Amazing Grace

24 05 2007

Ever wondered who was the one WHO wrote this song ???

I had just finished watching the show Amazing Grace

It was a show that was about the life of William Wilberforce

I shall not spoil the show for those who would like to watch.  But it was very thought provoking. BTW, it is factual history and a true account .. It made me think, if God were to stir and give me a firey passsion for something, for something that was VERY UNPOPULAR with people, will i DARE to go against the poeple? and do something that is right , and called of God, and risk being unpopular and outcasted? Rejected and scrutinised??? What will i do ???

Depressing Times

22 05 2007

I Thank God for the New place, Its a Stay out camp, which explains why i’m still typing this. The people are nice and i get to do fun and meaningful stuff.

But recently, I have no idea what is coming over me, i have been losing MY STUFF! i just lost a very important card, which is quite serious, i really hope i do not get into any trouble for that. I mean i really felt like crying as i searched,a dn as i realised that i was gonna be late and so many other factors! There is also the pressure for me to try to let e people there have a Good impression of me. But why am i screwing up so much in the 2nd Day there?

What is happening ? I wanted to Shine, outshine if possible, but here i am in the shadows behind trying so hard to shine, only to trip over the circuit.

Falling down i taste the earth, The earth from which i was formed. The breath of Life that gave me life.

How then am i to stand up ? Struggling and ignoring the shredded knee, Stand Up!

ignore the taunts, Bask in the light and flip the switch.

Awaiting a miracle…

Today i learnt that in order for some one to Live someone must die.  Not literally, but in many ways, for a plant to start growing it has to start to die first of all and cease to be a plant, It must break forth from the skin, and deplete its nutrient stores. Like wise tomorrow will be such a day for me,

Tomorrow i will be reporting to a new phase of my life, something i will most probably be doing from tomorrow til the end of my NS term which will be in Dec 08.  Where am i going cannot tel… XP

CLASSIFIED

I Sit

Clothes estrew, mountain aclimbing, times awasting.

Time has come and time has gone,

Clothes go in and clothes go out.

Wash them again ,Hang them up,

Let the fluids flow out of their lifeless bodies,

Take time to rest, for the future is certain, days being ordained before you were born . Life goes round again and again. Time is a Quarter past 2. time is a measure of my life, seconds to minute, minutes to hours, hours, to days, Days to months, months to year. time and time again a measure of our life.

you hear the murmurs, of how they feel you are going to a new place, how they lament of the lot they’ve gotten, how sure are they of their lot?

My confidence is from Him.

Packing in and packing out, life is but a journey, different flights at diff times, planes go up, planes go down, some come and go silently, some with a bang.

how then are we to treat life ?

Dear Concerned Student,
Sorry, I am not allowed in schools .

Sincerely,
God

How did this get started? Let’s see, I think it started when Madeline Murray O’Hare complained that she didn’t want any prayer in our schools. And we said, OK.

Then, someone said you better not read the Bible in school; the Bible that says “thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, And love your neighbors as yourself,” And we said, OK…

Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn’t spank our children when they misbehaved because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem. And we said, an expert should know what he’s talking about so we won’t spank them anymore.

Then someone said teachers and principals better not discipline our children when they misbehave. And the school administrators said no faculty member in this school better touch a student when they misbehave because we don’t want any bad publicity, and we surely don’t want to be sued. And we accepted their reasoning.

Then someone said, let’s let our daughters have abortions if they want, and they won’t even have to tell their parents. And we said, that’s a grand idea.

Then some wise school board member said, since boys will be boys and they’re going to do it anyway, let’s give our sons all the condoms they want, so they can have all the fun they desire, and we won’t have to tell their parents they got them at school. And we said, that’s another great idea.

Then some of our top elected officials said it doesn’t matter what we do in private as long as we do our jobs. And we said,
tt doesn’t matter what anybody, including the President, does in private as long as we have jobs and the economy is good.

And someone else took that appreciation a step further nd published pictures of nude children and then stepped further still by making them available on the Internet. And we said, everyone’s entitled to free speech.

And the entertainment industry said, let’s make TV shows and movies that promote profanity, violence and illicit sex. And let’s record music that encourages rape, drugs, murder, suicide, and satanic themes. And we said, it’s just entertainment and it has no adverse effect and nobody takes it seriously anyway, so go right ahead.

