continuation.....
so I wanted to make it a full 12 weird things about me....
and came up with 4 more :D
4 more weird things about me:
9. I like the smell of freshly cut grass.
I remember I used to smell it a lot while I was in Canada. Well, the reason because they have front and backyards in their houses. And they have to mow the lawn frequently. In Malaysia, I don't smell the scent that often anymore. The front yards in Malaysia are mostly tiled. And people don't usually mow their own lawn on the weekends. Well.....except for my father la. Anyways, the scent reminds me of Canada. And the vague memories that I have.
10. I used to be scared of mannequins.
I had a nightmare when I was really young, I was under 6 I think. I dreamt that mannequins were in my house and they were chasing me around the living room. No one could stop them, not even the police. Until my dad came back from work and they stopped. My hero. But it had already scarred me for life. And sometimes I still imagine them looking at me in the corner of their eyes.
11. I talk in my sleep.
Actually, I think this is really common among people. I grumble, shout, scold, laugh....recently I made a joke in my sleep. Well, this was during the trip in Salzburg. We shared the same room. And my friend woke up because she heard me talking. Apparently, I was making a joke but she couldn't understand it because I was mumbling. The weird thing about it is that while I tend to talk in my sleep, my brother walks in his sleep. Hee....wierd heh??
12. I have deja-vu's once in while.
Do you ever have these moments where you've seen it happen before. Like a 6th sense. Sometimes, I have really weird dreams that aren't interesting at all and very random. Like once, I dreamt that I was washing vegetables with my mum in a place that I didn't recognise. And after a few years, it actually happened, in my new house. And another time, I dreamt that I was in a room with people that I didn't recognise. It was a classroom and we were waiting for the teacher. And it happened the other day. The people were the ang moh's in my class now.... But seriously, it all seems really familiar when it happens. I kinda remember distinctly who was talking and what they were wearing. spooky yea....
So there u go...all 12...

TAGGED TWICE!!!!
The title says it all.....i got tagged TWICE by 2 different people but with the SAME tag. I can't think of 12 weird things. This is all I've got....here goes...
8 weird things about me:
1. If there's a movie that I like, I can watch it over and over again.
I'm not joking here. I AM capable of watching it over and over and over again. My highest record would be 'A Walk to Remember'. Can't really tell you how many times I've watched it because when it reached the 17th, I gave up counting. I would say....23, give or take. Call me crazy....but I love the show. Oh and for 'The Mummy Returns', it's 13 times, I think.
2. I can hyperextend my thumb a LOT.
Pictures say thousands of words.
3. I realize I tend to cross my legs when I'm standing sometimes.
I just do it for no apparent reason. It's kind of a habit. But I don't really think it's good for my knees though. Wait, maybe that's why I have knee pains. I'm twisting it too much. Hmm....I'm thinking like a physio already. hahaha.....
4. I was long sighted (LOU FAH) when I was 9 years old.
Yea, I got tested at Uncle Yee Khiam's shop and they said I was long sighted. Apparently, my eyeballs didn't grow at the same rate as my body, so they were a tad bit small. But they said not to worry because they'll catchup. How weird...Anyways, it wasn't too serious, so it didn't really affect me even if I didn't wear my glasses which were granny specs I tell you.
5. I used to have a twin tooth.
A twin tooth is 2 teeth conjoined together, inseparable, stuck to each other, grow together. You get the point. Anyways, my teeth used to be so screwed up. One of my screwed up milk teeth refused to come out (there were a lot more of these) even though my adult tooth was growing behind it and guess what they were TWINS. So it's like, buy 1 get 2. This caused a lot of problems and eventually I got them extracted and had braces.
6. I have a deformed last toe.
Another picture to tell the thousand of words.
7. I can put my feet behind my head, btw I'm not a gymnast.
I tried it out when I was young. It manage to stay there. I don't think I can do both at the same time now. I've gotten stiff but I think I can manage one at a time.
8. I can rotated my head.
Okay, it doesn't sound as gross and horrifying as you think. I can't turn my head 360 degrees, that's different. I can rotated it while still looking in front. You know how you do the indian thing with your head from front to back and side to side. Well, one day I got bored and decided to put the 2 together. and wahla....:) but now more people can do it already.
That's all I've got 8 of 'em.
Try not to look at me weird the next time you see me k??....
Oh yea...I choose not to tag anyone because there's no point.
It's either they've done it or they don't read my blog so.....
Have a nice one ppl!

