Fortune Cookie

I was packing for college and I found this:

Friends long absent are
coming back to you.

How fitting...

Yay for Disney songs!

[Meg:]
If there's a prize for rotten judgement
I guess I've already won that
No man is worth the aggravation
That's ancient history, been there, done that!

[Muses:] Who'd'ya think you're kiddin'
He's the Earth and heaven to you
Try to keep it hidden
Honey, we can see right through you
Girl, ya can't conceal it
We know how ya feel and
Who you're thinking of

[Meg:]
No chance, no way
I won't say it, no, no

[Muses:]
You swoon, you sigh
why deny it, uh-oh

[Meg:]
It's too cliche
I won't say I'm in love

I thought my heart had learned its lesson
It feels so good when you start out
My head is screaming get a grip, girl
Unless you're dying to cry your heart out
Oh

[Muses:]
You keep on denying
Who you are and how you're feeling
Baby, we're not buying
Hon, we saw ya hit the ceiling
Face it like a grown-up
When ya gonna own up
That ya got, got, got it bad

[Meg:]
No chance, now way
I won't say it, no, no

[Muses:]
Give up, give in
Check the grin you're in love

[Meg:]
This scene won't play,
I won't say I'm in love

[Muses:]
You're doin flips read our lips
You're in love

[Meg:]
You're way off base
I won't say it
Get off my case
I won't say it

[Muses:]
Girl, don't be proud
It's O.K. you're in love

[Meg:]
Oh
At least out loud,
I won't say I'm in love

~"I Won't Say (I'm In Love)"
from Disney's Hercules

It doesn't really apply to my life right now, it's just a fun song.
It's even more interesting in spanish.

You are my love ~Tsubasa Chronicle: Future Soundcape I

Kiss me sweet,
I'm sleeping in silence.
All alone
in ice and snow.

In my dream
I'm calling your name,
you are my love.

In your eyes
I search for my memory
lost in vain
so far in the scenery.
Hold me tight,
and swear again and again
we'll never be apart.

If you could touch my feathers softly,
I'll give you my love.
We set sail in the darkness
of the night,
out to the sea
to find me there,
to find you there,
if you dare...

Kiss me sweet,
I'm sleeping in sorrow
all alone
to see you tomorrow

In my dream
I'm calling your name,
you are my love...
My love....

~From Tsubasa Chronicle:
Future Soundscape I

*sigh* Combination anime and floaty song. Yay! ^_^

How Great thou Art

O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

And when I think, that God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, in humble adoration,
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

How great thou art indeed....

Again with the mangas

It might be...
... a thing called muscle memory.
Yuko talked about it.
There are two types of memory.
What the counscious mind remembers and whatt the body remembers.
The counscious mind is very important, but the body is really important too.
Sometimes when the mind forgets, the body remembers for it.

~Mokona from "Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle"
book 9

... stupid reflexes...

*huge grin on my face*

Our state fair is a great state fair,
Don't miss it, don't even be late.
It's dollars to donuts
That our state fair
Is the best state fair in our state.

~from "State Fair"

YAY FOR THE MINNESOTA STATE FAIR!!!!!

hmm... I should watch this movie sometime...

At least support the troops

Hymn we sang in chruch today:

God bless our troops int air, on land and sea!
Full well we know how dear they are to Thee
Where're they go, whatever they may dare,
God, keep them even in Your gracious care

God bless our troops by night as well by day
While we at home, continually will pray
That war and strife and enmity may cease
And that You bring us everlasting peace

~God Bless Our Troops
(sung to Savior, Again to Thy Dear Name We Raise)

I don't care what side you choose on the war with Iraq, whether the troops should be there or not. The very least you can do is support them. They are risking their lives to bring freedom to those who have so little of it. The smallest thing we can do is pray for them and support them in whatever ways that we can.

Spiritual Lessons with Sora

That's not true! The heart may be weak, and sometimes it may even give in. But I've learned that deep down, there's a light that never goes out!

~Kingdom Hearts

John & Rizpah

"You've given your life to Christ, and rest assured, he will mold and make you into the vessel best designed to his purposes."

"Yes, but I wish I knew what that purpose was."

"You do know. God's will isn't hidden away like the myths and philosophies and knowledge of this world. Jesus told us openly and daily what his will for us is. Love one another. Love one another."

~from "As Sure as the Dawn" by Francine Rivers

Black and White movies are awesome

Please do not use that word. Were I not entirely aware of my duty to my family and to my country, I would not have come back tonight... or indeed ever again!

~Audrey Hepburn in "Roman Holiday"

Audrey Hepburn is amazing. So elegant. Oh, I just love her.

