Ben & Jerry's Free Cone Day is an annual event, held in late April or early May, in which Ben and Jerry's scoop shops give out free ice cream cones all day. Over one million free cones are given away each year. Charitable organizations are often present at the stores each year and enjoy a significant amount of fundraising success.

The first Free Cone Day was held on May 5, 1979. It was done by Ben and Jerry as a customer and staff appreciation event for the one year anniversary of their ice cream store's opening, and has continued ever since.

30th annual Free Cone day is Tuesday, April 29th

do it!


Ben & Jerry's was one of the first ice cream makers to label their ice creams as free of these rBST hormones. However, some states are now trying to BAN the labeling saying that it implies that hormone-free milk is safer than milk that comes from cows that have been injected with chemicals that aren't even approved in other countries.

"guys hate you"
"no they dont, im short and fat"
-

:D
now, thats a real honest comment. :D

Anyway,
was on the bus just now, when I was really inspired to blog this down.
About God is real.

God is real.
He is like the morning sun, that never fail to rise.
He is like Mr Amazing, nothing is impossible
He is like the Hope of the second. seek Him and He will answer you.

I dont know how to say, but my God is a God that really puts me to rest.

Easter is coming ,this easter i'll be a 4th yr Christian. 4 years, not long not short. Living Daily, Walking under His shadow.
I dont know about you, though my God is intangible, but I feel that I know Him and I love Him more and more each day.
Really like the bible say, "Call to Me and I will answer you"

I am being affirmed everyday that things are in His control.
That I dont have to struggle or worry. Yes I do complain sometimes, thats one thing that I have to change.
If I have a problem. all I have to do is to stand and walk in His righteousness, lift up the problem to Him, and He will give me a God answer.

Because there is no problem that has been issued to me that I cant overcome with Him. Cos He knows where I stand, who I am. How i am today. How I can be improved and shaped for tomorrow.

My God is a good God.
Hows yours?

Jer 33:3 Call to me and I will answer you, and show you things, which you know not.

hmm... how do I show you how real He is? :)

Love,
Amanda

Was just going through some thoughts when I got reminded of how one of the brother's reaction when I asked him to join me for a movie.
No I seriously have no extra thoughts about him, its just to catch up, and me being me am too lazy to make further arrangement for other people to join us.

and of course, him being a gentleman raised the idea of getting others to join us.
So well :)
He's not free these days anyway, by the time, he is available, think the movie will be over le.

That really inspired me actually.

and the influx of guys as relief and contract teachers. :)
mind you they are quite cute and good looking, maybe a little lacking in the lines of build ba.

But I thought, ya, I think I need to surround myself with more guys.
Really just be alot more open to other guys, other social circles rather than being in the few that I am currently now am.

Guess that would be a good test of faith ba.
Having the multitudes to choose from, and yet to stick to my faith.

Was walking home with dinner for me and my sister when it came onto me.
That if I have to choose between a non-believer and the least of all Christian, I think I'll choose the least of all Christian.

Guess its too early to say, cos of my age.
and hey, who says that a non-believer cannot be converted into a believer and much more be one that is on fire for God?

Well, not now :)
But I certainly want to go oversea and open up my eyes.
Walk into the furnace of fire and still be in God's control :)

Was just talking to my friend who was listening to Sy Roger's interview. 101 question on Sex. him coming from a homosexual background and as a counselor to many being in the position to answer the questions. :D

Wat a coincident to what I did today.
I was at a talk, folding papers, tearing them into smaller pieces like these...



When I notice some of the pieces...







put them together in random order and guess what i get?







or simply put



Hmm... its interesting how that 3 words can be so thought provocative.

Anyway, as Sy Rogers say: "Sex in the right context can bring happiness and life"

So we shall leave it as it is :)

24th Feb

Hello~!

just to of uploading some pics before i loss all my readers.


First there was Steamboat with cellgroup



Then there was...

guess where I went?




Ballroom at Fullerton Hotel. :)
Dinner is served individually, different from the normal Wedding dinner tradition.

