Good post Dane, I liked it a lot. So I figured since I actually made it around to looking at Livejournal I should update as well. Things are pretty easy right now. I usually have a paper and a test due every week, but with statistics and perspectives on the individual being 2 of my 4 classes, I don't have much work. This leaves me with a lot of time to play guitar and it is quite fun. Umm, besides that I have a club or organized event to do at least once a night, and most of the time twice a night. This is what generally takes up all my time. So that is really it.
I'm gonna go see David Barnes tonight at new city cafe, that should be a lot of fun and then I'm finally gonna catch up on sleep tomorrow. Can't wait. Well, time for me to do my homework so I wont have any come sunday. Later guys.

Hey guys how has it been? So this is the first time I've been on livejournal since I left. So anyway, I don't really know what has been going on so I'm just gonna hope yall are all doing ok. I'm fine and still alive. College is a lot of fun so far, but a crap load more work than high school. So anyway, I think I'm averaging 5 hrs a night with a few sittin' around 7 when it comes to homework which yall all know that isnt by any means my forte in life. But I think I'm doing good. My schedule is Old Testament Studies, Perspectives on the Individual, Orientation class, Statistics, English Comp, and German. All together 17 hrs b/c two of my classes have labs. German meets every day which put me at 4 classes on tuesday, thursday, and friday. That sucks b/c I don't finish school until 2:50 on friday. Oh well, its all fun. So anyway, I'm still not hooked up the the internet in my room so don't expect me to be on anytime soon yet. I have to reformat my PC and then we can work on it. But I gotta to get out of the library b/c I'm just not enjoying the surplus of kids running around right now. Take it easy.

Ok friends, time for Kyle to share in the "updating experience" so here is my "leaving for college post." Umm...the summer has been fun. Basically, I worked and went out of town. I can't say I spent that much time with everyone, but I'm not really upset about it b/c I'm just not real upset about leaving. Before summer I thought I would be, but we are all gonna be too busy to really hang out anyway, and we still have four years of holiday vacations to OS, so its really all cool in my head.
I finally got to talk to my roomate who happens to be a drummer so that is exciting. We've basically got everything sorted out dorm room wise and I'm finally getting excited about leaving for school. I'm definantly ready to go and being one of the last to leave kinda sucks, but whateva.
I guess that is it. I will leave town on the 24th, move in the night of the 25th, take test and stuff on the 26th, go white water rafting and camping from the 27-29, orientation and class scheduling is the 30th, and my first day of academics is the 1st. So, anyway, good luck with everything, and yall take care.

So I got my car yesterday. Its a 2000 Nissan Maxima, smoke silver with grey cloth interior. Nice things would be the sunroof and Bose stereo system. I'm rather happy with it but also kinda bummed b/c I feel grown up now. The reason for that would be I'm working full time trying to keep up my bank account and I am now paying insurance and a car note. Oh well, gotta do what you gotta do.
Ok I'm tired, gonna go find something to do so I can run myself down a little bit more before I go to sleep. Laters.

Well, I just got back from FL and I'm quite exhausted. Staying up til all hours of the night and getting up mid afternoon is the life, but it certainly can take it out of you, especially after an 8hr drive.
Anyway, I had about as much fun as anyone can have. We went to Busch Gardens, Caladesi (a beach on an island), some random widelife park, and we watched, I think a total of 9 movies in 5 days.
Now I am home where I will embark on a 40hr week of work and the purchasing of a vehicle so I can return to FL and see little miss citrus county again. I know I just spent an entire week with her, but I still miss her. I'm pathetic.
Well, I need to go do post vacation laundry. Lata guys.

Well, I don't know about yall but I'm about tired. Just kinda want to sleep for an entire day or something of the sort. Either way, for my serious portion of this post I will say that I'm almost through learning how to balance living, and staying religious. Basically this entire senior year I tried being almost perfect b/c I felt like I was being watched to see if I was making mistakes. Basically I'm pulling a Dane, trying to balance the sun and the moon. Although I am fighting a different moon. It's always fun to hit new revolations concerning life.
For my nonserious post: Brett, Robert H., and myself were writing music tonight and when we were done we went in the living room. Well, anyone who knows Robert should understand that he normally doesn't think before speaking, nor does he care how stupid what he says sounds. So anyway, he tells a joke, "what do you tell a woman with two black eyes.....nothing, you already told her twice" (chuckle, chuckle, and a giggle from Katt) Then he says, "why is stevie wonder always smiling....b/c he doesn't know he's black." (more laughter) and then, this is the good part, he says, "if you can't laugh at racism, what can you laugh at." Awesome Robert, awesome.
Just to clear the air, Robert is in no way a racist, he just has a good sense of humor and a lose tounge. Fun times Robert, keep making people laugh.

