wings of desire

if words cease to exist, i cant think of better pictures than these to tell a story. yesyes.i was printscreening the movie like crazy whilst watching it >. strangely thought provoking. strangely attractive.
what if. just afraid it will all end too soon.
my problem romans 7:14-20 14 For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am of the flesh, sold under sin . 15 For I do not understand my own actions. For I do not do what I want, but I do the very thing I hate. 16 Now if I do what I do not want, I agree with the law, that it is good. 17 So now it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. 18 For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is, in my flesh. For I have the desire to do what is right, but not the ability to carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want, but the evil I do not want is what I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells within me. im thankful.. romans 7:21-25 21 So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. 22 For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, 23 but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members....

one reason why i love my pastor.

says my pastor on proverbs 31:30 "Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." "so guys, before you decide to go out with a girl, take a look at her grandmother first." of which my friend promptly said to me, "shawna,we have hope now!" :)
ive been resisting the urge to blog the past week with the geog mid sems coming up and all.so yes!today marks the end of that torturous past week when ive been trying to cram all that stuff about rossby waves, jet streams and el nino(stuff that ive happily left out all my life for the more interesting parts of geography like volcanoes and rocks--i can totally imagine monica rolling her eyes now >. . at least the geog test is over:)
a classic example of why guys will never understand girls. shawna to kah mun: i have fat thighs. kahmun: me too:( (a group of guys comes along.) guys: huh? you have fat "ties" as in ties?(minsheng doing the tie gesture to his neck) shawna: huhhh? kahmun: no no, as in chicken thighs, thighs.. minsheng: oh, so u guys like to eat chicken thighs? shawna: huhhhhhhh? kahmun: ....forget it.
try standing on a revolving chair and stretch out one arm to grab a filled tray off the top shelf, whilst talking to someone on the phone. if you dont end up falling and knocking the back part of head against the table, you are thankfully less clumsy than shawna, who has very cleverly injured her head again, two days in a row. front on tues, back on wed. i think i should start talking to monkeys now, as kah mun suggested, due to excessive loss of brain cells.
