Are you forgetting something?

Are we forgetting something?

Are we too tucked in the comfort of our own lives to even care about the happenings in our nation?

Its time and it has always been time, to pray and to better equip ourselves with necessary knowledge of the things around us, of the corruption which is happening before our eyes and of the oppression right on our doorstep.

Blaming the governance whilst being ignorant of their "acts", aren't you the same? 

Future?

A conversation with a friend yesterday brought upon ideas for careers in which I have not imagined I would consider before. What career? Being an engineer in a ship that is. There's definitely pros and cons into going into that career path but is that what I really want to do? Of course the pay is super lucrative but you'd end up sailing a good 6 months without an option for a leave and that my friend is a very big sacrifice. Things you normally do like going to church on weekends, meeting up with ol' pals for a drink or a dinner or two, seeing my family and obviously missing out on how my nephews and nieces grow up, they'll all be gone.

I'll just have to see if there is a call for such a career.

Talking of careers, I wonder if I really want to go into the aeronautical field, opportunities for good future development and prospects are almost non-existent in Malaysia. What would you do in the pursuit of your dreams? Everything seems like a clutter at the moment and the last thing I would want to do is to get stuck in an office job.

I want an extraordinary life, no I'm not saying being rich in a monetary or property manner, rather I want to be rich in the experiences I have attained. I'd like to say that I've travelled the world and lived through many cultures. I'd like to be different.

But who doesn't want to be different?..

Sad isn't it? But I will not despair for I know that my God has plans to prosper not plans to harm and plans to give me a hope and future. I am confident that my God has even greater plans for me than I can even think of. I pray for continual strength and faith to believe! :)

Goodbye fyp

I'm finally done with mah FYP. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooOOooOOooOOoooo

Oh how folly the hearts of men

You speak but you think not, 

therefore you know naught 

and thus your actions are all for naught. 

It is, after all, only a fool's word, 

which enters another fool's mind 

which makes up all this foolish bigotry

What will it be boy?

A sea of opportunities is right before my eyes. 

What? Where? How?

I want to make this holiday a time to remember and obviously a fruitful one!

To conquer I shall, with Christ as my strength!

What do you do when you realize that 10am to 2pm is the most unproductive time slot in your daily study schedule? 

Answer: You sleep through it like a wombat.

I am in the process of training my body to sleep at will, so far it's not been pretty successful. gg mah life after this exam haha. Getting back to normal hours ain't gonna be easy.

One more

The feeling you get when after all the calculations, they turn out different and you have the exact same steps and values. not fun

A suprise

I remembered praying about today being a fruitful day for studies, I guess its gonna be fruitful after all since I injured my ankle area. Probably a bad sprain. I hope the ligaments and muscles are all fine.

As I was walking towards my condominium unit, the pain kinda increased in time, the numbness is setting off and the pain is setting in. I was thinking to myself, dude.. this is nothing compared to Jesus getting crucified yo, so i guess it was a grim comforting optimism boost there. I officially hate stairs now, I take forever to get down 5 flight of stairs.

Its gonna be a fun summer holiday.

The day will come when my parents ask me when I'm gonna get a girlfriend, and that'll be a pretty sad day. Pretty sad day indeed haha.

I've been writing and deleting the sentences I have been writing.
So lemme put it in point form to make things clearer:

• I want to know the person who will complete me! (besides Jesus lol)
• I want to make that woman the princess of my life cause the queen will always be my mum. (Problem? troll face)
• She'll be the target of my unique-seeking missile of love! With an aftershock of kisses and hugs.

I'm crazy. Its 5am. I'll probably regret writing about this soon. LOL.

Hi, is that stand taken?

Its a matter of fact that some people won't like the things that you like, I can accept the fact. 

Really I do.

For this matter, its about the thing I love, and that thing or rather a person, is none other than Christ himself.

I have my own personal reasons to love Him, if I had to tell you why I'd probably spend an entire day and night talking about it.

And if you're a hater, well haters gonna hate anyway but the point to question yourself about this whole sense of love/hate against Christianity is the personal factor.

What has Christianity done to you in such a manner that you have developed such feelings?

If its for something really personal, then by all means, I will empathize on your situation and as a friend hear your problems out and heck if you don't want to, I'm still your friend if you need one.

but..

Is it because of what people around you think? Why do you need to conform to their thinking? Can't you think for yourself? 

