Right Here Waiting

Oceans apart, day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice, on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to never
how can we say forever

Wherever you go, whatever you do
I will be right here, waiting for you
Whatever it takes, or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all The times
That I thought would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now
Oh can't you see it baby,
You've got me going crazy

Sands, Pebbles, and Rocks


A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in
front of him. When class began, wordlessly he picked up a large
empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with rocks, rocks
about 2" in diameter.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.
So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them
into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles, of course,
rolled into the open areas between the rocks.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The students laughed. The professor picked up a box of sand and
poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

"Now," said the professor, "I want you to recognize that this is
your life. The rocks are the important things - your family, your
partner, your health, your children - anything that is so important
to you that if it were lost, you would be nearly destroyed.

"The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your
house, your car.

"The sand is everything else. The small stuff.

My Favourite Anime Lately

Well.. I really love DNAngel anime since I was a little girl. I love its story, its characters, its graphic, anything about it! And years after that anime ended, I still not have found anything as cool as DNAngel yet. Until few months ago, my friend, Reyvateilia gave me an anime. An amazing one. CLANNAD. This anime.. was really cool. This anime was one of the most saddest, but also one of the most funniest anime I've ever seen. Not just that, the story is just like our daily life, so we can understand it well and touched so easily. Scene by scene amazed me and I learned a lot from this anime. It told me how even a modest life working at a bakery can be full of love and excitement. Maybe the ending seem to come out of nowhere, but without spoiling it, I see a powerful way to show that a life filled with suffering and love still better than a boring life with no risk at all. Nagisa and Tomoya really taught me many things. Thanks a lot, Rey! But DNAngel is still my favourite also! :p

A Barber Story

One day, a barber said that he doesn't believe in God. His customer asked him back: "Why do you think like that?"
"Well, look at there, at the street. Tell me, if God does exist, why there are sick people? Why there a lot of people suffer?" the barber said. "If God does exist, there will nobody sick or suffering. I can't imagine that Almighty God let all of those bad things happen to us," he continued.

His customer was quite, she didn't want to argue with him. The barber finished his job and the customer left.
Few moments later, she saw a guy with long and dirty hair. That guy was so messy. She went back to the barber shop and shouted: "You know what? Actually, there is NO barber."

The barber was angry. "How can you say that?! I'm here and I just cut your hair a moment ago!"
"No way! There is no barber. If barber really exist, there will be no guy with long dirty messy hair out there!" said the customer.
"But the barber does exist! It was their own fault. Why don't they come to me? I can fix them up," said that barber proudly.

"THAT'S IT! That's the point!" the customer replied.
"God does exist! But people don't come to Him, people don't search for Him! That's why there are lot of people fall into sickness and pain."

And the barber stunned in silent.

Blueberry Muffin

A muffin is an American English name for a type of bread that is baked in small portions. Many forms are somewhat like small cakes or cupcakes in shape, although they usually are not as sweet as cupcakes and generally lack frosting. Savory varieties, such as cornbread muffins, also exist. They generally fit in the palm of an adult hand, and are intended to be consumed by an individual in a single sitting.

Outside the United States of America, muffin can also refer to a disk-shaped muffin, usually called an English Muffin outside of England. As American-style muffins are also sold in Commonwealth countries, the term muffin can refer to either product, with the context usually making clear which is meant.

There are many varieties and flavors of muffins made with a specific ingredient such as blueberries, chocolate chips, cucumbers, raspberry, cinnamon, pumpkin, date, nut, lemon, banana, orange, peach, strawberry, boysenberry, almond, and carrot, baked into the muffin. Muffins are often eaten for breakfast; alternatively, they may be served for tea or at other meals.

Here is the recipe for blueberry muffin I got from allrecipes.com :

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1/3 cup sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Combine the egg, milk, oil and vanilla; add to the dry ingredients just until moistened. Gently fold in blueberries. Fill greased or paper-line muffin cups two-thirds full.
  2. Bake at 375 degrees F for 25-27 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
  3. Blueberry muffins are ready!

Jesus Love Us

Last Wednesday I went to a trip called Antiokhia with my friends. We stayed at Gadog, Puncak, West Java, Indonesia for 3 days. There, we met a lot of new friends. We sang a lot songs and danced. It was so exciting. But the important thing was, we listened to a lot of presentations about God and us.
There were some videos on the presentations. I was really touched by those videos.
As soon as I went home, I searched through internet and found this amazing site.



There are many more videos like this at www.donghaeng.net. Praise the Lord :)
