So that we can come before our God and actually walk with him, yeah..wow factor..have a relationship with the Almighty Great and awesome creator, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. He died for us, He paid the wages for our sins. And the wages is death. You really want to know why God did that? Because He loves us so much. Even that puzzles me sometimes, why we unworthy creatures would be so blessed with such deep, uncomprehensive love from the Father. But did u know that at the beginning of the world God made man to be rulers to have dominion over the whole earth under the authority of God Himself? Whoa factor again. But choice. man made a choice to seek his own selfish desires, that first man, Adam, sinned by eating the fruit of the ONE tree God told Him not to. you see the way Satan deceives is this, he entices and lures weaving threads of lie upon lie to create a whole web of deceit of reasons to sin .. and in the end its all for NOTHING. just like bedazzled, u know that movie? its all for nothing people. NOTHING. look at the disasterous error made by one man that led to that fall of all mankind from adam afterwards? But God loves us so much that so that while we were still sinners, unworthy, He sent His son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins. That's how much He loves us..&lt;br /&gt;SO that's what i want you all to know. That God loves you.&lt;br /&gt;His love is deeper than the deepest ocean&lt;br /&gt;wider than the widest ocean&lt;br /&gt;And there is nothing in this world that can ever change His love&lt;br /&gt;.....amazing. His love truly remains for all generations. That is why today even I am reached by his outstretched arm of wonderful and glorious love. That's the choice you have to make too you know...to reject or accept God's love for you and in so doing accept Jesus as Lord and Saviour of your life. This indeed is a matter of life or death. Its one decision you have to make, just make sure you make the right one. the consequences of rejecting the saviour is eternal seperation from the God of love, hell.&lt;br /&gt;I LOVE YOU LORD! THANK YOU FOR THE CROSS THE MIGHTY CROSS!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111823991952554044?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/111823991952554044/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=111823991952554044' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111823991952554044'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111823991952554044'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/06/hey-stranger-theres-something-i-want-u.html' title='HEY STRANGER, THERE&apos;S SOMETHING I WANT U TO KNOW'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111824043408929024</id><published>2005-06-02T02:19:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2005-06-09T00:21:50.176+10:00</updated><title type='text'>worship him</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;Worship Him who made the heavens&lt;br /&gt;Worship Him who stretched the heavens up on high&lt;br /&gt;Worship Him who made the whole earth&lt;br /&gt;in seven days&lt;br /&gt;Took a rest and named it Sabbath Day&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes i look up in the sky&lt;br /&gt;and i see the birds flying by&lt;br /&gt;then i become glad&lt;br /&gt;because i know&lt;br /&gt;He who made them&lt;br /&gt;He is the author of life&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beautiful&lt;br /&gt;my soul sings&lt;br /&gt;Beautiful &lt;br /&gt;my soul sings&lt;br /&gt;beautiful beautiful&lt;br /&gt;sweet Lord Jesus&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I lay my life on the altar&lt;br /&gt;my heart is set on walking with you&lt;br /&gt;that all on earth can see&lt;br /&gt;It is you who lives in me&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111824043408929024?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/111824043408929024/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=111824043408929024' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111824043408929024'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111824043408929024'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/06/worship-him.html' title='worship him'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111691910964407720</id><published>2005-05-24T16:37:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2005-05-24T17:18:29.656+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Turn the page.</title><content type='html'>Luke16:15&lt;br /&gt;"What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you heard the story of the Rich man and Lazarus?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;THE RICH MAN AND LAZARUS&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogscame and licked his sores.&lt;br /&gt;The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham's side( Abraham is the father of all nations to whom God promised him his descendants would be numerous)The rich man also died and was buried. In hell, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far awar, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him,&lt;br /&gt;'Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.'&lt;br /&gt;But Abraham replied, 'Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.'&lt;br /&gt;He answered, ' Then i beg you, father, send Lazarus to my father's house, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment. &lt;br /&gt;Abraham replied, "They have Moses and the Prophets, let them listen to them"&lt;br /&gt;"No, father Abraham," he said, but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent."&lt;br /&gt;He said to him, "if they do not listen to Moses(think &lt;em&gt;Prince of Egypt&lt;/em&gt;) and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111691910964407720?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111691910964407720'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111691910964407720'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/05/turn-page.html' title='Turn the page.'