Hmm.. I'm starting to lose interest in blogging. (Gasp!) Gosh.. cos I always pour out my personal thoughts for the world out there to see. Especially in times where workload is high, I will blabber all my greviances. Its scary cos I do not seem to be the girl I am in this blog and in reality. But that's what blogging is about right? Showing another side of your self that restrictions in society do not allow you to show... but think about it.. everyone will see my blog. Those who do not know me well will start to see me in a different way.. thats what I'm most afraid of. Call it inferiority complex. Haha. I have it.
Sigh.. I am always so afraid of how people see me.. its bad.... that means whether I'm happy with treatment I get or not, I will always take it lying down. Then I bottle up the anger, unhappiness and it manifests in another way. Which way? Being angry at myself for not doing anything. I can't go on life this way man.. I will die early. Everything bad that happens a huge portion will go to blaming myself. If I stilll let this happen, in future I will be taken advantge of. No! Cannot!
No no no..... I have to let the volcano in me erupt sometimes. But when that happens, its a scary thing. Can validate that with sisterly quarrels. Haha.
So. I'm still trying to reach a stage where my thoughts and actions are in-sync. I don't really want to hide my emotions anymore. I want to be able to voice my opinions of what am I not pleased about, not go around dumbly agreeing with everyone else. That's mainly because I'm afraid of people. I can't believe how much more afraid of people I was before my uni days then today. I din even dare to make an official phone call to companies. The notion of calling a stranger- even calling students whom I don't know- scares me till my heart races and my fingers turn cold. I'm scared of everyone... my tution teachers, my driving instructor, my colleagues, my pastors, some of my friends, my parents, the professors in school ( for the reson they hold the title of 'professor') , my aunties, my uncles, blahh blahh blahh... Its disgusting right? Too be frightend of people to such a large extent.
In fact the notion of ghosts, dark places and creepy crawlies don't frighten me as people. These things do not form a relationship with you whereby you see them everyday. People do. People have the power to make my life miserable, my boss or teacher for instance. They have the power to push me to unbearable limits. They have the power to psychologically intimidate me. Thats why I'm so afraid of people. And in turn how I present myself to others.

Funny Bone
Recently my bones are behaving funnily, especially my hip bone and thigh bone, and my knee bone. They crack.
Especially the knuckle of my thigh and hip bone, where they join together. Whenever I adjust my butt on a seat, or try to cross my leg, they give a "krok" Wahhh.... the feeling is damn shiokman... I feel so flexible after that, like I can do s spilt. (right....)
Then my right knee, sometimes they give a crack too. Again.. the feeling is damn shiok... ahhhh
Then my shoulder blades crack too. But not as shiok cos they crack when I feel backaches. Haha My toes always crack too.. so does my fingers, even my wrists... haha
But they always feel goood after they crack... I feel like rubber after that... Or maybe because I'm getting old.. my joints are getting stiff. :P
Ahh.... I think its because of rock climbing, my thigh bone and hips start cracking more often.. good good.. means I'm getting more flexible.. :)
I remember this horrible incident which stretched my flexibility limits beyond my imagination. Haha... this Tummam route that I was trying. Here's a sketch: In this position, I was trying to shift my body weight to the left. My friends were telling me: sit in! sit in! (meaning rest my butt on my heel) I was trying my damn best to... somemore the wall was inclined... so hard.. so using my right leg which was swinging in mid-air I tried to tighten my muscles so that I could shift to the left. I stretched and stretched.. den I gave up.
After that my right leg went numb and I limped around, knocking over some chairs and tripping over some rope. Den I had a terrible pulled muscle for a week. ButI think after stretching so much and adjusting my hip so that it stuck to the wall as closely as possible, it somehow became more flexible, and cracked more.. which was shiok. :)
Ahh .... funny bones.... hahahahaha

My lips: to bless or to swear?
As already mentioned previously, I am prone to swearing at times of anxiety. Tsk tsk tsk.. can't tell from my "guai" looks but I do.. especially thru MSN and blogging. So embarrassed I am, I decided to hide my face with the picture of my teddy bear. She's called ELizabeth. Say hi to her...anyway the previous photo of mine looked soo perverse, I got comments left by people asking me to join some sexually connotated website.... Errgghhh....
So, as I was having my wmd this morning... it dawned upon me that I use my very lips to praise God, to say holy things... yet at other times it is an instrument to curse to bad-mouth.. I felt it was improper...
So.. I prayed for myself to stop using all the swear words or to speak badly against anyone. I really want to make an effort to do so.. really. But anyway, a strange thing happened after I prayed. My lips began to feel fuzzy and there was this throbbing sensation. It lasted for a while.. I sat there with my mouth gapping slightly open like a fish. My lips felt like it was ticking away. Strange.. hmm. Whatever, as long as it helps me remember this prayer I made to stop swearing. AND I WILL! Fine me if you catch me swearing one day ok?

