Love as a verb, rather than as a feeling.

"Love Hurts", "Love's Blind"
People in love or who's been in love always ramble these 2 lines.
But come to think of it, I think its more of "Love Hurts" rather than "Love's Blind". "Love Hurts" not in the sense that you broke up with your boyfriend or girlfriend. Instead, it's the things you do to each other. Just a word of advice, if you want to improve your relationships, don't see love as a feeling, instead, love as a verb.

There's something about cuddly couple cuteness that irks us like nails on a blackboard. If you're guilty of committing any of these offences, you, too, are startling strangers with your achingly amorous affections.

I think those who are about to fall in love or are already in love should consider reading this article which i chanced upon in a magazine.

Stealth heavy petting You can't keep your mitts off her. We get it. But don't think we don't know you're tickling your lover's thigh under the table. Keep your paws where we can see 'em!
Glimpse of heaven You house is perfect. You're both beautiful beyond belief. You're healthy, hip and hygienic. But don't tortore me with the beach photos from that fabulous trip. to Tahiti.
All dressed So he doesn't bot to the altar of GQ. That doesn't give you the right to drape sweaters over him like he's your personal Ken doll. Let the man dress himself.
Nauseating nicknames Poopykins. Honey bear. Baby boo. Muffin cake. Whatever happen to good ol' "dear?"
Frankenlovers That's not how it happen. . . Oh, Sweetie, you always forgot what i wore on our first date. . .Sound familiar? If you want to maintain seperate identities, quit correcting your lover's version of events. Let Poppykins speak!

insect invasion

I'm afraid of darkness and creepy crawlies.

On days when I sleep late, I'm talking about 3-4 am, I get really freaked out by the night-life in my house. Lizards, roaches, worms, flies, everything. Nearly the entire collection of insects can be found in some corner of my house. How not freaked out can I get. But think of it from another angle, my house is a good place for breeding insects. It's cosy and comforty, that's why insects come and breed. (right, that didn't make sense)
My mum made a ludicrous comment this morning. She said that our house is blessed by insects. That's more nutty than what I said previously. But her statement generated this thought - raining insects. When all those grasshoppers and hairy worms start dropping from clouds and landing right on your arms and clothes. how cool is that.
Think i better stop before i get a nightmare of insects.

Killings and World Peace

There is a need for World Peace, seriously. Many said that there will be more disaster this year. Some even said that there will be much more disasters taking place each year. Who knows? Disasters actually occur only when hazards strike in vulnerable areas. We can't control the incidence of natural disaster. It strikes almost anytime and anywhere, or at least the more vulnerable areas. But man-made disasters (war, terrorism, etc.) are the ones which can be controlled.

Terrorism is regarded as a constant threat to all people of the world in the early 21st century. Here, it’s in the case of the 911 attack in 2001 which appears to be the worst disaster of its kind. 4 airliners were hijacked from American international airports: one was flown into the Pentagon, 2 flown right into the WTC towers in NYC, causing both to collapse and the last was forced down via passengers’ action into a field. Just this attack took away the lives of about 3000. In 2004, a series of bombings took place in several waiting cars in a train station in Spain. The transportation systems of London were bombed in 3 locations in 2005. Some call this the 7/7 bombings.

And there’s Saddam Hussein, ousted Iraqi President. Everyone around the world relate him to the world’s best known and most hated Arab leader. He’s one sadistic ‘leader’ (well I don’t regard him as one) who committed crimes in a brutal crackdown during his reign. Well at least he’s been executed. So let’s just hope that Sadddam’s hanging will help bring stability to Iraq.

People like him should all be executed in the most brutal way. I may sound quite sadistic here but they’ll have to pay back double or even much more for all their evil doings. Well I still think the best method to kill them all is a slow death. If they’re to die just in that few seconds, it’ll be so cheap for them. So I was thinking of modifying the electric chair method. Instead of soaking the sponge they place on the convict’s head with a lot of water, soak it with enough water just so an electric current can pass through. And adding a small amount of water each time. In this way they’ll suffer a hell load and die a slow and painful death. (gah I sound so evil here)

Yes, so my main point is to exterminate all those sadistic people, especially those sadistic leaders who cause the most harm to their people. And lastly I say I hope for world peace.

Happy 2007

Towards the end of the year we tend to reflect on what happened and what we accomplished in the year that passed. The New Year is a time of hope as we reflect on the past and prepare for the future.

As I look forward to 2007, I have many ambitions. I want world peace, a place where every man and woman can enjoy peace, and someday realize how beautiful the world a place it can be. I want freedom and independence. I want to play twice as much and twice as hard as I did in the past year. The list goes on and on. There're just simply too many 'I want' to list down.

I hope to go into the New Year with renewed hope and confidence.
I wish you all a Happy and healthy 2007.

Boxing Day

26/12 is Boxing Day. On the same day today, 2 years ago, the world experienced one of the worst natural disasters ever recorded.

The devastating tsunami struck countries around the Indian Ocean causing death and destruction on an unprecedented scale. This was followed by a number of vicious hurricanes across the Caribbean and the inundation of the city of New Orleans. Then in the autumn came the massive earthquake in Pakistan and India.

This series of dreadful events has brought loss and suffering to so many people - and their families and friends - not only in the countries directly affected, but almost everyone around the world.

As if these disasters were not bad enough, I have sometimes thought that humanity seemed to have turned on itself - with wars, civil disturbances and acts of brutal terrorism. In this world many people's lives were totally changed by the terrorist attacks, natural disasters and more.

These natural and human tragedies provided the headline news; they also provoked a quite remarkable humanitarian response. People of compassion all over the world responded with immediate practical and financial help.

Certainly the need for selflessness and generosity in the face of hardship is nothing new. The veterans of the Second World War whom we honoured last summer can tell us how so often, in moments of greatest trial, those around them seemed able to draw on some inner strength to find courage and compassion. We see this today in the way that young men and women are calmly serving our country around the world often in great danger.

Year 2004 has reminded us that this world is not always an easy or a safe place to live in, but it is the only place we have. I believe also that it has shown us all how our faith - whatever our religion - can inspire us to work together in friendship and peace for the sake of our own and future generations.
