| 花了些時間,翻閱了舊的entries... 眼淚不停地流著、流著...
原來有些東西 無論過了多少時間 想起的時候都會有很多感觸
過了幾年 人變了很多、事也變了很多 但我真的滿懷感恩 因看見主的手仍拖帶著我

| I'm here for two reasons.
1. I have an instrumental analysis lab report due tomorrow and I am procrastinating.
2. I really do have something to write about.
It's been a while and things have changed. I sat down to write some lyrics today and realized the way I think has changed. The priorities in my life and what I hold dear have changed. It's not because the old things were bad, it's just that these new things are even better. They're simple.
Starting from basics helped so much. I've always thought I had "sufficient" knowledge of what I believed in. (the words of a fool, I know) I mean, as long as I can watch out for myself and not be shaken... that's good enough, right? But just like the storm we had a couple weeks ago... it really doesn't matter how deep your roots are, you gotta always seek to go deeper. Storms come by and loosen the dirt and if you're not careful, a gust of wind can blow you over. And very easily too. The storms in life loosen the foundation we feel secure and when a gust of wind blows, you're a goner. Just like that. Uprooted. Fallen.
I have many many things to un-learn and re-learn. This has been a wonderful experience so far. I feel I'm playing smarter this time. :) And honestly, I just gotta say, God's timing is so perfect. I couldn't have asked for a better place to be at this stage of my life. And even Winnie noticed how much I was smiling after I came back from confirmation class the other day.
It's good to have someone who sees not only your faults and failures, but someone who sees your potential to change and someone who helps fuel that hunger you have for God and for the things of God.
Time to take root.

|  | Currently Watching Annie Hall By Hy Anzell, Colleen Dewhurst, Shelley Duvall, Russell Horton, Carol Kane see related | Hard Candy (2005) proved a little too intense for me. It's incredible how a movie with only 2 main characters and 6 characters total can be so cinematic. Ellen Page, or what Travis likes to describe her... such a young actress... but one with an old soul, was absolutely magnificent. Looking at her gave me chills. It was too disturbing.
Although there was never any explicit gore, the use of colors and the camera was more than suggestive enough to let my own imagination drive me nuts (hehe... pun intended.) <-- i know i'm a nerd. Bite me.
Watch it only if you think you have the balls to.
Annie Hall (1977!), on the other hand, was something that I really liked. It gave me that warm fuzzy feeling afterwards just like after watching Juno. And Diane Keaton was really really good in it.
I've written a new melody. It's been a long time since I'd written anything that I'd liked for more than 2 days. But I've been listening back and playing it over and over and it seems to be holding together pretty well. (and this one's in the key of G! haha..!!) Hopefully, whoever writes the lyrics will put even more life into the song...
Having left now for a while, I really miss what I used to do. It was extremely frustrating at times, but when I was with the right people, things would come together so beautifully and everyone would know that that was what it's all about. It's not with people who only think they're great at it or deserve to do it only because it gives them a sort of superiority. Those people are too easy to spot. But those who are good enough to do it without drawing attention to themselves are ones I admire most. That's what being "great" at it is about.
And the reason why one-fifth of Americans can't spot America on a world map is because some people in our country don't even have maps...
I'm out.
