I'd love to deconstruct deconstructionism

I spent most of my day today working on a 3 page paper for my student min. class tomorrow. It's about postmodern deconstructionism. As much as I disliked writing it I also enjoyed it. Actually, I enjoyed it a lot. I suppose that's because I got a chance to learn about something that I hardly know about....with a lot of help from Audrey. I wouldn't have done half as good if she hadn't helped me.

So, I was really hoping that I'd get more chances to update this. I'm really busy. So yeah. Something has to give.

Other than getting 4 hours of sleep I'm looking forward to my day tomorrow. I just hope I don't find out about any big assignments I didn't realize I had. I'm pretty sure I only have reading to do.

I'm really missing the band right now. I hope they worked hard Sunday. If not I'll have to cut heads off or something.

Hoochie mama

So, I got a date for the Black and White Ball. I asked my friend Rachel. No. Stop thinking those things. There's none of that nonsense involved. She has a boyfriend. And I'm not really interested. But yeah, she still is a pretty cool chick. Haha. One of only two girls that I know here. It'll be pretty fun though.

In other news, we've been watching all of the Matrix movies all day. We're on the third one right now. Intense.

I don't want to go to class tomorrow. We're doing punctuation in English comp. Of fun. I also have my min. class and I think Psychology too.

I have a cold.

One last thing. We got one of our recordings finished. If you want to listen go to www.myspace.com/threehundredfoxes

This is all.

Home is where the fart is

You'll be glad to know that I didn't throw up anymore last night. Just the one time. I sat back and relaxed for a while and I felt a little better. I went to bed and then woke up feeling just a little icky. But I doubt I'll throw up or anything. I'm pretty sure my sickness was caused by what I ate at Alex's last night. Ugh.

I had two classes today. Both were discussions. I really liked that. I worte a two page paper last night for the one class. I think I did pretty good with that.

I'm coming home today. Like I said before I'm wating to and not wanting to at the same time. I feel like I'm going to miss out on some stuff here. It will be worth it for band practice though.

Argh, I likes my new friends! (remember I'm a guy who hasn't really met anyone new for about 2 years)

Toilet 1, Josh 0

Ugh. I threw up..

I think there's more on the way...

"Wait...who's Dave?"

Ah. So, I've been at Geneva for a week. I've been too busy so far to update on here. Basically, my classes are all pretty good. I know somebody in each class I'm in. That makes life a little easier.

I've got a group a friends as well. They're actually all people from orientation. I have met some people who I weren't from orientation, but for whatever reason I'm not really good friends with them.

Anyway, last night I played laser tag with Zac (roommate), Nate, Adam, and Dave. I was actually signed up without my consent....but I'm glad that I got drafted. It was really fun. And of course we won. After that we ran back for a dorm meeting. After the meeting, we all ended up hanging out in Nate's room (across the hall from my room) with Danielle and Rachel (also orientation people).

I'm coming home this weekend. I was looking forward to it, but I kind of don't want to leave. I really like it here. And plus I think my friends might go out to eat...so, I'd miss it. But yeah.

I need to proofread my paper and print it, so I'm outta here.

Chapter 3

So, this is my last post before I go to college. I'm finishing up packing right now. I'm almost done. I'm not sure what to think. It's scary. Exciting. I hope I can handle all the work.

I talked to my roommate today for the first time. He seems pretty sweet. I think I'll get along great with him.......as long as he doesn't use my underwear.

Oh, and I never got my schedule from Geneva. They can suck my bung hole!!!!!!! GAH! I should get it tomorrow though, so it's cool.

I'm hoping that while I'm at Geneva I'll be able to up date this blog 3 or 4 times a week. I want to keep everyone informed on what's happening with me.

I'm like a kid in a candy shop...

Yeah. I'm a big sucker for technology. Haha. So, anyway, today I got a 60GB USB hard drive that I ordered. I'm really digging it. I'll spare you all the tech talk, and just sum everything up by saying it's pretty sweet.

I got my roommate info. Monday. We've both been trying to talk to each other since then. I seem to always miss him and he misses me.

Sunday we had band practice like normal. The only thing that wasn't normal was that we tried out a new guitarist, Tyler. He is good...and of course he got the spot. I'm really excited about what is gonna happen. Tyler learned our stuff really fast. I think we might have a show on the 25th (if the darn people get back to us), and I think even with adding Tyler that we'd probably be ready.

This is all.

This is the begining

Today I went school shopping today for the first time in my life. Printer, backpack, pens, stapler, etc. Yesterday I ordered a USB hard drive for back up and such. I still have a few things to do to get ready, but I'm getting closer. I'm getting excited and a little scared. This will be the first time I've actually gone to classes at an actual school. I'll have to take notes and study and take tests. Yuck.

I'm gone.

What the crap?

I'm really not liking how a lot of our "core group" at youth group seems to be more and more distant. I'm not only talking about Nate. There are others. And I hate it. I hate seeing people I love so dearly become distant from us....and possibly distant from God. I am not in any sort of position to make such a statement. This is because of the very simple fact that I am not God, and thus cannot make a judgement on anyone's standing with God other than my own. I am however heartbroken at the thought of it even being a possibility.

Why are we so quickly swayed? Why do we chase the wind? Why do we take delight in what is fleeting? As believers why do we not only settle for less, but actually desire it more than the truth?

I have to go now. I vomited about an hour ago. And now I'm hungry, so I think I'll go eat it.

Fin.

Yes, the rumors are true...

...I do use black women's shampoo.

Last night I called my good friend Josh. He was home for Christmas. He left this morning at 7 for special training. He's supposed to be there for about a month.

Recording was awesome. We went from 10am to 5pm. It was intense vocally. 7 hours of screaming can start to hurt a little. I think everything turned out really good. It could have been better, but with the time we had it turned out awesome. We also did some video recording. I don't know if we'll have that online, but it should be good...and kinda funny, or maybe annoying depending on your sense of humor.
