What Life Would Be Like lyrics

I wish I was more of a man
Have you ever felt that way
And if I had to tell you the truth
I’m afraid I’d have to say
That after all I’ve done and failed to do
I feel like less than I was meant to beWhat if I could fix myself
Maybe then I could get free
I could try to be somebody else
Who’s much better off than me
But I need to remember this
That it’s when I’m at my weakest
I can clearly see

He made the lame walk and the dumb talk
And He opened blinded eyes to see
That the sun rises on His time
Yet He knows our deepest desperate need
And the world waits while His heart aches
To realize the dream
I wonder what life would be like if we let Jesus live thru you and me

What if you could see yourself thru another pair of eyes
What if you could hear the truth
Instead of old familiar lies
What if you could feel inside
The power of the hand that made the universe You’d realize

That He made the lame walk and the dumb talk
And He opened blinded eyes to see
That the sun rises on His time
Yet He knows our deepest desperate need
And the world waits while His heart aches
To realize the dream
I wonder what life would be like if we let Jesus live thru you and me

All our hearts they burn within us
All our lives we’ve longed for more
So let us lay our lives before the one who gave His life for us

He made the lame walk and the dumb talk
He opened blinded eyes to see
That the sun rises on His time
Yet He knows our deepest desperate need
And the world waits while His heart aches
To realize the dream
I wonder what life would be like if we let Jesus live thru you and me

Gratitude to Sarah for introducing me to this band. Good stuff! (:

8 Months. Well, Almost.

Anyways, I think the whole reality that I’m leaving Adelaide soon has hit me. I’ve been thinking and pondering about it, and while I’m still excited to head back to KL, I’m really sad to leave Adelaide.

When I first came, Adelaide was the hole to me. Every one of my friends went to Trinity, UK or stayed in Malaysia. I reckon I was the only one who came to Adelaide this year. And, to be honest, it wasn’t easy. I had numerous moments when I thought, ” Why didn’t I just stay in Malaysia for college?” or ” Why didn’t I go to Trinity?”, to the point it did get frustrating. When I went back to Malaysia for 3weeks in June, I did the whole comparing-thing people normally did. I was so reluctant to leave my comfort zone. I came back to Adelaide and it hit me that I was back for a new semester.

The whole semester has been a transition for me. In July, there were numerous moments of loneliness and emptiness. And it seemed like nothing could change that. But, when I realized the one thing I was missing out on, and made myself vulnerable enough to succumb to it, that’s when my life changed again.

God began to patch pieces of my life back again. He did it slowly but steadily. I didn’t realize till a few weeks back. When I was just thinking of how my life has transformed, if that’s not too big a word to use. I allowed myself to adapt to the Adelaide’s laidback lifestyle, and things just turned around. I realized that I needed this environment to be able to refocus and reassess priorities in my life I reckon if I were in Melb or anywhere else, I’d be way too busy, too caught up, etc etc.

I guess a few of my closer friends would know how I used to complain and go on and on about how Adelaide was A HOLE, and at that time, it was true. But, things change when we least expect it. And someone up there had bigger plans, purposes for me. (:

So yes, I can’t wait to see everyone back home again, but I know I’ll be taking along with me 8months of experience, changes, transitions – whatever you’d lke to call it. I’ll miss Adelaide and the people.

For now, STUDY LI-ANNE STUDY. Like Amani always says to chase me away on MSN

Solution – Hillsong United.

“…Higher than a circumstance
Your promise stands
Your love for all to see
Higher than protest line and dollar signs
Your love is all we need

Only You can mend the broken heart
And cause the blind to see
Erase complete the sinners past
And set the captives free
Only You can take the widows cry
And cause her heart to sing
Be a Father to the fatherless
Our Savior and our King
We will be Your hands, we will be Your feet
We will run this race
On the darkest place, we will be Your light
We will be Your light….”

Quizzes Ruin My Life.

I have been spending gi-mongous ( Tibby’s slang) hours on Blogthings. So addictive. Haha.

(Shh, taking quizzes does NOT make you lifeless).

It’s quite interesting. Crystal and I spend my Internet Quota in uni taking quizzes.

Some of them were rather interesting, intriguing but another half, outright false

I’ll let you have a look (: And then GO TRY IT OUT! haha.

Amani, are you reading this?! I am innocent & sweet like Charlotte except the pooping-in-pants episode in the movie. haha. Oh, I bet if you took it, you’d be SAMANTHA.

You Are Most Like Charlotte!

You are the ultimate romantic idealist You’ve been hurt before, but that hasn’t caused you to give up on love. If anything, your resolve to fall in love is stronger than ever. And it’s this feminine optimism that men find most appealing about you.

Your Slanguage Profile

Aussie Slang: 75% New England Slang: 75% British Slang: 50% Canadian Slang: 50% Prison Slang: 50% Victorian Slang: 25%

You Belong in Australia

Ace! Sunny, upbeat, and cute You make the perfect surf bum Now stop hogging the Vegemite!

Surf bum huh. I can’t even surf. I guess I came to the right country after all. Haha ;D

You Are Definitely Not a Hippie

In fact, you’re so conservative, you make George Bush look like Jerry Garcia. You’re not big on experimentation or alternative lifestyles. Fringe ideas tend to freak you out. You’re pretty suspicious of hippies – or anyone who sympathizes with them. As hippies would say, you are the establishment. You’re part of the system… and proud of it.

I really want to be a Hippie! Just ask Crystal. I mean, phrases like “Far Outt!” and “Wickeddd..” would totally suit me right? haha.

You Are Cheerios

Like other Cheerios eaters, you want to be a responsible adult. But you can’t help but still be a kid at heart! You try to make good decisions. You’re a clean cut, conscientious person. You’re the type of person who would never skip breakfast. Part of you thinks that breakfast is too important to miss… But a bigger part of you knows it’s too fun to miss!