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111563981023444838</id><published>2005-05-09T21:42:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2005-05-09T21:56:50.360+10:00</updated><title type='text'>dancing along with life, storing treasures for eternity while i can</title><content type='html'>hear thee roar&lt;br /&gt;hear me roar&lt;br /&gt;the lion of judah stands knocking on your door.&lt;br /&gt;deep oceans of love pouring forth from jars of clay&lt;br /&gt;The saviour came from heaven to earth&lt;br /&gt;died on the tree&lt;br /&gt;for you me&lt;br /&gt;him and her, &lt;br /&gt;He died to take away our sins, wash us clean&lt;br /&gt;so that we may stand rigteous before Him who made us all&lt;br /&gt;The Lord God, the Almighty&lt;br /&gt;That is His name, the I AM&lt;br /&gt;crucified, He took our sins&lt;br /&gt;He nailed our brokeness pain and death&lt;br /&gt;to the wooden tree.&lt;br /&gt;generations through generations,&lt;br /&gt;His mercy, grace, love, and salvation remains.&lt;br /&gt;how awesome is that&lt;br /&gt;let us magnify His name!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Life.&lt;br /&gt;So many others,&lt;br /&gt;people across nations tribes&lt;br /&gt;and different languages&lt;br /&gt;have made entries, each on their own&lt;br /&gt;about this mysterious gift.&lt;br /&gt;scribbling notes or painting pictures&lt;br /&gt;in dot points, paper journals &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from the moment we start breathing&lt;br /&gt;God sees us.&lt;br /&gt;from that moment on,&lt;br /&gt;we propel through time&lt;br /&gt;through flashes of seconds rushing by&lt;br /&gt;with minutes blinking foward towards&lt;br /&gt;day after day &lt;br /&gt;that led on to month upon month&lt;br /&gt;that painted sceneries of our years of our lives&lt;br /&gt;in our picture book&lt;br /&gt;of memories, thoughts.&lt;br /&gt;life,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;im sure you have your own sketches of &lt;br /&gt;what you think life is&lt;br /&gt;or maybe you're sitting clueless&lt;br /&gt;still wavering &lt;br /&gt;not giving a damn.&lt;br /&gt;yet.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"You don’t think about dying when you are just starting to live..And yet in the midst of all of this grief, despair and pain, there is the power of hope. I did not understand hope until that moment. Hope of the resurrection became more than just a spiritual concept; it became something I longed for. I have the hope that indeed he and I and everyone who will die in Christ will rise in Him as well. This is the hope that I live with now, even though I don’t understand it. I am made for eternity, not as a liquid spirit but as a solid, beautiful creation of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is also the hope that even today Jesus is the resurrection and the life. He is resurrecting in me the areas that died that day. He has promised to be life to me as I believe in Him. Though I still don’t understand what death will be like, I can’t say that I fear death as an enemy. It is now toothless and under submission to Christ. It has lost all victory over me. Every moment as I walk toward it, I see it shrinking back in fear. Death does not fear me but fears what Christ shall do in me as I pass from life to death to life again.&lt;br /&gt;."&lt;/strong&gt; curteousy of relevant magazine. www.relevantmagazine.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some qoutable qoutes from the very manual of God's instructions for life.

Teach us to number our days aright&lt;br /&gt;that we may gain a heart of wisdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in psalm 89:47-48, David cries&lt;br /&gt;"Remember how fleeting is my life, for what futility you have created all men! What men can live and not see death or save himself from the power of the grave?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Isiah 40:6 we understand that&lt;br /&gt;" All men are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field."&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Then in Job 21:16 it is mentioned&lt;br /&gt;"But their(the wealthy and rich and famous) prosperity is not in their own hands"&lt;br /&gt;Job22:17&amp;18&lt;br /&gt;"They said to God 'leave us alone! What can the Almighty do to us?' YET IT WAS HE who filled their houses with good things, so i stand aloof from the counsel of the wicked."&lt;br /&gt;Job 24:19&lt;br /&gt;"As heat and drought snatch away the melted snow,&lt;br /&gt;so the grave snatches away those who have sinned."&lt;br /&gt;Job 24:22 &lt;br /&gt;"But God drags away the mighty by His power, though they become established, they have no assurance of life. He may let them rest in a feeling of security, but His eyes are on their ways, for a little while they are exalted (think huge/major rulers of nike, starbucks, trump with the dopey hair do heeehs etc.)and then they are gone, they are brought low and gathered up like all others, they are cut off like heads of grain."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout Ecclesiastes, the author drones on about the meaningless of life,.. dont we all sometimes? well thank God Jesus fills this void halleluiah..&lt;br /&gt;In Ecclesiastes 11:9-10&lt;br /&gt;"Be happy, young man, while you are young, and let your heart give you joy in the days of your youth. Follow the ways of your heart and whatever your eyes see, but know that for these things God will bring you to judgement. So then, banish anxiety from your heart and cast off the troubles of your body, for youth and vigour are meaningless."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In wrapping up, the conclusion of the wise writer from Ecclesiastes leaves us with..&lt;br /&gt;this passage from Ecclesiastes 12:13-14&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS, FOR THIS IS THE WHOLE DUTY OF MAN. FOR GOD WILL BRING EVERY DEED INTO JUDGEMENT, INCLUDING EVERY HIDDEN THING, WHETHER GOOD OR EVIL."