Anyways i simply decided to post a random post about my time in SLC as i come to think about things that happened and stuff like that. I believe for all the old birds, there will come a time in life whereby you will suddenly remember that, " hey i was in council before and i did a lot of crazy stuff " and seeing my juniors take over..hmm the good ol' days, good ol' days indeed.
And then you will think about some injustice you've suffered and all the nonsense you do (which sometimes in vain indeed) and you begin thinking " why did i even allow myself to go through all this". But trust me; one day when you begin to sit down and think, actually it is all worth it.
It's like taking care of a family. generations come and go, people join the family and leave, becoming different people. No doubt some will go haywire and do stupid things, but no one can deny that we indeed learnt many things beyond what the classroom has to offer. The seniors guide you, you guide the juniors, the cycle goes on and on.
I am not saying all this just because i used to head the council, but perhaps just as an "old man talking about his old days". If such camaradarie can exist throughout this 19 years of council, i believe that the juniors can make the council stronger and even bonded in the 20th year.
Just a old bird talking about his old-birdie days. Just as that.

Your motives unstable you're like an unwinding cable car Listening for voices, but it's the choices that make us who we are Go your own way, even seasons have changed just burn those new leaves over So self-absorbed you've seemed to ignore the prayers that have already come about This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your arms Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words I'll lead you in La lalalala, la la la, la lala, laLa lalalala, la la la, la lala, la Backing away from the problem of pain you never had a home You've been misguided, you're hiding in shadows for so very long Don't you believe that you've been deceived? that you're no better than... The hair in your eyes, it never disguised what you're really thinking of This is the correlation of salvation and love Don't drop your armsDon't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words I'll lead you in This is the correlation of salvation and love(Don't drop your arms) Don't drop your arms, I'll guard your heart With quiet words I'll lead you in You're so brilliant, don't soon forget You're so brilliant, grace marks your heart You're so brilliant, don't soon forget You're so brilliant, grace marks your heart You're so brilliant (This is the correlation) Don't soon forget (Between salvation and love, don't drop your arms) You're so brilliant (I'll guard your heart) Grace marked your heart (With quiet words I'll lead you in and out of the dark)
Dennis told me that too much of Anberlin gets kind of depressing because of the things they sing about, but well, i can identify a lot with their music and more importantly, how i feel towards this world. Today even in jam everyone was singing this song and i decided to really reflect on this song and true enough, this song carries a lot of truth.
Maybe it is just me that always carries a morbid spirit but i guess i've been hiding things all along, deceiving myself and all. That is why more recently (ok not that recent) I've been listening to more heavy genres. The things that these bands want to express are relevant and are able to identify with many youths. Like Ezra said, people who listen to metal are more often than not, frustrated souls and i agree. Christian metal is fortunately a window for many of us to vent our emotions. Well no worries, anberlin is Post-hardcore hahas.
And if you read their lyrics, it is probably how i am feeling and thinking. (which makes me think of studying)
Today's jam was great, the sec 4s all came to honour God and serve and jam even in this period. Thank God and we did really well :) But we got chased off because sec 4s are supposed to study. Nevertheless thank God for jams :)
Anberlin FTW. i am gonna buy their album with Dennis at HMV (i hope)
Once again i shouldn't be posting, but well i guess i have felt.
