#487 Good Ol' Fashioned Love

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCeiefp4ta8]


Tell me why, when we fall in love, all we wanna do is play it cool?
And all the words we never say, nobody ever wants to be the fool.
But I couldn't see the sense in that, oh no.
'Cause whenever I see your face, girl, I just can't hold back.

And when the day is breaking, I'm looking for your love
and when the day is fading, you're all I'm thinking of.
There ain't no use pretending, I've had enough.
I've got to get up, get on with the real, and say what I feel.

Say what I feel.

Now, you can read me like a book, so you ain't gotta read between the lines
(ain't gotta read between the lines).
I may as well just say it, oh, you know exactly what is on my mind
(girl you know what's on my mind).
So you gotta know just where I'm at, oh yeah,
'cause whenever I see you smiling, I just can't hold back.

'Cause when the day is breaking, I'm looking for your love
and when the day is fading, you're all I'm thinking of.
There ain't no use pretending, I've had enough.
I've got to get up, get on with the real...

And if I lose you now,
I'll only regret the things I never said.
But I don't, I don't know how
to show you the way I feel.

'Cause when the day is breaking, I'm looking for your love
and when the day is fading, you're all I'm thinking of.
There ain't no use pretending, I've had enough.
I've got to get up, get on with the real, and say what I feel.

I'm looking for your love,
you're all I'm thinking of.
Ain't no use pretending, I've had enough.
I've got to get up, get on with the real, and say what I feel.

This is something different! My kind of music! They're so talented Heee, good music indeed! Oh weells, haven't been online on a lappie in a long time. So here's a short update. Everyone's headed off to Kem Perdana tomorrow morning while i'm gonna be here. Saturday is a big day, for a few of us. Heh, another closed run. (Competition)

Anyways, centralized training started yesterday. And I've been really tired in school lately ): Learned how to say: " If you don't come school tomorrow, I don't wanna friend you. " in Chinese from them classmates. Heh, teachers haven't really been teaching lately due to the maths & science week I think. But schools been preeettty busy for them, with the drama competitions and etc.

Haven't been feeling well lately too, keep feeling tired and sick, nevertheless God pulls me through each time. Crashed into someone while running today. Literally, a coach actually. Everyone is crammed into that teeny stadium and I couldn't stop. Was too tired, so I crashed landed and made a whole scene. OHWELLS.

Training has its perks too :)

Till then!

Adam Young is amazing,


"She is out there. My Cinderella. She is real. She exists. I pray for her constantly. May God satisfy the desires of her heart, draw her close, consume her. May He claim her passions, her identity, her refuge, her hopes, her straegths and weaknesses, every fiber of her being. May she treasure and cherish her Savior more than anything of this world and cling to His will with every ounce of her stamina. By all that she is, does, and strives to be, may He draw near to her and she to Him"
-Adam Young (Owl City)

__

Wow, honestly guys after Gods heart are really attractive. Hopefully. Someday huh.
Adam's blog? Added to my inspiration lists. OH THIS. Artists who aren't afraid to talk about God, that's somehow amazing. 

Just had to post this. Exactly what the world needs now. What the media i mean.

Well,
till then!

School lifeeeeee,

Can be pretty mundane sometimes, but things like :

..appearing on my tumblr dashboard, gives me a little spark of hope. That everything will turn out perfectly fine.

Just cause Jesus is my inspiration & hope for each new day.
Felt really refreshed after CF today. It was different, good different and I like it. Hope all our members had a great time and fellowship. And I pray that each and everyone of them will experience God in one way or another.

Hopes.
God does not disappoint.

ps/ happy early birthday Sean Lee Dao Ming!

#485 Distraction & Priorities


Where to next?
In the world we live in today, we find it hard to stay focused on what’s right. We tend to strife for things that will make us “happy”. The latest smartphone, Ipad3 or any other form of entertainment perhaps? This is obvious, as any student you ask today would prefer to go out rather than study. (Even though we are well aware of the fact that studying ensures a brighter future)

But what if the more you got, the more you would want?
I mean we are mere humans and we can never have enough. However, God has changed everything. Even today, we can choose to be contented, to be grateful and count out blessings. The fact that we wake up every morning should make us grateful. Our families and loved ones around us should be considered a blessing too, food that we have, stomachs that do not starve. Everything else. If only we chose to be contented today, everything would be so much different. I mean what’s the point of getting something just to be like someone else? God thinks you’re perfect already. Think you’re not pretty or handsome enough? Didn’t God say we were all fearfully and wonderfully made? He sees the heart, something the world doesn’t. So what if you’re not talented or popular enough? God’s plans for you are perfect nonetheless.
Jeremiah 29:11 11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

So yea, I am on this journey of discovering His plans for me too. Recently, I stumbled upon the part in the Bible where it stated the fruits of the Spirit,  
Galatians 5:22 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
And it woke me up. I cannot blame my situations and the people around me anymore.  We are all called to exercise the fruits of the Spirit no matter what. That is living up to His standards. Loving OTHERS more that yourself. This means, putting their needs, their priorities and their feelings before yours. Yes, it may be scary that God has his standards too. But we need to try before even saying it’s too high.  I think that fulfillment of trying to walk in His ways will make us grateful & contented whether we realize it or not.

