Country Music Rawks!!

Ok, that is an oxymoronic title... but, that's besides the point.

I was listening to Rascal Flatts at work today, and thought I'd share a song of theirs (or rather, part of it) with you all.

"Sometimes I take on this world by myself

Thinking I got all the answers, don't need anybody's help

Well, God was right there waiting for me all along

To fall down on my knees, surrender all.

Things that matter, things that don't."

- Rascal Flatts, Things that Matter

Never realised that Rascal Flatts can be so spiritually uplifting. But nevertheless, it's a good reminder. God was right there waiting for me all along to fall down on my knees and surrender all.

The Drama of Life

Sometimes, it feels as though my life is a drama.

I am the script-writer who carefully crafts out every twist and turn of the plot, who ingeniously composes every dialogue, who brilliantly plans the happily-ever-after.

With a sense of self-satisfaction, I proudly display the masterpiece to the Director. Yet, as the drama is being acted out, the Director makes so many changes to the script that the final product is beyond recognition.

I sure hope that the season finale is better than my happily-ever-after ending.

doing what I love doing feels good

The Sunday Star published my article entitled "My Beloved Country" (originally titled "To the One that I Miss") on April 4. The article can be found in print on page E13 of the Education section. The online version of the article can be found here.

To Study

Oh Study, my dear Study,
Of you I have become so weary.

I love you so; I can't deny.
Yet at times, from you I'd fly.

Indeed, to you I'm always bound,
But in restlessness I'm often found.

We were, once, a couple so loving,
Since when have you become so controlling?

From me are driven all my beaux,
For I cease not to have you in tow.

Please release me. Let me go!
But still, you know I love you so.

Just for the sake of...

Well, actually I don't have anything significant to say. Just thought I'd keep this blog alive since it has not been attended to in quite a while. Okay, more than quite a while. Alright! ...for a looong time.

Or maybe this is just an excuse for me to not read or work or do anything that is productive. I just feel like slacking, since it's Thursday night. What about Thursday night, you may ask. 'Cause it's the night before Friday! So what? So that means it's almost the weekend! (Duh!)

But then again, I guess anytime is a good time to slack.

By the way, just to let keep you all updated.... I AM HEADING DOWN TO ORLANDO FLORIDA FOR THE SUMMER! It's official! I will be doing an internship with Wycliffe Bible Translators! That sure keeps me going for the rest of this semester.

The key to success: Beginning with the end in mind!
