Creator of Outer Space

Hey guys. I don't know why in these 2 days, I got so much of inspiration to compose songs about God's creation. I wonder why now when I'm facing SPM. Weird... 

Anyways, this is my second composition. It's a more catchy one. I don't think I have the confidence to allow my bro to post the videos on youtube yet. Oh well. 

Creator of Outer Space

Written by

Joanna Thinn Mar

Verse:

Ball of fire

How did you make it?

Glowing moon in the dark

Fascinating

Sea of stars at night

My eyes are twinkling

No doubt You are 

Their creator

Pre-chorus:

Oh Lord...

Outer space is filled with Your wonders

Oh Lord...

No scientist on earth can ever crack Your code

(That's just because)

*Chorus

Your power stretches so far

I can't imagine how wide

Your brilliant, superb creation

Shows how awesome and great is my God

Bdrige*

You created:

Mercury, Venus,

Earth and Mars;

Together with

Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune,

Pluto;

Comets, Black holes,

Shooting stars,

With the

Asteroids, Meteorites

The Milky Way..!

God the Sky Painter

God the Sky Painter

BY Joanna T.M.

Verse 1:

Sun sets in the West coast

It paints the sky with shades of purple,

And red, orange, yellow and blue,

And most of the time pink ...

Verse 2:

Sun rise in the East coast

It paints the sky, oh so beautiful

Landscapes of red, volcanic sea,

And sometimes a, purple fantasy...

*Chorus

Breathtaking, so glorious

Lord Your paintings

Make me marvel at Your great, greatness

The skies are filled with Your grace and mercy

Hold on a second, pause and see

The beauty of God,

Why can't you see His great, great love

Is spread out through the sky...

Verse 3:

Storm clouds may come once in a while,

Thunder, lightning may sometimes sound

When the rain is pouring 

With the blowing wind

But the sun will shine after they leave 

Ending:

Amazing, none can compare

Rainbows stretching as a symbol

Of Your promise, Lord You are

Good, faithful and true;

Forever...

Music accompaniment will be out on JozantoSA's youtube profile soon. =) 

Perfect because I'm Imperfect

Deh... (yes in Korean)
I've come to realize that my life is perfect because of all the things I have and the people that surround me. I have a roof over my head, clothes that I'm comfortable in, unlimited food to eat, education, books, tech gadgets, entertainment, family, friends and Jesus in my heart. Despite the imperfections of termite left overs in the wood frames of my house, despite the leaking pipe which is hidden from our eyes, despite my dad who doesn't know how to play his role as a real dad, I find it all balanced, perfect! Because that's just Joanna Thinn Mar. No one else could live a life you have. Yours is special, like no one else. Deh... 
          SPM is near! So let's get studying. 

C.N. Blue: Yong Hwa !!

Song: LOVE

Lead singer: Yong Hwa <3 



This song has been stuck in my head ever since I first heard it! The drummer! The beat! So COOL !! 
 How I know Yong Hwa? He acted in a Korean drama series: You're Beautiful. And he's so handsome! All the girls, reading this; agree ?? LOL! 

                   ^      OR        ^

 Today is such a lovely day. I went to school on a Wednesday. Only 22/39 were present and I don't think that we wasted our time coming to school because I found out that I have the chance to score an A- for Bio and I scored A for Sejarah!!

          Those 2 images are my result for paper 2. The first on the left is the original and the one on the right is when I deducted myself because teacher was just toooooo lenient. What I was supposed to get wrong, he gave me chance and made it correct. Because of that I originally scored 81% but after I calculated the actual points, I'm supposed to score 79%. Even though it's 2% difference but it makes my grades different. 

         *sigh... Being someone who's out for justice, I approached guru yang "berwibawa" and asked him to deduct my marks. But he refused. He said "Alah, ni trials, bagi awak chance la. Semua ini minor mistake je... Awak learn from mistake sudah okay. Kalau saya awak, saya biarkan je." 

       [Guru yang berwibawa konon!]

       My other friends were like shock to see me do that, but still teacher refused to minus my marks. All these while, I never scored an A for my History but I believe what Cous Vi Vian told me:

        " It's not that we lepak, and He still helps us, but when we realised our helpless state, and then, asks Him for help (while doing our best with the strength He gives).....A miracle happens!!!!" 

           Yes, indeed a miracle happened. I remember surviving that morning without coffee. The product of studying Sejarah without the tips till 2am+; when I reached school, I found out the tips and skipped recess to study more. I was beat by the time school ended. So yeah, God is really gracious to me and I just can't thank Him enough. Honestly, I couldn't believe my eyes when I received my paper 2. My eyes grew wide and my jaw literally dropped. "WHAT...???!! SERIOUS AH?" were the first words out of my mouth. Then teacher was like, "Kalau tak percaya, boleh datang tolak markah." But obviously he didn't want to. Kononnya, he wanted to set a record for our class to get all A's. *sigh... 

