Hear Me


I sit here and wait for You my Beloved
To come down and let my soul be flooded
For I need You here so close to me
For You, my dear, are my Grand Prix.
I sit here and wait; imagine Your face...
Only You remind me where I stand in my place,
For I know You know me, I know that well
I know You see the pearl inside the shell.
I sit here, waiting, until You would come
To relieve me of my pain, to give me some
Of what Your beauty and holiness bring
To extinguish my sadness, to make me sing,
To make me laugh, to make me sleep
Into the depths of Your abundance, but by You let me keep.
I sat here and waited, my prayer you heard
You knew I was lonesome, You knew I was scared
But here I wait, praying, and awaiting my Beloved
I open my heart to You and bow my head.
My fellow poet cousin Ado wrote this with me, alternating every two lines. Heh.. Grand Prix would be his line ; ) ..I started it up just to entertain ourselves, but what it turned out was more than from the heart.

Hey
Everybody
Merry Christmas
To each and every one of you
Sending you the sweetest of wishes
On this night of crackling fires in the chimneys
Warm rosy cheeks, comfy clothes, good friends and family
And most importantly the wrapping paper and ribbons galore! Gifts of love!
Tonight,
Thinking
Of you all
With love,
~~SarahAngela~~

Wed. eve; exams done; celebrate! 2 of the guys from across the hall and the 4 of us girls gathered in our living room to open gifts, secret santas, and stockings. this is fairly early on, so it was actually alot messier and much more c-mas-feeling-warmth feeling once all was opened and crackers were popped. from my roomies i received a fleece hoodie, a candle, and a sqweez pillow(sweet!). we later went out walking in atlanta and finally had dinner at hard rock cafe (which turned out to be the ONLY restaurant around open after 9 =/ ..)

Looking up! into the vortex sucking nate up into a swirl of.. ok this is coming out of the Marta station....
annd...looking down (not recommended!). tina, my closest roomie, and keisha, the 'mum' of us. previous pic plus this is in fact how deep underground the train is. go ahead.. count em steps.

At the Hard Rock Cafe. it was the first time i've ever been there. (haven't even been to the one by aub!) They played jimi hendrix.. muse.. the beatles.. and the food was good too ;).

Swing Swing.


I can't remember when i fell in love with this song.. quite a while back. But i never thought i could adopt and relate to it...
Swing Swing The All-American Rejects.
...
Days swiftly come & go, I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys, emotions they stir
The sun is gone, the nights are long,
And i am left while the tears fall.
...
*Swing swing swing from the tangles of
*My heart is crushed by a former love
*Can you help me find a way to carry on again.
...
Bury me. You thought your problems were gone.
Carry me. Away, away, away....
Verse 2 & the bridge aren't in there. when they apply to me, i'll publish them.

Soaked.


With a song called Dive playing on my iPod, i'll tell you today us girls went up versus the boys across the hall in a ... h2o fight. ofcourse, i got the wettest. not because i'm the most loved or popular (like in skool days; me?-yeahright). But because i'm the most stubborn, and am determined to get even with the four cups Nate made my clothes enjoy. so i want to get him back for four with my four cups of hot, hot, cool, and cold water yeah? well i ate those up myself. it's like backfiring a draw 4 with a personal draw 4. a little note. Nate is pretty strong. and taller. by the time it was over (and i'm wringing my hair and clothes), our kitchen floor, their entrance, and our entire part of the hallway was all slippery (/soaked for the carpet areas). heh. and three of us had to change 3 times. my pyjama pants had JUST come out of the laundry. oh well, i'll just sleep in my boxers. =p nah i don't have any. O_o
I also got shot by a bb gun. short range. OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW. kint 3am hiffa for like 5 mins. now i have a pink tattoo on my thigh of the dot at the bottom of an exclamation point. !.
check sms.ac out. if i haven't already invited you, let me know. i love sending little hellos to let your message tones ring. add me: nyxphoenix. make sure u silence ur phones in class ;)
I got full grade on my computer essay. i did the presentation with my teammate today (uh, technically yestoday ;) ) and we got the hint that it was the best. so cool.
play Dido's 'sand in my shoes', 'white flag', and 'don't leave home.' know how i feel.

I know i'm not, but i am...


Alone.
I am still in love with he who is not mine. nor can i reach him. he will not show me his face. he will not say my name.
how much can you give before you crack? if all you can do is give, how can you stop? if God guarantees that love does not fail, then why hasn't it victored?
hear this. when you are broken-hearted, no one will tell you what you want to hear.
I learnt to live alone. But i knew i had a friend. now i live alone, and feel like the thing i treasured the most in my life so far has been taken far from me. i didn't know there was such a thing as being even alone-r. so much deeper too.
my love was created to be endless. ...how can it stop now?
drink your water. breathe involuntarily. do what you must.
why did my underlying joy have to be taken from me in this way, through this?
the ultimate heartbreak.
my eyes have never shed as much.
