Sensitive Issues

For once in a very long time, I thought I might as well make a serious post regarding a couple of issues: Memory loss With age comes this problem. It takes a toll on working adults like me and it is torturous to remember a gazillion usernames and passwords, the names of all the people I work with, important knowledge and facts, etc. On the bright side, people like me tend to be happier and more forgiving because we forget the anger and hurts more easily. As the saying goes, "ignorance is bliss". To the people who harbour revenge and hurts for a long time, let me remind you that it is unhealthy for your mind, especially if you are up against forgetful people, because the only one who suffers from your unforgiveness is you, not the happy person who doesn't even remember what he or she did to anger you. Bottle all that rage up over some time and you're bound to "snap", perhaps even going to extent of breaking the law. Learn to forgive and let go. Move...

Sculptures cut from a single sheet of paper by Peter Callesen

Sculptures cut from a single sheet of paper by Peter Callesen.  : “By taking away all the information and starting from scratch using the white A4 paper sheet for my creations, I feel I have found a material that we are all able to relate to, and at the same time the A4 paper sheet is neutral and open to fill with different meaning. The thin white paper gives the paper sculptures a frailty that underlines the tragic and romantic theme of my works. The paper cut sculptures explore the probable and magical transformation of the flat sheet of paper into figures that expand into the space surrounding them. The negative and absent 2 dimensional space left by the cut, points out the contrast to the 3 dimensional reality it creates, even though the figures still stick to their origin without the possibility of escaping. In that sense there is also an aspect of something tragic in many of the cuts.” “By taking away all the information and starting from scratch using the w...

Do you remember that time...?

unsuccessful-metalbenders : Guys, hey, guys. Do you remember that time that Coulson called Natasha and she ended up forming the Avengers?  Remember how she did that by digging up Bruce Banner and introducing Steve to him then was the voice of reason when Tony and Steve were bickering and then how she brought Clint back from being mind controlled so that they can be a team? Remember that? Remember how the Black Widow out smarted a god? Remember that time she kept her shit together when the Hulk attacked her, even though she was really scared? Remember when she knocked an alien off his flying scooter and figured out how to drive it despite it being extrateresstrial tech, then got her ass up to the top of Stark Tower, found Loki’s staff and saved the world from being invaded by turning off the tesseract?   Remember how she was the central character of the whole freaking movie?

Time Force - A fight against fate

Image
"The future isn't written in stone. We each make our own destiny." - Wes Collins (Power Rangers Time Force) Till today, Time Force has been the PR series that left the deepest impact in my life. The characters and plot are simply awesome. The story begins in a utopian-like future, in the year 3000, where all criminals have been captured, except for one - Ransik. Alex, the Time Force red ranger, finally manages to capture Ransik, but one mistake changes history, literally. Assisted by his daughter and accomplices, Ransik breaks free while being transported to jail by Jen, Lucas, Katie and Trip. In a final showdown with Ransik, Alex is struck down, Ransik and his gang escape to the year 2001 and Jen (Alex's fiance) makes a promise to Alex to capture Ransik. Together with her team, Jen, Lucas, Katie and Trip chase after Ransik into the past, where they are outnumbered by the robot army. Soon, they cross paths with Wes, a good fighter who offers them...

We have victory in Christ

Here's a quick testimony that I would to share: 11 Nov 2012 Last week, my class had a school sports competition and so far, we had a poor sports track record. However, I was confident in the Lord and prayed a quick prayer claiming His promise of using the weak to overcome the strong. To everyone's surprise, my class made it into the finals and eventually won the competition. Some were shocked that we were the underdog winner. 2017 In a stunning underdog victory, my home class and their seniors took the champion trophy after their excellent performance in several events. Anyhow, I am just thankful to the Lord for His lead to their victory! He is indeed powerful and merciful. I just pray that people will come to know the Lord through this testimony and join me in glorifying Jesus' name.

Keep Pressing On

True friendships will last a lifetime. Though a family quarrels sometimes, they are the ties you can count on when the going gets tough. Cheers to our friends, our little home away from home, who believe that we can achieve your dreams. Don't give up and keep pressing on the upward road! Your results/status don't determine your future. You determine it. You can overwhelm other people's expectations of you and show them that even the weak can overcome the strong. You might not know what you want to do in the future, but keep your mind open to opportunities and possibilities. They are endless.

That Teenage Boy Band Phase

Every girl goes through this phase at least once in a lifetime. The names of boy bands you like tell a lot about the generation you come from. Someday, future generations of girls will grow up with a new generation of boy bands, not knowing about the bands from your good old days. All these become part of your memory and will become something to laugh about in old age. Here is the time for the ladies from my generation to remember the band that:
