Is Evolution a Fact?@8/30/2005 09:58:00 AM

Did you know....

The theory of evolution is not without its problems.

One scientist says this about life starting on its own:
"Amino acids would have to be arranged in an exact sequence to form a protein.. just like the letters in a sentence. Mere laws of chemistry and physics cannot do that. The probability of a protein forming by chance would be 10 to the power of 64 [10 with 64 zeros after it] to 1!"

Many people assume the theory of evolution to be true.

But can it be scientifically proven?
Something is considered scientifically true only if it can be repeated verified under lab conditions.

The claim that life sprang up on its own out of a long impersonal process cannot pass this test of truth.

This is why evolution remains only a theory.

Do you believe that God designed and created the universe and you?
The odds against even a simple protein creating itself are astronomical.

How much more reasonable to believe God and His word: "By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible" (Hebrews 11:3)

over the moon!@8/26/2005 12:51:00 PM

tonight i'll stay where the stars overlook the sky
peering through the window panes
i see the brightly twinkles of the night
pretty pretty, how they lit
the wonders of nature
the love of God's wonderful hand.

Yay. i'm so glad i'll get to see the stars from my bouncy bed. the beauty of it lies in just appreciating its wonder of how so tiny it seem to be, is mighty indeed in making the sky so bright. That people like me can walk around, and not be blinded in darkness even if i'm too lazy to switch on the lights.

i love my bed. my lime green bed. my super single bouncy lime green bed. Oh did i mention, i love my bed?

hahahaha. i brought my camera which i didn't manage to use it because i forgot about it. anyway, i had xiao long bao today! wheeee. thank you alecia for the wonderful meal. And oh! i have to say that i'm extremely good at daytona. whahaha. And zhi, one day, one fine day, cia & i would catch you by surprise and beat you flat 16-0 at the air hockey.

today's tuesday. T-u-e-s-d-a-y which means it's gelare time. and yes, how can i miss out on yummy maple syrup waffles with chocolate overload? thanks zhi!=)

did i mention, i have tiGgerific buddies? i think i just did.

i think i'm lazy. i can't get into the momentum of studying. Just knowing that exams are coming, and like i just had one paper just the other week, or maybe it's been already two weeks. hmmm. okay. i think i like to slack. oh well, who doesn't? August has been flying past really quickly, i still thought it was the 16 or something, until sel told me.. 9 more days till sept. I know it's just not me that thinks this way.. haha. cuz cass thought it was the begining of aug.

Shopping was tiggerific. i think i missed shopping. At least it takes my mind of work. So many things to do, so little time. And although i think i should get started in doing it, but i don't really feel like doing anything. But when i don't, I get worried and everything seems so much like a chore.

Some people say, when the holidays come, they get bored if they don't find something to do.. e.g work. But i don't. I think it's went i have so many things to do, i get bored.

oh wells. lemme see what i can look forward to.. shanghai.. hmmm. *grin*

You are sexy, powerful, and bold.
You're full of passion and energy...
Sometimes this passion has a dark side.

You feel most alive when you're seducing someone.
You never fail to get someone's attention.

shopping galore@8/22/2005 10:54:00 PM

Shopping! that's what a girl does best. oh well, i havent learnt the art of bargaining. But phew! i made alot of good buys today. whaha. Sel and I visited bugis village, and went on the YES! at suntec and to a shop with no name at tanjong pagar. Oh, did i mention we had great fun filled with exuberant laughter.. hahahaha.

Then, at eunos station, i made a friend while queuing up for the atm machine. PRUDENTIAL advisors were flooding the area. But good thing, it was someone nice, and i had time because i was in the queue. Funny how we had so many things in common like how we like the bak ku teh, i guess maybe i'm his first deal he closed for today? poor chap.

cellgrp was at eunice's. we had nice apples today. wheeeeee! i miss fruits. Oh, we are getting a friendship band for the whole cell, does the other shalom wanna join too? today was on the topid of being too distressed that you end up not knowing what to pray for.

Anyway, the point is, it was a great day. I just had hor fan for dinner. =)

@8/21/2005 05:02:00 PM

i never knew Cleaning up was reflective. As i start to pack my stuff, was then that i realize i had so many things in the cupboard which i never seem to remember. It's a glass cupboard which i open and close everyday la.

