for a good cause

Yesterday, I spent more than RM100 on CDs at Canaan Home!! But I'll get to that later. The original plan was juz for me to follow my dad out to MP as he wanted to do something in the office while I shopped for some clothing. Okay, so I admit, I ain't much of a guy who has a taste in fashion. All I know is what color I like and what I needed to buy. Plain and simple. But it was like, soooo hard choosing a 3 quarters pants and a cargo for myself! I mean like, for crying out loud!! It's juz pants!! Why can't I find one that suites me?! And then I hit me like a 50kg weight dropped on my head - I'm a guy. Ahah!! I knew it! After talking loads of crap with the poor, innocent sales gal, I finally found the pants I wanted and bought it. But, that wasn't enough. Since I have the Adidas voucher worth RM50 I told myself, "Hey, since I'm here, why don't I shop for a shirt too?" And I did. Bought a dark grey Adidas shirt for RM4! Well, actually it's RM54.90. You get the idea.

Anyway, after finishing all we had to do in town, dad went to King Kong Fish Shoppe while I went to Canaan Home. Had a nice talk to Un Nelson and stuff. He was complaining about a customer who claimed that the CD she (yea, it's a "she") bought couldn't be played on her CD player and wanted to change a different CD. But when Un Nelson tried that CD out on his CD player, everything was fine. Weird huh? Okay, here's the list of CDs I wanna buy:

All Things New - Steven Curtis Chapman
The Beautiful Letdown - Switchfoot
Where Do We Go From Here - Pillar
Who We Are Instead - Jars Of Clay
Once Again - Fusebox
Sea Of Faces - Kutless
Speechless - SCC
Welcome To Diverse City - TobyMac

Switchfoot was out of stock so I had to choose others and since one CD is RM39.90 I could only buy 3 the max. Steven Curtis Chapman and Pillar is a must, so I had to choose one of the 5 CDs. Tough choice indeed. Since I'm a huge fan of Jars Of Clay, I bought Who We Are Instead by joc. All together, RM104 *gasp!!!!*. I reluctantly gave Nelson the money. And a good-hearted person like me who wants to support Nelson has to pay so much for an original CD. And to think I could've download all those songs but I didn't. And as I wanted to leave, I spotted to DVDs shinning on one of the shelves. They were dcTalk DVDs!!! WOAH~!! I'm a mega huge fan of dcTalk and there they were, dcTalk's Welcome To The Freakshow and Supernatural Live DVDs sitting still. It was then that I wished I was rich *sigh*. One DVD is around RM67 and I was out of cash!! But it was dcTalk DVDs!! DCTALK!! Who doesn't like dcTalk?! What more their live concerts!! Looks like I'm gonna burn more than RM200 on CDs and DVDs after all.

Oh God, if You would provide food for the birds in the air, I pray that You wouldn't mine filling up my bank with cash. Love Ya God~ *smiles*


Switchfoot
Dare You To Move

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself
Lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before
