2 hours on the internet+boredom+no chatting abbilty=worth1000.com

Okay, so I was sitting at a computer with internet and nothing else to do today. I am not allowed to go to any video or chatting sites. The next best thing? A website called Worth1000.com. If you are ever looking for some photoshopped pictures, take a look there. They have everything under the sun plus some! Here are some of the hundreds of pictures I found.

Chocolate lovers dream...


For all of those coffee lovers out there.


Coke and Mentos?


Mario anyone?

Man in my pocket and having a "Blast"

HI! *Waves* How are you today? I am doing just great!



Last week, specifically everything after Satureday went by WAY to fast for my liking. Thursday I went to the local Agicultural Fair. I had a blast. I enjoyed taking pictures and spending time with my friend and family than I did riding the rides. I know that sounds weird, but it is true. I loved it. Especially when you see the pictures I took. Click here to see the little man that road around in my pocket. He was a very intersting person to have with me all night. I don't know if he enjoyed himself or not. You will have to ask him.



Satureday was a "Blast." The youth group went the the Carolina Youth Blast. I know, BAD pun, but I couldn't help myself! There were carnival like games that tested your skills, a mechanical bull, foxhole human foosball, climbing wall, giant slide, obstacle course racing, sparing, somo wrestling, and a volleyball tournment. My favorite games would have to have been the human foosball and sparing. The time spent in the van coming and going was pretty fun too!



There also was three services scattered through out the day. Mike Shrock was the speaker. He spoke on Salvation, the heart of an unbeliever, and the kind of "fountain" we should have. All three messages were good. Mike Shrock is always very animated. In the first service he yelled to infasize that he was excited about being saved. It echoed like you wouldn't believe! He was so tickled about that he yelled again! It echoed again! I am sure the whole area was wondering what in the world was going on! It was so funny....



There doesn't appear to be anything fun planned this weekend. It will probably be spent cleaning and organizing. What fun! :P

Youth group and beach

Hey all! Last Wednesday at church we were goofing off before hand like usual when something funny happened. The guys were trying to see if one of them could make a basket from the other end of the basketball court. This can be very dangerous mind you. Flying basketballs everywhere! I was retrieving the misssed balls from off of the stage. This was also one of the safer places to stand. I threw one of the balls to my friend, Scotty. The ball went right between his hands and NAILED him in the nose! It was SO funny! He had to sneeze for the longest time after that.

The service was very unique. Mr. DeLand could not preach. He was going to talk about the verse in James where it talks about being doers of the word and not hearers only. In that cluster of verses was the verse that talks about being slow to wrath and quick to hear. Well, earlier that day he had been quick to anger and slow to listen. This made him only a hearer of the word and not a doer so he could not preach his planned message. This was the first time I have ever had a youth leader do this. It was kinda neat. As well as inspiring.

The game we played that night was "chariots". It is a game that I will not play again unless the chariots have wheels. You were basicly pulling team mates around a circle on a blanket. The blanket wasn't very slick. This made it VERY hard for me because I am in many ways a light weight. When I was being pulled it wasn't a problem. I had a problem pulling. I over taxed my body. This gave me a MAJOR head ache. I was able to sleep it off, but next time I am definitely not playing again.

Saturday we had a youth activity to play games, eat (of course!) and watch the movie, "The Climb". It was a good movie! I also enjoyed playing the games. Hockey was the biggest game. The other game we played was kinda like the game Cat in the Hat at the Wilds. If you are not familier with that game, its basicly musical chairs on stariods. (I know I spelled that last word wrong, but I can't figure out another way to spell it!) It was a VERY fun night! I can't wait till the next youth activity!

Now, what does the beach have to do with youth group? Apsolutly nothing! I am currently in Myrtle Beach, SC. Our room faces right out on the water. It is very cool! I will be enjoying myself greatly the next few days.

Here are a few pictures from the past week.

school with poetry

Today I think is the first Monday I was not really jumping to get to school. I think I am still wanting to go slow from all of last weeks nonstop-ness. (I know that is not a word.)

I am getting a little fed up with the treatment I am receiving from one of my friends. They sit with me at lunch. I am not sure why they do because most of the time they don't really even talk with me. Sure there is a little bit of polite stuff here and there but before I know it either they have gotten up and left or they have brought out their vampire love story book along with their mp3 player and seem to forget I even excist. Don't you just love those kinds of people? Especially when they wonder what is wrong with you when you start acting the same way! I know thats life, just is slightly annoying.

Anyway, in English today we did something fun. We read and wrote poems. Not really complicated ones, but simple ones. If you want to see my favorite three poems that we read today go here. As for the poems we had to write, they had to be acrostics. That made my life SO much easier! I couldn't decide on which to write about so I did these two.

Sovereign is my Lord
And King,
Victorious shall He be.
I want to serve Him forever.
On my knees I will show my
Utter appreciation for His
Risen Son.

Delightful, I can be.
Excitement is not shown
By hyper activity, like most
Out there, is how most describe me
Reserved are my actions in new circumstances,
Am I hitting the mark? I often ask.
Happy am I with the way God made me.

I know the second one seems choppy and doesn't flow well but I just don't know how to fix it. So, what do you guys think? See me being a poet in the future? Have any ideas on how to make the second poem not so choppy? Have any ideas on how to deal with my friend? Please let me know!
