These few days have been mad. Rush here and there to get things done. And after all those traveling, I noticed that it's finally here. Tomorrow is 28th of January 2009 - means it's RBS registration. Yup!! I'll be leaving tomorrow. Looking forward to it or not? I've no idea. I'll be surrendering my phone upon arrival. And my phone will be kept until the last day of RBS. So, in order to save your money and sms, don't sms me. It's only a waste of money. Okay? Take care people and log on to my blog once in a while. For I've prepared some posts during my absence. =) I'll be in RBS till 5th of March and there's a visitation day on the 8th of February. So, see you!!!
*A "friend" called fever is visiting me now. So, do pray for me. Thanks

All work and no play may have made Jack a dull boy But all work and no God has left Jack with a lost soul But he's moving on full steam He's chasing the American dream And he's gonna give his family the finer things
Not this time son I've no time to waste Maybe tomorrow we'll have time to play And then he slips into His new B M W and drives farther and farther and farther away
So he works all day and tries to sleep at night He says things will get better better in time
Chorus: 'Cause he works and he builds with his own two hands and he pours all he has in a castle made with sand but the wind and the rain are 'comin crashing in time will tell just how long his kingdom stands his kingdom stands
His American dream is begining to seem More and more like a nightmare with every day passing "Daddy can you come to my game?" "Oh baby, please don't work late." Another wasted weekend And they are slipping away
[ Casting Crowns Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ] 'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night He tells them things will get better it'll take just a llittle more time
Chorus
He used to say, "Who ever dies with the most toys wins." But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end I'll take a shack on a rock Over a castle in the sand
Now he works all day and cries alone at night it's not getting any better looks like hes running out of time
'Cause he worked and he built with is own two hands And he put all he had in a castle made with sand but the wind and the rain are coming crashing in time will tell just how long his kingdom stands his kingdom stands
All they really wanted was you All they really wanted was you All they really wanted was you
An offended friend is harder to win back than a fortified city. Arguments separate friends like a gate locked with bars.
Proverbs 18:19
-random thoughts came-
TRUE FRIENDSHIP
There are "friends" who destroy each other, but a real friend sticks closer than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24
Many people today feel isolated from others. Ever feel that way? Being in a crowd might make you more aware of your isolation. Lovely people don't need to hear "have a nice day". They need friends who will stick close, listen, care and offer help when it is needed - in good and bad times. It is better to have one such friend than dozens of superficial acquaintances. Instead of wishing you could find a true friend, why not seek to become one yourself. There are people who need your friendship. Ask God to reveal them to you, and then tak on the challenge of being a true friend.
INNER BEAUTY
Loyalty makes a person attractive. It is better to be poor than dishonest.
Proverbs 19:22
Many people spend tons of money trying to improve the way they look outside. Unfortunately, they sometimes neglect their inner appearance. Inwardly, you can be as attractive as you want to be. You can have kindness, for example, in any amount you choose. Or, as this verse suggests, you can be loyal. You can control your most important asset: the attractiveness of your character.
I got a part time job as a promoter at Tesco Extra. I was given the job to promote contact lens. And it's so not easy. Standing there for hours to earn money is indeed a.. HARD thing to do. I know it's hard to earn money. And I'll treasure them. =) My legs are aching now. Gotta to get some rest. Imagine standing for 2 days and I could only sell 9 boxes. So, I'll just tell myself that the economy now is not good. That's why. Hehehe.. See you.
