There has been a list released of victims that might be attacked by terrorists. These victims are all prominent Jewish people living in Britain. Victims include Mark Ronson and Amy Winehouse. NOOOOOOOOO. I love them.

Elephants...Teeth Sinking Into Heart (2 CD)
By Rachael Yamagata

I am just me.

My dear Xanga, I have not abandoned you, but rather just been too busy to write down my thoughts and experiences.

For those of you who are wondering about my stolen rims and tires, I'm over it. I've forgiven the kid who stole them. I've filed a claim with my insurance company, I think they will cover it, still have lots of paper work to do with them. We shall see. As for money, God has never failed to provide for me, I've always gotten what I needed and then some.

I'm going to Alaska from April 24-May 4 with my worship team. We're holding two major worship conferences at the start and the end of the trip, and in the middle, we'll be going to Native villages to minister. Apparently, this worship conference is the real deal. I don't think I will realize the magnitude of this conference until I'm up there worshiping on stage in front of thousands of people. My team and myself will all be speaking on several topics pertaining to worship. I will be leading a work shop about "soaking." What is soaking, you ask? In my own words, soaking is letting your spirit soak in the presence of the Lord. In worldly terms, it is like "meditation." One can listen to soft music and just relax and let the Holy Spirit speak to you. To soak is literally to get wet and immerse oneself in water, and in the Christian sense, to let the Holy Spirit fill you up.

April is not too far away, time to start preparing my message, work shop, etc. I need to fix up some of my original songs and write a few more. Our band is going to hold some hard core practices too, because I only want to give my best to the Lord. I want my musical chops to be down, so that I can focus on more important things when I'm playing/singing, such as ushering in the presence of God.

Speaking of songs...
Garby took me to the Rachael Yamagata concert tonight at The Mod Club as part 2 of my birthday gift. I had a great time. I actually saw Rachael outside having a smoke and talking on her cell phone when we were walking in. Our eyes met and I looked at her thinking I knew her from somewhere. Duh, it was Rachael Yamagata!!! So yeah, I guess you can say that we had a "moment." Anyway, as she was singing one of her songs, I was inspired to write one of my own. I've got this pretty cool chord progression that I've been playing around with and now I think I've got some lyrics to pen.

The song is going to be about me, just being me. I live my life with integrity and won't compromise with what the world wants me to be. I like who I am. I like how I look. I like how God made me and I refuse to change just because I don't see things the way you do. I refuse to change because I don't meet your expectations. The only expectations that I have to meet are His. I AM worthy.

Werd.

So fucking angry that I have to swear.

VW rims and tires got stolen from my garage.
I just spent $800 on winter tires, got them installed and had my regular tires sitting in my garage.
My tires were old and in need of replacement, but my rims...my beautiful VW rims...

The person that stole them went into my garage in the middle of the night. Unplugged my garage door opener and did the deed. I'm pretty sure I know who did it. I didn't read all those Nancy Drew books for nothing.

Fuck. If I see that kid, I'm going to punch him in the fucking face.
I think I will go ape shit if I see him. No lie.
Trying out some anger management techniques...

Five birthday celebrations...for ME!

Wed-diner's club

Thurs-dinner with family at Aoyama because it is so good. It is an authentic Japanese restaurant, mom and pop styles.

Fri-MY TWENTY SIXTH BIRTHDAY!
lunch with my two best friends, yorkdale, then ministry at night. i figure, what better way to spend my bday then to glorify God. I'm helping Ry with the worship.

Sat-teaching piano, then party at night with my friends. i have a table booked at Nota Bene, this new restaurant that is building up accolades.

Sunday-band practice, church, then go to my grandma's house for my family bday dinner. i told my family that all i wanted for my bday was a dinner at grandma's house, her cooking and my family. I've had the best foods in the world, but nothing compares to my grandma's cooking. It is made out of love. =)
