Lepak day!
Ok today was just awesome. Finally after a long time, i could let my hair down and just spend time with people (Abel and Ben) cos tmr no sch!!! Haha. Well we actually planned to meet at 6.45 at orchard mrt but that stupid abel phone died so ben and i could not contact him!! We ended up searching for him around orchard like mad but still could not find him after 45mins. Then all of sudden, i think i heard a voice from God saying that he is still waiting for us on the platform. I hesitated for a moment but decided to just trust God. I tapped my ez link card and felt kinda wasted cos i have to waste like 60cents just to go back in and out of the platform again. Haha 60cents only what!! haha. Ok, to cut the whole story short, i found that stupid abel sitting comfortably on the platform bench. I was super angry and scolded him upside down!! We went to search for him for 45mins and he dint even bother to go to some public phone to call us. But if no public phone ard the least he could do is to borrow someone's phone and call us right?? Anyway, we wasted 45mins, FULLSTOP! Alright after that long long search for Abel Son of benny, we went to orchard ion and did some window shopping. It was funny cos every shop that we went to are either too expensive or just not up to our standard. Oh ya i saw one cardigan at CK tangs which costs ard $435!! Haha all along i thought CK tangs are for uncles and aunties but i was proven wrong today. Their blazer alone can buy one fender guitar already sia!!($1050) haha. Too much is too much. Anyway i bought a semi-formal shirt at Edit today and i thought it was kinda unique cos its like a formal shirt with hoodie on it. Super cool and its only $49.90. So ya meet my budget. And im gonna wear it on gemmy. Ok im super tired already....oh ya tmr will be a busy day for me cos got rehearsal...kk bye world!!

Getting sunburnt is not funny.
Ok im super burnt after sat's soccer competition. Mind you, i sat under the sun from 12pm to 5pm ok!! I have to jaga the juggling competition la! But anyway i think my job is very simple cos i just sit there and lepak with ben!! I think i dont like being red because i just look funny and outcast. hahaha. I dont understand why some people kena sunburn but they still look pretty much the same. Whereas i look like some drunkard. haha i think im made differently thats why. Dictionary defines unique as "being the only one of its kind" and i really think im "ONLY ONE OF ITS KIND!!".Haha.Ok i just found out that blogger's time follows US time so that means everything that i post here is not the exact time that i start blogging. Ok my whole body is aching now. I think i better start exercising constantly already. Im losing stamina like mad!! Ok i need the bed now...i wanna sleep ahhhhh!! sleepy sia!!!

Jon is Back!
I've been praying for a childhood friend of mine whom i have already lost contact with ever since he went to Rtc. That was like 2 years ago when i first made that prayer. And after which i think i've lost faith and decided not to pray for him anymore. But just now on msn, he greeted me and told me that he's out from RTC!! We exchanged phone numbers and i told him that we should meet up soon. Im lost for words now. I really believe that God will answer my prayers. I really want to see him burn and shine for Jesus because i truly believed that his testimonies would be much greater than many of us in church. I know this is my moment to do something. God if you are willing, then im willing. God please use me to do something for you again...Please save Johnathan!!7:56 AM
wa this is imba man! Best performance from radiohead! Watch the part from 2.28sec onwards. Fooyoo!

This Love by lincoln brewster. Love the meaning of the song!
One love to overshadow every other loveOne love to break the darkness
One love to overcome
Oh Lord
Your love it burns as fire
Brighter than the flame
As surely as the air I breathe
As surely as Your Word's alive in me
I'm held oh grace remind me
As surely as the stars above me
Life eternal waiting for me
And I owe it to this love
One love beyond the heavens and deeper than the seas
One love will be forever greater than my need

I am feeling super lousy this week, I donno why but i think its because of the flu virus. I had to leave school halfway today cos i really cant concentrate. I kept on sneezing in class and my face became super pale. So i looked more like a ghost today. haha. Well....i think that is just one of the reasons why im feeling lousy la. I donno but i think im kinda disappointed in myself. Sometimes i think people just have high expectations on you and when you do something wrong, they will just start shooting at you. But they have failed to understand that we humans do make mistakes and that is why we need a saviour like Jesus to redeem us from all of our wrongdoings. And i think being or calling yourself a rolemodel is also not easy because people will just find flaws in you and shove them in your face. But well...thats life i guess.
This song is power!

