That was it...she was gone. Amber walked through that security gate, and she was truly in the hands of Christ. Even though I was crying like a girl, I was happy that finally we would have an opportunity to be alone with Christ. It was then that I turned around and stared at the exit door of the airport. There waiting for me outside was Jesus Christ with open arms. He was smiling even though I was crying. He said, "I've been longing for this moment for so long. It's me and you. I'm going to cleanse your wound, and I'm going to give you the plans I have for you. It may hurt at first, but in the end I will bless you beyond imagination." Now, I cried the rest of the day! LOL! But the pain I felt was a different pain. It was the pain of peace. I think so many people are afraid to enter that narrow gate with Christ because of the fear of discovering the wound that they have again. I know my wound has effected my life drastically. When I say wound I mean anything from your past that has blocked off the intentions God has for you. I can tell you though that the pain I felt yesterday was so much different. I'm starting to see Christ in places I never saw Him before. I'm lonely, but God intended for me to be right now. Sure he's put people in my life, but for once it's my Daddy who I'm leaning on. What is your wound? Are you afraid of the pain? Would you be willing to look at that wound again so that God could cleanse it? God has wonderful plans for those who recognize that Christ is worthy of every aspect of their lives even when they're lonely. Is Christ calling out to you?
Those whose hope is in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not be faint! -Isaiah 40:31
....the call of life is intimacy with our Father. The question is will we do whatever it takes to become who he promises to form us into? Will we realize what really matters? Break me Father until there's nothing but you in me. That's all I want....
-Michael

My Grandmommy is the sweetest lady and most special person in my life ever and will always remain to be.I dont know what I would do without her.She's the one person that I couldnt imagine life without.She's my very best friend and hero.She gives so much and never once thinks about herself.She just always puts others first.When she prays she kneels down by her bed on her hands and knee's and prays her heart out.She's such a strong loving christian.I go and visit her up the street at least once or twice a month if not more.She's the only one I can really pore my heart out to besides God himself.I love my Grandma so much.

Dear Friends,

Sorry about that post I left yesterday. Satan was really having a field day with my emotions. I know that this is where I belong. I'm still not fully sure why, but this is the place that God wants me. Believe me, if it were up to me I would come back home, but the simple fact is that it is not, and of that I am eternally greatfull.

Classes are going well. I made a 100 on a test that most everyone else made between an 80 and a 90 on. And that was my honors class, all honors students have to take it. I know what you're thinking, it's because I'm at Martin and there are no truly intelligent people here. Think again. I have found more brilliance in my classmates here than anywhere in the past. That is, more people who are brilliant. Anyway, I hope that I am able to keep up the trend, and I hope that all of you guys are doing well also.

I miss ya'll. I'll be sure to talk to you later. Oh, and please keep me in your prayers, I have a feeling Satan isn't done with me yet.

Love In Christ,
Zach

This Sunday at 4pm The Diversion Youth Group will scrimmage the Alpha Omega Flag Football Team. The next three Sundays that follow will be real games between the two teams.

Rules of the Flag Football game.

1)Rushers CAN NOT use there hands in pursuing the QB. Likewise, Blockers CAN NOT use thier hands to block for the QB...or their hips and feet. Blockers must have thier arms behind their back. The key is to keep your feet moving.

2) Once the football is caught the receiver must extend the football out in front of himself. Tucking the football is illegal as it is considered flag guarding. Flag guarding is where you place the football and/or your arms beside your flag to prohibit a defender from pulling your flag. Again, this is bad. Don't do it. Illegal it is, says, Yoda.

3)You can rush the QB as many times as you want. There are no "5 Mississippi's."

4) There is NO TACKLING, PUSHING, OR SHOVING. Any such offense will be dealt with swiftly by a very disenchanted and peeved, Clint Nadeau.

5) Bad attittudes and cry babying will not be allowed. Leave them at home with any alcoholic beverages and tobacco products you might indulge in...you better not be using that poo-poo tasting stuff!

6) In the event of a punt situation. The team that is punting can not move while the punter is punting. Any movement will result in a penalty. The punter must stand behind the line of guys on his team.

6)The Diversion Youth group team will play all members of their team. Any one who comes to play will play.

7) Read Rule 5 again...because I know somebody will not follow it.

8) You can use motion plays, reverses, hand-offs, laterals, and pitches to move your offense. No forward laterals. The QB can rush as many times as he wants.

9)Once the ball touches the ground in any situation it is DEAD. There are no fumbles.

10) We will play until the sunlight runs out or Jesus comes back.

11)Above all else, representing Jesus is why we are playing. For 3 months now Guys Rec. has been designed to help you guys have a Christ-like attitiude as you play sports. Sunday will show who "got it" and "who didn't." Any demonstration of a poor attitiude will not only be very embarrassing for you and humilating but also a good way to willing wipe Jesus Christ's Name in the sewer. Pray now that everyone will display a Christ-like attitude. Don't be "that guy" thatbreaks this rule.

If there are any questions ask me Sunday mornning. May I suggest that you who read this from the youth group to pick a captin. The captin will call the plays and keep the order of the team. Remember ENCOURAGEMENT is the name of the game and the best play to call every time. Feel free to invite your parents. No pets please because doggie ka-ka on the bottom of cleats does compliment the carpet in my apartment...Plus, it smells like...well, dog stuff. And we all hate the smell of that!

I'm excited to play Sunday. Our team needs the practice because we are a little rusty. Have an awesome weekend and see y'all at Chris's wedding.