There was Home visits, :)
To my cousins,


who drew this ridiculously cute pig...


and there was Hong BAo River visit,

Sure didnt know Qingming Jie is called All Souls Day, :) you know the visit Cemetery season?

It was with my people from choir :)


There was teaching of animals in class,
Guess what animal is this


and how about this?

look for that thing near the eyes....
Its a Grasshopper. Yup, a Mighty big one.

and guess what this is:

Look for the wierd leaves on the left of the hanging branch of leaves...
Its an atlas moth that has evolved from the huge catepillars previously.



Lecture hall re-visited...


Lecture notes and readings of course



Finally thats the moon on the morning, 5.57am after the overnight prayer meeting.

pretty crazy... first there was teaching, then there was cellgroup praise and worship, then there was prayer meeting from 11pm to 5am

and the pretty girl on our night of Grease the Musical.


Weak body... With virus spreading in school and the non-stop action, no wonder I fell ill.
*pout*

was just sending out sms to encourage people and a friend of my that I look up to actually said no need to send "such" sms.
Was a little caught by it. but well. :)

Was just looking at the keyboardist during the Prayer meeting.
That alot of times, its the keyboardist playing that kept us in the Holies of the Holies.
That it is the keyboardist role to flow with the Spirit.

But what if, comes a leader who well, break flow a little and instructs the keyboardist to play stronger?
what should the keyboardist do?

Should the keyboardist follow suit?

Then I got reminded.
Obedience

What do you think?

Such a thin line isnt it?

Watched "P/S: I Love You" the day before. So nice~!~!~!
The kind of love being shared... *so sweet*

and its irritating how guys can be big size and well build and girls on the other hand would look better being slim and tall.

*pout*

anyway~

Amanda

L-O-V-E

Ohhh now i know why it was in the mood of love...
:D
Cos VDay is around the corner,
in-fact, its Today!
:D

Anyway, was just reading Chicken Soup, then tot it be good to post up one of the stories. :) so here goes:

-
If God Had an Eraser

If God had an eraser,
What would He erase away?
Would He erase the clouds,
And make the sun shine every day?
Would He erase oppression?
Would He choose to make us free?
Would He rid the world of wars,
Of pain and poverty?
Would ugliness and ignorance,
Be among the first to go?
Would we all be beautiful,
And know all there was to know?
Would He eliminate our anger,
Our pettiness and greed?
Would He grant us all our wishes,
And fulfill our every need?
Would He choose to rub out sadness,
So we'd never need to cry?
Would He eradicate all illness,
So we'd never need to die?
Would He erase anxiety,
Our fears and worries too?
Would He rid the world of suffering,
Or leave that for us to do?
-

Think for some of us, we would have already known the answer from the very beginning.

Guess thats the beauty of it.
He didnt erase all that that we might grow through it,
He didnt erase that we may make a difference in the lifes.

Its not about Him doing it personally,
But its about Him doing it through us.

:)

That trials and tribulation may come,
Thousands may rise up against us from our left and right, :)
Where is your focus? Thats the question. :)
Do you believe that He has already pre-plan us to go through it and become even stronger after it?

Who are you?
You are more than a conqueror through Him who loves us.
If you feel you cant make it through, then pray and ask for His mercy grace and strength.

Know His heart and truly it'll be like Footprints in the sand.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

How to memorize the scripture above? Simple, understand it.
He came that we may receive grace to be reconcile right? So we can attempt to remember it that way, "grace of the Lord Jesus Christ" God is love. so its "the love of God" He left that we may have the Helper to always be with us right? thats why its "communion of the Holy Spirit" :D

oki, thats about all for now,
Happy Vday everyone!!!

Be Bless
Love,
Amanda

In the mood

Greetings to you no matter where you are tuning (reading) from.
This is DJ Amanda bringing to you a tune or two on the topic of the day. Love

It always begin with the question "What's Luv?" (Fat Joe Ft Ja-Rule), thats when people would perhaps invite you on board and do a little "Crusin'" (Gwyneth Paltrow & Huey Lewis) cos thats where some say Love begins.

