ONLINE JOURNAL ARCHIVE
SEPTEMBER 2001

[09/27 3:31am] Just got promoted to Site Point Zealot over there at SitePoint Forums. Just wanted to share! I think it came along with my 100th post.  Its only been like 5 or 6 days. WOW!

Have been very weak these last few days. I'm not even completely well. Maybe the change in sleeping habits is getting to me, or its maybe because I don't eat!

Oh well. Tomorrow's (I mean later) another BIG day. A lot of errands to run.


[09/25 3:51pm] Back to work today! As I dragged myself out of bed, the thought of work overwhelmed me.  So I closed my again and prayed.

As I was reading through the Book of Acts this morning I came across this passage which I would like to share with you.  Its from Chapter 4 verse 10-12.

"It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth...the stone you builders rejected, which has become the capstone...Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given t men by which we must be saved."


[09/24 2:40am] Had a talk with a really close friend today.  It has been quite a while, so the phone call lasted around 3 hours.  There was nothing else to do anyway, the electricity was out most of the time.

She read through the essay on myself and gushed,  "you laughed at me when I admitted I was control freak now you come and say you're one too!"

Well I am one, and there's nothing really wrong with!  It's good to know that everything is working the way it should... :)


[09/23 3:37am] I've got church later so I will make this quick. Just wanted to say that I almost got bumped a while ago. (actually yesterday)

Was on my way to work, driving normally on a 5-lane road when all of a sudden a lorry (mini truck) on a lane to towards my left in front of me swerved like three lanes to the right.  I had to swerve all the way to the end of the road just to avoid him.  Good thing the road was clear at that point.

Thank God!


[09/21 12:49am] Its been just a few hours since I got out of bed.  Have been really sick today and spent most of it in bed. Kinda feel guilty that I didn't make the best of my time off from work so I went online to check my e-mail, find some work, and sign-up for a Blogger page for this site. 

I backed out the last minute because I was unwilling to shell out my ftp username and password required with the options I chose.  Not that I have anything against the service they provide, I'm sure the 6-man team behind the site has no intention to hack into anyone's site. I just guess that I'm just not ready to take such a risk. Anyway, I figured that one can always do it manually, so here's my try at it.

My online journal contains daily thoughts put into digital paper. I'm not really sure who will visit this page, (besides my mom that is) but I figure that given the voyeuristic tendencies of man, this page could generate a substantial number of hits.

Nothing private here. Just rambling. 

Anyway, I was browsing through this site a while ago and it asked me to answer a few questions. I'd like to share with you my answers.

What surprised you most about being on your own?

The best thing about life is that is continues to unveil things before you. Everyday you learn something new. Being on my own has opened a whole new world of responsibilities, a whole set of decisions to make. That is what surprised me most, that life as a child was so much easier and that I should have never pushed myself to grow up so soon. You never really know till you get there, but I guess the journey is what makes you ready for it.

What is your personal passion?

I asked myself just the other day what drives me. After much thought I answered, "I am driven by what makes me happy, what gives me satisfaction and fulfillment, and what makes feel good inside." I find passion in music, I find passion online, on the Internet, I find passion in creating...web sites, designing graphics, taking photographs. I find passion in my relationship with my Creator and how He brings about a balance in my life so I find that driving force to push me to my limits and at the same time make me happy.
