The Bachelor (12) Ep 5

Disgusting show. Absolute rubbish. Full of silly girls and a polygamy guy.

I feel so sad for those girls who think they are there to find their prince charming when actually each of them has one and he will find her; not the other way around. /sigh.

In the beginning, there was Ashley singing. Awful Awful AWFUL! But the bachelor, Matt, says that he is mesmerised by her singing. *rolls eyeball* Anyone could tell that he is lying. His face betrayed him. In Hollywood, the only reason she was allowed to sing probably because she's a songwriter and maybe had some agreementmade at night with the producer. She can't sing. Period.

Anyhow, by the end of the show it is too obvious that it is all a set up. Everything is probably scripted.
Honestly, what are the odds that a white guy would choose a black girl over a white girl? HELLOOOOO. Seriously. Go study psychology already. I don't deny that there is the possibility.
But the only reason she's still on the show at Ep 5 is to keep the black audience watching.

Then Kelly got desperate and flashed her boobs to Matt when she had alone time with him. (She was outted.) - Men like sluts but not as their wives.

Ashley (who sang and mesmerised Matt) was not given a rose at the end of the show too. Mesmerised?! More like terrorised!

p.s. getting a rose meant that the girl can stay on the show.

I couldn't finish watching the show. I don't understand how they sustained 12 seasons.
Perhaps the boob-flashing and pretty girlys attracted many male audiences as they dream to be Matt.
And the ladies watched to learn the bitching and schemes to get a man while daydreaming about their prince charming.

God's people.

How do you know if the person next to you is a christian?

What defines christians?

Christians are supposed to be loving, kind and righteous.
But how many have claimed to be and not lived up to it?

若你碰到他


爱 没有绝对 虽曾经以为 
我终於体会 爱不能倒退 
该让它颓废 收起心碎 

若你碰到了 替我问候他 
告诉他 我过得很美满 
已忘记他 已把泪水全部擦乾 
若你碰到了 替我问候他 
祝福他和他的另一半 
不在乎他 不再爱也不再等待 
就这样吧 若你碰到他 

蔡健雅这首歌的歌词描述了我以前的心情与感受。
在这里与你们分享⋯

Crossroads

HELLO THERE!! I AM BACK FROM MY GRAD TRIP.
Did you miss me?(:

I had a fulfilling and purposeful trip.
Being back in Singapore, I feel trapped.
Trapped in the lazy afternoons and uneventful days.

The kind of feeling I have now is definitely murky.
I know I have to move on (if I graduate) to the working world but I am not exactly thrilled.
I know how mundane work can get and how routine it'll be.
Then I will become like a robot.
I don't want to be ):
Can we go back to taiwan or somewhere faraway?

Taking in the whole future ahead of me is overwhelming,
so I've decided to take it moment by moment.
And whatever the future may be for me,
I am glad that the Lord is always with me.

Drama Queen and Princess

Yes that's right. Drama Princess, Char and Drama Queen, S.

I went out with S to celebrate his birthday yesterday~
He's not chinese. So its like a controversial thing to hangout, just the two of us.
Neither of us are bothered about the stares, finger-pointing and whispers because we LOVE the attention! :p  It is rather surprising to get such reactions from Singaporeans considering the fact that we are a multi-racial and multi-cultural society.

Anyways, I brought S to a chinese restaurant DIN TAI FUNG(I know! Of all the places I had to choose a chinese restaurant right. Like we can't get enough of the spotlight already). He really enjoyed their specialty 小龙包 (xiaolongbao-pork dumpling) and the steamed sesame bun. If you're chinese, you should bring your non-chinese friends to DIN TAI FUNG to eat. Its authentic chinese cuisine that only brilliant chefs can cook up. The making of this xiaolongbao is an art in itself. The skin cannot be too thick or too thin. Too thick and it'll be like eating flour. Too thin - the dumpling's skin may tear and the soup gone. (FYI: You are to savour the soup in the small (bite-size) dumpling.)

The aunties beside our table were like eavesdropping on our conversation and looking at us period. So we made up things to talk about. Haha. It was FUN. There are too many things we talked about. Can't fill you in in all the details. Too troublesome and I'm sleepy. Dinner ended with asking the waitress to help us take pictures in the restaurant and outside.

Those pictures need work. Bad framing.
S said we should write to mediacorp and do a reality show together.
Should we? Hmm...

Sex and the City 2

Dear friends,

How have you been? I'm good and have recovered from shingles and exams fever! :D
(Shingles is the resurface of chickenpox virus in people who have chickenpox before. Suggested reasons for this resurfacing: Stress, illness(weak immune system) and/or aging. I hope mine was due to (exam)stress and weak immune system! >.< )


I couldn't stay home upon my recovery. And I managed to catch Ironman2 and Sex and the City 2 this week! ^-^
Yeah, two very different genre of movies. I was actually quite reluctant about watching SC2. The reviews that I read from newspapers and 8days magazine made it sound like a bimbo movie about women, clothes, branded goods, shopping and sex. But it wasn't like that at all! Its about how women are like these days, as compared to the old times.(All in American context but I think some apply to Asian women too. At least in this modern city of ours.)

The movie showed how the role of being a woman has changed over the centuries. (Reminds me of the literature text I did in jc: Top Girls.) Women used to be homemakers, wives, mothers, sisters and the weaker gender (in terms of finance, we can't say about physical strength because it varies across countries). But now, women have to be a wife and mother (if she has kids), they need to work too. Women want to be independent financially. They are sick of just waiting for men to bring the bread home. They are no longer seeing themselves as just wives and/or mothers. They see themselves as individuals who are able to generate paychecks and buy what they want/need.

Wee~ I am glad that women are able to achieve so much now and stand up for themselves.
I am proud to be a woman. (:

P.S. Have you starting shopping? YOU SHOULD. GSS has begun! I bought a new dress today~ ^-^

On God's Terms

みなさんげんきですか?

I read in a book and it talks about Lewis Smedes' final book, My God and I: A spiritual Memoir, brings God's expectations of us to a startling clarity to me.

He said that he met God at a used book store when he picked up a then volume called The Rest of Faith and read it.

He says, " The author, whoever he was, told me that if I wanted to come to terms with God, it had to be on his terms, the chief one being that I would have to give up my ridiculous notion that I would be accepted by God only if I had what it took to be [a particular] type. What I needed to do was let him accept me with no consideration of whether I was acceptable or unacceptable. And then, when I had done that, to quit stewing about it and just rest in the fact that I was loved and accepted by God, no strings attached."

Because Christ died for us and redeemed us, as long as we believe and accepts Lord Jesus Christ as our saviour and Lord, God accepts us as who we are.

I don't know why it took me so long to be rooted and really accept this truth in my heart. But I am glad that I did and I hope you would too(:
