Walking

Have you ever walked and felt all alone?
Listening to the wind and its spiritual tone;
Allow the breeze to pass through your heart,
It can fill the emptiness and bring a new start.

Have you ever walked when you were in pain?
When nothing was right and life was in vain;
Listen tot he shimmer of the leaves on the trees,
They can brush the soul and put your mind as ease.

Have you ever walked with nowhere to go?
To pass the time where no one will know;
Stand in the warmth of the sun's mystical ray,
It can fill the emptiness and briten your day.

Have you ever walked with a friend that is true?
Someone who will understand and listen to you;
Friendship is the greatest gift one can give,
It is between two people and a sacred way to live.

Have you ever walked through life with a friend?
The walk is fulfilled and much greater to the end.

She says she's no good with words but I'm worse
Barely stuttered out"A joke of a romantic" or stuck to my tongue
Weighed down with words too over-dramatic
Tonight it's "it can't get much worse"
Vs. "no one should ever feel like.."

I'm two quarters and a heart down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me

You always fold just before you're found out
Drink up its last call
Last resort
But only the first mistake and I...

I'm two quarters and a heart down
And I don't want to forget how your voice sounds
These words are all I have so I'll write them
So you need them just to get by

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress, love

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead
Dance, this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me

Why don't you show me the little bit of spine
You've been saving for his mattress (mattress, mattress)
I only want sympathy in the form of you crawling into bed with me

Dance, Dance
We're falling apart to half time
Dance, Dance
And these are the lives you'd love to lead

Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)
Dance this is the way they'd love (way they'd love)
Dance this is the way they'd love
If they knew how misery loved me

Old Man Works Out

Okay, I know it's a funny picture to imagine. An old man working out? But I'm not an "old man" yet, although I am OldManRivers.

It's crazy how mysterious kexe7nek siyam works. I was originaly wanting to be in normal P.E but in order to take Film And Television 11/12 I had to take P.E Conditioning. Instead of playing "games" and the alike, I'll be doing actualy work outs. This means OldMan will be getting fit ladies and gentlemen. That also means (for you ladies) OldMan will have a very sexy bod. ;) I'm really glad I ended up in this class because I was originaly wanting to start working out anyway. This way I can moniter my improvment and really watch myself. It'll give me a chance to start working out extencivly and progress.

But yesterday was our first day. We did the 12 minute run and I did "not bad". I completed exactly 5 laps around the field. Again, the problem of my, so called, "cramps" came into play around the 2nd lap. It hurts like hell but this time it wasn't as bad. I was actualy surprised I made it around 2 laps without stoping. I've never done that before. But I was O.K with my turn out. I will want to continue doing walks and such but this was not that bad of a work out.

But today, was some more testing. We did our "warm up". My teacher said "you should be sweating by the end of this or on the verge of sweating". I thought "ya okay whatever" but to my surpirse I was sweating and muscles were slightly sore. Was crazy. I couldn't believe what was hurting and what I stretched. (For you Choices Junkies, this was actualy a "stretch" but in two different ways) It was a great warm up and I know I'll get beter over time. Then the next thing we did is go out to the field and do push ups. I compelted a big "two". Yes, that is not a spelling mistake, I completed two push ups. Not that bad but still pretty bad. I did more but it was a problem of my hips and touching the fist. The teacher got our partners to put a fist under our chest to make sure we did it properly. I completed two. Then the next was sit ups. I did 21. Not bad, thought I could do more but it was a little tough. Need stronger abs. The next thing we did was this weird leg sitting thing. We went to the bleachers and had one partner count while the other did the exsersise. I had to keep my right leg off the ground and sit up and down on the bleachers for 60 seconds. 10 second break then another 60 seconds with the other leg. What was funny is I did 2 with my left leg and 30 with my right. Again, I was having trouble. I did more then 2 but I kept on touching the ground and everything. The more consecutive I completed was 2 but I did about 15 in total. The 30 was alot easyer, (partly due to me lifting my leg higher off the ground) but I seem to have a strong right left anyways. Next thing was our practicing for the 40 yrd sprint. Now this is a big thing for me as I came in 1st the last time I did this. I never trained or ran or did any exsersise what-so-ever before I did but I came up with 4.4 seconds. This time he showed us how to start so I figure I can do better, hopefully. I am hoping to do the best again. We shall see tomorrow.

All in all, I'm glad I'm in this class as I get to train to be more fit. Strong more versitile OldManRivers right?

Little Jelous...lol



I was listening to a Damian Marley song called "Old War Chant" and it made me realize I want one.

My friend was talking about he was going to make a Kwakwala Haka. It sounded funny when he started singing one in Kwakwala. Then I starting to wish my people had one. After thinking for a bit, I realized, my people probably had somthing similar.

Now I am on a mission to find somthing similar to a War Chant. Must find war dance.

Singing Practices

Yes ladies and gentleman, I am starting the Singing Practices. I feel so great about this. It'll give me a chance to really spread my wings and fly. There are people who complain but I feel even greater because I am doing somthing. I have a feeling this is going to take off and really explode among my community. (Which is great)

I put the newsletter out in the community flyer. I also started telling people. I sent the e-mail. It is all in the works. Eventualy the word will spread and everything will take off. There is enough intrest among the community to get into our culture and really shine as powerhouse Skwxwu7mesh people.

This is going to be great!
