All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renenwed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king. I'm just Ron (: br />

“Let’s face it - English is a crazy language. There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England or French fries in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat. We take English for granted. But if we explore its paradoxes, we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor is it a pig. And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn’t the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices? Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat? In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital? Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out and in which an alarm goes off by going on. English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race (which, of course, isn’t a race at all). That is why, when the stars are out, they are visible, but when the lights are out, they are invisible.” 
that's what faith can do
Everybody falls sometimes, gotta find the strength to rise from the ashes, and make a new beginning. I tear/cry every time i watch this. It's so applicable. With so many new commitments/ studies not working out well. Self-doubt, condemnation, being so disheartened and discouraged. Faith ; what a word. sometimes it just feels like its more than i can take, and i just want to turn around and say I GIVE UP. but.. life is so much more. Anyone can feel the ache, you think its more than you can take, but you're stronger, stronger than you know. Don't you give up now, the sun will soon be shining.
sundays
Today was. pretty . goodHad a nice one hour plus talk with kor ivan today over teh (;
Recently, I felt quite detached from everything. Detached from God, detached from friends, detached from my family, detached from studies. Cried so bad during service today. From the first note of the syn till the last strum of the guitar. I think i scared crys :P Your love never fails, never gives up, never runs out on me Cried a little harder every time they repeated those lines. Felt so overwhelmed by God's abundant and undying love, the lyrics of every song felt like it was God comforting me, pouring his love and care out to me. After a while, it felt like a stone was lifted from my heart and i could finally breathe again (: Had lunch with my parents, it felt really good. I've been quite an ingrate the past few months and its a simple meal but i'm sure they enjoyed it as much as i did. Adults talk bs too :P You are good, You are good When there's nothing good in me You are love, You are love On display for all to see You are light, You are light When the darkness closes in You are hope, You are hope You have covered all my sin. ryc 2011
     Haven't had so much fun in a looonngggg time :') Day one Emceeing was definitely fun. Bern and I practically slept/ate through all the boring talks backstage :P Since I was groupless, i got the chance to mingle around with people from schools and make some new friends. My toes also hurt really bad that day. Need to get new heels. OKAY SERIOUSLY MG GIRLS NEED TO GET A LIFE. E mae, Sof and I were geirfglierjkhglrehtihreiht about the whole as charles and sof calls it "kpop" thing. Day two DA AMAZING RACE Okay so it wasn't really THAT amazing. At first my group got really frustrated and bored at CSM. So tried to hype things up and get their spirits up. BUT NOOO. LOANDBEHOLD. We had to wait for 1 hour at our next station. BUT that was when things changed (THANK GOODNESS) We started playing dare and dare, polar bear, murderer, telling stupid jokes. We had some pretty wacky dares alright. I got dared to ask for some random stranger's number. Thank goodness the next stranger that walked up was a woman :p There wasn't enough time to finish the race so we headed back to school. THAT WAS WHEN THE REAL FUN STARTED :') We really bonded over building the (failed) sculpture and don's winged explanation got us an ( assumed self-consolation ) seven out of ten :p Played murderer again, and again, and again, it was hiliarious (: Dinner was alright, but overall. RYC helped me get my mind off things and to really have fun and make new friends, so i'm thankful for it. Afterall, this earth is ours, this earth is yours, and This Earth is Mine - Welcome to this years Regional Youth Conference 2011...
