Last chance at teen rebellion

I would like to announce that I will be officially postponing my birthday. Not any birthday celebrations which I may or may not decide to have, but my actual birthday. I demand that I remain 19 until further notice. I don't care if it's not allowed.

A day of the unexpected

So I was walking from Eastern Ave to Bosch for my next lecture which was still about 45 min away this afternoon, strolling along down Physics Road; I look to my right at what's happening down on the rectangular field of grass known as The Square, and what should I see but a bunch of people in dark blue uniforms playing a game of soccer - hey, those uniforms look really familiar...it was Nerds FC! Or half of them anyway, there were about seven people in blue, and some other non-Nerds people playing with them. So I go down to investigate further...one of them definitely looks like Tim, I wonder if Angi's around...and lo and behold, I find Angi sitting near the side watching them. So yay! So I went and said hi to Angi, and the guys were just about finished their game and went to get their stuff from the side as well. It is rather weird seeing people you've seen on TV up close. There was the captain guy, and the guy who thought that they shouldn't have a captain, and the guy with the beer gut. Yeah, I'm very descriptive, I know.

I asked Angi if they still got together on a regular basis to play soccer, and apparently this was the first time they've played since the end of the series, the reason for this meeting was because Honi Soit is doing an article on them or something. Anyway, after a while they all left, and Angi and Tim went to get food, I went with them for a while before leaving to go to my lecture.

So yeah, that was rather unexpected. In a good way though.

On a completely unrelated note, I think I've had an epiphany this week, regarding my life and existence. It probably wouldn't be an epiphany for anyone else, but I feel that I've come to some sort of breakthrough in my thinking. Although the last time I had an epiphany, it didn't last for long and I kinda went back to where I was before. Hopefully it won't be like that again this time.

People are complex.

That is all.

Incoherent jumble of thoughts? (in B major)

Where are all the lonely people?
Are they quietly lost for words?
Did they drown in the music
That fills their lonely world?

Where are all the lonely people?
Are they hiding behind smiles?
Maybe they're just asleep beneath
Their daydreams for a while

Were you lonely as you faced your Father's will?
In the garden, in that darkness,
On the road towards that hill
Where you died


Did you see all the lonely people
As you hung up on the cross?
Did you feel the guilt on you
As you bore what belonged to us?

More than lonely
As He turned His face away
But you only
Could have done what you did that day
You died


Why am I still lonely?
I know you rose again
How long will I be waiting
For this loneliness to end?

Come and fill me
With Your Spirit and Your Word
So I can come before You
And know that I am heard...
And not alone
