" Ice Princess "

It's a Walt Disney film I watched yesterday. It's about a story of a 17-year-old physics whiz Casey Carlyle (Michelle Trachtenberg) is urged by her physics teacher to work on a physics project over the summer for presentation to Harvard. As a skater, Casey decides on a project that shows the elements of physics applied in competitive figure skating. To start, she visits a skating club run by former professional skater Tina Harwood (Kim Cattrall). Casey eventually finds that in order to better understand the principles she's using, she will have to become her own test subject, and joins the skating school. The more she gets involved, the more she falls in love with figure skating....and must ultimately make a choice; Will it be Harvard - which her mother (Cusack) and Casey have both dreamed of, or will it be her new dream - as a competitive figure skater?

It may be another movie for other people I guess. But when Casey to give up Harvard and decided to chose figure skating, she went to ask Tina if she could be her coach. And when Tina told her it's not her thing, Casey said, " If I fail, I fail. But then it's because I was not good enough, not because I didn't have the guts. "

I'm facing a decision of stepping a step forward or a step backward. And when I heard these words, I was thinking if I should go to the way God wants me to go. What is really stopping me? Is it because I don't have the courage to do it? (I think so) Or is it because I know I'm not good enough? but if I'm not good enough, then why does God want me this? God must know I can do this, so He's placing me to this way. But why do I need to go forward? Why can't I change the way I'm going to take?......I think I need to pray really hard, and remember to trust in Him. And to bear in mind, what Casey said, " If I fail, I fail. But then it's because I was not good enough, not because I didn't have the guts." *wink*

" Missing Daniel "

I'm missing Daniel right now. And i bet not only me will miss him. I'm kinda' sad right now coz he's leaving right now, tonight. His flight is 23:50. He said he'll be back on December, but it's only August right now. *sad*

I still remember the 1st time i saw him. He was playing the guitar on the Sunday service, and he was not even smiling. I was thinking, "Why is this guy not smiling? Is he unhappy playing music to God?" And I finally knew that even though he was not smiling at those times, his heart is full of praises for God. We cannot judge a person for what they are, we need to see through the Spiritual way. and I'm so blessed to get to know him before he leaves. The time when the two us cleaned 262, the days when we listened and made notes from the sermon tapes, the hours we spent chatting about our favorite band, SWITCHFOOT; the minutes we spent practicing for worship service.

Daniel's gonna board in the next thirty minutes.

And we all bless him in the name of Jesus.

** luv u Daniel, will miss u so much!!! **
