We Had...

A Formative Test today. It's just a simple test to test us on what we've learned for the past month. It was all good...

Except PA.

I kinda screwed it up. Instead of drawing the right graph, I panicked and drew the wrong one. What's ironic is I can say assuredly that I have done the most exercises on PA graphs, and yet, I was the only one who screwed up. And technically, it's my second screw up on the same part. Oh the horror!

Lesson learned - Homework is like drugs. You take too much of them, you get an overdose, and you die. Likewise, too much homework and exercises are bad.

From today onwards, I shall minimize my homework and do only the minimum! Whee!

I'm Doing A...

Research on a famous organization. It's just those folios we do when we're in Form 1, just that this is supposed to be more high class or some sort.

I'm doing a colloquium (Higher class name for folio) for my Pengajian Am, which is the General Paper where you learn about the great Generals of old. Nah, it's about the world, what's currently going on and stuff. Anyway, I was given the responsibility of finding the success this organization brings socially or politically. And surprisingly, the failures far outweigh the success stories, to the extent I'd have to hide the truths for the sake of meeting my goal.

And then, I remembered the Bible. The authors did not need to hide the failures of great people like Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Samuel, or even the great King David (No, not The Biggest Loser David). By the guiding of the Spirit of God, they were moved to reveal everything, even though their success stories would be stained by even the tiniest failure and cause readers to say 'Eh?'. To put in simpler terms, quoting Geoffrey Chaucer of A Knight's Tale who said this to a couple of men,

"I will eviserate you in fiction. Every pimple, every character flaw. I was naked for a day; you will be naked for eternity."

The Bible doesn't lie, tell half-truths, or hide truths. For whatever good things that were mentioned were really done, and this went along with the bad. And when the Bible doesn't lie or hide anything, it's comforting to know the truth that God loves you and I so much, that He was unwilling to let us go our way, but to build a bridge for us by His only Son, Jesus Christ.

Which pops the question,

Are you willing to use this Bridge?

I know I swayed away from
what I was supposed to do,
but I can't help but to
technologically pen this down.

I Was Reading...

Articles about homosexuality. No, I'm not confused, but I was merely helping my friend find some verses that speak about it. And no, my friend is not too. I came across an article where the writer claims that the Bible is actually silent about this issue and that "Most people have not carefully and prayerfully researched the biblical texts often used to condemn God's lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender children."

He started out quite brightly by giving examples of how much blood was shed due to this misunderstanding of homosexuality. And yeah, the stuff some people did are bad, and God did not mean for them to do what they did. But as I read on, the truth got more and more bent, even bender than Neo could bend the spoon.


Let's just say I'm surprised at how he seems to reconcile the Bible and homosexuality, distorting the straight line of the Word so that it intersects with homosexuality, just like the Supply and Demand graph.


I would not want to comment too much here, lest this blog be super famous for issue-issue hot but partly also because there are just too much to comment. But just to clear things up, as much as I disagree about homosexuality, it's the sin I condemn, not the sinner.

Hmm, if you want to read the article, feel free to message me in private and decide for yourself.

Ahahaha

Look at my chatbox. She just comes and says peace.

Find that quite amusing actually.

It's like you're just walking like any ordinary day, and out of un-ordinari-ness, someone passes by and says, 'I'm a walker, peace.'

I think besides shouting 'stalker' and whacking that person, the other alternative is to just laugh about it. So,

hahahahaha!

Her link is about getting muscular.
Eh, what you trying to imply about me ar?
