Had a good conversation with a lad called Ben on Sunday. He got kicked out of his house so his mum could wrap his presents. Heard some stuff and wanted to come nd see why so many people had come to us before. Chances are he'll be on my college course next year. Oh and on Sunday little Sophie, a sweet five year old asked me to be her caring sister. All together now...Aww.

Today I was revising. Boring. The only word to describe it.

Yesterday I climbed a 900 odd foot mountian in a place called long mynd (I think that's how it's spelt) near Wales, I think. Not much to say, other than it was completely exhausting but fun and looked like something out of Lord Of The Rings. My friend Ille half expected to go round a corner and see Gollum/Smegol arguing with himself in the river. But I thought it looked a touch more like Rohan. But each to their own. T'was amazingly foggy and the groung was wet so it wasn't the safest walk ever. Couldn't get any pictures of it in winter or in fog, but it was very nice. There's only pictures of it in summer which doesn't look right but still.



Well that's the waterfall, in summer. Way more amazing by winter but you'll just have to take my word for it.

Now I have a quick question for you; how easy is it to understand this?

For those who want a challenge, try figuring it out and comment on what I said, if not leave it out and comment on the other stuff in this blog.

Came across a new band the other day; am I allowed to say wow?
This band is called Crimson moonlight, their from Scandinavia and were set up with the intention of recording a primitive old school black metal demo and play one show before breaking up. However, they have gone way beyond that; they've been quoted as 'the Scandnavian holocaust'.
Don't get completely freaked out by the way they've been described coz I went throught their lyrics and they are in fact incredibally deep and spiritual guys going on what I've got. Check it out:

As dawn melted my heart
I opened up my eyes
Red roses from above
Were planted inside of me
And when the never fading love
Was established in my heart
My traveling days began

I walked beside the constantly flowing
Spring of clear water
Always ready to slaked my thirst
And give me peace and strength
I ran towards the fields
Inviting me to let my tiered soul rest
How sweet they were
Those pastures of green

A smell of life filled the air
And the sun gave constant energy
To my once dead spirit
The magnificence of this paradise
Told a wonderful tale about a creation
Taking place since times immemorial
I could hear the tranquil whisper:
"Come closer to me, beloved one"
The Spirit's voiced touched
My ears with love and care

I continued the path
And stepped inside the forest
Still hearing the whisper:
"Come closer to me..."
But suddenly the beautiful trees
And days light turned
Into a landscape of thorn and fog

Soon I was lost in an unknown wilderness
And there was no end to my fright
Tears ran down my mourned face
And the pain showed no mercy
There I was, a helpless and frightened child
At last I fell down on my knees in prayer
While feeling the despair
Coming closer and closer
"Father, help me out of here", I screamed
But no answer was heard
"See my pain..." no one there
I became a lonely prisoner
Bound by chains of doubt
Nowhere could I find the meaning
Of things happening to me
At day I stood screaming, crying and praying
And at night I lay shaking in terrible helplessness

Finally, all my power was gone
And I nearly gave up it all
With my last strength I lifted
My face towards heaven and cried it out:
"Father, Thy will be done, and not mine"
Then I felt in a total less of power
Awaiting the arrival of another frozen night

If you check out the lyrics from that whole album it tells a story. That song was called the pilgrimage but if you read the lyrics for Path of pain you get the end of the 'story'.
I really suggest you check it out. and BTW; don't get ideas for playing the songs in the meeting, I don't think there's too many people who would like it. I mean, they hardly play music like we do.
