			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Thanks to Rahul &#8211; I&#8217;ve got my earbug for the week!<br />
<span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://stephspeaks.wordpress.com/2009/11/29/lost-kara-dioguardi/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/gBKszP4ZGJw/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span></p>
<p>*She seriously sings so well! And the guy on the piano &#8211; is quite funny.</p>
<p>Is it obvious to you<br />
When you walk into a room<br />
Your face is all I see?</p>
<p>And my heart races so fast<br />
I never knew a rush to feel like that<br />
Every time you’re touching me</p>
<p>I never did believe in anything<br />
I couldn’t hold between my fingers<br />
But the way you make me feel<br />
It’s just so real the way it lingers</p>
<p>I get lost inside your stare<br />
Lost when you’re not there<br />
When everything I have doesn’t mean a thing<br />
If it’s without you</p>
<p>If it’s a dream, don’t wake me up<br />
I’ll scream if this isn’t <a href="http://www.lettersfromthesoul.com/">love</a><br />
If bein’ lost means never knowin’<br />
How it feels without you<br />
I wanna stay lost forever<br />
I wanna stay lost forever with you</p>
<p>No, this feeling doesn’t end<br />
It’s with me everywhere I am<br />
Hope it never goes away</p>
<p>It’s like defying gravity<br />
Losin’ all control and bein’ free<br />
And I always wanna stay</p>
<p>I never thought that I’d let go<br />
Long enough to fall for someone so deeply<br />
Who had the power to erase my fears<br />
And find me so completely</p>
<p>I get lost inside your stare<br />
Lost when you’re not there<br />
When everything I have doesn’t mean a thing<br />
If it’s without you</p>
<p>If it’s a dream, don’t wake me up<br />
I’ll scream if this isn’t love<br />
If bein’ lost means never knowin’<br />
How it feels without you<br />
I wanna stay lost</p>
<p>Don’t tell me where we’re goin’<br />
I don’t wanna know<br />
I like the mystery<br />
I can’t believe we’ve come this far<br />
So far away from where we started off<br />
You found me when I wasn’t lookin’<br />
You found me</p>
<p>And now I’m lost inside your stare<br />
Lost when you’re not there<br />
And everything I have doesn’t mean a thing<br />
If it’s without you, without you</p>
<p>If it’s a dream, don’t wake me up<br />
I’ll scream if this isn’t love<br />
If bein’ lost means never knowin’<br />
How it feels without you</p>
<p>Yeah, if bein’ lost means never knowin’<br />
How it feels without you<br />
Oh, bein’ lost means that I’m never<br />
Gonna be without you<br />
I wanna stay lost forever<br />
I wanna stay lost forever with you</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>While I&#8217;m scurrying through different social mediums, updating website after website and printing posters, a thought came to my mind &#8211; in response to something I once agreed to (in a church group)</p>
<p>A: &#8220;I think the whole point is to show that hey, we are normal human beings too!&#8221;</p>
<p>I think I still agree with that &#8211; normalcy is something palatable for everyone. But a thought appeared in my head:</p>
<p>Maybe, we are not called to be normal &#8211; but extraordinary.<br />
Maybe, we are not called to be &#8220;human&#8221;, but &#8216;not of this earth&#8217;.</p>
<p>My conclusion?</p>
<p>Simply <strong>be &#8211; </strong>and constantly be open to being an instrument!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Been a crazy week/ or rather &#8211; first two weeks in school!</p>
<p>SERIOUSLY.</p>
<p>My nephew is born! =) Little Isaac!</p>
<p>Too many things happen to blog!</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;Nerina</p>
<p>Oh, this road is long, this road is wide,<br />
It takes more than luck to last the ride,<br />
It takes strength and it takes courage to survive,<br />
And did someone ever say to you,<br />
&#8220;There&#8217;s nothing bound in thought you cannot do?&#8221;<br />
Well, I&#8217;ve seen some things but not all of them came true.</p>
<p>So I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
Don&#8217;t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,<br />
And I don&#8217;t want to be afraid, don&#8217;t want to look away,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe,<br />
No I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
I just need a hope and a light to follow,<br />
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe on my own.</p>
<p>And I know a man who lost his wife,<br />
This is the way he chooses to describe his life,<br />
He says, &#8220;If I think too much, I find there&#8217;s just a hole,&#8221;<br />
But before she went, she left a son,<br />
He says, &#8220;Dad, you&#8217;re not the only one,<br />
Maybe love is just a requiem for the soul&#8230;&#8221;</p>
<p>So I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
Don&#8217;t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,<br />
And I don&#8217;t want to be afraid, don&#8217;t want to look away,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe,<br />
No I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
I just need a hope and a light to follow,<br />
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe on my own.</p>
<p>Oh, do you still feel small?<br />
Just a speck of life on an ocean wave,<br />
Does it pull us all?<br />
Does it pull us all?</p>
<p>So I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
Don&#8217;t want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,<br />
And I don&#8217;t want to be afraid, don&#8217;t want to look away,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe,<br />
No I don&#8217;t want to be the last, I don&#8217;t want to be the first,<br />
I just need a hope and a light to follow,<br />
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,<br />
I&#8217;m learning to breathe on my own.</p>

<p>Chill lax music.</p>
<p>Abby left yesterday.</p>
<p>On top of that, council day past &#8211; was awesome!, 4 weeks of work past, many dinner outings past, many nights spent at home with mama/papa past, and more exciting things are coming.</p>
<p>Did I mention? We spent 1 hour, jumping and creating new crazy shots at the airport.</p>
<p>-dadadadadada~</p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><span style="line-height:16px;white-space:pre;"><br />
</span>Flowers in the ground they wilt way<br />
Sun in the sky it fades away<br />
Make the funniest shapes from the cloud so grey<br />
The breeze in the trees they blow my way</p>
<p>I was told my soul was old<br />
Then can’t I understand it all<br />
If my soul was really old<br />
I wonder if i could change this world</p>
<p>Life has given my obstacles<br />
Still I bite my tongue say it’s wonderful<br />
I’m just glad I’m still around<br />
I’m even more glad when things are down</p>
<p><strong>Life’s too short for what if’s and plans<br />
So let the day take you by the hand<br />
Get your filofax we’ll go and burn them<br />
But I’m too old for ‘damn the man’<br />
</strong><br />
I make a wish on a star at night<br />
The brightest star that’s in the sky<br />
Only to have realized<br />
That it was just a satellite</p>
