Noch eine weitere zufällige Post.

Aren't I the confusing one? I think only one of my friends will be able to read the title, without using a translator. I really like German. A lot. I got a tiny little English to German, German to English dictionary at the bookstore the other day, its very helpful, I like it a lot. Speaking of Languages, my mom has started me on Latin. I'm not so sure I like it yet, its interesting and I think today it made some sense.... Why oh why does this always happen to me? Every time I sit down to write a blog post (When I have time!) I can never ever think of something to say. I guess this shall be a very random blog post, because I have lots of random facts/information to share.

Let's start with Black Mint Gum. Yeah. Black Mint Gum. Its good, but the black part of the gum looks weird. Its just sort of weird chewing a black piece of soft mint tasting stuff. Random...

I'm currently working on two short stories for a children's magazine. I'm also edited one of my short stories I had written a few months back. One of the short stories is actually about writing. Maybe I'll post it after I get it all written. I should probably post a chapter or two of my NaNo novel. Though it isn't done yet. Its January, back to writing!

I've started a photography blog. I had one before, but I didn't like it, and it wouldn't let me post pictures because of the template. You can now find my photography blog here. I'm sorry if the template is kind of a mess, I'm working on it soon though!

Well, this isn't as long as I wanted it to be, but it will have to work for right now. I'll try and get on tomorrow and write a real blog post! Oh, by the way, do you like my new template? I still haven't gotten it all set up, but I'm working on it!

God bless!

That night was anything but silent.

The Christmas song "Silent Night" is a beautiful song. Lots of people enjoy it, and its probably some people's favourite Christmas song. I like it also. Here's the lyrics :

Silent night, holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

Silent night, holy night!
Shepherds quake at the sight
Glories stream from heaven afar
Heavenly hosts sing Alleluia!
Christ, the Saviour is born
Christ, the Saviour is born

Silent night, holy night
Son of God, love's pure light
Radiant beams from Thy holy face
With the dawn of redeeming grace
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth
Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth "

But if you think about it, that night was anything BUT silent. Now here are the lyrics for:
"That night was anything but Silent" Tell me what you think.

The heavens rang, the angels sing echoing the glad refrain.
That night was anything but silent.
Songs of hope, were everywhere.
Joyous praise filled the air, that night was anything but silent.

That night was anything but silent.
A multitude of angels sang his holy name,
he is the promised one, messiah, king of kings they all proclaimed.
That night was anything but silent.

The angels came that night to say a king of kings is born today.
That night was anything but silent.
Shepard's came to see the sight, I'm sure it was a holy night.
That night was anything but silent.

That night was anything but silent...
A multitude of angels sang his holy name,
he is the promised one, messiah, king of kings they all proclaimed.
That night was anything but silent.

That hill became a holy place where angels trod.
The Shepard's left their sheep to find the lamb of god.
The lamb of god!
That night was anything but silent!


I really like "Silent Night" its a beautiful song. And it will probably be a favourite by thousands of peoples for decades. But my favourite is "That night was anything but silent". It wasn't a silent night, it was a loud glorious night.
Gott segne und frohe Weihnachten!
