Batman Begins-do I too?

"It's not what's underneath but what you do that defines who you are." - Batman Begins.

Rather contradictory to the final line of my previous post dated 16/5/2005.(Purpose-ful update)- the quote by Rick Warren.

Sometimes being a Christian may get one so puffed up and self-righteous inside that nothing shows on the outside. Things get internalized too much and we think we are alright...infact, the best man can be and therefore see no need for improvement. We think we have all the answers and maturity to get on with life. Cynicism sets in and unwittingly, we close doors to ideas, advice, and worst of all, people. ~people whom we are to reach? Ah, the irony.

So which quote holds more weight? I'm thinking the former. Or is it unfair to compare the two somehow?

"Can I be somebody
Not what they want me to be
Just a pale reflection
Of what You want me to be

I know one day I will be free
My cynical clothing will fall from me
Flying high in the blink of an eye
Mezzamorphisy. " - taken from Metamorphis by Delirious?

On a differrent note, Pizza Hut has finally come up with an offer to rival Domino's "Buy 1 free 1" Gold card offer. Hopefully, it'll be here to stay. My Domino monthly rituals can finally (hopefully) be over.

For the uninitiated, my family are regular patrons of Domino's...we utilize the Gold Card every month. It's killing me but i don't have much say in it. I prefer Pizza Hut's pizzas but my whining always falls on deaf ears just because Domino's is more economical. Hopefully things will change now. :P

Reuben Morgan worship event

The worship event with Reuben Morgan was exactly what it proposed to be- a worship event. Guess i had the wrong idea about it being a sort of promotional concert for his debut solo album. Why, they weren't even selling it (the album) at the event. They sold other merchandise tho' that contributed to the Sun Child Project - a missions endeavour of Five Lines which supports 3rd world development through literacy programs and orphanages, community work in Australia and church planting. Five Lines was initiated by Reuben himself so expect to find details of his progress/tour at the Five Lines website as well.

Currently listening:
World Through Your Eyes
Reuben Morgan

See details


Managed to peek in on their practice session before the concert and grab a few pics with the band and some autographs before the masses mobbed them that night. Ah, the benefits of being on the AV team. =P Considered myself lucky as Reuben did not immediately give out his autograph after the concert. He was simply shut in a separate room securely guarded by Canaanland(the organizers) staff. Apparently he was tired. Still speculating on this...not sure whether the Canaanland people were trying to isolate him for some inexplicable reason/he was really tired/he didn't like the whole celebrity thing. On the contrary, his band members freely gave their autographs & pics. Guess they needed the publicity more than Reuben did. haha.

Ben Fielding, the electric guitarist was somehow excluded from being acknowleged on the album though he did contribute to it. He was complaning about this when i got his autograph. lol.

Reuben uses a Rickenbacker electric and Martin acoustic guitar.
