halfway there!! showdown at sunrise- race to the finish at 5pm!!!!!

pro-cras-ti-nation

we are tempted by it.
we love it.
we are guilty of it.
yep.
(psssssst dun get the wrong idea i'm talking about procrastination)


my worse nightmare now isn't 70 pages of marketing research that needs to be done by friday. its not even a shorter, more deadly difficult econometrics assignment due the same day which i'm reading through a TEXTBOOK to try and understand the variables. (confessions are a different category LOL)

i think my nightmare is that procrastination is fast catching up with me. together with a guilty life of contingency prayers, late nights, bad diets and last minute, compacted stress packages! my body is not taking it very well, nor is my mind or heart i guess.

procrastination is like that. why put a 'pro' there when you know there is no way you're the first to do anything AND neither is it positive!!!! its like the person who ever coined that word (i'm not gonna bother with checking the dictionary on this one) had a wicked sense of humor :p like laughing at you when you know that whoever is the subject is just putting everything till last??


so sluggards!
do some work. now.
time to be a man.
(or woman, whoever God, in His perfect will made you as you are k? hehe :D )

what have i done?

one word strikes me clean, and that is..

undeserving.


will i ever be?

o.O

... got a message that on this day, God wants him to know...

... that you cannot wait anymore.

The moment has finally come. You have no choice. You have to take that step now. Now. Not tomorrow, not in an hour, - Now!... If anyone else is reading this, they would be confused. But not you. You know exactly what we mean. Do it. Now.

22/10

twitter was afloat, happy chats everyone had
who's doesn't have their face online these days?
turned down the volume, switched off the windows
it was a long day, only some quiet i wanted
they were all avenues, but it just didn't feel right
so i turned off things one by one
till all the brightness was gone
can i talk to you Lord
and let me hear, those stories you tell me
i got reminded, that i talked too much
and never sat down long enough to listen
i'm kind of lost, no one's a hearing.
but some don't get it, its more than just companionship
something's missing, and its hurting inside now
emotions? weakness? those i do not succumb
have i forgotten to stop, and really listen...
to You, and be found

? :)

Lion King Song

its angeline's birthday, and she mentioned the lion king song on her shoutout so i thought i'd youtube it and hear the whole song since its been a while- and this clip outta the first lion king was just hilarious! timon and pumba (simba's heng tai's were in such a depressed state.)

work work work work is not working out. getting jittery.
can't shake it off, but i guess it'll all be clear out soon!

have to lar :x

what are the chances really.

verse of the day:

“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.”- Jeremiah 29:11


i'm gonna sleep with that verse in my heart and mind :)

swamped

is the word for it. a thousand words and then none. gave a short thought to work, facebook, and where i am right now, and well, i think i need an overhaul of some sort.

even shopping has become an errand. GAH!!!
at least i caught a few movies at home.
got slightly more time to do some work.
slept in.


but here comes the other half of the week :)


oh help me Lord!

chillin'

this is the purple i see through the resource room blinds :)
of course, this isn't the same view :p

but its peaceful enough ;)

grey?

some things you don't forget. maybe its that moment where you realise something awesome, or find something cool or that joke that always manages to crack you up. i'm sure you have one of those right? memories have a way of being fuzzy after a while.. but i still remember when a good friend of mine in school gave me a dose of wisdom.


what do you decide when you're going to do something grey? (not clearly black or white, or in some cases, right or wrong.)

If it doesn't glorify God, don't do it.
don't click, think, or take a step further.


its a fair dose of wisdom.
let my heart be renewed every day Lord..
let it be right before you

so much work.

time to go home.

THERE IS SO MUCH WORK TO CATCH UP ON!!


but not today lar. if not my brain is gonna overflow outta my skull :P

Retreat

i saw a lot of happy faces from photos and replies :) it was all so worth it. seeing ppl i know touched, having the chance to explain and share a bit about God to Lc, and havin the assurance that God's gift remained in me :)

yes, that gift. a blessing and a responsibility.

on another note, i learned much from taking up the portfolio. i thought i would be doing too little but -whoa- i had another thing coming :p i can now see more.. in people and 'administrative' scope. i guess i learned more about being myself too :)

had my little holiday today. slept in on the off day (which i even forgot i had!) had lunch and played a few games with rick and jon. physically i'm more or less recovered! even had a good yumcha session with the guys.


tmr college begins, and half a challenging sem more. in a blink, one quarter of 2009 is over o_O
it should be the most interesting quarter yet!!
thank you Lord :)
