5 years, 3 months and 8 days

Hi (to the few faithful & silent) readers,

Apologies that my blog has been truly boring (not reflective of who I am... :p).

Thank you for reading my blog. I have been blogging since 25th June 2006. Therefore, my relationship with this blog has been 5 years, 3 months and 8 days long. It has been a while yeah?

A lot has changed since 2006. Let's look at some of the changes I identified.

Changes I Identified (what I can think of)...

1. Continuation of education (Honestly, I did not think I will return to school since I'm a generally lazy person).

2. Re-entered into a romantic relationship with a former boyfriend (It's ancient history now. Nonetheless it was inevitable, I'm glad I moved on and became better & stronger!).

3. Experiences from jobs of different nature (Totally worth my time!).

4. Be employed in the same job for more than a year (Yay! Considering that I'm easily bored once unmotivated and unentertained... I have done it twice now!).

5. Met people that changed my life (Turning points in my life to realise my goals).

6. Identified the goals I want to achieve for most part of my life (This includes my constant conscious effort).

7. Participated in more voluntary activities/events for causes I support.

8. Give to causes I believe in.

9. Have a different take on romantic relationships (I'm not sure is this good or bad but I've became a more skeptical person).

10. Now enjoys decorating my room.

11. Drinks much more coffee.

12. More aware of money I spent.

13. More positive and hopeful.

14. Much more politically aware.

15. More open to alternative ideas (To a certain extent, I would qualify who I was as a bias person. Not that now I'm not. It is just that I make more effort to listen).

Etc...

What Hasn't Changed (what I can think of)?

1. I still love God.

2. I still love my family and close ones deeply.

3. I still enjoy daydreaming (Yes, my lower primary school form teacher actually type-written in my reportcard that I seem to be constantly doing so).

4. I am still pretty much headstrong.

5. I still can't be sure who I am going to marry, whether I will have kids, how long will I be on this planet and the list goes on...

Hope you had fun reading... Have a nice day!

Personal Perspective on CHC Fiasco

My personal perspective on the City Harvest Church fiasco: #1. God is omnipresent (present everywhere), omnipotent (all powerful), omniscient (all knowing) and God knew about this episode. I believe God is watching.; #2. The CAD does not charge without concrete evidence (they have taken sufficient time to investigate - 2 years). May justice prevail.; #3. It is unavoidable for members of the public with little information about Christianity to judge.  It is also one of my weaknesses to be quick to judge/form negative impression about others, which is unhealthy.; #4. I believe to a certain extent, the message of giving and tithing is relatively strong in City Harvest Church - I may be wrong.  (fyi, I have visited the church a couple of times) My personal belief is that it is important to give to God because God is the creator of everything that exists. He owns everything and we are simply stewards of what we have been entrusted with.  Though I have to say I seldom give because I

Pledge "No" to Shark Fin Soup

Something to share... The Sharks died for you but you only consume their fins. I've pledge not to eat/drink Shark Fin Soup since 2009. I believe that raising awareness of the source of this delicacy will propel more people to make a conscious effort to stop their consumption, especially during Chinese wedding banquets. Yeah, I know that some of us might think that not much can be done and it is essentially a waste of food. However, why not think about it this way - when there is a drop in demand, there will be lesser restaurants/hotels serving this dish. Every effort counts and when it becomes a collective effort, we can begin to see a positive change. Additionally, I believe to affirm a conscious effort and remain faithful is to take a step forward to take a pledge. http://www.wwf.sg/take_action/sustainable_seafood/say_our_sharks/take_the_pledge/ Pam
