Love this song....

Heard this song recently.  Had to listen to it again..... Being a super hero I just could identify with it, but realized how important Jesus is as the one that saves me.  Love how the song goes from being about Jesus being my hero, to me having Jesus living in me and motivating me to go out and impact others.



Hero -- By Skillet

I'm just a step away; I'm just a breath away
Losin' my faith today
JEN: Fallin' off the edge today

I am just a man; Not superhero
JEN: I'm not superhero
someone save me from the hate

[Pre:]
It's just another war; Just another family torn
JEN: Falling from my faith today
Just a step from the edge; Just another day in the world we live

[Chorus:]
I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero
JEN: Save me now
I need a hero to save my life
A hero'll save me
JEN: Just in time

[V2]
I gotta fight today; To live another day
Speakin' my mind today
JEN: My voice will be heard today

I've gotta make a stand; but i am just a man
JEN: I'm not superhero
My voice will be heard today

[Pre:]
It's just another war; Just another family torn
JEN: My voice will be heard today
It's just another kill; The countdown begins to destroy ourselves

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Who's gonna fight for what's right; Who's gonna help us survive
We're in the fight of our lives
JEN: And we're not ready to die

Who's gonna fight for the weak; Who's gonna make 'em believe
I've got a hero
JEN: I've got a hero

Livin' in me; I'm gonna fight for whats right;
Today I'm speaking my mind; And if it kills me tonight
JEN: I will be ready to die

A hero's not afraid to give his life; A hero's gonna save me just in time

[Chorus]

I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for whats right; Who's gonna help us survive

I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for the week; Who's gonna make 'em believe

A hero's gonna save me just in time

Nose hairs....

I hate nose hairs!  They are always sticking out of my nose.  They get really long too.  With it being allergy season I get lots of boogers stuck in there too.  Gabby keeps telling me when she looks in there it is like bats in a cave... snot stuck to my nose hairs.

Someone is lying to my friends....

I go to school and for some reason people are telling us that God is not real.  It is so hard because my friends are believing it.  I try to talk to them, but sometimes I just don't have the answers to give them.  More and more it is like we are speaking two different languages.

I guess I should expect this.  "The message of the cross is foolish to those who are headed for destruction! But we who are being saved know it is the very power of God."

Have to pray for wisdom.... Sigh.

New costume idea...

Found some black fabric in the basement.  If I slice the cape down the middle and then add this as a liner, I can zip it up for the silvery, flashy cape, and I can unzip and fold out to hide in dark place.  Hindsight... Blue, Orange and Silver do not work well for staying inconspicuous.  :)

Coming back soon...

I went into training for the past 6 months... I have a few new things to add. I can't hold it in any longer though... I am seeing too many things going on in my school. The winds of change are coming soon!!!

2008....

Sorry to all of my loyal followers. I have not had the chance to write much in this blog since the beginning of the month. I have made a few accomplishments.

First, I have come to a decision. Superman had a Fortress of Solitude. Batman had the Bat Cave. (I guess he had to go with Bat cave because Bat Room just doesn't sound all that manacing... sort of like Bath room) I will have the Wind Tunnel.

Second, I am getting rumours at school that there is someone calling themself Whirlwind and running around in tights... I guess sort of like me.

Third, if I ever have to talk to anyone, they will probably recognize my voice of they know me.... I was watching Jingle all the Way on Tv the other night. You know, the one with Arnold Swartzeneggar (who knows if that is spelled right?) dressed as Turbo Man during the Christmas parade? He had some kind of voice changer on his helmet. Maybe I can scale down the one in my Darth Vader mask and use that in my suit..... Oh the things I go through to be a super hero.

School is on break for now... They call it winter break. I call it Christmas break... whatever! As it we had a "red and green day".

I'll get back to it soon. Hope you all had a good Christmas. Happy New Year..... Actually...

This new year feels like a WINDPROOF New Year!!!

U-Reaka!

I got an idea for a cool gadget. It would involve these small micro turbines in between my fingers attached to gloves. If I can gain enough power, they could give me a short burst of flight, or maybe knock someone over, or turn them around! Maybe I could come up with a way to harness enough power in some form using my cape.

Could be neat?

Not today...

Guess I'll have to try to talk to her tomorrow. I'm sick today. What a waste of time!

The Big Plan....

Here I am in computer class. I can see Marcie hunched over her desk. She seems so sad since the laugh incident. I'll try to get her to talk to me again soon. I need a good idea. What can a guy like me do to get her attention long enough to encourage her, and not make it like I have crush on her?

Write a funny poem and put it in her locker? ... maybe

Try to find something that she is involved in and talk to her in a more natural way? ... maybe

Lock her in a room so she can't run away? ... DEFINITELY NOT!!!

More thinking to do. Windproof out... Before the teacher catches me blogging. :)

Talked to her....

I was just standing there after school and I saw her coming out the door. I wasn't sure what her name was... Anyways... I told her who I was and then she told me her name... Turns out it is Marcie (ok... I changed her name so that no one would know who she is. I just don't like calling her "her" and "she" all the time). I said that I wanted to talk to her about her poem in class. She cut me off and screamed that she wished everyone would just leave her alone about it. She started to cry, and ran off. I tried to call after her, but she kept going. I could hear her crying loudly as she ran. I guess lots of people made fun of her.... Why do people have to make fun when others try something new?

The Jar...

Begun to fill a jar with finger and toenail clippings. This is going to take forever to fill. I'm hoping to be able to use them for a kind of irritant to stop someone from doing something wrong. Not sure how yet, but here I go a clipping.

... Maybe down someone's back will make them itch and stop what they are doing to go get rid of it.....

Further plans needed.

Sad girl in the corner...

Today at lunch I saw a girl in the corner sitting by herself. She looked really sad. Earlier in English class I saw her try to share a poem that she wrote in front of the class. A guy at the back laughed, and then others joined in.

It wasn't a funny poem. I could tell she worked really hard on it.

I wish I wasn't so shy, or I would have gone to talk to her about her poem. I liked it. Maybe I'll get another chance to encourage her.

I hope.

Stink Bomb Test 3....

Concoction of sweaty socks and dirty underwear did produce the desired scent, but upon attempt to deliver the bomb to intended targets..... Well, let's just say device failed... Need long shower. WP

Why Windproof???

Since I have started going by the name Windproof, people have been asking me what it means. I ran across this verse in the Bible, Ephesians 4:14 "Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth."

I guess I keep thinking in a different direction than some of my friends. They call me immature for not wanting to do some of the things that they do, but I think that choosing to do what is right, makes you mature.

Sometimes someone will say something in class that just doesn't make sense to me, but I don't know why.... Maybe I'll try to remember it and ask about it in Infuzion. WP

Ummmm.... Not sure...

Windproof's log... No, that's cheezy... been done to death... Umm... Ok, I'll have to think of a way to lead into all of my entries....

I have finally finished my suit. I think it looks AMAZING! Who would have thought that orange, blue and silver could go together so well? I just have to figure out how to keep my hood on. When I really get going, it falls off. There is too much of a chance that people will figure out who I am.... For now they should just know me as WINDPROOF! WP
