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.

Breathe for love tomorrow, cause there's no hope for today.
Still recovering from the symptoms of FOP - my throat's getting better hahaha. Hope those of you that went today had fun it was awesome no? For those of you who haven't, you should! Not only do they have an awesome worship session there, but they got a really good speaker too! And if you got a friend who's interested, or wants to go, then you should get them to come along with you :) Really, no matter what, we're all God's children gathering in one place to praise and worship Him and everyone should have that chance :)
So anyway, today was spent meeting up with a couple of Onions and watching 2 movies - The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor & Money No Enough 2. TMTOTDE was alright, kinda overrated in my opinion, but not terrible. Definitely entertaining but not a masterpiece, put it that way. MNE2 on the other hand, exceeded my expectations. It struck a fine balance between humour and heartwarming, character building stuff. I really should learn to be more thankful for my parents, they've done so much for me :)
Day33:
Omygosh, 1 week left! ONE WEEK. WOW hahaha. Eto kyo wa~ Challenges. God often gives us these little trials. And we really need to consider our reactions to such things. Do we stand up and accept the challenge or do we back down and hide? We need to learn how to see what is the right way to conquer a challenge. For example, we may not exactly like a person. But they are one of God's children. Should we act on our own impulses and disassociate ourselves from that person, or set aside our imperfections and extend the loving hand of God? Naturally, the second choice is harder, but it is the RIGHT choice. In a similar way, when God tells us to go out, fight poverty, and share your wealth, it is difficult because in this society, material possessions ensure your comfort. But the right, albeit the more difficult option, is to obey what God has said and pick up the challenge.

Speak up!
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
