| *~high of 75 |
one last before i go to sleep..
"The only thing mmhmm really lacks is that one stand out track to become the theme for teenagers across the country (a la "Sadie Hawkins・Dance" and "Mood Rings"), but any of the tracks on here could readily be radio hits. RK loyalists might also be a tad disappointed that for the first time, there is no hidden track (Where are our Skittles and Combos? Where is Emcee Defenseless? Where is the accordion player?), unless you count a twenty second "mmhmm" intro to the CD a "hidden track." And there is no sign of a "That was terrible!" But that is all nit-picking at what is a fantastic release. " Jesus Freak Hideout
we got jipped!!! what twenty second intro?? nay, dot, go over the cd with a FINE TOOTHCOMB.. on the computer, maybe?... *mutters* huh! hidden intro.. I'LL FIND YOU!! *shakes fist*
We were talking together
I said "What's up with this weather?"
Dont know whether or not
How sad I just got
Was on my own volition
Or if I'm just missin the sun
And tomorrow, I know,
Will be rainy at best.
And the forecast, I know,
Is that I'll be depressed.
But I'll wait outside
Hopin that I'll catch sight of the sun.
chorus-
Because on and off,
The clouds have fought
For control over the sky
And lately the weather
Has been so bi-polar
And Consequently so have I
And now I'm sunny with a High
of 75
Since You took my heavy heart
And made it light
And it's funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be alive
-chorus
And the temprature is freezing
And then, after dark,
There is a cold front sweeping
In over my heart
And we might break up
If I dont wake up to the sun
chorus
Sunny with a High of 75
Since You took my heavy heart
And made it light (made it light)
And its funny how you find
You enjoy your life
When you're happy to be...
Alive

habakkuk 3:1-2
God, I've heard what our ancestors say about you, and I'm stopped in my tracks, down on my knees. Do among us what you did among them. Work among us as you worked among them. And as you bring judgment, as you surely must, remember mercy. |

Spreading Your Wings
Don't, enemy, crow over me.
I'm down, but I'm not out.
I'm sitting in the dark right now,
but GOD is my light.
I can take GOD's punishing rage.
I deserve it--I sinned.
But it's not forever. He's on my side
and is going to get me out of this.
He'll turn on the lights and show me his ways.
I'll see the whole picture and how right he is.
And my enemy will see it, too,
and be discredited--yes, disgraced!
This enemy who kept taunting,
"So where is this GOD of yours?"
I'm going to see it with these, my own eyes--
my enemy disgraced, trash in the gutter. |

1 Corinthians 10:13 "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful, He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it."
James 4:7 "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
1 John 4:4 "... because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." |

| journey to the past |
Heart don't fail me now
Courage don't desert me
Don't turn back now that we're here
People always say life is full of choices
No one ever mentions fear
Or how the road can seem so long
Or how the road can seem so vast
Courage see me through
Heart i'm trusting you
On this journey... to the past
Somewhere down this road
I know someone's waiting
Years of dreams just can't be wrong
Arms will open wide
I'll be safe and wanted
Finally home where I belong
Well starting here my life begins
Starting now I'm learning fast
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you
On this journey... to the past
Heart don't fail me now (oh no)
Courage don't desert me (desert me)
Home, love, family there was once a time
I must have had them too
Home, love, family I will never be complete until I find you
One step at a time
one hope, then another
Who knows where this road may go (ooh)
Back to who I was
On to find my future
Things my heart still needs to know
Yes let this be a sign
Let this road be mine
Let it lead me to my past
Courage see me through
Heart I'm trusting you to bring me home

| *~ new year's resolutions |
gaahhh.. computer stuffing up.. i lost my post yesterday and gave up and went to bed.. so i have to post my new year's resolutions (which are always kinda silly and often never done cos i forget them..) on the 2nd of january.. *sigh*
- my life will scream "i belong to God".. well... not scream.. but.. yeah.. you know what i mean.. 24/7.. not just on Sundays, not when i'm around Christians, not when i'm in the mood to, not when the atmosphere is right.. but EVRYDAY any time, any place.. for the rest of my life...
- GOD FIRST, then family (immediate then kids), then school/friends (depends on whether that assignment is due in the next day or not)
- chocolate *sigh*: no this is not a diet.. this is healthy eating.. 3 meals a day, no snacks.. no snacks?? .... then.. i can have a bit of chocolate.. exceptions: sleepovers/parties/*shrugs*
- be a good mum (not annoying, not bossy (and i know i'm often bossy), not poking my nose into everything, but those things that you love your mum for.. taking time off work when you're sick, somehow knowing when you're down or when something's wrong, knowing if you need a hug or when you need to be left alone, caring..), be a good daughter, be a good sister (sorry dot & dan), be a good friend
- do my homework on time (stop laughing).. and not start my assignments the day before they are due..
- prepare for bible study every week .. (wouldn't it be nice to have a week where EVERYONE prepared for it.. wouldn't that make evan happy?) even when it's testing week and we're all v. busy..
- read my Bible everyday.. (have i said this before??) even when it's 2 in the morning and i've just finished an assignment and i don't feel like reading something else.. i will read it...
- i will not turn into serious, scary year 11 and not talk to anyone and stuff.. i will watch a disney movie a week.. well.. maybe not.. but.. i will take some time to relax every week.. and..
- I WILL NOT STOP COMING TO YF cos of school (or anything for that matter).. lynn.. you break your promise and you're dead :P
- i can open your eyes.. i will share the gospel with people (and try to make school chapel services something which will touch the people)
- if i go on a trip i will not leave luke behind.. (poor luke.. he must be so lonely)
- i will not be lazy.. (ha, fat chance) and clean my room every weekend
- i will not lose touch with meera, radhika, lauren & zoe.. just because they're going to 'bundah doesn't mean i'll never see them again.. will have coffee with them at least once a term..
haha.. made it to 13.. they got increasingly sillier, didn't they?? |

O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, in your name I will lift up my hands