Is it because of what you hear people talk about? Why don't you find the truth about it yourself? Are you too lazy to find out about the truth? Ignorance is stupidity not a bliss.

Is it because of the massive loads of love/hate posts on the internet which makes it a need to follow this oh-so-attractive-I'm-gonna-get-popular-with-this-post trend? If it is, then that's just the purest form of bullshit I have ever know. Screw mainstream stuff.

A typical response to question the Bible's authenticity would to question on the many man-made grey areas such as dinosaurs and such. Like dude, c'mon, its written in the bible that there were dinosaurs so there are no arguments there man. Its as if your rejecting an offering of a whole mountain of diamonds because one of the diamonds  are chipped, that's not looking at the big picture, that's just looking at things to find faults in.

I'm not any different as a person than I am before I was a believer, I'm definitely a better friend/person now than I was back then. If I wasn't, I probably wouldn't be concerned for your sake and just brush your comments off. and probably flame you off.

A final remark, what's your stand? Is it something borrowed from others? Is it something picked up? Or is it your own opinion? 

What if!

What if I told you I love you.

A normal life?

There's plenty of perspectives when you look at life. Even more so when your're looking at the future. Have you thought about it? I bet you have, numerous times if not everyday.

I'm going to be 25 in two months, yes you heard it, the big 25. I'm like almost halfway through my life on this earth. And yes, I'm still studying if you're wondering. A typical asian culture would be to have judging thoughts if not looks when someone tells you that. I hate this type of cultural values. I despise it with every single cell in my body. I understand the whole idea of earning your own moolah and being independent but what I don't understand is the fact that we're all, I mean all, rushing in being an "adult". 

What do I mean by being an adult? Picture this

You are stuck in your work desk or if you're lucky, a room with a view of the next white-washed building, working in a 9 to 6 job on a permanent basis. The only thing you look forward to at times is the lunch break, the idea of getting out of that darned office and yes, the weekend, the 2 glorious days of the week.

Now you're walking to your car in the parking lot, you realize that you have been taking the same old route for awhile now but the thought of the impeding sea of cars between your office and your house causes a depressive sigh which drives out any other thoughts.

You're in your car, as you listen to the same old tunes on the stereo, cursing the thought of having to wade through this every single day, wishing that you're house was a little nearer or even the thought of having a driver to fetch you home. 

You reach home, greeted by the familiar view and scent of the compound, giving a sigh of relief thinking, "I'm finally home". 

You turn on your computer, browse through some personal emails, replying to some messages, or even watch your favourite shows on the tele. You realize that it's late and you'd not want to wake up late for work tomorrow and decide that its bedtime.

You're lying on your bed, feeling exhausted, dreading the thought of waking up the next morning to be greeted by the traffic in the morning. All of a sudden, you realize that your not really living, you're merely a mechanism performing its daily processes. You give a small pathetic laugh about it, thinking, " Its all just a process huh? " and proceed to fall asleep.

Think.

Where did all your youthful passion go to? 

What are you chasing in life?

Have I become to comfortable and contempt with life the way it is now? 

There's definitely more to this in this life right? 

The answer? To sum it all up, apart from your marriage or a change of vehicles or houses, nothing is going to change. Nothing. Depressing isn't it? Now you must be thinking, I'm not going to let my children go through this whole process, I'm going to make them travel the world! Its a good thought, but it's not the root of the problem. The problem is culture itself. The actions and behaviours which are considered a social norm.

How do we change this you say?

You can't change what people want to do with their lives but you can change yours. The world's big and there's definitely more out there. 

Live life, don't make it a process.

Don't regret your decisions, learn from your mistakes, make it a point in your life to go heads on into everything, you'd probably leave a carnage of mistakes but as long its not illegal or inflicts pain on others, who gives a shit?

Don't pull people down, don't trample down on their dreams, don't judge others as its God's will for him or her to be in that place in time, don't be a stupid old fool who laughs at other peoples' lack of "achievements" as "achievements" are nothing but empty trophies waiting to be turned into dust and disappear into nothingness. Death overlooks any achievements, it does not give any merit to it.

Be good, be merry, be optimistic. Go for a mission trip in the secluded peaks of the Himalayas, go for a humanitarian effort in the African countries, plan a drive down to the next country and bring a camera and of course a tripod if you're alone. Being attached is good, but being single is a blessing! Appreciate that stage! :)