But as i took the trophy out one by one, i began to read off the plaque.. bbtc volleyball 2000 champion, and yada yada. Memories of what took place brought a smile to my face. I can't believe i could remember such minute details of the game, even tho i have a bad memory.

Each trophy that stands, reminded me of vigorous trainings like the dumex skipping championships that my team of 5 trained like crazy every afternoon, every pe lessons while our brains were fried with psle notes. Placing each on what seem like 'the next time i ever look at it would be a thousand years later'.

Then, as i reached out for the medals which seem to be the most common giveaways these days, my most cherish medal would be the 400m hurdles 3rd, i can't explain the emotions it fills me with. the exact emotions that i felt before the race, the tension, the excitement, the fear, the pain in my shin.
As i look at my legs now, i thank God that i never had to run that race again. haha. Till now, i still wonder how i did it. But yah, i knew that i wasn't running the race alone, it was God who was running with me. strength alone is nothing, strength in God is something. And with God all things are possible. So, i did it. haha. That medal sums up the whole 3 years that i was in track. The people i met, the difficulties i had, the red track..

But these are temporary, as the trophy turns from silver to black.. just like life on earth. so what to do? except to look at the things which are not temporal and chase after it. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Silver Lining.@8/18/2005 11:56:00 PM

Does being irritated = angry?
If so, how do you not be angry?

Actually, i think i disagree with that equation totally. Being irritated does not equal to being angry. However, being irritated can lead to being angry.

It's tough to stand tall. Even if the world's not watching, the inner me fighting its way to perfection is aching. Sometimes i wish i was stupid. No one will ever bother, then. When you know too much, everyone seems to be lurking around. When you know too little, the world doesn't exist. What lies in between, is probably what seems to be best is to know alot that seem too little to others.

i've a low thresh hold. i get irritated easily. what's new, i say to myself. I can't stand the fact of getting irritated, it hurts. If it doesn't, i guess i'll never grow.

No wounds, no pearls.

today's not exactly a good day.
i got lost in tpy.
i sprained my ankle.
i'm irritated.
but it's definately a miracle from God.

The silver lining by splitchick.

the wounds
get deeper
with each question that pricks
smilling faces reappearing with thorns
maybe the night will get better
but i bury myself in tears
what's new
i cant escape from it
i hide
eyes battling in fear
surrender till i find freedom in payne.

the wounds
it blocks
the happy thoughts
of which tomorrow might bring
but the thought of tomorrow
haunts great disgust
where the black cloud covers
i know i can't hide
whats new
surrender till i find freedom in payne

the wounds
disguise
the fear that surrounds
little perfectionist in making is aching
trying to smile with grim a dripping
God heals the soul
of which love transforms
whats new
me, the new born.

I don't fear what tomorrow might bring. But wadeva. I shall live and be joyful.

@8/17/2005 12:38:00 PM

Well.. all in a day work's for a big feast saturday.

ya ya. i'm a bit slow in updating. recently, work has piled up to a massive mountain that i can only see my head buried in textbooks and lecture notes. Finally, the day has come to hand in all that pile.

Imagine having an assignment due in 3 days which you have no idea where to start.
Nothing on that sheet of questions look familiar to you.
All your classmates are clueless.
The textbook spells horrendously weird with grammar errors exploding into your face.

Sounds exciting? hahaha. For a moment, i felt like screaming. Like i should have done something of my calibre, i should have listened to Ashley and took Asian Marketing. rawrs.
But since i'm here, I'd give my best shot, no matter how tough i can foresee it to be. Regrets in life? are only set out to be a word that i'll eventually hurdle over it in a split.

Like the phrase that Mrs Anne Leong kept going on and on during the 'o' levels. When the going get tough, the tough gets going. I guess if everything easy going, smooth flowing, i'll guess i'll be complacent and eventually not learn anything. But since it's kinda tough, i think i'm happy that i'm actually learning something new. Not that it's at a comfortable pace, but at least the tough gets going.

i'm a happy splitchick because I know i'm not running it alone.

Living Stones@8/16/2005 11:31:00 AM

Those who have the law of God written on their hearts love the Lord with all their mind, soul, and strength.

