funny how when the prodigal son walks away, with each footstep that takes him further from his father, he thinks that he has left him.
funny how our warped mentality decides that when we backslide it's because God has forsaken us and left us behind, when we are the ones taking steps away from Him.
funny how God would want to use someone who's so flawed and unsure of herself in Him.
What kind of analogy am I drawing from this?
The same incredulousness that has struck me about the prodigal son strikes me about His love for us.
I'm really, pretty overwhelmed.

Random thought of the day
I'm beginning to think that it's a good idea to have been born in the 60s/70s.
The only thing I'll probably miss is the internet. Other than that, hello vintage dresses, Andy warhol, disco balls and Carpenters!

Wet and rusting- Menomena






So Monday was Huifen's last day at BnJ :(
And I brought my camera so we decided to have some fun with it.
HF, I hope your repu is fully spoilt by now. And I got a sneaky suspicion that mine spiraled downwards as well.

I just realised I bought a top online that's one size bigger than it really should. Ah well. Let's just hope I'll somehow manage to fit into it nicely somehow. :)

Anyways, Van and I are really excited cause we're officially on our holidays. heh heh. NO MORE AD HOMINEM, PUBLIC AND MEDIATED LIFE AND PROJECT MANAGEMENT. yes ah.

I'm really looking forward to doing some serious wardrobe clearance ($$$), room clean-up, catching up with some friends, reading a good book simply because I haven't done so for such a long time, finding some decent music to listen to (believe me, I spend my free time going on Myspace and checking out bands), maybe getting a nice movie to watch at home and learn how to cook properly. Yes. Stop rubbing your eyes. I said COOK. It's about time considering I need to settle all my meals for 6 months alone when I go to Perth..cooking a decent meal is almost as vital as survival skills. And I do enjoy cooking, when my food doesn't get burnt or I don't die from the awfulness of it.

Btw, I'm listening to Nada surf and they're such feelgood music. Kings of convenience is nice too.Speaking of music, and good ones, I've always loved Hillsong. But I've learnt today that you don't have to have Hillsong or a good band up on stage for you to enjoy God's presence. It's amazing how He doesn't think the same way as we do, and even though the worship leader's singing out of tune, God chooses to linger still..cause He's after our hearts. I've learnt this such a long time ago..but today it's a reminder. That no matter where we reside, be it that we sing like toads or the insignificant kid in school that nobody talks to, He's looking, at our hearts. So guard it.

Hi everybodyyyyyyyys. (:
Firstly, it felt like ages since I last blogged but when I checked it was just 5 days back. weird city.
It's been a really packed week primarily cause I've been working quite a bit and also I have this mediacorp class going on. Haven't done much socializing. Think I'm becoming quite reclusive. HAHA.
Anyway, I would love to sound really poetic, insightful and intelligent but one can try so much when it's just an update of our mundane lives when we go about doing the same stuff like catching movies and eating subway sandwiches.
For those who didn't know, but I guess most of you do, I caught Singfest! It was great catching TAI live though personally I thought it wasn't their best performance. Gym class heroes and Cobra Starship were better. I really wanted to take a photo with William after seeing throngs of girl screaming and groping him, got into the fangirl mode really quickly. But I didn't get the chance to cause A)I was being pushed; B)I wasn't agressive enough. Was bummed about it for about a day. And the most irritating thing? Seeing people with backstage passes (i.e media people and lucky freaks) taking photos with Michael openly. :( Best part was, my best friend who DID NOT buy a ticket to get in, was sitting outside listening to the gig when she saw TAI coming out to get into the van. So very conveniently, she went up to them and talked to them and told them they were cute. (i'm not lying) @#$!!&^%@! What about this for 'unfair'? I caught almost every act except Crowned King, Hinder and most of Cobra starship cause I was out eating. But I guess the bands that really left an impression were Gym class heroes and MXPX. Well I guess you could say Avenged Sevenfold was good as well but it's just too bad that I don't appreciate their music so I don't have much to say about them. I don't exactly like punk rock, but MXPX was just really awesome. The noisettes can try changing their band name to The Noise, since that was what they were making throughout their set. I love Indie, but they're a bit too much ah. Screaming like a squirrel and all.

'OH I'M READY FOR IT,COME ON BRING IT!'


Michael and sisky business

THE William Beckett.

And I've saved the best for last.


Sorry I got too carried away. This's becoming a Singfest blog. hahaha.
GUESS WHAT HAPPENED TODAY?! I know I'm typing in caps a lot, I'm just too excited about things.lol. My mum was asking when I was having hols and stuff. So I asked her 'why?Wanna go holiday ah?' And I expected a 'no'. Then she said 'yea.me and your dad are planning to go.' So I thought they were planning to visit my uncle in HongKong or smth.
'Where?'
'Europe.'
'HUH?!WHEN YOU ALL GOING?I WANT TO GO ALSO!'
'expensive leh, one person $3,000'
'I don't care!!!!I wanna go Europe you must bring me along.'

So to cut to the chase, we've discussed and we decided that after my graduation would be a more suitable time to go since December is the peak period and that is coincidentally when I will be having my hols. So wait till next year when I'm free as a bird, I can spend 3 months touring or something. WOO HOO. Best thing is, they're rather convinced that we should go to HK this December.hahahaha.best of both worlds.

:)

Baybeat's ended and I'm suffering from sore feet. Not from the crowd or moshing la. From my black patent flats and 6 hours of standing during work. HURTS LIKE CRAPPPPP.
You can kind of tell I have nothing much to say right now. I'm listening to Aloha on Myspace now and if not for the fact that I heard them live yesterday I wouldn't have liked them. And I'm going for Singfest.Bought the tix couple of days back. My pay should be in and I'm working more these few weeks while I'm having my break. What else. I slept 12 hours yesterday night after coming home at 1 but apparently it's not enough cause I'm gonna turn off my comp soon and turn in.
Oh, but before I end off,

Zeitgeist - The latest album from Smashing Pumpkins.
GO GET IT.
