Studying the bible.
Okay, so we think we know Jesus.
We know that Jesus is good.
We know that Jesus is the son of God.
We know that Jesus creates miracles.
We know that Jesus lives in us every single day.
We know to ask ourselves, "What would Jesus do?"
But do we really know him?
I thought I did. I don't know. And that's okay. Because I'm so in love with God, I'm willing to learn more about Jesus and His actual history. I don't even know the backbone and structure of the Bible. I didn't find out till last week that the Bible was composed of 40 different authors over thousands of years.
Imagine that! 40 different authors over that time period. If you think about it, it really proves the Bible's worth and accuracy. I mean, more than 40 people over the years had the same message about God.
Think about it this way. If we were given the topic of what a first ideal date would be, and 40 different people were asked to write a story. We would come up with completely different, opposing, and ideas of what a "first date" would be. But not when it came to God. IT WAS ALL THE SAME.
Sure, I read the Bible... but there is a difference from scanning/memorizing, and actually reading. I think studying the Bible (like ACTUALLY study) is something I'd love to get into.

The end of the day.
At the end of the day, I know exactly how much you love me. I know how much you would go through for me.
Just know that your wish, is MY command.
Thank you for being there, regardless of the broken lines. Thank you, thank you. I'll continue to try to do my very best for you ♥
Today was a beautiful day. I loved every moment together.
Especially how you held me when I cried.

Something I'd like to point out.
I love my boyfriend with my every heart beat!
My good friends enjoy his company as well
and are always telling me how great he is for me.
But then, when I tell them I don't feel well
because of an argument, or a disappointment
caused by either me or him,
some of them look terribly surprised.
As if it was impossible for us to argue.
A lot of the times, I do hear that.
"You guys don't look like an arguing couple."
Well..
Yes, everyone. We argue. We're just like
any other normal couple. In fact, if a couple did NOT
argue, I would find that very unhealthy.
Because two people are NOT the same and we
will forever hold our different opinions.
And if you never argue, then that means,
you aren't expressing yourself.
But regardless of anything, I do love him, and I
will love him and be loved by him. It's our ability to
communicate with each other.
Besides, he's the only one who can handle me.
Me, with my impatient, fiery, wild, and free attitude.
I am a very opinionated woman, and it does take
a lot to be with me on an intimate stand.

Festival.
Last night, Mira Mesa High School hosted their first Festival.
Hoover and Poway both participated. There were 5 choirs.
Well, first of all, Madrigals rated a
UNANIMOUS SUPERIOR.
Which basically means, the best of the best.
It just makes me so, so happy to be part of this team..
To be considered as their family. I'm so proud to be a Madrigal!
I'm really happy to be part of a choir that is able to
produce wonderful music.
I'm so proud of you guys.
hearts all around ♥

Discouraged.
I am a discouraged little girl.
Why is everything just getting harder for me to accomplish?
But just because I am discouraged, does not mean
that I give up, nor will I stop praying.
I'm doing my very best to endure.
But my to-do list is getting longer and longer.
Prom is just a moment away.
Graduation is just a month away.
College is just a season away.
Growing up... it's everyday.
I wonder sometimes, why, why am I not a top scholar?
Or the school's valedictorian? Wouldn't life be easier?
And I'd probably be everyone's friend, because I would
enjoy the feeling of helping others out.
Don't get me wrong, though.
I'm perfectly content with who I am, and what I do.
It's just that I want to do more.
Much, much more.
I want to strive.
Because if I'm always so stationary,
how can I can be extraordinary?
"God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference."

One Day Without Shoes
Today I participated in "One Day Without Shoes".
I went to school with my shoes on (because my mother didn't allow me) but I took them off when I got to first period and I basically kept them off the whole day, except for lunch (so I wouldn't get dress-coded).
Basically, it's to spread awareness of how one pair of simple shoes can really affect a child's life. And it's a good idea, actually. You never really take time to think about things like this, unless there are days that make you think about it. You know? So I'm glad I am now aware of how it is actually like.
I am barefoot at home, but that's because I'm in the comfort of carpets. There are children that march over sharp rocks and volcanic soil.
It hurt walking around school and my feet were burning by the time I got home. I stared at the soles of my feet and noticed that I may have acquired a blister from the day. My feet still hurt this very moment, but then again, I can only shake my head... thinking about how much I've taken for granted.
There were about 30 students (my close friends and a couple of other people) actually walking around barefoot. When people asked me why I was doing it, they gave me a look like, "What the
heck are you talking about?" Some people didn't do it because they didn't like the way their toes looked (which I thought was really cute and silly, ahah :3)
Maybe I'm being a little too dramatic about this, but even though I already have so little.. I have much more compared to them and it's something that makes me feel guilty, for I have taking much for granted.
It's just in my personality to over-analyze these things. Ayeeeee.

Eternal Love
[I found this today and it's exactly what I want to sing for my love]
I'll even do it in Japanese.
♥ eternal love
So that my love for you would always continue this way
The hands which ask that of the night sky, still could not let go
Those casual days were repeating, unafraid of anything
Being able to welcome tomorrow together
was something natural, right?
Being protected by strong eyes, it would have been great
if time could stop now
I want to see your face illuminated by lots of lights
The first time we kissed; I still remember the sweet taste of that moment
When I think about it now, I was probably too blessed
So that you would not notice the tears flowing on my cheek, I hung my head low
"I love you" Your words quavered slightly
Because I don't want to part with my love for you
I swear to the night sky, that these hands, will never let go
In order for my love with you to last forever
I swear to the night sky, that these hands, will never let go
Because I don't want to part with my love for you
I swear to the night sky, that these hands, I'll never part

Goodnight, dear heart.
I'm putting this here, so I remember it for all times.
"Warm summer sun, shine kindly here,
Warm southern wind, blow softly here,
Green sod above, lie light, lie light,
Goodnight, dear heart,
Goodnight, goodnight."
- Robert Richardson
I like the concept of this song. The very fact that Mark Twain, placed this on his little daughter's tombstone... asking the elements of life to treat her resting place gently, because she was precious to him.

I am extremely tired tonight.
That is all.

"They might say hi,
and I might say hey.
but you shouldn't worry about
what they say."
There is nothing more splendid than hearing your breathe next to my ear, or feeling your lips on top of my head. I always wonder how you put up with my crazy attitude and multiple needs.
You're definitely mine. I'm definitely yours.
EVERYTHING happens for a reason because it's all been planned.
Oh, my little redundant heartbeats. I'll stay a little while longer..
do as you please.
"they've got nothing on you, baby"