They demostrate this love to the world by showing honor to their parents,faithfulness in their marriage, and integrity in their work. They respect human life and treat men and women with diginity and honor. They are content with God and what He has given them, and they want nothing more.

Christians are not sinless, they just sin less for the Lord is the forgiveness of sins.

Stand tall fellow brothers & sisters, the world is watching.

i lost my phone today.
i left it in the ladies toilet at marina.

i ate carl's Jr for dinner.
the burger is huge.. the spice thingy that you get to add onto your burger rox totally. It's kinda messy to eat it 'take away'. think mos burger's lettuce burger. super messy with cheese all over you lips, sauces and spice dripping down but definately a gooooood feel for ya tastebuds.

But better exercise away all that .... that lies in the burger. hmmm.. or else you'll be fat fat fat.

Marina square lacks an ATM machine. gosh!

After the asumptous meal, headed to the cinema to catch willy wonka's charlie and the chocolate factory. Just then while i was finding for my phone to silence it, i realize it was sorta missing. I'm like kinda slow right. haha.

Oh wells. did i mention, God is good all the time? my darling phone is back with me. i love leslie la. Thank you leslie for being such a nice babe. She returned me back my phone. She even called lisie to tell her my phone was with her. super nice person.

i'm so glad, at least kind Singaporeans still exist. Not like some mad fella who practicaally glued her eyes at me along the walkways of wisma because i didn't hear her say excuse me. sicko woman!

Dear did the lazy zhi walk today. super funny, not on purpose but ya.. i think guys are lazy. haha. dear was a good boy who went to esplanade to get my phone back for me. wheeeeeeeee!

i'm a happy girl. i finally found a nice pair of heel cum covered shoe that fits my feet and it's extremely pretty &so is the erm..price. hmmm. i'm gonna purchase the shoe when the stock arrives.

i seriously did break a fork, not that you have to know the details. oh well, i broke it while trying to cut up the pan fried dory. it was left on the table till it was kinda soggy that's why i couldn't cut it up.

the truth hurts. it pains deeep. cut till it bleeds as tho my best friend died. i can't find anything awesome about having the filthy nicotine stick placed in between your innocent lips that blows out foul. the thought suk. having to see it makes it even worse. puke.

anyway, i learnt a new word today. hypochondria. a person who is preoccupied with their physical health and body. so are you a hypochondria? maybe those metrosexual are since they like their bodies to contain as many chocolate bars. hmmm?

oh. did i mention that God is bigger than the air i breathe? God will save the day. wheeeeeeeeeeee!

i broke a fork.@8/11/2005 11:51:00 AM

hmmm.. such a fulfilling day kept me smiling all night long.

woke up at 8ish and went back to sleeep till 11. rawrs. *pat back* good job on the beauty sleep.
did some reading up and i completed mostly what i wanted to do except for that gasp-signment 1 of BPA.

My wish currently is to top the class but with my sudden laziness of discipline of filling up my already pan-fried brain with even more neurotic terms. And to make it all worse, i'm an extremely slow reader. reading is such a chore ok. so if i do read ur endless bloggerful words, be honoured. that's why today is so fulfilling. i read up on the news, i read my textbook and i read 3 chapters of 'A love worth giving'. yay!

On top of that, I went East Coast to cycle with leslie boy! He jogged while i cycled. It was a challenge. He kept running into my lane. rawr. Some kuku group of guys started cheering for him and that interest him and he ended up moving not an inch forward. My adorable shitzu 'hen shou huan ying'. And if you are thinking why didn't i blade, is because i was waiting for you, tan ding ding.. haha.

oh. the new sauces at Mac is fantastic la. i tried the thai spice, it's spicy. The lemon thang is nice, i lurve it but it can't beat my all time favourite, curry sauce. heh. And the best part of the day is me risking 2 hours of travelling to pick dear up by surprise. hahaha. And yes, i found the place, i didn't lose my way. *wide grin*

Corrine May was on last evening. But i had to give it a missed. I went for doujiangyoutiao!!! eileen, quiying, let's go eat beef noodles and durian combo! wheeee! (=


Happy Anniversary Dearest!

did i mention i forgot to bring my camera so that wont be any photos for the gathering.. sillyme.

happy national day everyone. i reminise the time i performed with my classmates in primary school on national day. In fact, i think i can remember the steps pretty well. This is how the song goes..

