Thanatophobia

fear of death or dying.

my biggest fear,
to the point of phobia.

this fear,
can keep me frozen in my place,
can make me break out in cold sweat,
can make me feel sick all over.

I can barely even think of it,
without suffering the symptoms above.

i don't like the idea of being alone.
being stuck 6feet under ground,
not knowing what lies ahead,
will I suffer?

how will judgement be?
how will heaven be like?
how will hell?
or purgatory?
where will I go?

im scared shitless!
I really am.

even as i type this,
goosebumps and chill sting my bones.

one of the things i especially don't like,
is that no one can predict it nor control it,
it can happen anytime,
when you least expect it.

i can barely sleep alone,
you're asking me to die alone?
face death and judgement,
and the uncertainty of the afterlife alone?

im so doomed.
*face buried in hands*

Australia update =)

Before we left KLIA
KLIA

at Singapore,
we kept ourselves occupied by window shopping, free movie-'an unfinished life', wifi-bloghopping..


then boarded plane..
changed seats with Grace so ended up sitting next to Karen =)

been on the plane for about 7hours..my gosh..
so boring..food was great though, kept eating and eating and eating =)
kept myself occupied with games, 'run,fatboy,run', music..
unfortunately slept for only about 2hours..

and at 10am (brisbane time), finally reached!!
had to go through customs and everything,
thank goodness everything ran smoothly..

Brisbane airport

and off we go....
bus ride to
Australian Catholic University..
i absolutely love the campus!!
huge! lovely! spacious! clean! amazing!

wind is so very strong!
seeps thru your bone.. =(
sun is blazing in the sky,
but you don't feel an ounce of its heat..

coupons to lunch then..
guess what we ate??
water, orange/apple & 'garden salad sandwich'


jakuns united!!
lemon tree!! =)
mushrooms =P
then we had a small tour of the campus, of its origins & artworks...sigh..
turns out to be it used to be a seminary hundreds of years ago..WOW!
and better yet!-a sacred land to the aboriginals long long time before that!

the campus is a shape of a dove,
and the center, 'the heart' of the dove,
is the church..
the inside of the church


the outside of the church


the tour guide,
who is an ACU student,
who is taking up theology..
(yes, yes, amazing, i know!!-i was so impressed!)
anyway, he told us very interesting facts about the church and how to spot saints..
totally cool!


so im now surfing the net and blogging
while waiting for the bus
to take us to St.Bernadines..
to our host families..

okay, until i find another net point..
here's goodbye =)

Lovey, Mandy..

PS: missing you already, mum & dad!! =( Lovey Lovey U very much!!
