| So i'm Bored. It is funny how i update this thing only when i'm tired and/or bored. I had of today. It is wierd When i go to look at my schedule at work and i see i have a day off I'm totally pumped. But then that day comes around and it sucks. Well today doesn't suck, at least i don't have to work. But I have this saturday off, and i don't know what I'm going to do. I suppose I should do homework. Or then again I could ........ uh, i should probably do some home work. So yesterday I went to my sisters house, before we went to this meeting for a bible study we go to. She said she wanted me to eat over at her place. Free food. Huh? i can't say no to that i said. So i got there and found out she was making me squash. Squash, I said trying to hold back a mouthful of vomit (i can't say the word squash without almost vomitting), I don't eat squash. I recalled a bad childhood expierince i had with squash. My parents were eating squash for supper. I looked at the orangey substance with intrigue. Mom, Dad can i try some of that stuff. My dad said son you wont like it. Oh please dad what is it. It is squash and I don't think you will like it. Just alittle dad. Fine just a little. My dad put a spoonful on my plate, I ate it and instantly threw up it was so gross. Well matt how was it my dad asked. To this day i don't eat squash. That is until yesterday. Now this squash she gave was called spahgetti squash like the pasta. It was all stringy and i had some spaghetti suace with it. The squash had a little crunch to it, but it was good, so good that i plan on buying one tonight and eating it. The good thing is there are only like 40 calories in like one cup. So i can enjoy the taste of spaghetti without becoming morbidly obese. Huzzah. The only things is when i eat squash i get gasy and my farts smell like pumpkins, it is kind of weird.
So i guess the whole moral of the story is don't mess with uncle lester when he is drunk, or something like that.
Here is a story i wrote for your reading pleasure. Hi. My name is John. I guess you could consider me a pretty normal guy. I wake up eat breakfast. I have a Nine to five job. I like to hang out with my friends after work. So yeah I guess you could pretty much consider me a normal guy.
Like I said I'm pretty normal. Except for one thing. And this problem is so little in fact I wouldn't even call it a problem, this thing is nothing. I mean even the most normal person has something, one teeny weeny little thing that doesn't make them normal. So i guess if it wasn't for this one little thing I would be normal. You see the thing is I'm a cannibal. Now wait stop for a second. I know what you are thinking oh john you are sick person. But you don't even know me, don't judge, until you undestand me.
You see when most people think of the word cannibal they envision some crazy tribe of people who eat any unfortunate who lands on their island. But thats not the case. In fact there are many people i know, sophisticated people, you know the high society type of people who are cannibals. And it is not like everything they eat is people meat. it is more of a once a week type of thing, sort of a end of the week special if you will. Now cannibalism has its perks, food is cheap and always plentiful. I guess the only down side is , and it could be different it all depends on the person, but when i eat people meat my farts smell like pumpkins. It is kind of funny i was in the lounge at my work and i let one rip when i was with some colleagues. They just looked at me and said man that thing smells rancid what did you eat last night. My neighbors left arm i said, they laughed, I didn't understand what was so funny someone behind me must have said a joke.
My apologies if the story is a little off the edge, I just wanted to write a story about cannibals. It is suppose to be funny. I fon't know why God gave a wierd sense of humor. Anyways, to anyone who reads this I hope you are doing well and know that Jesus loves you.

