Warning: Contagious Virus

The Centre for Disease Control has issued a medical alert about a highly contagious, potentially dangerous virus that is transmitted orally, by hand, and even electronically.

This virus is called Weekly Overload Recreational Killer (WORK)..

If you receive WORK from your boss, any of your colleagues or anyone else via any means whatsoever - DO NOT TOUCH IT!!! This virus will wipe out your private life entirely. If you should come into contact with WORK you should immediately leave the premises.

Take two good friends to the nearest liquor store and purchase one or both of the antidotes - Work Isolating Neutralizer Extract (WINE) and Bothersome Employer Elimination Rebooter (BEER). Take the antidote repeatedly until WORK has been completely eliminated from your system.

You should immediately forward this medical alert to five friends. If you do not have five friends, you have already been infected and WORK is, sadly, controlling your life. Get help immediately.

Updates

Like anyone would read my blog...

I'm going to University of Melbourne this coming mid Feb.
Don't ask me when is mid Feb. The answer is I DUNNO @.@
Studying what? Architecture aka playing LEGO but megascale.
Actually it's designing la.
Shall have many sleepless nights soon.
Go there minimum three years to do degree.

What other things you want to know?
Post it in comment la.

P.S. I'm not that tall,
can be quite a painful experience
for your neck when talking to me=p
I don't play basketball.
Please don't call me Caleb, my brother's name
I look more like Harry Potter than Caleb!

Facebook Domination

I just realised that Facebook has pretty much dominate my life.
Not that I can't live without it.
After all, it's the best way to know what's on for me.

It's strange that when 
I'm extremely busy during the last few months of AUSMAT
I blogged every day.
Then when I'm really free like this month,
I don't blog, until now.

Facebook has become my microblogging site.

Facebook for me it's still a great thing.
Don't mind it dominating, 
unlike many those skeptical "more mature ones"=p

Now I remember everyone's birthday 
(provided they are on facebook)
And I don't think there's much "sincerity" issue here.
It's another better reminder.

It helps in my further studies.
Without facebook, I'll know nuts 
what's happening with my scholarship
visa, uni placement, accommodation and filling up forms.

Best of all as Facebook says
"Facebook helps you connect and share with the people in your life."
That means a lot for me.

It's a place where I keep in touch with 
my camps friends, SAGC bros and sis, CYD, KBU, SABS, Semambu, Kuantan.
Some people say that a lot are virtual friends
but for me I don't simply add people on facebook,
yet can have 800++ friends.
Best still Facebook, helps me to communicate better with these friends.
Maintaining friendship, 
rather than letting it out of my mind of wonderful people I met.

Oh yeah, about the stalking issue,
I do enjoy "stalking" many people=p
but they post it up there and that means the whole world knows.
Plus, it helps me to know one better
and be more sensitive and understanding in friendship.

However, I'm rather annoyed at the nonsense applications on Facebook. 
However, many people just seem to enjoy their time doing those things.

All said, you control Facebook
and don't let Facebook booked you.
Use it wisely.

P.S. It's been ages I updated this blog. 
Shall update more often. Hopefully daily.

ASAP

Ever wonder about the abbreviation A.S.A.P.? Generally we think of it in terms of even more hurry and stress in our lives. Maybe if we think of this abbreviation in a different manner, we will begin to find a new way to deal with those rough days along the way.

There's work to do, deadlines to meet;
You've got no time to spare, but as you hurry and scurry - ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER

In the midst of family chaos, "Quality time" is rare.
Do your best; let God do the rest - ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER.

It may seem like your worries are more than you can bear. Slow down and take a breather- ASAP - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER..

God knows how stressful life is; He wants to ease our cares, and He'll respond to all your needs A.S.A.P. - ALWAYS SAY A PRAYER.

Breadwinner

My life revolves pretty much about bread.
Plain Gardenia and High Five Jumbos
Butterscotch and Toastem.
I was a breadwinner! (as in I ate a TONNES of bread!)
Bread that makes me grow more hungry
and more thin=p
Bread is boring...

Today I ate a little bread,
Gardenia NORMAL bread.
But it reminds me of the Bread of Life.
The Bread that once taken will never be hungry.

Yesterday and today
I was troubled by the word friendship again.
The many normal Gardenia I've taken for granted.

Yesterday and today
I was overjoyed by the word Friendship AGAIN.
The true Bread of life that says "I forgive."
And gives me strength to endure the guilt.
I am blessed to be a breadwinner of this Bread.


WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS
Joseph Scriven

What a Friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a Friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness -
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Are we weak and heavy-laden
Burdened with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Do your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer
In his arms he'll take and shield you
You will find a solace there

P.S. I'm emo and happy at the same time...