&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;by the way, Jesus provides an abudance of life. if only we would believe and receive. How great is love is. It is uncomprehensible. i mean just imagine, &lt;strong&gt;God &lt;/strong&gt;came to earth and lived as &lt;strong&gt;one of us &lt;/strong&gt;. amazing or wad? that happened 2000 years ago. &lt;br /&gt;'For God so loved the world that He gave His only son, Jesus to die on the cross for our sins so that whoever believes shall not die but have eternal life' John 3verse16&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;IMG alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v288/mondayschildak/v_hp_bees.jpg"&gt;&lt;FONT color=#ccccff&gt;the world's notion of glory and glamour. is as nothing before God.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"for your thoughts are not my thoughts&lt;br /&gt;and my ways are not my ways &lt;br /&gt;says the Lord"&lt;br /&gt;This verse goes something like that.&lt;br /&gt;read this for a refreshing truth&lt;br /&gt;Isiah 40:6 proclaims&lt;br /&gt;"before Him all the nations are as nothing, they are regarded by Him as worthless and less than nothing."&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111564217292143125?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/111564217292143125/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=111564217292143125' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111564217292143125'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111564217292143125'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/05/how-do-you-put-life-in-few-words.html' title='How do you put life in a few words'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111465871750255821</id><published>2005-04-28T13:00:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2008-01-11T13:11:07.553+11:00</updated><title type='text'>retarded nothings and stupid superflies</title><content type='html'>&lt;BR&gt;&lt;IMG style="WIDTH: 458px; HEIGHT: 268px" height=279 alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v288/mondayschildak/2005_Image.jpg" width=450&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Temptation is like this&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;its like the whole world&lt;br /&gt;closes in on you, suddenly.&lt;br /&gt;Envelopes and entwines its twining vines&lt;br /&gt;wraps itself, enclosing you in a vacuum of space and time,&lt;br /&gt;between the crucial moment of&lt;br /&gt;falling, giving in to the sweet red apple of lusty desire.&lt;br /&gt;Or to retreat.&lt;br /&gt;Hold back for more than a few&lt;br /&gt;seconds and watch this caving thrust slowly melt away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes temptation cant even be felt&lt;br /&gt;Its not so close to your pores,&lt;br /&gt;hovering/lingering just before it attacks&lt;br /&gt;before you can reach for it.&lt;br /&gt;Because you cant grasp it before it sinks in&lt;br /&gt;its too late for that&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes Temptation comes that quick&lt;br /&gt;it's a reflex&lt;br /&gt;it's habitual&lt;br /&gt;it cant be stopped.&lt;br /&gt;Because when it hits you&lt;br /&gt;That's when you get it&lt;br /&gt;That's when the red bulb in your heart beeps red.&lt;br /&gt;Sin Alert!

What's even harder is committing yourself to &lt;em&gt;be&lt;/em&gt; obedient unto the Lord. But before one even reaches the point of wanting to be obedient..to serve..often  there is the struggle just believing the word of God. &lt;strong&gt;Sometimes a faint glimmer of doubt whispers in the back of our minds, wondering..&lt;em&gt;just &lt;/em&gt;wondering perhaps the extent of the truth of the existence of the Lord Almighty.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the word of God&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Matthew16:16&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, &lt;br /&gt;the son of the living God."&lt;br /&gt;Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah. &lt;br /&gt;For this was not revealed to you by man,&lt;br /&gt;but by my Father in heaven. And&lt;br /&gt;I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my &lt;br /&gt;church,&lt;br /&gt;and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. &lt;br /&gt;I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven&lt;br /&gt;whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven and whatever you loose on earth&lt;br /&gt;will be loosed in heaven"&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://mondayschilddebuts.blogspot.com"&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;IMG style="WIDTH: 316px; HEIGHT: 494px" height=541 alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v288/mondayschildak/one-to-go-online.gif" width=355&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay, so the topic that i'll cover today is &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Belief in God&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The material(text/script) are gathered from various random sources, but most of it are from (Anderson&amp;Park, Stomping out the Darkness)&lt;br /&gt;Alright, here we go..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We dont serve God to gain His &lt;br /&gt;Acceptnace;&lt;br /&gt;We are accepted so we serve God.&lt;br /&gt;We dont follow Him in order to be loved;&lt;br /&gt;we are loved, so we follow Him. &lt;br /&gt;That is why we are called to live by&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;FAITH&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which brings me back to a memory of my days in primary school, when i was much younger. There was a good friend of mine who confused me, and challenged me with the words she said that day, "Not having Faith in God is a sin."&lt;br /&gt;AND indeed, confused me she had. For today, i am still unsure if it is classified as a sin. But one thing i do know today is that, as adapted from the Word of God itself,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;"WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE HIM, &lt;br /&gt;FOR HE WHO COMES TO GOD MUST BELIEVE THAT HE IS,&lt;br /&gt;AND THAT HE IS A REWARDER OF THOSE WHO SEEK HIM"&lt;br /&gt;Hebrews 11:6&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear friends, whether you like it or not, faith is central to everything we do as christians. How did we reveive Christ? By faith. How then are we to walk in Him? By faith. (colossians 2:6)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'It's the dark, difficult times of testing in our lives that bring us to the place where we learn to totally rely on God' (Anderson&amp;Park, pg121)&lt;br /&gt;When we struggle, we learn to depend on God alone to meet our needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Faith is God's way to live. &lt;br /&gt;Trying to think and reason without God is man's way to live.