He’s the reason why I sing.

It’s the weekend ya’ll, it’s the weekend.  Whew!  Thank God!  I’m about to go home in a few minutes, just killin’ time now. 

Movies I’m looking forward to watching:

1.  Running with Scissors
2.  Stranger than Fiction
3.  Flag of our Fathers
4.  Fearless
5.  Hollywoodland
6.  All the King’s Men
7.  The Departed
8.  The Science of Sleep
9.  Bobby
10.  Happy Feet

Anyway, have a good weekend!

Is that picture on the header of my blog a picture of some part of Manhattan?  Hmmm…it looks like it is. 

Bobby Deen’s one of People’s Hottest Bachelors of 2006!  (Ain’t he cute?!) 

If you haven’t seen his show Road Tasted on Food Network, along with his brother, Jamie, I suggest that you check it out.  They’re the most adorable, fun, food-tv show hosts.  They’re the sons of Paula Deen (Paula Deen’s Home Cooking, Paula’s Party).  Sooooo cute! 

This past weekend, my cousins and I sang this song, along with our friends in our “non-band” Monkfunk, and today, I was just reminded of it once again. 

What have we become?
Self-indulgent people
What have we become?
Tell me, where are the righteous ones?
What have we become?
In a world degenerating…

What have we become?

What about love?
What about God?
What about holiness?

Let’s honour God with our lives.

I need to be mindful to live out what I sing about. I usually take it for granted. It’s so easy to get caught up in the performance, and fail to worship God in the process.

Feelin’ the need to drive this point home, not only for others, but for myself especially…  I’m re-posting, previous posts:

Living a self-controlled life

Living a transformed life

Have a good week all!

It’s been 2 weeks since new enrollment started, and I can’t believe I’m still standing.  Well, barely.  I’ve consumed so much coffee these past 2 weeks, I think if you try to prick me with a needle, brown goo will ooze out.  I like being busy though, even if I complain about it a lot (haha).  The fact of the matter is, I like being kept on my toes.  It’s such a rush. 

On Sept 23rd, my cousins Joyce, Christine and I, along with a bunch of old friends from Ordinary People, are performing at a Music festival in San Pedro, which is held by The Light of the Lighthouse, a non-profit, Christian organization.  We had our first rehearsal last Monday, and can I just say that these guys are incredibly talented?! I’m so privileged to be part of this endeavour and I get to sing with my old cohorts from OP, Kurtz and Dowai, which is always a thrill for me.  I miss hearing their beautiful singing voices.  I wish we could have an OP reunion one of these days.  I think it would be incredible.  So, the band rocked.  Wow.  I’m excited to be performing along with them.  Please pray that people will feel the presence of the Lord, and will be able to worship along with us. 

If you guys would like to come and see us, (our group is called Monk Funk – haha), here are the details:

The Light at the Lighthouse Festival
Saturday, September 23rd, at Point Fermin Park in San Pedro, CA
***Monk Funk goes on at 6pm (we’re only doing a 30-minute set, and we’re closing out the festival).

Waiting for this day to be over.  I’m looking forward to doing nothing on the weekend (except for working tomorrow morning). 

Rockapella last night.  We’ve seen them so many times and yet, we still don’t get tired of them.  They were great last night. Do it, Rockapella! 

Our 2-week break is over!    Students are coming back.  Let the madness ensue.  It was nice while it lasted.  Pray for me, new school year starts tomorrow.   Oy!

Thank God, it’s Friday!  I haven’t said that phrase in a long time and actually meant it.  I’m sooo glad the weekend’s here.  I’m going to enjoy my 4-day weekend.   HAPPY LABOUR DAY TO ALL!!!
