The One With All the Missing.

Its been about 1 and a half months since I've gone in. To be honest, every time I book out, I honestly wish I could have a good hang-out dinner with my frens.

I miss alot of you alot.

I find myself feeling like I'm trying to grab at anything remotely related to my un-camp life everytime I book in. Sometimes I tear in the cab, sigh, and ask God for strength.

To be honest, I'm abit lost as I return to church. So much has changed. For me, time has become so precious. I need time for my family, and time for my friends, and time for God, and church. Its difficult with all the new things.

Please keep me in prayer, that I dun make any mistake that could cause me a confinement. Haha, miss you guys loads. Take care people.

The One With Superhero Trivia.

I've always loved Marvel and DC superhero cartoons. Each character has their own unique story, of how they got their super powers, and the implications of their powers. Kinda like how each of us have our own "back in my days" to tell our grandchildren at future family dinners.

Here are some superheros that I feel for the most.

Batman
Probably one of the most mysterious superhero there is. A man who, to me, is brilliantly powerful, yet equally vulnerable at the same time. This guy is THE MAN. By night, he is the Caped Crusader, the most brilliant man on earth, arguably the most dangerous super hero of all time. Has no powers, but is so intellectual. By day he is Bruce Wayne, rich, seemingly ignorant fool whose mind is all about hedonistic enjoyment.

Yet behind the mask (literally), here is a man who has had no childhood. A man so dedicated to his nightjob, he realises he can truly open up to few. A man who wears a mask not just to hide his identity, but to build up walls to protect himself. A man people misunderstand. Evil fears him; the police think he is a troublemaker. As Batman, he speaks in whispers to ensure his alter-ego is not betrayed.

A part of me actually feels sad for Batman.
Dunno what else to say la.

Rouge
Of X-men fame. Here is another hero who is pretty clammed up. Because of her powers, which work by physical contact with another person, she can't touch others without hurting them. And becos she fears bring harm to people, she draws away, and becomes slightly anti-social. Sorta like batman. Well the X-men: Evolution versioin of Rogue is like that at least.

No physical contact with others. That's really qute a tough thing.

Superman
Ahh Clark Kent. The nice homely superhero. Always going back to his roots, well. Sort of roots in the Kent Farm. I think he is the one superhero who has good family backing. Martha and Jonathan Kent in Smallville at least, are seen to be really guiding him. Which is something I hardly see in most superheros. Little is known about their families and all.

Ok granted, not many have an entire drama series played by real-life people, instead of drawings. But Superman is like the hero with a homely feel, to me. Plus he is good friends with Batman. That's good enough reason to like him.

Wonderwoman
Diana is probably the most famous female superheroine. One of my favourite. Yes yes, partly cos Batman in JL: The animated series has a thing for her. Haha, but I like her style. And the fact that she's so lady-like, yet she fights the dark side at the same time.

Grace, beauty, and power and strength all in the right mix.

Many of these superheros have some sad story behind the power and all. In reality, our lives are also the same. Everyone has some kind of sad story, sad past. Sometimes we laugh it off as we talk about -- it's a stepping stone that brought us where we are now. Other times, we choke as we relate it. Other times we get frustrated. Sometimes, we dun even reach the end, becos we dun wanna talk about it.

Nice to know, throughout all of these life-stories, one Superhero has always been there watching over us. The One who was so misunderstood, and all alone, many many many years ago today. Yet He went through it, to save the victims from certain death.

Anyways, its true you know, what Ben Parker said, "With great power, comes great responsibility."

"To whom much is given, much is required."