You could take a little trip around Singapore town.
In a Singapore city bus.
You'll see colluay quay and raffles place
the esplanade and all of us.

It was great fun. I wished I had perform a few more times. In TP, there was CCN day which had just past..
oh well, i shall look forward to a brand new 40th year old Singapore.

And this is my new look for national day. wheeeeeeeee!

i saw chong and colin at suntec while walking to the carpark from marina.. the fireworks was nifty. And especially so with dear..

i'm totally edstatic. i can't wait to see everyone tomorrow at the gathering. wheeeeeeeeee!

it can't get any better than to meet up with friends of so long ago. to chill and have fun and do all the silly things we ever did like throwing stones in the reservoir, like making nonsensical jokes, like dressing funky in all greens, like dancing and singing and drinking till the cow burps.

And all of a sudden, everyone leaves for the separate callings. Somehow, numbers change.. houses shift.. some migrate.. married.. everything feels so different.

i never want that to happen. i hope friendship doesn't have an expiry date, or does it?

some friendships end with people looking different.. thru the awkardness both parties stare into their own space, not smiling to each other. people accusing one another of misunderstandings. Somehow, i wish all sad things would go away and let's all become friends again.. like nic.

oh.. farhan.. hahaha. i still owe u a race like i promise. I hope i remeber to bring along my camera and take lotza photo. wheeeeeee! i cant wait.

You're beautiful - James Blunt@8/05/2005 12:39:00 PM

My life is brilliant.
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.
Yeah, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw you face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

You're beautiful. you're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
And the truth is.
You stole my heart
And i'm still here with you.

p.s. it's still with you.

today's news critic presentation. I'm all ready for it. oh well, i seriously do not like the man, but i can't help thinking of how eeeek he is and that i have to face him later. God help me strip away all that thoughts and help me to be nice to the tutor. I mean seriously la, why teach me when you dunno anything and all you can say is that the answer is not from the textbook. If it was, then perhaps i should go memorise the textbook instead. Any idiot could do that. rawrs!

I can't wait to go perth. heh. I need to get a mini fridge to store my coke and tim tams. whee! i guess i will miss the doujiangyoutiao and bak ku teh. I probably won't miss the weather la until summer comes then i'll start to scramble back home. Gonna bid goodbye to my honda later.

on sat..jungle theme.flower leaf girls.fruits.monkeys.bubbles.the ushers. Such a wonderful and joyous occasion for my peers. Even though it poured heavily before the church ceremony.. i'm glad the rained stopped after a while. Dinner was great. I ate till i can't open my mouth anymore. And evelyn, adrain didn't smacked your butt la. haha. This wedding was an eye opener.. to see everyone dressing up in pretty dresses, makeup, nice suits.. tight pants.. haha. Steffy, serena.. send me photos please! Then, there's was jessica's birthday, loo's too and andrew! happy birthday!

sun.. rolled by with droopy eyes with eyelids that could hardly open. But i'm glad i did attend church. Hannah is someone nice. i learnt from it to always look on the bright side of life and always count your blessings. Why let other people like Peneninoh haunt you with nasty words that sene you weeping till you can't eat. Hannah grew from one who was always seeing how bad life was going for her to one who thank God for the bountiful blessing God had blessed her with.

Life can be boring at times, but at least there's hope. Studying can be such a chore but at least I have the opportunity to study. I'm thankful for the friends I have in Singapore.

welcome

As i sit here and think about all that You've done
About how You gave me Your One and only Son
And I'm trying to fathom all that You are, but so far,
Lord, You're so beyond me
And i fall down in reverence and i fall down in fear
And i'm asking You, Lord, won't You please draw near
Won't You open my eyes so that i can see
The way that You are working in me
chorus:
All i need is Your love
To come and fill this heart of mine
My heart is a desert that has gone dry
And i need Your love to carry me by

So i lay down my life and i put it before You
All i put all that i have in Your hands
And i'm not going to question, why You're so faithful
Why that You give me the blessing that You do
Let the glory be known, let the glory be shown
Lift You up unto the throne

By,by,by,by
To carry me by, by, by, by, by
To carry me by
