What are you so afraid of?

September 22, 2008


Secret heart
What are you made of
What are you so afraid of
Could it be
Three simple words
Or the fear of being overheard
What’s wrong

Let em’ in on your secret heart

Secret Heart
Why so mysterious
Why so sacred
Why so serious
Maybe you’re
Just acting tough
Maybe you’re just not man enough
What’s wrong

Let em’ in on your secret heart

This very secret
That you’re trying to conceal
Is the very same one
That You’re dying to reveal
Go tell him how you feel

Secret heart come out and share it
This loneliness, few can bear it
Maybe it’s got something to do with
Admitting that you just can’t go through it alone?

Let em’ in on your secret heart

This very secret
That you’re trying to conceal
Is the very same one
That you’re dying to reveal
Go tell ‘em how you feel
This very secret heart

Go out and share it
This very secret heart

God is good!

*Pushes button for panic mode*

*Initiate panic dance*

!!!!

I have a bone to pick with all you fine, learned lawyers/law students/academics who write lengthy papers on criminal policies + theories. OMG can’t simple non-convoluted language be used to put a simple point across?! Essay. due. in. two. days. still. don’t. know. what. the. heck. these. papers. are. trying. to. saaaay. All these circular arguments ): It’s like… they… they… they’re sneering at this poor criminology student saying “har har, you’re no alan shore. you suck.”

I’m just kidding. Sort of.

On a more serious, non-whingey note though, haha, whatever time not spent thinking about my essays, has been spent thinking about LTC. I feel God has been expanding my mind, opening my eyes and and poking at my heart to stop focusing on my inadequacies and to see beyond myself.  It’s like, trying to see the participants through God’s eyes e.g. I wonder if they realise the how much value God puts on each of their lives. Yeah, plus a whole hoard of other stuff I shan’t elaborate on. ALSO! Meh, LTC retreat is sandwiched just between my two majormajor essays; I’m afraid I won’t be fully rested/prepared/ready for it! Been trying to prepare my heart by taking more time off to pray for fac+participants, butbut I already feel so saturated with that deep-bone weariness. Deep-bone weariness = barely being able to muster a smile to anyone in the past two weeks. Oh noooo what to doooo? *weary semi-panic-dance*

Anybellyhoo, I feeling like gorging on almond croissants. And… a big meaty burger (Andrew’s burgers and Grill’d!). And a buttery cookie. And a huge bowl of rice. Or like, baked potato with bacon bits. (Hi, my name is soandso, and I’m a carb addict). Klow, your post on Arnotts biscuits and Danish tins!!! Made me feel all greedy + nostalgic. Haha, I used to only eat the pretzel looking ones crusted with sugar. Then when those were all gone, I would move on to the rectangular ones crusted with sugar. I never liked the plain ones. Haha, see krys, if we shared a tin we’d both be happy.

Today’s lesson

September 13, 2008

Today, I learnt about Honesty.

Honesty before man, but also more importantly, before God.

I learn so much from the girls & women around me. It’s kinda obvious when a girl is God-fearing. It shines through in her speech and manner. Soft, yet strong.

So grateful for sisters in Christ.

Learning still.

The Art of Flirting

September 7, 2008

HAHAHAHA omg, episode 31 of the Boundless Show podcast is too funny. I totally spat all over my screen laughing.

I like how Boundless tackles twenty-somethings’ tough questions about faith, the in-between years, careers, and dating & courtship. Some advice I find is a revelation that adds to my worldview, some I take with a pinch of salt!

Haha, this podcast?  I shall file it away for future reference/use (in several years’ time!!).

You can go here and click on ‘Episode 31′ if you wanna listen to it.
