oh. 'The Angel' said that my blog is messy. Hm.
I guess that's if you're viewing it through firefox.
I use internet explorer though.
So sorry. I don't know what to do.
Today, my parents and my sis and i were talking bout Da Vinci Code. As christians, we obviously did not agree with the 'facts' from the boook. We talked about the forbidden fruit and all.... because in the book, the fruit was an apple. But the bible never mentioned the fruit's identity. IT was just--'THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT.' fullstop. My sis so blur::
Me: When i was small, i always thought it was a banana... because when they acted it out in plays, they always use the banana...
Mum: *laughs nonstop* (asks Joanna) Do you know what fruit it is??
Joanna: I know lar! It's the apple!
Mum and me : *laughs*
Joanna: Yeah it is! That's why the man's thingy is called Adam's apple because Adam choked on his apple!
Mum: HUH?? *laughs*
Joanna: And that's why lotsa companies have logos saying Eden with an apple shape!
Me: yeah dats true.. hahaa...
Mum: BUt in the bible, it's just the forbidden fruit!
Me: Yeah.. HAHA..
Joanna: Is it?
Me: But somehow apples are always linked to the forbidden fruit.. hm...
And then we started talking bout Job(Job right?) who was swallowed by a big fish. Most people think it's a whale. IT"S JUST A BIG FISH!!! (i butted in and said that it was SINBAD who was swallowed by a whale.. lol.. you know.. those storiess...)
ANd then..
Me: I also remember that Dumbo, or Jumbo, the flying elephant...
Joanna and mum: IT's DUMBO.
ME and dad: NO! It's JUMBO!!
Blah blah blah..
Then we chatted bout dumbo or jumbo whatever it's name was and how it learnt to fly......
You know.. in the cartoon.. Jumbo/Dumbo got drunk and started hiccuping bubbles and ended up on some tree where they met the crows that taught him how to fly with his enormous ears.
Yeah so that's the story.
And btw i just realized.. It's DUMBO. hehe...
Conclusion?
We all agreed that Dan Brown is a smart writer. And my dad added that if he was pro-christian, he would have been a magnificent bible study leader, with his brilliant mind. Joanna said DaVinciCode reminded her of 'The Beautiful Mind'. Man, the mere thought of that show freaks me out. I couldn't sleep after i watched that movie. Freaky.
Anyway, the forbidden fruit isn't an apple. OK?
