Through the LORD’s mercies we are not consumed,
Because His compassions fail not.
They are new every morning;
Great is Your faithfulness.
“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!”

new
down the backroads...
riding in my dad's car, with my new digital rebel xti (yay!) on hand... he sped and i attempted to take pictures. haha. it was quite interesting to find what actually turned out [most were blurry since it was tricky to get the camera to focus on something as the car was moving quite fast]. i have a long ways to go with mastering the features and such of my new canon. here's a start -
canon + iphoto + photoshop cs3 = happy bee.
christmas
Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!"
luke 2:8-24 [nkj]

i completely forgot about this guy. i got this last year for christmas. i haven't used it since then. i was planning on buying a 35mm adapter for it, but i found a site that showed how to diy. that saves me... $10 + shipping. ha! so hopefully tomorrow, or sometime in the near future, i'll be able to mod it, and use it finally! and maybe someday, acquire the polaroid back.

sunny days
i found an unmarked mixed cd in my car, and it turned out to be a summer mix i made a few years back, and of course it was kicked off with the anthem of summer - Summer Breeze. i had to stop it 'coz it was making me long for summer, and we all know it's a long ways away. and christmas is coming for crying in the night! but since i missed polaroiding as well, here's an "ode" if you will, to summer and polaroids.
i really really wish wish wish that it'd snow soon. on christmas day perhaps? i know i know... wishful thinking. =/

His grace is sufficient
i am no longer anxious about anything, as i realize that He is able to carry out His will for me. it does not matter where He places me, or how. that is for Him to consider, not me, for in the easiest positions He will give me grace, and in the most difficult ones His grace is sufficient.

feeling blah
it's 1:46 am, and i'm not sleepy =\ i wanna just fall asleep because i've run out of things to do. i suppose reading could work. yea, i'll do that next. i had the best dinner tonite. the steak was perfect , and the salmon was just plain yummy. i am blessed to have parents who cook good. yum. hmmm. i've been listening to a lot of foo fighters lately. the pretender is my favorite song out of their latest album. it gets me so pumped up... for nothing really. haha. we have some guests. both pastors. pastor bulalayao is going to seattle with my dad for some sort of meeting. oh and pastor aberin will be going with them too, but he's coming back because he's the guest speaker at church on sunday. they were like a bunch of kids, playing wii and stuff. oh, and of course, karaoke. they sounded like drunk cowboys singing "country road take me home to the place where i beloooong". no they were not drunk. they just sounded like they were. and they were loud, i could hear them all the way up here in my room when i paused my music. then i laughed so hard. so tonite was one of those nights where, i wanted to do something, but couldn't figure out what i wanted to do. i just felt... blah. didn't wanna go out. staying in was getting me restless too. i hate that feeling. now i can't decide. should i read pride & prejudice or narnia? or just stare at the ceiling? hmmm. is the weekend over yet? =[
