last week, i took my final exams for german 1 and a few days later, i found out from des and dennis that i passed. my grade? sehr gut! goodness! who would’ve thought i’d get a grade this good!! i just wanted to get 51/100…the passing grade is 50/100, hehe. not that i didn’t think i’m good enough; it’s just that i have missed so many classes (particularly during the second half of the course) because of overtime work, i don’t submit homework (hehe) and i couldn’t catch up with everyone else. but i’m really, really thankful i made it. ^_^ maybe i do owe dennis and des a treat…but they have to ask me auf Deutsch!! ~_^v

bakit ba may meeting na naman?? e kaka-meeting lang kahapon a!!! swear, some meetings are really counter-productive. as if namang wala akong ginagawa and i can spare time for a meeting. kasi naman itong si beyonce, mabilis nga magtrabaho pero daming sablay. so now we’re doing everything all over again. kasi naman, kanta ng kanta, feeling destiny’s child. naiingayan na nga si bianco e. if jax and i can’t finish everything today, carla will be after our necks. hay naku…i just have a thing against meetings…

on rotation ALL DAY on my office PC: gary v’s “take me out of the dark”. that, and “lead me, Lord”, also the gary v. version. they’re sort of my prayers wherever i am: at work, commuting, in the bathroom…i sing them in my head every now and then and i feel so…i don’t know…light, maybe? i especially like meditating over the lyrics every time i feel bad or stressed out and i always feel good afterwards. the messages they contain always have an answer to whatever problems i have and they way gary v sings them just drives the point home. ^_^
i particularly like these lines:
Teach us to trust in you with all of our heart
To lean not on our own understanding
‘Cause we just forget
You won’t give us what we can’t bear
God is so beautiful talaga….
ito na nga ung buong song:
Just what is it in me
Sometimes I just don’t know
What keeps me in your love
Why you never let me go
And though you’re in me now
I fall and hurt you still
My Lord, please show me how
To know just how you feel
You have forgiven me
Too many times, it seemsI
feel I’m not what you might call
A worthy Christian after all
And though I love you so
Temptation find its way to me
Teach me to turn in you with all of my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won’t give me what I can’t bear
Take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don’t wanna be there
You never left my side
You gave your hand to me
To hold you, oh, JesusI’m no longer in the cold
And yet I leave you there
When I feel satisfied
I’d like to thank you everyday
Not only when I feel that way
I’ve never known a man who’d give his life
For sinners like me
And yet because he loves us so
He’s promised us eternity
And we can have that promise and be His
If we have faith and just believe
Teach us to trust in you with all of our heart
To lean not on our own understanding
‘Cause we just forget
You won’t give us what we can’t bear
Take us out of the dark, my Lord
‘Cause we don’t want to be alone
Take us out of the dark, my Lord
We don’t wanna be there
