Whoo.. prelims are over! Haha. Well, at least for prelim 1. I guess i deserve a few days break. Before i continue grounding my head into those think textbooks being fed by silverfish. (Just joking)

Have been reading the national geographic magazine these few days. Flipped through some pages and realised that reading isn't that boring afterall. My interest in marine life was suddenly revived as i scanned through the magnificent pictures shot by Brian Skeery. The images he captured just shook me off my feet as I took my first look at one of the sea's magnificent fishes, the giant bluefin tuna. (sashimi lovers, you are in for a treat)

Of course things occuring on land were not missed out. The great canyon and spotted leopards. (Stealth hunters). After reading just a couple of pages, i was literally drawn into the world of marine life. The instinct of a ecologist suddenly sprang into my mind. The fact is, our earth is dying. In a few years time, there is a high possiblity of the elimination of resources on the earth. There might be even more drastic climate changes which will bring about more disasters which bring about the loss of human life. I don't really whats going in my mind, but all of the sudden, anxiety, fear, worry just pops out. Fear of what might become of this world

But deep down inside. A voice wishpers. "God will provide.. God will provide.. Don't worry". I know life as a christian involves what one calls 'radical faith'. But.. I just don't see how is reparation of the damage we incurred going to take place. Am i doubting his ability? Am not trusting him? Definitely not. But.. If our heavenly father is going to do something... Why aren't fish stocks replinishing? Why are people still dying from natural disasters? Why are people suffering from shortage of food? I guess i have asked too many whys. Maybe its just that my heart hasn't been fully entrusted to God's magnificence. Maybe I am still drawn closer to my flesh and blood. Not living life with an eternal perspective.

Nevertheless.. I still believe we have the responsiblity of protecting the earth that God made for us to live. We need to ensure there is sustainable devlopment, for future generations to live in. (that is if there is any.. haha. The sounds of trumpets? Lol.. just joking. Its up to him really.)
The earth is after all, his. You get my point yea?

Bleaugh.. forget about the topic. Haha.

Heres a basic freestyle that I took. Not exactly the professional ones you see on the net. Hope you guys enjoy it.
Love,
ash

Dude! WHAT THE HELL!

That was really bad la, I know you're just doing a laid back one, but at least cut out some parts that don't need to be shown. You can use the Windows movie maker.

The moves weren't that bad, just the lighting made it hard to see. Take another video man, and pass me the footage, I'll edit for you. You got the right moves, just the wrong presentation.

Moving the mat is kinda funny!
