I’m using Microsoft word to blog...

Ok this is quite cool. I figured i could use Microsoft word to publish directly to blogger.

For all who's still reading my blog, i know i haven't updated it in the longest time. Sorry for that. I can't really put images up but my photos are all on facebook. Add me if you want.

The last few weeks have been the craziest time in my life. I moved to Sydney, stayed in an apartment with 2 really really nice Malaysian dudes, started medical school, went for Mardi Gras (omg it was insane... there were these gay Taiwanese dudes who were really pissed at me because i stole all their hugs... all i had to do was yell HEYYY to any of the paraders, stick my hands out, and they'd come over to give me a hug... i wore a tight pink shirt, hair band... and will never do this again), holidayed in Melbourne during the easter break (the most amazing thing was that the friend who was hosting penny... is henry and will's housemate!!! Lunch at their place was like mini ECC gathering... uncle benny, aunty prue, nat, will, henry, aunty nat...; met loads of friends in melb. Got my new phone in melb[dad bought frm sgp and passed to aunty prue]. Got late for our bus to the airport... rahul rox.), ice cream cone at macers(over here pple call it macers and not macs. Ice cream cone is 50c. Having the resolution not to eat at macers anymore, breaking that the day after. We call the macs across shalom KAP cauz it had the play area that reminded us of KAP. Running back up baser steps to upper campus because penny had her curfew to meet.), Sunday mornings in the city for church (chris penny and i attend Wesley Mission at 220 pitt street, starbucks(hub) coffee every Sunday morning, awesome lunch after church at Ginger and Spice [http://www.smh.com.au/news/restaurant-reviews/ginger-amp-spice-singapore-restaurant/2007/10/01/1191090984613.html, http://sydney.citysearch.com.au/restaurants/viewContent/1119945819575/1137405250458, http://www.bestrestaurants.com.au/restaurants/NSW-Sydney-gingerspice.aspx,] timsum, jap food etc.), chionging late nights to complete work(individual assignments, draft portfolio, group projects, no-doz caffeine tabs the next day)...

I'd really love to upload pics, but everytime i want to do that i'm in my room. And internet in my room is billed per mb. Its 2c/mb. Free wifi in the library and most other parts of sch but whenever i'm in the library or in sch, i don't remember to upload pics...

It's a. Rina's birthday today so.... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I miss ECC... cant wait to go back in June. Pity i'll be missing out on church camp in june. I'm probably going to commit myself to the rest of the mission trips ECC organise. GTG back to work... )=

it came crashing down

didn't we kill it the last time? probably. but its surfacing again. gone were the days of peace and safety. never can we have an avro of fun and laughter without worrying about the beast.

it all began a long time ago. how naive we were, thinking that all was fine. even in our father's time, the monster was lurking. finding that opportunity to strike. waiting for the point when we were most complacent and at our weakest. it'll strike hard, again and again, until the village is no more. our home. our little sanctuary. the beast is sneaky. even thou most were ignorant about it, even in the early days, the village sent our warriors to battle. time after time, we overcome the beast. but just barely. we never got a chance to finish it off. it ran off, only to recover and strike again another day.

complacency has no place in this battle. the monster has its minions. hiding in every corner. whispering in our heads evil thoughts, gathering false information and spreading it around. that's how the monster works best. it gives us the confidence that we will not fail. overconfidence is the bane of our village.

this time, as the monster approaches our shore, we begin preparation for battle. this time, the whole village is involved. this time, we fought off the initial wave of minions. this time, we're wary of the monster's tricks. will we prevail?