Fighting the Good Fight of Faith,

Clint

i'm extremely bored
i want to go bowling.

lol. if u read my last comment and thought i had a crush on someone, lol, well u were just a little wrong, lol. My friend and i saw different views on something, and we were in a pretty big arguement, but now we are talking again, lol. so thats what that means, and yea!!!!!! today is starting fall break!!!ooooo, my family and schaller are going fishing at fall creek falls in a fisherman's cabin. o man, im ganna get a huge fish.!!!!

today we got back from our school retreat which was pretty awesome. it was a small group of people, but sometimes the smaller groups are the ones with the better focus. lots of good singin and a great lesson from Skid as well as some great discussion with Brett.

so i saw that some of you people were doing that political survey thing that showed you what you were and such, so i decided to partake in the fun.

they told me that i was a Strong Republican, surprise surprise, and when i looked at the little chart thing, it showed that i was right next to being a facist, which is pretty cool, because facism is a cool way for government to go, if you are in power, and don't let the power go to your head, but that usually doesn't happen and you end up using marketing propaganda genius to turn a whole country against one people group and then you end up making bone headed military moves and then other countries get mad and come beat you up and, but i digress...

echoesflow tonight at rocketown, give me a call if you want to go, i think me and justin vance and some other folk are gonna get a carpool system thing together as not to waste the ever precious gas

"From day one I talked about getting out
But not forgetting about
How my worst fears are letting out
He said why put a new address
On the same old loneliness
When breathing just passes the time
Until we all just get old and die
Now talking's just a waste of breath
& living's just a waste of death
& why put a new address
On the same old loneliness
& this is you and me
& me and you
Until we've got nothing left"

I thought that when I got to college everything was supposed to change. Now that I have been up here for a little while all I can see are the similarities between the real world and all the things I had to go through in high school. The only differences are that I have to drive and waste my gas to go places, I have to pay for my food, and I don't have a curfew, that's the best part. You have to worry about time management and whether or not you will sleep through your 8 am class or even your 11:15. But the things that I have to hold on to are all of the things that God taught me in high school. Yes he continues to teach me and guide me but my character has already been determined by what I did in high school. Yes as a colege student I have more freedom but I also have a higher price to pay for my lack of character. Hasta la victoria siempre.

I’ll love everything about her! From the way her smile stretches across her face, to the way her shoulders curve. From the way she looks while she’s sleeping, to her grumpy mood when she wakes up. Every little thing that makes her who she is, that’s what I’ll fall for.

Lately, for some reason, I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what “she should be”. What will my wife be like? Where this came from, I’m not really sure. Maybe it’s just where I am.

Sometimes when I stop, I think about her. This all never crossed my mind much until this summer. Some time ago I found myself in a place I really didn’t want to be. Heart-broken and scared of what I really needed to do, I knew it was time for some things to change. God was screaming to let him be number one, but at the time, someone else filled the spot. So I spent my time since then learning who God was, both in my life and in the lives of others. I knew him, but I had to fall in love with him. I had to get to know him on that personal level. So, needless to say, my focus was and is completely on him and not on dating or anything of the sort. Lately though, I started to wonder when that “focus” will include someone else.

I know before you can decide on what “she/he should be”, you have to fall in love with the one who sculpted them, the one who designed their every fingerprint, their every emotion, and every corner of their heart. To truly understand what human love can be you have to learn to truly love the one who designed them to fall in love with you.

I know she is there. Hopefully, she is praying for me, just as I pray for her. Maybe she even thinks about me when she stops to look at the stars too. In the mean time it’s my responsibility to act in a way that would make her proud and would show her I love her. After all, actions do speak louder than words. I don’t want to have to apologize for my past one day.

One day I’ll look at her and I’ll know. One day I’ll live at rest, at position number two, in someone else’s life. I’ll know that He sculpted her for me. Ill finally see that He designed her hand to perfectly fit in mine.

I look forward to building memories with her. I’ll look forward to the slow dances, weird inside jokes, and long conversations. I look forward to finally realizing that she’s the one I want in the rocking chair that’s right beside me on the front porch when we’re ninety. When we’ve lived life to the fullest and now all we have to do is sit there and reminisce, she’s the one I want to talk to.

I’m very content with Jesus though. He is truly, all I need. The point of life is to become someone, not to find someone. Who you become last through eternity, who you find does not. In the end, only one relationship matters.

there has been no shortage of beautiful days lately. that is for sure. God's creation is gorgeous.

here is a quote from a card i bought in hillsboro village the other day: "you're the strangest person i ever met, she said & i said you too & we decided we'd know each other a long time."

sometimes i think the people that live above me wrestle. sometimes it sounds like they're going to fall through the roof. one of these days they just might. i don't think i'd be too surprised

i slept through the night last night. no parties outside my window, either that or i slept through it. praise God. i needed the sleep.

my favorite children's book right now is olivia. read it. oh yeah, and i also like the giving tree.

love you all. be sweet.
O "i see skies of blue...."

so... the retreat was absolutely amazing. The the theme was "Who Am I?" the age old question. Skid came up and talked to us and it was by far the best lesson I've ever heard from him. God was truly speaking thru him last night and I felt like he was talking directly to me. Lately I've been so confused as to what direction my life is suppose to be going and the brief hours I spent at short mt. were ones I cannot forget. I became aware of my spiritual gifts and what role I must play in God's kingdom. I came to numerous realizations of what I should do with the brief time I have here. Everything I do and I say must reflect my God. I must take this time to form as many relationships as possible. I must act in such a way that everyone around me can't help but see Christ in me. Who am I? I am God's...

