looking for a car and job

looking for a car really does suck when you dont have a lot of money and your very picky...thats me...i think my sights are set to high for how much money i have but then again i really want a good car thats going to last me for a long time cause it takes a while to save up enough money to buy a car and all...at least for me being a student and all...

also looking for a job is no fun either, i always think for some reason its going to be super easy for me and all, that it will just fall into my lap...like it did for michelle...but no i have to take the long road...i guess im not as motivated as i prolly should be cause work isnt all that fun...but seeing the bank acount slowly dwindle and nothing go into really does suck too...

im happy i have a family that really is here and supports me and helps me, cause if i was living on my own i do have to think that i would be dead by now...not fun...

ok well peaceout

Title goes here...

OK so I think i am going to start up a 2nd blog or maybe just another part off of this one...i will still have this one and all but the other one will be more like for a Bible, (not study but discussion??) ITs not like i have the thing to say and want to share with everyone...but more like i want to see what others have to say about the Bible and verses and everything like that...

so i will start by throwing up some passages, this way if you dont think you have time for reading the Bible and all, you can come and look here write a lil and more discuss about it...maybe a lil more interesting and that way to keep you more accountable and interested in it...

ok so just wait and hopefully here real soon ill have something up and running...if you have any suggestions of a name for the site that would be great....

ok peaceout hope to see you at the new one sometime...

You never know....



Life is something I take for granted way to much, mine and the ones I love so much. Today I had news that a son lost his son, it was intense for me and I didn't even know the son, mother or father who passed away in a car crash...it really just hit me on how delicate life really is.

This song is a really emotional song for me and after the first time I heard it, it really just made me think, and feel so blah....

Remeber that the when you say bye to someone it could be the last time...I know its kinda a downer subject and all but really....

Changing it up...


If you didnt know yet, I am not going to Simpson University down in Redding, CA. anymore...Ill be moving up north back to the home state and be going to George Fox University...know by the local as FOX...Im trying to be hip with it up here and all.

It will be pretty crazy to be going to a new college and all, it should be really great though, Fox is really a great school and im really happy to be going there, it will be an adventure and a great thing for me for sure.

Moved back up here to be a lil closer to the family and to M. instead of a 6hr drive its only like an hour...so its a lot better for sure...it will be good to be closer to the ones I love....

Finals Day 1 complete

So today we had our first day of finals and I had two of them. They were both really easy so it was a good day to just get in the finals mode and get them over with...nothing to special there.

the worst part is that i have my possibly medium hardness test on wensday and also my hard test on wensday as well....so i have been studian all day for those...well as much as my brain can handle....

but we did find this great new game...actually 2 but i like one better, the one i like is called dice wars...google it its pretty awsome, its like risk but a lot easier and faster...and if you get real good, theres a mutiplayer site you can hit up and try to raise your ranks there....its pretty hard...

the other is called bloxorz...gooogle that too, its pretty fun, a real brain twister...thats why i like the other one better, not as much thinking involved...but i did beat all the levels...thank you...

well day one of 4, so thats not to bad at all...then summer break and then i get to chill with michelle and the family again...it will be great

A look at my title

A little while ago I was going to change my little heading thing that says "I honor the Holy One who lives in you" but never got around to it, and glad that I didnt.

The other day for some reason was just a really great day, and that saying really just hit me all over again like I had never heard it before.

In all of us we have this image of God, becuase HE lives in us...that sparkel in your eye or something you do, its just the image of God.

I really think it is amazing how you can see this in people and in different situations, if its just a good word someone says to you or even someone else, or a smile, or possibly even just someone saying hi. anyways...

when you are with other people, remember God is there with them, treat them with the respect you would treat Jesus, love them, care for them, help them in what they need...go out of your way to do something nice, it really goes a long way.

New Book




I finished my last fun book that I had been reading called The New Chrstians by Tony Jones. It was a really great book for sure, and some really interesting and new ideas in it for sure...i really like the book..

So it was time to get a new book and I got one today from church actually tonite, called Jesus for President...by Shane Claiborne and Chris Haw.

