4. What is your favorite color?
5. What is your favorite movie?
6. What is your favorite drink?

Idea stolen from the lovely Ms Bazzy (www.jabazzy.blogspot.com) and she stole it from JohnnyDurham19.


And this is what came to pass... so how do you summarize a life 4x3? It got me thinking. Life actually gets more complicated the older we get, due to the things we know and experience. You think that life might get easier, but you're wrong.

It's like knowledge... the more you know, the less you're qualified to give simple answers, because there ARE no simple answers. Not to anything. And the more you know, the more you're aware of this fact.

I digress. This is the last day of BEDA and I'm a little bit sad to see it go and a lot relieved to see it go. I love blogging, but if I'm able to skip a day or two, I'll be a happier chap (and blogger). Blogging puts things in perspective and opens up your view for all the other things in the world that you wouldn't know about. By reading blogs, you can delve into the lives of many different people and be them for a couple of minutes. You read about relationships, about festivals, anxieties, about mean parents and great friends, about trips and schools, exams and plays. It's like reading a book, but you know that these people and occurrences are real. I read about all these things in the last month and I got to know some new people and some old people better ;)

I love blogging and I love people who blog. It's as simple as that and I think I should conclude BEDA with this sentiment.

Lyrics:

I want to change, to rearrange
What is going on
I need to change, I need to play
Like a five year old

I can't detach from the past and all of the pain
I need to laugh, start from scratch begin again

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

So I'm going to eat one hundred sweets
I don't care if I get fat
And I'm going to speak I won't censor me
I know I can take nothing back

And I'm going to jump I will unburden
I cannot go too deep
I will not run from bad things I've done
They're things I'll try not to repeat

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day

Welcome to
The church of what's happening now
Head straight through
It costs nothing but change

Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
Throw away yesterday
Today is a brand new day