Or whatever color you are.

Anyhow...

Interesting day. Let me start with yesterday afternoon. I found out that I was being relocated from honors to human sciences for my scholarship work because the honors college secretary LIED and said that I never do my work and I spend all my time in my mom's office talking to her. NOT TRUE!

That hurt a lot. A WHOLE lot. I'm not used to not being liked, or lied to, and especially not by an adult!

I went to the human sciences department this morning to talk to them about switching over and they were so nice. I'm so glad I'll be working there instead.

So my school day was pretty good.

Then after school (and lunch with my mom at McAlister's where I saw Becky) I had many driving around- turning at all the wrong places journey. I was going to stop by parking services on my way to Wal-Mart, but I turned into the wrong place. Then I couldn't figure out the right place to go from where I was so I gave up. So then I went to Wal-Mart, but not without making a wrong turn, and when I got there, my bladder was about to explode so I went into Dairy Queen. I couldn't figure out how to lock the door, and some girl opened the door on me. And then I made it to the Wal-Mart gas station, just to learn that despite what "low" price they supposedly had yesterday, today their gas was 2.99, just like it is everywhere else in town. All the trouble I could have saved if I had known...

Whew... what a time all that was. I'm glad it's the weekend.

Yesterday evening my J-group girls sang me happy birthday, and they even had a cake and a card for me! It was so sweet!

Tonight: Shopping!
Tomorrow: Chris and Emily's wedding!

if you havent read this, you need to. because its hillarious.

http://www.livejournal.com/community/m15m/6231.html#cutid1

The thing we did at school today was fun, the weather was really nice. I went shopping with Angela and Beth afterward, it was good. Angela gave me this book (in German) about Germany's music stuff and like 200 CD's. (I love her!) Later, we went to starbucks to get drinks...and I ended up getting an iced green-tea and a free latte...which worked out well for me.

We have a game tonight against Smyrna. Amy and I are going to decide what to dress like for "twin day" even though she has a twin...but we can be triplets.

Haha.

I miss Amy!

What do I do
when the time is done
when we part ways
and it all ends?

What do I do
when you are gone
when things all stop
and nothing is the same?

What do I do
when everything
seems to crash down around me
and I can't even think?

What do I do
now that I'm so
since you aren't here to find me
and I'm all numb inside?

What do I do
with you so far away
now that I'm missing you
and I'm so confused?

Tell me what to do
because I just don't know.
I used to have it figured out,
but not anymore.

Help me, love, please.
Tell me what do I do.

(There are a few people who will get this and a few who won't.)

Hey guys, just needed to feel loved by my B'oro buddies!!! I am having a hard time of it in london, my friend who I was supposed to meet here is not going to be able to meet up with me till tomorow night, and so I have all day tomorow to be all alone,and while that may sound like lots of fun you know exploring a new city, by yourself it is not the greatest. I don't know where to go or which train to get on, and it is just no fun by yourself...and on top of that I have the flu, and I feel like crap, I am staying in a really cool hostel, but once again it is no fun all alone, it is rather scarry to be honest. I have been crying all day(partly because I haven't slept in 2 days) causeI am SO HOMESICK... I miss YOU!!!

When the house lights dimmed and the concert

was about to begin, the mother returned to

her seat and discovered that the child was missing
Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights

focused on the impressive Steinway on stage.

In horror, the mother saw her little
boy sitting at the keyboard, innocently picking out

"Twinkle,Twinkle Little Star."

At that moment, the great piano master made his entrance, quickly moved to the piano, and

whispered in the boy's ear,

"Don't quit.""Keep playing."

Then, leaning over, Paderewski reached

down with his left hand and began filling

in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached

around to the other side of the child,

and he added a running obbligato.

Together, the old master and the young novice

transformed what could have been a frightening situation into a wonderfully creative experience.

The audience was so mesmerized that they couldn't recall what else the great master played.

Only the classic,

" Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star."

Perhaps that's the way it is with God.

What we can accomplish on
our own is hardly noteworthy.

We try our best, but the results aren't always

graceful flowing music. However, with the

hand of the Master, our life's

work can truly be beautiful.

The next time you set out to accomplish great feats,

listen carefully. You may hear the voice of the

Master, whispering in your ear,
"Don't quit." "Keep playing."

May you feel His arms around you and

know that His hands are there, helping you

turn your feeble attempts into true masterpieces.

Remember, God doesn't seem to

call the equipped, rather, He equips the 'called.'
Life is more accurately measured by the lives you touch than by the things you acquire.

hmmm so addie got this site for me because im completly computer retarded ya so she might be movin to st. louis if she does i'll die! i heart u addie baker

Well, I made the trek all the way back to my hometown of Murfreesboro last night. My flight go delayed almost 4 hours, so I was a little later than I thought I would be. It is good to see my life as it was a little over four months ago.

I will be in town until Tuesday and then head back to the big city.

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
~Proverbs 31:30

~Rachel~

Came on after class today...I love this movie, almost. My major beef is that Tristan is killed, and this is complete crap! I do like the different perspective though.

There are 48 people in Latin America class...10 made As on the first test we took...I wonder what I made....MWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!!!

