whats not to love about you?

today God tested my ice-cream hypothesis. its not that i had a really bad day or any of that sort, its just that i'm having a sick day.

sick meaning i have sore throat (and stuff that makes me think i've aH1N1). so yeahh, maybe its a bad day lah, but the point is.. even if it is a bad day, i can't have ice-cream cuz it'll make my day sicker. so woohoo God, point taken.

i noticed today (saturday) was quite unusual for me. because i never had a free-er saturday than today. reason being i am sick lah. and because of that, i had to miss alot of things.

morning
missed morning prayer
miss football

afternoon
thankfully i made it alive to 365 and worship practice earlier.

evening + night
missed andrew's farewell
missed going to free tenji's japanese buffet (cousin's farewell)
missed avinesh's farewell


sigh. being sick isn't cool sometimes. altho now i've acquired a temporary sexy voice, i still would give that back for japanese food T.T and yeah, to those ppl whose farewell i missed, i'm really sorry for not being able to make it! =(

and so i'm here blogging when yall are having a great time! sad child.. and yeah. thats my saturday so far. i shall go for dinner now alone and wallow in self pity and die. lol.

well despite all this, altho my day might be sickly, i still think i had an awesome day! and the only reason for it is because..

..'this is the day that the Lord has made, we (i) WILL rejoice and be glad in it.'
-Psalms 118:24






p/s : its more effective than my ice-cream theory.

the 12 tribes

ignore the title of the youtube video. it has nothing to do with its content.

was just looking up david pawson in google, and found this video. yes the title made me curious, and so i watched it. turns out to be nothing as what the title suggested. give it a good listen! really really good stuff.



he talks like a physicist! i really thought he was one.good stuff right? check out 3:23 for the anisotropic jewels. i'm sorry if the science part is a blur, he's just trying to say that in pure light condition, only the 12 jewels becomes extra colourful! whereas the others like diamonds and all don't. =)


Revelations 21 : 19-20
And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.


so i guess thats where the name jacintha comes from.

anyways, i just can't imagine anyone writing off what he just said as coincidence. isn't it too much for one?
