the wizard of oz.

and what was i doing, actually missing out on all these for a good 21 years of my life? this show might be 60 years old, but to learn contentment and grasp the blessing that life bestows-- that's evergreen.

sometimes it's hard to decide.

get too close, and one's vision blurs. yet standing nonchalant in the distance only causes the unclarity to remain. what gives?

so go with the groove.

i cant believe it but for the first time in my life, i actually thought that dance was fun. swinging, bopping, hopping and basically just making a fool out of myself was not that bad when everyone else was doing the same and having a good laugh. and honestly, 5 hours after all that (which really didnt feel that long at all), i walked out of the doors having a new rhythm in me that almost drove me to start shimmying down the sidewalks at uni. something about the 50s that drives me to do things i would never imagine i would. (arent u proud of me, xin?:D)

like seriously.

in just one day, i saw two guys with boon's lookalike ah pek plastic slippers, with socks. walking on campus as though that was the most normal thing in the world. and they didnt even look like geeks! either the world's going crazy or there's some wardrobe disasters going on around here. hah.

when i say im a christian..

The word 'Christianity' has been thrown around so easily that sometimes i myself forget why i am a christian. im imperfect, helpless, and honestly sometimes i get on my own nerves, but God still loves me. and thinks this lump is worth it. first week of school has come and almost gone, yet how many people did i think was worth it, without first measuring them up to my own standards? When I say..." I am a Christian" I'm not shouting "I am saved" I'm whispering "I get lost, that is why I chose this way" When I say..."I am a Christian" I don't speak of this with pride I'm confessing that I stumble and need someone to be my guide When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not trying to be strong I'm professing that I'm weak and pray for strength to carry on When I say..."I am a Christian" I'm not bragging of s

so americans take their work that seriously.

so my housemate's project was to create an identity that will leave an impression on the teacher. and that's her showing off her moves. she's a seal btw, complete with sounds and the waddling movements. and should i add that she was painting her face in the bathroom earlier? classic.:D
And so i gave up on how i met your mother, till i caught the season finale today. "Ultimately, we only see what we want to see when we're ready to see it." its a hard one to learn, but i guess that's all part of growing up. and im back in the game! season 6 coming right up:)

self entertained.

is the subject entertaining himself with the tv program or is the person behind the lens finding entertainment in observing the subject?

when it's down to less than 24 hours..

too many memories, too hard to say goodbye.
