| - girl Ok i guess it's about time huh. I hope everyone had a great Christmas/New Years. Anyone get the new Scott Stapp cd for Christmas? Good. Neither did I. So you know alot of stuff has happened... good stuff, bad stuff, and alotta in between stuff. I got owned appearently.. that was fun. To whoever the owner is congrats.. i did feel very owned. Much like that little lion there. So anyways school starts back up in a bit, this has been my first holiday season to not go home. I mean I went to my Dads for Christmas day and drove back the morning after but the rest of the time ive been workin... I miss Christmas at my moms alot... but really overall it was nice being home alone.. i like the quiet. For some reason its also nice to not have anyone in Denton at all.. and i dont mean my friends here i miss you guys alot, but like just people in general. driving around town and it being empty. Drops the pace down to where i can appreciate it a little more i guess. Ive always marveled at the idea of a big city rat race lifestyle... and still do.. but it was nice all the same. So i guess i got a little more time to hang out with my cousin mano y mano before everything goes back to crazy.
Im looking forward to this new year... more so than any other ide say. January 1st has always been just another day to get excited about going out to do something, never really had that feeling that of hope and excitement for the future. I guess i found a little of that this year. I havnt really made any resolutions, but i did have a desire for at least this semester... i want to go camping at least once every couple of weeks. Pretty random huh... i dont even really like camping all that much. Just wanna throw something different into the mix. God's taught me alot this past year, alot about who I am, but moreso who i want to be. Ive caught a bigger glimpse of truely how deep this relationship can go if i will submit. How much harder i have to work at it, and how rewarding it is. Ive been blessed beyond comprehension and i so do not deserve it. I guess if anything my "resolution," although its more of a desire/prayer, is that i am able to be more outspoken... i have done my best to try and share Christs love through action because i feel so inadiquite and unprepared to attempt it through words. But i dont feel like i can stop at actions because as it is with everyone i will fail at some point or another... Have failed at some point or another. I love talking about Christ with people im familiar with, but if God is going to try to use me to reach someone new, and i cant speak to them when the time comes because i felt im no good at it, therefore attempted nothing, what good will i be?
Enjoy the rest of your vacation, if you have one.. if not.. well.. maybe next year : ) Love yall,
Troy | | |
| You have been owned.
Maybe you should update more often.
Maybe then the dreaded hacker pirates would leave you alone.
Moral of the story:
Dont suck at updating.

| - Crush Its been awhile. So much has happened since the last
time i updated... but man that would take forever to go through it
all... I had a birthday since. It was fantastic. Thank you to everyone
who came and made it great and to those who set it up.
Ive also gotten addicted to Lost... and lets be
honest who hasnt. Oh you, dont you act like you dont know what im
talking about. Thats right.. Lost... the television show. THE
television show to end all television shows. This show has made such
and impact on me i have decided to name my first born Jack. He will be
a doctor... and he will save the universe. So to any who would like to
be the mother of the man who saves the universe please tell me so we
can make necessary future arrangements... O.k. so actually i dont like
it that much, but close.
Im stayin up way to late way to often... my xanga
page looks like turd.. but man do i really want to pay 15 more bucks.
Highland village college stuff is pickin up some
steam. Im so "amped" (you wanna know how gross not havin a job is
sometimes... I picked this word off of Leguna Beach. Someone stab my
face before i actually learn all of their names. Im getting dangerously
close.) about the next few months. We got a few events planned, one of
which is this friday night. I really hope this ministry grows outta
control. Just to think that the ministry that is being started right
now could someday grow to bring hundreds if not thousands of people to
know Christ years and years from now is just amazing. Over the last
couple months Gods really been workin on me. I dont think ive ever
viewed struggles in a positive light before.. but you know when you see
His hand moving in them, even if it makes life seem more difficult for
the time being, there is alot of joy that can be found in just knowing
theres a purpose to it.
Ive got class in five hours... lame.
"You know, i mean to tell you all the things ive been thinkin deep inside, my friend."

| So its Saturday, do you ever look back on the day before and find it hard to believe that two events that you took part in happened in that same day because you stayed up so late? Last night was i guess the first group meeting regarding highland villages college ministry open to anyone. Im more excited than a chimpanzee at a poop flinging contest. From the way Jacob spoke last night i dont think we could have anyone better to lead us. The wheels are in motion, one of his main points was that this is our ministry. Theres so much truth to that, this guy is in charge of being a direct leader to over 1000 people. I can already see God moving in so many people to get this thing rollin and thats why im so excited about it. Its not just people wanting to come together to start up activities. Its God creating a desire in people to reach out and show some love. So we need prayer... lots of it.
Alongside that things have been good. Im lovin the time i get to spend with the people i care about. Darrell im so glad youve been comin up and hangin out with me cuz. I love hangin out with you man, you carry alot of joy with you.. everybody here sees it. Tim, im gonna miss ya and you know that, but i know your gonna show love to alot of people over there. My roomates, yall rock every last stinkin one of ya... Gooch even though you use your dirty laundry to plug the kitchen sink i still got nothin but love for ya. The Pearl ladies, you made us brownies... i mean what else do i gotta say? Dennys, Lynn, Becca, Jen, ANNA (my best friend).. amazing women. Panhandle house, the darcy guys, the keller crew + 2 Hasletts.... yeah... haslett. The new Kennedale crew: Richard Nixon, Rocky's wife and the irish chipmunk... Represent. Lindale Ladies, Mandy and Massey (queen of the ants and giver of poker chips,) J. Miles the hold em champ with that new mysterious laaady? hm? Meggersmegthemegmegamus and of course... pootie. love yall. Peace. | | |
| So i went to the Dave Matthews Concert Saturday... BLAWUAH FREAKIN AMAZING! I was blown away by the just.. totally.. unexplainably good.. GAH. Everything was awesome, i dont think i will ever miss another show in Texas. Its like after 20 years those guys perform as if its their first tour. Other than that we have assimilated a fifth roomate into our apartment. Her name is Clementine, shes a young caucasian with a spunky attitude. AND shes potty trained. Always a bonus. Thank you Leslie for your allergies.
Short entry today, have a feeling ill write a longer one soon... dont know why. Love yall, Peace.
