As usual, the net has a copy of harry potter out there in the following form:

Harry Potter died in the end.

Just kidding. I haven’t read it at all. No spoilers too either.

I ran 2 x 3km today. Just felt like running more because I feel like I’m going to die of heart attack before 30. Also, I think it makes me eat less because I don’t want to undo my running by eating.

Before I go on, I think my aunty is going to be down with cancer. Its not set in stone yet, but its a good chance she will. I sent her to doctor today, going to do so again on friday. Hopefully results are not there and then. I’ll be like so helpless as to what to do. I hope that out of all of this she will feel the need for God as her mortality shows itself to her in more realistic ways. I don’t want her to die, but worse than that, I don’t want her to die a spiritual death. So if it costs her her life and us a loss of a great aunty who’s been taking care of us from small to big, its all worth it. I feel so detached and heartless. I wonder how I’d feel if I or someone in my direct family had cancer.

Moving on, my room is a little more packed up. I’m going to be done soon! Then I’ll take some photos. I want to change my curtain to blinds for practical reasons.. My room faces the neighbours and I have to draw the curtains which cuts off wind and the air outside.. so hot la! somemore now I’m running a desktop thats making my room slightly hotter than outside.. no choice.

I’ve also acquired a cool LBV (load bearing vest) from my cousin which was the prototype for the current LBV issued in the army for certain units. It was scrapped because it was more expensive. It looks like this without any pouches attached on the loops:

When pouches are attached and stuffed, it looks something like this:

I don’t know what I got it for. hahaha.. but the pouches he gave me are going to be useful. I shall be super extra and use it for reservist one time and see how.

Anyway, this blog needs a little more pictures. I’m so sorry I bombed you with so many words in the past 10-15 posts. Here’s a picture of the recording last week.. 2 down with about 3 to go!

Anyway, I haven’t processed quite a few of the songs yet.. After thursday I’ll start to do it! Just SO many takes and tracks. Nowonder you pay good money for sound engineer to do it. Its not a simple matter! Thankfully, the piano is not the main star and is just a background accompaniment cos its really not good enough (for me at least).

OUR CHURCH NEEDS A SOUND-PROOF-ULTRA-QUIET-SUPER-SILENT ROOM.

Was i thinking out loud? Also, I have always wanted to do a children’s CD to evangelise to visitor’s parents during june camp or any other thing. I don’t want to do it on my own, I want it to be sanctioned and supported by God and wait for his timing. I hope I don’t miss his signs.

My room has so many little things with little memories. Even reciepts and magazines hold bits and pieces of them. Just hate to throw away stuff but some things are meant to be left behind. Not just bad stuff, but sometimes the good stuff too because they prevent you from moving forward when you keep holding on to them. One thing’s for sure: I won’t regret throwing away all my notes.

I have heard of this piece before, just foudn that someone actually made a televised recording of it! Come see come see how awesome it is.

Just to get my mind off stuff, I think I have a few new goals to add for this year.

1. Get down to 85kg by the end of the year (7 more kg..)
2. Wear a size 34 pants by the end of the year
3. Go for either AHM / Sheares Bridge Run / Standard Chartered Marathon this year

I shall achieve that by

1. Starting to eat oats and other assorted light foods in the day. No supper. Occasional bak chor mee is fine. No double meals! Less food dates and meetups.
2. Same as above.. I’d have like.. another 6 pairs of pants to wear if I achieve this
3. Go running a combined total of 20km a week for now. 10×2k, 5×4k or any other combination

12 Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.

Colossians 3:12-17

What did I do wrong? Where is my peace? Just very sad la. Total sian-ness

I think I need some peace and quiet from everyone, even if it means isolation for now. Thank you very much. I’m so tired of thinking and thinking of what to say so as not to sound wrong or get anyone upset. My blog doesn’t match up with my real life? Then maybe you shouldn’t read it or maybe you shouldn’t talk to me and think you know me like you used to. Choose one, don’t come disturb can already. I hate this kinda cryptic message to a certain so and so kinda thing crap but I mean, what does anyone expect me to do? What? Like what man? Tell me and I’ll do it..

Anyway now I’m kena-ing from everyone. Sigh. Sucks to be me.

Going to send my aunty for checkup for a lump on her chest. Probably going to take a whole morning. Maybe lunch with my sister and bro, maybe after that I can come back and continue packing my room up. This is making me pretty fed up already.

Praise God, Charissa’s got an interview for a teaching job! haha.. chinese teacher??? O_o

2 Peter 1:12-13 was refered to me today by a friend. What caught my eye however, was this highlighted verse from the last time I went through this book. God’s spoken to me tonight and I’ll share it with you if you permit. (What I mean is just click on the continue reading thing la)

I read a motivation tip and I think its useful when the going gets tough! It says to surround yourself with progress. Too bad, no wall to stick up done stuff. I’d like to keep it here so I can look at it when I’ve burnt out doing web design or anything I aim to do.
