3 superficial randoms

1. I just found out that Jonathan Safran Foer is married to Nicole Krauss. I just discovered Nicole Krauss, but I'm loving the way The History of Love is written. Jonathan Safran Foer is one of my favorite authors. To know that the two are married makes me so happy inside. It's like when Susan tries to celebrity matchmake couples but this couple is actually REAL. Happy smile.

2. I realized, I really like when a guy can pull of wearing glasses. I hope my future husband wears glasses :)

3. Watches may just be my favorite accessory of the moment. My latest hobby: looking around to see what kind of watches people are wearing. In a world where everyone relies on their cellphone or ipod for the time, it's nice when you run into another person who wears a watch as more than just a fashion statement.

This was a really superficial post, I guess. It's just the 3 top things on my mind right now.

Calloused

During this past week I was gone, I didn't have the chance to play or touch a guitar at all. Instead, I started noticing the callouses that formed on the tips of my left hand fingers. They are small, and probably still just the very beginning of what most guitar players form. But to me it's so fascinating, sometimes I find myself touching the tips of my fingers together just for fun while waiting in line or, in this case, writing a post. Because it feels different. It's hardened and calloused. And it makes me realize how adaptive our bodies really are. It strikes me because I only just started playing and already the tips of my fingers have adapted their own kind of...defense mechanism. To protect and shield itself. To keep it from being hurt again. In many ways, it's not just my finger tips that have grown calloused....

Yesterday was one of those days I just don't want to forget....for a long time.

"And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day drawing near" Hebrews 10:24-25

What I've been mulling on but haven't had the chance to really write about: God's power and the magnitude of that power and how it puts everything else in its place. You are good, you are good when there's nothing good in me you are love on display for all to see.

You are worthy of all my affection.

사랑합니다

나의 예수님....

주님 말씀하시면

내가 나아 가리다

주님 뜻이 아니면

내가 멈춰 서리다

내가 가고 서는 곳

오직 주께 있으니

주님... 나를 이끄소서

I want to play everything on the keytar now.

I only know four chords {for now}

Plus, I have my final midterm tomorrow. After a month and a half of midterms every (almost) week.

But I haven't been this excited to learn something/do something new in a very. long. time.

And it makes my fingers feel like there's life in them.

And every time my left hand fingers touch something and I get that sort of stinging jolt of feeling, numbed by the places I've held down the guitar strings for too long...I smile inside.

I have 108 unread posts in google reader, ahh that bolded Unread (108) makes me feel uneasy!

Reminder: don't get stressed by stupid things. duh. simple.

goodnight world, this is what happens when i decide to blog at (nearly) 2am.

my soul sings

turn your eyes

upon Jesus

look full in His wonderful face

and the things of earth

will grow strangely dim

in the light of His glory and grace

my soul sings

how i love you
