Sweet day today....worthy of a second entry, although I'm only on LJ as a means of procrastinating bed, so it's not gonna be long.(AND technically its a new day since its after midnight...pfft whatever)
Pats game was pretty cool. Nosebleed section not so much, but still, was sweet just to be at the game. I saw Meghan Hoyle and her bf, haven't seen her since...I graduated? SO it was sweet to see her. Saw a couple other TOUGHtowners too, but didn't say hi cuz I don't really know em...It's kinda weird how different a hs football game is from a pro one...I can't explain it, but I know what I mean.
Not only did I get my workout in at the track earlier, but Jeff wanted to run the 3 miles to the truck...so we did...it wasn't that bad, felt kinda good actually...even so, I wouldn't dare refuse the request of a US Marine yo! And it wasn't even 3 miles to the truck, so I'm exaggerating, what else is new?
Went to McD's after to clearly get free food, and ended up climbing the playplace. Clearly the Marine went higher than I did too, he even scaled the Golden Arches yo! SAAAAAWEEEEEET!!
I'm gonna say this in this entry, cuz it's kinda short and non substantial, and what I have to say is important.
A LOT lately (basically since Soul Fest) I've been having such more appreciation and gratefulness for my faith. Like it has broughten me so many things I never expected. I always thank God for the people (friends/family/"enemies") He has put in my life, but this summer has like renewed me or something. I have a quote in my profile that reminds me and a few others of Arizona--"You should have seen
that sunrise with your own eyes it brought me back to life". In a way, thats what my summer has been!
I can't explain, but I know a selective few reading this know what I mean. I just notice that SO many of the people who think they are better than God and feel like they don't need Him in their lives are the ones who can't deal with the struggles of their lives. Then I look at me and some of my close friends, and I smile when I see that we try to live our lives to glorify His name, and take whatever comes along as a learning experience or a lesson or a blessing...I dunno...I can't explain it online, it just makes me happy. :-D Good conversations are sparked between good friends I guess?
I'm getting pumped for the end of the fall semester already...can't wait to see what January 2006 brings!!!
I'm out now fools...I leave you with the edited bumper sticker of the day.
REAL MEN (AND WOMEN) LOVE JESUS. AMEN?
