Hiya, Stephanie. :D
Metal15: First of all, what's up?
Stephanie: Life's fine, I think. Nothing too significant yet. But if there's any, I'll let you know. LOL :)
Metal15: How's the weather?
Stephanie: It is insaaaane. Sometimes it's scorching hot then all of a sudden, rain will pour down heavily. It's just unpredictable. Crazy. :|
Metal15: What country do you live in? (If I may ask...)
Stephanie: I'm somewhere from the east. Philippines, specifically.
Metal15: What life experiences have shaped your outlook/worldview on life?
Stephanie: Guess I have tons. But I'll share you this one. I was born into a christian family. I grew up learning that I should pray and read the bible every day, go to church every sunday, and all the usual christian stuff we know. It went sort of routinely. I knew something was wrong, but I didn't take time to learn what was wrong. 'Till I got into junior high, and I had my first relationship...with a lesbo. (yeah like I know, you're all giving me that odd stare with one eyebrow raised. ((Metal15: nooooo :) )) Haha! Nothing too intimate happened, it was more of an emotional thingy. Promise!) Yes, I'm a christian and I got myself into that stuff. Yes, I knew it was wrong but you see, when we aren't that deeply rooted to the Word of God, even though we are Christians already, we can still get entrapped into Satan's pit holes. My parents learned about it and they were really disappointed about me. I asked God for forgiveness and I know he did forgive. Dude, everyone knows how merciful he is, right? But you know, sometimes though we already repented and like turned our backs 180 degrees from whatever sin it may be, still something like drags us back from doing it. And yeah, another similar incident happened and this time, with one of my closest girl friends. It was even harder because we were like considered "twins". Imagine this, we have the same taste for most stuff (music, food, even with crushes. Little did she know that I was already in love with her). I never told her about it coz it would just freak her out and apparently, she never approves to this kind of thingy. 'Till she started dating this guy and yeah, you could really tell it was super hurting for me. Before, I was the one whom she'd always had breakfast lunch and dinner with (since we got into the same company when we had our internship), I was the one waiting for her every day so we could hit the office together. Like we did everything together. But then when this guy entered, it was like my doomsday. I cried about this because I knew it wasn't right (like at the back of my mind, my conscience is fighting with my earthly thinking and stuff). But I guess God will always make ways to save us from sins. It's sort of a long story (apparently) but the bottom-line is, God is really good. My point is, ALWAYS keep ourselves guided by God's word. You can never go wrong with that. Trust me. :)
Metal15: What are your views on God? And do you believe that he's watching you 24/7?
Stephanie: My views on God? Haha do I need to explain this in theological way or what? LOL. He's the Alpha and Omega. He's my savior, the lover of my soul, my best friend, my Father. What else? And yep, he's defo watching us 24/7. Don't you just feel overly secured by that thought? That is just so sweet. Free lifetime protection and security. It's just unbeatable.
Metal15: Do you believe in Heaven and Hell? If so, what are your basic opinions on that subject?
Stephanie: Of course I believe in Heaven and Hell. Heaven is your ultimate destination when you already have accepted Christ Jesus as your personal Lord and Savior. Well Hell, like this is your final destination if you haven't accepted Christ as your Savior. Like once you're in Hell, there's no way out. So better accept Christ's free gift of salvation and eternal life before it's too late.
Metal15: Do you believe there is such a thing as "Predestination", and that every action and decision you make has been "Predestined" and known by God?
Stephanie: Yes. I really don't know much about this to be honest, but all I know is that God knows everything. He knows our future very well. Yes we do have our own free-will but yeah, still God knows our future. (I just didn't make any sense, did I?) ((Metal15: Actually, I think you summed it up QUITE well. :D ))
Metal15: Do you believe in Pre-marital abstinence? Explain your views.
Stephanie: Of course YES! Like this is the most special gift you can offer your partner in the future. Others say that staying "pure" until marriage is so cliche and just so traditional but it is one thing that I think we should ponder about. It's quite saddening that most people, even teens, are into premarital sex. Okay I may sound like your old mom preaching a lot about this but it just tears me apart to see these poor girls especially when they give their everything to a certain guy, then all of a sudden, the guy just vanishes and something like that. Not just a thing that teens must be reminded of, but I guess all ages. Stay pure and undefiled. Better to wait for God's perfect timing for that.
Metal15: Do you believe in dating? BF/GF?
Stephanie: Dating? I think so. Well, exclusive dating for that matter I guess. Just don't go beyond the limit. And date because you love each other, not just because it's like your past time and you're bored or whatever. Coz that's what I see with most dating couples out there. Definitely a wrong thing. When you date, you invest time and emotions and all that. I just don't really see the point why people date, get themselves into a relationship then when things start going wrong they just leave. It makes me frustrated seeing and hearing stories like this. That's why I think that when it comes to relationships, we should always let God take control of it. I know that he has already prepared that special someone for us. In His time, He'll let us know who that person is. So don't rush, enjoy life. But yeah, guess I'm okay with the dating stuff. But like what I've said, don't go beyond the borders. :)
Metal15: Do you have a favorite band/musical group?
Stephanie: Nothing in particular actually. Whatever my mood demands me to listen to, then I listen to it. Haha! But personal picks would be Christian music of course (Kutless, Starfield, Brandon Heath, Casting Crowns, Lifehouse, Skillet and others that would take too long to write lol), some stuff from the late 80's and 90's I guess. Just not rap. <-----((Metal15: I'm sorry, I just felt the need to bold, underline, and enlarge those last few words... :D ))
Metal15: Do you have a favorite song of all time?
Stephanie: I don't really know to be honest. If a certain song suddenly speaks to me like "hey, this is your story. I am telling your story." then it becomes my fave song. So if you're asking me what are my favorites, there's a lot in my list. Haha! Well the song that I'm sort of inclined to now is "Stupid Boy" by Keith Urban.
Metal15: Do you have a favorite book series?
Stephanie: Nope. Nothing specifically. But I read, of course. :)
Metal15: What's your favorite movie/movies?
Stephanie: Titanic. *Then I can now sing my heart will go on* LOL
Metal15: Do you have a personal site? After this interview people might be thinking "Whoa, this girl is awesome, I wanna check out her blog/twitter/facebook/website..." etc.
Stephanie: LOL. Facebook I guess? https://www.facebook.com/cannegrey?ref=tn_tnmn And Google+ is https://plus.google.com/u/0/108724938990400356942
Metal15: And lastly...How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
Stephanie: Hmm ... whuuuaaaaat? O.O
Thanx, Stephanie, and have a great day! :D