*WARNING*

Now entering super hopeless romantic mode

I wanna run into someones arms
Lie on a bed of roses
I wanna feel just like juliet
I wanna fall in love
I've got a feeling

Everybody wants someone to love
Somebody they can trust
Somebody they can touch
Everybody wants to give their heart away
Everybody needs a little tenderness
To feel understood
To feel passionate
Everybody wants to be in love this way
Everybody wants to be in love this way
I know I do what about you

I wanna be somebody's baby
I want to cry and still feel beautiful
Maybe I really just wanna be myself
I'm not the only one
I got a feeling

Everybody wants someonne to love
Somebody they can trust
Somebody they can touch
Everybody wants to give their heart away
Everybody needs a little tenderness

To feel understood
To feel passionate
Everybody wants to be in love this way
Everybody wants to be in love this way
I know I do
What about you
I do I do doesn't everybody wanna give their heart away
I do I do dosen't everybody wanna be in love this way
Cause I do

I wanna feel like an angel
I want to fly on a beam of moonlight
I wanna see heaven from the inside
I wanna feel just like juliet
Juliet juliet

~"Love This Way", by Eden's Crush

...ok, so i kinda do, i kinda don't... i can wait longer... i need to wait longer....



Yeah, I know, it's an old song and by a group that no longer exists, but it's still pretty good. It quenches the hopeless romantic thirst in me...

I have started to make a "Songs that make me feel floaty inside" playlist.
You all know that you have one, or want to have one...

What am I thinking?

I'm fifteen for a moment
Caught in between ten and twenty
and I'm just dreaming
counting the ways to where you are

I'm twenty-two for a moment
and she feels better than ever
and we're on fire
making our way back from mars


Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
Fifteen
There's never a wish better than this
When you only got a hundred years to live

I'm thirty-three for a moment
I'm still the man
but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way, babe
A family on my mind


I'm fourty-five for a moment
The sea is high
and I'm heading into a crisis
chasing the years of my life


Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose yourself within a morning star
Fifteen, I'm alright with you
Fifteen
There's never a wish better than this
When you only got a hundred years to live

How the time goes by
Suddenly, you're wise
Another blink of an eye, sixty-seven is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...

I'm ninety-nine for a moment
Dying for just another moment
and I'm just dreaming
counting the ways to where you are

Fifteen, there's still time for you
Twenty-Two, I feel her, too
Thirty-Three, you're on your way
Every day's a new day...

Fifteen, there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey, fifteen
There's never a wish better than this
when you only got a hundred years to live

~"100 years" by Five for Fighting

... i have a bunch of time left...
... i can wait for stuff....

Yay for DDR/Techno songs!!!

Oh, thinking about all our younger years
There was only you and me
We were young and wild and free
Now nothing can take you away from me
We've been down that road before
But that's over now
You keep me coming back for more

Baby, you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms,
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

Oh, once in your life you find someone
Who will turn your world around
Pick you up when your feeling down
Now nothing could change what you mean to me
There's a lot that I could say
But just hold me now
Cause our love will light the way

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms,
I'm finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven

I've been waiting for so long
For something to arrive
For love to come along
Now our dreams are coming true
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you

Baby you're all that I want
When you're lying here in my arms
Im finding it hard to believe
We're in heaven
And love is all that I need,
And I found it there in your heart
It isn't too hard to see
We're in heaven
Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
We're in heaven

~Heaven, by DJ Sammy

don't read too much into it

If only I could truely quote parts of mangas on here...

Here's the best I can do:

Li?
You are a really kind person.
I know you don't want to make Sakura unhappy.
But...
Sakura isn't the type to hold on to sadness forever.
If you confess your feelings...
...she'll accept them...
...and give you the answer that's best for her.

~Tomoyo from "Cardcaptor Sakura;
Master of the Clow", Book 4

... i love this series...

The Second Tuesday

I asked Morrie if he felt sorry for himself.

"Sometimes in the mornings," he said. "That's when I mourn. I feel around my body, I move my fingers and my hands- whatever I can still move- and I mourn what I've lost. I mourn the slow, insidious way in which I'm dying. But then I stop mourning."

Just like that?

"I give myslef a god cry if I need it. But then I concentrate on all the good things still in my life. On the people who are coming to see me. On the sotries I'm going to hear. On you- if it's Tuesday. Because we're Tuesday people."

I grined. Tuesday people.

"Mitch, I don't allow myself any more self-pity than that. A little each morning, a few tears, that's all"

I thought about all the people I knew who spent many of their waking hours feeling sorry for themsleves. How useful will it be to put a daily limit on self-pity. Just a few tearful minutes, then on with the day. And if Morrie could do it, with such a horrible disease...

~Tuesdays With Morrie, by Mitch Albom

... stupid PMS, i don't want/need this right now...

*sigh* Ok, my few minutes are over.
