Actually, i have...uh...21 minutes (i had to do some serious math just then, and at 11:39 serious math does not compute) to update this blog on time.
Kori technically already updated it for me, but i'ma do it anyways. (this is Elizabeth, by the by)
thats a good song by the way...Believe by Martina McBride...or whatever it's called. i don't remember the exact name...and i would look it up, but then i would be tempted to listen to it, and that would defeat the whole purpose of the fasting.
SO.
i'ma just leave that bit alone.
but the fasting has gone well...i suppose...i will say that it's wierd not having listened to any music nearly for almost 48 hours...this from the girl who averages about 8 or 9 a day what with the radio or itunes up...but the silence has been good for me i think...
My dad has been trying for ages to get me to turn all my electronics and stuff off and my music and just havee silence so that i can think and stuff. and i've never really listened to him...because music has always been kind of like...a conductor to my thinking. i can think while listening, multi-tasking and what not. so i never bothered, but having silence is really bizzare...
i was sitting in my room today, and it was just pressing in on me. the silence was almost palpable...and then i started thinking i heard this ringing...but i think that is just tenitis....which is bascially when your ears are so jacked up from loud noises and what not. apparently factory workers have that a lot.
and there is some cream that can make your tenitis go away. But that is one of those "as seen on tv'' products, so it prolly doesn't even work.
but anywho, i'm just sayin' that the silence i'm beginning to finally get used to is nice...ish...i know that the point of fasting is to get closer to God and what not, and i think the whole silence thing is really ideal for hearing his voice.
ok. last bit. this song 'the alarming sound of a still small voice' by Saosin reminds me of that concept...because...sometimes gods voice is rather alarming, and it's not necissarily like "ASLKDKFAFAJF' sometimes it's more like "skasljfaslf'' but a lot smaller. and then your like "whoah!" and your alarmed.
and thats the whole concept.
but the band is actually secular...so...yeah, but i still think it's a good song, and is sort of applicable...and the first verse is retarded and really emoish, and it gets on my nerves, but the rest is still pretty good.
