water into wine

One of my classmates has a habit of singing when he is happy. This would be pretty much okay if he sang a variety of songs instead of just the obscure one or two, sang in tune, and didn't try hold a (flat) note for longer than the song itself. He has headphones, so no one else really knows what he's listening too, but if it's anything like his vocals it might be a blessing in disguise. His musical range is interesting, as he seems to know an octave of four keys, none of them harmonious.

It's times like this I wish I could sleep, she said to herself & with that thought spent another hour wondering if there was anything she'd missed so that when she gets up tomorrow she can go do it, provided she has a sleep to wake up from in the first place.

Trapped mainly by wanting things to be exactly as they are, only better

It's an invention, he said. What's it do? I said. I don't know, he said. It's not finished yet.

I never met the Devil (yet) but I imagine it's a pretty scary experience but then again I guess that's the point.

being as careful as possible because even though he's not sure exactly where he's going, he knows there are some parts of it he's just going to hate

I am proud to be from a tiny blip
on the corner of the world.
Uniquely packed with people,
places, history, food,
and hopes for the future.

Like a diamond on the crust of the earth
A million lightbulbs facing the sun
it will never change, but does so every day.

Once home of tigers, it has nine dragons still.
All manner of folk walk it's streets,
fill it's trains, buses, cars, planes,
here, in this tiny blip
on the corner of the world.

It's so much easier to write a blog entry than do this assigment that's due on moooonndaaaaayyy!!

Daily Bible Verse, April 22, 2008:

Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.

Psalm 42:11

How do you put your hope in someone when you can't see what you should be doing or work out what's wrong?

my capstone project.

The Vine Band has just launched their new album From Ashes to Beauty. The album contains 13 songs, including a special recording of God of Justice with Tim Hughes.

If you've not heard of them yet I highly recommend checking them out and listening to a few of their songs from this album and their previous one "Who May Ascend?" at www.thevineband.com.
