Happy Birthday Lawrence Mang! :Þ

Lay Your Armour Down

You get one look
I'll show you something that the night took
Abit too early for my own good
[now lets not speak of it again?]

Don't wait, Don't wait
The road is now a sudden sea
And suddenly, you're deep enough
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down
To lay your armor down

Don't Wait :: Dashboard Confessionals

Do you wonder as often as I do?

Don't Wait

The sky glows
I see it shining when my eyes close
I hear your warning but we both know
I'm gonna look at it again

Don't Wait :: Dashboard Confessionals

I love lightening.

My granma used to think I was crazy for staring out of the window during violent storms.

I love turning off the light and, in the unnatural darkness, watch the pelting rain collide on the window pane. I love the low grumble and then the sudden shapeshifting flash followed by a deafening clap of thunder crashing rudely through my head. I love the roar of the wind, howling and whistling through a hole in my broken window, making me feel so vulnerable and yet so safe behind the glass of the window. It makes your heart beat fast, it makes your body tremble with impatient anticipation of the next lightening streak. Come to think of it...its like cable tv, only with scent. I love the smell of rain. I hear its geosmin. Nothing smells like it. And it smells the same everywhere in the world, only its accentuated in the tropics.

I had hoped to encounter another one of these tropical storms on my visit here. So far no luck. I hear Sydney experienced some of it though. I hope it really pours one of these days. I kinda miss it.

So long and thanks for all the fish!

Been in Malaysia for a week and 2 hours now! Eating too much....but yea. Having a good time. I've been subtly brainwashing friends to move to Australia. May or may not happen. I hope its the former. Not being particularly productive, but I suppose productivity is relative. Depending on what I've come here to do, I suppose I've achieved almost all my goals except for finishing the books I wanted to read:

• Shardik - Richard Adams

• Cross Of Christ - John Stott

• Brief History of Heaven - Alistair McGrath

• Case For A Creator - Lee Strobel

Okay. Maybe being slightly ambitious. I used to be able to read that many in 2 weeks! Age is so debilitating.... ;_;

Anyways, kylc a couple of weeks ago was a mad experience! Here's Michael the Magician doing his thang. I'm in the background! With the pedro shirt :P By the way, Michael also did the watch trick with my watch and it worked! So cool... He's so cool.. ♥

House

House is like my most favourite tv show ever.

You know you really really like a show when you watch a show and think, "dude... this has got to be my favourite episode!". And being the fan that you are, you watch the next episode on your DVD set and then think, "no wait...duuude! This is my favourite episiode!" Only to hear yourself repeat those thoughts for the next 5 episodes; each one leaving you more inspired and more breathless than the episode before.

House is just so. darn. good. I'm soo getting Season 2 in Malaysia. Yes la.. non-pirated.

Happy Birthday Cal :)

Cowra 007

Cowra Summer Breakout 2007 starts today.

Y'know how I dislike doing things that amount to nothing. I try not to play too many computer/video games cos it doesn't produce any fruit. However, I like to read because it adds to your knowledge. I guess some people will see religion as fruitless. That we're just believing in a lie and the energy we put into it is a waste of time. To them I say, the truth will always be the truth even if you don't think it is.

Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.

1 Corinthians 15:58

Doing things for the glory of God is the most productive thing I could ever do on earth and in time, in Heaven.

Corn is the new Shove

Yay pressies!

I thought that John Mayer's "gone gone gone gone gone" was a pretty corny line. Until I heard Damien Rice's " . . .my mind. . .my mind . . .".

O.o

That really takes the cake!!!!

Congrats to Damien Rice who wins the 'Corniest Song Line 2006 Award ' (applaud now).
