Good Song?

October 19, 2009

Here’s just a little interesting thought that came into my head the other day (10/15). I was in second hour taking a test and this person sitting next to me started to sing a song. Of course it was a worldly song, but needless to say I had to bear the fact he was singing a song (and he wasn’t the great of a singer). But then someone sitting next to him chimed in and said, “I was singing that song yesterday and I got a headache, but it’s a good song!” The person that was singing it agreed that it was a good song. I hadn’t heard the song before, so I couldn’t agree or disagree. That then caused me to think, “what makes a song good?”

My mind started to then go over songs that I’ve listened to that I personally thought was good. One of those songs is Toby Mac’s newest single called “City on Our Knees.” It’s one of my favorite songs that he has made. Why do I consider it a good song? Because if you listen to the words and the message in the song, it has an awesome meaning behind it. Also, I like the face that it doesn’t sound like a Toby Mac song at all! Listen to it here and tell me what you think:

Another song that I think is a great song is Jeremy Camp’s song “There Will Be A Day”. I love that song because it has great meaning about how there will be a day where there is no tears, no more burdens, and there will be joy forever more! I love it because it reminds me of what to expect when we get to heaven.

One of the most meaningful songs of this age is “More Beautiful You” by Jonny Diaz! This song means so much because the song writer has recognized the fact that much of young ladies of today are influenced by the horribly skinny “models” of today. They put make-up on, starve themselves, and do anything they can to get unhealthy skinny. This song tells the young lady in the song that she’s very beautiful just the way that she is. That she could never be more beautiful than what she is, without any make-up or anything. I consider this a very good song, especially for all the Apostolic young ladies.

So what do you consider a good song? And how do you consider it that? Do you classify it by the meaning behind the words or the music and instruments? Let me know what you think of the songs I’ve posted. And let me know what songs you think are good!

2012?

October 8, 2009

I was sitting in Earth Science last week trying to do the work we were assigned to do, but I just couldn’t get into it. So, I put my head down on my desk and tried to fall asleep, but the people sitting close by were talking and their conversation caught my attention. They were talking about how they want to live their life, but yet they "knew" the world would end in 2012. They were joking about it saying that they would build an ark like Noah did because the earth is going to be flooded. They also were saying how they would be of legal age for three months to drink, so they were going to drink like crazy. In this article I want to prove that earth being flooded is wrong and how i doubt the earth would be totally destroyed.

Please watch this YouTube video of a trailer of a move that is coming out about 2012 and "what’s going to happen":

[YouTube link]

As you saw in that video, they predict that the whole earth is going to be flooded because an astroid or "Plant X" is going to swing by out planet and mess up the magnetic poles. Which in turn will make earthquakes, huge tsunamis, and the earth to go crazy and flood the entire earth.

I don’t and won’t claim to know the Bible good or barely at all compared to people that I know. But I have read the whole book of Revelation and I do know what God promised Noah and the human race after God flooded the whole earth for the first and last time. In Genesis 9:14-16 it says, "14For I will at this time send all my plagues upon thine heart, and upon thy servants, and upon thy people; that thou mayest know that there is none like me in all the earth. 15For now I will stretch out my hand, that I may smite thee and thy people with pestilence; and thou shalt be cut off from the earth. 16And in very deed for this cause have I raised thee up, for to shew in thee my power; and that my name may be declared throughout all the earth."

From that scripture, God has promised the human race that He would never flood the whole earth again. I personally know that God keeps His promises and doesn’t not keep them. We can see His promise that he made to Noah to this day by the "bow" He set in the sky, we see it when it rains. His promise to us can be seen by the beautiful rainbow in the sky.

I personally believe that the 2012 isn’t going to happen, but it really makes me wonder if it’s related to any judgments that were prophesied in the book of Revelation. In Revelation 6:12-17 it says, "12And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; 13And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. 14And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places. 15And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; 16And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: 17For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?" In verse 12 it says, "…the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;". Please do NOT take me by my word, but I think that 2012 "ending of the Earth" could very well be the opening of that seal, but that’s only if the rapture has taken place and the church is out of here. Which means that if it actually is (which I have no idea, these are just my thoughts) one of the opening of the seals, then the rapture will have to take place here some time VERY soon or else the time frame won’t work out right. I also don’t think anything will happen if the church isn’t out of here, because then that give credit to the world and those that had originally "prophesied" it.

So that leaves me with this question, what do you think about this 2012 theory and how it relates to the Bible? Some believe in it (2012) with their whole hear (like the two girls in my science class), while other laugh at it. Will it really happen or is it just a joke and hype for someone to get rich?

