i leave for discipleship camp tomorrow morning around 7:15... yay waking up early.

because

my room is messy. I've never had this happen before.

the movie industry disturbs and disgusts me right now.

i've got batman sunburnt onto my skin.

" everything revolves around clocks, robots, individualism, seperation, egocentrism, and entertainment. "

i sort of want to sleep... sleep... away and not face reality.

i watched people sing stuff that is on their heart, tonight, earnestly, and it was pretty cool.

i made a wal-mart run today, to buy some stuff ( a new phone/charger, sewing needles, cash my check...), and to say hi to people who I used to work with... turns out, they didn't/don't really care. sad.

it seems like that is the case with a lot of people, but not all people.

it seems like a lot of people don't care. they don't care about you, and it's in their body language. I've never noticed people's body language before the mission trip, and now I do. it's pretty bizarre.

I am getting off of the computer.

I saw ami, and hung out with her and noemi, and I got my phone back.

I showed up at bible study 15 minutes after it got over... still getting used to people being controlled by clocks... so I haven't really been paying attention to the time very much, and it's sort of weird to see other people so concerned about it. I don't understand it. well, i sorta do, i mean... I have like 7 clocks in my room... but I'm not using any of them anymore.

There is more exciting news concerning my sisters, but I think that that being announced online is rather silly, so I will mention it verbally, I think.

Tomorrow i am going to go to my former workplace, wal*mart, and get a new phone charger, along with some needles so that I can do some sewing. Some of my pants are falling apart, and I need to sew buttons back onto the man-bag that I bought en Peru. noemi and I talked about spanish today. i'm worried about her, significantly.

it's so hot, I think i am going to take a second shower today.

It's still real weird being home, I don't really know what to do with myself, I should probably clean my room... All i've really been doing is laying in my bed and sleeping, or pretending to sleep, I'm not entirely sure why. I slept outside-ish, yesterday, which was really nice and cool, compared to my hot and humid room.

it's weird to observe people and notice things that I never noticed before.

my room is such a mess, and things keep falling off of my walls because of the ridiculous humidity.

i'm leaving for D-camp on monday, which I'm really excited about, to be gone again... It's weird being home, and I thought I would like it, but I really don't.

I'm not really eating very much... all the food here is really disgusting after having the fresh food every day when we were in Peru. The fake cheese here, with the fattening mayonaise is super nasty, and the not fresh juice isn't very good either... Mrs. Cooper's cookies are still fantastic, however, and so is the milk here. The milk there was kinda weird.

I miss the people on our IMPACT team so much.

I'm going to LHC tomorrow night, I hope. Hopefully I can take some people with, I'm pretty excited to see Jordan Baker's and Ace Water's skillz.

I'm not going to see batman tonight. It's crazy how entertainment-oriented our culture is, along with I-oriented.

I watched a neat video about the navajo indians, and how they still live in their own community, and how a lot of the surrounding culture hsa rubbed off on them, and before, there was not an I sense of community, there was no I, you didn't own stuff, it was to be shared with everyone.

I thought that was so cool, in the latin culture, where if you leave stuff lying around, it's free game, because, instead of it being personally your possessions, it's something that is to be shared with everyone. I don't like the egocentrism. it is unfortunate, but really hard to avoid, the individualism.

seperation with driving by yourself.
seperation with my own cell-phone.
seperation by my own room.
seperation by my own clothes.

I think one of the few things that shouldn't be shared with others is toothbrushes.
oh yeah. my blog is my own, too..
 Anything else, pretty much, is fair-share.
