Hey I'm Andrew, your average feather-in-his-cap, spring-in-his-step, sneaker-wearing, tongue-twisting, ecstacy-inducing, mind-bending, never-ending, trend-setting, floppy-fringed whatsisname. Lovable at first sight if you see me in the right light. Always willing to give second chances. And a third if you ask nicely enough. Hopelessly romantic and tragically retarded. Such a combination yields unpredictable results.
Initially shy, softspoken and quiet. Unabashed, witty and loud after the ice has broken. Proud ympacter, God-seeker, salvation-finder, redemption-searcher. I'm not a WANNABE, I'm a GONNABE. Optimist with a pessimistic edge, like a lollipop coated with glass. Always strive to be perfect, very seldom am. Dreams enough to grow a pair of wings. Realistic enough to tear them up.
Swings his moods like a monkey on a rope, but you seldom see the emotions fly. No tears in my eyes don't mean I'm not crying, no red in my eyes don't mean I ain't mad, no smile on my face don't mean I'm not happy, no frown on my brow don't mean I'm not thinking. Music is my drug and art my choice of poison. Performs well under pressure, but won't break under the peer kind.
Don't offer me your cash or flash me a badge, your friendship's good enough for me. Break my trust, watch the sparks fly. Not without forgiveness, but definitely human. Instantaneously horrific, gradually unbearable. Wait for the sky to clear up. It'll happen.
Self-testimony doesn't bring out the best in anyone, especially me. See other's for THEIR impression.
Toodles.
PLEASE DON'T:
Ask me too many questions.
Try to draw out my personal thoughts. Unless invited.
NEVER try to tell me who or what I am. How the hell would you know better than me?
NEVER EVER insult my religion. Please. It's just something you don't do.
NEVER EVER insult my family. People HAVE gotten hurt for making that mistake.
No racism. It tears this world apart and it hurts people.
Ok can everyone please keep any 'emo' comments to themselves. It's not that I care that I'm being labelled as one but gosh I've heard it so many times and frankly, it's getting quite tiresome
Call me Paul Twohill and I break your face. Grr.

Well. Today 1am to about 6pm was boring. Sitting at home really not doing much. Didn't even go out for lunch - mom bought some stuff back. I had some really nice hokkien mee actually! But I think there was something dodgy in there, my tummy wasn't feeling too good afterward but it soon cleared up :) Later went out to meet Delane at Plaza Sing cause I really haven't hung out with her much yet. Hahahaha due to some problem with either her or my phone, we ended up meeting at 7, though we were actually in the same building since 630 XD So after buying a pink bucket and a spastic bear, we went to have some dinner at Long John's. It was a total misadventure, what with stoned employees and half an hour waits for your meal zzz (-_- ) After that we just walked around and she took pictures with her awesomegroovaliciousoldschool camera. Really that camera is like uber cool! Great way to end the day! ;) Had oodles of fun haha :D
Eto~
Day10:We're into double digits! Hahaha well done everyone on getting this far! A quarter of the way through already, keep it up!
Ok so in a sense leading on from yesterday's topic, which was about being a busybody and intervening, today was about our "IOU to the poor." Basically, what God is saying, is that we
HAVE to intervene, we
HAVE to help those in poverty. He's given us a social responsibility for us to take care of those who aren't doing that well. It's not a matter of
if you do it, it's
when you do it. Back in Biblical times, people gave A TENTH of their earnings as offerings. A TENTH. It got me to thinking, am I doing enough? Am I being selfish? Should I be giving more to the needy? So I resolved to try help the poor more than I am now. Resolved to remember that every time I see someone performing on the street, or selling tissues for money, I OWE that person a favour, because of that mandate that God has given us. We have a responsibilty. Let's ensure we fulfil it :)

Dear dear dearest viewers, before you read any further, I just thought I'd point out a few rules that I hope you'll follow while going through this lil' blog of mine. You wanna listen closely now, some of these rules, when broken, are punishable by death.
Haha just kidding
Anyway here are the rules, actually let's just call 'em guidelines. Rules sound too strict for this space. So here are your GUIDLELINES:
1) Numero uno - Please do respect whatever I've written here. Whatever I post on this blog has a reason behind it and does actually mean something to me. So I just ask that you show a little respect.
2) Mind your manners please! This really actually applies to your LIFE as well. Be polite :)
3) Leading on from point 2, I do not tolerate any forms of discrimination; be it racial, sexual, whatever it is. It is definitely NOT appreciated here. Take it somewhere else.
4) Maturity is a MUST. Please keep all comments mature! Name-calling goes under 'immature' so if you were planning on doing that, please change your mind right now.
5) In the same way that prejudice and discrimination are absolute no-no's. I have a zero-tolerance policy regarding insults directed towards my friends, family and religion. Please do refrain from making offensive remarks about those subjects.
6) SH! It would be nice if you didn't spread whatever I've posted on here hahaha ;D
That aside, enjoy this blog, no matter how frequently, or rather INfrequently I update it. (I am known to go on unannounced 'breaks') Take care, God bless :)
Yours, ever so sincerely, Andyrooroo
