Lock my Blog or stays as public?
[info]royinmoonride

Sometimes you see LJers locked their entries for friends viewing only. I don't lock mine, and I'm wondering should I do it as....

Last Sunday I received a SMS from this old friend, rather secondary school classmate. I came from a boy school and  thinking back, I doubt there's any Xmen in my school. No, I really don't think there was any. All right, perhaps there were, but definitely not someone I know, and for sure not from my class.

I chanced upon your blog
It was happy to read all your entries
entertaining and interesting
I tot i was the only Xmen in school
You are not alone...


And just last night, I received a SMS thread from another old friend, my poly classmates. Of course, when I recalled earlier, I couldn't figure any Xmen ever exist in my engineering department. Nothing...ZERO...



Poly Classmate : I love to read what you wrote, so nice...
Monster's reply: (Act blur) huh?

Poly Classmate: Your blog I mean, funny. I happened to discover it when I was googling
Monster's reply: Oh ok...

Poly Classmate: I know you would think that I used to behave very tough, but actually I'm a Xmen
Monster's reply: (Jaws drop!) Oh...that is err....nice...



Practically I ran out of words to say or rather I didn't know what to say when I didn't ever ever expect my poly mate, nor my secondary school classmate to suddenly transformed into Xmen, like as if all this while they have been buried deep in some shit hole, undiscovered or something. Was it because of my blog that leads to one another to confess their true identity, or was it because Christmas is approaching where one will automatically tell something that they have hide deep inside for ages?

So should I really lock my entries, before I get more heart attack for the coming new brand year? I wonder...

year after year - the years we have been friends - thank you.

you have been there for me in everything. It has been 15 years ? thank you [info]totoro2006 my dearest fellow enrobed friend!


(every year - ever since he bought his own place - totoro would bring over tang yuen for me - the nativity scene was bot by totoro & co 2 years ago)


Heard this lovely song ...
[info]seaweeds
Heard this lovely song whilst running my errands today ...





It’s not the glow you feel
When snow flakes first appear
Yeah, it’s not the Christmas card
You’ve sent for years
And it is not the joyful sound
When sleigh bells ring
Or the merry sounds
when children sing

The little gift you send
Each year, on Christmas day
Will not bring back the friend
You’ve turned away
So may I suggest
The secret of Christmas
Is not the things you do at Christmas time
But the Christmas things you do
All year through




Lovely horr ... and a good reminder of how Christmas is really every day of our lives if we but open our eyes to the blessings we get every day.

So let us continue to be a blessing to everyone we meet - It is never totally random - there is a reason why God put the people we know into our lives.

But the difficult thing is trying to find out what on earth those reasons are ! HAHAHAHA

and so we plod on and plod on; placing one foot in front of the other - always moving forward and we learn and we grow.

一份诚意
[info]royinmoonride
Mum always told me have no fear to do good deeds, yes i agreed with what she said. However, at times when I tried to do something good, and wanted to pass this joy to others, the response were cold even if I tried to initiate a few times...

Perhaps Ah Ma was right, as she said that she would only pass her joy to the one who appreciate it, not the one who ignore it...

Sad? Yes...
Disappointed? Yes...

But it's ok, caused I have to always remember that it's about doing good things and sharing joy with the ones around me. At the end of the day, at least I can smile to myself and say...

至少我已经做了,而且是真心付出自己的一份诚意。。。

More importantly, results will be out in approximately 8 hours and I'm majorly freaking out. Probably won't be able to sleep anymore since I'm the kind of person who needs to get shit out of the system asap, although I am surprisingly capable at holding my pee when I'm too lazy to wake up in the morning. Can never understand those friends who have the willpower to put off looking at results till after Christmas or something; it is a very noble but self-imposed delusional prolonging of suffering.

http://www.nadinejarvis.com/projects/carbon_copies

Carbon Copies
Pencils made from the carbon of human cremains. 240 pencils can be made from an average body of ash - a lifetime supply of pencils for those left behind.



