| simple things are the most humbling i think...i consider(d) myself pretty tough, but i'm learning that i'm pretty weak in the stuff that matters most...
"After he has been following Christ for a long time, the disciple of Jesus will be asked 'Lacked ye anything?' and he will answer 'Nothing, Lord.' How could he when he knows that despite hunger and nakedness, persecution and danger, the Lord is always at his side?" - Dietrich Bonhoeffer

| i have all these days off this week, due to my new schedule starting today. i hope i don't waste them.
(like i'm doing right now, i suppose.)
i went to my friend's cd release show last night (All the Rage). and they were great, as well as Solidarity, which is exactly my type of hardcore, i.e. it's still 1/2 punkrock.
TooPuretoDie played as well. and they make me hate them so much. bands like them are the reason i hate the scene and hate "toughguy". the arrogance is just astounding. and calling people "faggots" and "lazy mutherfukers" from stage 100 times is just kinda sad.
maybe they're not dancing b/c you suck?
*sigh*

| it seems that whenever i'm sick, i can never get over it. i'm finally feeling better, but still feel sorta crappy, i.e. no energy at all, and i feel dehydrated all the time. it rules.
so when i'm sick i get super whiny, i can't even stand to be around myself, so usually i become a recluse so i don't have to subject my friends to my annoying self. so that's where i've been.
i'm looking forward to salvage yard tonight.

| my time here, all 36 hours sofar, has been amazing.
my cousin who lives in oregon was on my flight from mpls-gr.
i ran into my junior high youth pastor at a bagel shop while i was with my mom.
swaped music with ryan van.
ate some food with justin (who gave me tuburculosis for christmas)
my church indeed had a christmas service last night, which was so beautiful, i thought my heart might burst, i thought i wasn't going to be with my mars hill family, but i was wrong!
went to the Dungeon with Luke.
went home to find my brother & cousin watching MacGyver season 4!
went to Gaia today, it's been almost 2 years i think <3
finally took pictures of the burnt down Clock. *sigh*
and now i'm sitting at the 76, drinking free coffee, using the wireless. waiting for Sean Sterns so we can work on a christmas version of my very first zine Fa!ce, which hasn't existed for yearrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs. and adam's stopping by as well.
tomorrow i'll be watching 24 hours of A Christmas Story w/ my bro, hanging with my family, and going to KCC's christmas eve service. which is my favorite part of christmas, and i haven't gone for 2 years. AND they're still doing 80's night on christmas.
i'm so blessed to be here with my friends & fam.
merry christmas all! <3
