The Best D * * n Thing- Avril Lavigne

The Best Damn Thing -Avril Lavigne

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho

I hate it when a guy doesn’t get the door
even though I told him yesterday and the day before
I hate it when a guy doesn’t get the tab
And I have to pull my money out and that looks bad

Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they’ll finally see

[Chorus:]
That you’re not not not gonna get any better
You won’t won’t won’t you won’t get rid of me never
Like it or not, even though she’s a lot like me
We’re not the same
And yeah yeah yeah I’m a lot to handle
You don’t know trouble, I’m a hell of a scandal
Me, I’m a scene, I’m a drama queen
I’m the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

Alright, alright
Yeah

I hate it when a guy doesn’t understand
Why a certain time of month I don’t wanna hold his hand
I hate it when they go out, and we stay in
And they come home smelling like their ex girlfriends

I found my hopes, I found my dreams
My Cinderella story scene
Now everybody’s gonna see

[Chorus]

Give me an A (always give me what I want)
Give me a V (be very very good to me)
R (are you gonna treat me right)
I (I can put up a fight)
Give me an L (let me hear you scream loud)

One, two, three, four

Where are the hopes, where are the dreams
My Cinderella story scene
When do you think they’ll finally see

[Chorus]

Let me hear you say hey hey hey
Alright
Now let me hear you say hey hey ho

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

I’m the best damn thing that your eyes have ever seen

Grace@Work Mail 22/08: Changes

Commentary: Changes
By Soo-Inn Tan

I hate change. Give me the security of familiarity. I rejoice in the warmth of
familiar faces and familiar places. Change takes so much out of me. But I
have also come to terms with the fact that change is the perfect backdrop
for divine encounters. In times of change we discover what does not change.
Therefore, often, in times of change, we discover/rediscover God.

I met two friends (separately) yesterday. Both were going through major
changes in their lives. I listened to their stories. I noted afresh the turmoil
that comes with change. And the questions that change brings. Many of
these questions had no answers. At least not yet. Still I felt the rightness of
the decisions they had made. (They seem to take change much better than
me.) But all change comes with a cost. I trust that in their transitions, God
will once again come into clearer focus.

6 Feets Under

How far can you push a man’s limit? just exactly how far? When I thought all the nasty undercurrents that have been dragging me down and under are over and it’s restoration time, a fresh round of tidal waves began.

Why did God allow bad things to happen to good people? I always have that answer ready in my pocket just in case any of my friends were to ask me. But today, slammed with this cruel reality, I stood dumbfounded. Tears streamed uncontrollably when I heard from TS himself that he was diagnosed with cancer. Wasn’t it only a while ago when we were still studying together, and having so much fun? Seeing him in pain when I visited him just now, send me pangs of sorrow. Somehow my reasoning froze up in my mind. I simply can’t reconcile with the fact and my reasoning. But as promised, we will still play Wii at your place when exams are over. Speedy recovery, bro.  Ziwan, if you are reading this, feel free to come and join us k. =)

I’m getting increasingly nonchalant about the adversities in life. How long more can I last?


Caught in His embrace each time I fall.

Day 2

Attention Please

Paging for Ah Nei, my big friendly Uncle Agony. I need to rent your shoulders for the next 3 months. If you think that the Charles’ thingy was bad, this is some sort that bad too. No questions, no comments, no solutions pls. I just need to wet your sleeve like AGAIN!

So are we gonna attempt the OTIA paper or not? Or are we gonna ta-bao till next yr? *screams* Exams seems like never-ending. Why can’t it just end just like that?

Day 2

Day 1

Boying!!! You are still reading me. Thank you! You are indeed funny, I quote,

“Cooling doesn’t mean from the eyes.”

Yeah, I mentioned I need to cool down and that was her reply. Crying is indeed a good way to vent my frustrations and letting some agony outta my bones. Thanks babe!

Nothing lifts me up like the love of God whose healing touch gives me a new meaning to life. Amidst these raging spiritual attacks, His grace is STILL ever sufficient for me. My weakness is perfected in His strength.

Made righteous by the blood of Jesus.

Day 1

One Paragrph That Explains Life

Another piece for you to ponder. It is true that we tend to question God about ‘why me’ when our life turn upside down but have we thought of saying ‘why not me’ in time of difficulty. ‘Men can plan but God direct their steps’ so let us live one step at a time because we do not know what is around the corner. Enjoy your life and spend as much time with your loved one when you can. Have a good day commune with the Lord.
God bless!

ONE PARAGRAPH THAT EXPLAINS LIFE!


Arthur Ashe, the legendary Wimbledon player was dying of AIDS which he got due to infected blood he received during a heart surgery in 1983.
From world over, he received letters from his fans, one of which conveyed: ‘Why does GOD have to select you for such a bad disease’?
To this Arthur Ashe replied:
‘The world over — 50 million children start playing tennis, 5 million learn to play tennis,
500,000 learn professional tennis, 50,000 come to the circuit, 5000 reach the grand slam,
50 reach Wimbledon, 4 to semi final, 2 to the finals,
when I was holding a cup I never asked GOD ‘Why me?’.
And today in pain I should not be asking GOD ‘Why me?’ ‘

‘Happiness keeps you Sweet,
Trials keep you Strong,
Sorrow keeps you Human,
Failure keeps you humble and Success keeps you glowing, but only Faith & Attitude Keeps you going…

Into The Thin Air

It is one thing to be misunderstood and another to be totally deserving of it. Maybe it would have been better if i can just vanish from the surface of this earth. This is really too much to bear. My heart can no longer take the stress. Maybe it is time.

When all these crying and calling out for help serve no purpose… When help is in front of me yet I can’t grasp it… When God is real and true but Satan still seems to reign over me… When nothing that is done makes matters any better… I cease striving… Completely.

Left speechless and drained of tears. Behind that smile is a broken soul, awaiting to snap anytime.

Goodbye.