Each pencil is foil stamped with the name of the person. Only one pencil can be removed at a time, it is then sharpened back into the box causing the sharpenings to occupy the space of the used pencils. Over time the pencil box fills with sharpenings - a new ash, transforming it into an urn. The window acts as a timeline, showing you the amount of pencils left as time goes by

Thérèse de Lisieux (2 January 1873 – 30 September 1897)
[info]seaweeds

Thérèse's Little Way

Thérèse is known for her "way of confidence and love", commonly known as "The Little Way". In her quest for sanctity, she believed that it was not necessary to accomplish heroic acts, or "great deeds", in order to attain holiness and to express her love of God. She wrote,

"Love proves itself by deeds, so how am I to show my love? Great deeds are forbidden me. The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers and these flowers are every little sacrifice, every glance and word, and the doing of the least actions for love."



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se_of_Lisieux

This is a very lovely teaching: That we really do not need to do big extraordinary things to prove our love - be it for God or for others - it is the small mundane things in life; done with simplicity, honesty, consistency and humility - these little scatterings of flower petals which prove one's love and devotion.


Today's reading at vespers is particularly instructive (Corinthians 4:5)

There must be no passing of premature judgement. Leave that until the Lord comes; he will light up all that is hidden in the dark and reveal the secret intentions of men’s hearts. Then will be the time for each one to have whatever praise he deserves, from God.

and we plod on and on and on and we learn and we grow.

'Cardio Workout'
[info]royinmoonride
I only do 'cardio-workout' once a year, and that's during chinese new year. That night I had my 'cardio workout' till 5 plus am. It was no fun and sway for continuously 2 rounds sitting below an expertise where I have to solely depend on my super rusty Kungfu.

In between, still have to encounter player "鬼上身", chanting and making prayers, really pattern more than badmitton. The rule of the 'cardio workout' was totally new to me, and to prevent myself from dying, I came out with a set of techniques in hope that I would at least survive in the end of the workout. So after giving a few tokens away and divided by two, I still managed to get 30 from a generous player.

Hana Fusen Note Tags: Each petal of the flower peels off to make a note tag just like the rhyme “he loves me, he loves me not.” Place a “bouquet” in your pen stand or a glass and use the petals for bookmarks and labels.

Utmost in your mind is success. You are constantly seeking stimulation and a life full of experience. You are trying to 'grow' and above all you need to develop freely and to shake off the shackles of self-doubt. You are an enthusiastic individual, full of life with the desire to live intensely. You like contact with others and are enthusiastic by nature. You are receptive to anything new, modern or intriguing. Your interests are many and you are likely to expand your fields of activities. You are optimistic about the future and you deserve every success because deep down you are a 'winner'.

You are very self-sufficient and methodical. You presume to know where you are going but need to find a person who will recognise the way you are, not be too demanding and who is, as they say in Italy, 'Simpatico'.

Being a very proud individual, you tend to hold yourself aloof pretending that you are stoical - indifferent to pain and pleasure. This is not so, for in truth you are an extremely emotional individual, one that may make a hasty decision and perhaps regret it at leisure. It is time now to break the bond of detachment and be the 'you' that you would like to be - give vent to your emotions and enjoy yourself.

You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you. You do not like the feeling of loneliness and whatever it is that seems to separate you from others. You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone.

You don't like authority and you rebel against all forms of limitation. You are your own person and you intend to stay that way and to get on in the world simply by your hard work and determination.


Presents !
[info]seaweeds
My visitor-tuition student-first passenger bought me a lovely present ...

but sadly ...
Photobucket- many did not survive the 300km journey ...


Photobucket

but ONE did !!! and now that sole survivor takes pride of place right at the center -

I always believed: there can be many - but that one shining special one right in the center - that is the one which [who] matters the most;
and one has to look after that precious one and care care care and protect protect protect and yes, love love love.

This is what happens when ppl have those digital remixers and have a lot of time .. LOLLLLLLLLLL

(do watch it until George Micheal comes in .. it is hilariousss .. loll)


But something happened
For the very first time with you
My heart melts into the ground
Found something true
And everyone's looking round
Thinking I'm going crazy

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
Keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open


thanks to [info]limster for the funny vid ! LOLLL
