Can this be happening? that's one place I can't go, it takes a hand on my shoulder to make me say no.

More to come.

The Best is Yet to Come

Last night was so wonderful, and not just because Tears for Fears was on Conan, although as we can all agree that's quite enough to make a night wonderful. But no, last nigbt was wonderful because we went up to a scenic overlook off the Blue Ridge Parkway and had worship until about 11:40. It was so wonderful, it was only eleven college students, from freshmen to seniors, just worshiping. The night was so beautiful, we just all sat on the edge of a drop off looking out over the lights of Wilkesboro about 30 miles away. The stars where brighter than I've ever seen them, yes even brighter than at the Helser's. The moon was out and the night was absolutely clear, the air was crisp and felt like Christmas. It was absolutely magical. There's just something about staring off into the far reaches of the night, at far off city lights, and the cosmos while listening to the crickets and a guitar. It was so relaxing, and it put alot of things in perspective. Oh, and a very special package came today. I am content.

It's never to late for coffee...

She said, "I'll never leave this place, unless you ask me" , "well I'd never ask you to", he said, she sighs, "I'll be here forever then".

The Verge

I think I've figured something out, I've figured out that I'm about to figure something out. That's the feeling I've had for awhile now I think, the one I havn't been able to put my finger on. Now if only I could figure out whatever it is I'm going to figure out. Oh well. I feel like life is just happening around me without me having much of anything to do with it. I feel like I'm just sort of watching it. God has really been renewing my strength lately and I'm feeling much much better than I did last week. I think what did the trick was coming home, talking to people, and all of the prayer. Thanks. Anyways, even though I feel like I'm just a spectator right now, even though I know I'm really not, I don't mind at all, I feel content to just watch. Though I'm really not just watching. Well, perhaps I'll come to some great revelation soon, but if not I don't really mind. I'm contient, though I'm not sure why.

Got to play with an M-16 assault rifle yesterday, I swear the army is insane. They're gonna let me shoot it too. I got Marshall hooked on The Postal Service, he's taken his new love for Techno to far though, if you don't believe me, listen to The Flaming Lips.

We were going to go see John Bingham this weekend, but since it would cost us $10 a night to stay in his dorm, and we'd have to be in bed by like 11, I don't think we are. I think I hate Liberty and I've never been there.

I've alienated my English class, apparently they think murdering babies is ok.

i slept from 11am till 7pm yesterday.

The showers where caked with mud this morning. At least I think it was mostly mud.

This picture paritally explains it.

College is weird.

This weekend

It's Times Like These When Silence Means Everything

This weekend was absolutly wonderful. I didn't really realize how much I needed it until it happened. All I did was spend time with my favorite people. We never did anything crazy, or super exciting, but we never needed to. It's enough that we're together. I am extremely blessed. I can't imagine how this weekend could have been anybetter, well i could have done without the cell phone thing, but oh well. And of course it wasn't long enough, time HATES me, or at least I hate it. Oh well, the times between the wonderful times make the wonderful times wonderful. Thanks to everyone who spent some time with me this weekend it was a blast. In other news, I also hate parking cops.
