- Unashamed Love

"you're calling me to lay aside the worries of my day...to quiet down my busy mind and find a hiding place....worthy...you are worthy...i open up my heart and let my spirit worship yours, i open up my mouth and let a song of praise come forth...worthy...you are worthy..." - unashamed love, ten shekel shirt

so i've been emailing one of the kids from thailand named Earth (yes...isn't it a cute name?) and he recently sent me this email that i thought was adorable:

My foot is now very better .Now do you have a basketball game like
two teams play together.Now what are you doing and this is a
picture of me.Is the USA cold? Now Thailand has a lot of rain and
some of the day are hot . I wish you are happy. Bye !

and that's the picture he sent! he's 10 years old.

anyway, i just thought it was cute/funny.

BLAH i am still currently jobless and all i've been doing is cleaning my room and helping around the house. what a fun summer eh? anyway, let's hang out or have a Des Moines day or something

and in the words of Earth "i wish you are happy!"

- Tie the Rope

"what can i do for you my Lord? i want you to know my heart is yours. it's not a question of what you can do for me...but what can i do for you my Lord?" look what you've done by tree63

so i have returned from thailand. how do i feel? excited! tired. missing it. reflective.

there's so much to tell that xanga doesn't do it justice. so seriously ASK me. MEET with me. and if you can't, what you SHOULD know is that God is good, and that He loves Thailand and the people there, and that if you get the chance to go, you should.

i would post some pictures of the adorable kids from the basketball camp, but i'm using my ancient computer that doesn't have pictures. sad. i'll try and make a slideshow or something else that will make me cry later

thanks again for all the support and prayers. i know that it was only through God using all of you that i was able to see Him and demonstrate His love over there.

ok i missed you all! let's hang out soon.

p/s: you should definitely ask me about "halloween-masked crocodiles" if you talk to me ok?

- Dandelions


"Lord search my heart...create in me something clean...dandelions...You see flowers in these weeds..." - dandelions by five iron frenzy

old song.

soooo facebook is taking over my life...not really, but it amuses me quite a bit

like today i thought it'd be cool to look up the last name "hirata" and see how many people had my last name, and there were quite a few...

but the best one had to be

FABIO HIRATA

yes, they do exist...look them up and facebook friend them. i did.

(haha no i didn't )

ok that's all...thailand soon! thanks for the prayers and encouragement.

How To Save A Life

- Over My Head (Cable Car)


"i never knew...i never knew that everything was falling through...that everyone i knew was waiting on a queue...to turn and run when all i needed was the truth..." - over my head (cable car) by the fray

that song has been stuck in my head FOREVER.

sooo long time no update. just some quick ponderings:

1) the year is ending! exciting? yes. over? no. what's really cool is that i have been truly blessed by some friendships i've made and built upon in the past couple weeks, and God has done some pretty amazing things in a short period of time. i'm excited to know that God STILL has a ton to do during the rest of this quarter, even if time seems short.

2) family+friends+basketball+God = THAILAND! i'm leaving in about 4 weeks...thanks for all the prayers and support. i'm anxious, but also incredibly excited!

3) apples to apples is probably the best game ever invented. period.

4) music/lyrics make me really emo.

5) currently learning how to sit still and just BE with God.

hmm yes. that's about it for now.