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more time and energy you spend &lt;br /&gt;thinking about your own plans on how&lt;br /&gt;to live your life,&lt;br /&gt;the less&lt;br /&gt;time and energy you have to seek God's plan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't rely on feelings.!&lt;br /&gt;and that on i can surely tell you from experience.&lt;br /&gt;I stood at altar call in camp back when i was 13, waiting to feel something from the Lord as i had some previous months behind then. You'll just be waiting forever!&lt;br /&gt;feelings...sigh..wont it be good to always &lt;em&gt;FEEL&lt;/em&gt; like the Lord's hand is upon your life. that He is leading you through. But the truth is, the Lord's hand &lt;em&gt;IS&lt;/em&gt; upon your life, He &lt;em&gt;IS&lt;/em&gt; in fact leading you through. Feel like it or not. even in the darkest moments of your life. or even when your relationship with God sucks, is rough and down, even when you feel mad at God. Even when things arent going good or right or as you like. Even when you dont know much about God, or even feel you dont love or want to know Him much at all. Listen. We are forever in God's hands. And IN GOD'S TIME, He will draw us near to Him, IN HIS TIME, my friends, IN GOD'S TIME. ...&lt;br /&gt;In His Time, you'll come to thirst for the true and living God&lt;br /&gt;In His Time, you'll walk the closer walk&lt;br /&gt;In His Time, you'll understand more and more of His word&lt;br /&gt;In His Time, He'll teach you and instruct you more and more, each day&lt;br /&gt;In His Time, He'll heal your broken hearts and guide you to straight paths&lt;br /&gt;In HIs Time.... so many things can happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and intersecting this is CHOICE, the choices of life that will determine where we end up on life's road map. God's BEST, or God's &lt;em&gt;second&lt;/em&gt;...&lt;em&gt;or third...or fourth......or...best  &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alright now, back to the feeling syndrome i was talking about... well, adapted from the Neil Anderson &amp;Park authors/writers,&lt;br /&gt;'Our feelings always react to what we think is true and choose to believe, &lt;br /&gt;whether it's the truth or not.&lt;br /&gt;The order of the scripture is to know the truth, &lt;br /&gt;BELIEVE IT,&lt;br /&gt;WALK ACCORDING TO IT(which i am, and am sure so many others are currently struggling with..:p)&lt;br /&gt;AND..let our emotions be a result of our obedience.&lt;br /&gt;When you believe what you feel instead of the truth, your walk will be as inconsistent as your feelings. But when you believe and act on the truth, your feelings will reflect reality!&lt;br /&gt;I wish i could have that particular passage scripture which precisely demonstrates this statement. unfortunately, you'll just have to deal with the later-which is, from John 13:17: "If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think about it, alright? see you guys soon.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111408719436458603?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111408719436458603'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111408719436458603'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/04/wavering-belief-in-god.html' title='wavering belief in God'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111327831068539980</id><published>2005-04-12T13:54:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2005-04-12T13:58:30.686+10:00</updated><title type='text'>Before the world began...you were on His mind</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Before the world began&lt;br /&gt;u were on His(GOD's) mind&lt;br /&gt;Every tear you cry is precious in His eyes&lt;br /&gt;Because of His great love&lt;br /&gt;He gave His only son(JESUS)&lt;br /&gt;Everything was done&lt;br /&gt;so you would come&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Come to the Father though &lt;br /&gt;your gift is small&lt;br /&gt;Broken hearts,&lt;br /&gt;broken lives&lt;br /&gt;He will take them all&lt;br /&gt;BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE&lt;br /&gt;EVERYTHING WAS DONE SO YOU WOULD COME.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For God so loved the world that He gave His only son,&lt;br /&gt;so that whoever believes shall not perish(die) but  have eternal life&lt;br /&gt;John 3:16&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-111327831068539980?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/111327831068539980/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=111327831068539980' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111327831068539980'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/111327831068539980'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2005/04/before-world-beganyou-were-on-his-mind.html' title='Before the world began...you were on His mind'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-111054578423850623</id><published>2005-03-11T23:47:00.000+11:00</published><updated>2005-03-12T00:49:53.193+11:00</updated><title type='text'>PRUNED BY THE FATHER</title><content type='html'>&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/tissueboxispurple/200142890-001_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;this article has been soulfully gathered from www.relevantmagazine.com&lt;br /&gt;i thought its good and &lt;em&gt;relevant&lt;/em&gt; to the topic i posted one blog earlier. do read. &lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I should know better than to question my father. His perspective always seems to be a lot better than my own. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My father has a “green thumb,” a definite knack for anything that can grow in one’s yard.