She was molested.
I witnessed a molestation case on bus 39 this morning. Apparently this girl from my school was molested by a bangla worker. At first i thought that the bus driver was trying to boycott SBS cos he refused to open the door when the bus have reached the bus-stop. I waited for like 20mins then the police finally arrived. Thankfully i was not late for school cos i took pictures of the incident and showed it to my faci. She was later convinced that im telling the truth. Haha! This is what i call critical thinking! Well i think i should upload the pictures and video later in the day. For now, i really think that molesters are disgusting! Oh ya physics was tough yesterday. But i should give credits to tutor lim though. haha.5:19 PM

I nearly broke my arm today!!
Bus 39 was super packed today thus i have to squeeze my way into the bus. I ended up standing next to door which makes me feel super duper sian. And so i plugged in my ipod and try to let the music take control of the morning blues. Then all of a sudden, the door suddenly flung open and my arm was caught in between the door and the handle bar. The impact of the opening door could have broken my arm but thank God it did not. I looked at my arm and realised that how something that i've took for granted could have been so different without it. My talents and everything could have been ruined by that stupid door.5:10 PM

"Better Part Of Me" by Course Of Nature.
Something says to me don't be afraidBut if I don't worry I'll surely slip away
I need to speak to you, hear what you say
But if I breathe too hard I think I'll go insane
There's a part of me so insecure
Of all that I could have and all that I've gone through
If there could be a way through a better design
I'd probably screw it up and let it slip away
Well I wonder if I stayed here would you become a better part of me
I can say now that you changed me and I've become a better part of me
I am the strongest I have ever been
The very thought of you can't even comprehend
The safest bet for me is to focus hard
And try to face myself I can't take it anymore
I hope I'm everything
That I need to be
You are my everything
So I'll just stay.
I found this song in my ipod and i don really know how it ended up there. I find this song quite meaningful and positive cos it talks about how someone can change your life and make you a stronger person. But too bad i cant upload it here cos this band is unknown. haha. No one really talks about them in the music scene. Well...i'll be the first then cos i believe good music has to be spread around.

