, I am essentially typing TTTTT, and I have no idea where my comma is. 

But that's just the problem of remembering and practice. 

4) What else is new.. oh, daddy and mummy, I got a lousy pass for my essay, but not to worry, the rest of my subjects are pretty decent. 

5) I can't discuss political stuff very well, and I'm feeling pretty inadequate at such political matters. Right now in tutorial we're discussing about whether Turkey should join the EU, or if the EU should accept Turkey as a member state.

6) For point SIX, I need God to start telling me what I should be doing after my SIXth semester... 

7) Can't wait to print my lomo pictures.. Now that it's winter.. the sun's gone pretty much by 5pm, so there aren't many pretty pictures to take that will turn out pretty on my pretty lomo.  

...

I just don't like to stop at SIX. 

Just for old times' sake.
