Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

It was tough but it was fun. Folding thousands and thousands of paper cranes; Nat and me threading those darn cranes at home; cutting away those threads because they were all too tangled to be used; decorating the stairs;  how we threw paper cranes like confetti when it all ended; our behind-the-scenes footages (srsly, where did that all go?) spending more time editing Owl City song than our video (can never listen to Vanilla Twilight the same way anymore); train rides home etc etc.


I still remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild

We were the kings and the queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same

You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

Long live the walls we crashed through
While the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, one day we will be remembered

I said, remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
Wishing for right now

We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town

And the cynics were outraged
Screaming, this is absurd
'Cause for a moment a band of thieves
In ripped-up jeans got to rule the world

Long live the walls we crashed through
While the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid

Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders, one day we will be remembered

Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break or fall

And you take a moment
Promise me this
That you'll stand by me forever
But if God forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children someday
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name

Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine

Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you

Long, long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
And I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not afraid


Singing, long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders, one day we will be remembered

close your eyes and open your hearts

The best decision i have ever made in life is to become a Christian. Like seriously.
There are so many things i want to tell people about God. About how great He is, about the miracles He's done. And i know people wont believe me easily but thats cool. I wish people would come up and challenge me to my beliefs. Because then, i can throw out evidence after evidence, miracles after miracles. And even after that, if they still dont believe, or perhaps they find a loophole in my argument, i will go back and study the Bible or ask others about the certain issue and learn how it really is. And i'd get back to the person and continue the debate. I believe that challenge is a great way to grow. Oh, you know what? I dont care. I dont care if the person is receptive or biased or what. I just want someone who would sit down and listen. Just listen. Because there are so many things that is threatening to burst out from my heart. I want to share and share and share. I could talk about God forever, i think. I cannot contain it inside me anymore. I want to tell people my story, i want to tell people other people's stories. All i want is to share this goodness i have discover. But religion is sensitive in Singapore and people always shun away when it comes to talking about God. I dont know why. I think many people have misconceptions about Christianity. So i'll just swallow down this recklessness i have and just hope somebody will ask me about why i am so convicted. If they think i am crazy, then let them be. But i hope they'll ask me. Ask me why i am crazy. Because then, i can show them evidence and videos and cool scientific stuff. YES, SCIENCE! Who said that God and Science cant be mix? I know i am going in circles and circles but i just cannot stop. Ok i shall end here.


 


Watched it yesterday. AND OMGWTFBBQ. Easily one of the best movies i have ever watched! Its really sad though. I cried until my chest felt tight. It reminded me of Confessions (Japanese movie). Both are twisted but Confessions is really extreme. Anywho.





Love the cinematography. And some of the scenes are really breathtaking. And of course, it doesnt hurt that the boy looks so adorable :D
*Pedophile moment.


BEFORE YOU GO, JUST WANNA SHARE SOMETHING:

For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.  He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

Colossians 1: 16-17

Have you heard of laminin? It is a protein and it is vital for the maintenance and survival of tissues. Why? Because it freaking holds all your cells together! Every one of them. No joke. Your skin? Yup, all glued by laminin. If laminin isn't produced correctly, your muscles may form improperly, giving you a form of muscular dystrophy.  Or you may just fall apart in a way similar to aging, a condition called "progeria". You can google to know more about it. But what is amazing about laminin is it looks like this:

How cool and amazing is that? There are so many interesting stuff i want to share and this is only the tip of it.

Ahh, le sigh.

"Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are bad, your body also is full of darkness. See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness"

oldies



I WILL SURVIVE!!!
Omg hahaha, i listened and danced like everyday to this when i was young!

Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 
James 4:8

Oh Lord, what did i do to deserve your unfailing love and grace? 
How can i ask for your forgiveness?
Ugly at its finest...
Yet, I will try again.
Though i may fail you once more
Please never give up on me.

The sinner and the sinless.

life.


 HAHAHA! Can only do this kind of stupid, crazy things with her.

I dont say i'll be there for you whenever
because i dont want to make promises i cant keep
I dont always say things that you want to hear
because i dont want to construct beautiful lies
I dont want to hear repeated problems of yours
because i am not as great as you think i am
I dont want to get too attached 
because i am not as strong as i appear to be

So dont depend on me, dont expect too much from me.
I'll give when i can, as much as i can.
But there are days where i need to be alone.
Just all by myself.

im not cool... im hot ;)

We were randomly talking on Whatsapp when I said "Ok" and then Shaf suddenly explained the origins of Ok. Apparently it means 0 killed because during WW1, the soldier would report the number of people killed to the public on a signboard. So ok means zero men killed and turns out to be the ok as we know of now.

So Xiuwen commented that Shaf is so cool because she always learn this kind of random things herself. And Shaf said oh no, Anginn is cooler because she knows a lot.

And then, i realised... EVERYONE IS COOL EXCEPT ME.

OMG. ITS TRUE!! Xiuwen knows a lot of people and a lot of stories so she is cool. Ask Anginn anything related to science (especially space) and she can tell you everything. And Shaf always know those random facts that you will never know. And Gaya is cool because she is an APNN. HAHAHA, no la. Because she is good at photoshop, after effects, final cut pro etc etc.

And im just like...



I bet all my classmates are on Google/ Wikipedia reading up interesting stuff right now and me? Blogging about how lame i am D:

I mean, i take delight in looking at pretty models, eating, watching shows and... pretty much nothing else. Which means that while everyone is getting more and more knowledgeable, i am just waddling around in my shallow life.

Well, how nice to know that.