I knew that if I inquired more about the plants he tended to and even offered to help, it would be the key to spending some good quality time together. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I suspected, my dad lit up at the chance to show me a few pointers and said, “You can help me prune the fruit trees.” So, with large knife in hand, I followed him out to the orchard. His first instruction was for me to simply observe, as he would show me how to properly prune the tree. Within just a few minutes, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;what was once a healthy looking tree full of the first signs of spring was now devoid of any life. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many branches had been completely torn or broken, now lying on the ground to be collected and burned.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One by one, the trees were devastated, my father leaving them in his wake. Finally I decided to speak up, perhaps in defense of the next tree.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;strong&gt;“Dad,” I started. “Do you even know what you’re doing? These trees look horrible.” &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will never forget what he said next. And my dad will never know the depths to which he was really speaking. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“To correctly prune the trees, you have to cut off what seems to be good now,” he answered. “This is not the best season.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt; If I don’t cut these branches off now, the tree will be too full when the fruit should be the best. In fact, the branches will be too heavy and will break themselves. If I simply allow the tree to grow now as it naturally would, I will never get the ripest fruit from the tree when the timing and season is right.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My father thought he was speaking of things in the physical realm, but my mind and spirit held on tightly to the spiritual analogy he was also speaking of. I let my dad finish, and then I quietly slunk back to my car and cried like I hadn’t cried in a long time. Why? Because I knew I was guilty.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is completely indicative of my own life. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What seems to be something that is OK or even good, God seems to cut away, and I am left wounded in the wake of my heavenly Father. And since I don’t have His perspective, I always wonder if He knows what He is doing with me. Sometimes I even get angry and believe He is just out to hurt me. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;But God always knows what He is doing. And He knows the ripest fruit only comes in the perfect season. Sometimes the things that seem good need to be pruned to make room for the things that are best. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;“There has never been the slightest doubt in my mind that the God who started this great work in you would keep at it and bring it to a flourishing finish on the very day Christ Jesus appears.” –Philippians 1:6 (The Message)&lt;/em&gt;[Matt Conner is a church planter with the Christian &amp; Missionary Alliance and is the pastor of The Mercy House in Anderson, Ind.] &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[Stories on RELEVANTmagazine.com are user-submitted.

