There's a song that's inside of my soul.
It's the one that I've tried to write over, and over again.
I'm awake in the infinite cold.
But you sing to me over, and over, and over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray.
To be only yours I pray.
To be only yours.
I know now, you're my only hope.

Sing to me the song of the stars.
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing, and laughing again.
When it feels like my dreams are so far.
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hands and pray.
To be only yours I pray.
To be only yours.
I know now, you're my only hope.

I give you my destiny.
I'm givin' you all of me.
I want your symphony, singing in all that I am.

At the top of my lungs, I'm givin' it back.

So I lay my head back down.
And I lift my hand and pray.
To be only yours I pray.
To be only yours I pray.
To be only yours.
I know now, you're my only hope.

after all that airport hell, I am home. Happy to be here although i miss all my new friends soo much. The trip was overall really fun despite the little issues. Vince and I resolved our fight to only start another 4hrs prior to my leaving (3am Greek time!) It was sad when i left.. We cried, Jenn & Alicia were balling like crazy and it was sad. The guys all came out (all guys minus Vince<- with good reason.) when we were leaving, it was sad.. lots of tears and pictures and hugs and promises to keep in touch. The Athens airport was pretty busy for 3am.. crazy. we flew to Frankfurt, Germany where we split with the Texas kids (that was sad too) Vinh and I managed to get ourselves lost but soon found the gate. The flight was long and delayed by 30min. We finally arrived in JFK airport(NY) 8 hrs later. That was horrible. We got VERY lost and were aimlessly roaming around the never ending airport. Finally we got to the gate and thats when the waiting began. we got there at 1:30pm. Our flight to Ft.Lauderdale was at 5:45pm. We were waiting there and I heard an announcement over the loud speaker saying that Ft.Laudy passengers could switch to an earlier West Palm Beach flight if they wished. I went right up and changed my ticket. Yes. Now 5:25 pm to West Palm Beach. Due to crappy weather the plane was delayed until 5:55pm <- not bad considering the Ft.Laudy plane was delayed from 5:45 to 7:40 <- ouch! yes well. we boarded the plane around 6:00pm. Late. O well, earlier the Ft.Laudy. This is when hell part deux struck. Crappy weather plus runway traffic.. we sat on the plane from 6pm-9:30pm when we finally took off. I was asleep by then. My cell phone battery died so i went to bed. Fun. Well arrived in the WPB airport at 11:55pm. Good to be home. its now 3:15am and I can't sleep. Figures right?

...disappointed you weren't on...

The Cricket ring as Brighton would call it... right. Anyways back to my initial point umm I think I may have scared someone last night.. Yes. another random thought.. I don't think very straight at night soo if you ever want to persuade me to do something or something like that.. do it at night heh. Right. Back to the point.. ehh. I'm feeling kind of badly now. I said something and immediately wanted to take it back. I think this is how I scared the Guppy Groper away (Grouper Groper as Annie would put it) yes. I scare guys away eep heh. Geez to an extent I think i'v even scared emo boy a bit heh. not good not good... at least Atman's still commenting 2 my entries heh. End of thought.
