Have you ever scrambled your mind so much that you started thinking straight again?


sometimes, the oddest thing that comes to my mind would give me clearest answer to my own befuddled mind...^_^

How do you feel about the phrase, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"?

hmmm...good question!

I think it had to do with conforming to society's norm and culture, and to blend in. I think people feared to be unique, because they will be looked down upon.

Not sure how this is being answered, but that's how I look at it! :)

Another take is that when you're in a strange country, ya better not look stupid! ^_^

Which facet of Gods love is most uncomprehensible?

from my own experience, it's God's unconditional love that is not grasped, or comprehended, because we measure love by our standards, not God's.

my most embarrassing moment?

hmmmm....

I can't remember some of them! but there is one that I'm sure I won't live it down.... ^_^

I was trying to fortify a stencil sheet with linseed oil, and I was attempting to boil it. Luckily, my dad happened to be there when he asked me what I was doing...I barely finished the sentence, when he grabbed the pot and ran out to to the garage. Never seen the guy run so fast in my life.

Shortly after, he told me that linseed oil doesn't need to be boiled~ it's already done, and had I tried to, I'd end up blowing up the house!

oh maaaan... :blush:

What is your most favorite activity to do with family?


when I lived with my folks long ago, I remembered having fun playing card games.

I don't have a family of my own, but when I visit friends, it's usually watching movies, board games, card games, or just visiting/chatting.

If I go out, it's movies, lunch, dinner, or just going to the beach to shop or walk around with a good friend.
