I scream and cry at the sight of all this evil,
Like an infant screams as it enters this cold world.
Where has your faith gone?
This generation has become one of the living dead;
Their bodies are alive yet they are dead.
They've fallen so deep into artificial love,
That they've begun to hate themselves,
This generation has become one of robots.
Look at the rose, there's nothing that can enhance its beauty.
Look at you with your make-up off, there's nothing ugly,
Why won't you believe me?
Beauty is not outward it's inward, is your heart beautiful?
If you think skin, blood, and bones are all there is,
Well you couldn't be more wrong.
When I say "your heart" I'm not talking about a valentine,
Nor one that pumps out blood,
But the one that is the home of what you love most.
Don;t settle for anything less than a palace,
And there's only one that makes your heart a palace,
I'm sure you've guessed it by now, the name is Jesus.
The one that makes you beautiful.
Leave this artificial beauty and love behind,
Leave it behind.
ORIGINAL SONG BY: JACOB BLANKENSHIP

I am the Master Chief!
Heyo!!! Wow, it's been a long time since I have posted anything on here. So I figured today would be a good day.
Two weeks ago I went back to Decatur, Illinois to visit my family and friends. I had an amazing time and I will leave it at that. This week I am hoping to get everyone in the band together so we can practice. We finally have a full line up that everyone is happy with so we will be starting very soon. The band is called Within These Whispers and you can find us on myspace. Our myspace page is not really "awesome" yet since we don't have any pics of the band yet nor any album covers but we will be making the site awesome soon as well.
I so badly want to see Toy Story 3 in Imax 3D, I heard it was the bomb-diggity so now I must see it as well as The Karate Kid just to see if it is any good.
My dad is outside working on the yard in the o so hot sun beating down on his shirt covered back. I am inside writing this blog in the nice cool air-conditioned house of mine. I am very happy.
Today Tyler will be coming over to hang out for a little while (but not on ropes) then we are gonna go to the mall and then mini golfing then off to Micah's house for some Wii and snacks! Fun filled day? I think YES! To the infinite degree! Possibly, something terrible could happen like a zombie uprising where all they want is our cheese but we have been blinded by so many zombie movies about them wanting our brains that we just kill them all off and have a whole bunch of dead zombie bodies all over the place. It could happen.
Mac and cheese is on the menu for lunch today I guess and I am pretty hungry.
Last night I viewed the movie The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus, I liked the movie I thought it was my kind of movie it kept me interested the entire time, though there is some language it was still a very well directed movie with a lot of famous actors including Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, and Jude Law.
God Bless ya'll!

I Want To Be A Journalist
(SIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH) I wrote a song last night, my 132 song. It is called "Cold Nights and Warm Fires" I will post it on here soon if I remember. It is very VERY dark but in a good way lol. Like if you were to see a movie about it, you would be scared, but in the end you would be sorta happy. It's too hard to explain.
I did zilch for Memorial Day weekend except on Memorial Day I went to my friend Tyler's house and just hung out with him pretty much doing nothing. July 10th is the bike race date, the race is 100 kilo and last year I didn't train at all for it and by the time I reached the finish line, my legs were about to fall off. This year I am training for it, biking about 8 miles a day so it's all good. I can bike 8 miles in about 30 minutes now.
Last night I watched John Q., that movie is really good! However the downside is that it had 2 "F" bombs and alot of cussing. The story line of the movie is really good though. It's a movie that I think everyone should watch (but not when they are like 10 years old haha!).
Okay, so as you may have read the title to this blog (haha! I still love saying that word) I have been asking God what He wants me to do with my life like what kind of career I should go in to. A few months ago I had said that I wanted to be a journalist since there aren;t too many Christian ones out there. That notion kind of died away and I forgot about it. Last night, however, it had come back into my mind. Now, I am not for sure that is what God wants me to do so I will keep praying about it, but look out! because I could be the next journalist to hit the streets! I also love to write so that is a big ol' positive to becoming a journalist.
Oh and I have an interest in someone now, but I shall hold back my feelings until they grow more....that is, IF they do.
GOD BLESS!

Goodmorning to all and to all a....
Goodmorning sunshine, the earth says hello!-Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Alice in Wonderland is coming out in just a few days and I am sooo excited! I saw that movie in theatres the day it came out and it was mother flippin' epic!
I now have a new favorite band: The Devil Wears Pradahttp://www.tdwpband.com/. Assistant to the Regional Manager is one of my favorite songs from them.
I am going back to my home town June 11th and may be bringing a friend :D which would be saweet. I am totally still loving this amazing weather, thankyou God! So again I must quote the band Alesana from the song "Seduction" "Sunlight warms my face, only in drems of you..." Speaking of dreams, I had a weird one last night. It started with my friend Lexi and I on a two person bike and we were going down these amazingly steep hills (it was epic). Then at the bottom of the next t olast hill was this epic ramp and we hit it, all of a sudden we were in slow motion while in mid-air. The Devil Wears Prada started to play and I was singing it in mid-freakin'-air! TIGHT!!! Then I saw a chic on a unicycle like right next to us and she was singing the song too. We finally hit the ground and went back to the real world: with one last hill to go. So we bombed that hill and came to a stop, then we got off the bike and just walked on. It was an waesome dream, a weird one at that.
Peace to the out ya'll.

Send me sunshine!
Heyo! So, alot has gone on in the past weeks that I haven't blogged...haha that is just a fun word to say, blogged lol...I had a friend stay the night about 2 weeks ago and we had alot of fun, we played outside, played video games, watched a movie and did other things that I can't remember. Wait! If I can't remember the other things that we did, then how do I know that we did other things of which I can't remember? So on and so on. Yesterday I watched Superhero Movieand let me tell ya something, that movie is super funny! You just have to wacth it.
My Zune broke, so now I am going to get an iPod touch and be much happier with that because it rocks! My dad and I built a skate box for me, complete with a grinding edge and an 8 foot long span of wood to trick on then manual the whole thing (which I have already done :D). It is pretty mother flippin' awesome! I went to 2 new skateparks this past week both have now become my top 2 favorite parks that I have ever been to, except for the Skatepark of Tampa that one remains my absolute favorite. I am loving this sunshine and warmth! Can I get a woot woot!? ♫♪ Sunlight warms my face only in dreams of you... ♪♫ That line of the song "Seduction" from the band Alesana keeps going through my head all day today and I am okay with that.
Lexi, if you are reading this, have a great day!!!
