Late night blogging #4
Because that's how cold it is in my house.
Telling you now, this is gonna be a really random blog... I'm probably awake because my sleeping pattern is pretty messed up at the moment, even more than usual. Anyways since it's the last week of classes, today was my last Tuesday, I'm only mentioning this because this semester was Two Class Tuesday which I really enjoyed. However, I totally didn't even have a two class Tuesday today, since I didn't go to my first class today. Soo lame, you know those days when it's so cold you don't want to wake up so you stay in bed, then next thing you know it's like 45 min after... yeah that was today, well it's been like that the past few days ha... I even tried to give myself motivation to wake up early for class today, which was so lame... it was to put on makeup for school tomorrow (I normally don't put on makeup, actually I normally don't dress up for school...), so I would have to be able to wake up early to put it on... Total fail. At least with me leaving an hour later than usual, I did something quite helpful... I woke up my sister haha, and she totally was running late and she had an exam this morning. So my waking up late wasn't totally useless...
It was a weird Tuesday, I felt like I didn't really have to go to class today. In German class we were suppose to take a makeup quiz to replace our lowest score and then get our first draft back but, he wasn't done editing them. And my quiz scores are pretty decent, so whatever. I had the whole idea in my head, I shouldn't have came to school today... but that would just be me being lazy and laziness is so not God glorifying.
Random Post, Random List
1. I'M FREEZING.
2. This week is going by so slow.
3. I don't really like chick flicks. HAHA.
4. I've been watching old videos lately.
5. I'm sad that there's no bible study tomorrow haha, and that I missed the last C&C bible study of the year haha.
6. It's okay, I can use the time to spend in my own personal studies in the Word.
7. Thinking of replaying Kingdom Hearts 2 over break, or finish Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations.
8. Winter break... patiently waiting.

I totally shouldn't be on here.
I can't help it, cause I don't know what else I need to know for tomorrows lab practicum... Man, totally just have to hang on for two more weeks, til winter break.. well that is, only if the Lord hasn't called me home by then. Another opportunity to practice that patience again.
So today, I as I was freezing in my room while studying; I decided to, turn on a heater in my room, then go eat dinner which happened to be my favorite fried fish and rice (no, really) and make some hot tea, cause I dislike the cold and love tea aha. Anyways, then after I prayed and started eating, I realized while freezing, that I was eating my favorite food, drinking uhh I guess you can say a favorite drink, and had a heater warming up my room as I eat and drink this wonderful meal haha and that was when I totally felt grateful. I mean here I am hungry, freezing in cold weather while studying for a final; then I just see God's providence right in front of my face.
I'm hungry, and I've been provided food on the table once again.
I'm freezing, but I'm blessed with a roof over my head and a heater!
I'm studying for a final, which means I've been given an opportunity to go to college.
Like seriously, the Lord has been so gracious to me and I'm very glad that He (not myself, but Him. *Psalm 16:2) has been reminding me that He has. It reminded me something that the senior pastor at my local church (www.sbcac.org), Pastor Felix said while preaching two Sundays ago, I remember him saying something along the lines of "God sent us problems so we will praise Him." So there I was with problems somewhat, and then totally praising Him! An amazing God, He is. Sorry I can't think of a verse at the moment that totally goes with His providence, forgive me. But, how bout you share a verse that does (: I'd totally appreciate it. I can't really think straight right now, and yes I know it's not an excuse... Okay, I should get back to studying... or sleep ha.
Soli Deo Gloria!

Late night blogging #3
Well it's not that late, but this is just another random post. So I'm totally listening to a symphony video right now..
The film score for this movie is so pretty!
Admit it, you guys agree. At 3:38 is the best part! Makes me want to get a new A-string even more... not like it's gonna make me sound like the violins in this video though, especially at 1:06.
Man, that John Williams is one talented dude. However I know someone who is beyond greater than anyone and above all. Yes, Yahweh himself, who I just want to praise for totally humbling me on Monday night. Even though school has gotten quite serious with all the work and challenges given to me, a few minutes after I started to somewhat cry... and I usually don't cry, I was able to find comfort in my heavenly Father, through His Word.
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing... Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him. Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. - James 1:2-4,12-15
What would giving up and not trying anymore get me? I would just be relying on myself to get through trials, basically having faith in myself... which is totally useless, because I haven't done anything. Unlike Christ, He has done something. Through His death and resurrection, God's elect has been saved from God's wrath. Just as the apostle Paul writes in his lovely letter to the church in Ephesus, " For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God..." (Ephesians 2:8) and this is why I don't have faith in myself, but in Christ, and this is why through trials, I have joy because the situation where I am at now, I can use it to give glory to God. You see, I wanted to give up and quit for my own selfish wants; although I wouldn't be bearing the image of God. Christ who was the exact replica of the image of God, didn't quit on anything, the only thing He gave up was His life, for His body (or the universal church)! What a gracious Lord we have! And I just praise Him for reminding me of all of this and for allowing me to strengthen my faith by bringing such a trial (nothing serious) into my life. So, I ask for prayers with school not only for me, but for everyone else in school. Finals are coming up, and winter break is almost here! Also if anyone has any prayer requests, let me know! I'll gladly pray for you.
Wowww... I don't know how I went from Jurassic Park to prayer requests... haha okay, well whatever. Goodnight!

Number 11.
Aww man, I missed it by a minute.. I normally write out the date but it's still 11:12 11/11/2011 ... haha it's okay. Today isn't really significant for me, but 11 just happens to be my favorite number. Ever since elementary school, I remember saying that 11 was my favorite number because my birthday was in November and it's the 11th month of the year and since my birthday is 11/01/1991, I remember thinking if 1 should be my favorite number instead, but I thought that it was too simple and boring for a favorite number. Back then, I liked to have unique favorite things, so all the things that have been my favorite since elementary probably has some weird reasoning behind it. So I leave you tonight with a list.
11 favorites.
1. Eleven is my favorite number.
2. Green is my favorite color.
3. James is my favorite book of the Bible so far... However all the books of the Bible are good, even though I haven't read all of it...
4. Dragon Ball Z is my favorite Cartoon.
5. Trunks is my favorite Character. Hence why my dog was named after him.
6. Oceans Eleven is my favorite movie all time. Just realized that it had Eleven in it's title..
7. The Lion King is my favorite Disney movie.
8. The Violin is my favorite instrument. Not trying to be biased, but I love the sound of one.
9. Nitrogen is my favorite element.
10. Seafood is my favorite type of food.
11. Heist movies are my favorite type of movies.