Those were the times when people would call each other their "Dearest" (Ayumi Hamasaki), spending the nights "Dreaming of You" (Selena) saying that they care not about the person on the left, the person on the right, what their parents say or what the friends say "As Long As You Love Me" (Backstreet Boys). "Duo Ku Dou Yuan Yi" (Jin Chen Wu aka Takeshi) that no matter how hard it is, they will "Say A Little Prayer" (My Best Friend's Wedding's Cast) for you as a promise. That all they ever wanted is to "Grow Old With You" (Adam Sandler - Wedding Singer Soundtrack).

In the hard times, when the guy couldnt comprehend whats on the girls mind, or when girls simply couldnt bring it across the question always pop: "How Do You Want Me To Love You?" (911)! That really all that they ask is to be "Close To You" (Carpenters). "What Can I Do"( The Corrs) to make him understand - Oh what a familiar phrase to the best friends that's around.

And yet when the occasion calls for the declaration will always come, that I want to be "At The Beginning With You" (Richard Marx & Donna Lewis). Even times when we thought they did something real bad the faithful one will always say, "I Will Still Love You" (Britney Spears & Don Philip)

Its really sweet when its truly made in "Heaven" (DJ Sammy & Yanou). Singing to you that "Underneath your clothes" (Shakira) theres an endless story...

hmm... the best part of it all, is waking up in the morning, "Coffee Tea or Me Wo Ai Ni" (Emil Chau & Tracy Su)

For Maximum Enjoyment, Click the Play button on the right where the Imeen player is. :D

I know I am lame. :D
Thats why the Lord say the lame shall walk :X
and yes, these are all classics. :D

Love is patient, Love is kind, Love means slowly losing your mind. - 27 Dresses

This entry is inspired by a brother. We were just talking about relationship.

:)

Was just looking back at how I've been dealing with all those little likes I have on specific guys.
Realize that all these are really just a season and a time.

Its that period of time when these thoughts would flood your mind.
Just really make you want to do something about.
To really hang on to that liberty of confessing and loving a person so freely.

I feel thats really beautiful, cos all humans needs to love and be love.

I say that this phase is a phase that is extremely important for us to take hold of.

Turn it around and look at it this way.

I might be super crazy about this guy, he is reachable in realistic way, but just didnt approach.
Am i not able to lay my head down on the pillow and fall asleep?
Seriously... it wont cause me to die.

Indeed love is sweet, but all things needs maintainance. Even love.
Falling in love daily, consistently, with the same person that is.

So what I'm trying to say is, dont jump into a relationship at a tender age, in the height of emotions and feelings.

Take time off, its just a season.
Like Pastor preach, theres 4 level to the establishment of a relationship. First the Introduction, then the acquaintance, then the friends, and so finally being together as a commitment.

Choose one at a matured age. When both are establish and am able.

Whatever you feed will grow.
Whatever you starve will loss control over you.

Having said all this, go to sleep. If one life and you cant manage, need not say one life that has involvement with another.

Maybe you say im using too much brain, well, do not the heart do silly things that made us regret? :)



Be Bless
Love,
Amanda

?

I'm already in the next level, but am I embracing it?

*pout*

Amanda does not have a life...
and to think I was just blogging about it just now

*sob* *sob*

I took my medicine around 5+ 6,
came on to use the comp, blogged a little.
Tot I could take a nap and wake up and get ready for the movie.
Was saying that I needed to get a life.

Didnt know that it was a nap of no return...

Sms my friends around 7+ to ask for the timing, (was already on bed) replied at 9+ when I check back the sms .
I woke up at 12am!!!
after 6 missed calls.
My mom and my sis said they tried waking me up multiple times.
The only time I VAGUELY remember was my mom telling me and putting the hongbao underneath my pillow...

*sob* *sob*

Finally got awaken by the call, and it was 12am!!!!

