"ok guys, roll out!!"

"transformers~.. ~~ molest me you die~ "

the melodious phrase that my bro n I used to joke about when the cartoon is mentioned.

watched it this afternoon at its 1st day premier. really good, guys will love it to bits, the action scenes, special effects & sound are fresh & absolutely fantastic, and the movie has its share of humour too.

the movie trailer offers only this, so much more in da movie itself. heh..
definitely a must-watch! =)

A Woman's Conversation About a Haircut:


Oh! That's so cute!

Do you think so? I wasn't sure when she was gave me the mirror. I mean, you don't think it's too fluffy looking?

Oh no! No, it's perfect. I'd love to get my hair cut like that, but I think my face is too wide. I'm pretty much stuck with this stuff I think.

Are you serious? I think your face is adorable. And you could easily get one of those layer cuts that would look so cute I think. I was actually going to do that except that I was afraid it would accent my long neck.

Oh, that's funny! I would love to have your neck! Anything to take attention away from this two-by-four I have for a shoulder line.

Are you kidding? I know girls that would love to have your shoulders. Everything drapes so well on you. I mean, look at my arms. See how short they are? If I had your shoulders I could get clothes to fit me so much easier.

Man

Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.
- Albert Einstein


Oh I say the measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand
How wealthy or intelligent you are
'Cause I found out the measure of a man
God knows and understand
For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
The measure of a man

4HIM – “Measure of a Man”

silent wave

what a long week, vacation in genting, preparation for the "firsts": first christian band performance in jusco, my personal first drum workshop in another church..


just came back from danga bay yamaha (monday night), two new students, learned fast, happy. they happy me happy.
life sure passed so fast after my exams, it's a busy schedule and lately it's starting to slow down (yay heh). to catch more sleep, clear the black eye rings, see some sunsets, write some stuffs..




i wonder if i have two personalities, mainly one in normal life and another one in teaching drums.
i see myself walking around chatting non-stop loud n cheerfully during last night's drum seminar, being open and bright n cheery with the young kids, make them laugh n adore me. speaking in a higher, clearer voice. do cute stuffs and draw the attention of my listeners. being the person that i wished to be.

the dream me.


and when the drum seminar ends, they helped me put back the drum set, went home. and i stayed back to clean the white board with alcohol-soaked toilet paper, slowly; under the yellow-orange glow stage spotlight, with my favourite sentimental soundtrack playing in the background. while the pretty drum student (a few yrs younger than me) waits for me to clear up the place so that she can lock the church doors.

i thanked her and reminded her to revise the drum materials learned on that day, and left. went to the faithful motorcycle, loaded in heavy stuffs, and rode back home, in 30 minutes of sad road lights & drizzle.

leaving behind a fake dream that once is all of me.



thinking back at that time, what happened a few hours ago in the afternoon, in jusco. the hype & exhaustion, the lesson of trust & humility in Christ. the beauty of unity, and the wonderful personalities. i told God that i'm amazed at his planning and uniqueness, smiling in my heart seeing the people, church people, being the way they are, always will be.



and i see myself walking out of doubt, confusion.. more into confidence and purpose, dropping the depressed knife, holding jagged heart nearer to the old cross.


And welcoming July.

Unsearchable

therein lies heart above 1st floor. black and white strips in front and behind but never ahead time. obvious in the hidden myriad reflection of face. says thought in million ways if. still there not found. not if given sound, if not voice, concealed but release. please.

mindless selahs, mindful.
explain itself is dark on next happened. caught on like prey, web not, not even fret, it's set.
tones twinkling, rings little bell, once but long. no end.
many will or already heard, but not next long, not the no end.
no..


sitting side takes residence in melancholy.
where is unsearchable where, asks once able. once, and now once thought able.
a lost. unknown. wet drop. drops.
forever is down to trails, blown by seasonal winds.

tell me i see nothing, when emotions come clear, distinct from everyday heavies.
i only see leaves, and hear silence by seasonal winds.

May is gone, and so are, heartwords.

What's Your Self-Esteem Score?

"wow, that's very low..."




Confidence is the trait that makes people feel self-assured and certain that they have what it takes to be successful. You have low confidence. As a result, you may frequently feel insecure or overwhelmed by stress. You may also feel agitated or emotionally upset more often than other people do. When unsettling events happen, above all, try to manage your emotional extremes and maintain perspective. Remember that you can choose to look on the bright side of any situation that presents itself. In this report, Tickle's team of researchers has included many strategies to help you snap yourself out of negative cycles of self-doubt. By taking some time to develop your confidence, you can experience a noticeable improvement in your quality of life.

Because you lack confidence right now, you're probably not enjoying as rewarding a life as you might like. When you're feeling dissatisfied, you may find yourself making judgments about people you don't even know or feeling jealous of others' achievements. While these behaviors may seem to bolster your self-esteem in the short term, they are actually draining your self-confidence. This is true because people's ability to be open and accepting of others stems from their own high acceptance of themselves. The phrase, "To love others, first you have to love yourself," may come to mind.

To get on the road to self-love — or at least self-acceptance — try not to engage in self-blaming behaviors when things go badly. Instead, at times when you feel vulnerable or insecure, be gentle with yourself. Try to cut yourself some slack when feelings of guilt or shame arise. Once you've begun to fully accept yourself as human and flawed, it becomes possible to extend this same kindness and understanding to those around you. For confidence to thrive, you need to feed it with love and acceptance of all of your positive and negative attributes, as well as your mistakes and successes. Strive to avoid being a fair-weather friend to yourself.

Once you achieve it, high confidence can be an energetic force that propels you to succeed in reaching your personal goals. It can also help you to make significant contributions to those around you, including your family, friends, and community. All in all, positive feelings about yourself can go a long way toward giving you a true sense of inner peace and happiness.





Victor, your most unique quality is that you are

intense




You're wound up and have a lot going on. Others may have trouble understanding what you're going through, but they generally find your intensity very compelling and are drawn to you. This happens even without effort on your part. Compared to others who are also intense, you are unusually uninterested in being the center of attention. Only 0.8% of all test takers have this unique combination of personality strengths.