It's glad to announce that its shirts- Love Threads, in both colours ( Baby light blue and White Ash), will be &lt;strong&gt;stocked at I_INC, FAR EAST PLAZA,#03-70B, Singapore&lt;/strong&gt;, starting Monday, Feb 14th. hitting the store on valentine's day itself. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;So don't miss out on the craze that is a newly formed phantom waiting to errupt. Quick, get your hands on a shirt by Monday's Child via the online store, before the 20th of Feb because price changes are about to be made after then. And sad to say, the exclusive T shirts will then have to be purchased at a much higher price.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/splendidme04/829931-003bigversion_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;MONDAY'S CHILD PROCLAIMS IT &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;LOUD&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;em&gt;and.....no..not proud..&lt;/em&gt;but &lt;strong&gt;EVEN LOUDER!! &lt;/strong&gt;that its &lt;strong&gt;CHIC TEES&lt;/strong&gt;will be something anyone can relate to, whether close to heart or something general. It will provoke one’s senses and wear the shirts not only for the fashionable statement but an alluring sense of charm that has found its way through meaning. &lt;strong&gt;It’s like a little secret between the owner of the T shirt and the shirt itself.&lt;/strong&gt; Everyone passes them by quickly on the street, hardly ever stopping to look and read the words on the shirt (because they are too tiny). Likewise, the same goes for ordinary people on the street. Hardly anyone takes the time to turn strangers into friends, and so in doing, fail to see their perspectives, their thoughts, their character, their meaning. Monday’s Child’s designs always have something that is immediately seen from afar. But it also has that little extra something that connotes the deeper side of it; the meaning and the thoughts inspired by those words and graphics. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s exactly like the strangers on the street, visible, yet we don’t see what’s inside of them, we don’t see their inner beauty. We only see what’s on the surface; the exterior.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; So, Monday’s Child’s T shirts are very special in the aspect that it is held close to heart and its beauty of meaningful designs are shared with close friends or families who take the time to stop and stare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

lazy tuesday night in &lt;br /&gt;when nothing else's on&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;mischa barton. im not too sure whats up with this girl&lt;br /&gt;sure, shes kind of pretty i guess&lt;br /&gt;but thing is, i dont think she can act well&lt;br /&gt;at least not for the o.c&lt;br /&gt;since day one she strikes me&lt;br /&gt;as an unsure, fragile character&lt;br /&gt;wait a minute.&lt;br /&gt;did her role on o.c&lt;br /&gt;really meant for her to be that way&lt;br /&gt;dammnit man shes so like..&lt;em&gt;limbek limbek &lt;/em&gt; &lt;br /&gt;i watched this eccentric show the other day'&lt;br /&gt;-lost and delirious &lt;2001canadian film&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and pipa perabo starred as this possessive lesbo &lt;br /&gt;mischa barton as this sad, passive depressive character&lt;br /&gt;with a look of melancholy so immense&lt;br /&gt;it finally clicks in my head why she acts&lt;br /&gt;that way in the oc!&lt;br /&gt;hhaa!mystery solved&lt;br /&gt;so do i think shes a good actress&lt;br /&gt;well yeah, only for poignant roles such as sixth sense or whatever.&lt;br /&gt;i must say i was pretty impressed with the way pipa perabo played her character&lt;br /&gt;considering the humongous constrasting roles between that flick and the one she played in &lt;strong&gt;coyote ugly&lt;/strong&gt;. big diff. and she pulls both off darn well.&lt;br /&gt;i am impressed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now on to adam brody (seth cohen). ahhh*dreamy sigh. hes so cute. plus his character in the oc is darn funny as well. i mean take a good look at him. the guy's adorable/.shites. sis wants to take over the net now. so i have to stop raving and ranting about him now.back later.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

of humankind’s brain. If u do biology or science, intrigue of our senses never fails to press truly deeper after each day’s worth of study. Sadly, I do not do either of these subjects, for God made some interested in science, some in literature, some in business, some in education, some in the practices of law, some in medicine, some in sports and the list can, without a speck of doubt, go on n on. Look around you, look at the world on a giant billboard or huge poster, could you? What is it filled with. Look again. Think harder, dig deeper. It’s not just about this year, it doesn’t just canvas the present time or century we live in. it’s not just the place or the country or the space you live in, or were born in. existence is not just whatever passes you by. Either through the media or voices from each other. Think. Go on, probe deeper. Why of all centuries were you placed in this? Of all years, you had to be born in the year of 1987, for example, and live up to a particular age. Of all peoples, you have to know the ones you know right now, connected or disconnected. I believe accidental is not the word for the answer. Neither is coincidental, for with God, there is a purpose in everything. Down to every minute, down to every second. Each detail was thoughtfully crafted by our Maker, and when that exact moment came it was meted out. In the words of present tense? When the precise moment comes, whatever the purpose God intends will meet with the given time(seasons).So mates, fellow friends, peers or older or younger souls-&lt;br /&gt; stand amazed. &lt;br

