I cannot recall the last time I have been disappointed in people, so this feeling is novel and very new. The emotions I experience the most at work are usually exasperation, frustration, anger, incredulity which are all fine and normal because after a short while my anger turns into humour because it is easier to laugh at the ridiculous behavior of ( Read more... )

I want to be like Lily Evans from Harry Potter. Hers is a beauty that inspires. A beauty that inspires bravery and love in the meanest of hearts. I want to have that kind of beauty, a quiet and unfading beauty that stands the test of time throughout eternity and a beauty that reflects my Creator.

It can be an exhibition piece featured in one corner of a contemporary art museum. The lighting is dim and besides the solitary lightbulb the only other source of light emanates from the tv. The old man seated on the rickety arm chair, the multi coloured flicker of the television reflected on his age lined face and the blank uncomprehending gaze. ( Read more... )

At the end of the day, all I want to do is just go home and sleep. I wonder how long it will take for me to get used to the working kind of lifestyle.

I have been looking back at the kind of guys I have ever liked in the past 2 years and although they are very different in terms of character, I realized that all three of them have these three things in common - 1) English oriented (well, one of them is English :/) 2) like to drink a lot 3) do some form of martial arts - jujitsu/muay thai ( Read more... )

Stop imposing on us your idea of beauty because God says that he CREATED ALL OF US BEAUTIFUL IN HIS EYES. And that should be the only thing that matters to us. Not self-validation from the people around you, not putting yourself through starvation and torture to conform to society's version of what is good looking, or putting yourself through so ( Read more... )

Why am I studying communication and new media? Alright the communication part I get, but the new media aspect might seem at first incongruous with someone who isn't as enthusiastic about the latest gadget as the rest of the Singaporean crowd, someone who just deactivated her Facebook account (and might leave it as it is permanently if I feel like ( Read more... )

I recently bitched on Twitter about someone, I normally don't spam Twitter in like more than 1 post at any time but I was so angry I could not help releasing 4 posts exclaiming my fury. After 2 hours passed, I regretted my action sorely because it is hurtful to the One I love and it is just not worthy of me as a Christian. I have since withdrawn ( Read more... )

I used to say, 'I am very happy single.' Usually in response to people who seemed to think that everyone should be with someone before they can be whole, complete, and happy.
