TFC looks like fun; playing CS leads to a lotta spectating at times... i forgot how fun Quake-style gameplay can be... running into battle with a missile launcher and getting kills by splash damage... looks like i'm gonna hafta actually play some of the other half-life games my bro got me in the bday pack... good thing he gave me that instead of just CS...

my saturn's in the shop... boourns... the plus side is that at least i got it in before i did some major damage to it... the coolant temp was pretty much 1 notch away from being overheated... THAT close... i had to pull into a shaded parking lot immediately and let it cool down before i drove to a shop... this happened on thurs...

i'm in isaiah right now... and it's dawned upon me how many predictions of the messiah are seen in this book... a LOT... also, though isaiah was often the messenger of bad news, he never relished giving it... i was thoroughly shocked to see how he mourned the predicted destruction of moab, an enemy to the israelites... what intrigues me most though, was the prediction he gave regarding egypt, in chapter 19, he gives an interesting prediction about how 5 cities in egypt will dedicate themselves to God, and how one of the cities will be named the City of Destruction; and more; i don't really remember the rest of the chapter, but it looked intriguing; there's also the prophesy how Assyria and Egypt will together worship God; is this a prophesy of something to occur at the end of the world? or has it already occured, because Assyria doesn't exist today...

ucla lost today to colorado... tough loss, because they lost 14 to 16, and chiller(that's his name?) managed to block a colorado field goal attempt to turn the ball over to ucla near the end of the game for an attempt to win...

cal i think lost to washington?(not too sure who they played)... it looked pretty bad when i last checked... 7 to 20 before i switched away...

sf won over d'backs today... they won in the 11th inning(!) when the pitcher lost it and ended up walking with bases loaded, 2 outs...

even though it was mainly a TV sports day(fox had mlb, kron had a cal game, abc had the ucla game and a usc game, and cbs had the us open), i settled upon tennis most of the time to watch andy roddick come back from a 2 game deficit to thoroughly whup his Albanian opponent... i just remember laughing at his funny last name a few days ago when i heard about him... today was the 1st time i saw him play... DAMN! he HAS to be one of the best new rising stars in us tennis! he reminds me so much of philippoussis, except he's a lot faster! he just ACED so much times during the match that i watched him! mustve been 35+ for a duration of 5 sets! the guy's got talent, and i wouldn't want to go head-to-head with one of his 135 mph wide-angle serves! go roddick!

ok, for some reason i wrote up a HUGE bunch yesterday, only to find the library's internet somehow got rid of my entire entry... let's try this again...

why do i wear a green headband when i play bball? i dunno, really... i know for SURE i don't play like Paul Pierce(although i like him, and i like his style, aside from just liking the color green, all reasons why i wear a headband, specifically a GREEN one)... makes me wonder if i wanna get a green elbow band and put it on my right hand just to make me look more like a left-handed Paul Pierce... although my right elbow doesn't break out in sweats that much...

i think my post moves on offense are MUCH stronger than i first imagined... i had fairly good success playing against hubert on sunday... POSTING UP! imagine that! of course, i wasn't owning him on offense(a couple of my post-up hook shots missed, though they weren't blocked), and i was lucky to even block his shot once on defense, i again, had fairly good success... sunk a couple of up-close hook shots with him d'ing up on me, better than if i were trying to use my foot speed to beat him... i combined that with a few outside perimeter jumpers, and that was good enough...

i'll add more later... at home, and mom needs to use the phone... *sigh*... college stuff is beginning to bog me down, just thinking of what i need to do now... i hope God helped me to make the right schedule additions to my sophomore schedule...

sammy ward - it's for you
(i like this song; oldie but goodie)

song of songs gives the impression that God did intend man and woman to be together; their words are often erotic, and they take turns praising each other. what you notice though, is that for something to be this erotic and be in the bible, it is natural, the way God intended. there's no flirting, everything's sincere, and what they get too heated, they remind each other not to arouse love until it desires. there's also no dominance; it's mutual.
