First time watching a Batman show. Another one of those superhero stylo milo show. The joker is ruthless. I wonder where the director/producer get the 'killings' ideas from.. How can they be so creative to come such psycho killing ideas like the "permanent smile" (and etc). I wonder if they have done research and have seen such deeds somewhere in the world.. if they do, that is really scary! Though the ending of such shows is always the good triumphs over the evil, but i just simply help but think if such killing ideas should be screened internationally. It could just simply giving the extremists more ideas to kill and torture (or perhaps they do not even need to be taught). Referencing the Roman history... perhaps their psycho-ness is even more psycho. They throw people into the lions' den to see how the beasts tear up human for enjoyment. People in the world are living in fear. Some fear lack. Some fear the supernatural, and the list goes on. However, the most f...

Nowadays, before you can partake of your food, not only you must say grace (for christian), before you indulge in your delicious meal, it is a trend to have your camera to 'devour' the food first before it fills your empty stomach. What has the world turning into?

A picture i took from my office today. Rain is coming in. shhoooosh! Rain down! My heart is dry but still I'm singing, rain down... rain it down!

I have been wondering why for many years, why do ladies like to use sitting toilet bowl when squat is more hygienic. There are times you see footprints on the pedestal. Apparently some squatted on top of the pedestal seat. How 'considerate' they are! Some don't know how they sit, never 'aim' (yea right. Ladies need to aim too) properly and dirty the pedestal seat. To weigh to pros and cons, personally i think squat is so much better than sit. Why have all the public toilets turn most of the cubicles to sitting toilet bowl? Only yesterday then i realised the possible reason. It was my grandpa's 90th birthday. My family made a trip back to Malaysia to celebrate this BIG occasion with him. Half way through the dinner, my grandma wanted to go to the restroom. I held her there. The inconsiderate me trying to look for a clean squatting cubicle for her, at the same time she is looking for a sitting one. Not understanding why, i held her to the sitting cubicle. While sh...

This picture was taken from an old alley in VilleFranche, France. If you are there, you might not even give it a second look. But this picture was beautifully taken and it has a 'taste', really made this alley look beautiful and rich. So i have a thought... Photographers like beautiful things or Photographers see things beautifully?

I picked up a book (Christmas present from my bosses) a couple of days ago, wanted to share this part with you guys/gals. Becoming a person of influence by John C Maxwell & Jim Dornan; An amusing story about the impact of influence comes from the administration of President Calvin Coolidge. An overnight guest at the White House was having breakfast with Coolidge one morning, and he wanted to make a good impression on the president. He noticed that Coolidge, having been served his coffee, took the coffee cup, poured some of its contents into a deep saucer, and leisurely added a little bit of sugar and cream. Not wanting to breach any rules of etiquette, the visitor followed the commander n chief's lead, and he poured some of his coffee into his saucer and added sugar and cream. Then he waited for the president's next move. He was horrified to see him place the saucer on the floor for the cat. No one reported what the visitor did next. Well, i couldn't help giggling after...

I was looking for the chords of a particular song. It cannot be found in the website I usually patron. Asked a friend, and I got what I need. Some thoughts after this: It is not just about asking the 'right' person. It is about asking a person who is willing to go an extra mile for you. Even when the person does not have what you want, when she is willing to go an extra mile and source out for you, that's a friend indeed.

对不起，我一声不响。 今天，我去看了星星。

I came across an article today. It is such a lovely story... ------------------------------------------------------------- It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80's, arrived to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am. I took his vital signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before someone would be able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch, and decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his wound. On exam, it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound. While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor's appointment this morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her health; he told me that she had been there for a while and that she ...

有时爱可以是种习惯。 你每一句的‘我爱你’可能是一个习惯。 习惯，成为了自然。。而慢慢的，自然也变成了理所当然。 爱，就不知不觉停留在那理所当然。 也许，是太习惯了那理所当然， 所以也很自然的接受这份爱。 时不时就会有这种感觉： 你是真的爱我吗？ ---------------------------------------------------------------- 我所说的这份爱，不一定是夫妻之间的爱。 也许是对子女的爱，朋友之间的爱，对家长的爱。。 对教会的爱，对神的爱，对事物的爱。。等。 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Reading list: The Memory Keeper's daughter by Kim Edwards.

Good news! MRT has finally 'brighten up'! They have changed their bench! Not sure if you have realised that the metal benches that they used to install in the various MRT stations? Those up to the butt height, top is slightly slanted, making the surface very 'slippery'. You cant simply sit firmly on it because your butt kept sliding off! Now they have changed to a flat surface. It is so much better! Design is so important! Beautiful things may not be practical. Food that taste good may not be healthy. Sometimes life is full of contradictions.

