Gee, it's a shame that people would steal from other people...especially something that has little value in real, but significant value to the person...for example...Lauren Burns, the 49kg Tae Kwon Do gold medalist had her house ransacked and her medal stolen <more here>...geez...at the National Young Leaders Day she was talking to the assembled masses, and she provided us with a short Tae Kwon Do demonstration and passed the said medal around...she was an interesting person to listen to nonetheless...
Damn, I'm beginning to hate Erika...I was talking to her this morning, and she was like...Oh, I can't talk for long, my boyfriend is in bed waiting for me...thanks babe...I REALLY NEEDED TO KNOW THAT...hmm...the words of Titus are coming to me..."If you love something enough, set it free. If it comes back, it isn't worthy of you. If it doesn't, then it's just like all your other miserable relationships"...ARRRGH!!!
Who Is The Black Chinaman?
- Nick
- Kuala Belait, Brunei
- Saving someone's life is like falling in love. The best drug in the world. For days, sometimes weeks afterwards, you walk the streets, making infinite whatever you see. Once, for a few weeks, I couldn't feel the earth - everything I touched became lighter. Horns played in my shoes. Flowers fell from my pockets. You wonder if you've become immortal, as if you've saved your own life as well. God has passed through you. Why deny it, that for a moment there - why deny that for a moment there, God was you? I realised that my training was useful in less than ten percent of the calls, and saving lives was rarer than that. After a while, I grew to understand that my role was less about saving lives than about bearing witness. I was a grief mop. It was enough that I simply turned up. Living and working back in Brunei, after a 14 year absence... Also known as: Brunei, NASA, Bruise-Eye, Bru, Cheesecake, Nick, BruNick, BruMedNick, Two Step etc etc etc
