| Some things I've learned recently:
Sometimes you shouldn't say what you feel even if it's true.
Almost everything is a common experience, it's presumptuous to think
you are the only one experiencing what you are experiencing.
Not all bad things have direct consequences.
Just b/c a guy asks you for your number, e-mail address, and AIM doesn't mean he will contact you.
It's better to ask and get a "no" than to not be able to say you tried.
They need to have more econ major-friendly science lab classes on common curriculum.
There is a terrible genocide in Darfur.
You can accidentally become materialistic.

| Some thoughts from over the last few days:
Stephen Peacock sits in the front of my business law class and always
asks questions. But he speaks so quitely that I can't hear the
question. Then the professor answers it but I don't understand b/c I
didn't hear the question.
Somehow I don't really believe that Jesus would die for me over and over again if he had to. But I think he would.
Justin C. Says that depression is when you can't look at the darkness
inside yourself so you pretend it's not there, but it slowly takes
over. He says the darkness is even darker than I realize, but that I'm
held by God's grace. I don't really understand, but I think it's true.
There is a permanent footprint in the stairs at Chapman. The footprint is my friend.
I've decided that I need daily repentance to truly understand the grace of God.
Amanda and I prowled around the library with paper airplanes last
night. We were pretending we were in a video game looking for Fletcher
so we could throw the airplanes at him. He saw us both times.
"We see...that passion for the church is a sign of true passion for
God. If God has changed your nature and placed His Spirit within you,
you will love what He loves, and He loves His people — real people in
real places living out real lives in relationship with one another. God
loves the local church, with all its imperfections." ~Joshua Harris
I keeping hearing things that I have to weigh carefully. Things I can't just make up my mind about.
Guitar Hero (the new video game like DDR for a guitar) has changed my life.
Derek Webb's album "House Show" carries priceless truth. Please partake.
Amanda and I were discussing last night that we are in friendship love
with Nick and Fletcher and they are in friendship love with us. I wish
everyone could experience something this amazing.
"Flattery at it's very best will encourage really nothing more in you
and your community than behavior modification...All the behavior
modification in the world will never change your hearts, will never
change your communities." ~Derek Webb

| WOW! I haven't updated in
like...oh wow. I think this is a record. I bet no one reads this
anymore. I just got out of the most intense kickboxing class in
history. I'm glad I'm taking it. I have emotional problems that I can
let out on the bag. You'd think there would be more to say after so
long. I guess nothing much has changed. I should be using this to vent,
not update the void on my life. Hmmmmmm. I'll wait until I need to vent.

| I don't know what to say. I got an A on my mid-term for those who care.
I am so exhausted emotionally. I want to go home...like, to Jesus. I've
been beat up so badly this semester, all my relationships are falling
apart and I don't know why. I feel so helpless right now. I want to
relive these past like 4 months...5 months. I'm totally not seeing the
"light at the end of the tunnel" or even a possibility for good in this
situation. If this happens again...I don't know what will happen. None
of what I learned, none of these lame relationships are worth all of
this pain. It better become worth it quick. The End.

| UUUGGGHHHH. I have my Chinese mid-term
tomorrow. Bu hao! I guess that would make this extreme procrastination
part 3. I think the freshman 15 finally caught up with me. Maybe 10, or
5. I don't really know what to say b/c so much is going on that I don't
want to say any of it. But I guess all the ppl reading this that care
I'll see over spring break. I'm tired of thinking about things. I think
I'm tired of doing things too. I'm tired of thinking about how I'm
tired of doing things. I feel like I should vent, but I've been venting
for the past 2 weeks and I have nothing new to say. But I guess that's
just complaining then. I'm tired of sorting through things. Can we not
deal with anything for a while? Can we just sit here and pretend like
nothing's wrong? Ok. Let's do that. I'm not good at that. Gee... I
should go to the chapel. That always makes me happy. But I guess that
would just be procrastinating. Oh, I should do laundry...
