| i just realized it's been a long time since i've updated. every time i
get on this thing, i just look at what my friends wrote. i usually
forget to update myself. so, here it is. i suppose the biggest thing
i've been thinking about recently is the fact that i FINALLY ordered a
laptop! it's unbelievable. i've wanted this thing for 3 years, and now
it's on it's way to my house. next time i update, it'll be on my
beautiful new Macbook. i know, i know, you're probably tired of me
rambling on and on about Apple, but you'll just have to forgive me (and
keep listening to me ramble). moving on, i made a trip to my school a
couple weeks ago, and my dorm looks so different! in the process of
installing all new carpet, ceilings, furniture, windows, the works.
it's going to be 2398 times better than last year. i haven't been
working that much recently. my boss just han't been needing me
too much. oh well. i'd say the main reason i was working this summer
was to save up for a laptop, and now that i got it, i can breathe a
huge sigh of relief. next summer, i'll probably be saving for something
different. it's just how it goes, right? yeah. want to hear a cool
story about how great a God we serve? of course you do.
as i said earlier, i was saving this summer for a laptop. up until a
couple weeks ago, i was slightly in jeopardy of not getting it. you
see, being the smart kid i am, i realized that i also needed some money
for this coming school year to spend. at the pace i was going, to be
safe, God was going to have to intervene. i said, "God, if you want me
to get the computer, provide enough money for it and this coming year
to live on. If i don't get enough, then i'll take it as i should wait
'til later." one week ago, my dad and my brothers and i went to
illinois to help my grandma move. you see, my grandpa passed away in
november of '05, and my g'ma is selling their house, 'cuz the govenment
wants to blow it up and build a highway right where it is. all said and
done, she got a good bit of money, and she doesn't need near all of it.
so she sat me down and said she was giving me part of my inheritance
money. oh my gosh! could it be? now, don't go thinking i'm a
billionaire. she's not THAT rich. but it was a huge blessing, and she
asked if i had any needs or things i was saving for, and told her about
the computer and such. so basically i got enough money to get the
computer, and then some. i was just shocked at God, and how much He
rewards people who just put their trust in Him. he did the same thing
many times during school. i've learned whole-heartedly that i have no
need to worry.
so that's the big story as of recently. oh, and i'm probably going to
North Carolina in a week and a half. that's exciting! you say. what the
heck does that have to do with me?
i'm sorry. it has nothing to do with you. love!

| so i went to the Warped Tour this past friday, and let me tell you. that was fun. i was slightly
dissapointed in the selection of bands, but overall it was a success.
pretty much any rock music festival is a time, with the possible
exception of Ozzfest. i've heard shady things about that. *raises hand*
can i recommend a movie? you should check out "Unleashed". it's rated R
for violence and language mostly, but it's different than most movies,
in that it actually has a good point, and it's really emotional in a
sense. plus it has Jet Li in it. reason enough, right? also, here's my
music recommendation for this post. a band named Fair has an album
entitled "The Best Worst-Case Senario", and it's phenomonal. EXTREMELY
well-crafted songs. i could listen to this cd over and over and over. i
don't say that lightly, either. i HIGHLY suggest you go here and listen to them.
have you ever wondered if you're doing what God wants you to be doing?
think about it for a minute. take my case, for example. i'm going to a
private college for 4 years, and i (obviously) don't have $60,000 to
just pay for it. therefore, i must come up with it if i want to return.
we're working on it, but man. that's alot of money. i have to be SURE
God wants me there, right? as of now, i can't think of anywhere else i
would realistically go right now, but geez. it still makes me wonder.
i'm not going to lie, having 3 sibling and yourself has it's drawbacks
sometimes. of course, the pros WAY outway the cons, but.........i've
been reading Daniel lately. it's real solid.
i'm the REAL batman.
look at that hair. should i grow it back?
this is Billy Corgan. he is my ultimate music hero. it is now official:
after they disbanded 5 years ago, Billy Corgan in reuniting the
Smashing Pumpkins, and they're recorded a new album in the very near
future. scarcely has news excited me
more..........................................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| if you read that title on your first try, then good job, you're a
better person than i am. so what's up, huh? well, today i massively got
sunburnt. no, you don't understand. as i'm sitting here typing, my back
is bUrNiNg alive. i seriously sting, just not moving. it's nuts. and i
have work to thank for this. my grandma said hard physical work builds
character. grrrr............we'll see. i suppose so. i really don't
have much to post on, so i think i might put on my thinking hat for a
bit and share some deep, intellectual thoughts with My Fellow
Americans. however, if you have a Myspace, go add me. here's the link. ch-ch-check me out. oooooooh!!!! wait, did that come across kinda.......?......hmmm.
Theory #1: The human body strives to maintain the same shower-water temperature everytime he/she takes a shower.
For example, if the human is 65 degrees, and the perfect body
temperature is 80 degrees, then the human will turn the shower to 95 to
maintain the correct temperature. If the human is 105 degrees, then the
human will turn the water to 55 degrees, etc. If this theory is correct
(which i believe it is), then it effectively rules out the notion of
taking a cold shower, or a nice, hot shower. Every shower would feel exactly the same to the human.
Theory #2: Women think differently than men. I need not explain.......
Theory #3: The guitar is a special gift from God to humans. I
believe the guitar is an object which was conceived in heaven,
dismissed as being too satanic, and tossed in the Giant Mistake Heap.
one day, an angel happened to glance at the heap on his way to Daily
Worship, and decided to accept a Royal Tardy in exchange for a couple
minutes to examine this peculiar object. once he polished it off, he
began to lightly strum it. "wow!" he thought. "this object creates an
amazing sound! i think i'll Worship today with it!" he then procceded
to write a song for his Master, and presented it at the Open Mike
portion of Daily Worship. God was very impressed, and divinely ordained
it as "The Most Perfect Instrument Every Created". it was then shipped
to Earth in the mind of........someone.........who built it at God's
command (Noah's Ark, anyone?).
i believe these 3 Theories to be absolutely true. comment if you agree with any or all of them.

| that's the title of the E.P. that my boss' son gave me today. he's a
rapper, and he's pretty cool. i actually haven't listened to it yet.
right now i'm listening to The Retail Age
(go to this link and listen to "Stephanie Lynn"....it is so good),
which is a band at my school.....one of the few. they're really, really
good. someday i'll start my own band at Cedarville, and melt their
faces with sick shredding and amazing axe-wielding powers.
so i thought i should update on what's been shakin' with me recently.
i've been working a good bit, about 30-35 hours a week. i get tuesdays
off, or else it'd be a full-time job. it basically is. i still do
landscaping. today i mulched all day, literally. from 10-4, with a half
hour lunch break. my neck hurts. real bad. but it all turned out
alright. tonight i hung out with some friends, and i enjoy doing that,
because i've been working alot, and it's tough to see them as much as i
want to. so God rewarded me with that tonight. honestly, the main
reason i'm working this summer is to buy this.
i'm determined to save up and get it. if you were too lazy to click on
the link, then you'll forever wonder what i'm talking about. suckers.
today i was at my brother's baseball game, and i was thinking: as much
as we hear about all the bad things that happen on a daily basis in the
world, things aren't as bad as they seem. i was watching families laugh
and share the simple pleasure of a baseball game at a park on a pretty
evening. honestly, it was one of the most beautiful things i've seen in
quite awhile.
family is so important. i've come to realize that more than ever.
sometimes i wish i had an older sibling to look up to and ask advice
from. i suppose that's what my parents are for. they do quite a good
job at that. i had a good time talking to them last night. my dad is
real wise, and my mom is funny.
Step your game up.
