good week:
1. short school week
2. college acceptances: rensselaer, rochester, wpi
3. scholarships: rensselaer- $17,500/year for 5 years, rochester- $6,000/year, wpi- at least $14,500/year :)
4. have hajian for my christian service interview
5. got a journal from mr. o ^_^
6. candy... 2 for a $1... oh the simple things in life. sugar is my love and anti-depressant. =P
i'm happy.
only one more week of christian service. hope i don't get reilly for peer ministry next quarter. that would suck. still waiting to hear from 5 colleges, but i think i'll find out next week. praying for a nice big envelope from columbia, but that's just some far-fetched dream. :/
well it's almost easter. i think hvoc is playing this easter sunday. i'm glad it isn't combined service. i hate playing in the sanctuary in front of uber-conservative chinese adults who would prefer worship without drums and bass, and i'm sure even acoustic guitar. -_-
and speaking of hvoc, i hope we get to play the song "everything" by lifehouse someday before half of us leave. and speaking of lifehouse, they have a new cd out even though the band broke up. that's nice.
and since it's almost easter, here's some lyrics from a christian emo band... further seems forever. you should listen to them. they're awesome.
the sound
if i only had an ocean to compliment the sky
i’d pull it down and paint it for you and i’d never question why
cause “red would mean you loved me” and “blue would mean you cared”
but black my heart when left alone to cold and killing stares
this is the burning of a dream
the sound now turns to silence but i'll keep spinning around
naked in the rain of my own tears
as they fall into the bucket of your apologies
while closing everyone else’s eyes because your own are shut
not to see the volume rise again
feels like i’m waiting in the last hiding place on earth
haman's noose tight round my neck
but i’m saved and for 100,000 memories
been washed ashore to be swept again by forever
and sailed away from you now that the rain has ended
so the sun can shine through me
the sound now turns to silence but i'll keep spinning around
naked in the rain of my own tears
as they fall into the bucket of your apologies
while closing everyone else’s eyes because your own are shut
not to see the volume rise again
only you could row my boat ashore
if only you could set my fears at rest
but until lack of sympathies regress
i’m still waiting, i’m still waiting
for your call
the sound now turns to silence but i'll keep spinning around
naked in the rain of my own tears
as they fall into the bucket of your apologies
while closing everyone else’s eyes because your own are shut
not to see the volume rise again
have a good good friday.
