Reasons I blog today…

A little excerpt from 5xmom’s blog which I find it so true…

You know your blog is getting lame….when you start to copy and paste
email forwards, post Youtube videos, copy and paste technology and gadgets
stuffs eventhough thousands have blogged it, write something extreme and hope
someone notices or…. when you need to go and find meme that no one tags you and do it anyway.

And OMG….my blog is getting lame. Even I feel my life is so boring that the reason i blog today because I have nothing better to do! Sigh….I need some “beats” in my life. I need Scofield (that super-cute Prison Break guy), I need a change of environment and I need something something la.

When alot of my friends seem to be busy with the concert, I’m not. Not even abit enthu about it…actually hoping for it to be over soon. One reason is that I’m not doing anything for it (kinda left-out) and another reason is that I have no tickets to give my other friends. Even I dont have a ticket myself. Now that annoyed me! Hmmph.

The blog for the CF is done and open to all. I feel sad actually…I enjoyed doin it (eventhou I sucked at website designing) but hey, that is just me. I’m the type of person who enjoy the process, the journey not the result, the destination. Yeah. everytime I logged into the admin page, I think to myself…Now what? [I'm the type who enjoy playing Simcity cuz I enjoy building the city and then...creating many many natural disasters for the city.....Muahahaha] I dont know…let see how la. Hey, I promise I wont coincidentally accidentally wreck the blog, k.

Any more reason I blog today…? hmm, I cant wait to go back now to attend my aunty’s 60th birthday bash. I dont know what kind of bash it will be but when my mum smsed n told me she is learning line-dancing for the bash….that is interesting. Hahaha. That is something i gotto see for myself. No way I’m goin to miss that even if I have to cram for my exam with my cycles.

sigh….i think i shud start thinking of activities to do, if not I’ll die of boredom soon.

Ta-Ta…I’m goin to wreck other ppl’s lives now.

Simply….

Simply …. because I want to blog. Random thoughts. First of all, I’m bored. BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED!

Yeah, u get that message loud and clear. CF Concert coming up. For those who r wondering….dun worry, I’m not singin or involve in the worship team. I guess my ‘tone-deaf’ inability have something to do with it. Hey, I’m not being disgruntled here ok. I fit better behind the scene than right up onstage. But I’m feeling I dont really like to do all the donkey works just because of my inability.

Again….BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED! BORED!

This post is boring. I post simply because I want to blog.

Trial n Error

Again, about WordPress (kinda weird for me to be typing all this as this is blogsot, I felt I’m betraying them…wait a min, me no big fan of both of them). My task hasn’t completed yet- that is managing a blogsite for the CF. I have re-modified the layout, colors, fonts etc with much difficulty. For a person who have very limited knowledge about HTML,CSS. designing website (I’m a dental student, remember)…my approach is simple – trials n errors. I read from a wordpress-pro’s blog, that guy gave the most amazing WordPress tip that is creating more WordPress blogs. That’s right, that simple. At first, I was very sceptical, almost wanna ‘cekik’ that guy…I thot I will get some useful info when I read the title “The most amazing WordPress tip you’ll ever read in your life”. But it was just that – Build more.

Ignoring it, I went back to my work. Trials and errors. N it really didnt help that every changes I made, I have to wait for a min or two for the effect to come. I almost give up fixing a minor defect. I thot to myself, that is something I have to live with it. Not that anyone reading it will care alot about it. And then, somehow I managed to screw everything up. The details are best alone here. hehe. So, out of my frustrations – I backup things I cud, change everything to default setting n do it again. But this time, as I was re-modifying the blog, I find it easier than the first time. I kinda understand the meaning of the codes, and I kinda know what shud I do to get what I want. Codes, which still look like gibberish language, begin to make sense to me.

The blog is not perfect yet. Not exactly how I wanted at first. Heck,right now, I’m still waiting for some changes to come and it is taking so long…where is my calendar?!!~ But, I guess after talking to my media leader, he is right to say it is bloggable now and some changes can be added later.

Ok, so everybody…CF NNSMA’s blog is finally ‘open’. Please visit: http://sumphero.vcfnn.org and give ur comments, suggestions etc.

But, u shud know it is not really~ ready yet. The title havent fix yet. Waiting for the official name confirmation and banner design. The “About” page need some modification with the text – I wrote it but it is kinda crappy. The ‘verse of the day’ flash box is still out of allignment and where is my stupid calendar?!

Actually, this whole designing blog experience make me ponders a few things. The whole time, the fact I’m wasting my time n energy for something that is not mine (I didnt put in that much effort in my blog), I dont feel any negative emotions about it. In fact, I feel proud that I’m contributing something for the CF out of my own. Cuz I know, if this can help reaching out to others or maybe just maintaining the ties between our Christian students, it is worth it. And eventhough, I’m no genius in these matters, I did feel disappointed and wanting to give up, I feel in a way, God helped me. By knowing I’m doin something for Him, it encouraged me to push on. N yesterday, I read the Bible and came across this famous passage but I didnt dwell much into it before. Something like… “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in your weakness…..” 2Cor 12:14. God telling Paul that His grace will help him live with his illness (or his thorns)
I thought to myself, I am not going to say defeat or be crippled by my lack of knowledge. I’ll try n try again till the blog will be right.

Indulging Faith_, Reflections n Musings_

I went to school today…

I went to school today to treat kids. 8 years old kids and I was traumatised at the end of the day!!! People always say kids scared of dentist. Actually, today…I am more scared of the kids than they are scared of me. Urrghhh!

As part of my oral hygiene cycle, I have to visit a school, make dental examination on the kids and apply topical sealants on their teeth if necessary. I went there yesterday to examine them actually, and today for treatment. Scary….the thoughts of me making a mistake or was rough with them, they cried out their lungs…then my teacher will scold me or worse, the angry-looking parents coming after me for messing with their kids. Luckily, none of these happened…phew! But there is this kid…haiyoh~! She gagged at the crucial point of the treatment. I dont know whether she is for real or not. Well, I dont think so lor since I did nothing that can make a person gag! All I did was isolate the tooth (back tooth) from saliva – meaning putting cotton swab around it n she just have to keep the mouth open. N I just have to clean the tooth surface, put some medication and lastly the sealant – a thin film on the tooth surface.

Well, at the end…thank God nothing bad happened. But I swear I will never specialize in children’s dentistry.

Just a fast update on today’s events before i forget it. Kinda in a mess now with stuff esp studies.
