  If you have faith If you have faith, you will be tested for it...

Pastor Butch said that this afternoon. Like Job, like our Pastor Sunny...
Even if today's was a sermon about money (and perhaps people got stingy about it) I really don't care, all that ever ringed in my head is that phrase. Just noticed that something is not right about me or maybe the sermon. I guess it is more on the former but I'm just injecting the latter to use the "or" and lessen my crime in a way.

It is pretty admirable how people get so strong with their faith. How they amass their indestructible wealth and forget about the golds of this world. How they turn out victorious from their heart-wrenching battles. I am happy for them, but when I look at the mirror... I ask... How have I been?

For sure I have been under little-faith testing for countless of times and for countless of times too, I think I have failed. Maybe I have little confidence that I have done any good. More and more, I feel so undeserving of God's grace, and it is a wonder how I keep having them each day... The wonder of God's love. The power of love ^_^.

Faith testing. How far could I go? Probably less than a meter, but I hope not.
For the past 12 months, there was a time I searched for the truth (I did some substantial research and observations). It is kind of without bias search perhaps--> that if I would find out there's no God, then I might, ya know.
searching for answers without bias, one will arrive to a truth untarnished, that's what I read from a book. More or less I agree with it for I believe that many of those who research in the present age are even bounded by the things they wanted to find rather than to know what kind of things they can find.

I kept thinking for many days, wondering about the complexities of life and all things, and unsurprisingly I ended up to where I started. All things combined, and seeing all things as one big picture, such wouldn't make sense without God. After that I ventured for more, wanted to find more answers about the mysteries of existence. Gradually backsliding, I only realized, after many months of wasted life that I needed to stop searching for answers. Why such impractical drama and insensible reason? One, some answers Im looking for seems forbidden to be revealed to me now. Two, I do not need such answers to live, the Lord gives me all that I need to live. Three, I should go back to living. I thought, hey if it would take a lifetime for me to find the answers, I would regret if the whole time I just searched for an answer and failed to serve. I think I am better off believing in God than being an atheist. Assuming--> between an atheist and me in the end: If there is no God, the atheist would have assumed the truth and lived on his way while I lived on the choice I made as well and no harm done really. If there is God, the atheist will perish and I will live... Ain't that a ++ on my side? Hmm there's an economic term for that, something from oligopoly but anyway it doesn't really matter.I don't believe in God due to such reasoning afterall, I believe in God because He is plainly real. And Jesus, His Son, is the Savior.

Now why all these?
First of all, pardon my apparently blatant digression but I will go back soon.
Second, I have finally watched Chronicles of Narnia. Basically it pictured the kind of situation followers of Jesus face. The message to me was clear. I can even relate to the kids who apparently ain't great as knights but they did overcome! They had failures in them, but at the same time those failures became their strengths...ahhh... So many things to say...
It is just that, when I look at them and I look back in the mirror, I find not much difference except maybe of... Faith? I do not know. But I feel, something is missing in me that apparently makes me feel that I have failed countless testing. Or can it be that I have not understood the full message of narnia? (especially of the human part)

I pray that He will tell me what I should do.
For I do lack determination at the current moment.
And my perseverance have failed from failing to look at Jesus rather than the supposedly keepers (no one is perfect after all, I am not excused).
(oh I remember Ravi Zacharias said Christianity ain't bad but it gained bad publicity because of its supposedly defenders. Or something like that)..

Oh well...
Basically, I you have faith you will be tested.
I have a little and even I am not spared. But I believe though that through testing one's faith can grow. I only hope my stubbornness won't wreck the process again and again.

p.s. pardon my poorly structured post, i am not particularly good at it and i just wanted to inject different thing altogether... anyways, im a future engineer not a novelist ^_^. hee...  ¶ 11:30 PM 2 comments

  Soccer craze + more Last night we, me and five other handsome guys (you guys know yourselves ryt?), went to WCP just to hang out.

we drank red wine courtesy of handsome Michael, and feasted on lays/ruffles chips courtesy of handsome Arthur, gelo and Nestor. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that handsome Mike got 3 awards..wootwoot! ur the man =)

neways, we also had a free show of lovers...One of which is a couple of guy looking creatures but apparently after some obvious interruptions to their mushy PDAs, we have confirmed that the other is a girl. hahah.. Good show ^_^ brought my vball and some rambutans too...And thanks the the ball flying towards the lovers we stopped speculating that those two (the lovers) are homos. kumenasai!

