Man on a Mission, with a Machinegun, eating Marshmallows

PSYLOCKE, Real Name: Betsy Braddock
Elizabeth Braddock is from the United Kingdom where her brother is a well-known super hero. Apparently both of the Braddock siblings inherited their talents from their father, who was from another dimension known as Otherworld.
Betsy was originally a very powerful telepath--but then a bizarre turn of events changed her life forever. Her life force was transferred to the body of an assassin while the assassin was transferred to her body. The assassin died while inhabiting Psylocke's original body thus forcing Betsy to remain in the assassin's body. But Betsy did benefit from the ordeal; she retained her mental powers while gaining the assassin's martial arts skills as well.

Another batch of incoherent thoughts coming up, from watching the hulk...
"Right now, I just can' help but feel that by watching 'the hulk', it could change my life. I would definitely like the step into bruce banner's shoes. It got me thinking: What do I really find joy in doing? (outreach, imparting/changing lives) Why am I not accompolishing these tasks? What's hindering me? God has definitely 'given us power' greater than the hulk's. Why aren't we doing as much as we could? Have I been receiving too much (eg. encouragement from youth leaders), and not giving enough?
the hulk's a really good movie =) cool 'transitional effects' and storyline... although there're many parts of the story I don't like, especially the end (whcih doesn't show much of the goodness in bruce banner, some hero :P). He's basically way too screwed-up a character, his life is awfully sad, really.
As for the happenings of the week... well... went to sch on wed, then bowled :p tnx John ;) met pei ling yesterday, right after went to watch 'the hulk' with the DG =) today... gonna have sch, expecting an unsuccessful class outing (seriously, there ain't enough plannin'), then bowling/dinner/watching a band at 'the third place'. cya la'er dudes!

wow. it's been a while since i've blogged. i'll try...
basically, a really great church camp has passed. a time to build bonds, a time when we're challenged (to be mere church-goers or CHRISTIANS), a time to experience awfully good lodging (miss the food, and the rooms! can't forget the food!), a time of refreshing. what I took back is basically that little challenge, little, yet will have a great impact.
YATO has been AWESOME! the course has been really interesting, thanks to the change of trainers :p well, have to work on furthering the relationships, the groups clique really well, making my job much easier =)
today, after wasting 3-4 hours on the com, i realise: what i really treasure is the building of relationships with others. enough computer games! i guess the holidays do that to you, coz you're 'stuck' at home, not everyone will wanna go out. speaking of that, there's holiday homework to be done *gasp* barely touched... this saga continues...
