Awesome. :) My day was superbly and fantastically AWESOME!

I got a new LAPTOP!!!

(ok, fine.. technically I only own 1/3 of it, but hehehe..

I know I'll be the only who uses it cause I need it for college. =P)

Thank you Kelvin and Mel for tea/dinner at Delicious on Thursday. I love the presents Mel! I ♥ you!! =D And to Liz, Lynn and Kamini.. thank you, you 3 sweet angels. =) It was a real blast spending my birthday with you girls. Thank you Liz for the thoughtful gift. You made me laugh the most. =P Let's watch a movie again! Love you girls. =D

Whee.. I shall cam-whore with my lappy soon. ♥

Mile 2.0 =)

It's obvious. I've entered a new age group. Or so my friends tell me. Yeap. My 'teen' days are now officially over. *let me take a moment to ponder on those memories* =) It was bittersweet and really full of vibrant colors. :)

2 decades now. Did I grow? I think so. It feels that way. :) I feels like there are new perspectives, new ideas, new thoughts and new goals and aspirations. I think I feel kinda happy to know that I am growing older. Not because of the freedom I get, but because I feel I am being prepared to take on more of what the Lord has installed for me. BRING IT!

Most importantly, I hope I have grown stronger and tougher; emotionally and spiritually. It has been a real roller coaster ride for me. Sometimes I wonder if I can take on this journey. But God has His ways. I guess it's time to stop giving God instructions and just take His directions. Here I am, Lord. Hold my hand and guide me through. :)

Some many miles those were. Conquered them I have. Another mile again. I have traveled 2.0 miles. Not bad eh? =P

3 days more. XD

OH oooohh...

Used to

We used to have this figured out;
We used to breathe without a doubt.
When nights were clear, you were the first star that I'd see.
We used to have this under control.
We never thought.
We used to know.
At least there's you, and at least there's me.
Can we get this back?
Can we get this back to how it used to be?

Yea. Used to. Guess I have to get used to this now. sigh..

I Hope You Dance. :)

I think this song is really written beautifully. Something to encourage everyone today.

Life brings you down, it can make you feel small and worthless, it can even make you feel that you froze dead in your tracks but give faith a fighting chance. I hope you'd find joy regardless of the circumstances and I hope you'd always dance in the midst of the worst possible situations. I hope you'd dance. :)

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat
But always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Living might mean taking chances
But they're worth taking
Lovin' might be a mistake
But it's worth making
Don't let some hell bent heart
Leave you bitter
When you come close to selling out
Reconsider
Give the heavens above
More than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small
When you stand by the ocean
Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens
Promise me you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
(Time is a real and constant motion always)
I hope you dance
(Rolling us along)
I hope you dance
(Tell me who)
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
I hope you dance
(Where those years have gone)

(Tell me who)
I hope you dance
(Wants to look back on their youth and wonder)
(Where those years have gone)

Feb =)

I just noticed that it's February. :) For some reason, this February seems a little different. I used to be really jumpy and excited when Feb comes; yes... I am super excited when my birthday is around the corner. =P

This year? Not so much. In fact.. I wasn't exactly looking forward to it. So much has happened in the last 8 to 9 months of my life and I think it has finally taken its tow on me. I've wasted too much tears on it and I've grown to be numb in a way.

But I know that God has intended my life to take such a course. Did I grow? I really hope so. Did I mature? I really hope so. Did I become stronger? I really really hope so. It's a tough walk ahead but I am ever so glad for the people who are willing to come take my hand and walk beside me. Thanks. :)

I've never known how powerful this sentence is until recently, "This is what we have to face, know that your not alone anymore.." I think I was so awed and touched that tears began to fall. I have to stop crying too much, but better out than in. :)

So, welcome February. :) Thanks for bringing some sunshine in with you. =)

MJ Medley.

This is really good! Talent + Creativity. :)
