tash and i have been good, we stayed in to get some work done.

on a totally random note,

i play 9 crimes everytime i turn my ipod on, which probably is the most convenient nice song to start off with, since the songs are arranged in numerical, then alphabetical order. the first song on the top of my list is 2 rights make 1 wrong, but i always skip that one and go straight to 9 crimes, and the rest of the time my ipod plays on shuffle mode.

when i eat curry puff, i like to tear it open, dig out all the stuffings, use a fork and pick up all the potato bits, and eat them first, then the chicken bits, and lastly, i'll eat the crust on it's own.

insomnia is pretty common with me these days, just the other day, i woke up at 3.30, and wrote sarah a testimonial. ironically, my sleeping problems have nothing to do with my bug infested bed, at first i thought it was just because i went to the salvation army, but since the bites getting worse, i reckon it's got to be my own bed, i seriously need to do something about, i'm getting bitten all over, it's srsly itchy, i can't stand it anymore, i think it might just be the blankets though, since i still got bitten when i slept in the living room anyway.

my first band members were actually, pong, chern, jeremy, nic, clar. we sucked big time, (okay, you can leave the first two out of the picture). we used to have this joke that we were kimpong and the pussycats, and then we joked that we were nuns and moses.

i'm going to stay home tmr today to finish the million things i have to do. so whoever is gonna call me today, i'm not interested!

the few fruits i eat are pear, apple, banana, grapes, logan, lychee, rambutan, blue berries ONLY (with the exception of dried strawberries and dried cranberries). i absolutely can't stand watermelon and durain, espically both their smells.! eeek.

the umfs own two pets, one is a stuffed bear called scrumpee, the other is a fan called ashley, and we've abadoned ashley already.

f thinks pink is gay. i think purple is gay. and white is the nicest colour, i can wear white all week.

there are more people who call me cheryl now then cherz.

i meet a someone i know some almost everytime im on the streets. alice always tells me "don't tell me you know that person too!" dang, i cant believe i almost missed shaun the other day, if it weren't for clar, i'd literally had missed him. she says he looks different from the last time we met.

i like to buy mineral water along with my lunch/meals instead of tea or soft drinks.

mos burger is the best fast food.

starbucks than coffeebean
hagen dazs/new zealand than island creamry/ venz
bread than rice
white than black
mac than windows
gmail than hotmail

i'm relatively good at baking, im quite proud that i can bake now, and literally bake things that i would want to eat, i remember throwing away heaps of cookies in the past. on sun night, i baked a batched of brownies, i couldnt get the temperature right, it's over cooked on the outside, and under cooked on the inside, but dang, it taste so good even though, it's not baked right. oh well, i suppose i'll get it right on my second try.

i love music, i love the way it makes me tap my fingers to the rhythm, i feel like playing keys everytime i hear something good. sometimes, i can play tunes that are stuck in my mind, even though i dont know what songs they come from.

i laugh in the theatre to myself quiet often, just the other day, i watched a movie with sarah, but she couldnt open her mouth since she just got the teeth extracted. i'm sure she would have laughed with me. but sigh, why don't people have a sense of humor. laugh with me folks!

i detest two things, rudeness and incompetence

i want a gingy, and yes im willing to trade a gingy for a gingerbread man. i think my love for gingy has spread to many people, everyone wants gingy now, the first being f, then pew's wife, and cheryl y.

my favorite chord progression is 1 4 6 5. and my favourite key is Cmaj, so i don't hafta think. i hate it when i dont play a chord that progresses right. and i can't sing on the keys for nuts, i can sing on the guit though, it's way much easier.

i keep a lot of things to myself, im one of those who believes that if you have nothing nice to say, dont say. yeah, but i keep a lot of things to myself anyway. i think it's for the best, i tend to dodge a lot of things, but i still recognise the importance of dealing with them.

alice and sarah are the two people who understands me the best. i think i know myself really well, but still, it surprises me sometimes that they can know me better than my own self. and daren too for that matter, since he's always right anyway. like always.

i adore emo songs, travis, death cab, the shins, anberlin, copeland. actually i love almost any kind of music, since i love great technicality and you see the range is huge, from u2, the beatles, snow patrol, maroon 5, guns and roses, yeah yeah yeahs, radio head, king of convenience, smash mouth, rooney, jimmy eat world, hillsongs, steve curtis, seude. and i love coldplay for the keys.

at 16, i decided i don't need all those medical care they tell you, you need when you're old and greying, i don't want to be popping pills and vitamins a thrillion times before i die, it's all in the mind deary, they'll make you pay for everything you don't need. but since i decided this at 16, don't call me old and stubborn. and if i fall terminally ill, i certainly won't want treatment to prolong death, espically since you know that the last few years of your life would be awful and sickly, why would you want to be sick longer.

