what i learned this week:

look at jesus when he was crucified... THAT was how much God HATED SIN... i guess it's a new spin on an old viewpoint... we tend to think that THAT was how much God LOVED US, and in many ways, it's true. but this is a new concept i picked up from a fellowship today... THAT was how each of us was going to suffer for our sin... actually worse, cause in hell, you just die an everlasting death for the rest of eternity. so, you were going to suffer worse than 40 lashes in the back, wearing a crown of thorns, mocked, spit, and struck, then carry this large burdensome piece of wood up to a hill where they were going to drive nails through your limbs into the wood and hang you up until you couldn't breathe and die. makes you so thankful that Jesus DID die for us now, eh?

Christianity isn't about what happens AFTER we die... it's about what we get NOW... well, it is partially, but it's more like what we get NOW, and FOREVER. many philosophies that ppl share are something like this:
"so why do you want to work your butt off?"
"so i can get a good job, find a wife, marry, have children and die..."
why wait to feel happiness in your life? do you realize that when you decide to live in communion with God everyday, your joy can start NOW, and never stop?

Christ preached revolutionary thinking; to LOVE others, to submit to others; by submitting you will listen to others and feel free to not HAVE to have your own way. he even commanded children and wives to obey this, like they HAD a free choice. he ALSO told masters to love their slaves... to take care of them, look after them. but we should only submit til it becomes destructive.

need a mic that can attach to my laptop... it'd be so cool to hear my own songs played back. i've never gotten the chance to record anything and save it. and after hearing a sample of what josh recorded on his computer... i admire him.
what else: gamepad, AC adaptor for flanger pedal, delay pedal?

g'luck wes on your sat2 tomorrow; chinse and math; don't get masturchis'd!

nice memorable quote: my SAS class on thursday had a guest speaker, and our teacher was trying to adjust the wireless, handless mic so he(the guest speaker) could speak. so he went up to him, and said, "let me just turn you on" ok, so i may have a sick mind, but that was funny.

to much to do, too little time: 1 paper due wednesday, 1 prelab due wednesday, a journal fill-in, math hw, and i STILL need to read some in every class, plus i need to find out more about registering for winter!

'k; i'm out, cause i have nothing to say.
