after talkin to a v good fren... he casually said... so u now noe that life is not about cinderella anymore uh...
tt quite strucks me.. i mean... its nt wrong to think of ur life as a cinderella story... but m i over.fantasising it to b beautiful... when the reality shows n confirms that it is not.. at all.
its nt fair u noe... i wan to find no fault in relating my life as a cinderella story... but things cropped up n screw things up.... i've been tryin v hard on my side, just like cinderella.. but currently... things are nt changing... vip sugggests, i m still at the v initial chapter of the story...FAR from her ball.. far from the meeting of the prince.. far from fairy.godmother.. far from her glass shoe... far.. far.... far... far away..
but its stilll a cinderella story i noe... though its stilll at the scene where she's sufferin... with the stepmother n all...
it will b beautiful i noe..at least God can assure me that.. i believe

the Literature of pathetic fallacy motivated a deep n excess sense of melancholic in me thruóut the day... the weather really dint help me get better..
i dint want to go out the whole of today. so i spend the day in relatively deeep n intellectual n emotional thoughts. however. things didnt get better... i watched some VCDs and hang ard at home.... wadever thought n worries came to me.. i remind myself to ask for help from the Lord.
nevertheless.. buddies arranged a gathering ... perhaps a post mine xmas outing... n they actually forced me out.. forced.. we went to Island Creamery . the Wine place.. n had chicken wings... i was surprised how infront of them i didnt need to pretend nor hide my emotions. i was so silent tt i didnt talk much. i admit it was so not myself. bcos normally i have the most to say.
howver. the ice cream failed.. thick creammmy chewy chocolaty ice cream didnt make me warm, or happier.... i reallly tot it will.. but nt this time around.. yet, it was the semi-bitter white wine i requested ... and the juicy oily chicken wings tt actually made me 2% happier.
i was feeling warm n hot on the surface, (onthe skin, cos of the alcohol) .. but the ambience was so totally cold, dim, romantic? n most imptly the kind of envt which will set ANYONE THAT IS PROBLEMATIC, in tat sense, THINK...... or.... where MOSSSTTTTTTT thoughts roam... quite wildy , i suppose
they say they c bubbles frm my head ... they knew i was dreamin.. yes. i did.. God knows wad
i still wan to complain abt the weather.. it really didnt make me ffeeel better. i see no sunshine.. is tt a kind of bad omen? ydae nite.. the xmas nite... it started raining... all the way... till now//
wads wrong.. wad happen.. the heavy droplets of rain..... they fell on me... heavily.... quite painfully i thought..
give me the sunshine can? my dear Lord..
for my sake.. please...
i need that lil' glimpse of hope... if u willl dear God

In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke, it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.............. Dart Test... A young lady named Sally, relates an experience she had in a seminary class, given by her teacher, Dr. Smith. She says that Dr. Smith was known for his elaborate object lessons. One particular day, Sally walked into the seminary and knew they were in for a fun day! On the wall was a big target and on a nearby table were many darts. Dr. Smith told the students to draw a picture of someone that they disliked or someone who had made them angry, and he would allow them to throw darts at the person's picture. Sally's friend drew a picture of who had stolen her boyfriend. Another friend drew a picture of his little brother. Sally drew a picture of a former friend, putting a great deal of detail into her drawing, even drawing pimples on the face. Sally was pleased with the overall effect she had achieved. The class lined up and began throwing darts. Some of the students threw their darts with such force that their targets were ripping apart. Sally looked forward to her turn, and was filled with disappointment when Dr. Smith, because of time limits, asked the students to return to their seats. As Sally sat thinking about how angry she was because she didn't have a chance to throw any darts at her target. Dr. Smith began removing the target from the wall. Underneath the target was a picture of Jesus. A hush fell over the room as each student viewed the mangled picture of Jesus; holes and jagged marks covered His face and His eyes were pierced. Dr. Smith said only these words... "In as much as ye have done it unto the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto Me." Matthew 25:40. No other words were necessary; the tears filled eyes of the students focused only on the picture of Christ.

Beware of Mirrors in Hotels!
...Because you never know!
How to determine if a mirror are 2 way or not (Not a Joke!)
A policewoman who travels all over the US and gives seminars and techniques for businesswomen passed this on.
HOW TO DETECT A 2-WAY MIRROR :
When we visit toilets, bathrooms, hotel rooms, changing rooms, etc. How many of you know for sure that the seemingly ordinary mirror hanging on the wall is a real mirror, or actually a 2-way mirror (i.e., they can see you, but you can't see them).
There have been many cases of people installing 2-way mirrors in female changing rooms. It is very difficult to positively identify the surface by just looking at it. So, how do we determine with any amount of certainty what type of mirror we are looking at? Just conduct this simple test:
Place the tip of your fingernail against the reflective surface and if there is a GAP between your fingernail and the image of the nail, then it is a GENUINE mirror. However, if your fingernail DIRECTLY TOUCHES the image of your nail, then BEWARE, FOR IT IS A 2-WAY MIRROR!
So remember, every time you see a mirror, do the "fingernail test." It doesn't cost you anything. It is simple to do, and it might save you from getting "visually raped"! This is a really good thing to do. The reason there is a gap on a real mirror, is because the silver is on the back of the mirror UNDER the glass. As a two-way mirror, the silver is on the surface.
Keep it in mind!