| Man, I'm so drained. I had a 12 hour day. I'm not really tired I'm just mentally drained. I can't wait until this semester is done hopefully i can get back to a more better school/work schedule. But on the upside I'm going to skip my morning class tomorrow and just sleep in and do some studying and junk. I don't have to work tomorrow so that should be sweet.
I brain, I need some sleep. But is kind of noisy around my house and i want to read before i go to sleep and i need it quiet to read the bible so i will stay up and write on here. But here is the problem i don't know what to write becuase i can't think right.
Well over the Summer i felt God was really trying to teach me about many different things, mainly trust. Trusting in him more for every little thing. And trusting in him for my salvation. I read Psalm 70 yesterday or sunday night i cant remember. One of the last versus is something like Lord Be Great, but I'm poor and needy.I'm trying to grasp this idea of me needing a saviour. And i guess this all ties in with what I'm trying to write. The last few weeks or couple months, I don't know. I have been realizeing that Jesus is trying to teach me things and yet I not putting these teachings into action. I have been praying that God will help me do things like trusting in him and what not. Oneday, I'm pretty sure it was God who told me I can help you do these things but i can't do them for you. LEt me give a little story when i wake up i one thing i pray is that God will just help me get out of bed. Now God is not going to magically get me out of bed, dress me, feed me, and get me into my car so i can get to school. But he will help me get out of bed and get through my day if i make the decision to get out of bed.
Now like i said I have been praying that God will help me and guide me in putting these things that he is teaching me into action in my life. I fell that I have been really lukewarm in my life regarding sharing my faith with others in my life who are not christain. Some people at my work know I'm christain, I read my bible regularly in the break room but that is it. At 2:42 the other night we were talking about reaching out to others in our lives, and I'm like crap this is what i have been praying about for the last month or so. So, any ways to bring this ramble all together. I don't want to be lukewarm any more. But God won't make me the opposite, or atleast he can't make me the opposite of lukewarm until I make the choice and let him help me. And this is a hard choice to make.
But anyways. Today was good. One thing i have thought about and prayed allittle about is just changing how act at work. I give alot of my friends at work a "hardtime" in a joking friendly sort of way. But i realized most of my relationships with my workmates are not really serious, I don't know much about them becuase all i ever do is joke around with them. Today I tried something different specifically with this one girl i really give a hard time to. I didn't make any jokes about her work habits I just said ha\ey how is it going how is your day that sort of thing. She looked funny at me and was like Matt no snied remarks today, huh are you felling alright. It felt wired but we actually had a conversation. I don't know that is my two cents. I'm going to hit the bricks ..... with a sack of baby.... uh.... things.

| This week i tell you. It has been a week. NOt very busy just the same old. I don't know what happened. It has just been mondane. The begining of the week I found myself worrying about things i didn't need to be worrying about. These last couple days I feel God has been trying to tell me I need to trust in him. I don't think I have ever really trusted God With every little aspect in my life. And I know that this is a hard thing to do for even the most disciiplined people. But I feel i have not been trusting God with most aspects of my life. I have been trying to do alot of things on my own without really realizing it.
Lord help me to realize that you want the best for me and that what ever happens it will happen becuase you want it to happen, and that you will give me what I need when I need it. Help me to trust in you.
On another note. I went out with my freinds ben and josh today. We did a little shopping i needed some shoes, they needed some clothes. Then we hit up basic and i got leelands debut cd. It is pretty sweet. There is alot of pretty music out this fall. I wish i had money to buy all the new cds this fall. But like I say why buy when you can steal. Sarcasm.
I think i need to go to bed i can't type right now be cuase im a little tired. I think i will update again this week. Bye bye every1.

| Well aparently some wierd girl posted a response on my last entry saying that there is a site with pics of me doing nasty stuff. HHMM. Nasty Stuff? She must be referring to the time I covered my self with with rotten cheese and danced the Macarena in ladies underwear. HHMM. I think i better put my shades down next time i do that. I just thought i would clear this up.
Anyways. The school season is well into action. Holy crap now that i think about it my third week is over. Wait no my second week only my second week. But school is going good. I have actually been trying. And it actually is not that hard. There is not much more to say about school becuase school is school. .
Lets see what else has been going on. Oh yeah I last sunbday on the 27th i became 20 Years old.
Now i can legally rob banks, and steal cars, and blow things up, Well acording to me i can. HEre is the funny thing. Every birthday I have people ask me "you are a year older do you feel any different". And i never do. But this year no one asked me this, and the things is for the first time in my life I'm a year older and i do feel different than I did a year ago. I mean I'm still feel like a little kid but almost every aspect of my life has changed. I don't what word to use to descirbe it, I'm um... I think I'm... hhhmmm..... okay here it is everyone don't take this the wrong way, but I think I'm getting "old". The word "old" has gotten such a bad rap. I think God has given me a mission in life. I feel one of the things i need to do in life is to put a positive spin on the word "old". I want to be the most laid-back, crazy, funny, unique old person. Well maybe not the most, but I don't want to get old, the way other old people get. I guess what I want to do is to be me and continue to be me and not change becuase of my age.
"Dear children abide in him so that we will have confidence and not shrink back at His apearence"
Or something like that This verse is somewhere in 1 John ch. 2 or 3. I have been reading 1 john lately. Abide is such a cool word. Gods children are called to just rest in jesus and never get up from that rest. It is something that sounds so simple but it is so hard to do. I don't know. I have been trying to just abide in Christ had some step backs and some step forwords, But it has all been good.
Peace out.
Oh I think i got a new favorite band there called Starfield. They are pretty sweet.
And one last thing. Go to http://www.firepower.org/index.cfm/pageid/533 This is a funny site. These two youth pastors took a bunch of bible stories and what not and just made voice overs they are pretty funny.
Peace out.