Rejoice!!!
Rejoice and be glad, people! because I am finally updating :)
I just got back from fellowship and today I took a very BIG step for me in my life.
I worship-lead for the FIRST time. yesh....first time!!! eventhough I've been worship singing for, I would say, ages.
It wasn't perfect so to say BUT that doesn't matter because worship doesn't have to be perfect.
It's suppose to be ALL about God. And it was.
After all, it's my first time, mistakes are allowed.
Overall, I'm pleased.
I'm learning about asthma now in this part of my course.
And it's very interesting for me.
I was an asthma sufferer myself.
There was this lecture where they showed us a clip of a man having COPD (really bad lung disease), and it was as if he was having an asthma attack. And suddenly, sitting in my seat, I started breathe like him. The memories of an asthma attack flooded back. It seemed like I was reliving the experience.
I knew it was PURELY psychological.
And it was a battle of the will of the mind.
It's amazing how the mind can play tricks with the body.
A few weeks back, during Sunday service, my pastor brought up about LOVE.
About pure love is love that doesn't expect love in return.
Meaning if someone loves another and doesn't expect the same feeling in return, that would be pure love.
But just think about it, to love someone in that way is harder than you think.
I mean, sure, it's easy to love someone who loves you back, but to love someone who doesn't reciprocate?? not as easy i think....
I guess pure love = unconditional love then right?
To love someone with no strings attached.
I desperately need a haircut la...
My hair is so out of shape.
Everytime I get out of the shower and dry my hair....it goes POOF!!!
Poofy hair....
When I get back, the firt thing I wanna do is cut it....and then colour it!!!
hee......
Okay now....Imma go to sleep now....toodles~

the more insightful post
I've been hooked on youtube for a while now and I just realized there are videos of Hillsongs and Planet Shakers as well. I've always wondered how it's like and imagined it in my head.
It's more amazing than I imagined it to be. Just to see thousands upon thousands worshipping God is mind-blowing. And how everything sounds perfect, looks perfect. And it's not really about how good the music is or how 'chun-ted' the musicians are or how catchy the tune is. Even if it's just voices or just the piano playing, it can still be amazing worship. Everyone lifting up their hands and voices towards God, just to get a touch from Him. It would be enough. It would be enough for them to go back to the world and face whatever comes. The moment when everyone is unified in one voice, one mind worshipping the Only One. It seems so natural, so pure, so beautiful. What we were created to do. And I got all this from a youtube clip. I can't imagine the real thing. I managed to worship God sitting in front my laptop. With tears blurring my vision. Just taking it all in. It got me wondering how worshipping in heaven would be like. It's all we're gonna do, day and night, worshipping God. A never ending high praise session. Everything will be perfect. The greatest music you can imagine. The vast multitudes singing and praising Him. No one complaining about the worship, whether it's too loud, or too fast, or too slow, or too many new songs, or too many hymns because everything will be perfect. Everyone worshipping, not caring about what others think because the only audience is God. But the best thing about it is that He will be with us. We will not just have a touch. We'll be with Him for eternity. I can't wait. I'm so excited. Don't take it the wrong way, I'm not suicidal. I'm just looking forward to meet God face to face. To worship Him day and night. It's gonna be so coool.....=D

NOTHING, NADA, KOSONG
My exams are finally over. Handed the assignment in yesterday.
So my coursemates and I decided that we should go have some fun.
LASER QUEST.......
So we hopped in one of their cars and drove all the way to Didsbury.
It was freezing outside. My ears almost dropped off.
We didn't really know where it was so we asked around and guess what?!?!
IT SHUT DOWN sometime ago.....SHUCKS!!!!
Anyways, we went into the arcade area with the bowling alley and they wanted to bowl instead. I hate bowling. because I suck at it. Somehow, my ball is always attracted to the 'longkang'. And I always come out of the game with a sour face. So, to spare everyone from having to stand my sourface I have decided NOT to play. I mean, I don't mind watching others. I'm cool with that.
But just to our luck, there wasn't another alley open until 10 pm. So in the end we played pool, all 8 of us. yeap.....
And I sooooooo SUCK at pool. I totally missed the white ball (mind you the one that's closest) TWICE!!! Gosh.....I made a fool out of myself. So, now I have decided NOT to play pool either :) to spare me the humiliation.
Ooh...but I like air hockey!!! yea...so fun. But then everytime after a few rounds my arm gets really sore. But what the heck, although I don't win most of the time, I get to score a few points...right dear?! hahaha....
ok...I had nothing to write for this post. NOTHING, NADA, KOSONG....but i promise the next post will be more insightful (at least more than this one) i think.....so until my more-insightful-post.....take care ppl!!!