a bit later, we played with this funny looking "playground" thing, but apparently we couldn't possibly enjoy such boring game so we just used it as our volleyball net. haha... Fun ^_^, we keep on hitting firm standing trees around the place, good thing that some of my handsome companions didn't cut down those trees. Eventually, with the soccer craze going on, we tried to play soccer with the vball, and the playground stuff (heck I really don't know what those things are called) as goals (for 2 teams ofcourse). I really don't like playing soccer that much but last night I can't be bothered, was a bit lightened up by the red wine so I just get on with it. The game overall was pretty funny, it has been a long time since I laughed so hard that I just fall on the ground for laughing uncontrollably. I guess it escalated to that partly because of the wine and for the fact that we are all amateurs (some like handsome Mike know a bit about it but he couldn't have been serious with amateurs!)...If you ask me, I myt have been the worst...Just leaning on posts to support my body from laughing while the handsome guys are more or less ready to start another round of amateur play ^_^.Good laugh really and it brightened up my mood. IF NOT FOR THE RAIN THOUGH, I COULD HAVE died from laughing. ;P

We ran to MacD and had some mcD supper! I had dinner in McD so imagine how unappetizing eating the same stuff, good thing though that handsome Michael and I bought this hershey tasting cake. ^_^. We chatted funny and interesting stuff, we watched soccer as well (half of it) and also observing girls who cling to their boylets trying to be interested with soccer.hahaha. you can sense some pretension and disinterest. (are those the appropriate words for them?? hmm...)

walked back at around 4, and reach at around 4:40; we were all dead tired, but it was really good fun (slept at 5 am though :P). THANKS HANDSOME GUYS!

as for today, I had lunch from subway at 4 pm! went there at around 2:30 and to my disappointment they ran out of bread! Good thing Harish was patient enough with me because I seriously don't want to have lunch in McD. I can't be bothered with waiting as long as I get a more or less decent meal. CHEAP! you get 20% discount for being a student ^_^. harish paid 2.75 for a foot long vegetarian sandwich. I paid 5.50 for a turkey meal (with chips and drinks)...not bad =)

met Nina as well a good friend of Rohit who came back from NOC. she wanted to meet me then. I don't know her as much but it seems like she's a nice person =). Chatting with them was a nice way of waiting for the subway bread to get replenished!.... MY GOSH, there are so many Indians in OLD KR!...like world domination^_^.

P.S.
hmmm... Just want to share to some girls with so much egos, don't try to assume that those guys who seem to be close with you have a crush on you (or like you romantically or whatever of some sort). Really, you won't enjoy their company if you let prejudice get you first. Guys are fun to hang out with just like girls but it is in a different dimension in some way (geez, i can't find the right description for it). Me ^_^ have been hanging out with guys for some time now (inclusive of night out with bf and his friend/s too). Fun I should say!

waaa... somehow Im thankful I have a bf because at least guys wouldn't feel uncomfortable hanging out with me for thinking i myt have a crush on them....hahaha... but I guess for everybody's info, I might have! LOL LOL LOL..just kidding... haha... but I realized it is nonsense to have such sort of mindset. So what? if you want to enjoy friendship then just let it be ryt? i believe that even if your good friend admitted he likes you and yet he is not ur type, just tell him that u guys remain as friends and nothing like that should be a roadblock in ur friendship; that I guess is what genuine friendship is. You won't die for being liked and most probably ur friend won't harass you for it. Avoidance could sever friendship and I guess it is an unwise thing to do. same thing with guys. Ego could not possibly help you live more than your friends!

ooops why am I such a long winded girl again? brr...  ¶ 4:55 PM 3 comments

  thousand miles haize...
i can relate so much with this song...hahahah

thanks michael.
but somehow I want to change some stanzas. but nevermind...

A Thousand Miles - Intro

Making my way down town
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you... tonight

It's always times like these
When I think of you
And I wonder
If you ever think of me

Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong
Living in
Your precious memory

Cause I need you
And I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall
Into the sky
Do you think time
Would pass me by,oh
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles

If I could just see you... tonight

And I, I don't wanna let you know
I, I drown in your memory
I,I don't wanna let this go
I, I've fallen...