updates on my life...
Its been.... weeks since I updated my blog. I did not update my blog, because... first, time constraints. Secondly, I have been feeling down lately. My vulgarity potential soared for the past week, so did my temper. So any word that is thought out will be full of angst and morbidity. Hahah.
So... today, I am feeling much, much,much, much better. :D I have never felt any better. :)
Tuesday was my birthday. I thank everyone who gave me well wishes. Thank you all my friends! Which leads me to one thing... no man is an island. Without friends life is unimaginable.
Thank you!
Ahh... I realised, life has never been better for me. I received a birthday card on thursday from an old friend, and I started reflecting all the people in my life during my quiet time. I started reflecting about my life, friends, family... especially in recent years.. there are many things I did not realise how blessed I was. And laa dee daaa dee daa.. reflecting and reflecting.. about my spiritual walk, about the quality of my life, people around me.... overwhelming peace and joy flooded my being.
Somtimes people don't understand why some thank God for everything. Knowing God was the best thing that happened to me. He is as real and present in my life, its almost like surreal to have such a comforting presence surrround me, He embraces me. Its a little cheem, unbelivable that something that cannot be seen can make such an impact, its an experience like no other. What joy, what love... indescribable. No matter what happens, I turn to this solid rock for comfort, for strength and everything else..
And dadeedadeeda.. wished I could update more, but time is precious these days.. thats all for now..

To you O Lord I lift up my soul,
in you I trust, O my God,
Do not let me be put to shame,
nor let my enemies triumph over me,
No one whose hope is in you
will ever be put to shame,
but they will be put to shame
who are treacherous without excuse.
Show me your ways O Lord, teach me your paths,
guide me in your truth and teach me
for you are God my saviour
and my hope is in you all day long
Remember O Lord, your great mercy and love,
for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth
and my rebellious ways;
according to your love remember me,
for you are good, O Lord.
Good and upright is the Lord;
therefore He instructs sinners in His ways,
He guides the humble in what is right
and teaches them His ways.
All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful
for those who keep the demands of his covenant.
For the sake of your name O Lord,
Forgive my inquity, though it is great
Who then, is the man that fears the Lord?
He will instruct him in the way chosen for him.
He will spend his days in prosperity
and his descendants will inherit the land.
The Lord confides in those who fear Him;
He makes His covenant known to them.
My eyes are ever on the Lord,
for only He will release my feet from the share.
Turn to me and be gracious to me,
for I am lonely and afflicted.
The troubles of my heart have multiplied;
free me from my anguish.
Look upon my affliction and my distress
and take away all my sins.
See how my enemies have increased
and how fiercely they hate me!
Guard my life and rescue me;
let me not be put to shame,
for I take refuge in You
May intergrity and uprighteousness protect me,
because my hope is in You.
Redeem Israel O God from all their troubles!
~Psalm 25. ~
Haaa.... feels gooood after reading Psalms... Its rather comforting to me...

Maybe something is wrong with me lately. Mix stress and an irregular hormonal cycle, you get a potent PMS. GRRRrrrr..... I'm full of angst, and feeling hot and irritated all the time. Yee... so animal like... but its true... I can't help it la... IT SUCKS TO BE A WOMAN!!!! I HATE THAT TWO LITTLE SOAP-LIKE THINGS IN ME THAT RELEASES LITTLE JELLIES CALLED EGGS! They are useless to me!!!(for the time-being and many many years ahead) At least chicken eggs can be used to fry, bake cakes, and make good food. THOSE 'JELLIES' CAUSE ME TO HAVE PMS!!!!
I feel down.... I feel like the world is against me..nobody likes me...*sobs* ahhhhh I feel bloated. I have so many things to do and not done yet.... :( I feel I don't fit in anywhere in my various circles of friends.... I feel that I'm unfriendly and quiet. I feel I'm a procrastinator, I feel I'm a hypocrite, I feel that I'm a scatter-brain, blah blah blah......
Shucks. Shaddup Amy. Get a grip on your life. Control your PMS, not PMS control you!