Ok kids, time for a funny story b/c I told the guys last night at Apple B's (wth, how is that written) and they all loved it so here it is.
So Chris' cousin and I have been talking since his graduation party. So Chris and I planned our trip to FL and we stayed with his cousin and she hung out with us the entire weekend. So anyway, rumors got around at Chris' house. Well, Chris, Chris' padre, and myself went fishing the other day. So Chris' dad asks me about Stephanie (Chris' cousin) and I tell him about a story envolving, her and her mom. So I finish my story and his dad goes, "hey, I heard a story the other day." So I'm like "really, what is it?" So with the a grin on his face, Mr. Musselwhite says, "3 people went fishing, 2 came back." lolz. So anyway, I told them it was messed it up and all this other junk but nothing satisfied my thirst for retaliation b/c I had just gotten owned by his dad. So after fishing we go to a movie, and I'm talking to Mrs. Musselwhite and she asks me about my step-sister. I told her that she is probably about to marry her long distance relationship fellow, and she is like "oh really, thats sweet." So with a grin on my face I turn to Mr. Musselwhite and say, "see, there's hope after all." And without thought or delay of time, Chris' dad turns around and says, "3 people went to a movie, 2 came back." lolz, I got owned by my friends dad.
So anyway, I hope yall enjoyed.

livejournal sucks. I absolutely hate it but I find myself on it every other day or so. It is so much crap. Why!!! errrr.
Anyway, I thought I would "update" since I do read everyone elses and it only seems right to tell everyone that I read about what I've been doing. So lets see. The only thing I've done that yall don't know about is the mix. That was friday; there was a low number of people that attended, it drew me to the conclusion that youth pastors are irresponsible b/c of how many churches didnt show and how much extra crap I had to do b/c they didn't do what they said, and I've come to the conclusion that organizing events hinders my lackadazial(sp?) life. But now that it is over I'm quite alright with my apethetic lifestyle of dealing with things.
On another note, I have come to the conclusion that I suck at guitar and I don't want to play for anything nor anyone anymore with the exception of happening and church functions. Sorry Jenny, that means no CF. It just seems ridiculous to me b/c I know I can play mediocre, but everything I play is boring so until I improve myself, I would like to stop pretending like I'm actually good by performing at stupid events, and focus on actually getting better. But either way, it doesn't matter.
To end on a funny note, this lady got up in front of my church today and hit up little kids for money. She said, "and children too, instead of getting that $5 happy meal you could donate to the parsonage fund b/c every little bit helps." It is one thing to ask for money anyway, but to hit up little kids is ridiculous b/c parents should be the ones teaching children to tithe, not weird women who want money for their committees funds. I was incredibly dissappointed and then the music became a big show instead of actual worship. But the best part about that was when the played "Heart of Worship" b/c that song was written by a band who got off track and started focusing on performing instead of worshiping. Too much fun and irony at the same time.
Anyway, yall have a good week.

Life is simple. Put aside all religion and what are you living for. It would have to be for enjoyment b/c no one in their right mind would live voluntarily in a world they hate unless they have a reason. Put aside religion and the reason people endure life is b/c of earthly relationships that always seem to dissappoint us and let us down. Put aside religion and life sucks.
Now add religion. Life takes on a greater meaning. We have something to live for, a purpose to exsist. Friends take on the purpose of encouraging us, and helping us through life. Not to just be there to give us a reason to live.
The reason teenagers are so melodramatic is b/c they are surface deep and don't get the true purpose of their life. We aren't here to build relationships, but at the same time we need them to keep us going. Yeah graduation is sad, but we need not waste time pondering on it. Just like the rest of life it will come and go. But it doesn't mean all our friends will go too.
I think on the surface we should all be like Robert. He said it best when he said, "Pip, life is what you make it; so turn that frown upside down." Gotta love a goof like R2D2.
As far as the deeper part of life goes, that is where we people get in trouble. Everyone is here for a reason, there is no other sane logic. And the reason religionless people are still with us today is b/c they know there is more to life than what they have found, and they can see it through their friends.

The more I think about it the more I realize how much I really love my friends. And before these past trips and before gov't I was fine with leaving and I even wanted to. But now I'm ready and willing, but scared when before I was anxious. And I'm not scared about leaving or starting in life but I'm scared that I will forget high school. All of our parents went off to school and very few of them have friends from high school. And realistically that will happen to us. But why can't we say "no." Why can't we stay in touch and why can't I believe that we will. I cried last night for you and I want you to know that. B/c it isn't often that I cry, and even though I live with a facade of invincibility, I'm fake. So I just wanted to say to all my friends, that I love you, and don't be fooled by my mask. I am scared to leave you and I do care about you. - Pip

I find this world a curious place. I've said it before allow me to say it again. We all claim our salvation, and that Jesus is King. (when i say "we all" dont get mad if you don't fall into the boat, it's just a pronoun to me, though it might not be a pronoun at all) Anyway, we claim our salvation and our love for our Savior. And yet the only thing any of us seem to be fixed on is our own selfish ambition and happiness. Sorry, I'll stop b/c I'm assuming too much. But listen. Just think about what you believe. If you are a Christian it is that God sent His son Jesus to die for us. And think about all that Jesus went through to give us a chance at heaven. Now consider how you are living. Should we not stop at nothing to live for Him? Should we not devote our entire lives to His glory? I think so. (and that doesnt mean everyone is suppose to be a preacher. you can do whatever just do it for His glory) And when I make post about the Bible all I'm trying to do is get yall to think. I apologize for affending yall, but you aren't required to read my post nor my comments. The sole reason I posted about Dane's entry is b/c I love my Jesus and I can not sit by and listen to anyone rationalize what I believe to be a sin, or at the very least morally wrong in Jesus' eyes. Sorry for yall having to put up with me but I'm about as stubborn as they come and I'm not afraid to stand up for what I believe. And I honestly care about yall and that is why I relentlessly post about God's mercy knowing I'm gonna catch crap about it. I don't like thinking about yall going off to college thinking it is ok to drink when I disagree. So I wanted to share my opinion, thats all.
Either way, God loves us all and I'm perfectly content with that.

First let me apologize for any future fueds that I may have caused. I did not intend to start anything, I was just making Biblical reference to my opinions.
Ok, Dane and Jamie, yall two got me. I didn't think about man made laws being pure and of God. And the idea that 18 year olds can fight and not drink is a little skewed, but I stand by my opinion. Here is my reason. We look at Hebrews 13:17: "Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you." So, what this says is that it is of no advantage to you to disobey the authorities. Therefore we have been commanded to be submissive to them. The law is an authourity, and it is of no advantage to yall to drink when underage, and you have been informed of this in the Bible. Make law enforcements job joyful and obey them, while preaching the word of God. This is our commandment.
And lust is pleasure. If you don't think masterbating is lust than I honestly can't find a verse stating otherwise. But there are plenty saying that you should respect the purity of sex, and adultry is more than fornicating with another person. Look them up, you don't need me to. But I personally try and not to endulge in lust. Simply b/c if I feel bad about something and am ashamed to admit it to someone, than I logically consider it wrong, and a sin. That is me, "to which his own."
As far as the anonymous person who lives for nothing and denies God, you posted about slaves. Allow me to take this farther. Ephesians 6:5-8: "Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, b/c you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free." Now I don't usually like credit or anything, but dude, I just owned you. (said like steve) But anyway, nothing is accomplished by fighting. And Martin Luther King Jr. my friend, knew this and had nonviolent protest. And if you'd read the Constitution like a well educated young man, you'd find that it is our right to pettition and assemble peacefully. MLK Jr. knew this and if he did break the law somewhere down the line, I'm quite sure he didn't mean to.
As far as my "little Chineese boogers" I was kidding. I use to be serious about the military, but that was when I was holding onto a long grudge which will not be discussed on Lj. At Happening #13 I let that little grudge go. Felt quite good to. But allow me to admitt I have said things to contradict that statement. And I might have meant some of them. But not now. Now the only thing that could make me angry enough to kill would be a murder or sometype of assualt on family or friends. And in which case I say I would kill, but deep down I think we all know I don't have it in me.
In conclusion Jesus boiled our 10 commandments down to 2. Love God, and love thy neighbor. "anonymous" I'm sorry if you don't understand me and if you think I'm brainwashed. And I know this means nothing to you but I'm praying for you and God loves you no matter how many times you deny Him. I hope you find peace in your life. If in anyway you are interested in my Jesus please don't be ashamed to ask for guidance. It is why individual like myself are here. God bless everyone. (said like the little kid on that christmas movie, i forgot the name of it)

