A Thousand Years

" I would die everyday waiting for you... Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years..."

 That's my favorite part in Christina Perri's song "A Thousand Years".  Whenever I hear that song, I always think dedicating it to my special someone (well, maybe in the future). But this morning at Grand Easter Feast, when it was sang, God just told me that the song is for me. God is dedicating it for me.

 He had died waiting for me... He'd loved me for a thousand years (actually, for more than 2 thousand years now!). And it wasn't just for me, it's His song for you too!

 So, if you feel unworthy or unloved, think again. Someone died for you because that Someone loves you. God had loved you even before you were born. He loves you now. And He will love you to the very end.



note: I wrote this after I attended Grand Easter Feast at SMX Convention Center last March 31, 2013.

Learning 한국어 (Hangugeo/Korean Language)

"Learning another language is not only learning different words for the same things,but learning another way to think about things." - Flora Lewis I'm into Korean dramas since I was in high school, Korean movies and food after I graduated from college, and this year I've been quite addicted to Korean variety shows and songs which lead me to be more interested in learning their language. My brother and I decided to enroll in Korean Cultural Center 's 3rd term (for this year) for Korean language class, but unfortunately the schedule that we wanted was already full. So, out of my desperation in wanting to learn the language, I decided to study it on my own. One thing I like about internet is that when you need to know something it's just a click away. So, I used this awesome benefit of the internet for my self-study of Hangugeo. And, here, I list the websites that I'm relying on: 1. Pinterest This is where I first learn how to write Korean lette

Pasinaya 2016 and Free Heritage Tour: Appreciating Philippine Art and History

Image
I, together with Mavic and Tetet, planned on joining the free heritage tour around Manila hosted by Royal Posted Heritage Guided Tour . The said tour set its meeting place in the Manila Post Office's lobby between 12:30-1 pm... Since we had a lot of time after attending the 8 am Mass at The Feast, we killed our time appreciating Philippine art at CCP for the 2016 Pasinaya Open House Festival. Anything that is related to Philippine art, whether it be a painting, drawing, song, dance, play you can see it at the festival. Since we were only killing time, we weren't able to see a lot, we spend more time on viewing paintings, drawings, and crafts. Various paintings displayed at the second floor of CCP Show your creative side with slippers Art using bleach. This one is my favorite among the all the artworks displayed at CCP.  Tetet writing on the freedom art piece Traditional costumes are also displayed You can even try making your own masterpiece.

  너무   맛있어요...  진짜  맛있어요... It's very delicious... Really delicious... My love for sweet food and Korean food has led me to an idea of trying to make a very popular Korean street food called Hotteok.  It is like the Korean version of our Piaya. Hotteok  seems hard to make but it isn't. But let me warn you, patience is needed to make this sweet snack. INGREDIENTS: Dough: 1/2 c. warm water 1/2 Tbsp. yeast 1/2 Tbsp. sugar 3 c. flour 1 c. milk 1/2 Tbsp. salt Filling: 1/4 c. brown sugar 1/4 c. white sugar 1/2 tsp. cinnamon powder 2 1/2 Tbsp. peanuts,chopped PROCEDURE: 1. Make the yeast mixture. Mix warm water, yeast, and  sugar. Set aside for approximately 5 minutes to allow yeast to grow. Make sure the water is warm and not hot.