My art teacher dropped a bomb on us this morning...she's going to start taking roll next week! Dah!!! Now I have to go to class. It's good though...now I'll go. I've got that senioritis I guess...If I don't have to, I ain't gonna.

2 things I love:

One of the rare As on a test!

Hugs from pretty girls early in the morning!

yay-yuh.

the heefus

Even though it was Monday night....they never cease to amaze me! I love football...maybe a little bit too much. I am so obsessed with the Vols that I don't even show support for MTSU. Well Clausen played and amazing second half. It was OBVIOUS that it wasn't Ainge's night. But theres more games, and more chances for him to prove himself....whether he does it or not is a different story. Tomorrow they play Ole Miss, thats the first game I'm gonna miss due to WORK! Urghhh! But me and my new best friend Schuylar are going to the UT vs Vandy game! Can't wait...Vandy is doing suprisingly well this season...but you know whose gonna come on top! Well this whole college life is going great....got papers due every week but its definitely something I enjoy. Its starting to get HELLA cold outside...I'm surprised. Well I'm gonna stick to this and facebook from now on..LOVE YA'LL!

*Brit

Okay, so i finally broke down and got a phusebox but that's just because i can get to it from school. everything on xanga will be here. i'll just copy and paste everything lol.

Have you ever just realized that you have taken on way too much and that life is just crashing around you. You find that you have to schedule outings with your friends roughly 3 weeks in advance and there is only one night a week that you have open, so you end up disappointing people because you can't fit them in until sometime in Novemeber. But not to fear, as of right now, my 2006 calendar is wide open, but i can only fill it in in pencil as I do not know where i will be come january. Anyways, lack of sleep, food and a whole bunch of crap that i'm dealing with leads me to my sarcastically happy life.

- Daniel

Hey...life is good. I'm in a good mood. Last night was good...in the end. I met *her*...but...trying to be okay with it all. Actually she' seems sweet. I'm going home tonight...er...today. YAY! Whoo....just have to figure out how to get my laptop home. I don't have a suitcase or anything...this should be interesting and fun. Hmmmm....

Well, all, I shall end this bloggy thing. Giong to read a book for history, like a good little angel that I am. () : ) SEE?! I think that made the angel face. Anyway...

BYE!

Rachel and I are eating rice cakes. They are yummy. Mrs. James is looking around for a movie to watch. I can't wait till we get out today (at 12:00!). I'm pro'lly going to sit around at home and play on the computer and listen to music.
Tootles!

ever stop to think what that actually means?

wow.
[God's amazing]

I'm now Reverend Nathanael Robert Tallman... at least according to the Universal Life Church.

In other news, the stars were so clear last night! Work was busy. I was setting up stuff for Chris and Emily's wedding. Saturday night, I get to tear it all down and set up for Sunday morning too! Woo hoo!

After work, I went up on the roof for about half an hour just watching the stars. It was amazing. I saw two shooting stars as well. Does that mean that my wishes cancel each other or do they multiply? Oh well. Doesn't matter much anyways, right?

i haven't been this happy in a long time... probably like 2 months. wonderful feeling.

and the stars were amazing tonight!!! what is it about the fall and winter months that make the stars even prettier?

i find it funny that this time yesterday morning i was up...

and now i am going to bed all happy and stuff...

Hey, just in case you were wondering... I'm cooler than you.

Went to the Predators game today [against Atlanta Thrashers.]  We lost.  We lost like WOAH.  [5-2]  For a while Susan and I suspected that Jordin Tootoo had gotten sent back to Miluwakee to play another season in the AHL because he didn't play but his name wasn't on the scratch list.  But that's okay. 

Susan and I were like, "This is crap."  So we left early.  We had Daelin [Susan's son] with us in his stroller, so we had to walk around the elevators.  The first one that came was full.  So we waited.  And waited.  And waited some more.  Finally, I said, "Holy crap.  There's only four freakin' floors in this building.  How can it possibly take an elevator this long?"

An elevator finally arrived.  The door opened.  And my I said a very rude word in my brain.  Several of them, in fact.  Standing in the back of the elevator in this gorgeous pinstripe suit... was Jordin Tootoo.

Yes, that would be that sexy beast right there.

I tried to not do the crazy-stalker-fan-girl thing.  It was very hard, to be honest.  I was wearing my jersey, my most obvious piece of I'm-a-crazy-stalker-fan-girl-evidence, so I was trying to be discreet.  However, he saw I was wearing it and he looked at the sleeve to check the number.

"I like your jersey."

*shudder*

Ooookay, so maybe I'm the only person in the world who thinks a thick Canadian accent is sexy.  Shut up.

Anyways, I responded with the oh-so-witty, "Yeah, I don't know whose it is, just some guy or another..."

HE LAUGHED!  He thought my joke was funny!

Alrighty.  Friday last week:  I bump into him [physically] while he's taking donations in the lobby.  Less than a week later, I happen to be about 5 inches away from him in an elevator.  He compliments my jersey.  Pretty sure that no matter how shy and embarassed I was, there was no way I could ignore a direct sign from GOD.

*dances*

I got my jersey signed!!!

What's great about it, though, is that it's an old jersey - it has the number 55 on it.  He plays under number 14 now.  He signed the 55 jersey, "Jordin Tootoo #14."

It makes me laugh.

Mmmmmm....

Who cares if we lost like woah?

