Everything's settled for my double malaysia trip in May. Can't wait. Oishii definitely have some crazy ideas for the trip man, we bought identical tees for everyone to wear on the second day, I think people at genting might mistake us for campaigning sia haha.
I spent so much money just this month alone I dare not check my ibanking cause I'm afraid of seeing the financial damage I dealt to my poor bank account haha. Oh yah, singpost needs to start installing male toilets!!! I'm so irritated because there's only a female toilet on the ground floor, and an additional handicapped toilet next to it. Since when guys don't need to use the toilet on the ground floor one ah? Exam's really gonna come liao, I know I have been saying that many times before but this time I'm really feeling the FEAR. Can't blame me also, I have not been a student for 3 years so it's totally ok for me to feel this way haha. But I'm scared I did not study enough for the subjects, don't want to enter the hall forgetting everything I've learnt. ALLRIGHT. Manpaku tommorow. Can't wait to eat! |

It's easter once again this year. Time really flies, it was just not long ago that we celebrated easter in 2008, and here we're celebrating easter 2009. Well, this year's easter is definitely better because I managed to bring a friend to church, it's my long lost primary school friend who wants to be known by his new name lloyd, cause according to him he's a changed man, for the better haha.
The drama this year once again focuses on modern science, it's interesting to know that the scriptwriters try to make the drama as revelant to society, rather than sticking to traditional storylines, I guess it really piques people's interest and gives a whole new look on the story of Jesus. However, I feel that this year's drama is somewhat lacklustre, there's no dance section or the usual funny song segment, which definitely draw smiles from the audience. Nevertheless, I did enjoy myself through the service and when it came to the point where the pharisees wanted to crucify Jesus, an interesting point came to my mind. We all know that God knew us before he created us and allowed us to be born to the earth and that he loves every single person that he created. Inferring from that statement, it's natural to assume that he also loves the souls of the pharisees and scribes just like you and me. However, the Bible says that God have to sent his only Son to earth to die for our sins, and the death means shall be by crucifixion. So naturally, Jesus can't just be cutting wood one day and mysteriously end up on the cross the next, a course of event must happen for Jesus to wind up on the cross, and that event would be the pharisees's plotting to crucify Jesus. That led me to think, no matter what, there must be a bunch of people that will somehow be 'sacrificed' so that Jesus can die on the cross. People may argue that the pharisees wanted to crucify Jesus out of their own will, but what if they are destined to be the 'scapegoats' to bring about Jesus's death? But doesn't God love everyone? and gives everyone a chance to choose to believe in him or not? So why must there be a group of people that doesn't have to chance to choose to believe in Jesus and end up having to play the bad guys, and therefore go to hell. It's like a play, whereby in a cast, there must be someone who have to take on the role of the villian, but that doesn't mean that person is naturally bad, or have an evil heart. So likewise, what if God already planned that in order for Jesus to be sacrificed, a bunch of people have to be made the villians. But doesn't God love everyone? doesn't God also loves those pharisees? Why does it seems like they have no choice to believe in God and end up playing the villians? Same thing with Judas, out of all the 12 disciples, there must be someone who have to take the role of the betrayer, and unfortunately it's Judas. Imagine you are Judas, can you imagine how cruel it is to know that no matter what, your purpose of being born on this earth is to betray the son of man and to end up in hell no matter what you do because God already predestined that you play the role of the betrayer? Does it makes sense? Maybe you might think that people do things out of their own will, but have you thought that it might be predetermined that you will do what you did? It's like maybe tommorow you will commit a lustful sin, to you it might be that it's ur nature to commit it, but what if God purposely arrange that you will commit that sin tommorow? God knows what will happen in the future, so he would definitely know that Judas would betray Jesus, or the pharisees would crucify him, so why didn't he do something about it? Why would he allow these people, whom he is suppose to love just like everyone else, to be the scapegoats of our salvation? Isn't it abit unfair for them not being able to choose to follow Jesus? Like it's their predetermined destiny? All these thoughts just kept flooding my mind while watching the drama and it really made me think. And I would like to have answers, I do not know how or when, but it's definitely interesting to see someone rebutt my theories haha. |

I'm back to update once more. It's been a long time since I experienced exam fever considering the last time I sat for an exam was 3 years ago when I was taking my last paper for my TP final semester. But it's the same feeling right now, and I have been mugging for the past few days or weeks.
Recently, I have been reading David's gan blog and he's really living the high life right now. Seeing him buy hermes birkins like collecting plastic bags from pasar malam kind of makes me aspire to achieve that status one day. I used to think that spending 20k on a bag or a bracelet is dumb and wasteful. But thinking about it, I realised that if I'm earning the same amount as David Gan, or even more, why would I want to spend 20 bucks on a bag from bugis street instead of a 20k bag? If I'm earning 100,000 a week, 20k to me is probably not a big deal, but that's if you're earning that amount. If let's say I have the financial capability to go for the best things in life? Why would you want to settle for 2nd best? If I'm rich, I would have no hesitation paying 100 bucks for a trim at Passion salon instead of settling for a 3 bucks haircut along the streets of Tampines or Bedok. Thus saying that, I realised that alot of our thinking and beliefs stem from the circumstances that we are in and also from the things that are in constant interaction with our senses. I'm also recently irritated by some people who like to tell me how good or happening their life is. I'm fine if you want to share with me good news and stuff, but the tone that you use in your voice or the way you say it makes me feel like you are showing off otherwise, especially when we are in the middle of a good conversation, and I believe it only shows that you're insecure. Insecure people have this nudging need to visually or verbally show other people the things that they are most insecure about. Something like if I feel very insecure about my looks, I will find the need to constantly tell people that I'm goodlooking or show that I am goodlooking through actions. Likewise, I think people who feels that other people thinks lowly of the area that they are insecure in also tends to want to prove to the others otherwise. If I feel that people think I'm poor and have no money, I will want to purposely buy branded goods and flaunt in front of other people just to boost my security regarding that area. Back to the topic, I feel that these people are insecure because I used to do the same thing. One of the first few reasons of setting up a blog is because I feel that other people think lowly of me or that I'm someone who's inferior to them, and thus I want to show it to those people that I'm not what I think they think of me. Of course, that's no longer the reason why I'm bloggin right now because that was the old me, and the old me is gone for good. If I feel secure about the things that I have in life right now, I don't see the need to tell other people abt it, or show it to them. It's something like a quiet confidence, rather than a confidence that feeds on the seeing the jealous or envious looks of other people's faces. I'm sorry if this blog has kinda become like a rant blog, haha, but I kind help it but to express how I feel, like they say, it's not good to keep all your feelings inside, lest u explode haha. Allright, I'll be back to blog soon. |