Making my way down town
Waking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound

Staring blankly ahead
Making my way
Making a way
Through the crowd

And I still need you
And I still miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time, would pass us by
Cause you kow I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...


If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by
Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
If I could just hold you... tonight  ¶ 9:28 PM 0 comments

  eating words and etc if there was one person i know who is anti-romantic relationship, that person would be me.

but here i am, sitting in front of my computer recalling many other words I've eaten.

i wanted to be an independent and successful woman. (me before). this is because of a traumatic event before which led me to have such paradigm. leaving that aside and reflecting about all my actions, i have been stubborn and irresponsible... I also have not realized how bitter eating words is.

-----------------------

there's someone out there who never had the time to email me at least a word telling that that someone is doing fine. i felt that it was irresponsible and it disappointed me big time. as for me, even if it's my sister's wedding and I am sensitive enough to know and remember that I must send some message to someone I would take a time off to do that, at least some 30 minutes stealthly disappearing and appearing again..somehow. IT'S NOT THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TIME, YOU JUST DON'T WANT/BOTHER TO MAKE TIME. Everyone can make time for anything. what im telling is: this is similar to like telling your family that you are going to have a night out with your friends even if u are already out with them just to inform them that you are ok. say...a courtesy call or somewhat like that.

but wtheck, i could not possibly expect that from everyone.
but i do not like the idea of persevering either; i am way too impatient for that.

  ...missing someone... I MISS HIM ALREADY!

--sentiments--

1. now I understand lovers who do PDA...haha... but you see it is not like they wanted to flaunt or anything, they actually don't give a damn on any other thing in their vicinity rather than the presence of that someone and the gladness of seeing each other... I used to be one of those myopic people who are trully aghasted with couples who does PDA, now it has backfired. Admittedly, we did PDA in the airport and uhm... I had to run for cover. I guess I was running away from the incriminating me. =/

2. when you love someone, definitely he is included in the miss list.

3. I AM TERRIBLE AT GOODBYES. I personally don't like it. Back then, when somebody is going away for good or for a long time, I tend to dissociate myself from the person. That's my only way of saving myself from missing that person too much defense mechanism per se. Maybe I'm afraid of losing relationships due to distance. or maybe something else.hmmm... But that was before... This time I tried something different, I tried spending good time with the person. and guess what? Im missing him already! waaa.... if I do this with all the other people I'm gonna miss a whole bunch! Actually, I missed Aditi too, and Charlene Escalicas, and Ate Love, and Kuya Ken (I did cry when I left home last time)... It is not fun to miss people ya know! Not at all... but somehow, somewhere you feel this tiny gladness because you spend some extra nice time with the people you care for before they leave (or I/you leave). A sense of proper goodbye, a good memory for them to carry to their destination (or mine/our) like a piece of chocolate snack whenever they (I/we) feel lonely wherever they (I/we) may be... hmm... I don't know much really. Like I said earlier, I am terrible at goodbyes--> most of the time. So uhm, I can't say things that make much sense!

4. It is 3 am already! I can't sleep... missing someone...missing someone... gosh Im playing that music for 48000 times already =/  ¶ 2:59 AM 0 comments

  lonely is da nyt Rohit is currently on his flight to India.

May the Lord protect his flight and keep him (and everyone else in that plane) safe.

I just reached KE (around 1 am) from the airport. Harish and I took the train from airport to tanah merah and took the endless bus 14 to NUS. But it was fun, as usual, we were talking about anime, and I daresay Harish is good at starting up conversations. haha... well that's because he knows I like anime, and he knows something about it (gosh I was talking like 3/4 the time!). Sorry Rohit...hehe maybe I should make Rohit watch the short short animes so at least he wouldn't be left out. =). Apparently he, my Rohit, is also my suppressor, the one who gives me the reality check for overwatching anime and neglecting commitments.... sigh.... sorry for that...

Im missing Korsi... ^_^ and Im currently missing Rohit. huhu...

