I just went over to the Brown's for a pumpkin carving party. It was one of the best times I've ever had. There was mostly little kids and middle schoolers, but I met someone named Amanda, she was really cool. She's a sophmore, but she's had all the same teachers I've had and she's in band. Actually I first met her at homecoming. But yeah, odd.

We had all these cool contests and I won the coolest pumpkin award, it was a silouette of a tree and the grim reaper by a house. It looks really cool, I'll have to upload the picture to show y'all. We had a pinata, bobbing ofr apples, mummy wrapping contest, ballon popping thing- it was a great time. It's interesting when you're having a really bad time and all of the sudden it turns into a great time.

They also had this thing where they put dry ice in a bowl of punch, it looked really cool.

Hm, I haven't updated in a while, have I?

I had a party yesterday with my small group from church, it was cool. We did pumpkin carving. My group's pumpking was ordinary, it was three crosses and we thought it was cool because we cut around them instead of just cutting the crosses out (we're just guys, okay?) another group's was hilarious, they carved 'Happy 4th' on theirs with fireworks and stuff. Our small group leader, Dan, asked them if they had smoked their pumpkin... And then there was another crosses one, Lori kept bugging us by asking if we would have really carved crosses at a secular event. She was joking, but I dunno... :/ I'm kinda sick of everyone out there calling Christians hypocrites, although I know I am... they just don't take the time to get to know what Christianity is all about.

Speaking of which, there's a question and answer thing going on at my church this sunday, talk to me if you're interested.

So that's about it, I feel kinda sick. Sorry about being so down at school today.

I've been diggin' this song lately:

Fight Test

I thought I was smart - I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight - I thought there was a
Virtue in always being cool - so when it came time to
Fight I thought I'll just step aside and that time would
Prove you wrong and that you would be the fool -

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery

Oh to fight is to defend if it's not
Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
And be a man - for to lose I could accept but to surrender
I just wept and regretted this moment - oh that I - I
Was the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life - it's all a mystery

Cause I'm a man not a boy and there are things
You can't avoid you have to face them when you're not prepared
To face them -
If I could I would but I'm without now it'd do no good
I should have fought him but instead I let him - I let
him take it -

I don't know where the sun beams end and the star
Light begins it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides what right for his
Own life - it's all a mystery

Hi!

I just saw the Matrix (finally). It's the best movie ever.

Brett and I were doing weird match-ups on the way home, on account of the musical boy/girlfriends going around. Interesting results.

Hmmmm.... there is no keyboard....

Nuts, it's not a CRASHdog CD.

Yet.

Annual Insanity Day at the Toonies
Hi!

We're cleaning the carpet. All our furnature is stashed on the hard surfaces. It's like a garage sale, without selling.

Band was okay. We won first in class AA, but Jenison and Petosky beat us overal. I was bummed. But I had a great bus ride home and I'm reading Palahandra again- its a great book. I can't go two sentances without something setting me off thinking about how it pertains to my life.

My dad gave me permission to have makeout sessions in the basement and showed me how to work the fireplace. Huh.

That's about it. Jesus loves you.

Man. I shouldn've started work on this sooner.

I'm taking a break right now from writing my editorial on near-monopoly corporate control over media outlets, notably the radio. I've found some really intersting stuff. Like did you know Clear Channel owns more than 8 of the radio stations in Kent County? Let's see, I've got a list somewhere...

96.1 FM WVTI
1300 AM WOOD
93.7 FM WBCT
101.3 FM WBFX
105.7 FM WOOD
1230 AM WTKG
104.5 FM WSNX
95.3 FM WBXX

If you notice, all those stations suck. They all have crappy DJs that like to wake you up with their intulectual disscussions about why men fart more than women and such. And then every five minutes they play an advertisment for their station proclaiming its diversity and choice of genre, inbetween commercials that arn't even half entertaining. Then every 45 minutes or so they play some dry piece of electronically edited crap. Isn't music supposed to be one of the highest and most staggeringly beautiful and moving forms of communication? They are destroying it...

oh well, we've all probably heard about Neo Jerusalem. I mean the physical one. Then everything will be perfect, we'll have no more corruption or greed or half-baked efforts. And we'll be with Jesus. I gotta get hoping about that more...

I'm so tired. I wanna go ta bed. Drat, my rittings giong bad... o no...

To my Fellow Metalheads

Haha, I don't think there're any here.

I just found the BEST metal band I've ever heard. It's called

DEMON HUNTER

They're extreemly cool. You can find MP3 samples on Godcore. Some say they're a Slipknot knock-off, but I think they're much better. The best thing is that no one knows for sure who the real members are. They keep changing their names and looks and stuff. And of course they're a Christian band (why else would you be on Godcore?).

So yeah like any of you care. I just wanted to talk. I want their CD.... *drools*

I don't think I'm ever going to listen to j-pop ever again.

Alright, full story of me and my stupidity.. I found this j-pop artist I really liked, I think she's called Takao Minekawa... I really liked her style and her weird yet cute music videos... she was all innocent looking and I read she used to be a child actor- so I'm really getting into her songs... and I find one and listen to it, got a good beat... and at the end is this recording of her and some machine voiced thing having sex.

My brain is poisened.........

We lost last night :(. Oh well the band rocked. I guess I'm getting depressed, last the game I was all pumped up and into the game, and now I don't even care we lost. But then again I'm not swearing my head off, which I'm trying to stop. Yeah, I guess I just need some energy.

Homecoming dance tonight. See y'all. God bless.

All I've ever captured was this hat, and I hate it.
The trees turned overnight, didn't they? I saw this really cool, bright magenta one on the way home.

Not much else to say. Kinda tired. See ya.

Arrrr, me mateys.

Today was pirate day at school- I wore a black bandana and an eyepatch. Yo ho ho. Yeah. I felt a little dorky at first, sense everyone else was too cool to do anything for it, but after a while I thought, hey, its me. Who cares.
My calc teacher sure didn't like it, though.

God showed me that I've been thinking all about myslef and not about Him or others- yeah, basically I'm getting more and more selfish, I'm going to try to stop. With his grace, of course.

I'm a little hyper. And happy. I love these ups after I've been down.

Have a good night. God bless you.
