Hey everyone.  Sorry for the lack of penning my thoughts digitally.  My Moleskine is unfortunately receiving more love than this one.

Anyways.  There’s a lot to catch up on, like:

• iPhone 3G (less than spectacular)
• my bike trip from Southeast Vancouver to Kitsilano Beach (photo blog coming up)
• the Vancouver leg of Passion World Tour ‘08 (reserve your tickets now)
• and more (I need to check my Moleskine)

But I’ll save that for another blog.

Here’s some of the best I’ve stumbled upon youtubing.

I have a crush on Kina Grannis.  Her delicate strumming and entrancing voice makes me feel like jell-o, grape jell-o.

A whole bunch of us got to see Starfield do one of their two “re-dos” in Abbotsford.  Oh goodness me, it was an epic time.  It seemed that there was a slight darkness still looming about that came from the accident a month and a half ago, but going there, I could tell that a lot of healing and progress had been made from then.

The night moreover provided a sense of closure and commission.  There were testimonies in the thick of it and it further solidified the fact that God was present in the middle of the insanity and that He never left us.

The night continued with an infectious fervor and compelling intensity.  Tim, Jon, Gordie and Dave gave way for the grace of God to enter the place and show that we won’t be backing down and that we have won the war against the powers that so easily bind us to something less than we’re supposed to be.  One thing’s for sure from that night that the chains of sin and accusation were broken and the Spirit of the living God was jumping, singing and proclaiming freedom.

In short, it was a great time that I had being in the church of God worshipping and sharing in the experience that is God Almighty.

God is good, all the time.

I’m pages away from the end but I think I have enough to make this review–and besides, I feel a need to exercise my brain muscle because it’s in a state of demi-atrophy.

I picked up This Is Your Brain On Music: The Science of A Human Obsession because I love music.  Actually, I don’t think it’s the music so much that I love, I love what comes as a result of music.  Music is a means to an end.  Music is important because it’s often that it isn’t so much the end that defines the trip, but the route through which you get there.
