In Singapore

Since moving to Singapore, my days havent been half as bad. In fact, I actually like going to class, because there is a certain "motivation".

Yeah there were times when I took the wrong bas and met some lousy taxi drivers, some not so nice experiences, but the "motivation" was good enough for me.

Other than that, I have phobia for relationships and I really hope that the phobia keeps me safe. Because from my relationships, I know that there is only hurt and regret. So, I better control myself and keep my distance.

Brb, not Goodbye

Im leaving this place with a heavy heart. The place that I have grown up in, the place that I had known my whole life, the place that I had loved so much. The place where everyone I know lives, the place where everyone I love and treasure lives in.

Even with all the farewells, with all the hugs and wishes I receive. I dont really feel like talking, because in my heart, Im just counting my days until I leave. I dont really feel like talking, because in my heart, I dont really feel like Im leaving.

Everything is gonna be like a brb, not a goodbye. I'll be back in 5 years, its a promise!

The Prodigal Son

Luke 15:11-32 (New International Version)

The Parable of the Lost Son

¹¹Jesus continued: "There was a man who had two sons. ¹²The younger one said to his father, 'Father, give me my share of the estate.' So he divided his property between them.

¹³"Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. ¹⁴After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. ¹⁵So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. ¹⁶He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

¹⁷"When he came to his senses, he said, 'How many of my father's hired men have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! ¹⁸I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. ¹⁹I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired men.'²⁰So he got up and went to his father.
"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

²¹"The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.

²²"But the father said to his servants, 'Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet.²³Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let's have a feast and celebrate. ²⁴For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' So they began to celebrate.

²⁵"Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. ²⁶So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. ²⁷'Your brother has come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.'

²⁸"The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. ²⁹But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. ³⁰But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!'

³¹" 'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. ³²But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' "