To Be Blogged

September 28, 2009

I didn’t go through with my promise that I had in my previous blog post did I? No, I didn’t and I’m really sorry. I’ve honestly been busy with school and church… Last week I had a ton of homework each night, and tonight I’m even luck to be able to post this entry without getting yelled at that it’s time to get to bed. Tonight I had two hours of homework in Marketing class alone, and I have some other classes of homework, but honestly my brain is done for today. I can’t really think straight enough to post a good blog post.

I have a promise for you all that I think I will keep. Today while sitting in Earth Science I overheard some people talking about different things and what they were talking about caught my attention big time! All I will say is that what they were talking about could possibly (if only i could emphasize that word more) effect the whole world. I promise to post this blog entry when I get done writing it. And for those of you wondering, yes I do actually write down the majority of my recent blog post on paper since I get a good amount of my ideas away from home (like at church or at school [majority at school]). I hope to have it done and completely wrote by Wednesday night or Thursday night. That IS a promise! :)

Another blog post that I might post, without writing it on paper, is about Friday since it’s going to be a awesome day! So, that’s two promises in one blog post. Do you think I can keep one or both of them? Yes, no, or maybe? You tell me…

God Bless,
Bradley

P.S.: Today is @mae_chica’s birthday!!!

Week Review and Saturday 9/19/09

September 18, 2009

In my last blog post I told you that I would post again before the weekend and tell you what was going to happen. Well, here it is and I’m really surprised that I actually did what I said I was going to do! Lol

This week has been an interesting one all things considered. Monday at school my P.E. teacher wouldn’t accept the letter that my mom wrote to excuse me from working out since my hands weren’t healed yet. He told me that I had to have a doctors note to fully excuse me from working out. This then caused me to have to go to see a doctor, so that Monday night I did go. CIMG0209The doctor said that I bruised my bone and that my wound(s) were infected. She gave me some medication to take to get rid of my infection and then wrote a note to excuse me from working out until the CIMG020621st. Tuesday another day of school and long one at that, posted a blog post, and then that night I went to puppet practice and meet up with my friend. Yeah that’s him pictured to the left, me and him are really good buddies, we’ve done I think too puppet shows together and we’re really good together! Ha-ha. Wednesday night was a another day of school, but it kind of went pretty fast which felt good. That night I got surprised because there was a visiting preacher, Elder Eldon Eckles. His preaching was AWESOME, but he had a young apostolic lady with him. I was wondering who she was because honestly she was pretty good looking. So, service went on and Pastor Chalfant introduced the preacher and then said that it was Elder Eldon Eckles’ grand daughter. Knowing me, I haven’t got the guts to talk to her because I’m too shy when it comes to talking to girls and meeting new Apostolic people in person… I’m determined to do it though! (I’ll tell you my plan here shortly.) Thursday was a pretty good day because it went by pretty fast, and I learned that I will be paid $600 for working 60 hours, working for USD469 doing technical work and things related to that. Also, Thursday night I worked on converting a website layout and designCIMG0124 that I had done a while back into a Joomla! template, I got a good amount done, just got a whole bunch more to do. Friday (today) wasn’t the best for the first half of the day, but after school things got a ton better! Got home and worked on the Joomla! template some more (fixed some bugs here and there), then left for prayer meeting. After prayer meeting was over I stayed to practice a song for the youth service that is coming up the 23rd at Truth Tabernacle. As we was practicing, they asked me if I could lead song service. What could I say, besides yes? So, I’m leading youth service song service on Wednesday night. That’s been this week. What about this weekend and my plan of me trying to talk to Elder Eckles’ grand daughter?

My answer is as follows. Tomorrow there is a Youth Rally at New Life in Olathe, KS. I’m excited because it’s the first one in a long time and I’m ready to be in a service with other young people that is directed to young people. I’ll try to post some pictures of it if I take any… As for my plan to talk to Elder Eckles’ CIMG0213grand daughter, I’m planning on getting or making myself talk to her tomorrow since they are going (my dad asked Elder Eckles). If any of you read this and are going tomorrow, want to maybe help me out or give me any pointers? Ha-ha

That’s it, except the picture to the right is the starting of what I hope is my second to next blog post. And if you’re wondering, yes I do actually write down some of blog post because I get ideas at school and can’t really type them up on a computer or on my phone. If you click on the picture you might be able to read what my title might be, in case you can’t I plan to title it “Me, Myself, and You?”. Thanks for taking the time out of YOUR day to read my blog!!!

