Social Media

So I'm currently on a fast from social media this week. 2nd day into it and I'm already feeling abit out of place. I find it funny how the absence of oneself from this social media platforms can make you feel so incompetent socially in reality. Weird but true.

It has become a habit to tap on the apps in my phone whenever I see a notification pop up, or a number on the screen cap. Also, the urge to 'share with the world' one's happenings or thoughts. So tempted to post an edited picture or tweet a random thought.

It's crazy the way I see it. This was how addicted I was to social media.
A bit like a fish out of water is what I feel currently.

But I will survive!

What I need to do now is to make use of my time to complete that psych assignment. Don't know why I'm procrastinating so much.
Oh and I need to stop returning to my old reminiscing ways. It's killing me.

First Love

When I think about the topic mentioned above, all the bittersweet feelings and memories flood back. Well, people usually get all mushy talking about this, whether or not the outcome was good. I mean, isn't it something learning to love another person for the first time, someone who isn't blood-related? Someone who could be a complete stranger, as far as blood lines go?  For some incomprehensible reason, I just felt like writing about this. Probably because I never really addressed this matter personally in black and white. Maybe for most people, their first love came in the form of a girlfriend or boyfriend. Well, mine came in the form of a best friend. Yes, my first love could be all the more memorable. Memorable, I would say in the way that it taught me painful lessons. Painful but meaningful lessons. I guess I have said this many times, but  love is really loving the person even if he/she doesn't love you the same way .  Which basically goes to say, that lo

i sing praises to your name

i just really wanna thank God for speaking to me and assuring me in some stuffs. He has really been a great comfort during these few days, as well as during my trip. well, wanna know more, you can always ask me in person. and i don't know about you guys, but reading back through old entries in my spriritual journal can be a great source of ideas, wisdom, and reminders to me. haha, i might've not really pay attention to what i was journalling at that time, (well, cause sometimes when you do devotion, you can be really tired and unfocused kan), but when reading them back, they really do make sense! ;) some of the unusual ways God works. anyway, here is a passage in the Bible which was like right on point for me. *pause* suddenly thought of this wonderful song, God is the Strength of My Heart . it's a great song.=) ok continue XD. taken from Isaiah 51. vs 14-16 "The cowering prisoners will soon be set free; for they will not die in their dungeon, nor will they lack brea

He's Not The One 2

^ The title above refers to a poem with the same title that I wrote back in high school. After church camp, my mind was opened a little to the notion that maybe, just maybe, he isn't the right one. I guess the past two years, I have been so caught up with my feelings in this un-burstable bubble that I could not view the whole situation in a more sensible fashion. Indeed, I was waiting for the time that I could step back and look at my problem from the outside. Camp was my chance. I was far from my source of misery, closer to other people  in general. The chance I got to meet some other friends in the past weeks has also helped me a lot and I'm so very thankful to the Lord for sending all these marvellous people. I got to look at my situation from a totally different point of view. They might not know it, but talking to the two awesome Js was quite a big help and release. And then there was my Kor and my favourite siblings . Haha, that's why currently I'm an advo
