monthsary... yes, it exists =)

"surrender"

once a soul with no direction
a shameful life and worldly motivation
unaware and ignorant of my actions
not knowing my life's destination



no peace living a selfish life
only darkness surrounds my sight
the life i find worth living
so dull, empty, and boring

where is the light i seek
a troubled soul is hard to keep
tired of living this kind of life
full of darkness and full of strife

worldly things kept me distracted
brought me low and left me wasted
empty handed and all alone
'twas the moment i found my home

this experience made me wonder
all i had to do was SURRENDER
a meaningful life after the pain
a wonderful sight after the rain

this is a poem i wrote inside the card i gave to my girlfriend on our 1st monthsary. we had a great time with our friends, celebrating our first month together. we had dinner at el cuento @ glorietta4, talked a while @ starbucks 7650 and gave her the card together with a wallet-size pic of us.

that's all for now... back to overtime work!!! *sigh*

i have my limitations...

and when the going gets though, it's God's grace that keeps me going.

thank you God for strengthening me when i'm weak.

My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. —2 Corinthians 12:9

so far so hard...

it's not easy being a nihongo gakkusei (japanese student [direct english translation]), i've been memorizing japanese vocabularies since day one. my brain gets drained at the end of the day because of the all the things we're doing in our class. a quiz first thing in the morning, lesson afterwards, then a 10min break, resume lesson, lunch break, study SFJ, composition, 10 minute break, hearing, and another quiz before the class ends... and this is done EVERYDAY!!! argh!!!

it's a good thing that i have a guitar at home so i can be relieved after a stressful day...

also, i'm excited for a post valentine date... i'm planning to watch a concert together with my kanojoo(girlfriend) and some of my churchmates. hopefully things will push through. anyways, it's a concert i knew of because of the wonderful world of blogging =). credit goes out to daxi ;) anyone else who's interested?!?!?! =)



enough venting... that's all for now folks... utchi e kaitaidesu (i'm going back home).

sayonara!!!
