Laughs

Alright...
I'm in the mood for laughing, so I'm gonna make you guys laugh with me! These are some of my favorite funny videos/commercials....









And now we get into people!






(Don't know what the lyrics are in this song - might want to mute.)


Okay - this one is a Korean coke commercial that Nathan and I absolutely die over every time we see it...


This. One. Is. Hilarious...



I bet I did every one of those things as a baby...

Hope you enjoyed!

Pocky!

Yes, I got my little guy. He's SO cute!! AH! We got him Thursday - he is absolutely adorable.
I thought you guys might like to see pictures, so - here they are.
His name is Pocky, which is a Japanese candy, and he's only about two months old.

I also got a Betta fish! His name is Rain. The little guy keeps me company when I'm sitting at my desk. ^.^

Tootle pip!

Farewell to Squishy

I'm sad. Pippin just died a little while ago.
It started this morning when I noticed that his breathing was off, and he wasn't really interested in the parsley we offered him. (SO not Pippin...)
We took him to the vet, and they said it was some sort of respiratory problem; they gave him some antibiotics, and that was that. We came home, and the day went on, until just a little while ago. I went into my room, and he was just laying there. I knew he was dead. I picked him up, and really didn't start crying until I brought him into the room where mom was. My poor Pippin.
His nickname was "Squishy" - you wouldn't BELIEVE all of the crazy jokes we've had with that funny guy. I'm going to miss him. He was very squishy...

Dad said I could get another one, so maybe tomorrow, Mom and I will go to Winston to get one. I'd like that...

Love you, Pip. You were very squishy...very squishy, indeed.

Always Fighting,
-Han

Here's just a small taste of the jokes Nate and I had with him -
this is an actual song, though we changed the words to say "Squishy" ....
WARNING: Extreme dumbness ahead - continue at your own risk...

Squishing through the back door, squishing in the cold -

Communasquishy breakdown,

Complete Squishy overload.

Been through a squishy fire, I feel like a squishy glow,

squishy glow

Squishies passing on the freeway, my Squishy's on the run;

been runnin' from a Squishy, I'm not the only one.

And somewhere in the distance, a Squishy's taking flight

Destinations unknown, just squish into the night.

So much said, and squished, but after all: the time has come to 

squish it all, behind.

If you could see Squishy through my eyes,

You'd know he'd try to squish it all.

He's been squishing all his life, to stand up every time he falls

If you could see Squishy through my eyes...

I feel squishy up my spine
The squishy on my hands
I'm squishing here alone, With squishy arms again

Squishy ain't no stranger
There'll be a squishy star
And Squish will find it's way
Into someones heart
Too late for tears
No time to be Squishy
It's just the echo of our
Squishy song ...

If you could see Squishy through my eyes,

You'd know he'd try to squish it all.

He's been squishing all his life, to stand up every time he falls

If you could see Squishy through my eyes,

 You'd see that he will always squish
Somewhere out there is my squishy,

And a new squish will come my way
If you could see Squishy through my eyes
Through my eyes

...I WARNED you...

 

A Tale of Two Savages....

 

Okay, well...not necessarily. ^.^ 

Close enough, though. 

We had a BLAST! It was SO much fun! She's my girl, and I let the whole world know it! My Best Friend is absolutely amazing. 

The "Tale of Two Savages" actually came from a book title we saw while browsing the loads of used books they had at the Conference. For some reason, we latched on to it, so - there you are. 

I LOVED seeing her again - I cried later after we had parted and were on the way down the road because I knew it would be a long time before I saw her again. We had such a...beautiful time. 

The talks were amazing, and one was done by a man named Todd Wilson that was SUPER! Very, very good. 

My BFF and I were able to get a StarBucks coffee (YUM!) after staying up until 4:15 in the morning. Mom and I were staying the night at her house, and it was the "Lights Out" rule at 2:30. Well, we stuck to that - and were so tired we couldn't keep our eyes open. As soon as the lights went out, we hit and adrenaline high and began to chat. 2:30 very soon turned into 4:15, and we realized since we were getting up at 6:20 in the morning, we'd better get some sleep! We talked about SO much... >.> 

So - to sum it all up, another chapter was written in the Tale of Two Savages. We had the most AMAZING time - God is so good! 

To my Soul Sister - THANK YOU for being there! I LOVE YOU! Stay strong in Him!

Fighting!

Always Fighting,

-Han

 I LOVE this one - I have NO idea what this girl is doing....Singing an emotional ballad? >.0

 A REALLY bad case of the giggles...

 

Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Just as it is written, "For Your sake we are being put to death all day long; we were considered as sheep to be slaughtered." But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

What then shall we say to these things? 

If God is for us, who is against us?

Excitement Overload

 

I've officially gone into excitement overdrive. 

I don't think I can contain myself. I'm pretty sure I can't. I've already got butterflies in my stomach. 