I really like Shane he is a great guy, i actually got to meet him and shake his hand...hes a lot taller in real life for sure...and you think he may smell bad but in all reality he didnt smell that bad at all....

so i got this new book and am going to read it over the summer, hopefully not the whole summer thats for sure...

but i may throw some posts on it up here every once in a while...looks like it should be a good read for sure...

Final Stretch

We officially have 2 weeks of school left...1 week of class and then 1 week of finals...i cant believe that the year has gone by so fast it seems...actually whenever i wanted it to go by fast it would go so and vise versa....so that's not really that cool at all...cause right now i just want to be done.

finals don't look super hard there are a few classes that will be a little ch alleging but that's about it, other than i have to touch up my 10pg psalms paper as well, for Tuesday...and that's not going to be great cause I'm not the best in the whole writing category for sure....

otherwise i cant wait for the summer to be here, get to be back with the family, back with Michelle, and just home...its funny how you always want to get away so bad and then when your away you want to just be home again....kinda funny how that works and all....

well wish all of us here at Simpson luck the last two weeks

i have a lot of speculations about whats going to happen this year, and i hope they come true...as long as it keeps going on forever like frineds i will be happy...

Procrastination...

I have a love hate relationship with it, I love to procrastinate, but I hate having to do all the work at the last min. For some reason I feel exhausted and done with homework, I don't get why I am paying people good money, and then them turn around and make me stress with papers and tests, midterms and finals....maybe we should cut their pay till they make us not do these then give em back their money...i wish....

i don't want to do it anymore!!!! so ill procrastinate a little more...

Theology class

today in Theo class we were talking about sin and evil, so we had to get to the topic of the problem of evil... the problem is this...

1)A perfectly good God would want to stop evil.
2) A perfectly powerful God could stop evil.
3) Evil exists.
=
Therefore God is either good, but not powerful, powerful, but not good, or neither powerful nor good.
(All this is thought up by Leibniz, this is not the final answer because anyone reading this can see there are other options as well)

But then the teacher asked about "why cant we associate evil with God, we always think that evil is on one side and God is the opposite, how could we ever say God near evil, or that it is God's problem...

The this verse came up Isaiah 45:7 "The One forming light and creating darkness, causing well-being and creating calamity; I am the Lord who does all these things."

This is a verse we don't here very often at all, calamity means disaster, ie God creates disaster...this is crazy for some to think of!!! (it took me pretty off balance at first)

but then we ask if God creates it and it is His problem why doesn't He fix it then...and the thing is and its a big THING....He has....God sent His Son to fix the problem of evil.

God may have created them, but he also healed them...and now its us who brings them upon ourselves...we do the evil on our own...not God...

I don't know its a pretty bold verse and something really to think about, I may have not got 100% the right words across here, but in my mind its a lot more clear....

just something to look at.

fun fact

no two lip impressions are the same!!

distance

this is the time in my life i call DISTANCE. (i watched the pursuit of happyness and will labels things like this and i like it, so i may steal it, just trying it on see how it feels)

you man be asking why would i label a part of my life with distance, i mean how can one be distant from oneself...but it is who i am distant from that is the hard thing...I have been in a long term relationship for now over 2.5yrs, which for some ppl seems like a crazy long time(because it is) but the last 1.5yrs ish we have been having to do the whole long distance relationship, and it gets harder and harder everyday.

before i came to college here in Cali, we were talkin with a married couple that had went through long distant relationship as well, and we asked was it hard? And the guy said bluntly yes!!! it felt like he hit me in the face with a brick...that wasnt the answer i was looking for...i remember saying to myself and probably others as well that it was proabably just hard for them, were in a better relationship it will be fine...

how wrong was I, this is prolly the hardest thing i have ever gone through, i think that at first yes it was great that i moved away and i think it really did make us a lot stronger and really was good for both of us, but now it just SUCKS!!!!

we dont know why were in this situation i guess its cause we chose it, but it really does hurt a lot, the distance hurts a lot....
