New Blogger Template...My Futile Attempts

Tell me that you'll open your eyes, originally uploaded by Katie Tegtmeyer.

I am finally done tearing down and reconstructing the templates of two of my blogs.  It would have been an easy thing if only I am satisfied with the default blogger templates.  Well, after a few months, I already got tired of those templates.  I love to redesign things, much like rearranging home furniture.   It's always a refreshing thing to see changes, have different perspectives.

Monday Music : Take On Me

Some of you already know that I love guitar music.  So it's not surprising that I have subscribed to Sungha Jung's You Tube channel.  Every time he uploads a new video, I get an email notification.  This video is not his latest, but among the recent ones uploaded within the last couple of months.  I would say he started it out well with the tapping intro.  I'd say it's a difficult piece to execute on just one acoustic guitar.  You know the songs from the eighties, they use lots of those synthesizers that are hard to mimic on conventional instruments.  Listening to Sungha Jung's version of the song takes some getting used to, at least for me.  I've been so accustomed to the original version.  Anyway, here is the once cute little boy who's now all grown up.

Hide and Seek

105, originally uploaded by Mitya Kuznetsov.

This quote was part of the sermon from the service I attended yesterday. It caught my attention. After all, I am a woman.

“A woman's heart should be so hidden in God that a man has to seek Him just to find her.” --- Max Lucado

I like the idea here, but I'm sure not all women, or even men would agree. It will largely depend on a person's faith and convictions in life. Most often, people take matters into their own hands. But I feel that being in a romantic relationship is a crucial decision to ever leave it to chances. Sometimes, feelings alone is not a guarantee that we are making the right choice, not even with all the so-called right chemistry.

But imagine a relationship that's blessed by God. Now that is something to really look forward to.

A Chicken Has Rights...Even a Dead One

Chicken, originally uploaded by Mark Gstohl.

I think PETA would be all too pleased about that title...except of course when they get to read the whole content of this post. I hope I don't get a bashing as I am only expressing my opinion...in my own blog.

I have just read the article : Is this chicken too sexy? PETA thinks so  from Shine, one of Yahoo's sites. Looking at the picture made me laugh and that was the intention of the New York Times. But PETA claims it's necrophilia.

My Fave Song From Tyrone Wells

This is one of my favorites from Tyrone Wells.  Oh nothing...just chilling to some cool rock music....and yeah, maybe wondering where YOU are.  :-)

Cool huh? I like the simple sound of his electric guitar....would be nice on acoustic guitar as well.

Here are the lyrics, in case you want to sing along.  I suppose it's for anyone who's still wondering where his or her special someone is.

Will you like to watch the sunrise?
Will you have blue or brown eyes?
What are the dreams you long to share
I hope you like Stevey Wonder
Are you afraid of thunder?
I close my eyes and say a prayer you're out there somewhere

I've been waiting all of my life for you
I've been wishing on every shining star
I've been watching out of my window
Wondering where you are
Wondering where you are

My heart's my only treasure
Been saving it for your pleasure
Can't wait to give my heart to you
We'll walk this road together
That leads us to forever
I close my eyes and say a prayer you're out there somewhere

I've been waiting all of my life for you
I've been wishing on every shining star
I've been watching out of my window
Wondering where you are
Wondering where you are

Too many nights alone
And this house won't be a home
Until I'm with you

And I've been waiting all of my life for you
I've been wishing on every shining star

I've been waiting all of my life for you
I've been wishing on every shining star
I've been watching out of my window
Wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
I'm wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
I'm wondering where you are
Wondering where you are
