Thoughts on...

Rosary-I remembered vividly telling my dad that praying the rosary is a really boring form of devotional. Actually I've yet to form an opinion on devotionals in general. My regime is doing daily readings...prayer, and that's about it. And ironically, I've suddenly received a booklet from Anne on-get this, "Why Pray the Rosary"... *x-files background music*

Prayer-Evelyn shared with me something Fr Aloysius's homily. (side note: he's one of the more well-built priest around according to her, her exact words-s.e.x.y. I also know someone who really like this word, and thinks he is one =) Among others, Father said that prayer can be compared to dating.

"Dating is pointless-and so is prayer, as in, petitions might not be granted, but people date because they'd like to be in each other's presence and company-the same with prayer, we'd like to be in our God's presence and that is why we pray."

Amen?

Just thought of something, opposite of Amen-Naymen? heeh

Desperate Housewives-I've missed episodes one too many. But last weeks' was rather twisted and a little scary. The part where Bree's son would go to that extent to get back at his mum.

Exorcism of Emily Rose-I think the flow is brilliant and well-written. Although the film was banking-in on the theme of uncertainty, we know for a fact that noone can prove that God doesn't exist. And I think it is a smart move by the writers (the part where doubts are cast everywhere), no doubt to prevent censorship. And it shouldn't be missed IMHO. (side note: anyone care to share their thoughts on this film? please do so ya)

Planetshakers-Was late-really wondered how much I'd compromise for work. Drove like a maniac, think Orange (read: my car) was terrified at all the near misses...Was there when they were almost wrapping it up..Think I was a killjoy. Was sleeping outside the conference hall whilst Aaron and Kat were waiting at the foot of the escalator..so sorrie man

Went for supper at Asia Cafe, poor Sharon found a baby cockroach in her bowl of misua soup. But it didn't kill other people's appetite, like Mark who gulped down a bigger bowl (from the same shop) with more gusto. Think it must have disgusted Sharon even more. Funny. And I never made it for PS the next day. Came back from work even later!

(side note: Aaron=subset of Sharon as in, Sh-Aaron!) Ok, that was lame and I read it off Sharon's autograph book with someone signing in the same name.)

Wedding-Not mine of course. Bought a dress on the day itself. Good buy too. Pretty little thing. But would have a field day cleaning it with all the sequins. Food was the usual 10 course chinese dinner...

Bored, left early. Got lost on the way back to my friend's house where I parked my car. Had a row with dad for being 'stupid' about not knowing exactly where his house is. Okay, that's 2 times I've been lost this week. Rather not tell the first time. Don't know why I've got such a bad sense of direction.

Church-After mass, went for breakfast at the Sri Sedaya's cafeteria. Ordered a nasi lemak with chicken and egg-and it cost rm5.50. What a rip off...

Anne gave Adrian a bar of chocolate which she had bought from Australia, and he so spontaneously shared with all of us. Just like Charlie in the Roald Dahl film =) And just so happened Anne had a Wonka bar in her bag. How ironic...

Health-Also been having on-off fever this week. And back ache. Think I better go for a check-up when I've got the free time. And I need to exercise more. Think I'm really unfit nowadays. Okay, this serves as a mental note.

Some random thoughts for this week.

Cheerio

Naymen, dating is not pointless - it may be pointless at times, not ALL the time. heh, like I know.

Same goes for prayer. (not saying that it's pointless; am speaking in context)
