Phenomenon

by Thousand Foot Krutch

If you like us, calling all riders
Pull up beside us, no place to hide us
We’re freedom fighters, let’s unite us
Switch on your nitros, and. let’s. go.

Destination, for navigation, man up your stations
Feel the sensation
Surround invasion, with communication
Move quick, we might avoid contamination

CHORUS
Down, here comes the sound,
everyone pound your feet to this Phenomenon
Now, let’s make it loud,
and let me show them all how you move to this Phenomenon
Woah, open your soul, baby, lose control, inside of this Phenomenon
Just let yourself go, and let everyone know,
you moved to this Phenomenon

Don’t let these spiders crawl up beside us,
they want to bite us, inject the virus
Raise up your lighters, praise to the Righteous, need You to guide us
Get prepared to go

BRIDGE
CHORUS

Can’t take it anymore, shaken till we move the floor
What are we waiting for? Lets go!
Tired of being ordinary, don’t care if theres people staring
I know you said you’d carry me … on
I’m not invisible like you, next time things get a little messed up
I’ll shine, but I’ll never be see-through
I’m fine just trying to wake the rest up

CHORUS

You moved this Phenomenon
You moved this Phenomenon

Though he slay me, yet will I hope in him; I will surely defend my ways to his face.

~Job 13:15

Pride and humility

Haven’t blogged for a while…I struggle with the purpose of blogging. For one thing, I have my own personal journal where I cry out to God about everything. (Yes, I know - you’re relieved you don’t have to hear my constant complaints, I know). I guess I blog because it’s a way to keep in touch with people, to tell them how I’m doing/what I’ve been learning. Sometimes I blog just because it’s fun to have my thoughts out there on the internet. har har.

Okay, so update on this term. Academically, I’m pretty much completely lost in Stats, anatomy is killing me. I’m doing OKAY I guess in the other courses. But not nearly as well as I want. Outside of school, it’s mostly been just playing badminton, going to fellowship, “accountability”, job hunting, housing hunting, QT. I don’t have a lot on my plate, but it still is busy and I still never get enough sleep. Whoopeee:)

Something I’ve been learning this term is to suck up my pride and ask for help. I have this problem where I think everything is hopeless and I just can’t do school. But then I don’t seek the help to understand concepts or whatever. I’m scared to ask questions because I don’t even know what I don’t know. I don’t know what questions to ask because I’m so lost. And I think mostly, I’m scared what others might think of me when I ask stupid questions.

NOT asking for help when you need it…is a sign of pride. Asking for help is a sign of maturity, of humility.

So here I am.  I need help.  I can’t do it on my own.  

Awakening

by Mae

When I close my eyes to this paradox place
I’ll fly away, far away from here
I’ll get away and dream, dream of you

When it’s all said and done
And the night has come
I’ll disappear, take flight on the wind of wishing you were here
Fading light, like a star whose life has been gone for years

And I’ll fly, fly across the sky
And I’ll leave, I’ll leave it all behind
If you’ll be here, here with me tonight
I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine
I’ll be fine

One step at a time…in the right direction.

When I don’t believe I can, I remember that *You* can.
