Today i took part in the SIM rockclimbing competition
in both team and individual categories
Cuts and scratches on my arms, i eagerly await the results.
Team UB stands proudly in first place awaiting
a worthy or just plain lucky adversary to steal our title.
On the other hand, individually, i currently place 3rd.
Where we stand amongst the ranks, only tomorrow will tell.

Picked up a book of prayers at a book sale in school last week.
The beautiful little prayers within resemble poetry.

Let us pray for wisdom. Let us pause from
thinking and empty our mind. Let us stop the
noise. In the silence let us listen to our heart. The
heart which grows buried alive. Let us be still and
wait and listen carefully. A sound from the deep,
from below. A faint cry. A weak tapping. Distant
muffled feelings from within. The cry for help.

We shall rescue the entombed heart. We shall
bring it to the surface, to the light and the air. Nurse
it and listen to its story. The heart's story of pain and
suffocation, of darkness and yearning. We shall help our
feelings to live in the sun. Together again we shall find
relief and joy




I'm not the prayerful sort but i know and appreciate
beautiful writing when i see it. Touch us, move us,
take us away.

Thailand with the boys

wow.. where do i begin... Along the trip there are these certain shining moments that you stop and attempt to put into words, and you fumble and grasp at straws and yet the words just never do the experience justice. Looking at that perfect sunset, we saw the amber sun sink into the blue waves along the horizon, with an array of purples, oranges and yellows littering the backdrop as we walked along the beach to find a dinner spot for sustenance. Our night of crazy partying which though somewhat strange, still ended up with everyone having a good time. Cruising on our motorbikes along roads that encapsulate the island, talking in the views whilst maintaining enough acceleration to keep ourselves thrilled. Swimming in the waterfalls, late nights playing drinking games out on the patio, bargaining with store owners in the congested alleys of the weekend market.

There were definite ups and downs of the trip, it wasn't perfect, but which trip ever is..
Regardless, the photos we have are a reminder of the bond we have and the moments we shared.

Okay.. now that i'm done with all that... the photos will be on Face book.. and school starts in like.. 3 days.. oooh crap.. OH and bye the bye, Guess who got straight A's this sem??
Hint.. his name sounds like *Bandrew*