I’m Cheerios! Although I prefer Crunchy Nut and Nutri-Grain. Can’t live without cereal.

Your Goth Name is:

Velouria Chaos

MY GOTH NAME.

You Are Buffy the Vampire Slayer

“We saved the world. I say we have to party.”

Sarah Mich Gellar FTW!

You’ve Been a Little Ruined by American Culture

Whether you live in the US or not, deep down you’re a little American. And there’s nothing wrong with loving American culture, but it may have negative effects on your life. Slow down and enjoy what you have. Reconnect with life’s simple pleasures. You don’t need to be in a consumerist rat race. Life’s too short to overwork yourself!

I am ruined more by blogthings, than the American culture really.

You Are Tiramisu

Light and lovely, you pack a punch. You never overwhelm… but you always leave a lasting impression.

You Are New York

Cosmopolitan and sophisticated, you enjoy the best in food, art, and culture. You also appreciate a good amount of grit – and very little shocks you. You’re competitive, driven, and very likely to succeed. Famous people from New York: Sarah Michelle Gellar, Tupac Shakur, Woody Allen

You Are a Strawberry Daiquiri

You’re a fun, playful drinker who loves to party. You may get totally wasted, but you’re always a happy drunk!

You Should Learn Spanish

For you, learning a language is about career advancement and communication. Knowing Spanish will bring you tons of possibilities for jobs and travel. Bárbaro!

Lastly, MY NATIVE AMERICAN NAME! *__*

Your Native American Name Is…

Winona Amitola Your name means: Giving Rainbow

Like I said, some were pretty accurate! (: hahaha.

I should sleep instead of being this lifeless. Crystal’s fault.

I can’t believe I didn’t go to the RAS at all! But whatever.

Nights loves xo

memoria. memories.

Not going to do much talking, typing rather, today

I’m just going to list the bunch of things that I miss so dearly. But, today, I realized, I’ve had / am having a good life

THELEVEN DARLINGS

TO REALLY TOP IT ALL OFF.

I HAD 10 AMAZING PEOPLE. WHOM I LOVE SO DEARLY.

MY YUMMY YUMMY THELEVEN.

how we came about : i have no idea.

WE JUST DID

those canteen moments, shouting across the table, making prefects so annoyed, only made us stronger.

Good Times.

Cherish them. Keep them. Think about them. Remember them. Reminisce about them.

Most of all, Love ‘em.

When you look back at those times, remember. who created

them for you. who created them with you.

Let the Good Times Roll

Lots of love,

imissyou.and it’s not easy.

above and beyond.

Above and beyond. our every dream. our every hope. our every expectation.

Campus in Hindley Street for the first time today. Everything was just amazing & I believe that God’s going to do what He’s been wanting to do through Edge Church I met Mia at the train station and she gave me this book – Revolution in World Missions. I can’t wait to read it – I can already tell it totally challenged Mia! (: Will blog about it when I’m done.

What God spoke to me about, and what I’ve learnt today.

Acts 18:9-10 “Do not be afraid, Keep on speaking ; Do not be silent. For I am with you, and no one is going to attack or harm you”.

1 John 4:4 ” You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the One who is in you, is greater than the one who is in the world”.

Joshua 1:9 ” Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged; for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go”.

Hits home for me, really :]

I went to uni today between the two church services. and managed a chapter of marketing throughout the whole day. How utterly unproductive. And then I got home, and I played Wedding Dash (tillmy1hrfreetrialexpired) Heh.

Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants – the First Movie. Out on DVD in EzyDVD – 10th Sept! (MAKESUREYOUGRABACOPY)

The 2nd movie is out on 18th Sept! Cannot contain myself! (: (: (: (:

It takes friendship to a whole new level. A WHOLE NEW LEVEL.

Ohh! I talked to Claire today. I just realized how much I miss her and KL8 (youknowwhoyouare).Those were definitely awesome times to be remembered!

*i am going to insert a KL8 picture here tmrw* (since it is in my external HD, too difficult)

Deli, this picture is even cooler! Haha.

For those who can sleep really ( and I mean REALLY) still, this is worth a try.

I’d love to see the outcome. Back aches? Muscle cramps?

Enlighten me please,

It’s worth it:)

xoxo

P.S. Go listen to : I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How to Dance with You

He’s got two left feet and he bites my moves.

fouw-curs. fhur-ens. jurnk-fwhood.

The last few days, I’ve really learnt how important it is to fix our eyes on Jesus. It seems simple at first when God seems to be answering each and every prayer, being there always. But when He is silent, it gets more challenging. However, God isn’t less real, He hasn’t disappeared, He’s still there listening. I guess that’s the stage I’m going through, at lots of times, people fall at this point in time, where they think “God’s not there anymore”. It’s really taught me the meaning of perseverance, pressing on and pushing forward. And I’m determined. (:

On another note. I’m here in uni, trying to study marketing (sooonotworking)

I am still obsessed with typing without spaces, (stillthinkspacebarsareoverrated)

My back’s getting better I reckon, it’s not as painful. But hopefully it’ll heal completely!

Okay, I’m off now. Will come back to edit this later.

I’m yet to go for the Royal Adelaide Show. (GEEZ) soon.soon.soon. sometime within the week, when I actually have the time!

The better part of one’s life consists of his friendships.”

I sincerely believe that junk food is part of life. It’s inevitable.

Come, agree with me!

(that’s some key he has to reach!)

Says alot hey?

I think Sisterhood might be affecting me too much.

I mean, cmon. there’s no such thing as the type of fairytale friendship they have right. It just can’t apply to real life.

But, it’s okay. I understand. I still love all of you.

Goodnight (:
