For Aaron

Okay, this is just for Aaron, who says I never post anymore, which is kinda true, but kinda not. As I reminded him, I do post on my Xanga site more frequently. So go there if you want to read more!! Anyway, little buddy, this better get me a comment! :) Just kiddin.

So life is very busy and very good. I still miss Cara a bunch. It's very weird watching all of our TV shows together and just hanging out or wishing I had someone to do something with...oh well. Life goes on, right? Jane the dog misses her too...last night she kept going over to where Cara usually sat and sniffing around like she was looking for her! It was cute and kinda sad!

School is going pretty good, I think. We got some new students this semester, which should prove to be a challenge.

This weekend is the college retreat. I'm really hoping it goes well and that lots of people come!! I know there are lots of reasons to stay away (finances, schedule, etc.) but seriously, I think it will be very beneficial to all who attend!! Plus, you can't beat the good food (Betty's cooking!) and good fun!!

I guess intramurals starts this weekend too. I have no idea what that word means or how to spell it, so I usually prefer to call it the church leagues. This year, however, it seems that we have some "non-church" teams, so that should be interesting. What it used to be was all the area churches would put together one (or two, or three...) basketball teams and every Saturday night they would get together and play basketball. Well, in recent years, we have added some new things such as an alumni team and such. This year it seems some of the alumni have formed a couple of teams, so I think that will possibly be cool. I will let you know. :) haha

Hmmm...what else. Oh yeah. How could I forget. We're kicking off 40 Days of Purpose here at the school tomorrow. And our church is doing the same thing on Sunday. So it promises to be a very busy, but hopefully profitable and challenging and rewarding 40 days!! I told someone that doing it double like this makes it seem kinda like 80 days! But I think it will be really good. I'm a small group leader in both places (church and school) so that should be fun. I seriously am really looking forward to it.

Well, the bell just rang so I gotta go. Billie is in trouble. :P

Love to all!

(Aaron better comment!!) :):):)

I would love to go to the College Retreat, but I dont have five bucks to my name, much less gas to get there. It's really sad, I really wanted to go, but...I'm really really tight for money.

This is the first I had heard about the college retreat. How did it go? I searched and searched for your blog (because of some disparaging remarks someone made on another blog), but I could never find it. But you're on my favorites now, so don't try to escape!

Christopher said...

I'm subscribed to your Xanga site now, too. I wouldn't take the disparaging remark too seriously; he's pretty liberal with them.

Christopher said...

Yeah, I do have a xanga, but there's nothing on it. About the only place I put stuff is blogs on here, pics on ringo and occasionally something on myspace. I think you are already on ringo; seems like I saw some pics from Arizona or something. I don't remember if you're on my myspace or not. If you're on there, you can add me. sumpteretc.myspace.com

He's quite right about the remarks, you know, and I agree that they shouldn't be taken seriously. At least, not if you took them personally. I really do despise HH, but please know that I was directing my delayed-adolescent-rage at my adolescent recollection of an establishment, not at you. "Eh" is the perfect response.

Very few posts about HH on blogger... Hope you didn't have to search too long for mine.

Actually, I would think that would be rather boring. About 90% of my pictures are of Elijah. When I studied missions, I was told to take lots of pictures when I first arrived because soon everything would be commonplace. I really understand that. I'm sure there are things I should be photographing, but I don't know what they are anymore. My parents are coming to visit in March. Maybe I'll just hand them my camera for a couple of weeks. They'll know the good pictures.
