Ok leng you ARE right its the blog settings heh.

Yesterday was supposed to celebrate GL and Brandon's birthday. Basically, GL injured himself so one nan zhu jue gone lol. The nv zhu jue....errr i mean the other nan zhu jue as well as Bynes Charles Chun Wee came to my house at 12+ or so. Slacked around awhile, then later went down to swim at the sports complex. Had fun, then came up, bathed, and heres the part that it gets retarded.
I mean its really bad when things like this happens. When we can pretty much declare 'we dont have to be there by 4, because the others will 100%' not be.
Fact is this. I think that if we set a time, we should be punctual. Whether rain of shine, school or none, got battery no battery, whatever, we should make an effort to keep to what we said. If there is a strong reason on why we cannot make it on time, like unforseen circumstances and not forseen but ignored circumstances, we should at least inform someone asap.
I mean, really, its quite pissing la. Not that im like angry with anyone or something but i just really feel that sometimes we need to be considerate to others. Not everyone can fit into your timetable. Not everyone wants to do what you want to do, not everyone agrees with you. If you have your opinion, state it early. Not like if the meeting time is 4, then you wait until 430 before informing that you want a change of plans. And everyone else is there, waiting for you, you suddenly say 'can we not do this'. I believe that we all can voice our opinions and no one will like blast you or anything what. So why wait until last minute? Your opinions will be much more welcome if said earlier.
And please please please please please, do not, ever, without taking into consideration the opinions of others, make you own decision, then become uncontactable leaving others unable to respond to your decision. Honestly, i kinda feel bad for lock that he appeared over there at 545 and no one was there, i sure wouldnt want to be in that situation. But really, please understand that doesnt mean you say something everyone will automatically follow you. I do believe we ought to be more, say, democratic. If you have an issue, bring it up! If you insist on not doing something, go ahead, but dont be last minute. Do not make decisions by yourself but consult others. And never, assume, that people will follow you. I mean the worse part about that thing was that the other 2 ppl who were supposed to turn up at 545, siming and zc, didnt. Prolly coz they couldnt contact lock either to voice and say that they wont be able to. So essentially, 3 groups of people who did not agree with what one person said could not respond to what that one person wanted and in the end, very sad indeed.
Oh and on that same issue, do not make decisions for others thanks.
Haizz. I just feel that it was such a pity. It could have been great, it could have been wonderful, fun and enjoyable. Yet, we had surprises planned that never happened. Due to our own personal wants, to put it crudely, selfishness, everything screwed up. Because we were not willing to make sacrifices, we may end up spoiling everything.
We didnt even have a birthday song.
It was like. Just another day going to someone's house to play games.
I know our friendship is more than that. So why cant we put in the effort, to give our best in it? Why do we give more attention to the other small neligable things?
Perhaps some of us are unhappy, but maybe we can bring up the issues in a nice manner instead of like not saying anything and then everything snowballs and oh well.
Haizz. Im not pinpointing anyone or blaming anyone for this. We all have flaws, we all make mistakes. Im sorry if i offended anyone in this post. And trust me. I know damn well what happens. The last time a blog post offended people, I flew to Timbatku. Not nice.
But perhaps it needs to be said. I ask that we may really think about whats important to us, and actually give our best to make it work. Sometimes people say 'its going to be boring', well then we can MAKE it interesting. Or if not we can come up with something else! Simply throwing negative opinions on things without offering sometime else does not help at all. Neither does it help to remain unwilling but silent, dragging your feet when people move out.
I just hope that we can really come together and make things work out. And i care to say so much because this is really important to me. I dont want to see it happening over and over again.
I just thought that you know, its the thought that counts, and that if there isnt much thought going into celebrating a special day for me, then perhaps i rather not celebrate anything at all than end up feeling more hurt. It just feels like your special day seems unimportant to others. Neligable.
Maybe some people always have their way. Well its time to wake up. Welcome to Earth.

And that came on pretty strongly. Well, it isnt getting beautiful anytime soon.
Well 2 days in a row, i dont know if theres going to be anymore, whereby people debated about Christianity with me. Im sorry that i cant explain things perfectly, like i said, im not a bible scholar.
First one was yesterday. Where 3 people, 1 who has been to DI, received Christ and backslid, 1 who has been to DI twice, received Christ twice, and backslid twice (I know. Sounds really retarded but it happens.) 1 who has been rejecting DI. Well these people are ACSians. They know POD, they know chapel, so it was more of philosophical theological stuffs.
Second one was just this morning. Someone who from hearing that person speak knows absouletely nothing about Christianity, but rejects it anyway.
Well for me, I do feel the second case is a really really sad case. How do you know something isnt good for you unless you try it? Especially since there are so many people around who tell you its good.
Well I think when it comes down to religion, its all by faith. And faith, is not just any simple thing. Its a very strong and powerful thing. For faith is not just simple belief.
Faith, is the substance of things hoped for, the assurance of things not yet seen. Take a moment to absorb the meaning of that before proceeding.
I wish I could let all of you know how I feel. That by some magic, i could make you feel the same, power, the Holy Spirit, in your life. But its not something I can put into words, not something that anyone can put into words. You know the song? Indescribable? Yes. Its indescribable.
Maybe thats why I keep asking you guys to come for DI. Because during that short time period of 2 to 3 hours there, you get a feel of it. It wont be as strong and powerful, but its a tugging in your heart.
But sadly, after after DI, you guys just, forgot about it. Tried to come up with logic and reasoning to explain why you feel that way, and manage to convince yourselves. Maybe its the fear of the unknown, I dont know. But i just love to be there, basking in the presence of God.
You dont expect yourself to be lifted high and love and joy to pour into your life the second you surrender your life to God do you? Surrender is not a one time act. Its a gradual process.
A glimpse of hope and glory that is rejected, just because our human mind is unable to comprehend such...impossibilty.
How could such wonders exists? It must be a lie. It doesnt make sense, it wont make sense, it never will make sense.
I wont pretend to know exactly what is that wall that keeps you away but I know the walls in my life, and God smashed them into smithereens.
Maybe.

My heart is heavy as i touch upon these two topics. They both regard issues dear to me, and its just, difficult, to see such things happen.
But i will hold on to that hope. The beautiful wonderful hope in the future.
In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