Im alone in the room. I understand the lonely days...those are the days when I get so much time to make long blogs and change my blog settings. On other days, I just want to spend time with Rohit (barely since 3/5 of the day Im at work), also with his friends (a.k.a. Harish and company) sometimes just want to stay in the room and have some chat with Korinna. There are days when I just chat with Michael, and there are times I go to PGP and if chance permits, chat with seniors. =) But ya know, even though it's summer time, I don't have the time to do all the things I wanted, maybe I just lack time management. I wanted to spend time with my cousin, read many pocketbooks, exercise regularly, do my daily bible reading (been delayed for 2.5 months!), keep my part of the double room clean, wash every Saturdays, do something about my computer's deteriorating speed and a whole lot of things! Come to think of it, those things don't even require higher level skills but still I couldn't do them! It reminds me of tne time I was wishing that a day was composed of 30 hours, 8 hours work and more for sleep... but then I took it back... Saying 30 hours per day makes the waiting so long for school term to be over...hehe.

well that's it for the day... i just thought of washing my utensils which are 1 day overdue. ooops... =D

  father's day hmmm...

physically speaking I do not have a father.

but I do have. one is up there and one is ... i do not know. since today is a day to commemorate fathers, i abhor myself for not going to church and worshipping my father up there who was always there for me. So bad of a child. But at least this I can do for him and for the one somewhere.

Father in heaven is a merciful one. I'm scared at Him sometimes and sometimes I just overlook him especially when I'm overly engrossed with the world. Yet, He still loves me and is still trying to bring me back to Him until now. He provides what I need like love, support, finance, mercy=== grace. I've been not a good girl but I know He loves me and I can always hold on to His love, especially when I'm being disciplined. A lot of things has been going through in my family and me being a quite irresponsible lad as I am right now both as a Christian and a student but He still is there. I am unworthy of His love but I cannot live without it either. He has been my primary father since my dad died. And you know, whenever I feel insecure, I just tell myself that "your Father in heaven is a father to the fatherless. He for sure, will take care of you just hold on to Him and try to obey Him... you may be a bad girl sometimes but He loves you so much that He will discipline you. Just hold on to Him and you will be okay." I do appreciate my Father in heaven although my bare eyes have not seen Him, and Jesus, my father and brother and friend always sends my regards to Father...Since I will only be called a son through my JC. Whom, lately, I took for granted. JC who looks over me and over us all the time, and whose unfailing love keeps on setting me acceptable before the Father...But you know... Im scared... Im scared because Im not worthy at all, but I do rejoice for His love, for His mercy that keeps me alive... what can a sinful person like me be without Him???

and for papa Cyrus. my dear papa. You know, even I have not said this before you died and even if what happened long ago happened, papa, your memories will linger in my head. Your love, your warm hugs, your discipline, and that happy look of your face whenever you see us. I remember the days when you buy the tasty chocolate and the milk drink for us to enjoy, and we wait at the gate for the delivery man to drop by. I remember the afternoons when you just squat in front of the door, opening your arms wide while we open it as we get back from school and get a big tight hug from you as well as the times when we just take the backdoor and see your funny looking pose. hehe. I remember the late nights when you get back from work with ice cream, durian, etc as treat and we go running to you for a hug and then grabbing our treat. And also the late nights when while waiting we just sleep in the sofa, and we get magically transfered to our bed tucked in our nice little blankets. I remember the birthdays that became feasts. You take time to roast a chicken for me (such a good cook i daresay), inviting your friends over, and taking an effort to set a little feast for us with that excited and happy mood of yours. I will never forget also how you celebrated Kim's birthday when she was in her grade 1 days, you gate crashed the class, brought loads of snack to celebrate little Kimmy's birthday. It was a total surprise and I just wanted to run and hug you then and there. I will never forget how you treasure us despite the lack of resources, you are the best. I will never forget your disciplines too, and how you explain why you have to. You discipline us because you love us and you want us to become better individuals, the happiness of a father. Papa, i have a lot to thank you for but I guess I will save that for later...hehe... I thank God I had a father like you despite the trials and all that. I wish I could tell you this in person...

Papa, I think I am stronger now. I am not much of a crybaby anymore. Look, I am in singapore already and I've grown. I also have a boyfriend now. Too bad though I don't know whether you approve of him or not. You have been always proud of us papa, and I am proud of you. For the twelve years of my life, you have been remarkable. There may have been many ups and downs but your love is always there. Whenever I look at the past, I look at the happy times. I indeed have failed to appreciate you as much before but papa you will always be in my heart. You have been great. And I know you were sorry in your last days but none of them I keep. I know that even in your last breath you thought of us. Before you left, you looked for us. I'm sorry I wasn't there, I couldn't. But I guess you know now why the Lord allowed such things to happen even if I don't. I will try to grant your last request, I will papa. I will. This little girl with a forehead like yours will grant your desire. ^_^.haha... well, i look more like you they say...LOL. I LOVE YOU!