This is the 'masterpiece' i did last December. Ever since after i left secondary two, i have not touch brushes and paint till i did the module on Creative Arts last year. Quite satisfied with this piece of work, though its far from good. But i think i did well with the shades of tones. Definitely i cannot claim all the credits cause my lecturer helped me with some parts when she used mine as a demo to the rest of the class. However, there is a flaw, or i should say fault. See if you can idenitfy it. You dont need to be an artist to realise it, just need to be more observant. Clue: nothing to do with the techniques or colours. =) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For older blogs, go to metamorphoziz.blogspot.com

My husband recently has this urge to start a blog on tots; yea, parents thoughts abt their tots, tots' thoughts, thoughts of the tots, any thoughts on tot of all colors, shapes, sizes, culture of human race are welcome to blog it down. So he bought a domain name - http://www.blogtots.com/ He intended it to be an online journal where parents keep a record of e life journey of their child, and by the time their child are competent and mature to take over the blog and continue the rest of their life story themselves. Further to that, he is very keen to start a community/network for local mums to share about their experiences, struggles n joy with the rest of the mummies out there. It can also be a place where new mummies could find useful and interesting articles where it comes to their child's development. Looking for confinement lady? Nannies? Reviews of islandwide childcare can be found as well.. so he bought another domain name - http://www.jollitots.com/ Yea, good idea. Howe...

Couple of days ago, i was coordinating a wedding. And through it i learnt something... When you are in the midst of making an important decision, there bound to be lots of 'creative' ideas (be it relevant or irrelevant) bombarded to you (yes, even from the field experts) which may hinder you from making THE RIGHT decision. And if you are like me, you will definitely be shaken and would easily go for the 'popular' idea, which may be disastrous. However, those ideas are not not-do-able. Perhaps for that immediate circumstance, it is not workable. There are moments where we may try to attempt on the popular idea (simply because its popular,or they may seems favourable to many at that point of time), in order to cover up the 'unsettle-ness' in our heart, we begin to waste time looking for (more) support from elsewhere-from people whom we could get more security and assurance; instead of staying calm n resolute if this is really the right decision. Thank God everythi...

I kept asking myself what is the thing that is withholding me. I asked.. and i found myself saying "privacy and freedom". I began to ask myself again, "is it really that important?" I almost burst into tears.. I guess it is. I begin to dread chinese new year. Can see the common factor in each sentence? (Its the big "I") Am i too selfish? All i think is myself. But is it wrong to love yourself? Or am i overboard? With the thoughts of how life would be... i simply hate it. Perhaps i think too much. Things might not be so bad as i thought. Yea, it will not. But i am not willing to let go of my privacy just as yet... not now, nor will be. Perhaps, i just got to look at it with another perspective and learn to be happy, and live through it. But i know it will take alot, alot, alot, alot of time and effort to convince myself. Its just THE choice i have to accept, and make another choice to be happy. ---------------------------------------------------------------...

Today is the start of a new working day. Nothing new. Still, there are people wanting to be the first to get into the train, and the first to get out. Still, there are people wanting to be the first to get into the lift, and the first to get out. Still, even when you have already signaled to the person who is pushing behind you that you will be getting off at the same station as him/her (even when you have no space to make way), the person still pushes you anyway. Still, ladies like to put their EZ link card in their bag, and refuses to take out their card even when the gantry cant detect their card. Their persistency caused a long queue behind them, and yet, they are still flipping their bag....

A few more hours to 2008. To be exact, 7.5hrs to 2008. Whats the difference except that we will all have to start writing '08' intead of '07'? Had a meeting two days ago. Alot of us shared that 2007 was a tough, difficult, stretching year for each one of us. One of them shared that he is hoping that 2007 can quickly finish and start a new year afresh. I was just pondering on this statement these few days. Do we really need to wait for a new year to start afresh? After 5,4,3,2,1... its just another normal day. The difference between the old year and the new year is just merely 1sec. Is there a need to reserve the decision of starting anew for 4days? Does it mean that i can allow myself to fail and continue to live a difficult live in these four days before the new year come? or is there something magical going to happen when the clock strikes twelve? This is the mindset that everyone embraced worldwide. Even me, yea, i got to admit. Wait till new year, then i will do thi...

The word of the Lord came to me today during worship. 1. Courage to lead 2. Boldness to validate 3. Authority to influence

He's hurt. My tears flowed once i saw the message. He didn't. "Everything is alright." he said, bracing the front and carried on. For that moment, the word came flesh to me, "you are the bone of my bones, the flesh of my flesh." Indeed God created woman out of man's left rib. Woman, completes the man, vice versa. Without knowing the whole epsoide, i can feel his hurts explicity. He didn't cry. Instead, i cried on his behalf. I cried his grieves out. This closeness that we shared, the access to each other's feelings, makes me love him even more... ....an excerpt from 'The Woman'