             And on my way home today together with mum, bro and 3 other boys that we had to send home from school, we were blessed with a magnificent view of the sunset.

Teasing from an 11 year old

*sigh.... 
Yes, a HUGE sigh for the "pendahuluan" of this post! 


Yesterday, (10.10.10) 
[WOW! what a really special date! and I didn't even realize that. Amazing....]


Anyways, yes, yesterday. A good friend came on an unexpected visit. Totally informed me the last minute. And we spent the entire day till 8pm + together with my mum, brother and his annoying little friend who keeps teasing!! (and not to mention, he loves my friend's hair which is according to him soft and so cool! Yuck!)
      Why teasing? Because my good friend is a guy. So what he's a guy? Can't I not make friends, good friends or even best friends with a guy?? The 11 year old kid could already think of things to tease such as "doing and saying things coincidently", just standing or sitting together and talking! Yes, I am completely pissed with that brat! And the worst part of everything is: I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING THAT WOULD MAKE THE LITTLE DUDE PAY!
       The only reason that made me have a soft spot on the small fella is because his mum just passed away last year and his dad totally doesn't take care of him properly. He doesn't cook for the kid and usually spends his nights in a snooker club nearby his house. The small kid usually goes hungry and is lazy to go out of the house, cross a busy street to the restaurant and buy food. 
      That's why; to all who are reading this. Appreciate your mums. They're the best person in your lives. Yes, the kid's real life story is sad; but let's get back to the title of this post. 


        The kid is 1/2 my height and 2 years younger than Jozanto and already knows how to say stuff like: 

• "Aww... so sweet"
• "BFGF!!"
• "Jie, is he your boyfriend?"
• "Aww! See the two look at the traffic light together!"
• "Hey! You guys say the same thing together!"
• And again: "Aww... so sweet"

I'm like... "WHAT THE .....!!!!" If I am not a true Christian, I would use the F word already. Lord forgive me for thinking of the F word. I really want to use the F WORD!!! 

AAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!

YOTTABYTES!!!
(frustration level = 10 to the power of ^24)

Hormones or Pure Emotions ??

Yes, pink colour for this post! 


*sigh... Do I really like that guy? Is it love? Or is just plain hormones toying with me. I always try to think scientifically whenever I have this sudden feeling of loneliness or just reminiscing about him. It helps most of the time, but on a few occasions, it doesn't. 
      The problem gets bigger as there's not only one guy but two. I'm very close to both. Or so I think I am. Maybe not. I'm not really close to both. I don't know!! This is my first blog post of my dilemma. Guy A ... Guy B. 
           I sound like someone I know already. Tera-bytes!!  I'm seventeen and a half +. Normal girls like me sure have or had boyfriends before. I'm different. I'm completely brand new. LOL!! Anyone would like to "AMEN!" to that? 
           Seeing my parents' relationship with my own eyes, I guess if there's any guy out there who actually likes me or "love" me; all the best man. Cause I'm the toughest fish to catch. 

Ambitions

• What is your ambition?
  My ambition is to be a doctor.
  
• What do you want to become when you grow up?
   A doctor!
  
• What are you planning to study after SPM?
  I'm planning to study medicine.

I'm not so sure anymore ... *sigh. SPM is just 1 and 1/2 months more to go. I'm generally 50% prepared. I can confidently declare that 5 A's are already in my hand. But the other 6 ... 

           Biology is not a problem; but my Chemistry is! Add Maths is a whole lot another matter and my Physics is up and down. My Bible Knowledge, I'll only know when Aunty Jane gives us our so called "trials". Today (Sunday, 3.10.2010) when Pastor Ashok prayed for Christian teachers in the country, I could imagine myself as a teacher. A really strict and dedicated one. It's really not a bad occupation at all. I can reach out to students and their parents as well as encourage Christian students if I ever get posted to a school which has a Christian Fellowship Club. 

             Therefore, I have concluded what I am willing to become in the future. To become a doctor takes a lot of hard work and so far I have to admit that I used to be a heavy lazy bone. With that previous attitude, it would take a miracle showered with God's over abundance of grace and mercy for me to graduate medical school. If I become a doctor, it is a noble job and people respect you for that. But when you do a mistake it's like life or death... scary. 

              Alright, so here's the list:

1. Doctor [ Paediatrician ] 
2. Teacher [ Science field & English ]  

 

                       

             

                     Yeah... If I don't see a path that leads me to the medical field, I will settle on the second choice. But why do I feel anxiety and a hint of fear when I list that down ? This is so not good... I really hope that it's my hormones that drove me to this current state of emo-ness. I shouldn't have eaten KFC for lunch.
