Anyways, I saw something that might provide a few laughs for a couple of you.
Try searching, "(your name here) needs" on google or whatever and read the first ten or so sentences that come up.
For example: I typed in "John needs" and this is what I got...
1) John Needs Different Lights for TV Special.
2) John Needs Advice!
3) John Needs Help.
4) John needs to see.
5) John needs a "matched donor."
6) John needs a new name.
7) John needs a way to assign an item's UUID to an attribute (as opposed to
assigning a reference), so I added a new form of attribute-assignment to
parcel.xml.
8) John needs to be allowed to take risks involved in learning new things.
9) John needs to embrace 'family values' Gay or straight, immigrant or Saint.
10) John needs a good home.
Number 10 is especially true, But I think nine is my favorite.
That's all. Nothing serious but hey, at least I'm posting. |

Last night I spent time reading a great book, finding some interesting new blogs to read and not being able to sleep due to the potency of Denny's coffee.
This morning, I WOKE UP AND WENT TO BREAKFAST AND CLASSES, I went to the good friday chapel, which was one of the most genuine celebratory gatherings I have experienced at this school. It was fantastic.
I had a lunch of only chicken strips and bbq sauce as I am in the midst of testing myself for lactose intolerance. (Unfortunately, I am finding that my body considers dairy products intolerable)
My friend Jackson had a timely response to something I wrote him last night which made me happy.
I am about to go take a quick shower and then the library, then dinner, then screaming and emo.
This is a pleasant day.
(I was going to say this a "good" day, but I did not want anyone to think I was using a direct pun to be clever. I hate puns.)
And that is it for me right now. |

Well, it is now midnight and I still have yet to head off to the study room. For those of you who may see this and don't know, This has by far been my most taxing semester of college yet. Physically, mentally, emotionally and academically stressful and challenging. I still feeling as though I am failing in all of those categories but there are a few times now and then(this being one of those times)that I feel a glimmer of hope. Most often this feeling comes from a time where I hit the bottom of desperation and cry out to God in a way that is more genuine than my usual relationship with Him. But sometimes I honestly feel numb to our relationship as I have the past two days and find it hard to allow myself to call on him in that way. Tonight I was given hope by the passion and excitement that rose in me while attempting to help a friend become better equipped to share his faith and the reasons for it with his friend. While writing to him, my headache left, my thoughts were clear, I felt confidence. I believe this is because I was in a way applying what I have learned. I was pouring out some of what was within me rather than keeping it all in and remaining full.
Last week in my preaching class, Jon Cobler shared about the importance of pouring out what we get filled with here into others. If we don't we tend to just stay full imagine what you feel like on thanksgiving after the meal.You don't to move, you barely want to talk. It is nap time.
I think that same thing can happen to us mentally concerning our knowledge intake. We need to be making room for more while giving what we have to others and thus being able to be moved and used rather than just napping.
Anyways, I am in a very interesting and Extremely difficult process and phase of my life right now but I am praying that I would have more and more times that I come to end f myself and cry out for genuine help from God as well as these opportunities to empty myself of all that has been piled up over the past four years.
To those of you who are playing key roles in helping me to experience these times of growth and hope, Thank you.
so, that is that. I just felt the urge to update this thing and let you know where I am at right now.
Blessings. |

I stayed up all night finishing my correspondance couse so they would not throw me out of my class that I need this semester. This was my third attempt at doing correspondance through the school. The first two failed miserably. Even though I procrastinated beyond the last minute, the completion still shows vast improvement from only two semesters ago now. That makes me happy.
Also I just got back from my first class of this semester with the Duzik. That is going to be such a great class.
Also for any of you that didn't know, I have a really good lookin girlfriend.
see. |

01. Reply with your name and I will write something about you.
She said nothing about me
02. I will then tell you what song[s] remind me of you.
"I'll see you soon"
03. Next, I will tell you who you remind me of, celebrity/animated or otherwise.
"Meatwad - you mimic him so well"
04. Last, I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
"Complex"
05. You must then put this in your journal.
Done. |

So the last three days have been a little crazy with my most adored computer. I had to fix three things one after another. All I have to say is that Apple support team, you guys were incredible. I thank you.
On the sweet side everything looks and runs better than ever. I just have to re register everything and set up all of my preferences again. It is not that big of deal because I know more about macs now so I can choose things more wisely.
Apologies for subjecting all of you to this incredibly insightful post. But hey that is what is going on with me today.
Also, Chapel was in my opinion one of the best in my four years here. Thank you mr. quaye for listening to God on the way to school and sharing his thoughts with us. And thank you mr. leonard for giving me the truth about what I am in for and encouraging us to let God fight for us and give the battles to him. As I said, one of my favorites of my time here. |

I have changed so much in so many things this semester.
Here is an example. I now go to bed at 10:00 so I can wake up at 6:30am and do homework.
For those of you that know me, you understand what a monumental change this is.
I just wanted to share that because it is so weird.
Hey Jackson, it was wonderful to hear your voice tonight. I like you.
Also, to my lady: I had a great time with you today. Thank you for helping me to think through stuff.
One day you half enjoy a delicious chai drink.
goodnight. |

For any of you who care as well as for those that do not, L.I.F.E. Pacific College has recieved full acredidation with WASC.
I don't think this affects me very much seeing as how if i do go on for more schooling it will likely be at Seminary or something like that. Or maybe I will go to UCLA then follow in the footsteps of the man I currently live with and become a SCIENTIST.
Yes,I live with a scientist. Yes, Pancreas cells are the topic during dinner. |

Well, today I got a job.
Next tuesday i become the resident Scott Boley at Hope Chapel Del Rey. For those of you that do not know what that means: I am going to spend the summer working on graphics for my church and reading a lot of C.S. Lewis while listening to the Lost Dogs and John Michael Talbot.
Should be very challenging and enjoyable. |
