Hiatus
Hi world~ I've quite abandoned my bloggy since, erm let's see, dec 23 2009.
It's 2 Feb 2010 now. There are times that I really wish for the clock to stop. It did stop (because it went out of batt :P ) but the world proceed on with its frightening pace, almost leaving no gap for me to shuffle or consolidate my thoughts.
I started off 2010 with a great chapter by travelling to Hong Kong with Shu Juan and Yun Ting. It was a superb trip because the company and time were more than I could have wish for (it would be even better if yvonne came along). :) I will always keep with me the boarding pass with my 21st Birthday date stamped on- a memorable proof of being in HK when I cross the legal line. After coming home, I had a few belated birthday dinner here and there with different groups of friends. With it come various sweet surprises which I still savour even till now.
It's Jesus's Birthday month!
Tis the season to be busy in a jolly mood!
Busy with what you may wonder. Of course it's everything to do with yuletide shopping!
I've bought enough things reflected in my transaction account to feed a huge family in the third world. To repent, I donated a goat and a few chickens through World Vision for hungry families. I hope they will be able to bask in the festive mood just like each and everyone of us is entittled to.
It's a strange world
I'm very intrigued after watching "The Girl Who Cries Blood" on okto minutes ago. It's about a 13 year-old teenager named Twinkle from Northern India who claimed to bleed from her scalp, hands and eyes at an unpredictable timing with no obvious inflict of injuries or open wounds.
The hametogoist who observed her ended with two diagnosis, one using his heart and one using his head. He wishes to trust both mother and daughter that they didn't put the blood there intentionally and it's not a case of mushensen sydrome by proxy (fabrication of illness by parent to seek empathy from the mass population). However, no medical claims were made and they weren't able to witness the bleeding right from the start unless Twinkle is medically-monitored 24 hours.
For a down-to-earth person like me, I can't really believe that the illness is real. It just seems intentional. However, after the end of the programme, you can't help but wonder why didn't National Geographic arrange a close 24-hour examination and provide the tv viewers with a proper diagnosis? Could it be that both mum and daughter refuse to? Or just a tactic of NG to dangle viewer's appetite?
