To Know That You're Alive

...to another world

So. I'm off to England for a month. Going to be studying abroad in Nottinghamshire. I'm taking a a British lit class and English history class. Yes, they do count for my major(s). While I'm there, I get to see Paris for a weekend and London and a few other sites. Should be fun. And I'm using this month to think a lot about life and why I keep failing at it. Stupid life. Life and me aren't getting along so well lately. But I have hope.  And I ended up getting thousands more on a scholarship that I had forgotten about. That is happy, right there. Since the trip isn't nearly putting me in the hole I thought it was. A few of you know, I'm an amateur photographer. So I'll be taking obnoxiously ridiculous amounts of pictures. I might post a few. Be praying for me, if you can, please? I'll have internet in my dorm and such..... and the address I'll be at is on my Facebook. I went through my first and hopefully only heartbreak this year, and things haven't been very up since then. Drama bites. But God is good and obviously His plans work above my futile attempts at trying to do anything without Him. And I've grown. And failed. But mostly grown.

Anyways... I love you, friends. Check my Facebook for my most recent news.

into the wild...

So, pretty heavy few weeks. Really had a lot come crashing down. But all in a good way, really. I'm still such a child and naive as I was at 14. Time to grow up.

There's this stupid thing that says when words fail, music speaks? Well, since I'm kind of a music buff, it works. This song reminds me of exactly my life right now. It shouldn't. But it does. And God help me.

"I'm Still Here"

I am a question to the world,
Not an answer to be heard.
All a moment that's held in your arms.
And what do you think you'd ever say?
I won't listen anyway…
You don't know me,
And I’ll never be what you want me to be.

And what do you think you'd understand?
I'm a boy, no, I'm a man..
You can take me and throw me away.
And how can you learn what's never shown?
Yeah, you stand here on your own.
They don't know me 'cause I'm not here.

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don't feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change,
They’re the ones that stay the same.
The don’t know me,
'Cause I’m not here.

And you see the things they never see
All you wanted, I could be
Now you know me, and I'm not afraid
And I wanna tell you who I am
Can you help me be a man?
They can't break me
As long as I know who I am

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don't feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can the world want me to change,
They’re the ones that stay the same.
They can’t see me,
But I’m still here.

They can’t tell me who to be,
‘Cause I’m not what they see.
And the world is still sleepin’,
While I keep on dreamin’ for me.
And their words are just whispers
And lies that I’ll never believe.

And I want a moment to be real,
Wanna touch things I don't feel,
Wanna hold on and feel I belong.
And how can they say I never change
They’re the ones that stay the same.
I’m the one now,
‘Cause I’m still here.

I’m the one,
‘Cause I’m still here.
I’m still here.
I’m still here.
I’m still here.

Spring break lasted a whole week. That was an incredible waste of time, actually.

I don't think I've updated y'all for quite awhile on my own life. Right now, I'm waiting to hear back to see if I got the scholarship to study in England for a month this summer. If I get it, that will be really exciting. Other than that... I'm just waiting for life to start. Psh, darn life.

Broken, but everything lasts in Grace
Shattered in two, held together by a thread
Locked away but running, always escaping back to You

Quickly now, without a thought move into place
Every wish you make, is nothing but a dying breath
Back right where I started from, lets start over
Just let me start over

I’m begging you
Start us over

Waiting on cues, taking what comes
Only to find out that’s not what you meant at all
Faith got us here; Grace can take us all the way

Quickly now, without a thought move into place
Every wish you make, is nothing but a dying breath
Back right where I started from, let’s start over
Just let me start over

I’m begging you
Start us over

Looking back through time, taking pieces at a glace
I’m breaking this silence, I close my eyes to see
Remembering the time I told you the way that I felt

Is it supposed to be like this?
You’re my reason
I pray I’m yours

Don’t say it now, just hold onto our memory
There you are, making all right all over again
Truth is breaking, this time forever

I’m begging you
Start us over


Remembering all we used to be, trying to find the sadness behind your eyes

Giving all I’ve got to give, just trying to keep this alive

God knows every little piece, every little hurt, every little joy.

 

When we said it, when it all came out, when our very lives where hanging

Did I say it all? Did I give all there was to give?

Father of Light, hear us now. Hear me now. I ask for only one small answer.

 

Things left unsaid, questions without answers, hopes suspended for all to see

Hopeless fleeting emotion, dying for just a little more

Keeping check and trying to keep sanity for just another few moments in time.

 

Like a vintage photograph, shot, caught, carried, shared and stored away

Say it sooner, say it now, say we are almost and nearly there

Take a look around and see the sun-splashed life we’ve created.

 

Entwined in reality, bound by seconds, the black and white is never just that

In one fatal cut, the hope is lost in the quiet

Beautiful colours being burned through my soul by nothing but a glace.

 

I only hear what’s said because I’m only weathering one single storm

It only takes one little word to take it all away

If you want to fly, just hold onto my hand and take me back to you.

 

Back to a place I know so well, back to a feeling I’ve never felt before

Joyful expressions, thoughtful glances, meaningful touches

The clock ticks on, leaving the past just one second behind the future.

 

Dancing through the stars, playing symphonies on your heart, rain falling

Watch the lighting waltzing with the thunder, taking steps

Her motion, his leading touch pushing them both until the last second falls

 

I need to be able to smell the aroma after this storm, to see the flowers

To walk to moist earth of your rain

Soaking up every drop of this, we can’t destroy what we didn’t create.
