breakfast at tiffany's (:


say im such an oldie but i caught one of those films that i'd always wanted to today. and it was awesome:)
well. im surprised at my own verdict of the show, because really, it's a pretty silly show on many counts. both leads' personalities were not fleshed out significantly through the show and some scenes were well, at best, unrealistic. take this conversation for example (sorry i just have to get this off my chest>.<)

Holly Golightly: Well, when I get it(the mean reds) the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany's. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there.

and in my heart, the first thing i thought of was a robbery. hah. okay, too much hk dramas.but you get my point.

despite this, i realised for all its blatant silliness, the show was really more than what it might have seemed at first glance. in a sense, it made me want to believe in love again. it showed, even without being realistic, (and perhaps even more clearly so in all its irrationality), what love can be (or should be) in reality.

because at the end of the day, it isnt about who you are, or how you feel about yourself. when all is said and done, love is no longer about the individual's life and instead seeks to see how this attractive force can bring two as one.

Yet the former holds an appeal tt the latter can never achieve.could it be, that at the end of the day, we are, in fact, more aware of reality than we realise? The former, perhaps, more achievable than the latter?

one reason why i love my pastor.

says my pastor on proverbs 31:30 "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." "so guys, before you decide to go out with a girl, take a look at her grandmother first." of which my friend promptly said to me, "shawna,we have hope now!" :)

morning bites

A long read, but a timely one, when life threatens to go out of control. The selfish side of me wishes this never caught my eye but God certainly has his sense of humor; his timing, like they say, is beautiful and I chuckle to myself as the true reality dawns in these waking hours. There couldn't been a more apt way to start the day.:) 10 tips for faithful sleep-deprived living http://www.matthiasmedia.com.au/briefing/library/6089 / 10 tips for faithful sleep-deprived living JENNIE BADDELEY / BRIEFING #388 / JANUARY 2011 / SHARETHIS Sleep is one of God's good gifts. Most of us chug though life without thinking much about it, which is usually a sign that we're getting enough. But for some of us, that blissful enjoyment of the half-regarded treasure we know as a ‘good night's sleep’ is shattered for some reason. The effects of sleep deprivation are substantial. A lack of sleep overshadows all aspects of our lives, including how we go about seeking to follow and...
