Lyrics:
Kanye West - I Wonder
Find your dreams come true
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
[chorus]
And I wonder if you know
What it means, what it means
And I wonder if you know
What it means to find your dreams
I've been waiting on this my whole life
These dreams be waking me up at night
You say I think I'm never wrong
You know what, maybe you're right, aight
[chorus]
You say he get on your fucking nerves
You hope that he get what he deserves, word
Do you even remember what the issue is
You just trying to find where the tissue is
You can still be who you wish you is
It ain't happen yet
And that's what the intuition is
When you hop back in the car
Drive back to the crib
Run back to their arms
The smokescreens
The chokes and the screams
You ever wonder what it all really mean
[chorus]
And I'm back on my grind
A psychic read my lifeline
Told me in my lifetime
My name would help light up the Chicago skyline
And that's what I'm
Seven o'clock, that's primetime
Heaven'll watch, God calling from the hot lines
Why he keep giving me hot lines
I'm a star, how could I not shine
How many ladies in the house
How many ladies in the house without a spouse
Something in your blouse got me feeling so aroused
What you about
On that independent shit
Trade it all for a husband and some kids
You ever wonder what it all really mean
You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams

and the end of summer is near.... i literally wanna cry....
it didnt start well at all.... i thought my life was falling apart for the 2nd time, but luckily things were able to be worked out.... and then softball and working out occupied most of my time.... it was really fun..... softball was amazing, even though we lost.... we learn more from losing than from winning, right? i certainly learned a lot.... i may have been spoiled by our win last year.. but i have the expectations of a championship (or the ultimate prize) in everything i do.... i have the perfectionist's mentality.... i expect perfection out of myself....
it's absolute bs that summer's ending... life flashes by us faster and faster each second of our lives.... has anyone noticed that life passes by quicker as we get older? can anyone explain this?
i wanna speak more on softball.....our team this year lost in the semis by 3 or 4 runs.... i'll take the blame for this one.... i made numerous mistakes, not just in that game, but the whole tourney.... i'm sorry team.... i didnt play up to my ability/potential the whole season.... i'm quite disappointed with myself
on the other hand, i met some incredible people while getting to know some ppl even better!! which is absolutely great!! i'm thinking bout captaining next year.... i think i'm ready for that step... but that's 8 months from now (in april right?), many things can happen in between now and then...
speaking of that, it's almost time to go to uni.... i'm quite scared that i wont be able to focus... then i wont achieve what i want/need and i'll be wasting my dad's money....~sigh~
WAY camp was AMAZING... i got back last thursday night and i regret not joining WAY eearlier.... i also regret not speaking during our all-nighter at the campfire.... i had so much on my mind, so much that i wanted to share.... i was too busy trying to organize how i'd say it all....by the time i figured it out, i lost my turn to speak and it was over..... ~sigh~ but being on the beach and watching the stars and sunrise was an amazing experience that i wouldnt trade away....
~sigh~ so many more things to reflect on, yet i cant remember em, or i dont have the energy to comment on
but there is one more thing,and that's a big THANK YOU for those who presented the song "You Will Never Walk Alone" in the sanctuary to the graduates this morning (in chinese and english service,hehe!)... this song really hit back home and it gives me more hope when i'm in need of whatever....
so i guess this is the end of my highschool life/summer life.... i'm experienced so many ends that i detest the feeling.... yet i will never cry again for these things (or so i think), because i've been in so many of the same situations... i know if we are REAL friends, we will meet again...it's not "goodbye", it's "till we meet again"
thanks for reading.... any feedback is nice.... but giving none is fine too since not many ppl read it..... God Bless
