Refreshed...


Ever get that feeling that you have to do something.
Something that you wouldn't normally do.
Something that just seems weird, outlandish.
Could be big, could be small.
I just know that it happened to me recently.
And I can tell you, when I did it, it felt amazing.

Occasionally we'll just feel dry, like nothing is working.
Everything we try to do just doesn't help at all.
Then, out of nowhere, you get that small nudge.
That tap on the shoulder.
Then that small suggestion...
"you should do this, it'll work a treat"
And, of course, it works.
Every. Single. Time.

God is just that amazing.

Because ice-cream is just amazing...

I just ran out of apple juice.
Now I am sad.
So very sad.
Well, actually I'm not.
But hey, at least I have ice-cream!

Today... I had a meeting.
A good, fun, kind of scary meeting.
It was in regards to the program for camp this summer.
Impact, it's gonna ROCK people!

Still... it was scary, because it made me realise something.
A lot of what is happening this camp rides on me being in charge.
It rides on me organising stuff.
Not just running stuff, but being the behind the scene person.
Making sure all the items that are needed are provided.
It's kind of a big step...

One that I think I'm ready for... but it's still scary to think about.

I mean, programming can't be that hard, right?
It'll all come together though :)
I mean, it's camp.
It always works ^.^

My ice-cream melted :(

It IS just that amazing...


I've been thinking a lot about it today.
It's been quite prevalent today.
So, why not blog about it?

Music.
It moves us. It changes how we feel.
It inspires us. It challenges us.
It's an integral part of the lives of many.
And it's ridiculously hard to explain.

Today, I played my new bass for the first time.
I pulled out my guitar as well, and mucked around on that.
I heard numerous new songs and artists today.
I spoke about it to numerous friends.
Yet, I didn't even begin to scratch the surface on what music really is.

Something that has been on the edge of my mind lots recently is songwriting.
I spoke about it to friends today, and I've frequently thought about it.
I have this belief that I can't write songs.
To be honest, I've never really tried.
I've always had the "I wouldn't be good at it" or the "I wouldn't know what to write about" excuse.
And even now, laying here, I wouldn't have a clue what to write a song about.
But now I want to try it.

I want to see what it's like to piece together lyrics.
To attach them to some chords, or a riff.
To see how they go together.
And if it fits together well, I want to be able to play it.
Not necessarily show it to other people.
But to sit down, by myself, and just play my song.
That I made.

I imagine it would be among the best feelings in the world.
I also imagine it would be an extremely personal thing to do.
Writing a song, especially if it's about yourself.
Or your life.
I have so much respect for those who write it.
Even more for those who share it.



Music...
So hard to explain.
So easy to love.
So inspirational...

I like rainbows...


They look good.
I always wanted to try to find gold at the bottom of a rainbow.
There was a time where it was the most important thing in my life.
To reach the end of that rainbow...





...I always envisioned it as being an amazing event.
Rainbows (obviously), sparkly skies, a sunny backdrop.
For some reason, a pony just came to mind.
Although, I'd rather there not be one there.


And then there's the pot of gold. With a leprechaun or two, because they're cool.
Just dancing around the gold.

If I found that as a kid, my world would've been turned upside down.
It would have been amazing.
I've always wanted the supernatural world to exist.
(Note, I mean like, magic and shiz, not the God side of supernatural, because I know that exists)
But yeah, magic and stuff would be so cool.
Like, really cool.


And all the amazingly sweet creatures that'd come with such a world.
It'd be all sweet and peachy.

I love rainbows. :D

It's kinda stupid...

When I woke up today, I was not allowed to supervise anyone at a pool as a lifeguard.
When I go to sleep tonight, I will be allowed to lifeguard pools.
Yet, I feel like I know nothing more now than I did then.
The only thing that's different is that I did this 2 hour session at a pool.
And now I'm apparently allowed to lifeguard shiz.
Makes no sense.

Which makes me wonder how many people there are out there, who are 'qualified' to do stuff, but if a situation actually arose, they wouldn't have a clue what on earth to do.
Like, now, I could stand and watch a pool full of people, and legally ensure they're safe.

But if anything happened, I'd be all like "what do I dooooooo?" and everyone would die.
Kinda scary.

Therefore, I'm gonna eat some oranges, and it'll all be k.

That is all :)

Because WEDGIE!...

Yes.
That's right.
I just gave you a MASSIVE wedgie.
Like, truly HUGE! The hugest wedgie you've ever received.

Not really. I'm just kidding.
I didn't give you a wedgie. That would be mean.
And I'm an exceptionally nice person.

However, this text appears to be smaller than usual.
Shall we do something about it?
I think so..
...
...

*does something amazing and magical*

HERE WE ARE!
Is this better? Actually...
It's way too big. 
I'll change it again. Just wait.
...
...

There. It's better than before.
Much more readable.
Now... for the main point of this post.

I actually don't think there's a point to this.
I actually wanted to write a poem of some sort.
Except I had no inspiration, and no poem writing ability.
So that ended well.
I should write a story!
Yes :D I'll do that.
Actually... I have one I can post here already.
I'ma do that.
BYE!