Tao Yen!!!
and I was seriously looking forward to watching the show with them!

then again,
All things happened for the good of those who love him and are called according to His purpose.
Thank God there were more than just a few of us.

:D

its either the medication or my body got the better of me.

-_-"

nevermind! Amanda shall have a life!

SO soRRy Jing and Vincent!
SO SORRy!!!

update

CNY Eve!

I'm at home and I'm groggy again...

Anyway,
There is this kid in my class, always wanting to go home when he isnt exactly occupied.
Forever having stomach ache and leg pain,
Yesterday was the worst case ever.
Dealt with him in a really patient manner, and he answered me in a real rude way.
There and then I walk away.
SUper Mad!

A canteen stall holder was comforting him.
After a while i approach the auntie, telling her not to comfort him, the more we comfort him the more he will cry. Then the auntie replied me something that caught me.
"At home no love"
its just 4 simple words but that seriously got me thinking.

oki... at home no love...
What am I to do?
Its true that he cant go home in the middle of school as there is no one at home.
Still feel caught up by his rudeness, got to release him to the Lord.
Personally, I felt horribly hurt.
At home no love...

Hallelujah!

:)
shall blog about happy stuff then,
Was just changin the bed sheet. I took the wrong set and my mummy called me "ben" meaning not smart.

Immediately I replied, "Im not not smart I just didnt know"
"Wo bu shi ben zhi shi bu hui"

How true is it man. In so much so, its not because we are not smart thats why we do wrong things, its because we didnt know.

So be educated! :D
Hallelujah!

Its kind of like when I ask a question, then people give me a sarcastic answer, thats when I will reply them "I dont know thats why I ask"
So dont give people silly or sarcastic answer when they ask. If they really deserve it, then give them a proper answer after being sarcastic. :D

kk,
photos~

Remember I was saying I'm on ML that day,
guess what, the next day when I came back to work, the kids flood me with get well soon letters.


its 7 of them. :D
it wasnt a case of other teachers ask them to do one. must be because of the sudden cold I caught on friday...

Went marketing with mummy last night,
took candid shots with my mummy~


and today's chinese new year celebration~ didnt bother to bring my digi cam, just made do with my phone cam...


my school's chinese orchestra, Random shot.

The cutie that rep my class for the costume parade (by the def of chipmunk cheeks)


Him and his sister. *I know! Big eyes!*


Two of the other lovables in my class :)


Thats another 3


Yey! she won the contest!
Qns: Why do people wear red during chinese new year celebration? Besides bringing good luck

Ans: Its to scare the "Nian" monster away. :)

Qns: what do people do on the eve of chinese new year?

Ans: they take Reunion Dinner

and this sweet little guy is actually grown up enough to give me the balloon, I asked why not for his sister? He said she has enough balls to play with.
*so sweeT*

just as that little girl, she wants to give it to her brother. :)
I am so proud of them!

So there it sits, on my workdesk

-

Was just re-arranging back my pillows and what nots after changing the bedsheet.
Almost 1 month+ Im still loving these 2 huggables! Thanks 3/4!


-

when to watch 27 Dresses on Monday, yup, the day that I was on ML. Was motivated to watch the 1+ show, but missed it cos I was baking potato, then when to watch the 3+ show. $6~
oki la, not as nice as the other comedy romance movies that i've watched.



Going out to watch Ah Long Pte Ltd later, kind of like a young adult event.
Watching late night show, which effectively is the 2nd late night show I've ever watched.
Tot I could go one, then asked daddy, and daddy indirectly disallow.
then in the end still got my way through.

Its abit... dunno what to say, expecting the 11+ show, meaning I've to either take the night rider or a cab home.
On top of that the price of the movie ticket...
The unexpected CPF deduction from my salary this month...

nvm! I shall be wise with my spending!
I'll be letting myself down if I dont go tonight...
Simply because of the word "Life"

Shall pray real hard that I'll be alive tomorrow morning :D

kk, thats about all for now,

Be Bless
Love~
