My favorite song of the week: Beauty from Pain

The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I'm aliveBut I feel like I've diedA
nd all that's left is to accept that it's over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I'm slipping away
After all this has passedI still will remain
After I've cried my lastThere'll be beauty from pain
Though it won't be todaySomeday I'll hope again
And there'll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain
My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I wonder why God let me walk through this place
And though I can't understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how You've brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames
Here and I am at the end of me (at the end of me)
Trying to hold to what I can't seeI forgot how to hope
This night's been so long
I cling to your promise there will be a dawn

Am I becoming more technologically advanced?

Facebook me!
Anyway, this is the link (I think at least) to my facebook account. I'm not exactly sure how to connect all of these thing together thusfar, but whatever. Plus, in case I didn't say it last night: I almost died of pizza poisoning yesterday. Sad.

I was viewed

My blog was looked at the other day (or perhaps today). That's fun. About the job-thing. Yes, I did in fact quit my job. There are numerous reasons, but I'll leave it at...I didn't feel it was the place I was meant to be anymore (and had been wondering this for a while) and then a string of events happened so that I figured it was fate to take a break from that job and grab some time to myself before possibly trying to find something else that intrigues me. To all of you who had the interesting question...No; as far as I know, I'm not pregnant. That is not the reason I quit my job. Although I look foward to the day when we do have kids, that day is not today. Congrats to all of my friends who are though. Very exciting news for y'all. What else... I found the leak in my house (the reason it's been close to freezing). The window with the air conditioning unit in it had a major crack about an inch by 6" (hence feeling a draft and wondering why it was so much colder than last year). I was able to go to knitting night tonight. That was nice. I haven't done that in months. I've been learning some new things which is always...interesting. My mom's doing well which is good. Haven't spoken with mi hermanito in quite a while and think I might call him tonight, but I went to Subway and got some pizza from Dominoes (funny, right). I ate three pieces. I'm pretty sure my body's still in shock. I honestly am afraid to go to sleep for fear I won't wake up. I don't know why. It's not like I'm being all that healthy and I even drained off most of the grease from the slices, but my body is massively dissaproving of that choice for dinner. I should've gone with the mac & cheese (the other thing I was craving). I'm hoping I'll get over it by midnight so I can sleep it off. We'll see. I don't remember exactly what my last blog was about (save that it spoke slightly of hair)...so I wanted to say that I finally took a shower today (no, Christopher still hasn't finished the laundry) and when I tried to brush my hair, I just about tore half of it out. Seriously, I think my hair even looks thinner b/c I killed so much of it. Oh well. Heart

Who needs to brush hair?

Today was the first of three days that I finally brushed my hair. I know. You're impressed. What can I say? I curled it and you can't just brush it when it's all curly-crazy and then it still looked decent the next day and then it got not-so nice-ish so I finally brushed it. I still haven't taken a shower b/c Chris has yet to finish the laundry (aka if I took a shower I wouldn't be able to dry off and that's no fun). By the way, I can feel it coming again. I'm trying to fight it, but I don't know how strong I am. I am going to try and focus on all of the things that you can only do during the winter (or that are a lot easier during the winter). And be happy. Heart.
