Sorry! What are the little things you notice about people?Be specific on the people and things
Sorry I did it agian, I guess I'm still trying to figure out the kinks of this whole journal thing. Just ignore the other entry, it was suppose to be this one.
This question derives from a conversation I was having with a group of friends of mine from school. We noticed that the people that care about you the most tend to notice the little things that you yourself don't even notice. And when you tell those people it makes them feel really good to know that people show so much interest in them. So make a list of all the people you see the small things about( I'm sure you'll make some one's day).
O.k. where to begin? This whole week has been the shits, a lot of crap is surrounding me and my friends. In short, I've been put in a really ackward situation. The guy that asked me to the homecoming dance, aparently, likes me A LOT!?(yes, everybody called it, I know)But I don't think it would be a smart decesion to go out with him, because of all that crap I was talking about earlier. Isn't that weird that everything comes rushing at you all at once, I personally rather have it come at a equal but gradual kinda way. But I guess that's just not life. Anyways, I'm not sure how I'm going to handle it, he's a great guy but there is a lot of stuff I need to deal with before I make my life any more complicated by bringing in more stuff.
I feel happy and worried a bunch of the time now. I haven't seen my NHI friends for awhile(the kids, Chris and Art, screw hector)except, Luz, Ayesha, and Kenny and that's only because they go to my school. I have to admit that me and those guys have gotten closer then ever, we talk about everything from love, life, and chaos. As Art would say "Its good." But I barely got to talk to the kids at the boring NHI meeting on thursday. MAN I miss my united cx group and Chris and Art's hilarious random comments. I can't wait to train next year. I'll have my license before the 1st meeting in January so I can take all the kids wherever their little hearts desire. I wish I could of gone to the corn maze with them, but I had to be a pointless swim meet that was just a waste of my friday night. I AM SO SLOW now. I got captain for those I didn't tell(which is like no one, because I was so excited). Anyways I'm glad everyone is trying to keep in touch, that's more then I can say about people from my year!
What else? Spiritually I feel very distant from God. My faith is very strong, but I haven't gotten the chance to go to church every week(cause my parents work on Sundays) and that makes me feel as if I'm breaking some spiritual rule. Not to make anyone mad, but sometimes I feel as if I get more of a spiritual connection outside of the church than I do within it. I'm not sure why, but the consentrating on the words instead of feeling the message has always made me feel uncomfortable there. I don't know, I guess I rather have a personal relationship with God than be with a large group of people reciting or more like regergatating some songs and prayers. Now I loved Youth Group, but now I can't even make it to that! I just need to find a time where I can completly devote my attention to the Lord and hope that it will get me through the week. At least I have wonderful spiritual friends , that always helps me, like Chris, Yanin, and Art. Especially Art, there are only a few people taht I can say I truely feel the spirit of God just radiate of of them and that's defineatly Art.
I already talked about my situation with the opposite gender, but in reality that is only the surface of things. But I guess I'll just see how everything plays out.
School is school. But I did go to a play at Eastwood on Saturday(I promised a friend I would). It was good, it had so many life lessons in the end and a buch of my friends were in it. I love thhe theater, its one of the only places where people can become totally different characters. After that me and my firnds went to my house and watched Peter Pan. MAN! my girlfriends are sooo horny, ever other word was about how sexy Hook is, or how hot Peter Pan is and soo on. My poor guy friends must of just sat there and been really left out of that conversation. After the movie we played a game( one that we always play whenever its just us at my house). It's like the question game, but more personal, the point is to better get to know your friends. A bunch of really good question were asked and we always leave knowing a little bit more about the people we hang around with.(yes me and my Damn questions, I know curiosity killed the cat)
Today was a work day. I bought my Sparta tickets and I'm going to see Taking back sunday in Austin in mid- october! After that I called a frind to comeover and do some work, we watched movies, eat and drank everything(short of alchol) in the house(while we did work) and just had a hell of a time. I think I like being with a few people more than being at massive parties, unless those parties kickass!
So yeah just another boring week in the life of andrea.L.O.l.
Ohh! I think everyone's read Arts journal, I loved the question at hand. I wish I could of written more(but I got kicked of the computer)but I think everyone brought up good points. I especially agree with Chris, Ale, Art and a few others. I don't know but from the research I had to do on the subject I found a bunch of stuff that made me think and then made me sad. Abortion is a sad reality and its something we have to face, but I'm glad I'm surrounded by such great, opinionated, people that will eventually be the leaders of tommorrow or something like that.
Thus, I end with a farewell and I salute those that dare to dream, dream to live, and live to see the one's they care about smile.