Through a Rapist's Eyes!!!!
This is important information for females of ALL ages .
A group of rapists and date rapists in prison were interviewed on what they look for in a potential victim and here are some interesting facts :
1) The first thing men look for in a potential victim is hairstyle. ? They are most likely to go after a woman with a ponytail, bun, braid or other hairstyle that can easily be grabbed. They are also likely to go after a woman with long hair. Women with short hair are not common targets.
2) The second thing men look for is clothing. They will look for women who's clothing is easy to remove quickly. Many of them carry scissors around specifically to cut clothing.
3) They also look for women on their cell phone, searching through their purse or doing other activities while walking because they are off guard and can be easily overpowered.
4) Men are most likely to attack & rape in the early morning, between 5:00 a.m. and 8:30 a.m.
5) The number one place women are abducted from/attacked is grocery store parking lots. Number two is office parking lots/garages . Number three is public restrooms.
6) The thing about these men is that they are looking to grab a woman and quickly move her to another location where they don't have to worry about getting caught.
7) Only 2% said they carried weapons because rape carries a 3-5 year sentence but rape with a weapon is 15-20 years.
8) If you put up any kind of a fight at all, they get discouraged because it only takes a minute or two for them to realize that going after you isn't worth it because it will be time-consuming
9) These men said they would not pick on women who have umbrellas, or other similar objects that can be used from a distance, in their hands. Keys are not a deterrent because you have to get really close to the attacker to use them as a weapon. So, the idea is to convince these guys you're not worth it.
10) Several defense mechanisms he taught us are: If someone is following behind you on a street or in a garage or with you in an elevator or stairwell, look them in the face and ask them a question, like what time is it, or make general small talk: "I can't believe it is so cold out here", "we're in for a bad winter." Now you've seen their face and could identify them in a line-up; you lose appeal as a target.
11) If someone is coming toward you, hold out your hands in front of you and yell STOP or STAY BACK ! Most of the rapists this man talked to said they'd leave a woman alone if she yelled or showed that she would not be afraid to fight back . Again, they are looking for an EASY target.
12) If you carry pepper spray (this instructor was a huge advocate of it and carries it with him wherever he goes,) yell I HAVE PEPPER Spray and holding it out will be a deterrent.
13) If someone grabs you, you can't beat them with strength but you can by outsmarting them. If you are grabbed around the waist from behind, pinch the attacker either under the arm (between the elbow and armpit) OR in the upper inner thigh VERY VERY HARD . One woman in a class this guy taught told him she used the underarm pinch on a guy who was trying to date rape her and was so upset she broke through the skin and tore out muscle strands - the guy needed stitches. Try pinching yourself in those places as hard as you can stand it; it hurts.
14) After the initial hit, always GO for the GROIN . I know from a particularly unfortunate experience that if you slap a guy's parts it is extremely painful. You might think that you'll anger the guy and make him want to hurt you more, but the thing these rapists told our instructor is that they want a woman who will not cause a lot of trouble. Start causing trouble, and he's out of there.
15) When the guy puts his hands up to you, grab his first two fingers and bend them back as far as possible with as much pressure pushing down on them as possible . The instructor did it to me without using much pressure, and I ended up on my knees and both knuckles cracked audibly.
16) Of course the things we always hear still apply. Always be aware of your surroundings , take someone with you if you can and if you see any odd behavior, don't dismiss it, go with your instincts!!! You may feel a little silly at the time, but you'd feel much worse if the guy really was trouble
PLEASE READ THEN FORWARD THIS TO EVERY WOMAN. YOU KNOW, IT'S SIMPLE STUFF BUT IT COULD SAVE HER LIFE.

11:12 AM ;
A Muslim man in Egypt killed his wife and then buried her with their infant baby and 8-year old daughter .
The girls were buried alive!
He then reported to the police that an uncle killed the kids.
15 days later, another family member died. When they went to bury him, they found the 2 little girls under the sand - ALIVE !
The country is outraged over the incident, and the man will be executed.
The older girl was asked how she had survived.
"A man wearing shiny white clothes, with bleeding wounds in his hands, came every day to feed us. He woke up my mom so she could nurse my sister," she said.
She was interviewed on Egyptian national TV, by a veiled Muslim woman news anchor. She said on public TV, "This was none other than Jesus, because nobody else does things like this!" Muslims believe Isa (Jesus) would do this, but the wounds mean He really was crucified, and it's clear also that He is alive!
But, it's also clear that the child could not make up a story like this, and there is no way these children could have survived without a true miracle.
Muslim leaders are going to have a hard time to figure out what to do with this, and the popularity of the Passion movie doesn't help!
With Egypt at the centre of the media and education in the Middle East, you can be sure this story will spread. Christ is still turning the world upside down!
Please let this story be shared.
The Lord says, "I will bless the person who puts his trust in me." Jeremiah 17:7