I'm gonna be going to GA soon, and I don't think I'll be able to safely survive the 6 hour trip. I just may burn a circuit.  I'm so fidgety, it's unbelievable! 

My Best Friend is going to be there, and I'm going to have such a great time! 

*puts on Alice voice from Last of the Mohicans*

"I shan't sleep tonight - what an adventah!"

Ooooh goodness. My nerves....

Anyway - yes. I'm so excited, delighted! I absolutely can NOT deny it or fight it. This is just what I need... *very happy sigh*

God is so good. I mean - really. I was walking outside while the sun was going down, talking out loud to Him. I was telling Him how He does the most amazing things when you least expect them. How amazing His mercies are and how vast. Ha...I just looked down at my Bible in front of me, and saw this verse:

Colossians 4:2-6 

"Devote yourselves to prayer, keeping alert in it with an attitude of thanksgiving; praying at the same time for us as well, that God will open up to us a door for the word, so that we may speak forth the mystery of Christ, for which I have also been imprisoned;

that I may make it clear in the way I ought to speak.

Conduct yourselves with wisdom toward outsiders, making the most of the opportunity. 

Let your speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt, so that you will know how you should respond to each person."

Speech with grace, devoted to prayer.

"But Mary kept these things in her heart and treasured them."

I told mom one time that I'm a lot like Mary. I keep practically EVERYTHING in my heart; that's why it's soooo full. I feel like I'm going to burst sometimes. It's often because of that warm, overwhelmed feeling inside like you get when you listen to the most gorgeous piece of music you've ever heard. That's how I am. I had a friend tell me that I have a huge, huge heart because I pray for everyone I come in contact with, and those I haven't actually met. She told me that if I were ever rejected by those I love, my heart would indeed break. Yeah, it probably would...but for someone like me with such a huge heart, that's a risk you've got to take. She then told me that I'm a heartbreaker, because I make her feel guilty that I pray for all of these people and that I still love her after what she's been through. I laughed and told her that that was not my intention - my intention is to love greatly and bear much hurt.  I love her because she's my sister in Christ - because Christ loved much. If He loved much, shouldn't I? 

I do have a huge heart - and I'm not bragging. I'm not quite sure how I got to be this way. I suppose it's because I realized how much Christ loved. I must love, too. 

I do love. Not near as much as I should - but I do love. I love to love. I love to share Christ's Love. 

I love loving. 

He loved much - shouldn't I?

Fighting!

An overloaded with excitement wreck waiting to happen,

-Hannah ^.^ 

*falls out of chair with a huge happy sigh*

Steve McQueen

Yes, this is our Steve McQueen.
Why that name? Well...he's our Escape Artist Extraordinaire.
My Best Friend got a kick out of it because Steve McQueen is one of her favorites - so - maybe these pictures will make her smile. ^.^
When this puppy sleeps - he SLEEPS. I have NEVER seen a dog so relaxed! Here's a few pictures, and a video at the end.

I love my puppy!

Always Fighting,
-Han

Something I made...

I love GIMP. ^.^
I made this for me and all of my friends - hope you like it! I loooove this font! *bounce*
Anyway - not much going on. Just....life. It's been raining here for the past few days, so it's getting a little gray....mood wise. >.<
My Best Friend's birthday was yesterday, so I was happy about that - Happy Birthday, sis!
I get to see her REALLY soon, so I am extraordinarily EXCITED about that! (We are going to have a blast!)
So - girl's time out consisting of giggling, hopefully a peppermint mocha, if we can locate and attack a StarBucks, and BOOKS - lots of books! (Book fairs are the BEST!) Sooo...that's what I'm hyped up about. ^.^ I told her that I was going to make her suffer by ordering a shot of espresso in my mocha... >:)
Okay, not really.... =D And naturally, I'm looking forward to riding aalll the way down there with my mom. It's fun to go places with her. Hey - we might even go to StarBucks on the way! WOOHOO!

Life is good!
Goodbyyyyyeee!!!

Always Fighting,
-Han

Prayer

Lord, I pray for whoever saw that sunset. I pray for them. I beg you for them. 
Whoever saw that, Father - give them hope in a dark world. Keep the lights from blinding them - protect their ears from the sounds. 
They need You, Lord - like so many. So many need You. Oh my God....save Your people. Show them the way. Never let them go. I know Your promise that You will lose none, and whoever the Father has given You, You will never cast out. 
So many are lost, Lord. It hurts my heart so bad. It makes me cry. There's so much turmoil, so much pain. Nations are starving, people are killing each other, horrible things happen. I know You know this - but it hurts. It hurts so bad sometimes. 
Father, I ask on behalf of so many people, I beg on their behalf, with all of my full heart, that You wouldn't let their last breath escape without bringing them into Your arms. I know, I KNOW, that you will save those You have called. 
I see people driving down the road and pray for them because they don't know where they're heading, and I don't mean map wise. I mean soul wise. It hurts. 


God, please heal. Please hear. Please, please help.  


In Your Name forever, amen.