Another thing that struck me is this verse (In the latter parts of the chapter) Galatians 5:26 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. This has shown me about the way I live. I mean, I admit sometimes your family can get on you. But the way I react can make a difference. Oh and I’ve been spending too much time thinking about Joe Brooks lately. :/ Yea, till it worries me. I mean, so what if he doesn’t notice my tweet right. Have I put his recognition above everything else? Cause lately, I can’t do anything without relating it to him. Which is embarrassing. Sometimes I even read the Bible but still think about him. GAHH, IKR. I NEED TO SET MY PRIORITIES RIGHT. Again, gotta fix my eyes on the cross. Because forgiveness required His life, and His relationship with God, I need to know that He is more deserving of my thought & imaginations. He is amazing, I mean God. He chose to give forgiveness freely, to anyone who wanted it. That would be like saving up your whole life, to buy a billion Iphones & Ipad3s then distributing it to everyone who came. FOR FREE. Our God is quite cool eh? I think that deserves more energy, than anything else.

I’ve struggled to prioritize God as no. 1 and surrendering everything to Him. Pastor Rose said earlier today ”If we’re questioning God, we are saying that we doubt His plans for us.” And He says His plans are perfect, why am I questioning perfect? What can be more perfect right?

Sorry for the scattered thoughts. Its just that lately I’ve noticed that my devotions has been done out of obligations instead of willingness. Just needed a space to write out my thoughts. We’re all learning you see. :)  Anyways, Church was great today & it gave me a lot to think about. (WE HAD SO MUCH CANDY!)

Till then,
Happy going back to school, lovely readers.
God bless you all!

Five days of summer in the rain,

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwVIzLGYvGM]
Second favorite song from "Constellation Me", Joe Brooks
The lyrics are really sweet.




She leaves just silence in her path
A short goodbye, some photographs
I took them with me on the plane from Appledoore into LA
This broken heart it doesn’t hurt
Still wear these memories on my shirt
From five days of summer in the rain


Now I’m falling towards the ground, it’s coming at me way too fast
But you don’t learn to fly, if you’re not prepared to crash


She’s the sunlight in my eyes
She’s a bittersweet goodbye
And I just can’t tell you why
I’d let her break my heart again
For those five days of summer in the rain, in the rain


Ten hours is too much time to think
I wrote a song I’d never sing
About a queen who lost her crown
About a boy who almost drowned
These angel city lights are mine
I wont forget but leave behind
Those five days of summer in the rain


Now I’m falling towards the ground, it’s coming at me way too fast
But you don’t learn to fly, if you’re not prepared to crash



She’s the sunlight in my eyes
She’s a bittersweet goodbye
And I just can’t tell you why
I’d let her break my heart again
For those five days of summer in the rain


Cause when it rains it’s sure to poor in Appledoore
We took the waves, She showed me life, She showed me love, I had it all
And all the time she’s not around I want her more
She’s so beautiful


She’s the sunlight in my eyes
She’s a bittersweet goodbye
And I just can’t tell you why
I’d let her break my heart again
For those five days of summer in the rain
In the rain
Five days of summer in the rain
In the rain
Five days of summer in the rain

Five days of summer in the rain,

#481 God knows my feet are aching,

Well, I owe you a concert post. But before that. Despite all this busy-ness. Meeting Joe & the trios. Its rather amusing why we get so crazy and hyped up over them. I mean life goes on too. Right, nothing is as easy.

So to my dear friend, who has always showed me that giving up on someone is not an option. I hope everything goes well. Things happen sometimes, but no matter how hard we gotta trust that it is a small part of God's perfect plan. Hang in there Zheng. Sorry for being too sarcarsticandmean lately. ):

OKAY SO. The picture of Joe and another girl came out from Galaxie. HAHAHA.

NO, i'm not jealous. Okay I'll tell you what kind of fan I am. I really like his music and down to earth personality. And that's about it. In fact I hope he finds & marries a really pretty/nice girl that's equally as down to earth like him! Haha, exciting to see who though. :) Among the trio, I like Clinton alot too. He's really nice and funny. Going "OMG, ITS JOE" and mocking us. Haha he even said " I LOVE YOU TOO MAN" back at us when we shouted. :)

THIS, is why I'm part of the #BrooksTribe
