yesterday i was eating lupper(lunch and supper) with a few friends. the movie: the passion of the Christ came up in our conversation. one of my friends started to say: yeah i love the ending! it is sooo cool! i mean the things they did in the ending were awesome, ect. then i flip out and say: DONT TELL ME THE ENDING! I HAVENT SEEN IT YET, to which another one of my friends says: you dont need to see it! you already know the ending! it's the passion of the Christ! you know the ending!
sigh. and i claim to be a follower. whew. Lord i hope someone is praying for me and my sanity.

not good news on a wonderful day
today i was looking at career websites. nothing seems like what i want to do. i went to the international mission board's website. i am now depressed. you have to be 21 to even be considered a missionary. you have to be in shape. i am neither of these. i am a music major right now but nothing seems appealing to me. i wish God would yell at me and tell me what to do. it would be a lot easier. i wish i wasnt so blind and deaf to His leading. did i mention i even looked into being a puppeteer. apparently there is a school out in California that has a program designed for puppetry. then more i thought about it the crazier i sounded.
newsflash: im off facebook. it's awesome! i feel so free. some people were upset about this. but i really never understood the point. you can read about my facebook rant in my first blog. i was thinking about how i was spending more time on facebook than i was in God's Book. and looking at His Face. then i was talking to one of my nonChristian friends and this person was like: yeah im getting off of here. it's a waist of time.--that was the nail in the coffin for me. whew. i have a life now. it';s amazing.
back to the missionary thing: international mission board wants future missionaries to have already led someone to Christ. i feel like an awful servant right now. how many people have i led to Christ? zip. zero. none. yeah. what a great witness i am. so now there are three reasons why they wont let me go. but i want to go. my heart is aching to go. but how can i leave when i dont have a plan of action from the Captain. sigh.
no matter what, my heart will choose to say: Lord, blessed be Your name.

perhaps i should just journal.i guess this is something everybody can see on their own leisurely time(THE WHOLE WORLD WIDE WEB!not really but i bet all the hackers are already bored with this. haha). and i can just come write on this whenever and i won't become obsessed with it like i did facebook. i won't! i won't! i won't! no more facebook. i tried it for almost a year and i just dont like it. i got on there to catch up with friends but there was just too much rubbish on there. life is dramatic enough without facebook. sure there are people who say they use it to keep up with friends but ya know...there's this thing called email and chatting that can work just as well as fbook. and you have to have an email to be on facebook. and the art of letter writing is dying and im rather sad about it. it is fun writing letters. not only that but writing letters properly is an elegant thing to put into practice.
so i have decided the following:
-facebook is not for me. i dont care if everyone else is on there. the world will keep turning if im not on there.
-im almost tempted to look on my fbook account but i really dont care. if someone needed to talk to me my email is on there. and the people i talk to regularly have my contact info so why even bother with fbook.
and here is some simple info you might like to know about me(if anyone is reading this)
1. do not assume i am like everyone else. i cannot stand being compared to other people
2. somethings i can pick up on quickly others i need some explaining. be patient and explain if your trying to teach me something. i'll eventually get it
3. dont lose your temper. it doesnt become you whatsoever.
4. with sports: it's just a game. life will keep going and world still turn whether your team wins or lose
5. fireflies. owl city. go look it up on youtube. this song makes me ever so happy.
6. i stop here. 7 is the number of completion and i will be back to work on this later. so come back for more random readings if i haven't bored you to tears.
peace
