| K, this is just weird. Almost 2 and a half years since my last post. Anyone still hanging on out here in hollow Xanga land? It's kind of depressing, reading all of my old posts and comments. People loved me then way more than they do now! Ahhh well, c'est la vie. I really don't ever want to shut this down, it's quite entertaining to remember how I used to be and what I used to care about.
See you in another life, surviving Xanga-ians. ;) | | |
| It seems like it's been longer than 3 and a half months since I posted. Everyone is so myspace'd out. Makes me kind of miss the days of xanga. Oh well.
Just thought I'd change the scenery a bit. Life as a college freshman has been alright. Of course, I'm living at home my first year, so it's like...woo hoo. Not much of a change, as far as my social life goes. Classes/professors are okay.
It is quite shocking and very disconcerting, however, to experience the obvious shift from attending a private Christian high school, to a public.."non-Christian"..university. So far, any mention of God has been met with scoffs and defensive statements such as "That's just stupid. Religion should not be brought into any argument." Okay, then..and the profs seem pretty anti-God/religion as well.. (though "religion" is always a term I myself hate, because of its connotations. "Relationship" is always a better route.) Sometimes it is overwhelming. But I choose to remain strong through Christ's strength and love.
And that is pretty much all I have to say, my friends. Until 3 and a half months from now.... | | |
| Here's the deal. I am pretty much an awesome person because I graduated on the 26th and it was quite grand, if I do say so myself! I can't believe I'm done with high school, but it is a sweet denial. Any spontaneous clarifications in regard to my future? Nah. But am I worried at the moment? Not really. I have found that ignorance truly is a bit blissful...only when one does not dwell upon the uncertainty it holds.
So I figured since it has been a month, I would drop in on old xanga, see how it's liking being ignored by all the Myspace-ians...it is kinda pissed.
Sorry Xanga. | | |
| I know, I know, I should update. It's not that I don't have a lot about which to inform everyone. I am just somehow at a loss of how to make all the latest news interesting. I graduate in 27 days. I am so excited, scared, anxious, sad, happy, pretty much all at once. What will I end up doing with my life? Who will I influence? At what point, if ever, will I feel I have become successful and lived up to my standards? Will I be wealthy enough to travel everywhere I want to go? Will I be happy enough to accept it if I'm not? Will I make as good of friends as I've made in high school? So many questions...sometimes I wish I had all the answers right now. But then, why would I be excited about the future if I already know everything I'm going to do? I have to remember Jeremiah 29:11.
So I didn't bombard you with juicy gossip and late-breaking news. But at least you have a new post on which to comment. E-prop your hearts out. | | |
| Man oh man...was this week fun. The cruise was awesome and totally exceeded my expectations. Never got seasick, which was wonderful. Got a little strep throat type of thing for a couple days, and pink eye on the ride home, but it really was no biggie! I would put some pics up, but my comp and camera are both deciding to be gay right now, so I will try later...so dude. I, along with Jessica, have officially come to the conclusion that I will only marry a man with a sexy foreign accent. Our waiter, Riaan, was from South Africa, and wow...I could listen to that voice all day. Yummy. And I also wanna live somewhere pretty, with pretty blue water, instead of gray water. Yep, this cruise has changed my perspective on a lot of things...mucho mucho fun. I have some great stories, but don't want to relate them all at the moment...little bits and pieces. So, g'day mates! | | |
