silly pre-set blogskins

argh. can't believe i lost all my blog addresses and tag boxes! can someone pls show me how to put them back? and do leave your blog address in my comment box when you can k? so that i can link you back. *hehe* thanks.

really wanna go overseas eh. looked at my friends' photos and i really hope i was there too. for now, i wanna go to Australia!! *haha*. just love the scenery there, and the cold weather. wonder how much it'll cost though.

for those who don't know yet, i'm working part time now. so i've two jobs. tuition, and dental assistant. busy, stressful, but it's kinda nice. i think i'm really blessed. before this job, i was thinking of doing human resource in the medical field after i graduate, and through this job, i got to talk to my bosses and colleagues, and now, i'm even more sure that this option is viable. yay!

Atlantis

does anyone remember the movie "Atlantis" by Disney? i recently watched it on cable. haha thank God for cable. anyway, something just came to mind. remember the characters Wilhelmina Packard, the communications expert, and Gaetan 'Mole' Moliere, the geologist? they're direct opposites in how they see the world. Wilhelmina's favorite line is "we're all gonna die" and mole's favorite line is " i'm so excited". haha just a tot.

driven by expectations

someone told me that i should not care so much about what others think or expect. someone told me that i am not obligated to others in how i make decisions. is that really possible? i mean, we're all driven by the expectations of others right? i hate housework, but i do them because i know that by doing it, i help to reduce my mom's stress. i learnt driving to drive my dad around and let him relax. i think i'm always so eager to find out what people expect so that i know where to go, especially the expectations of people i love and respect. really hard to imagine life without other people's expectations to guide me. =D maybe the best solution is to find someone worth following.

was just thinking about how i am pretty similar to adam and eve. in the beginning, everything was good. adam and eve dint know anything evil. they just did good without choosing to do so. but when given the chance to do the wrong thing, they took it right away. in the same way, i grew up in a christian home, studied in christian schools almost all my life, and i feel so terribly ignorant of swear words and dirty language. so somehow, i did not make that choice to do right either. so i guess in a sense, i'm glad God put the trees in the garden. it gave adam and eve a chance to choose for themselves who they wanna follow. it gave them a chance to show God that they loved Him.