Now we’re asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don’t know right from wrong, and why it doesn’t bother them to kill strangers, classmates or even themselves.

Undoubtedly, if we thought about it long and hard enough, we could figure it out.
I’m sure it has a great deal to do with…

“WE REAP WHAT WE SOW”

What kind of seed are we spreading ? Seeds of envy ? maybe discord.. or maybe immorality… It doesn’t come like a *snap*.. it creeps in….

 thanks to dankhong, check out the blogroll…. oh… and his uncle too..





An All time favourite.

Lau Di Fang Restaurant
Address: 229 Jalan Besar (at junction of Kitchener Road).
Tel: 6292 3593
Opening hours: 11.00am – 3.30am daily.
Price: Food from $1.80 per person.

 heres a lil trip down memory lane…..

This lil shop has been at this same place, since my grandfathes time, My grandfatehr brought my dad, and father brought me…

When i was young like 10 yrs old, the place was old and old school like very old furntiure everywhere, marbletop tables etc… then some crazy guy bought it over and the food sucked… then they came back and started over, now its just like old time….

Whenever i go there i go for the classic meal. which is cabbage , fried egg, and the stewed porkchop.  the short form being neng, chai, ba-pah.  meaning Fried egg, Veg and Porkchop.

i feel that his place brings alot of nostalgia to me, as its one of my favourite places to go out with my father. whch is not very often. and the food is cheap… i do try the other stuff occasionally but i love it the same ol way everytime. 

Deffinately not reccomended for those who are all worried about their diet and fod sanitation. why ? the food is calorie-laden, witha lot of starch and hidden fats in the sauce which makes the all the more heavenly…

and The meat and egg and stuff will be cut usinga cast iron scissors… which looks black… and rusty.. hence scissors cut…

 but look at me ! i’m not dead.. yet…

So go try by all means.. they aren’t paying me a dime for this..  but remember….. ASK ME ALONG!!!!





I Tried to sleep

10 05 2007

I tried to sleep, admidst the droning of my teacher,

Try as i might, my eyes refused to shut.

Tired was I , Boring was he, But i just hit a rut.

Time was ticking , i had a n excuse, to sleep and gain my rest from the times all lost. I could not sleep.

Then it ended, the time was up, now i’m here typing muck.

Should i swap this joyious moment? where I am plugged into the world ? or should i succumb to everlasting calls of the Z monster ???





i Sit

9 05 2007

Surrounded my coms and the influx of new energy that everyone has received via the internet. New joy once laid in deep slumber goes abounding in various ways, surfing, gaming, chatting, and lastly studying.

As the clock ticks by, the time seems to rush us by, the end of our close encounter with the outside world just but fleeting moments. times where i try to catch up with the outside world. eventhough it is but a few metres away, seperated by a formidable gate of iron and lights.

Bound by duty to keep the camp safe, i have to do my duty, keeping watch at all times. Unless the LORD guards the city,The watchman keeps awake in vain. So what am i up guarding for ? hahaha how i wish i could use that . So i’m sure i’m not up for nothing.

Time maketh a mockery of all things around it. AS you enjoy the times of fun and laughter, time runs away from leaving a gap that so many have to fill.

this is something i’m trying out try writing on atopic, and do not stop to edit, or change the words, just continue for a while and write everything and anything down. even if you digress by all means.. its quite fun… lol





Time is …

4 05 2007

Ever hear someone say ,”lets kill time.” ???

so just WHAT is Time ????

Time is money.. Time is unit of meausrement… Time is hours  and number of revolutions the earth makes around the sun.

True…

But have you ever considered that Time is a measurement of YOUR LIFE ?

Therefore Killing time = KILLING YOUR LIFE.

I’m not saying that people drop dead the instance they kill  time.

But if time is a unit of you life, do you want your time do just go down the drain ???

 i was reminded of this simple truth of life as i’m in camp, and my time in camp is litereally coming to an end… 6 wks have gone by.. 2 wks  left to go. To where will i get posted again ? what will i be doing next ?

and indeed have i done anything purposeful here with my time???  or issit life ??
