What Is Your Battle Cry?

Lo! Who is that, striding along the candy store! It is Grace, hands clutching a meaty axe! She cries ominously:

"By Odin's mighty spear, I shall avenge my ancestors!!!"

Yay! I have my own battle cry. Usually, I grunt, scream, or yell, "fFREAKING!" But, "By Odin's mighty spear, I shall avenge my ancestors!!!" sounds pretty cool. Might be too long. I'll start mumbling it soon, though.

So this week has been pretty hectic. I've been studying like crazy. I never thought that I could study for so long. My brain has been fried. So if i seem a little ditzy, it's because I am. I become absent minded and a little kookoo. =)

I'm also pooped. I had pulled an all nighter for my history exam on thursday night/friday morning. At like 6:40, I laid down for maybe a minute or so, to have a 20 minute power nap. The next thing I know, it was half past 8, 30 minutes into class! So, I mad dashed over to Tidwell Bible Building to see if I could at least have the last half of class time to work on my test. I open the door, and Parnell shoos me outside. I thought, "bloody hell, I'm too late". But he comes out and asks me what happen. I told him the truth, and he told me to come back at 2 to take it in a different class.

I thought, wow. That's so nice of him. I was so sure that I couldn't take it. So, for the rest of the morning, I studied my butt off because I really reallly reallly wanted to ACE the test. 2 oclock rolls on in, and i meet my fate of my first history test. As i was working on it, i was sooo amazed that I knew what was going on. yay! So yeah, I hope i did well. If not an A, I'm hoping for a high B. *crosses fingers*

THEN! I went swimming with Julia! It was awesome. I ADORE SWIMMING! I didn't know how much I missed doing laps. Oh, I seriously could have been there forever~! Afterwards, i went back to shower and rest before dinner at Chilli's and AFC. It was maybe 5:20 by then, i think. It hadn't occured to me that I hadn't had sleep for a day. *shrugs* But anyway, yeah AFC was awesome. We studied from Mark and talked about faith. Afterwards, we talked about missions. I missed talking about mission trips and how God imparts a passion for missionaries to just go out and preach the word. It was quite refreshing to say the least.

Afterwards, we went to Roberto and Jairo's (sp?) place for movie and games. We watched Harry Potter 2 and ate VELVET CAKE! forreals, that stuff rocks. By this time, I was knocking out. My head felt like mush. I was dead tired.

AND I didn't get much sleep on friday night either~! And time seems to pass by reallly slow. So it feels like ages since I've been home. Which is good or bad, depending on how you see it. But today, to keep it short because my fingers hurt, i went to library to meet hyunji and hanna, we ate at chilli's, and we roamed through walmart. okay time to sleep. church tomorrow! woot woot!

the end.

yesterday night, I was in the lab just checking email, browsing the net, and avoid having to study. and then suddenly, I burped reaally loud, obnoxiously loud. No inhibition. No trying to cage the gas. I just let out a big one. It's one of those burps where you know you've eaten way too much and had an obscene amount of Dr. Pepper. so yeah. i thought it was funny. Perhaps, I'm the only who thought it was funny. I was giggling afterwards... =)

"People have always said, Christians should be colorblind, not caring about the color of other people's skin. But how is that reflective of who God is? God is not colorblind. He enjoys and takes delight in diversity, and we should too. We should not view a white person and an Asian person as the same, because they aren't, culturally. And God takes delight in that, so when someone says or prays that we be colorblind, please don't. Recognize people's ethnicities and their culture, and realize that we are not all the same, and respect that difference in everyone."

"All Creatures"
Sr. Francis of Assisi

All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voice and with us sing
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Thou burning sun with golden beam,
Thou silver moon with softer gleam!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Thou rushing wind that art so strong,
Ye clouds that sail in heaven along,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Thou rising morn, in praise rejoice,
Ye lights of evening, find a voice!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Dear mother earth, who day by day
Unfoldest blessing on our way,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
The flowers and fruits that in thee grow,
Let them His glory also show!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

Let all things their Creator bless,
And worship Him in humbleness,
O praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son,
And praise the Spirit, Three in One!
O praise Him, O praise Him!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
I had to take this test for Chapel. It sums up who you are through a series of questions.

You focus deeply on your values and devote your life to chasing ideals... you often draw people together around a common purpose and work to find a place for each person within the group. You're creative and seek new ideas and possibilities. You quietly push for what's important to you, and rarely give up. You might be somewhat gentle or have a good sense of humor, you could be hard to get to know and overlooked by others...you like to make the world more in line with your vision of perfection.

If you're a teenager, you probably have a bit of a rebellious streak. You might argue with others who hold different values than yourself..you probably have a small close-knit group of friends...you can relax around these pals and be pretty entertaining, since you see the world in a different and special way... that's why your posts on the Storm Palace are so great!

Inner harmony is the most important thing to you. You're sensitive and loyal. You have a strong sense of honor concerning your personal values. You'd rather communicate your feelings in writing...

You do best in a flexible situation where the teacher/collegue takes a personal interest in you...you like to interact with your peers, but not TOO much ...you have both creativity and flexibility, and you like that about yourself....you don't get bogged down by details...your job must be fun and it must be meaningful to you....you don't wanna feel conspicuous so you'll sell yourself short just to avoid the spotlight...

You can be a gentle and subtle leader...being indirect and inclusive of others...you don't confront people head-on, but rather work with 'em to get the job done....you lead with your values in mind and let these guide you...you don't like conflict, so you don't confront situations directly.. you'd rather wait for a situation to work itself out....

Leisure and kickin' back is really important to you. sometimes it is hard to separate work from play, huh? when you find a new recreational pursuit, you do a lot of reading up on it...most of your leisure things are done alone, like reading, listening to music, and even BBSing....when you want to be sociable, you can be very charming and outgoing..

Love is a very deep commitment to you...it's not easily attained...you probably pick out flaws or are disappointed when he or she doesn't match up to your ideal as to what love should be like...first dates are very well set up to make sure everything is taken care of so it can be "just right." you might have a hard time sharing feelings about others...you tell so many feelings inside that you forget to tell your partner that you love 'em or whatever....

If the relationship goes bad, you take it to heart, but probably don't tell many others about it....you have a tendency to overreact, huh? Other things to watch for...don't get so caught up in your dreams that you don't consider others' points-of-view...you might not adjust your vision to the facts of a situation...you may need a "reality check" once in a while... also, don't try to please everyone and be so hesitant to criticize... don't delay projects 'cause you're holding out for perfection...it's not gonna come...don't get overly critical because no one matches your perfect ideals... you could lash out and it could get ugly.

INFP: "I Never Find Perfection"


Yeah, that's what I was afraid of. Ahh well. Nice to be reminded of what kind of personality I have.

Okay, so today is a good day, i think. I prayed extensively about "lover boy" and God has, once again, made me realize that I simply am not ready. Even if I was ready, I shouldn't think so much about it. Talked with Wynette for quite awhile and it helped a good deal. =) thanks buddy ol' pal.

Hopefully, more deep revelations will be revealed within the next day or so.

Please build me up.

i feel torn down, beat up, burned and thrashed.

Delicate me. Unable to grasp coherent language.

Please save me from my bondage.

Save me from myself.

Help me.

Rescue me from the quicksand.