Ok buddy, here are some things that need to be said. First and most important is that your friends are not gonna leave you b/c you decided to drink. That would be really gay and immature if any of us just decided to stop caring b/c you decided to be human and make different choices than us. And I think I can speak for our old smaller group of guys when I say we love you like a brother. (sniffle, sniffle, tear)
Secondly I have to say I'm dissappointed in everyones acceptance of your philosophy on drinking and masterbating. Allow me to elaborate. 1Peter 4:3 says, "For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do-living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry." This will be the basis for my "arguement." (though I hate to call it an arguement)
Ok, so to address drinking. In 1John 3:4 John wrote, "Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness." As far as I know drinking before you are 21 is breaking the law, therefore considered a sin to our Father. Along with this is the prior verse saying that "drunkeness" is something pagans did. Back then the term "pagans" referred to gentiles who were religiously structurless and Godless. This is why drinking and drunkeness are wrong. However, drinking is in the Bible as you pointed out, and I believe a responsible drinker, who is of age, is not committing sin when consuming alcohol.
Now, to adrress masterbation. I think we can all agree that masterbation is an act of lust. Not only is it lust but it is also debauchery. According to Webster debauchery is, "excessive indulgence in sensual pleasures." Also Proverbs 6:25 says, "Do not lust in your hearts..." So if we aren't suppose to lust in our hearts, I doubt we are suppose to lust in our hands. So, to conclude this segment, I give you props on your success of lent, but you should live that way, not just do it for lent.
I guess what most people do is they try and rationalize with themselves that it is ok to drink while underage and masterbate b/c they don't want to feel bad about doing either, when deep down, I think most people know both are morally wrong and sins. And society has made it a habit to build a grey area in life, but truthfully there is not a grey area to live in. You either go to heaven, or hell. Your actions are either sinful, or righteous. If you wouldn't do something infront of Jesus than it is probably wrong, with maybe a few exceptions. Revelations 3:16 says, " So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth." Kinda rough I know but that is how it is.
One more thing is how everyone says it is "ok" after you do something wrong. No, it really isn't ok to committ a sin. Yeah, we all do it, me too, but that doesn't make it ok. 1John 3:5-6 says, "But you know that He appeared so that He might take away our sins. And in Him is no sin. No one who lives in Him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen Him or known Him." John isn't saying that if you sin you aren't a christian b/c that would be absurd. But you shouldn't be "ok" with it either. We all saw the film "the Passion of the Christ." The way I think of it is that everytime Jesus got lashed, it was for one of my sins. Why would anyone who truly believes Jesus is their Savior, openly committ a sin when knowing how much He suffered just to give us another chance.
Short and sweet, you were right about society being the source from which most of the world today obtains their morals. But my philosophy is that soceity indirectly obtained those morals from some religion whether it be Islam, Buddhism, or Christianity. And if not than it doesn't matter anyway b/c God chooses who His children are and who will accompany Him in heaven, not society. I think the biggest problem in the world today is the idea of not being accepted. That is why some drink, why some girls flirt, and why others deny Jesus of His true majesty. And the reason why I dont endulge in drinking and the reason I practice anti-masterbation is b/c I love Jesus. Of course I fall short and sin, and it isn't ok, but I'm forgiven. So allow me to say you are wrong about everyone who portrays the sun becoming the moon when given an ounce of freedom. I'm not who I am b/c of a lack of freedom, it is b/c I made a choice to live this way. And you are wrong about how too much of the sun makes us unhappy. The happiest I will ever be is with my Lord, and I don't need to go drinking to figure that out. The reason I'm not on top of the world is b/c I watch my friends, who I love, ignore the truth of life, when I know they have experienced God's love. It hurts to see that, and it takes a big toll on my heart, and I'll speak for Bradley as well.
I leave you with graceful words of the Apostle Paul:
"As for you, you were dead in sin, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobediant. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature objects of wrath. But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions-it is by grace you have been saved." Eph. 2:1-5