  rainy weather one... it's been raining for the past few days and guess what? since Rohit's roommate flew off to Mauritius, I have been sleeping in his single double room. (two beds that is)

well, it is not that I really intend to sleep there and all that but whenever we chat, I lie down in his bed and eventually, in the middle of the conversation I fall asleep. before Mr. Darwin Mauritius was there, Rohit would wake me up saying I must not sleep there even if I insist in sleeping there because I'm in the middle of sleeping (think about being insensitive to Mr. Darwin!). I wake up anyway and walk back pissed because my sleep was disturbed. well, not that pissed...Just feeling bad because I had to walk back :P. But nowadays, when I fall asleep in the middle of conversation, he doesn't wake me up! I end up sleeping there and had to wake up and rush to room in the morning! =(... and Korinna ends up sleeping alone in the double room... =(...errr...last night I told myself to come back late to KE, but as usual, I can't resist sleeping when I'm in the middle of it.

currently, Mr. Indian boy and I have some problems, but anyways, I hate seeing things unsettled and hopefully the problems will be solved between us. oh God... =(
___

i wonder, Rohit's friends must have thought that something already happened between us. Well, I'm a virgin! Believe it or not it doesn't really matter to me what others think since I know what the truth is. Rohit's friends must have thought gazillions of times that something happened between us. sorry to say but their "thoughting" is wrong =P.

what's Rohit got to do with rainy weather? go figure. it is an easy one.

  banana is good for you Filipinos generally don't place banana as their favorite fruit... For one, it is commonly eaten, and Philippines has a lot of bananas that people got tired of the taste and they don't appreciate the fruit as much!

But anyways, banana is good good good! here are some things you can get from eating bananas:
1. from a forward:

THE BANANA

Never, put your banana in the refrigerator!!!

This is interesting. After reading this, you'll never look at a banana in the same way again.
Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit. It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.
Depression:
According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.
PMS:
Forget the pills - eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.
Anemia:
High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.
Blood Pressure:
This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.
Brain Power:
200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.
Constipation:
High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.
Hangovers:
One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.
Heartburn:
Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.
Morning Sickness:
Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.
Mosquito bites:
Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.
Nerves:
Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.
Overweight and at work?
Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every two hours to keep levels steady.
Ulcers:
The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress inover-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.
Temperature control:
Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD):
Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer tryptophan.
Smoking:
Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.
Stress:
Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.
Strokes:
According to research in "The New England Journal of Medicine, "eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!
Warts:
Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!
So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say, "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

2. Banana has Magnesium, Manganese and Potassium which are all good for our skin and hair!
lack of these would obviously result to disorders...

3. cheap but filling ;). can be found anywhere as well. =)
and i mean, when you speak of brain boosters, for dimwits like me, I need a daily supply! hurhur ;)


I would love banana from now on *wink wink*

pasensya na michael, it's just that bananas are healthy and they can taste good when you know how to find a good one. :D
besides, it is healthy yeah? and if you don't want to have a frail body, eat healthily! :D.
It is what you eat that kills you...--> according to my mom's friends... and I guess I can't agree any less. Bad hair, bad skin, and everything physically bad are just manifestations of what our body lacks... and even worse, even those killer diseases are caused by lack of body immunity, all these CAN be due to lack of raw materials to produce those (i learned from biochem that there are many necessary amino acids, and others that are not produced by the body and we must obtain them from what we eat.)

  friendsters and x-men there I added all the Cainta people who are coming soon here in Spore.friendster!!!!!!

^_^

X-men! cool... with all the sound effects and visual effects. cool to watch in the cinema. not worth watching through piracy and even DVDs (unless you have a cool big flat screen TV with great stereo/woofer/whatever sound machines!) seriously! and for me, it has more adventure and more story and more satisfaction-after-watching compared to MI3 and da vinci...well at least I was high in the end... the ending was not what I wanted but hey, I didn't expect anything! like spidey man, they changed the original story and made it rather exciting and interesting. I give X-men a 4/5 rating...-1 because they killed and changed the image of my fave character =(...

thanks Rohit for the free movie =).

something's going on with friendster...they must be doing some maintenance =)  ¶ 1:23 AM 0 comments