Should I celebrate halloween??
Dr. John BarnettDiscover the Book
"Let everyone who names the Name" Paul said, avoid iniquity. Is Halloween a celebration of iniquity? Read on and judge for yourself!
Here are some quotes from what many different people have said over the years concerning the celebration of Halloween.
Someone once said, "For a Christian to celebrate Halloween would be as proper as a Holocaust survivor trying to celebrate Hitler's birthday." Yet so many believers continue to do so without considering what they are doing. Excited children masquerading as witches, ghosts, goblins, skeletons, demons, and other grotesque characters skipping through the neighborhood knocking one doors changing "trick or treat" while holding out a sack in which one is to drop a piece of candy or other goodies...the party at school, or church, or Sunday School where they bob for apples, tell fortunes, or go through "haunted houses"...decorations of jack-o-lanterns, witches on brooms and black cats with arched backs...IT'S "HALLOWEEN" - one of the strangest days of the year.
The word evokes a number of responses. Every year as October rolls around, there are those that look forward to it with excitement and those that cringe and wish it weren't there. Some argue violently against it, some yawn because they've heard it all before, may just look the other way and go ahead with it. Some view it as an abomination, while many others view it as a harmless tradition. What is Halloween, or Samhain? What does it represent? And, what should the Christian think about it, if anything?
Where did this fast growing American tradition come from?
History provides the answers.The pagans believed that on one night of the year the souls of the dead returned to their original homes. "There was a prevailing belief among all nations that at death the souls of good men were taken possession of by good spirits and carried to paradise, but the souls of wicked men were left to wander in the space between the earth and moon, or consigned to the unseen world. These wandering spirits were in the habit of haunting the living...but there were means by which these ghosts might be exorcised."
To exorcise these ghosts, that is, to free yourself from their supposed evil sway, you would have to set out food - give the demons a treat - and proved shelter for them during the night. If they were satisfied with your treat, it was believed they would leave you in peace. If food and shelter were not provided, or if they were not satisfied, these spirits, it was believed, would "trick" you by casting an evil spell on you and cause havoc.
So Where Did The Elements Of Halloween Come From?
Trick Or Treat. "The modern custom of 'Trick-or-Treat' began in Ireland hundreds of years ago. A group of farmers went from house to house begging food for the village Halloween festivities in the name of their ancient gods. Good luck was promised to generous donors, and threats were made against those who would not give." 3 Thus these ancient pagan traditions continue today as youngsters, masquerading as ghosts, skeletons, and demons go "trick-or-treating" - begging in a sense for food while promising to refrain from evil deeds...
October 31ST. Though it was the Roman Catholic church who designated the October 31st date as All Hallow's Eve, or "eve of the holy one's day," in prelude to their November 1st All Saints' Day, it was earlier pagan peoples who gave the annual holiday the sinister meaning and traditions it still holds.
It is obvious that the elements, symbols, and traditions of the Halloween observance with its emphasis upon goblins and demons, witches and skeletons, ghosts and apparitions rising from cemeteries constitute a dabbling with the very things, which Scripture forbids to God's people and an open invitation to demonic activity. (Deuteronomy 18:10-13, Lev 19:31)
It is at this point that many will say, "But we don't worship demons on Halloween. It doesn't mean the same thing today as it did in the past. It's now just a harmless, innocent time of fun for the children and the young people."
Yet, history clearly shows that Halloween is unmistakably a "religious" (pagan and Roman) holiday. Religion is the adoration, obedience, and service rendered to the object of one's worship. It presupposes profession, practice, or observance of whatever belief and practice - in this case Halloween - as required by some superior authority. It is indisputably clear that Halloween is NOT commanded or sanctioned by Jehovah God - the true Christian's Superior, Authority - in the Scriptures.
What Should We Do?
Sadly enough, the biggest opposition to what has been said invariably comes from within professing Christendom. The witches, the occultists, and the secular sources all freely call it like it is. Note the following quotation from a contemporary witch. "Most of Christianity's holy days have their basis in pagan ritual. I get myself into a lot of hot water when I remind American Christians of that fact. No matter, it's true. But the level of tolerance is rising."
If we believe God's Word, then witchcraft is something that exists and is hated by God. It is an abomination. All occult practices are, and they are under the divine condemnation and wrath of the eternal God. Should the redeemed of God, His children, have anything to do with that which presents Satan? Should children who "are an heritage of the Lord" (Psalm 127:3) be dressed up like witches and ghosts and goblins in light of God's displeasure? 1 Thessalonians 5:22 says, "Abstain from all appearance of evil." The Amplified Bible puts it this way, "Abstain from evil - shrink from it and keep aloof from it - in whatever form or whatever kind it may be."
The true child of God should be identified with the pure and holy Jesus Christ. With "love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance..." (Galatians 5:22-23), not with the powers of darkness and evil. The witch, earlier in this article, clearly states that it's their holiday, their celebration. History bears that out. Christians, have nothing to do with this. It can only be dishonoring to the name of our Lord.
Today Halloween is the highest of all celebrations for Satan worshippers, witches and the occult. Christians need to be warned so they can take heed and obey the Word of God. The apostle Paul wrote, "Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them" (Eph. 5:11). "Abstain from all appearances of evil" (1 Thes. 5:22). "Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God" (1 Corinthians 10:31).
