not quite prepped to get wet
but this is as good a holiday
as it gets

happy 2009!

christmas cat

i turned around
and saw this feline
sitting on my car.

i had to carry her down
after failing to persuade her
to get off.

merry christmas to you!

rainy saturday

i dont remember having
any dry season this year

layers of sky

there's a blanket over the valley on this cold day

as good as you

thank you all for making 2008
a memorable one

colourful or grey

the two ways of viewing
the world around you

where a rainbow can be found

God keeps His promises

probably i did not wait long enough.

but based on observation i was pretty sure it has already come to a point of no return.

so i got back up and walked on. so why won't you let me let it go?

after all i didn't throw it away, i still love it and kept it for so long.

one day i decided to share it. not throw it away, but let someone else enjoy it as well.

so why that reaction? why look at me as if i have committed a serious crime?

why?

so what must i do now? take it back and keep it forever? or be a disappointment in your sights?

wet day

raining mornings are hard to come by.

is it wrong for me to share this?

classic

this is the Apple notMac

inevitable

for the longest time i wonder
why are we not growing
why it feels that we are weakening
why we are just going through the motions

i thought to myself and realise that
i could be the problem
i could be the cause
i could be the why

i will say no more of the other
but i doubt that God will let us grow or fly
as long as there is something so obvious
that must be first made right

i will watch and wait a while more
because i cannot see you this way for long
it's best that i do the inevitable
that i should be the one to walk away

so that you can fly again

the obvious

who wouldn't hate you for this?

#2

yellow box, understand?

bye bye

seeing this screen on you for the last time. we'll be headed off into different directions from here on.

it's been a year of fun and learning. even though not my first choice, i will still miss you. it could have been a smooth ride.

end

the ride ends

cruise

what was the speed limit again?

a pleasure to meet you

fun squeezing him into that

midnight stroll

in some places, the lights are always on

shake

think IS isn't working too well

monday

mondays, or every weekday,
should be public holidays.

working becomes more pleasant
that way.

why did they make you
so difficult?

what do you want?

so, ms. pink,

it's clear that nothing good has come out of you since you left.

are you feeling insecure that things fly right through you?

you just hang in there, and it will be over soon, all right?

then you can have all the (whatever) you so desperately need.

in the meantime, think of the consequences of your actions.

i can't believe you would go this far to get what you want.

what you seek is not what i will fight to keep.

so don't waste your energy to further ruin your image.

soon it will be all yours to indulge in.

out of the bowl

why would anyone do this?

(besides making it being easier
to water the poor plant)

to everyone

thank you all

dedicated to

smile, make them think you're happy
lie and say that things are fine
and hide that empty longing that you feel
don't ever show it,
just keep your heart concealed

why are the days so lonely?
i wonder where,
where can a heart go free
and who will dry the tears
that no one has seen?
there must be someone
to share your silent dreams

caught like a leaf in the wind
looking for a friend,
where can you turn?
whisper the words of a prayer
and you'll find Him there
arms open wide,
love in His eyes

Jesus, He meets you where you are
Jesus, He heals your secret scars
all the love you're longing for
is Jesus, the friend of a wounded heart

joy comes like the the morning
and hope deepens as you grow
and peace,
beyond the reaches of your soul
comes blowing through you,
for love has made you whole

once like a leaf in the wind
looking for a friend,
where could you turn?
you spoke the words of a prayer
and you found Him there
arms open wide, love in His eyes

Jesus, He meets you where you are
Jesus, He heals your secret scars
all the love you're longing for
is Jesus, the friend of a wounded heart

He meets you where you are
Jesus, He heals your secret scars
all the love you're longing for,
all the love that you need
is Jesus, the friend of a wounded heart

gotcha

rainbow and sunrise, on the list

what's that?

this little guy is
more interested in the camera
than posing for a picture

the rest of them are here

another one

and the week comes to an end

interesting

anyone here interested to be a
wed designer?

farewell

can't believe they could all fit
into my little room.

anyway time to move them out,
and replace with the next batch of stuff.
until next time.

do you remember

do you remember how
do you remember why
do you remember this?

yellow

they do know how to ruin things;
it is actually (suitable) for all
and it's meant for all.

they're probably just being yellow.

lunar activity

was about to retire for the day
when i realised the lesser light
was shining brightly through the window

and i thought it was too far away
to do this
