What would you do...
if you've got no real family?
if you've been living a lie?
if everything you've known is false?
if your closest friend has been keeping a secret?
if you found out you were abandoned?
if you find yourself living a movie plot?
it's in times that you think there's no where else to go, no one else to turn to, that God's love shows itself so strongly that you just get swept away. it's when you know, Jesus is the only one who will ever be all-loving, all-true, all-present, and all for you.
Thank You Jesus.

New Year, New Style.
well, the new year is approaching really soon. so i'm gonna make changes to my life. starting with this blog! reading back, i realised my blog entries are rather boring as i'm always holding back so as not to offend anyone. well, that's not gonna be the case anymore. come 2009, i'm gonna express my opinions openly. (i am a highly opinionated person, in case you didn't already know). so if i do offend you, jus click the 'x' at the top right hand corner of the screen.
so do expect more controversy, more about what i REALLY think about the things around me. BTW, i analyse people and things, ALOT. so i happen to know alot of things even if no one tells me. it's OBSERVATION. and i'm not gonna be afraid to write it down. no more being sweet and nice and happy about everything. it's time to start sharing MY VIEWS. if you disagree, here's what i have to say to you. "i'm glad we have different views, it shows that we're both thinking, and not easily swayed."
i've started this new style of blogging at lj already. i'm gonna tag my posts so you know exactly what i'm referring to.
cheers to a new start! (:

It's Christmas!
well, christmas for me has always meant spending time with the family, going to church and exchanging presents. this year however, saw it all so differently.
firstly, this is my FIRST christmas without my mummy around. needless to say, i really miss her and wish that she was here with me. it just feels different... like incomplete. and i havent sent out her christmas present yet! (it's really late!!!)
next, i had church on christmas eve, instead of christmas day. again, different from usual years. hahahaha. but as usual, the church service doesn't disappoint and the drama, candlelight service and christmas carols sure set the mood for christmas!
and then we have the oh-so-traditional exchanging of presents. well, i won't complain but it seems that the older you get, the less presents you receive. people just don't know what to buy for others and hence, most people just give money instead...
and this year something interesting happened. hahahaha. i had cramps, broke out in cold sweat and almost fainted while i was at godma's house... so i had to lie in the sofa and take medicine and sleep! LOL.
so anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! hope yours was a great one!
bye!

Conversations with Dad.
for the longest time, i haven't had a real heart to heart chat with my dad. and i've forgotten how much i really miss him, how much i really want to get to know him better. and of course, how complacent i've gotten, thinking that just by living together, a relationship would simply evolve.
i've been too lazy, and well, i jus havent made the effort to really talk to my dad. and i feel bad. the year's drawing to an end and though i do know my dad better, i still don't know him as much as i wish i would. i guess i've been too caught up with all my "important matters" that i completely forgot what's REALLY important to me.
FAMILY. blood is thicker than water, and i dare say this cos though my dad and i havent had the smoothest relationship, we manage to still communicate, still love each other, still accept each other. he's my father no matter what. and i love him and respect him for that.
come 2009, i'm gonna make a conscious effort to spend more time with my dad, talk to him more. i should stop taking advantage of the freedom he's given to me, and start placing him at one of my top priorities. after all, he is my father. and i love him so much.
i forgot how it felt to hug him. i forgot how it felt to hold his hand. i forgot how it felt to kiss him on the cheeck. i forgot how it felt to just look into his eyes. i forgot his love for me. i forgot my love for him.
it's time to start remembering, and acting on that rememberance.
goodbye.

2008..
well, i just finished making a scrapbook for my mum about what i've been up to in 2008. at first, i looked at the book, and thought i would never be able to fill it up. but den, once i got started, i realise that so much has happened, and i havent even noticed!
yes, 2008 has been a really eventful year for me. it saw me changing schools, making new friends, taking up new hobbies, joining a ministry, and many more. yet, i failed to capture all those precious moments, and had to even stop to think before i could recall it all.
i guess it jus goes to show that sometimes we're too caught up with all the chaos around, that we forget to stop, take a look at our own lives and realise how much God has blessed us.
it's time we all start counting our blessings!
goodbye.

Interest.
for me, it takes alot to hold my interest in something. here's why...
- i don't like watching, i prefer DOING.
- i'm a super fast learner, and i can't stand slow-paced "lessons".
- i need something new to learn all the time.
- i don't like doing the same thing over and over again.
- i like to be in control.
- i need to be able to achieve something.
- i don't play the popularity game.
- i need to excel in what i'm doing FAST.
- i always strive to be the best, nothing less.
- i lose interest once i've achieved everything there is to it.
more @lj.
ask me if you wanna know more,
i'll tell you if i want to.
bye.

Poems.
sometimes, feelings are better expressed in the form of poems. and i often find my thoughts becoming nothing but a poetic blur.

Looking Past That.
i guess sometimes we all have to look past certain things in life. like our shortcomings, mistakes, other people's mistakes. things we've done or failed to do. cos like it or not, life is never perfect. and honestly, a perfect life would be rather boring.
it's either we learn, make the right decisions and move on, or we get caught up with our mistakes and stay in them. i've moved on. and so should you.
it's time to stop looking at people the way they are and judging them for their wrongdoings and start looking past their wrongdoings and seeing the person they want to be.
it's what's in the heart that matters.
goodbye.
more @lj.

Prank Gone Wrong!
okay, so today in lcom class des and i were BORED. so we decided to prank Adam, using my phone. hahahaha. here's how the sms convo went..
me: Hi adam are u with that nerdy girl? she's my girlfriend......
adam: Tee hee. which girl? i've got a whole range.
me: i think she's in law...
adam: hmm. sounds familiar.
me: so are u with her?
adam: haha. nope. wads up?
me: better stop hanging out with her. i find u at business sch entrance. dont try to zao.
adam: let's get it on!
me: u damn daring ah. i will cut your damn hair. u and ur gay hair. flirt
adam: i've got big meaty balls to say that. there's no link in having long hair and being a flirt. but there is a link in having big juicy meaty balls and being a flirt.
me: watch out meatball.
adam: bring it frenchy.
of course, this was all done based on the ASSUMPTION that adam didn't have my number. so we thought, good prank and we were actually laughing to ourselves. LOL.
so anyway, des met adam after school and guess what, HE HAD MY NUMBER so all along, he actually knew it was us... and HE PLAYED ALONG. wth rite! HAHAHAHA... so LAME!!
hahahahaha. the things we do to keep ourselves entertained in class. LOL.
bye!