I love the world and everything in it. The best thing in the world is going down to the beach and layin out in the sun, listening to the water come upon the shore and then retreat back to the ocean, and the wind keeping you just cool enough that you dont persperate. And society, in all its maturity holds intellectual conversations about real topics. Americans take care of each other and nobody feels unwanted or unloved. When we have a problem about something we talk it out, and profound compromises prove that everyone can get what they want. Greed is an undefined term b/c it doesn't exist it our society of maturity and civic virtue. Isn't such a wonderful world.
What a Wonderful World Lyrics
Some of you young folks been saying to me
"Hey Pops, what you mean "What a wonderful world"
How about all them wars all over the place
You call them wonderful
And how about hunger and pollution
That aint so wonderful either"
Well how about listening to old Pops for a minute
Seems to me, it aint the world that's so bad
but what we're doin' to it
And all I'm saying is
See what a wonderful world
It would be if only we'd give it a chance
Love baby, love
That's the secret, Yeah
If lots more of us loved each other
We’d solve lots more problems
And then this world would be better
That's wha' ol' Pops keeps saying
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom, for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
I see skies of blue, and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces, of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, sayin' "how do you do?"
They're really sayin' "I love you"
I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more, than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Oh yeah

Alright children here is the scenario. Just about every week I host Bible study at my house. Yes, it was irritating that 3 people showed up yesterday b/c every week I have to clean before and after the study. This is tideous but not a big deal, if it were successful. But the main issue is that it isn't really helpful, except for moral support. So the "Bible study" part of our meetings is almost pointless b/c it doesn't seem like anyone cares. But I can't really judge that so I'll let it go. But what I can say is that the inconsistancy of participation and the routine in which Bible study as fallen into has led me to stop hosting the study. If not indefinantly than atleast for a few weeks until I can get back on my feet. If it really does mean a lot to you, then I encourage one of yall to pick up my slack.
This is the other thing. I'm sure you've noticed my "emo" self as some of yall might put it. Well, yall are right, I'm not on top of the world right now and the only help I get is people telling me to stop being "depressed" and yall pestering me about what is wrong. Let me help yall understand what I want and what is wrong. I have a different perspective on life, which doesn't really match anyones. No Bradley, no Jenny, yall dont understand me. Everyone thinks I'm pessimistic, I think I'm realistic, either way it doesn't matter. But here is what happens, I will say something in Gov. or Bible study and then I get jumped on by everyone about how I'm wrong. Last time I checked, opinions weren't wrong. Ya'll misinterpret what I say (my fault) but when I try and help yall understand yall focus on what yall thought I meant. (side note: i say "yall" a lot) Anyway, life isn't carefree and fun for me right now. I'm not looking at college and thinking about how I'm gonna have fun or how I'm gonna miss my friends, I'm looking at college and getting upset b/c I forsee many of my friends falling away from Christ at college. Life isn't all fun and games for me right now, and I can't just get over it and let it go. I'm really passionate about a lot of stuff and I'm sorry if yall dont understand.
Here is what I want. I want to be left alone. I know that yall care and you dont mean to pester me but I'll be ok, and I don't need yalls help. Pestering me about why I'm upset doesn't work anyway b/c if I tell yall, you'll just tell me im pessimistic and not allow me to explain myself. So allow me to be "emo" for a while, and stop worrying about me.
And before yall go and make a comment about how I should have just told yall this to your face, and not posted it on livejournal, I'll explain that this applies to everyone and I would rather not have to explain this to everyone that asks me "whats wrong?" I hope yall can understand that.

An interesting thing happened today. I got home and checked my mail and my counselor at Lambuth University wrote me a letter telling me to be expecting the award for the Golden Circle Scholarship. I'm sure none of you know what that is so allow me to elaborate. It's a scholarship for diverse individuals. Weird thing is I'm a white male. One would think I would automatically lose, but apparently not. Fun stuff.
So anyway, I just thought I wuold say thanks for the birthday party. Twas a lot of fun. And yes Dane, I do have the ability to smile. I just perfer not to use it all the time, I don't know why, I just don't. Anyway, I don't like this whole updating thing too much. So until I think of something profound (which might take a while) you probably wont hear from me much.
Oh yeah, BS is tomorrow at my house as always. 7pm. Laters.

