Flywheel.

Caught a great movie today ! Thanks for the invite mq :)

Though its a low-budget film and acting wasn't exactly professional and stuffs, i still think this movie is amazing. The storyline easily makes up for some of the film's shortcomings. It's a Christian film with strong messages of love, redemption, transformation and grace.. uplifting and inspirational. I believe non-christians will like this film too. There were some funny bits here and there as well. Definitely worth a watch :)

Lots of afterthoughts, but something that actually stood out for me was that I realised there will be consequences for every action made- even after apologising. Our God is a God of justice and while He may have forgiven us, He still allows the (painful) consequences to happen.

I guess God forgives sin immediately upon repentance, but it takes longer to build character. It is our character, not forgiveness, that determines what God brings next to our life. Additionally, I feel the film did a great job in portraying what true repentance really is- Dont just apologise for the wrong things you've done. Unlearn the wrong things, and learn to do the right things at once! Willingness and obedience must go together.

Because we know the devastating consequences of our disobedience, let us diligently avoid every sin and "and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us" (Hebrews 12:1).

Btw, I've always wanted to watch "Facing the Giants". Just realised its from the same producer as Flywheel ! :)

and, thank God operation went well for JD's mum. Stay strong fellow aizai, will continue to pray for you and your family. I'll defintely avail myself for you if I can be of further help. We're all rooting for you. take care :)

+ God Bless

final destination (2009) is horribly.....horrible. dun catch it, unless ur a fan of blood, gore, lousy cinematic effects and mediocre storyline. i was never a fan of this movie series, or rather, i never liked any of these shows (the original FD was okay la. but u just need to catch that one. the rest is crap).. anyway, somehow i still managed to watch all of them :s hmm i dunno why. i think its one of those 天时地利人和 theory..haha. just happened to be on TV when i was free..and somehoww i never get interrupted watching those films. and i was never tired enough to just doze off midway. unlike films that i wanna concentrate on...i always get called off to do other stuffs. or i'd be too tired my eyelids weighed a ton. zzz. can u believe it.. i so wanted to watch narnia... but i was so tired that period of time...i succeeded only on the 4th try. i slept midway the first 3 tries. not that it was boring...i love the show, i was jus too tired. i know, very random piece of information.. and.. same thing with pirates of the caribbean: dead man's chest. i succeeded only at the 3rd try.

so we never planned to catch a movie today. just random. wanted to watch UP.. but it wasnt on...and i have no idea why we picked FD out of the four movies that were still screening at that time. wokay......after reading this whole chunk of blabbering....the essence is still in my first sentence- fd (2009) is horrible.

but other than that.... today was kinda therapeutic. getting to meet the clique.. and just catch up. hopefully, when we meet again, it'll be at a happier and more appropriate place. though you dun read this, my heart goes out to you and your family my friend. take good care.

and of cos..once again im thankful for my dear brudder, heres another guy i can always count on! :) my super4 cab came at the right time, and on time :) sturdy pompeepee.. :) i hope the latte's not gonna interfere in my sleep later..

and...somehow, i love the last conversation i had today. it was strangely, nice.

OWELLzz...so there, bits and pieces of my day. started off rainy, but cleared towards the end.

....rainbows rainbows..wherefore art thou rainbows?

"As long as there is love, there is hope"

Caught "The Love of Siam" last night. and I love it ! only available at GV Europa which is at vivocity..go catch if if u can afford the time. this is not your typical gay-themed movie where plots normally deal with homosexuality superficially and as a distinct issue. i like the way the lives of the characters are intertwined.. and how they're woven into a beautiful story of family, love, sacrifice...realities of life. and i especially love how this movie portrayed a mother's love, strength and resilience in times of crisis.. how she never once thought about abandoning the family, how she faced adversities head on. absolutely love this movie. love the themes, the genuine dialogues, emotion-filled scenes peppered with humour, the soundtrack, and if those arent good enough... 2.5hrs to drool on pretty boys should be a good enough reason? :D

"If we can love someone so much, how will we be able to handle it the one day when we are separated? And, if being separated is a part of life, and you know it will happen, is it possible that we can love someone and never be afraid of losing them? At the same time, I was also wondering, is it possible that we can live our entire life without loving anyone at all? That’s my loneliness." — Mew to Tong

can you live life without loving anyone at all?
