The Simpsons - The Complete Third Season
see related

I just love the Simpsons. I really haven't found anything that makes me laugh quiet like the Simpsons. Hm...

I know that I haven't written on this thing is a really long time, but I don't feel like I have much to say. I've think I've been a little preoccupied lately. Hm...lets see. Oh, I know that I am for sure leaving the first week of August for the big sun pit that some call Southern California. I'm excited because I'll actually be around friends...its gonna be great! I think that is all the only news that I really have.

Happy 21st Birthday, Noah!

I just got back from Master's and had a great time. Bethany and I went apartment shopping and apartments aren't hard to find...it's just hard to find an apartment that we can afford. Suddenly living in a cardboard box sounds more appealing...and affordable lol.

Sorry...I'm boring...I can't think of anything else. If I find something interesting to say, the I've probably already said it to you. If not, then I'll post it later...

About a Burning Fire

I just got done spending much needed time with Christian friends. What a blessing! It's strange how you don't really realize how important fellowship is until you have it for the first time in a while. I needed that breath of fresh air. I suppose it's just so much easier for me to not seek out my Christian brothers and sisters while I'm in Washington, then to make the effort to allow the Lord to bless me in amazing ways. I hate being depraved...

I'm going to be going to California on Saturday to visit all those I love at Masters!!! Bethany and I will hopefully get some insite on this whole apartment thing for later this year. Usually I would be really stressed about a situation like this, but for some reason the Lord has given me such a peace about it. I know where I'm supposed to be and I know that the Lord will provide. That's all I need to know and right now thats enough for me.

PRAISE THE LORD THIS IS MY LAST WEK OF SCHOOL UNTIL THE FALL!!! Through much deliberation with the parentals and prayer, I've decided to take two quarters off (spring/summer). I'm really excited because that means: no more accounting classes with fourty year olds, no more dodging getting a parking ticket at school because the only spots that I can find are carpool spots, and best of all...no more having to get up at the butt crack of dawn to go to a class that my teacher doesn't even bother to show up to half of the time. Such a nice feeling...

Yesterday at church the pastor of Mars Hill made a funny comment about John McAurthur. Megs and I laughed....for a pretty long time. If you want to hear it go to www.marshill.com. It's a really good site anyways and you cane hear ever weeks message there as well. Check it out.

I hope the sun shines while I'm in Santa Clarita. It is supposed to start raingint here and the weather forcast shows straight rain showers for two straight weeks. For those of you who have never experienced Washington rain showers, you basically get drenched after running out to get your mail from the mailbox...and the back cuff of you pants are ALWAY wet...sometimes if makes my face sad.

Have a great day, everyone!!! I look forward to seeing (or meeting, if I dont know you) you all at the end of the week!

Catch 22
By Joseph Heller

Washington weather is back to gloomy and rainy. Suprise suprise...

I shaved my legs today. If you know me, you'll definatly understand the significance of me sharing that...

I love Girl Scout cookie season. I love it more than I should...

I hung out with Amanda (Welch) Shaud last night and her new hubby. He's a really cool guy...I definatly approve, even though my opinion doesn't really count. Oh well. Things start to seem a bit out of whack when my younger friends are already getting married. Dont get me wrong, I definatly am not even looking in the marriage direction yet...

Catch 22 is a really strange book. Good but strange...

I can offer you no more...

Don't Waste Your Life
By John Piper

I'm really excited about this next week...my friend Amanda, who moved to Wisconsin about two years ago is going to be in town, friday Megs comes home for Spring Break and Bethany comes home on Monday! FRIENDS IN MY STATE!!! Can't beat that...

My Kurt picture is coming together slowly. I've come to accept the fact that drawing is not and probably will never be my forte...

My new favorite movie is "Pretty in Pink". If you haven't seen it yet, go see it.

A friend of mine shared a site called purevolume.com...check it out. Anyone cool enough to be reading thing (or anyone with enough time on their hands to be reading this) should definatly give it a listen. It's a great site of raw sound...

That is all I have to offer...

It seems kind of strange how everyone has been talking SO much about The Passion of The Christ as a movie, and not so much as its effects. Maybe different areas arent feeling the effects as much as we are in the Northwest. PRAISE THE LORD SOMETHING IS CAUSING THIS HETHANISTIC STATE TO STUR!!!! It has been amazing to see how much publicity has come with this movie. Churches are handing out Bibles are theatres, there is at least one article in each newspaper almost everyday, there are shows about it on tv...it is just amazing! It seems to odd to me that such a small sturring can cause such a large commotion...perhaps it is because I live in one of the least churched states in America...perhaps. When you go see it or think about it, don't just think about you're own sins that are forgive, pray for those watching it or thinking about it who have sins that aren't forgiven.

I'm becoming an adult. Can I reverse this process?

I'm sick on internet friendships...I'm buying a plane and just flying to people because unfortunatly I also have been cursed with a fear of the phone...

Would it ever work out for me to just sleep through an entire week? If this week is anything like last week, then I'm going to need a vacation from life. I'm seriously going to look into it...

The end.
