"We never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up"
Oh man.. what a fabulous Friday it was! Went to English.. then to the BSU to hang out. Went w/ Bren, Doris, and Jessica to Little Italy for lunch. Oh so very good. Then back to the BSU to get put into more wrestling moves again. This time Younker basically got my entire body off the ground w/ my weight balancing mainly just on my chin until I could get my arms around to push up to a handstand.. ouchie!! Anyways.. off to Spanish.. where we basically just sat there talking to ppl in Spanish the whole time.. I guess Prof. Larios didn't have a game plan lol. Oh well.. then to my house to hang w/ my brother. I went to pick up Anna so we could go to the Gymdawg meet, which we lost... but it was still a great time. I got to see a bunch of ppl from the gym who I hadn't seen in forever.. that was nice. But after the group I was sitting w/ wanted to go to see Phantom of the Opera, and once again I didn't want to see it..so I went off w/ other ppl. If you saw crazy kids painted up for the meet.. wearing crazy clothes.. those would be the kids I was with..lol. It was Steve, Stephen, and Trey.. those were the painted kids I mean. BUT I was also W/ Jessie P., Steph, Bryan, Joy, and a few other kids. We went to Taco Bell for dinner and then to the Promise Land. At the Promise Land we listened to the Kelly Clarkson song.. Since You Been Gone.. and Steve tried to teach me part on the guitar, but I'm not so good lol. A few kids left and we went to Hot Corner downtown. This was around 11:30, maybe.. let's just say we didn't leave until a good 4 am. We played Scrabble and just talked a lot. Man there were a bunch of great stories shared. It was an awesome time getting to hang out w/ those kids more. I'm sure ppl were getting mad at us for being so loud, but w/e. At some point I ended up giving out feet massages and having my feet massaged...lol.. don't ask why. I spent a lot of time talking to Jessie about some ppl from the past, b/c apparently this person started talking to her a while ago online and asked about me.. which is oooo so very random.. but eh w/e..(sorry that's vague for some of you kids) Anyways, we also spent a lot of time talking about what God is pulling us to do, and the changes we gotta make etc. Basically no stone was left unturned last night.. we talked about it all! Stephen told this great story about this competitive family who was rafting. The son and father were obv. trying to see who could hold on the longest at what speeds etc. Well the son gets on. He's going along and the float flips over and the dad kinda keeps going for a bit. The ppl in the boat just assumed the kid fell off and they were trying to find him. Like 30 seconds later this hand reaches around the raft from outta the water, taps it twice, and the dad was like.. hey he wants me to keep going. The father revs up the boat and starts going again.. dragging his son under the water!!! They hit a huge bump and the raft flew outta the water, twisted back over, and the kid was still freaking holding on! Just to beat his dad!! Man.. what a beastly story! Anyways..We finally decided to leave when the guys who worked there were giving us some mean looks.. like get out already. SO we left.. when we got outside somehow I ended up giving a piggy back to Steve. I carried him all the way to his van in the Redeemer parking lot. :-/. I've got strong legs.. what can I say?? It was funny though, b/c I'm so short.. he kept swinging his legs saying "Man I could probably just put my feet on the ground right now and be walking while you're carrying me." As we got closer to the car he started to hum the Olympics theme song to keep me going.. man I was doing everything I could not to laugh or I probably would have dropped him. Oh man.. if you see a red/ burgundy van riding around campus w/ very shiny spinners.. that's him.. so feel free to honk or laugh at him. Neways we just dropped ppl off at the dorms and headed back to the Promise Land.. then I headed home. While I was driving I noticed how freaking beautiful the sky was looking. The moon was so bright and everything was just so quiet at 4 am. I just stood outside of my house for a bit looking up just being so amazed w/ God's creations!! Bah.. then I crashed and fell asleep right when my head hit the pillow. Who knows what I'll do tonight!
