Hey guys!

'elloha!
How's it going? i feel cheery for some reason, i don't really know why, well i do, but if i say most of you won't understand (yet!) but i hope you will one day (ooh, sounds ominous!) but its the greatest thing ever, and no i haven't just had sex, believe me this is MUCH better! (not that i've had sex yet but hey lets not go there!) AAAAAAAAnyhoo, party was fun, shame i had to go though, everyone had a good (probably better!) time once i left? ladida, ahh well here i am back at uni again. Its getting better but its still hard work making friends, i went to mass again for really the simple reason, to meet people, but in the process i think i decided catholicism really isn't for me, some parts sure i agree with, but that's nothing the other churches couldn't adopt had they some vision, but alas, why can't everyone just agree on everything !!!! anyway, no definately not catholicism, not at uni anyway, no drums! i had my first go on the drums today at church, in the service! ahh so much fun!!! i HAVE to get a set of tubs! but money, oh the scourge of well, the whole world, prevents me from obtaining such an instrument, and also the issue of nowhere to put them, i don't think my college room is quite big enough, but it would be SOO fun. I don't know, what do you reckon; a marshall 250 watt amp/a set of drums? i'd just go for both, if i had the cash, but at the moment, i can't have either. But WHY do i keep complaining about money. Flippin 'eck, if i went to some countries i'd be millionaire, earning more in an hour at my job than some people probably do in a week! and who cares about material possessions anyway, they're only fun for a bit, plus you can't take 'em with you. Right well, i think i've sufficiently emptied my brain of all its random thought processes for me to start formulating some more as i sleep; ok so something you may be slightly, possibly, remotely interested in; I hope you guys are all ok? it was cool seeing everyone again, just like old times (except the old times had less nurses uniforms) well at least he kept it on this time!!!! X O
was good though, missin' the old days, but i suppose we all move on, just make sure we all move on together! Let me know when we're next meeting, or like i always say, give me some advance notice and my college room door is always open to visitors! So there you go, randomness in a post, well it wouldn't be the first time! Have a good time guys, take it easy, have fun, be ready, and God bless <><

Fragile

Mr Andy flan wrote this song not long after the tsunami in asia. Just a few months before he was working on an island, living alongside the people, helping, playing with the children. After, nearly all of the people he had met were dead, and the village destroyed....

Why does life have to be this fragile?
Why is there a death so close to birth?
Why does life have to be this fragile?
Here on earth.

The same waves that brought you crashing in with joy
Are the same waves that leave your universe destroyed
And the same sand that once warmed this white man’s toes
Makes graves for your silent flesh and bone.

Smiles that I will not forget
Joy that left me in your debt

Why does life have to be this fragile?
Why is there a death so close to birth?
Why does life have to be this fragile?
Here on earth.


The same air that once filled your life with breath
Same air brings the choking stench of death
Same nets that put food upon your plate
Lie cast like the die that sealed your fate

Reason here has lost its rhyme
And words feel empty at this time

Why does life have to be this fragile?
Why is there a death so close to birth?
Why does life have to be this fragile?
Here on earth.

The same man that the winds and waves obeyed,
Is the same man who was the first one to know pain
Same man could keep control of everything
Same man knows more than me about suffering

So calm this overwhelming force
As earth and heaven seem divorced.

But why does life have to be this fragile?
Why is there a death so close to birth?
Why does life have to be this fragile?
Here on earth.

A sad sad day

I went into brum t'other day to a couple of guitar shops, its ws lots of fun pretending to have loads of money (by checking out all the expensive gear, looking at the four figure price tags and saying "oh, thats a vry good price") and trying it all out, and of course, when they think you're out to spend, they let you turn it up as loud as you want! But alas, despite the facade, the only money i had in my pocket was just enough for the bus ticket home, i didn't even come out with a new plectrum! And guess what, it gets worse, even though i have to live off money that's not mine even now i'm gonna have to give up my job too, so that means no new guitars for at least another 4 years! how will i ever cope!? on average i've had two per year since i've started playing, not anymore :'''(

Are you bored?

If you haven't discovered sites like this one yet, well, you should! they're so much fun when you haven't got anything to do (i.e. when you're at uni!) i haven't tried all the games, but one i spent over an hour on last night (yea, i know i'm sad!) is black knight, try it, see if you can get past level 12! http://www.arcadetown.com

For all you're worth....

Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth

By this time you know the story
There's nothing there you haven't heard
You can cross the line of knowing
And your heart believing His Word
Do you think He brought you this far
Just to leave you wondering where and who you are
Just think back to where it began
Jesus called you name and then you just took His hand

Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth

Even gold still needs refining
Burning off impurities
Even diamonds grow in value
When they're cut so carefully
There's no life beyond His repair
You will find Him waiting just beyond a prayer
He invested all that He had
Don't you think it hurts Him inside to see you sad

Hold on to life for all you're worth
You know He died for all you're worth
He loves you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth

He has His eye on you
You have the greatest value
He gave His life for all
For all you're worth
For all you're worth

Yoydle!

All you who decided not to go to uni; You're more intelligent than the academics.
