life in general

Tomorrow I have a Chemistry test so I can't chat much. I wanted to just update you guys. I also just posted a bunch of new pictures on my picture blog, so you all need to check them out and comment please.
We had play practice today which went well. I need to work on my lines. Tonight I think I shall read them all out loud before I go to bed. I am sorta behind on emails at the moment so I was also planning on replying to some stuff before I get sleep. Please excuse me if I haven't responded in a while. I have been doing a whole bunch of school lately. The good thing is that this week is slightly better then last week, or next week for that matter.
I have had a fairly good day. How about you guys? I talked to my dear friends Valerie and Alissa on the phone. Which always makes my life a little brighter. I also talked to Margaret briefly when I got home from Biblestudy today something rather funny happened:

Becca: Margaret, did you know that Vacuums suction is measured by atm's and that is what we learning about in Chemistry this week.

Margaret: Mom, what is our vacuum’s atm? Bec, what is atm anyway?

Becca: You know, how much a vacuum sucks.

Margaret: So, is it good if a vacuum sucks?

Both girls: *laughing*

Well here is today's Proverb:
"The man tormented by the guilt of murder will be a fugitive till death; let no one support him."
Proverbs 28:17


Sunday, February 27

Ok well today was a good day. I wanted to tell you that I had good Sabbath and that God is so awesome. Some of you already know that, but He is. Let's sing praises to Him! I can't wait until next Lord's Day!

This is a part of my post that I wanted to dedicate this part of my post to friends. Not just the kind of friends that are like telling you what you want to hear when you want to hear it, but the kind that care about you enough to be there for you even when you don't want to hear it. So here's to friends. We all have friends and we all need to thank them. They do more for us then we or they could ever know.

So thank you friends.

Proverb of the day is:
"Without wood a fire goes out; without gossip a quarrel dies down."
Proverbs 26:29

Saturday, February 26

Me. This is sorta true. What do you think?

Becca, you are moderately right-hemisphere dominant and have even preferences between auditory and visual processing, traits that might make people perceive you as "slightly off balance."

You are most likely to be slightly disorganized, a "dreamer" and a person who focuses more on the end result than the immediate task at hand. You are creative and spontaneous if somewhat lacking in direction and focus. You are a learner who is generally patient and a person for whom time is an ally, not an enemy.

You are more passionate than most people with regard to life and learning and recognize your own intuitive abilities. You have sufficient goal-direction to satisfy yourself and guarantee success without being or feeling driven. You are willing to be reflective about yourself and others without getting lost in rumination.

The balance of your sensory modes allows for both learning and expressive capabilities achieved by few. You are active and "seeing" while retaining an equally strong propensity for being reflective which slows you down a little but allows for a more comprehensive perception and analysis of situations and problems. You do not spend excessive time analyzing since you mostly trust your perceptions.

In all likelihood, you have a tendency to overcommit and cannot under- stand why others get upset since you operate on a different "time table" than they do. Your organizational abilities are frequently overwhelmed by the stimulation seeking and active nature of your mind as well as by the tendency to create new categories and gloss over details, making categorization and classification almost impossible at times.

To the extent that your career path allows for creativity and abstraction as well as a bit of disorganization, you should find yourself equipped to handle any learning that is required. Your own personal adjustment to your style should come naturally although you are likely to feel frus- trated by your own limited discipline and often wonder "Why?"

It's been a while since I posted anything of direct relation to my life

Well today is Sunday, or Sabbath as I like to refer to it. Our pastor James preached a very good sermon this morning. All of you need to see the picture/post below. I am very desperate.

Well here is the Proverb of the day:
"Blows that hurt cleanse away evil, as do stripes the inner depths of the heart."
Prverbs 20:30

Can someone else me understand this. I think it is talking about how suffering makes us cleaner and holier people, but is there not another message? What do you think it means?

Oh people people people, I got another blog. You all must go!

This is a pizza card. I have to sell 30 of these babies. I have sold 3. I know I am a sad sad little person. Anyways, I would be most happy if any of you were willing to $10 for me and my sad little life.  Posted by Hello

What Does Your Name Mean?

here you go guys:





You Are 18 Years Old



18





Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.



What Age Do You Act?

I thought this was funny

I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there.



I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.



I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.



I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.



The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.



If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.



And last but not least: I don't exercise because it makes the ice jump right out of my glass.

benefits of coffee

May reduce the risk of suicide among women.
Helps prevent gallstones and symptomatic gallbladder disease in men.
Contains caffeine-related compounds (theophylline) that can alleviate the symptoms of asthma in some cases.
Can increase alertness and prolong waking hours.
May improve short-term recall.
Promotes the effectiveness of certain migraine drugs.

All I need is love but I'll settle for coffee.

Happy Valentines everyone!

I hate Valentines, because I never get anything from anyone. Though this year I hate it way more then ever before. Daddy did leave a present under my pillow yesterday becuase he left for Spain so he is gone today, but that doesn't really count. I mean it does becuase it's going to be the only thing I get this year, and I really do appresiate the thought, but he is my Dad.

Anyways I am offically starting the "Denial Valentine Club". Anyone else who doesn't get anything on this wreched holiday can celebrate with me. We are going to post encouraging comments, I may give all members a specail token or something to prove their loyalty, and perhaps we will even make eachother denial Valentine cards. Think about all you can do to help your deprived buddies while I try to figure out the best way to get a party at my babysitting job tonight. Our officail sociaty verse:

the Proverb of the day:
"The Backslider in heart will be filled with his own ways, but a good man will be satisfied from above."
Proverbs 14:14

It's ok guys, Jesus loves us.

