Sunday, sunday & saturday

Saturday was soooo fun! After about half the worship practice all the singers went into Faith Chapel to practice harmony. We were all alone, without any authourity. Just me, Nicole, Abby, Piying, Shannon & Benjamin. We all didn't really practice. After about 10-20 minutes, we all got bored and started singing random songs. For no reason at all might I add. We were singing like, Feliz Navidad (in the middle of the year!) and chinese songs. Some of us started lying down and singing because it was easier to sing that way. When we had been singing random songs for about 10-15 minutes we started practicing harmony again.

After megalife I went to a concert. It was soooooooooooo good! It was a piano concert. Totally nice! There was one song that had 2 singers singing it. The guy's name was Benjamin and he looked like an adult version of Benjamin Leow! When I saw the singer I was like, 'OMG! He looks like an adult version of Ben!' The I checked the name and I was like, 'OMG! He also the same name!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!' I was so shocked!

On sunday nothing special happened. It was the usual stuff. Kinda weird because usually I have a great time with the band. It was one of those weekends that everything seemed normal. Wonder why? The weather? The fact that I was still tired? I dunno....

Fact: The whole superstision of wearing onions around your neck came from a long time ago. When a whole bunch of people got sick from a horrible plague only the onion merchants didn't get sick. They all were saved because the onions helped fight off the bacteria. That's how the myth of putting onions arond your neck to keep away vampires. Onion power!!! XD...LOL!!!!

Weekends, albums and lollipops, what next?!

Last weekend was sooooooooooooo much fun! Can't believe the months have gone by so fast! Can you believe it's already August????? I mean, total fast-forward....Wonder if it has anything to do the fact that I've been super, super, super packed every week. At least on weekends.

Anyway, the album results haven't come out yet. Just waiting for it makes me feel like jumping up and down. *jumping up and down*. The 4ever humble (and flattering) Natalie's been pestering me -not really "pestering", but bugging me in a good way- about the album. That I'm, I qoute, "Gonna get in the album. Uncle Mike likes your voice the most." As my usual -annoyed, and bugged that she doesn't think she has a chance either- reply, "Whatever. Wait. Do you hear that? It's you're alarm clock! Time to get out of dream land! You're a great singer!!!!!!!!!!" (It's the truth sister, and don't deny it!!!!)
Every weekend always ends with me wishing it was longer. Why are weekends so short? Why can't there be 5 weekends and only 2 weekdays? That would do many students some justice. *thinks* Well, whatever...

Ever been so bored you wanted to see what would happen if you put a lollipop in the microwave? My advice: DO NOT DO IT!!!!! For the 1st thing, that's stupid. Who wants a warm lollipop? 2ndly, if you put it in to long and bite into it it could explode! 3rd, you could burn your tongue. Just a quick fact.
Hey! Good idea! I'll put a random fact at the end of each entry! Go brain, go brain....XD

Dark Era 5

School the next day was a blur. The different classes all mashed together, the teachers' words were all meaningless. My thoughts were stuck on that picture. After school was over I just stood at the entrance to the park. Did I want to go in? I really did, but I also didn't want to... I took a deep breath and looked behind me. Then I quickly walked in and found the flower patch. I sat on the bench and took out my sketch-book. I started sketching, looking out at the patch and then started sketching again.

When I finished I just stared at the picture. The guy in the picture was the same guy that was in the other one! Except this time he was standing up, holding out his hand. His expression was once again kind, peaceful and loving. He seemed to be looking right into my eyes, asking me to come to Him. I ran my hand over the drawing, wishing I could step into the scene. Yet I still wondered, 'Who is he?'

FOP

Yesterday rocked!!!! FOP rocked like, wow oh wow!!!! Thanks everybody! You all made it so special: Central 2 you rock! I had so much fun! Even though the bus came late and we had to sit at the back. R4C, you rock to!!! You all made it sooooooo fun! Can't wait till the next FOP already...

Anyway, during the 2 FOPs I wrote this stuff. There was a lot of inspiration there. I just couldn't put my notebook down without feeling like I'd just lost a great chance to write something beautiful. It was just God's presense there that made the writing so meaningful to me:

I wrote this on Saturday, when I went with my cell:
One small voice,
Lost in a sea of cries.
One note in a song,
Over-looked by many tunes.
A word hidden,
By a beautiful sentense.
But will you notice it?
Do you realise one or all?
A few or none?
God: ALL
A voice, a note or a word,
All noticed by God.
Did you know?

I wrote this one on Sunday, when I went with R4C:
How could you possibly reach so far?
Out into the empty air,
Calling out God's name.
You don't have to reach.
Just agree.
Out into the empty air,
You're hand will reach no more.
Before a step has been taken,
God will be with you.

I just wanted to post them here. Whenever I write my work down, and read it over again I feel like I'm looking at someone elses work. So weird right? I just can't believe that I wrote it. How wierd.....
