people always say that they regret not cherishing.
i’ve a friend who’s super duper close to her dad.
her dad passed away couple of years back.
now, i know she still laments and regrets not cherishing.
berating herself and bearing this responsibility onto herself.
i say, u lucky bitches :)
at least u guys can regret
me?
i didnt even have a chance to.
not that its good or anything… just, at least there’s memories and the past.
where’s mine?
shopping spree!!!
weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
i think i’ve changed, more calculative and erm feminine haha
disel to billabong, to ripcurl to roxy to topshop etc.
(no link to calculative haha)
anyway, went shopping today!
haha
i should really be thankful and satisfied. (:
400 bucks worth of stuff, incuding my sis’.
my aunt says it under her budget.
ha
(erm i spent 600 alone the prev time.)
oh i feel random today haha
so yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeea.
im easily satisfied haha
right hern, right.
the atrocities of this world
and yet i can do nothing,
but stand on one side and watch helplessly.
sometimes i wanna bear it all myself.
but i dont know how, i know i cant
its impossible.
but why?
not why i cant, but why does all these have to happen?
its not fair.
i know its silly,but i feel like its my fault.
will my past actions cause someone to lose his job etc?
i should be thankful.
satisfied.
its silly to think of all these, i know.
but i dunno why, i keep thinking.
the world has so much (much:uncountable) injustice, so many people suffering.
people without parents, love or money.
some without basic necessities or a roof.
i have all limbs, a family that sacrifics and loves me, friends that care for me, enough $
i feel like i’ve aged.
i dunno.
like maturity suddenly comes after 18.
weird, i know.
ahh!
man. i called my gran to ask her to eat less fatty stuff.
i’ve becomed more naggy.
gosh.
i think its cos of heart of greed.
the money, family ties etc.
makes me think of how fortunate i am, and how unfortunate some are.
i just feel, if only, i can bear it all.
the world aint fair man.
the world aint fair.
thanks alicia.
i thought i was strong and often wondered why people would cry.
once i remembered shaun telling me i was one of the strongest woman he had ever known.
and once i remembered when i was still in w84, the cg played the xi nu ai le game.
they gave me and shona one min to cry, to see who could first.
i remembered that she did cry, and no matter how hard i forced, i couldnt.
i used to think that crying was a sign of weakness, and no matter what, i wouldnt cry.
and even if i did, i wouldnt let anyone see.
now i’ve learnt, that as time goes by, as one grows older, the tears become more.
its like a faucet, never ending once opened until someone closes it.
few days ago, i had a nightmare.
i jerked awake and cried.
just because of a dream.
which would never happen in the past.
i would normally laugh it off.
what happened to me?
a few minutes ago i cried because of a show-heart of greed.
i pratically sobbed.
thinking of the past, of family ties and stuff, tears would well up uncontrollably.
i think now, if u gave me a minute, no doubts there, i can.
i realise im not that strong.
i realise tears arent a sign of weakness.
i learnt that its okay to cry.
i am not ashamed.
my love language is touch.
if you dont know what that means, it means that how i express love and view love from other is by touch.
in other words, hugs.
the brief yet close moments that two share is enough to relate, i think.
for me, a hug works wonders.
its lifts (literally) me up when im down and well lifts me even higher when im high.(which is erm not that good haha)
so whenever i see someone down, i’ll hug.
i dont mind hugging strangers haha.
hugs: To clasp or hold closely, especially in the arms, as in affection; embrace.
so gimme a hug!!
marketing vs Christianity
from a friend’s blog:
Customer value-the profit a customer obtains; the ratio of sacrifice needed to the benefits obtained.
Matt 16:26-For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul?
Customer Satisfaction-the meeting of a customer’s expectations. Businesses should strive for customer delight, exceeding the expectations of the consumers.
Matt 5:39-…..But whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40 If anyone wants to sue you and take away your tunic, let him have your cloak also. 41 And whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. 42 Give to him who asks you, and from him who wants to borrow from you do not turn away.
Relationship Marketing-the concept that businesses should place first above all long-lasting relationships of mutual interest and benefit.
Matt 22:37 Jesus said to him, “ ‘You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and great commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’] 40 On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
One-to-One Marketing-the theory that businesses should seek to create personalised and unique relationships with consumers to satisfy their unique needs and wants.
1 Cor 9:20 and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the law, that I might win those who are under the law; 21 to those who are without law, as without law (not being without law toward God, but under law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law; 22 to the weak I became as weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.
ROI(Return On Investment)-the ratio of money gained or lost in relation to an asset.
Matt 25:16 Then he who had received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents. 17 And likewise he who had received two gained two more also. 18 But he who had received one went and dug in the ground, and hid his lord’s money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants came and settled accounts with them.

Sacrific should be her name.
Because she has given up so much for us.
Humble should be her name.
Because she will never admit the great things she has done.
Faith should be her name.
Because she has enough to carry us, as well as herself, through this crazy world.
Strength should be her name.
Because she has enough to care and bear for so many.
Wisdom should be her name.
Because her knowledge is worth more than gold.
Beautiful should be her name.
Because it is not only evident in her face, but in her heart and soul as well.
Loving should be her name.
Because of the deepness of each hug and kiss she gives.
Jessica is her name.
But i call her giving, humble, faithful, strong, wise, beautiful and loving mom.

Rules of the game: Each player of this game starts off with ten weird things or habits or little known facts about yourself. People who get tagged must write in a blog of their own ten weird things or habits or little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you must choose six people to be tagged and list their names. No tag backs

pass it on pass it on
his legs splayed wide and obscenely, with his arms folded across his chest on the train.
he was asleep, or rather, pretended.
he was nonchalant to the frail old woman holding on to the pole who was swaying precariously.
his gf (i think) next to him nudged him and told him to give up his seat.
he stirred, mumbled okay but went back to sleep again.
will he be this nonchalant if it concerned his marriage vows?
maybe.
guys often complain that their girls dont speak their mind.
Like if a guy asks his girl if she wants to go home, she’ll most probably say yes, but deep down, she would be shaking her head most vigorously.
and if the guy brings her home, she’ll get pissed.
in the end, the guy has to ponder what he did wrongly and ends up confused.
poor guy u say.
i say, the day girls speak their minds-mean what they say, is the day guys mean theirs.
