2011 09 21. Bethany Dillon.


















I got a confession to make.
The year was 2004, I was 19. I swore to myself, if I ever get to be a famous, well respected musician, I would marry this girl; Bethany Dillon.

Why Beth? Because even back then when she was a 15 year old girl; she radiates a sense of peacefulness and maturity; a powerful contra to the old, boisterous Red Misery.
I know, I know, it sounded like a case of pedophilia, but we're only four years apart, calm down everyone.

7 years later, I'm still a nobody.
On the other hand, she's married, and recently gave birth to a beautiful daughter.
Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely happy for her.

One thing remains the same; I truly admire her Godliness.
I wanna be like her; closer to God, each and everyday.

2011 09 07. If I was a female I'd be Aubrey.

Trying to finish the book of Job while applying for real jobs online.
I also wanna take music major at Biola.
And watching Aubrey Plaza's clips all over the net in between. She is one of the most interesting people in this earth. By the way, anybody else develop a crush over her?

If I was Irish I'd be Conan; if I was a female comedian I'd be Aubrey.

2011 09 06.

Took Mum to the immigration center. Not a successful trip; mission not accomplished because of complications from the rules, but an okay trip nonetheless.
Then my parents took me to Hometown Buffet at 6 pm cause they know I'm fasting and I don't have money to buy anything. The result: food coma. Not a good feeling; but I'm thankful of all the food I was able to shove inside my jejunum.
A few hours after my buddy Alex took me out to In N Out Burgers and got me fries. My intestines almost erupted the very moment I downed them fries.
But again, thank God for all the food and blessings for today.

And oh, I accidentally poked my right eye with my car key.

2011 09 05. Yes.

Yes Man. Watch it once. Watch it twice. Watch it a million times.

Last night as I was about to go home from church, my sisters came by my car, hugged me and smiled at me.
Seeing people you care about smile at you just eases any kind of pain from the suffering you're going through.

That's why I took a snap every time see Allison smile as I was re-watching this movie for a millionth time.
I can't lose my optimism, under any circumstances.
Yes is the word. Yes. Say it. Yes.

2011 09 02. Annie.

Went to my local water shop around my parents area, the owner asked "Do you still play music?"
I thought, how did he know?
Must be my parents. They must've told him.
And oh, Annie Clark's photos on Spin magazine. Breathtaking.

2011 09 01. I don't wanna go to hell.

Last night me, Jovan and Darren were learning about punishments in hell. In 1995, 7 youths were taken to hell and back so they can witness and tell us what they saw. I can't bear the pain and anguish that these lost souls go through; it frightens me. We talked and prayed till the early morning; begged for God's mercy. Jesus paid the heavy price on the cross so we don't have to suffer in the afterlife. It's never too late, my friend. Lets inherit the kingdom of heaven.
For the suffering that we go through everyday in this cruel world is nothing compared to the condemnation of hell.

1 Corinthians 6:9-11
"Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God."
