Well It has been a month (technically 29 days) since my last post. Sorry to the few of you who read, or even the fewer who care. I think I will write a post now. GCN was fantastic. Playing the grinch was a blast, and I must say I pity that poor girl I scared in the front row (shes okay, we're pen pals now! Who knew relieving someone of their bejeebers would compel them to friend request you?) Well, it's over and I must say I needed the rest badly. And right when I needed it most came Disney World. After a long year, nothing caps it off better than christmas in Walt's dream land. Space mountain looks just like space by the way. I DID finish my Huey Dewey and Louie set, and the Maelstrom may not be wet enough for a poncho but that water troll is thrilling enough. Thank you Eduardo for my magical moment. Thank you Ashlyn for being great at being a Disney Cast Member/Host. Love you, kid. Nothing is better than walking out in front of Cinderella Castle covered in ice. even if you are laboring with bronchitis. ow.... In closing I would like to finish in a usual fashion by recommending music. 1: Soundtrack of Illuminations, the fireworks show in Epcot. 2: Beck. This guy is so unusual in his song writing. Check out his song Girl.
Out.

Missed Opportunities/God's Plan
Hello For Starters,
I will now engage the subject of missed opportunities. I feel like we have alot of these. Those things that almost or could've happened but didn't because you chose a different path somewhere before, or you just didn't take a chance. I also feel sad when I've known someone my whole life but never really developed a friendship with them like I would like (That's you, Jesse Woon). I, like most people, have some regret about things I've done, and choices I've made. I often wish I could redo a day or a sentence or something and make it better. I often wish I could take something back, or try something new. But then I am reminded (usually by something amazing) that what has happened to me was exactly on purpose. I've learned to find it encouraging when something doesn't work out, cause that just means that it wasn't supposed to; that God's looking out for me, and has a different idea of where I should be. I am so glad to know that the plan maker of my life is someone so much smarter and wiser than I am. My God saw my life before I was born, and sees ahead of me when I cannot. I missed my thanksgiving post so I this is what I'm thankful for. That God has blessed me so richly with happiness, family, friends, and a plan for my life to do exactly for him what he wants me to. So, in closing, I would urge you to find strength when life is kicking you, and find that God has so much in store for you, and that whatever happens to you is for your own good according to His plan for your life. Amen

On a day like today
Does anybody see the sunshine on a day like today? Does anybody just pass time watching it pass away? Does anybody wonder what happened to the rain and the thunder on a day like today? No, we just stay inside, never opening our eyes wide and just waste away. I want to take hold of this time I have, before I have to give it back and it’s all gone for good, while I’m still young enough to look forward to days when I’ll look back remembering my childhood. Why can’t we fall in the summer time, relax in the spring, spring up in the wintertime and just do anything? I want to dance to no music, sing without a tune, find out life has a meaning, and howl at the moon, because my life is short enough on its own and I don’t want to finish soon.
On a day like today, when everything is moving slow, there’s nothing I should know, there’s nowhere I should go. Just sit back and watch the world move at its own fine pace, let the fickle winter breeze bring shivers to my face.

Music
I realized I haven't posted in a while (ish). So I decided to post about music.
Music is the passion that fuels my life (Speaking of things outside of God of course). It is the one thing I can cling to when everything is wrong or changing (once again, outside of God). I am always finding new music I love (Thank you XM Radio). Music is my way of praising God, expressing emotion, and just plain getting by. I've realized lately that just about everything I've ever done involves music. everything. It really does make the world go round. When I'm doing dishes: John Mayer or Keane. When I'm riding in the car: Switchfoot, Kings of Leon, or Keane. When I'm sleepy or feeling very dreamy I have Norah Jones, Ray Lamontagne, and Keane. And then there's that anytime at all music: Gavin Degraw, John Mayer, NEEDTOBREATHE, and dare I say again, Keane (Have I mentioned I love me some Keane? well I do). If you ever need some new music to listen to, ask me, cause I have alot of variety in my playlist. Like Keane.
in closing, :B (Buck teeth)

Sometimes
Sometimes music has no dancers. Sometimes questions have no answers. Sometimes it’s the future that brings us our fear. Sometimes we hear things we don’t want to hear. As love takes, patience, faith and trust, we must hope for the happiness of those around us. Nothing comes easily, nothing comes free. No one can explain my life to me. Sometimes I wonder what God is thinking.
So...Now what?
Right now I am taking a what's to come check. Do I know what's to come? No. Check. I am for once in my life going with the flow. Whatever flow that may be, I'm right in the current, and I'm enjoying going where it takes me. Do what you will with me, God, cause I'm done with always having a plan.