HEY!!!! What's up ya'll!? Man, oh man! I can't believe I'm here!! It's awesome, but hot! lol! Go figure that Hawaii would be hot! But anyways, ya'll keep me in your prayers! The home sickness, goes in and out! And I have awesome girls in my room! They're so sweet! And I even had a moment were I cried today with them and they supported me! It's awesome!! I can't wait to get to know these girls more! And I love it because one or two of the girls is girly...like me! :D ha! Anyways! Keep me in your prayers, please! I love ya'll so much! And I already miss all of ya'll! Take care and I hope to hear from ya'll soon!!

yay tomorrow will be cool patriot parade then D and thyler and kael are comin over to watch some movies and hang out itll be fun and maybe chinese yummmm game tonight get to see lavergnes edward scissor hands show itll be cool so yay

- cool squared

How do I get out of here
Where do I fit in?
Though the world is torn and shaken
Even if your heart is breakin'
It's waiting for you to awaken
And someday you will-
Learn to be still
Learn to be still

haha so i found out today that i almost got voted off the island before i was born....weird....

Well it's a lonely road that you have chosen

Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore

And it's a long time since your heart was frozen

Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore

For a moment your eyes open and you know

All the things I ever wanted you to know

I don't know you, and I don't want to

Till the moment your eyes open and you know


That it's a lonely place that you have run to

Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore

And it's a lonely end that you will come to

Morning comes and you don't want to know me anymore


For a moment your eyes open and you know

All the things I ever wanted you to know

I don't know you, and I don't want to

Till the moment your eyes open and you know


For a moment your eyes open and you know

All the things I ever wanted you to know

I don't know you, and I don't want to

Till the moment your eyes open and you know

do ya ever have one of those weeks were everything goes wrong? and ya just kinda sit back and wonder what you're really doing here? well, this past week was certainly NOT one of those weeks for me!

dude, this week has been wonderful. it was refreshing to not be in nursery or be teaching a bible study on sunday. besides running around getting permission slips copied on a broken copier and things like that, i was able to just enjoy being at church. the after school program on monday stretched me a bit. i realized that even though the ladies don't have any real discipline problems, i still can't run the whole thing by myself. i need help! and then tuesday and wednesday were both wonderfully smooth days for the after school program. a few of the highlights:

*the ladies are starting to embrace the devotion time and have a ton of questions
*angel listened to christian music and loved it
*a 30 minute french lesson with a few of the ladies that didn't have homework-and are actually taking french
*we've established some order, as far as schedule and discipline go

and then today-training was alright. but that whole-not being worth anything for a couple of hours after lunch-really kicked in and i got quite bored. but whatever, all is good. and then had the opportunity to get things accomplished for the concert series.

DEC 3 @ 6PM-first concert at graffiti...with focus definitely coming. the other artists are still being decided on. and we've got a show cookin up for sometime in march. and then a festival/block party type of thing for june with a lot of different artists.

God is good...i could've just said that at the beginning and then not have to write anything else.

I've been thinking alot lately about going through with it and cutting my hair..

I've got a haircut on October 13 so I've got until then to decide.

I want everyone's opinion. I don't even care if you know me or not..just give me something, anything!

Yes?

No?

The sideburns might even go..

Ok, I took it a little too far..but my hair is getting out of control as you can plainly see in the picture..

HELP! It's about to eat my whole head!

I found out a new fact about myself tonight...When I have a bad day I love to sing.

I got home and asked myself "Why be in a bad mood?" I HAVE AN AMAZING LIFE....no need to be down.

Sorry for being such a yucky person today. haha I dont need to do that!

I went from healthy to sick starting last nite at 6.

I feel feverish and my nose is as stuffed as a thanksgiving turkey.
I hope I dont have to miss school.( make-up work is killer)
Today wasnt so bad.
Except for the sick thing.

i have a spanish quiz again tommorow, i havent studied for it yet. oh well.

this weekend should be good. got the ol' miss game to go to. we're 23 rows from the field. the georgia game should be good too, we're 5 rows from the field... hot bizzle

ok, so, you know that commercial with the adorable old lady whos sitting at a table. and its set perfect, and shes made a nice meal, and obviously put time and effort into it. and she is sitting there by herself and the mysterious man says "just tell your grandma you blew of the dinner plans you made with her because you were stoned"


you know which one i'm talkin about?

well, it makes me sad. i don't do drugs, but i'm always like "awww oymyfrickingosh thats sad"

someone buy her a car or something.

So here it is.
Our first post.

The Luckiest
by Ben Folds

I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here

And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face?
Now I see it everyday
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

What if I'd been born fifty years before you
In a house on a street where you lived?
Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike
Would I know?

And in a white sea of eyes
I see one pair that I recognize
And I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties
And one day passed away in his sleep
And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days
And passed away

I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you that I know
we belong
That I know

That I am
I am
I am
The luckiest

So I went by Riverdale this afternoon to have Staats check on my car bc it is still giving me trouble I really dont think those guys fixed it at all, but anyways I had alot of fun going back down there I know this is weird to say but I really miss highschool, I personally loved highschool and didnt mind going all day to class bc you were there with people you knew. But I enjoyed talking to one of my guy friends from last year he is such a doll and told me he would change my oil for me tomorrow if I brought it back so thats probably what I will do and go see my Nursery School Teacher to while Im there, gah I miss her and the kids!! oh well time to go get ready for bed Im pooped! and YAY for being off tomorrow night!! Im goin to the haunted woods with some people I work with Im super pumped yet super terrified at the same time wish me luck lol!!

