end of 2005

2005,

It's been an interesting year and thank you for all the 'wonderful' lessons in life that I had the opportunity to learn the hardway.

See you, 2005.


Love,
me.

what's the difference?!

It was 12:52AM and I got really hungry. So, I went downstairs to make myself a tuna sandwich. Ayam Brand; shouldn't be very bad cause most of their stuff are pretty good. I read the label and it says, "Seafood Spread". So, I thought, what kind of a nonsense is that? Tuna itself is already seafood and what's the deal with having another 'flavour' labeled seafood?

I understand the point of having flavours cause we could then have "Curry" or "Low Fat" or whatever but SEAFOOD? Hmm.

merry christmas

Merry Christmas to all of you readers and a blessed new year!

car accident

I was driving along Jalan Laksamana as usual after I dropped Ryan and Chris off the Nairs residence. Then I saw a dog by the road side. If you know how I drive, I always let go of the gas and brake a little in case the dog ran into my way. So, I did just that and I saw the dog turned the other way. So, I thought it's probably okay to hit the accelerator again. Of all the times and days in the world, the dog decided to turn back suddenly and ran in front of me.

So, dog + moving car = BAM!

*grinding sound*

*hits the brake really hard*

*loud screeching sound*

*car comes to a halt*

I got off the car and I saw a middle-age man with and umbrella by the side of the road. I'm not the kind of guy who runs off irresponsibly after I get involved in any kind of accident. Today is no different. I got down, still in shock and panic, ask the man who is the owner of the dog. The man said that it's his. I immediately apologised to him.

"Sorry, uncle... I'm very sorry about your dog."
"It's okay. It's not your fault. It's the dog's fault."
"I'm really sorry, uncle. Very very sorry."
"It's okay. It's the dog's fault. The dog turned back and ran into your way. It's okay."

I shook his hands and got on my way. I went home and found out that both my front tires are smoking from the inside. I probably toasted my brakepads after attempting to stop in time.

This really sucks.

On a brighter note, we finally got the permit for caroling from the chief clerk. Hooray.

premise of growth

I talked a little about this in the car just now while sending Ryan, Chris, T.Li and T.Hui home just now from caroling practice.

Something that popped into my mind while I was driving was this: camps or workshops or whatever that a person may go to is only a premise of growth. It really doesn't matter which camp you go to or which speaker you go and listen or which bunch of people that you hang out with because these things(camps, workshops, etc..) are only a premise of growth. God will use whatever at His disposal, which I'm pretty sure a lot of things, so that we will go. It doesn't mean that when we go for Camp A we will grow more spiritually or vice versa with Camp B. Because God will use whatever to let you grow as much as He wants you to grow. Either way, even if you DON'T go for any camp, God is still going to cause you to grow as much or to the fullest that He intended you to grow.

So, for those out there who can't make it for any camps(me included), rest assured, you will grow/have grown as much as God has intended you to grow spiritually and that is all that matters.

Mmm... nah. No picture today. I'm going to tweak around with different templates and don't be surprise or call the BlogCops when you see any anomalies because I would ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THEM.

Cheers.

those days that I still remember

SPM felt like it's been over for a few century already. Oddly, I kind of missed those days. Days when I would worry to no end about my exam and do nothing about it. Serves me right and there's nothing I can do right now to change all that.

Anyway, ESP 4 is just around the corner. Mich and co. are out on dna camp while I'll be somewhere else in BP slogging around in ESP 4. Guess time to log off for a while for the camp.

9 down 1 more to go!

Those who know me, yes, plenty of things that I really don't like happening to me had already happened and there is nothing I can do about them. I should be more cheerful and it's not apocalypse. Well, yet. Thanks to Mich for helping too.

Umm... I guess that's it and well, 9 subjects are done with and I have 1 last one to go tomorrow! After my EST papers tomorrow, I have 2 parties to go to and another class party to go for the next day. That's a load of party-ing. Might even miss YF, which I haven't been going for like..... months. Well, that's so because I have class party at 2pm.

No, it's not because I get my priorities wrong. I think you are wrong if you think so. I don't have much brain juice left to debate to have a detailed write-up at the moment. Will do so after exam.

Anyway, here are 2 pics to make up for not posting any in my last post:
