cupcakes!

so im a disaster in the kitchen
but since we're all in the mood to go for exchange
i figured i shld learn
i made cupcakes and they were a success i must say
or at least one of them was a success,
the rest looked deformed cuz i didnt buy cupcake trays

uniting at acid bar

have u ever had such darling friends,
who will cling thru giggles & heartbreaks?

secret garden

she'll lead u down a path
there'll be tenderness in the air
she'll let u come just far enough
so u knw she's really there
then she'll look at u and smile
and her eyes will say
she's got a secret garden
where everything u want
where everything u need
will always stay
a million miles away

i will always rem u in ur silly cap
smiling till ur eyes are a slit
really happy to be with u (la!)

the magic that was you & me

reaching for falling from optimum

there are indeed combinations of things
that lie on the same indifference curve
and when that is met by our budget constraints
we achieve sort of an optimum point
i would say that perhaps a combination of things make me happy
one starbucks cappuccino + a kiss from teh gao
(holding other things constant)
would help me achieve my optimum
however,indifference curves do shift outwards (away from the origin)
and at higher indifference curves,there is a higher satisfaction
and of course say my budget constraint allows 2 cappuccinos + 1 kiss
it'll help me achieve the optimum there

but where is the blisspoint for happiness?
where is the ultimate ultimate optimum?
there isnt one is there?
so supposing i think i am better off with 2 cappuccinos
but at 2 cappucinos,i'd prob be better off with 3 if i had the money
and there is no end as long as i can afford it
what is my constraint as far as happiness is concerned?

black russian,what is yours?
if ure happy now why try to move to a higher indifference curve
keep in mind that ure holding things constant
if u take the things u hold constant into account,
u might just move down while trying to move up
backfire they call it
think again.
before u move.

honeymoon is over,so they say
our honeymoon is forever
happy 3months&1day

delirious?

delirious? is officially my favourite band.
this is another one of those moments i use the phrase
the english language,or my weak grasp of it,fails to express the emotions felt
from the stage craft to the vocals,
the ambience to the light that was shining through his eyes
everything spoke of the majesty of the God i worship
they left me speechless,He left me speechless,
rooted to the ground
body still but trembling on the inside
amazed at Your glorious countenance that would've zapped me if not for the cross-work
You wow-ed me once again and may i never forget this day
and what it feels like to be standing in Your presence,
washed by Your love

Lord, help me!

i need to start living my life again
knowing that there's something im living for
a purpose,some goals perhaps
been so stretched recently but
i was the closest to snapping today
walked into starbucks
and even a dbl tall cappuccino didnt make me feel better
now when that happens,i know it's serious
so i downed it
i didnt savour it,i downed it just so i consumed my $5.50
didnt even bother licking the foam from the sides of the cup
i sat at the bus stop not knowing wat bus i was waiting for
and for that split moment in time
my world collapsed
everything screwed up
then i opened my mouth and cried in desperation
Lord, help me!
and it was as if He dropped everything he was doing
from feeding the hungry in Ethiopia
to moulding new stars for the galaxy
He dropped everything and came to my rescue
my solutions fell in my lap
the universe around me regained its form
and once again,i am back on my two feet
breathing easy
why didnt i cry for help earlier?

great faith

we (abt 6 of us) were all driving in zo's car
well,actually zo was driving in zo's car
we were just riding
and then ckose to the junction at tanjong pagar,
near maxwell food centre(drool)
this old man(with a huge ass)
was crawling in the middle of the road
ok,by crawling i mean he was walking one inch at a time
(im not exaggerating)
he was crawling with his walking stick
and his huge ass was shaking from side to side in small oscillations
and zo had to stop his car in the middle of nowhere
to wait for this old man to reach the middle of the road
where there were those black n white things
(what do u call them?bars?)

anyway,the first thought that came to my mind was
this man has great faith
im sure he knew his crawling wont get him to the middle fast enough
and when zo stopped for him,he was reaching the middle already
so lucky for zo,he only waited abt 10secs
for the old man to clear the road
wat about when he started his journey
fr one side of the road to the middle thing
how long did the other cars wait?
and how sure was he that the cars were gonna stop for him?
but he crossed anyway
one goal in mind- get to the middle thing
great faith