P.S I dont know what I would do without you Rachel I love you!!!!

stephen makes me laugh. man. do you ever have those days/weeks/months where your friends just get on your last nerve? i really feel that God is changing my heart towards some of my friends, and breaking some friendships. i dunno. but it's all for the best. life's goin pretty good. we might be moving, which is random. i feel like this is really gonna be a year of big changes for me. i'm really doing a lot better in my walk, and i'm really excited about some of the things i'm seeing happen. i'm really starting to learn the power of prayer. and for the first time in a while, i can say that i feel like i'm growing. anyways, the week so far has been really good. i was totally relishing the cool crispness of today. i love fall. but something about fall seems to cultivate melancholy in me. i'm not sure what it is. but i just find myself so often in a pensive mood and thinking about what life would be like with Bruce here. But then i realize that i probably wouldn't have come nearly this far. And that would be through no fault of his. But i would have continued to lean on him rather than God. and while i really do miss having a true best friend (and bear with me cause i know this might sound corny), i'm really starting to discover that Jesus really can be that kind of a friend. and i'm so glad to have Bruce as an example, so that i can weed out the friends that aren't good for me. anyways. life's treatin me pretty well. but may i just say, that i am so tired of fake people. as my mom said today, that's one of the horribly wrong things about my generation. we all seem to put our trust and energies into things that are fake. i was waiting in line for lunch, and i just stood there, solitary in the teeming mass, and watched. so many fake people. and i don't mean that in the "you're shallow/fake because you wear abercrombie" kinda way. i mean people that go through their entire lives wearing this mask (sorry for the emo reference) because they are so afraid that if people see them as they really are, that no one would love them. and that is such a lie. you'll probably take this the wrong way, but i'm so glad that i have managed all my life to just be "Cari", complete with flaws and good qualities. sure, not everyone loves me to death, but at least i know that the people i love love me for me. i'm so tired of these people who put up a front and try so hard, and then accuse me of trying too hard. i am my own individual, and yet people still care to be my friend, even though i'm fat, or i don't wear nice clothes all the time, or don't have a lot of money, or don't cater to their whims, or step on eggshells around them. i can just be me, and that is the most rewarding feeling in the world. and it breaks my heart to see people believing the lies that Satan feeds them. i just wish that people could understand how much they are loved, regardless of their flaws. anyways. i'm really not angry. i'm just broken for the people i know. i love ya'll regardless, and just know that. you don't realize how amazing people are and how much you want to tell them that until it's too late. never take it for granted.---Cari

latin is definately the best class ever. way better than spanish.

Hey everyone,


9.26.05
We have some exciting news! We have a new puppy! Her name is Kyleigh (pronounced ky-lee)and she is an 8 week old beagle puppy. We picked her up on Friday, so the last few days have been crazy trying to train her, get her adjusted to her new home, and take care of her. She likes to howl around 3 a.m. and chew on shoes.

In other news, The Well is going strong. We are through our third week of weekly gatherings and halfway through our teaching series, "what is love?" It's been a lot of fun and hard work. The Lord is certainly blessing it as we recently have seen two Well attendees give their life to the Lord. We have also have seen a core group of people get excited about spiritual transformation of a community(s) around them. Last week, we took the first step in reaching out as we handed out about 750 "rave cards" to students at Felician College nearby. If nothing else was gained, our students are beginning to catch a vision for what we see here in NJ.

Angela is into her fourth week as a 1st grade teacher and going strong. Please pray that she would get some rest before long. Our biggest prayer request right now is just for our time and energy. It seems that the busiest time of my week is Saturday and Sunday and hers is the rest of the week and so it is hard for her to recoop on the weekends like other teachers.

To add to the time strain, I began seminary classes about two weeks ago and am already behind. Fortunately, my self-paced online class is taking fall break so there are no new assignments this week, so i can use the next week to play catch up.

We love you guys. Thank you for your commitment to our ministry and our lives. We know that God is answering prayers for us and for this place and for our church.

For His glory,

justin and angela

I may be the last Alias fan on this planet but maybe there is one person out there feeling my pain.

They did it... They killed of the man who will one day be my husband. THey killed off Vaughn, the soon to be dad of little Isabelle Bristow Vaughn. Ok so I don't think he's really dead... but if he is... then I will seriously be heart broken... of course that does free up Micheal Vartan to move to NYC and meet me.

Aright so i know I have already writen today but I need any advice I can get on this.... I am doing a sermon in my communicating the gospel class and I have been given the text Mark 1:40-45. So I was wondering if yall had any good illustrations, insights, or just somthing small that I might could use. Anything that just jumps out to you or is odd to you could be helpful too. Basicly all that said, anything yall say will be helpful. If you nothing comes to you, no big deal. Thanks for the input. Here is the verses:
Mark 1:40-45

40 A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, "If you are willing, you can make me clean."

41 Filled with compassion, Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. "I am willing," he said. "Be clean!" 42 Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cured.

43 Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning: 44 "See that you don't tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them." 45 Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.
(from New International Version)

Thanks

well today was ok, even though i failed my english test. finally, today was the last official day of school before fall break. and another thing, its amazing, and im soooooo happy it finally happened, me and someone are finally talking, well a little bit. if u dont believe it, then u should.lol but yea its cool. i cant wait to go fishing now over fall break, its ganna be awesome.

sorry guys that's it's been so long sinve i last updated i have just been soooo busy.it's been great though so yeah i love it.

well im going to get off of here if you need me most of you know where to find and how to contact me.....talk to you all later!
Love you All
God Bless!
Leah

only 36 more hours?
ahh i cant wait for florida,

I walked around campus today thinking "Is this really my life?"
Strange.
I want to come home.
Can I come home?
Please?

