There's a new site on the web that's dedicated to Neil now that he's left. I was just reading through the messages, and it's really touching. He's got fans from Israel, Belgium, Sweden, Italy and of course from here. Quite amazing how he can touch so many lives by being part of a band. I love him.
Wait... is that an earring in his right ear??

Just saw The Saint on TV. I remember watching it when it came out in the cinema, I liked it then, and I still like it now. And I just realised, hey, I've been to where they filmed Dr. Russell's speeches! The buildings looked familiar, and I knew it when I saw the gravel on the ground. It's pretty cool to look at something from such a perspective. Like, what if Hollywood made a movie in Singapore, that would be super cool. I'd be like, that's my home! I live there!
I wonder if I'm too harsh sometimes. On others. I always seem to impose my standards on them, even when I've never been through what they're talking about. Though I guess everyone's been hurt before and can apply the same logic to different situations. It's very easy to sit back and judge others for the things they do, or the things they can't do. But it's only because I imagine that I would have done the right thing had I been in their shoes. Even if I'd screwed up, I imagine I'd have been strong about it. Seriously I dunno, what
can you do when you make a mistake? You either weigh your options, right your wrongs, do whatever it is that you need to do. Or you just lie there and do nothing about it, get bitter, blame others and lose sight of what blessings you have. I realise I'm preaching, but why don't some people get it? Because they don't want to? Or what?
