This week has been up and down. First was the rock a thon, which was a blast. I watched Masters of the Universe (a masterpiece.....in the 80's.), and played a few video games. Towards the end of the night I was nodding off, so I slept on chairs for about 20 minutes, until I couldn't stand being so uncomfortable. Then I went in the main room and watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (another masterpiece, although I loved them when I was little) and kept nodding off. By the end of the night I was sleepy and only a few of us were left awake. At around 3 or 4, Katy and I went to McDonald's, where an incident of hilarious proportions occured. It involved waiting 25-30 minutes for a yogurt parfait. When the guy said 10. Lovely, right? I thought so too. Katy was irate. And that's all I say about that.
Well I had to get up on Saturday because I was sick on Thursday, so I worked off of 3 hours of sleep. I did rather well if I do say so myself.
Yesterday I helped my oldest brother move all of his stuff out of the house up to Augusta. There was a lot of stuff. His truck, John's car, and my mom's car were all filled to the brim with things. But we got everything and got back with no major incidents. We got back around 11pm and I got to wake up at 6am. Woo hoo.
So today I got something in the mail and it said that my pastor is leaving the church to go to Grace Presbyterian Church in Hudson, Ohio. I'm upset. And sad. I really liked the way that he preached. You could tell that he was excited about the Word, and that he loved what he was doing. He also did entire sermons on scripture from the Bible, and it stuck. That's a feat, to get anything to stick in my head. I'm so easily distracted....but he made it stick, and he made me excited to learn about the Bible, and about God. I hope that they can find someone as good as him to come in. It's going to be difficult for sure. So just pray for me and my church as we go through this change.
Michael said he had a Buick for me. He lied. It turned out to be a Pontiac with the same problems that mine had. So that's scrapped. What am I going to do? I'm so frustrated now, I just got another book today that is thick and a hardback; along with 3 other books and a notebook that's just too much for me to carry from Chatham Plaza to home. I'm just tired of spending my money on a bus that I hate taking and walking half of the distance anyway. It angers me. I just want something that works. If all else fails, I'll fix mine....for $1500. Stupid car.
I'm just at my last strand of patience. I'm frustrated with everything right now. I just need to calm down and take a breath-if I can find the time.
That's about it. Later. 
PS. How did the suggested tag thing come up with one night stand for a tag? That's weird man.
Yesterday was the first day of school. I think it went well for the most part. I just freak out when I can't just turn around and at least see someone I know. But I think everything will be okay. I'm taking 2 microcomputer classes and college algebra. Yes, college algebra. I didn't do well enough at Armstrong for the math credit to transfer. But I had enough english and language credits to last me a lifetime.
I brought my bible with me to school and in between classes I would read. It was such a comfort to just sit there and get absorbed into God's word.
I don't know anyone at Savannah Tech.....if I do know anyone then I didn't see them. I'm all out of my comfort zone. Even when I started at Armstrong I had a confidant, my friends were going there, and my brother was there. But this time things are different. It's me and me only. But I feel ok. My friends from Armstrong are rooting me on, and I feel God with me. I'm going to be alright.
This past weekend was amazing. I went to Jekyll Island with the BSU for a conference, and man.....it was good. Powerful. It made me think about how...how I am so self-absorbed with my worldly possesions that I completely lost sight of God, although I thought that I knew Him, and that I cared of nothing else. My eyes were definately opened. We were at a beachside hotel, and I got to spend time watching the stars and thinking about how amazing it is to have a God who is so Holy that while he is full of love, he is also full of wrath and justice. I also had time to thank God for not letting me take my life those years ago.....He knew what he had in store for me, even though I didn't. If I would have been successful, I wouldn't get to know such wonderful, God-fearing people that I know now. These people are so beautiful, and sometimes I wonder how I came to deserve such a good life. I do love my God. Life is full of twists and turns that, while I don't know what they are, God knows. He's there when I need him, He's there when I think I'm doing fine on my own.....God is all I need.