I was taking stock of my blessings today. That always makes for a good day...and I realized how much I love the God who brought me Nathan. As much as I love the man, my love for the Lord is greater. He gave Nate the same heart as me, and then ordered our steps so that we would meet. That alone would never have happened in the world's way of doing things.

Over the past three months God has grown the vision of a new church within me. With sheep who want to taste the fullness of God and shepards who have a heart for the flock.

Since we have the same heart, Nathan has this same vision. We don't know where God is going to move us next, but with Toronto coming up, I can't imagine what He is preparing us for.

Florida here I come!!

Having the whole week off from school is going to be absolutely wonderful!!!

So...I succumbed to Janna's peer pressure and got one of these things. I swear, I give in to all the latest internet trends.

Anyway, not too much going on here. I'm extremely glad that tomorrow is Friday or I don't know what I'd do.

Today wasn't as long as I expected which was nice. My first class let out about an hour early, and my second class was cancelled. I went in to work early, and so I had time to take a LONG nap.

Well, I should probably be doing something slightly more productive than this (though I'm sure I'll procrastinate further), so...

Until later...

what a bunch of farts?!?!!

What do you do when someone who you thought was one of your good friends goes around school, telling everyone:

"oh i made this couple(matt and I) that have been going out for like a year break up today...because i kissed her boyfriend in front of her and she paid me 5 dollars to kiss her"..

NO NO NO NO!! that's all a LIE!

Matt and I are SEPERATED(we have been for about a week now)...she didn't break us up! yes i got extrememly mad at him for going to hang out with her for some period of time..(b/c i know the reputation of that girl..she's the school whore, who sleeps with every guy she comes in contact with)..and it's not that i don't trust him..i don't trust her!..

And Matt didn't kiss her in front of me!..yes, she kissed me...(like it was a dare thing, and it was just a pop-kiss thing..no tongue)..but i didn't pay her! that's effin gay....

i just really need a bunch of advice on what i should do..im so lost?!?..

He says he loves me...but i don't know anymore..im so confused it's unreal!

please help me....

lovelovelove

alright so i guess i just decided i'll go ahead and just keep 2 journals. so today was alright i guess. i just woke up so i might have a memory issue with most of the stuff. im not even gonna bother with catching yall up with recent stuff cuz i cant even really remember most of it. hurricane, big deal. then monday evening i went to see exorcism of emily rose and we went out to eat. was fun. tuesday i went shooting skeet and i worked all of sunday, monday, and tuesday.

alright so i woke up this morning, got kolaches (i had a craving the night before and decided to do that) luckily it stopped raining cuz if it wouldnt have i would have stayed in my bed and slept. i got to school, and did my pre cal homework.
government-we went over amendments and random stuff about government *shrugs* im glad im in on level
english-we had a group discussion about our book and then we read the rest of the class
pre cal- we reviewed for our test tomorrow
physics- we went over homework and then discussed a lab we'll be doing tomorrow and we have to have our pre lab done to even get in the door
gym-i had to run an errand for the coach to the AP's office and then we went out to the track. i talked to a bunch of people and then we went to the gym to have free day
drafting-we drew a template and i goofed off with stephanie and patrick

i dont understand why when i had originally offered to give anthony rides home on tuesday and thursday he was like "really? alright, cool" and now everytime im like, i'll give you a ride home and hes like "no thats ok" he doesnt even give me a reason. he can at least be like "i know you offered before and thats nice of you but i honestly have a much better time on a hot stinky bus with my friends than i do when im with you so id really rather not be stuck in a car with you, please dont take it personally" instead of just "no" and then hurrying off to go talk to her.

ive been getting more emails from presto:-) and this weekend im going to my dads house:-( hes not having any luck with finding a job so..im thinking if he doesnt soon hes gonna be selling his house. and i dont wanna go back to an apartment with him. i hated being in an apartment when he was in one. then saturday me and anthony are going up to the turkey shoot and im gonna be shooting and so with anthony. it shall be fun, im excited. i just got bit by a mosquito:-( im gonna go now, bye

ok so yeh... today is the 29th... the 15th will be the 30th day of me being grounded... meaning it hasnt even been 15 days and it feels like a lifetime... i miss my life
well actually...
i still do a lot... went to eat with friends 2 days after i was grounded... went to the football game... went and hung out with liz and randy... umm yeh.... a lot of stuff... but im still apperantly "grounded"... sara gets ungrounded the 15th of October... so she only got 30 days... thats what i HAD too... but then i got an additional 30 days for punching a hole in my wall.... the hole isnt even that big *cough*
but yeh... i still have a life... i can talk on the phone.... most of the time... watch tv... listen to music... i still have my guitars... all of them... the only thing i havent been able to do is get on the coputer... oh wait... im on it... so i guess i can still do everything... hmm... well ill update u on my life... well... what uv missed...

me and sara broke up... i found out she was still doin drugs... a major NO in my books... drugs are for hoes and hoes arent for me... (shut up paul... i know what ur thinkin) but yeh... me and her are OVER... ill give the female update at the end of my life update...

my 2nd period teacher refused to give me .01 points on my final grade and he gave some other guy 25 extra points on his final average to so called "keep his reputation" so hes a hoe... i dont like that teacher.... hes the one u always read about me fighting with...

