Reflections & Resolutions

Dear readers,

It is that time of the year once again. It is like having a mid life crisis or perhaps in this case a quarter of a century life crisis. Did I just float along with life? Or did I ardently pursue a path? I just went with the former.

I have lost a number of things this year. I have lost my passion for the many things of God. The events in life have left my soul weary and downcast. Tell me, where do you draw the line between compassion and pity, respect and expectations, love and duty, obedience and sacrifice? I do wonder if my heart has grown cold and numb. Have I compromised my walk with God? Did I let the distractions pull away my focus?

I think love is not loud but silent, deep and strong. And very often it would leave you burnt and alone because love is selfless. Yes, love hurts. Perhaps I should save myself the trouble and heartache and just walk the other way. But how can I deny Him, having experienced His love? I cannot let go of my God.

And my resolutions? To pursue my God. In my abstinence of Him, I have come to realize how His guidance and wisdom taught me to be a better person, how His gentleness instantly quiets my fears and makes me bold, how His humour leaves me laughing and content and how His love and faithfulness keeps drawing me back to Him.

I need to make right with my Lord again.

A Day At The Fish Spa

Dear readers, No doubt, you would have heard tons of fascinating things about the new craze in town: the fish spa. What you are going to find out in the next few minutes would probably change your perspective of this new and trendy relaxation method. Well, it sure freaked me out. It was a typical Sunday evening, when one of my cousins suggested that we try something different for a change rather than just bumming around and watching You Tube like a bunch of Internet junkies. She heard from her friend's cousin's friend's boyfriend's sister that there is a newly opened fish spa near our apartment. She even got a coupon for a 15 minute free session, which fitted very well into our budget. So, we decided to give it a try. The location of the shop was pretty shady but the proprietor (Miss R) seemed friendly enough. She was actually inspired to start the fish spa after watching some loc als in the jungles of the Amazon perform their yearly ritual to appease the pagan river g...

Lecka Lecka

Dear readers, If you have tasted the mango yoghurt ice cream in Mango Mania and thought it was good, well, I have news for you: go out and explore dude! Yes, there is a better one. Where? Lecka leckha of course! Price: only RM6.90. It taste like real mango and I am not freaking kidding or exaggerating. They probably took a mango, pureed it and then froze it. Simply awesome! :D Their sorbet comes in a variety of flavor, some yummy ones being passion fruit, watermelon, strawberry, lime and of course mango. They also have other sinful flavors like oreos, cookies n’ cream … well you get the drift.

My Day Off (Day 01) - Invite a friend for a dip in the pool

Dear readers, Have you ever been stumped on what to do on your day off, especially when you are completely broke to even consider a short vacation? Well, I was initially in this sad preposition when an old friend, Bartholomew dropped by. Now, you might probably know him better as Bart. If you don't, then might I suggest that you get a life and watch some TV for a change. Anyway, Bart is well known for his antics and bouts of mischief. So quite naturally, what started out as a day of chillin' in the tub, turned out to be a near death experience for Bart. Kids, don't try this at home. Warning: Viewer discretion advised. The next few photos might be disturbing. Bart chillin' in the tub Doin' some swimmin' The Tub Bart taking it up a notch by attempting a dive The plunge What a dive! Oh dear, he is in too deep Alarmingly lifeless in the tub Lifeguard doing CPR on Bart Please, do not be alarmed, my friends. I am happy to report that Bart is currently recupera...