Ok, so school has finally eased up some. It was rough there for a while but now it isn't too bad. But work sucks, b/c I'm working over almost 30 hrs a week, and not getting half as much as some other losers who work half as much as me. So annoying. But anyway thats not why I posted. I decided to tell yall a story.
So today was the SAT Eng 2 test. Well, Hawkins was assigned to give the test to the little children who had to take it so we didn't have to do physics today. Instead, after Mrs. Townsend left and we found a tennis ball we started playing wall ball. Well, our "sub" came and watched us for a while and it was most enjoyable. With about 30 minutes left in the class Hawkins comes back, but decides to be cool and play wall ball with us. So we are playing and eventually he gets 3 outs or whatever, so he has to go stand up at the wall and get peged twice by any of us. Well Jimmy was the only one that wanted to throw at him, so I decided to do the other one b/c I figured I'd miss anyway. Sweet, you might say, you got to peg your teacher with a tennis ball. Well, your wrong. What happens is you try and throw so hard that you lose aim, and thats not good. So I step back, and I throw at Hawkins, and ironically enough it nailed him, right in the back of the head. So everyone started busting out laughing, and I was just like "crap!" B/c I already struggle in Physics, I really don't need to be on his bad side. So he just stood there for a sec, and then rubbed the back of his head. I apologized and was then questioned by the class what he did that made me so mad. And I was afraid he was gonnna think I meant to hit him and it was just bad. So anyway, he said it sent a tingle down his spine and needless to say, I'm a little apprehensive about going back to class tomorrow. But all is fair in wall ball and it was an accident. But that is my story. For you Hawkins loathers I hope you enjoyed, but for the rest of you it twas an accident. Later.

Time is a horrible thing. Atleast in this moment of ill-logic it is a horrible thing. But to stand up for my view it does make everything stressful and err. But without time what would we do. With society being the lazy bums they are we would sit around and waste our lives wondering what we could accomplish. I think I'm pretty optimistic when I'm in a good mood but I've yet to be optimistic about society or America. If things keep going on and everyone keeps fighting for more rights we will eventually become a completely free nation, and America will be useless except for preparing people for Hell. (yall should quote me on that sometime) America is desensitized to violence, nudity, gore and all the evil that Satan has left us to consume. And we do consume it without thinking twice about it. But the obvious is that the average person is not smart enough to be left alone with all the freedom they want. That is why I support gov. whether it be national or state. We need it to keep everyone in line. But to end optimistically I will say that America has seemed to create a decent gov. however, there is without a doubt no perfect gov.
I want to buy an island and start my own gov., completely independent from the world (however almost impossible), and the higher law is the Bible, and we live alone, under no authority except that in Heaven and if everyone was geniune there would be no need for gov. so scratch the "i want to start my own gov. thing"
have a good day.

Howdy guys. Hope yall are doing as well as I am, even though I'm not that well. However, recently I seem to have obtained the ability to look past the negatives and stay pretty optimistic. Fun stuff. But either way, Mardi Gras break starts tonight for me. Bad thing is I have to work almost 30hrs this week. Oh well, that means more money. Which is bad, b/c I'll just spend it and I'm kinda letting money be an idol by saying that but I think I'm ok. It all goes to gas and other necessities anyway, so I'm not being irresponsible with it. Eww, I got to see one of my good friends from Colorado yesterday. That was great, I'm going to go see her again today and then she will probably be at the parades Tuesday as well. Laura's so fun, but she has to go back Wed. so that sucks. But good times til then.
But anyway, for the bible study gang, I need your prayers. It is of course gonna stay an unspoken, but just keep that in your prayers if you will. Guys, yall know what I'm talking about. But thank ya much, and have a good Mardi Gras.

Wow, yall kids have a lot of time for updating. (my apologies on the "kids" it isnt mean to be degrating I just felt like saying it; I don't want to start anything) But anyway, it took me quite a while to read all that I've missed. Sounds like most people are on the same emotional rollercoaster. Pretty weird how that works. But as long as you get the up's with the down's I suppose its all fun. And life would be rather boring if we were all in a state of "blahness." I love making up words. So fun, so fun. But anyway, have fun updating, I'll see a lot of yall tomorrow. But until then, cheer up.
