i have no idea whether barry did the right thing or just dug himself into a way deeper hole, given what he did on tuesday...

Your Brain is 46.67% Female, 53.33% Male

Your brain is a healthy mix of male and female You are both sensitive and savvy Rational and reasonable, you tend to keep level headed But you also tend to wear your heart on your sleeve

What Gender Is Your Brain?

at least i'm not more female than male... i'd be disturbed... though i am slightly confused about what this means considering it's pretty close... am i too girlish inside?

but here's something i wanna leave w/you: the man thinks w/his dick... the woman thinks with her heart... god thinks with both... it's true... my analogy isn't actually too formal, but it's da truth...

Oh sure, I can stop whenever I want eh?

Napster doesn't go nostalgic... ie they don't have some music groups on their program at ALL... like big dismal, 12 stones, umm, there's a lot more...

i'll try to refrain from the huge temptation to comment about the nba all-star weekend, or bball at all...

it was great to finally see michelle and phil again after what seems like an eternity...

anyways, i saw my nephew for the 1st time this weekend... k3wl; it's weird being an uncle at 21 and having the evidence stare right back at you. biut that's what having an age gap between you and your older sibling of 8 yrs does i guess; it has its benefits. anyways, very huge eyes, has a nice smile... very nice. one thing that irks me... do all babies cry like crazy? seems like almost anything that did not involve michael looking at phil or michelle set him off. oh yea; i didn't know how i was supposed to carry him... *shrug* guess that's something i better learn fast...

so i ended my fast of a weeklong denial of no videogames... what did i gain? well, i think i lived out the meaning of Matthew 12:43-45; i did myself no good to just deny myself videogames(despite it being a good idea), because i found out that whatever else i used to use to waste time, simply magnified itself; i ended up spending a lot more time on nba.com... so, the issue then, of course, points out another weakness of mine... when i do a "non-food" fast again, i'll have to deny myself of videogames AND sports AND blogging AND web-surfing for one full week. the internet part's kinda hard to enforce, because i do have to go online to print out lecture notes and stuff, so i guess i could limit the sites to myucdavis.edu and hotmail.com. but that's not all; i HAVE to lean upon God...

richard foster's completely right; whatever your weaknesses are, will be seen and magnified during any fast:

what i have learned about myself from the cumulative fasts i have done this year have shown me just how weak i am.

where do i go from here? well, there's nothing i can really do, except pray to God that he'll be willing to change who i am; alone i can't do it, although i'd love to; the only way is for God to do so. that doesn't mean i can't plant the seed, but the growing part will be done by God.

fasting indeed, is an integral part of any growing christian's diet. no wonder the modern day individual experiences no spriitual growth.
