Light of the world

You are like light for the whole world. No one would light a lamp and put it under a clay pot. A lamp is placed where it can give light to everyone in the house. Make your light shine, so that others will see the good u do and will praise your Father in Heaven.

Universal Studios Hollywood

Aloha! It's me again posting some pictures from my weekend :)
First, I've been posting wedding or engagement pictures and I'll put some short stories, quotes or taglines with it. And I found myself get into a romantic feeling when I started to write it and believe or not I can imagine myself on their shoes and writing my own love story..hahahaha... It helps the lovey dovey words to come out from my mind easily... Pardon my cheesiness +.+

So, we went to Universal Studios Hollywood last Saturday. It was fun but can't compare this to Orlando Universal Studios. It's only small park with 10 shows and rides, Orlando got more! Poisedon, spiderman, etc... The new King Kong 3D thumbs up!
I love to see the movie set because here in Hollywood, there's where the movie were taken actually. Here's some pictures of the movie set after photoshop! hahha...To bring the feel of the set!

















































This one is made on coroplast. cool huh?! but of course the color is enhanced since the color was so light.

And the highlight of my day is capturing this picture... Sadly, I didn't bring my SLR camera so I took all these pictures with my pocket camera. "Zorro" and "Elena" was dancing Spanish tango which referred to as Malaguena, variety of tango , flamenco, fandago, etc.. love the feel, love the movement, just L.O.V.E IT !

God's Masterpiece

When God chisels the dead weight out of our lives it can be very painful. In this video skit, Tommy and Eddie from The Skit Guys give a very creative look at a typical believer having to go through the process of discipline.

Feelings

Feelings...

When you're feeling good, you can't imagine life being any better. But when you're feeling bad, it's like the world is caving in on you.

Feelings are like waves - they come out of nowhere, crash into us and leave us scrambling until the next one comes rolling in.

Are you in control of your feelings or are your feelings in control of you?

One thing for sure, you are more than what you feel. Your feelings don't define who you are...

Just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean you have to bow down to those feelings. It's impossible to enjoy life the way God wants you to when you're prisoner of your feelings. God gave us feelings not to get rid of it and live like a robot. Instead, God wants us to enjoy them and find freedom to manage them instead of them managing and leading you.

That's why we need to anchor ourselves to Words of God because it allows us to know and trust God more than we trust our feelings.

Can miles separate you from your love one?


Can miles truly separate you from your love one? Might be...but not with this couple with one of them lives in Los Angeles and the other in San Diego. Commuting 2-3 hours is not something uncommon for them, visiting each others on the weekend. One could give more when they are given, God loves them first and the love grows within them to love others.

A fun photoshoot day with this couple. Monica and Shawn always look so happy and passionate to each others so it's so easy to capture lovely moment from them. Check out their few sneakpeeks here and the rest, you can find it on my facebook page Eliteonearth Photography

Whenever you feel a warm breeze brush against you, that's the kiss I blew to you.

Courageous by Casting Crowns




Courageous
By Casting Crowns

We were made to be courageous
We were made to lead the way
We could be the generation
That finally breaks the chains
We were made to be courageous
We were made to be courageous

We were warriors on the front lines
Standing, unafraid
But now we're watchers on the sidelines
While our families slip away

Where are you, men of courage?
You were made for so much more
Let the pounding of our hearts cry
We will serve the Lord

We were made to be courageous
And we're taking back the fight
We were made to be courageous
And it starts with us tonight

The only way we'll ever stand
Is on our knees with lifted hands
Make us courageous
Lord, make us courageous

This is our resolution
Our answer to the call
We will love our wives and children
We refuse to let them fall

We will reignite the passion
That we buried deep inside
May the watchers become warriors
Let the men of God arise

We were made to be courageous
And we're taking back the fight
We were made to be courageous
And it starts with us tonight

The only way we'll ever stand
Is on our knees with lifted hands
Make us courageous
Lord, make us courageous

Seek justice
Love mercy
Walk humbly with your God

In the war of the mind
I will make my stand
In the battle of the heart
And the battle of the hand

We were made to be courageous
And we're taking back the fight
We were made to be courageous
And it starts with us tonight

The only way we'll ever stand
Is on our knees with lifted hands
Make us courageous
Lord, make us courageous

We were made to be courageous
Lord, make us courageous

"Courageous" is also featured in the upcoming movie Courageous, in theaters September 30, 2011. For more information, visit http://courageousthemovie.com & http://castingcrowns.com.

Crushcake Cupcakery

I love something sweet especially chocolate! My friend brought me cupcakes from Santa Barbara from their labor day weekend gateway.. Woot! Woot! There's this cupcakery at Santa Barbara that have a good review on yelp name Cruschcakes .


I have never been to the cafe itself, but from the review saying that the cafe has a great atmosphere and cute décor, would love to check out the place next time I visit Santa Barbara.
Inside the cute boxes, there are 4 different cupcakes' flavors which is their signature cupcake "Crushcake" - A red velvet topped with chocolate heart dipped into sour cream frosting ;
"Lemon Drop" - Luscious lemon cake with sweet lemon frosting and fresh lemon zest ;
"Strawberry Blush" - Fresh strawberry cake topped with rosy pink strawberry frosting ;
and the last one is "Cool Vanilla Bean" - The name itself is already cool! hahha.. It's simply vanilla cake topped with vanilla bean frosting.

(one cupcake is missing from this picture, u know where is it *blushing*)

There is a saying "You can't look at a cupcake without smiling", well I guess for me is true. Even I haven't put this small little thing into my mouth, I'm already smile widely because of the color, cuteness and I know it gonna be sweet on every bites.

When it comes to regular meal,I'm pretty simple. Give me something sugary, salty, crunchy or soft - and I'm satisfied. But when it comes to dessert, I'll very picky since I don't like it too sweet or else it'll ruin the original flavor of the food itself. Just give me chocolate, white or dark with no filling inside, I'll be sitting happily. LOL!

A little history lesson about cupcakes:

A cupcake (British English: fairy cake; Australian English: patty cake or cup cake) is a small cake designed to serve one person, frequently baked in a small, thin paper or aluminum cup. As with larger cakes, frosting and other cake decorations, such as sprinkles, are common on cupcakes. Although their origin is unknown, recipes for cupcakes have been printed since at least the late 18th century. ( Source: Wikipedia )

Sweet food or desserts especially chocolate contain phenylethylamine which is the same chemical that our brain produces when we fall in love.

So chocolate cupcakes = ♥ ♥ Love ♥ ♥


Love is sweet... Sweet like a cupcake...