God Bless,
Bradley Hilton

New “Gadget”

June 26, 2009

This time I’m really sorry for all you people that read my blog for not updating it for a long time. I don’t really have a good enough excuse to put up except that I have just been putting it off and off and off. Well, I finally decided to post a new entry because I got a really cool gadget in the mail today that I ordered a while back. I bough this item off of Ebay.com on June 11th and I just now got it in the mail (today is the 26th). I’m sure that if it was you that ordered it and then it didn’t arrive until now you would be like I am, ant’s in your pants and the like… Ask anyone that lives in my house (my dad and my mom :p) about how I was acting and how I was only talking about if I didn’t get it by July 2nd then I was going to get a hold of the person and get my money back! Ha-ha

I’ve got good news now! It FINALLY arrived in the mail today!!! :D – Don’t get too excited for me now, cause that would be just a little bit weird. So I’ve decided to make this blog entry mostly about me opening the package and then charging it and then me wearing it… Here it goes:

Hong Kong!

Like I told you earlier in this post I ordered this off of Ebay.com because it was cheaper then any of the other sites that I could have went through. I didn’t notice until it was to late that this was being shipped from Hong Kong, China! (As you can hopefully see in the picture to the left. <—– ) This is the reason why I didn’t receive it until two weeks after i had ordered it. Here’s another picture of the back of it that says the postage people in China have the free will to look through the package!

"customs"

(This kind of scared me when I first saw it.) I’m now glad that we live in the United States of America! Even though our rights are getting taken away slowly but surely… Another subject for maybe not another time. If you click on any of these pictures they are HUGE, so you can click on them just like they are or you can right click and open in a new tab or open in a new window to see them better.

Package ontents

After I had looked at the back (and took a picture of it —–>) I opened the package and this is what was inside ( <—- ). I then threw the brown (actually looks green in real life) aside and opened the bubble wrap packing. Inside of that is what I wanted and have been waiting for, for what seems like forever! But it was inside a zip lock baggy, so I opened this and there it was! My new Motorola S9 Bluetooth Stereo Headset has finally arrived! Here’s some pictures of it out of the package and charging.

IMGP0156 IMGP0157IMGP0158

Well that’s it for right now, except to tell everyone that in ONE week I’m leaving for PA!!! Going to be gone for a week and half to just hang out and then the rest of the second week I’m going to a Akron Youth Conference in Ohio! Going to be fun and a blast and relaxing… Until next time,

God Bless,
Bradley Hilton

P.S: I don’t look half way decent right now so that’s why there isn’t any pictures of me wearing this. I hope you all understand! I plan on making a new blog post (entry) whenever I get the chance to look half way decent and get the chance to take pictures. Thanks for understanding and be looking for the new post!

Linux Mint

June 2, 2009

Thanks for visiting my blog, even though I don’t update very much like I used to on my old blog. So here’s a quick update that I decided to do while waiting for Aaron Ogle to arrive over here at my house so we could do some things with wireless Internet and my church.

Anyone reading this might not be familiar with any other operating systems (OS) besides Windows and Mac OS. Well, there are many of different operating systems for computers that are based off of Linux, yet they are all different in ways. The majority of Linux based operating systems are free! Including the one that I’m using right now called “Linux Mint 7“. This is an awesome version of Linux and I’m loving it! Not only because it’s all free, but because it has some awesome Eye Candy that other versions of Linux I’ve tried don’t have. Another major thing that cause me to use Linux Mint is the fact that it actually supported my wireless Internet card! Here’s a screenshot of what I mean by Eye Candy:

Changing desktops

Changing desktops

You see Linux operating systems have the ability of having multiple desktops. This comes in handy when you are doing a project (coding), talking to people online, uploading files to a server, and doing something else. Because you can then place all of those things in their own desktop and then you just switch to them whenever you need to. In this screenshot I was changing desktops, and just thought that this was a pretty cool feature! Ha-ha – There are other Eye Candies that you can’t really capture by screenshot, so I’ll have to figure out somehow to take a video of my screen and then post another update!

Well, I’m off for now. So, later everyone and thanks again for reading!

God Bless,

File I Found

May 17, 2009

I was going through the files that I have on a computer and found this really old file from the end of last year. It’s kind of funny the audio because it just ends and has nothing that leads up to the ending… Poorly made, but it was our first attempt to try and make an audio file! Haha

Here’s it for you to listen to, and once you listen to it post a comment telling me what you thought of it! Lol

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

That’s it for right now. Later on I’ll try and post again and some of the things that have been going on in my life, but right now I’ve got to do some homework.  So later everyone!