oakland has introduced me to some of the coolest people in the world... kayla, kelsey s.,kelsey j, lauren, but most of all... i definately think the one i would have to give the Oakland Favorite Award too... is Katie Kimbell... shes cool... a friend of pauls... i used to think she was a snob... but im glad i got to know her... but yeh....

variety show went over awesome... i was impressed

sara is mad at me now... who knows why... but i really dont care... i have 2 years left at oakland and im not gonna waste them on petty stupid drama.... and she definately has pettystupiddrama-itis... so yeh...

and im goin to the oakland lavergne game tomorrow night... so go with me...

ok thats all that i can think of now....

the female update:

well sara is out... lauren likes me... and yeh... i kinda like her... but idk... theres things about her... but shes an amazing person... but idk... ill give that time... i was told that a girl named ellain liked me... i didnt believe it and then ellain told me for herself 2 days ago... but one problem with that... shes talkin to another guy... and from what iv heard hes gonna ask her out like any day now... theres one girl... (shell remain nameless) shes been on my mind a lot... i could definately see myself with her... but the problem... shes a senior... shes 17... and shes kinda semi-taken by someone... so that sucks... so yeh... right now im single... and i love it... power to the single guys... lol... but yeh... thats all

im gonna go back to my total antigrounded life... farewell...

Well, I'm sitting here in the Pi Phi house waiting for rush to get started once again. I thought that this was going to be another grueling year of hating my life because I'm dripping sweat while still having to put on a fake smile and have a thousand useless conversations. However, I am pleasantly surprised that rush has turned into a bonding experience for my sisters and I. I guess it was the same last year, but I was just too lost in my bad attitude to realize what I was missing. I have gotten a lot closer to my roommate and a lot of the other girls in my sorority, especially the younger ones. Even though rush isn't the be all and end all of my life like it is for some people, it's definitely cool to see 150 girls coming together for a common purpose and uniting in the sisterhood that we advertise to the potential new members. I never thought I would be the person saying this about rush, but I am, and that makes me happy. I came into this year wanting to have a better attitude about life in general, and that good attitude has made me see things in a different light. Wow, this entry is really cheesy, but the thing is that it's true. I feel right now that I have 150 friends in my sorority that really care about me and I like that. So many people think that sororities buy your friends. That's not true. Just like any club, there are dues that you have to pay to be in the club, but paying that money doesn't make you friends. It's working together on stuff like rush and fundraisers and everything else that goes into making a sorority work that makes us come together and become friends. For the first time in my three years of college, I can honestly say that I am so excited to be a Pi Phi and that I am so proud of our sorority and I consider it not only the best at Ole Miss, but the best in the nation. There is no one going through rush that shouldn't wish they were a Pi Phi, and I really mean that from the bottom of my heart.

i have been thinking about some things
hahah yeah i know most of yall are like...kayla thinking yeah right

but anywasy alot has happend & like everthing good

jessica has got a boyfreind :-D

i met a guy at the coffe county fair haha yeah i know

ITS FINALLY HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have fun guys and i love you all!!!!!!

It hurts when you believe someone has lied about you to someone else, and it makes you look bad.

Just when I was starting to feel better about it...

Please be in prayer for Garrett's family. His great aunt died last night.

Love you guys...

so the greatest thing happened to me today and i just want to tell. let me share... you know how you listen to music and so often God uses it as a tool in your life to draw you closer to him. hopefully that's why most christian musicians make music, to be used as God's tool (but in Nashville you never know!) so since i've been at home this week i've had the greatest time, and today i was having coffee with the missions pastor from my church and one of my favorite worship leaders (songwriter, musician) ever walked in. he's from new orleans and i'd met him like 5 years ago and we have mutual friends. the last album he released has been so influential in my life for the last 3 months, i haven't stopped playing it and telling people about it. so i had to talk to him... right. but i hate people like that, but i did it anyway, and he was so incredibly nice and excited to talk and he pulled up a chair beside him for me and showed me all of the new album art for the ep he's releasing in October, and then he played me some of it. IT IS AMAZING. he said that i was the first person that wasn't working on it that's gotten to hear it. if i can i'll buy it for all you who are actually taking out time to read this (just kidding, I'm not rich)

it's not that he's that well known, and this probably wouldn't excite any of you guys, but i love his music and have for about 5 years now and God has used it in my life, and i think listening to it is like pulling up a chair to God and just enjoying Him. and I got to hang out with him today. i think God knew that it would make my day! unreal... how fun. there may be some cool stuff that comes out of this random meeting :)

go buy it on itunes right now: Jason Morant - Abandon, and the new one will come out in october. jason morant

Today was pretty nice. This week has been unfortunatly stressful - far too many after school activities for my taste - but I love my friends and I have had enjoyable, if somewhat tiring, days.

However -
I wish I was as talented as the other girls in Chamber Choir.
I feel like I'm in there by default - because I was stage manager for Aida.
But I'm not that good.
Not at all.

Today I ate five large cookies for lunch, and nothing else.
I think they must have had happy powder in them.
Callie is amazing!
Then I checked out early - to avoid a math test - you know how it is.



And I'm in love with like 38 different people.
Rachel Swift definitely. Kelsey Young for sure.
And about...36 others.



So wish me luck on the surgery I'm having at 3:45 - which will be my very final one!!! Oh golly. I'm pretty excited.
