yesterday

Yesterday was fun.

Church was fun. I got lots of funny looks from lots of people :P

After church I went over to the Olenick's house. I shouldn't have gone, cuz Blake thought he was having other guests, but oh well. Then, they didn't show up, so he (re)invited the Powells and the Blackburns.
We got in the pool around 5. Daniel did a full double front flip; David was jumping in with Kristina in his arms or on his back or shoulders; and I did several backslaps trying to replicate one of the tamer things Daniel was doing.
And their diving board was (again) cracked by Daniel (who else?). As far as I know, you can still go off it, you just can't jump as much on it, and you have to be careful.

Then I went back to church. We pretty much just sang hymns in the service; Clarice can sing while reading. After the service, we walked down to the Firewall where they were having a Memorial Day cookout.

Then when we (finally) got home at 9:30, I was reading Les Miserables. The part I was reading was actually interesting, so I was kinda disappointed that I was still falling asleep during it. Not from boredom, but just from tiredness! So I went to sleep.

contradictions

I like contradiction songs. They're so sublime.

Jars of Clay is particularly good at this sort of song. Particularly, Faith Enough; in which they say things like "I'm home enough to know I'm lost ... I can see enough to know I'm blind." They have another good one like this, on their Good Monsters album I think...

Happy Day

Today was a happy day. So was yesterday.

David came to Nexus yesterday evening (thank you!). We talked about a lot of different stuff, starting with magic and going through many other things, including peace, church politics, and the world economic status.
Then we played Keesdrow. Very fun game. It's sort of like, Boggle meets Scrabble meets strategy game =D

Then, today.
Church was actually not that great, for some reason =/

After church I got to go over to the Olenick's. There, we did fun stuff.
We ate (duh).
The Blackburns came over.
At that point, we officially "christened" their pool :D
Then played Big Boss Little Boss. (Daniel made a track in the upper level of their barn, and drove a scooter around it very fast.)

Then, we went back to church. The evening service was better, a little.

Then, several funny things were said by my mother. Including, "I keep forgetting you were gone the whole day." lol

Then, we went home and my internet wouldn't work for almost an hour. :|

Well, today I wasn't feeling so great, idk why.

But, going to mime and seeing all those crazy people really perked me up. Again, I have no idea why. =)

movie

just finished watching the hunt for red october.

good movie, interesting storyline. can see myself enjoying it multiple times.

will have to find another movie to request from the library... any suggestions?

today was tiring.

but... I got to time for 4 hours at Clarice's swim meet, and I wasn't too badly nostalgic about it.
And, I finished part one of Les Miserables.

Twice in one Day?

It doesn't rain, it pours I guess

So the rest of my day went pretty good too, good enough to post anyways!

--Mime was great. We worked on Fighter (love that piece), then All Things New. And there was a really nice thunderstorm outside for some of it.

--Karaoke was fun. If I hadn't been having such a good day, I might not have sang, but I thought, Why not? let's go for it. So I did. I sang Who Wouldn't Want To Be Me? by Keith Urban. A really fun song :)

hmm... not as much there as I thought there would be. Oh well, good things happen!

Ahh...

Ok, first of all, sorry I haven't posted in ... 8 days.

But, today was kinda nice. I have been sitting down doing nothing in particular for the last 5 hours. Which is always a nice thing to do.

And there's mime tonight. And then that karaoke thing afterwards.

short

Today was nice: I had 2 short classes.

In chemistry, the professor let us out about 25 minutes early. We still had lab, but that was only a quiz. All told, I was done with the whole thing (lecture and lab) before we usually got out of class.

Then in Intro to Sociology, our lecture was about 20 minutes long. We had to turn in our social biography papers, which is bad cuz I procrastinated mine till... last night and today, so it is pretty bad. But I got it done, and we were out before 4:20 :D
AND, he told me for sure that I don't have to take the final if I don't want to (and who would, given the option?). So I just get an automatic A on the final. :D

And I'm drinking a Mountain Dew right now

Rebelution

I saw someone wearing a Rebelution T-shirt today at college. I have no idea who she is or whatever, but that was still cool
