| So, after updating my xanga site very successfully for a while, I decided to slack off and not update for 9 days. Well, I'll prolly have 2 today. Today is our home track meet. I've been looking forward to this day for a while, because it's finally a saturday where I can sleep in and not have to get up early to catch the bus. Well, I was looking forward to it until I got back from breakfast this morning and it's snowing. SNOWING! It's 36 degrees with a 26 degree wind chill. Today is not going to be fun to have a track meet, it's going to be freezing. Oh well, I guess I can't do anything about that, except for come back to my room in between events! Well, I'll get on here later tonight or tomorrow, or in a week, I don't know and update it. I hope that everyone has a great day! | | |
| Holy cow...everyone should be happy, I've updated this thing 3 times in 4 days. That's seriously impressive for me. I wasn't planning on updating today, except for the fact that something hilarious happened today during english class. So, frist off...Dr. McGuire is nuts...literally. We had to analyze this poem today called "The beautiful plum." It was crazy..it just described the tastes of a plum, it was retarded. Well, she came in while I was analyzing this pointless and trifling work (aka boondoggle) of a poem and she said..."now, why can't they substitute potato for plum?" So, I start laughing because I think that she is kidding! SHE'S NOT! She really wants me to tell her why you can't substitute potato for plum. So, then I have to describe to her in detail why you can't substitute the word potato for plum. It was ridiculous. Well, then she decided to make us read this totally random and retarded poem. It had letters switched around. So, like the words blue chair would read clue bair or something retarded like that. So, she asked me to read it and so I was reading it and having fun and not realizing what I'm saying...then I come up on the line that has the words that are supposed to say, unlucky fellow...but in the spirit of the poem...they switched the f in fellow with the l in unlucky..so it said, "un*bad word* lellow" and I definately read it aloud to the class. So, to make a long story short. I dropped the F bomb in english class today. I didn't even realize it until some people were laughing and when I looked up the other half of the class was in shock. Then I realized it. I was in shock as well. Well, I'll stop rambling, and to let Katie know, Conan O' Brian just had a skit on new state quarters and they had Nebraska on there. The picture on it had people leaving, and the text said "Nebraska, the place where even Nebraskans are leaving." It was great. Take that Omaha! I hope everyone has a great day. Bye! | | |
| So, yesterday we had a track meet. I did pretty good. In reality, it was a pretty good day for all the throwers. Tag had one go 150 in the disc, but it was out of bounds and he was really consistent in the shot for the first time all year. Tolemy had one go 135ish in the disc and 46+ in the shot put, but for some stupid reason he walked out the front. I don't know what he was thinking. I threw something in the disc, I don't remember what it was because I hate the disc. I threw 51'7" in the shot put though. I haven't thrown that far since freshman year. It's finally coming around and I place all my thanks in the 2 days I spent with my old throws coach in high school. He showed me so many things and really helped me out and now I'm throwing really well. I'm throwing 54+ in warmups too and I really believe that I will throw that this next week. Well, I shouldn't say all my thanks. Obviously, first and foremost, my thanks for the success has to go to God, but Keith Pogue is #2.
So, I've figured out recently that Mercy Me is my favorite band. They are seriously amazing. I love them. I could listen to any of their CD's over and over and not get tired of them. They are my favorite right now. I would recommend them to anyone that wants to hear a really good christian band.
Well, I'm going to go for now. I need to win the world series with the Cubs on my MVP Baseball 2004 video game. Have a great day everyone. Remember, God is there for anyone that seeks Him and He will draw near to you. Trust me, after living both lifestyles, the one where God is walking beside you is infinately better.  | | |

| Holy crap. It's been so long since I've updated this thing. My roommate did this fun survey thing, so I will do that later on today. I have to go to chapel now and hear Benson talk, so it probably won't be that great of a chapel service today. Yesterday was a good one though, so I can't really complain. Well, I will do the survey thing today sometime. I'm sorry Amanda, I promised you that I would update it a long time ago, and I'm just doing it today. Lo Siento. Adios! | | |