sweetest goodbye&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;not until you look at the video and&lt;br /&gt;think wth does he think hes doing? rolling&lt;br /&gt;about in the sand like that&lt;br /&gt;you listen over and over&lt;br /&gt;the track keeps repeating itself&lt;br /&gt;you cant get it out of your head&lt;br /&gt;wham! it starts to annoy you&lt;br /&gt;the prickly little catus thorns&lt;br /&gt;start to cling onto your bare,&lt;br /&gt;sweltering skin and&lt;br /&gt;the touch isnt pleasant&lt;br /&gt;it isnt nice.&lt;br /&gt;right, youre getting sick of it&lt;br /&gt;you need a puke bag, for fuck's sake.&lt;br /&gt;why did i even think about buying that lousy band's cd&lt;br /&gt;when i could download it off the net for free&lt;br /&gt;no. of course its not that bad but it gets on yor nerves&lt;br /&gt;how that dude can sing in such a bizarre way it&lt;br /&gt;really makes you desire technology to quicken so fast&lt;br /&gt;you can get a teleporter machine of some kind so &lt;br /&gt;you can reach out to him,&lt;br /&gt;wring his neck just for a shocker&lt;br /&gt;so you can try to shut him up&lt;br /&gt;its just like the time paris hilton and nicole r&lt;br /&gt;did that cheap farm show. that reality gimmick in an attempt to &lt;br /&gt;show the world that paris is a really all but a nice sweet girl &lt;br /&gt;who aint a slut, aint a whiny rich spoilt brat.&lt;br /&gt;nice. praise the Lord. now you and i now have the complete evidence&lt;br /&gt;in a series of not one but two(oh no) that well, yeah.&lt;br /&gt;she &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; a whiner, she &lt;em&gt;is&lt;/em&gt; nothing but a pain in a butt...&lt;br /&gt;well you get the idea.&lt;br /&gt;i somehow find it draining to write about this hilton girl &lt;br /&gt;i am not so sure why.&lt;br /&gt;maybe because even tho initially, like maroon5 didnt rub me the wrong way,&lt;br /&gt;i came to grow repulsive toward them both.&lt;br /&gt;although once in a while id go off&lt;br /&gt;for a tune and a short cuddliuo sing of &lt;em&gt;she will be loved&lt;/em&gt; or &lt;em&gt;this love&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but as for paris hilton&lt;br /&gt;please, all you magazine editors&lt;br /&gt;stop publishing her face in every single available magazine space u get&lt;br /&gt;your hands on. its not like she actually derseves it, does she.&lt;br /&gt;hog queen who once starred in a damn crappy show like&lt;br /&gt;haunted house, tt didnt even make it to the nomination list of the oscars&lt;br /&gt;or maybe a survey should be done to check &lt;br /&gt;just how many of those pictures are used as dartboards or&lt;br /&gt;objects of vandelism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-109408965351255085?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/109408965351255085/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=109408965351255085' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/109408965351255085'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/109408965351255085'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2004/09/u-can-get-so-sick-of-her-its-not-funny_02.html' title='u can get so sick of her its not funny'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-109352549081561488</id><published>2004-08-28T04:01:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2004-09-03T19:01:59.990+10:00</updated><title type='text'>raid my music rack/</title><content type='html'>&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/splendidme04/aa049791_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/tissueboxispurple/pulse12-04_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/tissueboxispurple/home-lft01_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;drumming along to nothing+sound bytes+radio's on mute mode+ i tried to rock u but u only can roll+soundlounge+sony tail wag.&lt;/blockquote&gt;putting yor ear next to the wall&lt;br /&gt;you overhear your best friend's call&lt;br /&gt;nah, its just some music&lt;br /&gt;drumming away&lt;br /&gt;u start to sway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;listening to music &lt;br /&gt;is like changing clothes'&lt;br /&gt;rows of racks&lt;br /&gt;shelving multi platnium cds &lt;br /&gt;is like clothes on display&lt;br /&gt;on the clothes rack&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;im just rumbling along&lt;br /&gt;my eyes blink&lt;br /&gt;thots dont sparkle.&lt;br /&gt;alright, im logging off.&lt;br /&gt;back when i feel more inspired&lt;br /&gt;to drone on and on and on and on.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539455-109352549081561488?l=thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/feeds/109352549081561488/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7539455&amp;postID=109352549081561488' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/109352549081561488'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7539455/posts/default/109352549081561488'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thepurpletissuebox.blogspot.com/2004/08/raid-my-music-rack.html' title='raid my music rack/'/><author><name>Monchd.</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539455.post-109333190032195633</id><published>2004-08-24T17:07:00.000+10:00</published><updated>2004-08-26T22:35:26.100+10:00</updated><title type='text'>I try to brainstorm for a local write</title><content type='html'>&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/splendidme04/aa040087_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;img src="http://mpg.cc/splendidme04/aa013637_large.jpg"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Local scenes&lt;br /&gt;Hougang mall    sbs buses      mrt         ntuc       &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My Singapore trait swirls like a finger turning in a finished dish of hot chilli crabs&lt;br /&gt;Trying to savour the last traces and bits of it.