i like short fingernails, i've tried keeping mine long many instances because they look nicer that way, but they're so brittle they always break when they grow long, and then i'll cut them extra short, i guess i also like the way

one of my most visited websites is www.dictionary.com, whenever i come across a word be it online or in a book, i'd check it out, whenever i do some writing i like to use the thesauruses. i think auto-correct spelling makes you lazy, since you won't bother learning the word.

i actually have 3 sisters, heh, nic's a sister to me, really.

i can't wait for celine to leave secondary school, no more early mornings, no more screaming and yelling in the morning that she's running late.

i love the way, celine gives me little pecks on my cheeks to wake me up in the morning, it's so sweet, my little sister is finally growing up. which i much rather yy do, instead of bitting us and giving us hickkies.

i absolutely don't answer house calls, they're never for me, i can only think of one person who would call me on the house, NIC! deary, pls call me on my phone, so i know the call is for me, i'm utterly lazy to leave my room just to answer your call.

i'm feeling itchy all over, with bug bites covering my arms and legs. i've told magdeline to wash and sun the sheets and blankets all over again.

i still get very emotional when i read the papers, when something bad is reported in the papers, like an accidental death, or natural disasters, or famine and hunger, or unrest in countries. it totally spoils my day when im feeling sad.

the size of my pinkie is the same size as asher's second toe. i bet my mum's pinkie can match his third.

my favourite all time television show is f.r.i.e.n.d.s, i can die laughing in my couch.

i love the way nic has all her cool new rebuts, and the way she does her anti climax thing! you've totally got to teach me it's damn funny.
how's the soup?
ask the pot.
aiyyeee, the anti climaxes are the funniest, it's just a thing you do. typical.

i wish to stop practise designing eventually and do something totally different. which reminds me again of how fast i lose interest in things, that i never become really good at them, designing is probably one of the longest things i've stuck to. but yeah, i figured, i'll never have what it really takes to live the life of an artist, since i enjoy being sane most of the time.

i drink two big cups of earl grey every morning, it's been my morning perk ever since i've started trying to ween myself off coffee again.

from f,

ahem. because someone, ahem. mentioned that i havent blogged in awhile and i have totally no inclination to talk or rant about anything and still fill up my blog so here goes.

i stole this from chers.

duh! she's so into Germany. how does pink come in?

my latest addiction,

Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah they were all yellow,

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called yellow

So then I took my turn
Oh all the things I've done
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
D'you know you know I love you so
You know I love you so

nugggh! it's always been about what needs to be done, and it just almost every possible time has to be cheryl (even though it can come in subtle ways, implying im the best candidate, doesn't that almost put me in a position to oblige? ) , hello dudesy, apart from accomplishing those things, i need to strike my balance, i still need to spend time with my family and friends, and when there's school, i need to finish my work. it'll be nice for a change if someone asked what i wanted.

sometimes i wonder if i'm hitting on a brick wall, i've always been the one encouraging, i need some encouragement too, and when i say encouragement, i mean i'd like to see my work bear fruits. i'd like to see more faith and confidence in the people i believe in. i'd like a reason to hold on to, so that i know i'm doing the right thing.

dude, we're so on different frequencies.

i guess we needed someone to whip us back into place. and you did just that. individually, and technically, all of us has grown tremendously, playing stuff we couldn't even imagine playing back then. together, we are the worst we've ever been, we've been so detached from one another, we no longer understand each other, and have what it takes to play together.

are we really musicians or christians first?
indeed we were christians before we became musicians.

i owe several people an apology,
ash, im sorry i walked out on you. and yes, i chose to do it out of selfish reasons, i've been so muddled in my personal affairs, i figured that you would do fine on your own. i'd wished you talked to me abt these things the way we used to, and i'd wished you had held me accountable for that.

nic, im sorry too. thinking back, i made you several promises before you left, and i didn't keep them. in some ways, i withdrew myself, every time i played with the band, i felt empty when you're no longer behind my back swinging your bass at me. and while i was grumbling abt all the things back home, i should have known how hard a time you were having adjusting, after all i've been in that same position before. i'm so sorry, i'd wished we had talked abt that too.

as for gbof, i think we've found all our faults slapped on our face. there's a lot to make right, not just with god but also one another, and even more, our homes.

pong's also right, i can't be driven by guilt.

me & my geeky glasses.
ernest says i should have stopped wearing glasses a long time ago!

it's funny, i see an uncanny resemblance i never noticed before.

note, we dont teach them this.

