MEE.
just joined a foodie blog event, so from now on i have to blog more than 50 food items each month. so from now on, i'll have alot of mini posts with food pictures. maybe i'll do a little experimental cooking, or i'll just hunt places down. we'll see.
this week has been pretty decent, not huge on the disaster scale, but still eventful much.

TATTOOS.
i remember a guy who had them all over his body. he said that when he got them at age 18 it was cool, but when he hit age 40, it became his worst enemy. naturally, people avoided a middle-aged man in tattoos, and he got weird stares every where he went. what started out as his prize turned out to be his obstacle.
there are certain things in life we want to keep constant, like family harmony and best friends. we want them to be like tattoos on our body, permanent and unchanging.
but there are much more things in our lives we do at the whim of youth or in folly. we think nothing of them or even flaunt them like battle scars. but like tattoos, this society will never get used to them, and they will turn back against us in due time. they're like brand names: gang member, criminal, good-for-nothing loser. people pay attention to them instead of looking at the person you are underneath, and believe me it hurts when people stereotype.
something like a butterfly flapping it's in Africa can cause a hurricane in America. only you don't know when.

LOOK LIKE YOU FEEL.
baby blue nails now, and new hair on sunday.
Ubin is tomorrow, and with such awesome classmates, i cannot - repeat, cannot - wait. Biking, lunch, just having a great time is the best holiday ever.
Thanksgiving: TGIGF today was such a success beyond human proportions. thus, only God can receive such glory. Praise Him!
#nowplaying - talking to the moon by Bruno Mars. that guy is such an inspiration to my songs, stories, and pictures. i am constantly finding new things i like about his songs when i put them on repeat. like little nuances of the drum beats and the deliberate pause or two. his Lazy Song is a pioneer to itself, oe of the first songs advertising the slobs we all are, once in a while.
another talent is Travis McCoy, or Travie to his fans. i'm just a watcher, but he is impressive, most of the time. now cut some slack on that auto-tune.

SERIOUS.
you know you're getting old when you think about your life in the middle of the night.
School's over for today, and it was really different/interesting. it's also good to know i haven't forgotten everything yet.
going to open cell at six, can't wait to meet all the Christians on fire for God too.
oh, and i had one of the best talks with my grandfather ever. ever since i became fluent in hokkien, i've been able to talk at least for half an hour with my grandma. but never my grandfather. he's a man of few words, but today he talked to me for one hour on the importance of saving.
i know you're like, sheesh, of all things! but this is the longest time he has ever talked to me, and like a working adult, so i'm not complaining :)
getting pictures of the school around 5.30 (sunset) so i'll have awesome things to show you guys later :D

GRATEFULNESS.
some times we forget to be grateful for the things we have. it may be certain talents, the safety and security of our home, or simply our family. we have to remember whatever we have is a blessing from God and we shouldn't take things for granted.
one of the things i need to be grateful for is my fluency in Chinese. it doesn't come as easily to my friends. we went to a chinese prayer meet today, and i found it much easier than them to pray and worship in Chinese. although i might think this skill of mine is a white elephant, but i realize it has shown its usefulness through many different situations. or my fluency in the Hokkien dialect too. it has been useful in my ticketing job, i'm pretty sure it will gain me some "trust points" among Singaporeans.
the second thing i need to be grateful for is my family. it might not be as "wholesome" as i would have liked, but hey, family is family. i wouldn't be so independent and out-going is my family weren't this way. in a lot of ways, they have help shaped and mold me into the girl i am, and i need to be grateful.