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is probably the first time im writing something from a local perspective. Never having always envied the way Singapore writer, Catherine Lim, has written, I never saw the point of my writing being etched and glossed with a Singaporean accent. But then again, ive never fully completed one of her books, ever. Not that I despised this heritage of a culture that I was born into, (no way, im proud to be Singaporean.) but more so I never thought about it before. It never occurred to me, nor did I ever have an invested interest in Singaporean flavoured novels or the likes that my elder sister and some of my friends had.&lt;br /&gt;I grew up on books such as the babysitters club, sweetvalley jr, books written by enid blyton, roald Dahl, published by nickelodeon, apple paperbacks and lots of other random books of which their names I cant remember now. Perhaps, it was this immersion that forged my school composition writings to always point toward the western direction (culture/influence). The international commonwealth essay writing competition, of which a few of us had been selected to enter, was a first eye opener.  I had asked earnestly, “do u think I stand a good chance winning this thing?” to which my teacher and a fellow classmate/friend replied on my essay, and essays in general, were too “americanised”. To my puzzlement, I never fully understood what it meant by that. As well as the probing question of, “yah. But, what’s so wrong with that?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must admit, five years down the road, I still haven’t given much thought to reflect on local writings and its beauty. Having gained some exposure in the recent years to such writings, have certainly caused me to have a more open perspective and blossomed a much cultivated interest in me. It comes alive to me (and im sure to most Singaporeans), not only because of the sophistication of the piece but particularly because I can identify with the familiarity and the experiences embedded within those (very) words.&lt;br /&gt;It’s been nearly two years now since ive done up a fictional essay and I can still remember the time my sec4 english teacher asked us to write an essay on “my neighbourhood”. Clearly the imagination line was cut within distinct boundaries and was not entirely allowed to grow out of context from which she insisted we take notes of the neighbourhood we live in. (i hated essays like that, where imagination was stifled and not allowed to roam free and creative juices condemned to remain stagnant.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;We were meant to divide an A4 page of our exercise book into sections under headings such as ‘sights I see’, ‘sounds I hear’, then take a tour with her, almost like ‘follow the leader’, yay shes giving us a mini excursion how exciting, will u be my partner, lets hold hands!- much like primary school kids. At least it was better than having to sit in class and listen to her  drone one about our last essay’s unnecessary mistakes or doing some o’levels practice comprehension questions. (I hated that. It wasn’t as easy as the chinese ones whereby ‘cut and paste’ techniques were highly appraised and given good scores. For the English ones, you had to actually raid your brain and think before giving a proper answer, plus inferring from the text was a must.)&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, I believe I just got carried away from what I initially intended to say. Not to say that was a bad thing cos I actually put to practice some never used before anecdotes that make this uniquely Singaporean. To get back to the point, I meant to say I did badly on that essay, ‘24/26 out of 40, if I remember correctly. I told you I never did well writing from a local perspective, (not that I ever tried until I was forced to) plus the fact ‘my neighbourhood’ really was pretty much a crap topic anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For starters, the fourth book I read written by a Singaporean writer, was it mammon corp. or mammon inc.? cant recall the exact title. But that book was darn good. It was so authentic in its composition(flavour), I almost relished every single page. (okay, maybe im exaggerating, but u get the idea). The play was just as awesome. I left the theatre gushing about it. So that was my first local read that opened up my sights and a newborn quivering excitement was found for local writes. Still, I did not give this much thought. Then came the introduction of the seventeen magazine which dedicates its last two to three pages to a short story or extract from the locals. All the issues ive collected so far are intricately Singaporean in flavour. Eight days also has a  single page dedicated to a short read from some editor every issue.(which I don’t know why ive been oblivious to those articles until my last few months of my stay in sg. Probably becos I hardly ever bought the eightdays anyway.) Some bloggers are damn good, others are plain shit. (excuse me for being harsh. P.s. no offence) Now I imagine writing about life in Singapore. I have a raw idea, starkly defined in my mind.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;‘as I stare, straight ahead, looking in on the other block of flat, I hear the sound of the passing cars, buses, taxis, lorries, just fourteen storeys below. The yiochukang primary school kids have just been released from another endearing long day at school. And the waft of mom’s dinner comes to my nose from the kitchen. I take a deep breath in, as the humidity lowers to give way to the cool of the evening air.  think im going back to channel surfing with scv, maybe some mtv asia. Hope Utt’s on veejaying now.’&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So what do I think about people who can do local writes now? I think they’re simply fantastic and I wish I could do something like that too. Kudos to all those trusty Singaporean writers and their un-presuming, non pretentious flow of thought. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;My Singaporean mark churns like a pair of chopsticks fidgeting with a bowl of dry meepok (too oily)&lt;br /&gt;Maybe ill swap for some of my favourite rojak instead.&lt;br /&gt;Savouring choice bowls over none&lt;br /&gt;And widens one’s
