When advertisements start making sense

Mapo-tofu... so salivating right.



I was browsing through some Internet applications and I saw an advertisement saying, "Soy proteins make you fat and increase your belly fat"!


Before you read any further, you should know that I love soy products. Tofu is an addiction, unfortunately for me. =(


But I do love tofu lah, not forced to like it or something.


Mr. Mike Geary, a Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Nutrition Specialist says that many people are deceived and misled into believing soy protein, soy milk, soybean oil, and processed soy foods are "healthy"... when the truth is that soy has many anti-nutrients and negative factors on the body that we should be concerned about - like increasing your stomach fat.


Ouch. Now I know why...

Romans 14:20
Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble.


Food for thought, literally!

The second traveler


A traveler nearing a great city asked an old man seated by the road, "What are the people like in this city?"

"What were they like where you came from?" the man asked.


"Horrible," the traveler reported. "Mean, untrustworthy, detestable in all respects."

"Ah," said the old man, "you will find them the same in the city ahead."


Scarcely had the first traveler gone on his way when another stopped to inquire about the people in this city before him. Again the old man asked about the people in the place the traveler had just left.


"They were fine people: honest, industrious, and generous to a fault," declared the second traveler. "I was sorry to leave."


The old man responded, "That's exactly how you'll find the people here."


[edited, lol]
Who we are determines what we see.

If you are a trustworthy person, you will view others as trustworthy.
If you are a critical person, you will view others as critical.
If you are compassionate, you will view others as compassionate.
If you are skeptical, you will view others as skeptical.


WHAT AN INPUT.

Scribbles

Dear pimple(s),

Thanks for cruising with me during these few days of exam. I appreciate the pain and squeezes I had to endure. Thankfully the exams are over, I can now say goodbye to you zits!

Oh yes.

And now... it's time to let the holiday mood settle in. And spend good quality time with people!

Of black tops and teh tariks


Two friends wearing black tops and drinking their teh tarik until the same volume is left in their cups is not a coincidence. Took a photo to commemorate the event lol.

Chia Yee told me not to tag her on Facebook.

And I didn't. Hahahaha.


... Now back to my books.

Pray Until Something Happens (P.U.S.H.)

Dear God, help me to:

♥ Live and move and have my being in You.
♥ Not waste time as I prepare for my finals.
♥ Be wise and alert.

In Jesus' name,
Amen.

She stood on the first row

I gotta feeling
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night
That tonight's gonna be a good night



Wei Wei was like, "So fast its LOUD! 09? LOUD! 08 just passed only wey." XD


A church stripped off its many perception that churches are boring. We are created by a creative God - He made the earth and everything in it - so its only right if we as His people are creative too! There's nothing wrong with Christians having fun. Good fun.

I stood on the first row and sang along to What About Now and Say. I totally lost myself there lol. The Viva La Vida finale (psst Aisha!) was incredible as the whole crowd of close to 2000 sang to the chorus of "Wooooooohhh..."

Most importantly, with the message in closing, many made the decisions to believe in the One love that is perfect. In the life of a good shepherd who laid down his life for his sheeps.


It was not just a good night on the 26th July. It was a great night. It was a celebration of living out our destinies. And that's why they say, you've got ONE LIFE, live it to the fullest!


LOUD! 2010 is coming to Dream Centre near you. ;P
