BREAKING NEWS: Singapore to host Formula One Grand Prix in 2008
hahaha... i don't know whether i'm allowed to saw this, but yeah it's official. reliable sources state that F1 supremo, Bernie Ecclestone has signed a cotract for the hosting rights in 2008.
HAHA so cool huh? and it'll be the first ever night race for a grand prix.
on another note... school is going to be crazy this week! i'll get back around eleven from tuesday to saturday! sigh
i don't know what's wrong with me now!! sigh... it just feels all so.. constipated!! i just want to shout my lungs out, but i just don't know what it's about. everything seems to be going well, yet there's something, or someone bugging me! God help me!!
i dunno why... but i have a feeling it's because i'm supposed to be leading worship this sunday and that the prince of this world is trying to stop me from being a vessel of God. it's seriously one of the worse feelings in the world. and suddenly, i have all these feelings of guilt and shame, and of not being worthy. but i know that these words are not the words of the living God!
Psalm 51:16-17 For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it; You do not delight in burnt offering. The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit, A broken spirit and a contrite heart- These, O God, You will not despise.
i would rather become a lousier musician with the heart of worship! oh God, teach me Your ways.
hmmm.. sorry if i seem kind of emo right now. it's just that that's the way many people around me feel. and it's seriously getting to me!
