You know what they say, if you don't live your life on the edge then you are taking too much space.

Because, because, because

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings Munchkins

Aug 12 is the 71st Anniversary of Wizard of Oz. While a lot of people would always connect the song 'Somewhere over the rainbow' with this show, while my personal fave is still the part they are singing 'We are off to see the wizard because,because, because!'

another thing is the muchkins do remind me of the oompa loompas from anotehr show...hmm though the oompa loompa songs did stuck in my brain for a while.

Back then i always thought that wizard of oz is about home, courage, heart and reason.NOw, my opinion is that the show is about how your brain can mess you up - with icing on top.

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain

Systematic Eating

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings Systematic Eating

Human is a creature of habit. And some humans take that to extent in terms of their eating habit - i'm part of that group. Apparently this syndrome is called 'Systematic Eating' - to be able to eat the same thing again - daily. The female cast of friend have been eating cobbs salad for 10 years, Bernie madoff always have a salmon cottage cheese bagel for lunch

As for me, it's always milk in the morning and oatmeal/Cereal.
The only time my eating habit changes is when i travel, i obviously will not make a fuss that i want an oatmeal in my accomodation.

While some people who like variety in food they eat, i am totally opposite. I can eat the same thing day by day by day. I would say probably i lack imagination of planning my weekly menu and i'm probably stingy when i do my groceries

amazing grace

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings Amazing Grace

I was in my late twenties when i finally heard this song. I did see this on some hymnal songs in church, but never actually heard it being sung. To top it all, i stumble on it only because one of the char in the anime i was watching was singing it (Fuji - Tennis Oujisama)



It became an instant hit for me and the song has been a mainstay in my ipod for a long time.

it took another 4 years for me to discove the beauty of this song. Again. thru an anime, Detective Conan. This song has been a recurrent theme in the Conan's specials - and while watching the anime, i realized why i like this song. Amazing grace is a song of forgiveness and hearing it somehow warms my heart.

At my age, where i have done alot of faults and many also hurted me, this song keeps me going.



Amazing grace! How sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind, but now I see.

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils, and snares,
We have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures.

Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.

Recruit a friend

Faceblogging

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings Faceblogging

i started blogging again, because i become wary of updating my facebook account.

I'm a known hermit in my circle of friends. Often time because i'm too shy/embarassed to share my thoughts, other times i'm just grumpy, then there are times i just want to lie low.

i used to love updating my fb: one liner status update (brilliant for someone like me who sucks at writting) them upload photos and drop some comments on your friends
Then suddenly i have too many "friends" , then the snooping, then the talks about securities... facebooking just snowballed into a huge tedious task.

This is not to say, FB ruined my social life or am gonna delete my account - but i just realized i cannot do 2hours a day to update my fb, so now i manage to curb it and perhaps the good side is am back to blogging.

Disclaimer: my idea of blogging can also mean updating my site with a one-liner

ah anyway, we'll see how things go:)

ByeBye OneManga :(

Murmurs Mumblings - My Thoughts conversation with myself, rants, and more mumblings And another one bites the dust

And another one bites the dust :(

onemanga.com is closing. Read it more here

i guess with the economy faltering, everyone is just trying to squeeze money on consumers.

i do buy licensed mangas, and i still think closing this site is a big mistake. It's because of this site, i got to discover new titles and eventually buy them. The publishers have to admit that sometimes translators from this site are better than theirs. In fact when there is something i dont understand on my hardcopy of manga i have to go here for doublechecking.

Anyway, to the Onemanga staff, all the contributingtranslators and contributing scanslators, i salute you all and cheers for all the hardwork! This will all come back to you in a good way.