i'm home! & i brought back the sunrise with me.
i thought i would be able to wake up each morning, take a stroll and sit by the beach watch the gorgeous sunrise, but i could never wake up early enough, or i was off somewhere ferrying the kids back to their respective villas, or to the breakfast house. these shots were taken by wee seng.

first you go all emo on me, and then you pick a fight with me almost over no apparent reason. i would understand if you're having one of those bad times, and not want to talk about it. but seriously, your actions tell me otherwise, surely that petty fight didn't justify for you not answering my calls for a few days. what am i suppose to make of that? i was actually quiet worried, that you're brooding in your emo state again. you don't even have the decency to at least let me know that you're alright.

when you finally picked up, you say that you didn't pick up my calls, because i was calling you for no specific reasons, & that you're okay, just frustrated over something that has nothing to do with me and not wanting to talk abt it.

with that all said, i let it all pass. sarah asked me today, if im okay with staying knowing i'll be in an awkward position, i said yes! because i'd like to believe that everything would be okay again, if we put this weird behavior behind us. but why are you still avoiding me?

i'm going up the wall because i have no idea what this is all about, at all! if it really doesnt have anything to do with me like you said, what calls for this weird behaviour! i'm trying to make all this right before i head off tmr, but you dont seem to be bothered at all. you want to be this way, fine, be that way.

shot by jaymz, and i thought the earth doesnt move very much, but all it took was a 12 minutes exposure to see the movement of the earth, werd huh! the white one's actually jupiter.

LOL.
i remembered the funniest thing! i used to read books in the toilet, but not like when i was doing my business. instead i choose to read in the toilet, like how everyone has a reading spot, normally, i think you would choose, a sofa, your bed, or perhaps starbucks or something, but i chose an empty bath tub!

a book for faith,
something i lost sight of a long while ago.
& that v6.


Hebrews 11

1Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. 2This is what the ancients were commended for.

3By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. 4By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did. By faith he was commended as a righteous man, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith he still speaks, even though he is dead.

5By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

7By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.

8By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. 9By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. 10For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

11By faith Abraham, even though he was past age—and Sarah herself was barren—was enabled to become a father because he[a]considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

13All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance. And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. 14People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. 15If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. 16Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.

17By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had received the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, 18even though God had said to him, "It is through Isaac that your offspring[b] will be reckoned."[c] 19Abraham reasoned that God could raise the dead, and figuratively speaking, he did receive Isaac back from death.

20By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.

21By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of Joseph's sons, and worshiped as he leaned on the top of his staff.

22By faith Joseph, when his end was near, spoke about the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt and gave instructions about his bones.

23By faith Moses' parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king's edict.

24By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. 25He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time. 26He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward. 27By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the king's anger; he persevered because he saw him who is invisible. 28By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch the firstborn of Israel.

29By faith the people passed through the Red Sea[d] as on dry land; but when the Egyptians tried to do so, they were drowned.

30By faith the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them for seven days.

31By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient.[e]

32And what more shall I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel and the prophets, 33who through faith conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and gained what was promised; who shut the mouths of lions, 34quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. 35Women received back their dead, raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused to be released, so that they might gain a better resurrection. 36Some faced jeers and flogging, while still others were chained and put in prison. 37They were stoned[f]; they were sawed in two; they were put to death by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated— 38the world was not worthy of them. They wandered in deserts and mountains, and in caves and holes in the ground.

39These were all commended for their faith, yet none of them received what had been promised. 40God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.

my latest addiction.
she knows the right words to pull your heartstrings.

apparently, it's more than you and me you're killing, somehow we always manage to forget the cockroaches.

i love surprises (: uncle earl passed me a package of patches of old cloths, and i absolutely love the prints. lol, even though i have quite a few pieces of patterns to work with, i still can't find enough to match together the image i have in my mind. it's either, this pattern doesnt work, or i'd wish i had larger prints, or sigh, why don't i have a zipper, or ark! i dont have the right buttons. i'm working on these purses for now, of course they'll have a nice finish after i buy the straps and zippers, and hide the raw edges. if they turn out well, i'll move on with bags, hopefully i'll make a couple by the end of june.

also, my imac has hot sexy lips.

& 2 emo songs on the keys.


No more talk of darkness,
forget these wide-eyed fears;
I'm here, nothing can harm you,
my words will warm and calm you.
Let me be your freedom,
let daylight dry your tears;
I'm here, with you, beside you,
to guard you and to guide you.

Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
that alright with you?
If you don't shoot it how am I supposed to hold it
Is that alright with you?
Give my gun away when it's loaded
Is that alright with you?
with you.
