King

Psalm 46:10 --
"Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth."

Isaiah 40:28-31 --
"Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.

He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.

Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;

but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint."

1 John 5-7 --
"This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another,"

There's no denying the truth.

Dynamo of Volition

.. This is a post about.. well, nothing! I just feel like wasting a few more minutes before I hit the sack because I've been tired the past couple days. Well, what to rant about then? Obama will be the president of the U.S of A for the next term and here's to a better future for the States! Congrats Obama, you deserved this sweet victory.

I am beginning to fail in my hockey pool. I can barely hold onto my first place now as I see three maybe four teams creep up on me. I am trying to hold myself from making too many changes to my team because this is just a bust period for me. If I make too many changes, things could go downhill for the rest of the season. Hang in there!

The NHL schedules suck, period. They get progressively worse every year, I mean, seriously. The way the games are formatted nowadays is just horrible. You could have a 4 day span where you watch your team 3 times, and then have to wait 4 or 5 days just to see the next game. It makes me angry to have the schedule in chunks. I'd rather see it every second day, that way I'd have something to be excited about each day. But what the heck, it's not my job and it's really hard creating schedules so I shouldn't complain. But on that note, I am looking forward to the next few games the Oilers play. They will be very intense as it will be very challenging for us to beat Pittsburgh, Jersey and the Rangers.

Just want to tell you guys something..

"I've got the dynamo of volition,
po-pole position, automatic transmission
with l-ow emissions.
I'm a brand new addition to the old edition
with the love unconditional.
And I'm a drama abolitionist,
damn no opposition to my proposition:
half of a man, half magician,
half a politician holdin' the mic.
Like ammunition, my vision is simple as light.
There ain't no reason we should be in a fight
demolition, get a vote to say what you'd like.
Procreation propositions already written by themselves,
heck is for the people not believin' in gosh.

Good job, get 'em up way high, gimme gimme that high five."

-- Don't let your mind stop you from having a good time.

November

Halloween just past, and I had a pretty fun time at church helping with the Hallelujah Party we decided to revive after many years of absence. We set up some pretty wicked games for the kids to play in all night so they can win some stuff and have some fun. Once again, the dark maze made of cardboards was the unofficial main event of our games. Kau did a really good job with this one. It was incredibly squishy, even for someone like me, but it was much better than the 1st one we did many years back.

Aside from Halloween, I was surprised at the productiveness of myself throughout this week of school. I attempted study each day from monday to even today, sunday. I was successful on every day except wednesday. Wednesday was probably my least productive day where I only studied for an hour. The real reason for the sudden surge in producitivity was because I have been blessed with three back to back midterms tomorrow starting bright and early at 9:00am and ending at 12:00pm. Yep, three hours of midterms, what fun! So I managed to get through everything I need to know. The only concern is hoping my memory will hold up because of the amount of info I need to store in my head. Hopefully I can do well and raise my horrifying averages to something less scary. Good luck to everyone entering round two of midterms!

Two months of university gone, and it feels like it's only been a few weeks. Pace is insanely fast and I have no idea what happened to the last two months. I will attempt to, at the beginning of each month, write up some goals that I want to achieve.. Why? It's the only way I can be productive. I have to make schedules for myself throughout a week just so I can do homework and stuff like that. So you might say it takes more to get me going, which is probably true.

Definitely looking to get back on track with school this month. I need to set myself straight and keep up with each days materials: this means I have to probably read each chapter of soc or psych before I start them, take some time to review what I did each day, get homework done fast. I have the confidence that I can do this, odd but true, I am feeling I can turn this around really soon (= Since I work fast and learn fast, I will have a bit of free time, this also comes as being an arts student, haha. So I am definitely hoping I can: start up devotions again, find some new ways to inspire, practice some guitar, improve my stinkin' hockey pool, do something new and inventive! Like writing a song or something, it's been a long time goal of mine.

Welp, definitely a challenge that I can succeed in. Let's start by doing well on tomomrrows midterms. Hopefully I will be able to do decent, I know I am not the kind of guy that can memorize every detail, but I have enough info in my head that I know generally how everything works.

I am also looking forward to the new Tales of Symphonia game titled Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. The sequel to the first one, brings a bit of hype!

Fall term break, here I come!

SUPERPOWERS!

If I were to have one, it'd be some sorta telekinesis thing. The same power that Matt Parker from Heroes has -- except better. It'd be my kinda thing to be able to control things with my brain. I'd be able to control people's minds by putting thoughts into them and making them see things. On top of that I'd be able to move objects with my mind. Wouldn't that be something? I wouldn't mind at all if I had to start of weaksauce and train myself up; it'd be worth every moment of training.

Sorry I'm watching Heroes and Naruto too much. But hey, a kid can dream right?

SUPERPOWERS!
