This is a masterful combination of six different songs into one. I don't know where the idea originated - or if Norwegian Recycling is the name of the band or the concept - but you listen to it and can't help but go, "Dude, that totally works, and that's totally awesome." (If you happen to talk like a teenage guy, which I don't... so maybe you leave out the dude... I guess I'm on a roll with 'dude' because my roommate frequently answers the phone with 'dude'...)
Dude, this song rocks!
Creativity is inspiring. Live life with a palette of watercolors in hand and go do something creative. Just listening to this makes me want to do something artsy... make a collage, spray paint an old piece of furniture, write a song, write a blog...
Funniest moment of the day: watching several hundred members of the opposite gender congregate outside Gilmore in the Keppel House parking lot for their annual Campus Ministries Dodgeball/Four Square tournament (I think that's what they were doing??). Frankly I didn't linger long enough to visually observe what went on, but I didn't need to. I could hear it all. Why are boys so loud? And why do they have to chant, "Men, men, men, MEN!" all together fifty bazillion times? And why do they have to scream and holler every two seconds? Mysterious questions.
Perhaps the screaming/bared chests/masculine chants are the ways that guys manifest their own creativity. In that case, I need to be more appreciative of their efforts and less critical of their noise....
Best moment of the day: finding out I have a co-leader for Bible study this fall! Praise God for answering my prayers. Hmm, and running to Windmill Island with Anne in the dusky, cool hours of night. And talking to Amy. Friends are marvelous.
"If you don't know what you're doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You'll get his help, and won't be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought." James 1:5-6, The Message
Good night :-)
WHERE DID YOU FIND THE NORWEGIAN RECYCLING?? I LOVE THEM!!!! aren't they GREAT?! i miss you, Brooke! Hope all is well!
ReplyDeleteWell, if you were a man, how would you express your creativity? You would chant. I promise you. Because a man who knits purses or beads necklaces would be considered a little... different... nowadays. They don't have much other option! :) We should celebrate their masculinity with them. :D
ReplyDeleteRebe, I heard them in the bathroom at Hope. lol. Some girl had a CD with that song on it. They are great! I miss you too dearie.
ReplyDeleteAnd Ash, that's SO TRUE. LOL.
