a new place, a new beginning

ok. i've moved. it's been some time already.

if you're still interested in keeping in touch, let me know =)

greetings from sg

oh my goodness!

beens eons since i've last blogged. guess i've got bored of it. or maybe the wordsmith in me has gone on a hiatus. i think it's more the latter.

anyhow...in the time frame since i was gone, i've:

1) finished school

2) gone home for a visit

3) graduated from uni

4) went on a holiday

5) came back home.

quite a big life change i would say. and so im now officially looking for a job.

i think there's more to write. but not now.

im thinking of shifting. and when i do...i will inform you.

been a long time coming

been awhile since i've last blogged. guess i don't have much to say anymore. or maybe i've decided to be more private.

and so i've moved out of sv. im staying for summer. won't be back till *fingers crossed* april.

i dunno if im having fun. i've been working my ass off. work is most times fun. but sometimes bad. i hate being bossed ard. is it that hard to ask someone to do something nicely? i can't stand tt bitch. everytime i work with her...my blood pressure rises and she never...and i mean...never fails to piss me off.

i like to think tt im a tolerant person. but she really crosses the line. i think i must have showed her my pissed off face and she actually apologized the other day. and u know i rarely show my anger. so u can just imagine.

i am having some fun. watched russell peters last night. it was damn funny la. but then didn't really appreciate the dirty jokes he told. to be honest...i laughed coz it was funny. but on hindsight...it was low brow humour. it got me thinking. i used to get really turned off when ppl start on dirty jokes but now..look at me. i laugh along with them. doesn't really show very well of me now...does it?

the past few weeks have been tough. most ppl have left. it sucks coz..it does feel lonely here. and im not very good with loneliness. makes me blue. and im such a wuss at times. i try to be strong but then...sometimes it's just not that easy.

but i've been spending fair bits of time with ppl who are gonna leave soon or have left by the time i blog this. thank you so much for you. all of you. sigh. what will i do without them? i miss the witty conversations and company...the comfort and support they give when i cant go on anymore. all so sorely missed/going to be missed. sometimes i wonder why did i sign myself up for this and i have to keep reminding myself of the reasons why.

have to try and stay focused and stay the course. and yes. i've rung the driving instructor.

and i think good listeners are an endangered species.

i'm against gay marriages

just watched oprah and she featured James McGreevey, the disgraced NJ governor who was accused of a gay sex scandal. he has just written an autobiography on his wretched life.

man. this episode of oprah really pissed me off. but first, let me give u some background into this guy. he was married with 2 children, opposed gay marriages in his time as governor before he was accused of some 'corruption'...with the bigger focus on his scandal. so, he was a closet gay.

and now, he has come into the open. he is in the process of divorcing his wife and has found himself a 'life partner' and is advocating gay marriages, saying that gay relationships need to be acknowledged by the society and is for the greater good of the public as it enriches the fabric of society. and has very supportive parents and was and still is attending church. he even went as far as to say in the show tt 'this is God's grace to me'.

and...what about the hurt he has caused his ex-wife? his children?

what on earth! God loves gays. He loves everyone. but He condones sin. homosexuality is a sin. no doubt about it. there's no grey area. sin is sin. i know some people are attracted to the same sex but if you are a christian, the only way to run away from this sin is abstinance and just a dying of your desires. tough call. but i have known of people who have triumphed over this. and they are living a very different lifestyle now.

the very fact that he is advocating what he did just made me so angry. how can someone be so blind to sin? how can they knowingly live in sin? how can they think that homosexuality is acceptable in God's sight?

has christianity been so whitewashed and so accepting that even sin is being embraced by the church right now? there was a bit of a hooha a couple of years ago when the anglican church in America and England wanted to allow gay marriages. the South East Asian anglican churches opposed the move. i can't remember if any other churches opposed the move. what do we make out of this? how do we let truth shine in such dark times?

to be honest, it scares me. the way the world has become around me. what kind of a difference will i make?

all over the place.

that's how i am right now.

struggling to keep it in when all i wanna do is get it out.

farther and further away i slip.

maybe this is it.