Well today is a beautiful day. For all of you people who hate rainy winters... it's your day! The sun is so bright I can hardly look outside without "feeling" the sun's heat. Anyways.

I have so much to read this weekend. I relaly shouldn't even be on right now but I wanted to tell everybody I was having a great day, because you all care so much about me (thanks guys).

Here's the Proverb of the day. I want you all to think about this one:
"Anxiety in the heart of a man cause depression, but a good word makes it glad."
Proverbs 12:25


Friday, February 11

Well I wasn't really trying to start a discussion of the topic of wine, but I am glad that for the most part we all agree. I mean I think that it is good we have our own opinions and are willing to defend them. Anyways, not too much is going on here.

I just got ready to go to class... and I perhaps should spend a little more time reading and highlighting my Worldviews but it is mostly done. Mom and I are going to Luke's game this evening, so I have to leave class a little early.

Tomorrow I am going to help serve at the couple's dinner, which will be fun. I've been telling people I'm going. Hahah, it's kinda funny cuz most of them pretend not to care, but then look rather upset at the prospect. Of course after I lead them on for a while I always explain that I am just serving.

I got a good nights sleep last night which was wonderful. Yet, I have so much to do for Mr. P's class this week I think it will be one of the last in a while.

Well here is yesterdays Proverb of the day:
"Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sins"
Proverbs 10:12

Today is Keziah's 1/2 birthday! She is six months old, go her.

Here is the Proverb of the day (I really like this one):
"A gracious woman retains honor, but ruthless men retain riches."
Proverbs 11:16

some interesting information

On Monday evening I cut my chin. Now for some of the male population that may not be an uncommon occurrence but I don't think I have ever cut my chin before. Oddly it is a paper cut. Yes, I was at Bible study and I turned my head to face my dear friend Margaret who was speaking, and in the process my skin came in contact with my brand new workbook that I had resting on my knees. The cut is still there, and it looks like a slice from a sharp blade. I think it looks kinda cool.

Anyways here is the Proverb of the day:
"Come, eat my food and drink the wine I have mixed."

I think this is very cool. The Bible has no problem whatsoever with people occasionally drinking wine. In fact wine is seen as a blessing.

hey guys

Well I am at home with just Kez. Which is very fun because we don't get quality time together much. I thing is I poured myself some coffee (the first of the day) and while I was walking to set it down I slipped some on Kez because she kicked my mug. Now she smells very yummy.

Well I am rather tired because I have been staying up too late, but it's my fault. I like to do school at night, and so I like would much rather procrastinate all day and then stay up late working on stuff.

I need to go guys. Have a great day. I will try to get a Proverb on here soon.

Ok I know this is long but it is very funny... be sure to still read other posts below

More Things I Learned From The Movies

Author Unknown

SIGNALS

If a tapping sound or flashing light represents morse code, there's always someone around that can interpret the message. When Morse Code is used, the interpreter will call out words as they are being sent, rather than letters. Furthermore, a single word is represented by a few "beeps", and all words are sent at the same rate, no matter how long the word is. Example:

beep-beep-be-beep... "Help..."
be-be-beep beep... "Us...."
beep-be-be-beep beep... "We're..."
beep beep-be-beep... "Surrounded..."
be-beep beep beep... "Send..."
be-be-be-beep beep... "Reinforcements..."
beep be-beep beep... "Hurry..." etc.

A message in Morse Code will start several seconds before someone actually interprets it; however, no information is lost, as the message actually begins when the interpreter starts to read it.

SKYDIVING

You got plenty of time up there, often a couple of minutes. You can almost talk casually to all your skydiving friends on the way down. If you don't have a parachute, just cling on to someone who has got one and don't let go until you're down.

SMOKING

Smokers smoke only when there is a romantic or dramatic reason to. At other times the smoker has no need for cigarettes.

SPACE & VACUUM

Explosions in space make noise. Exposure to a vacuum makes you horribly swell up and/or explode within seconds (ex. "Total Recall", "Outland") There's a deep humming in space, no doubt about it. Space is not Newtonian; spacecraft can't 'coast' but just stops dead if it runs out of fuel or power. Laser beams are visible in a vacuum.

SPACESHIPS

Spaceships make noise! Spaceships always fly perpendicular to the same axis. When two spacecraft encounter each other, they're always aligned on a plane and never approach at odd angles. All spaceships, no matter how small, have internal artificial gravity and no matter how badly your ship gets pummeled by the evil aliens in the evil alien ship, no matter how many external panels get blown away, no matter how many sparks or how much smoke pours out of your control panels, the artificial gravity will always keep working. There are tiny cameras mounted everywhere, on every panel, in your spaceship. No matter what happens anywhere in the ship, you will always be able to ask the computer to replay the scene for you later (even if the computer went up in smoke) and unlike those blurry convenience store cameras, your tiny ship cameras always capture everyone's actions at eye-level with perfect lighting.

Warp or hyper-drive will always fail at critical moments. Inertial dampers will always prevent passengers from being plastered against the walls during acceleration into warp speed, yet any explosion will send passengers reeling across the room. In a spaceship battle scene, for a ship to fire a weapon at another, it must be in visual range. Even though the 20th century saw the advent of weapons that can be fired without visual contact, the people of the future have lost this technology.

SPORTS

In any type of sport movie, a player on the field can look up into a crowd of 1 billion and immediately spot their loved one.

STAIRS

Whenever anyone is chased to a staircase, s/he will run upstairs rather than down.

SUSPENSE

In any movie where "something" has happened and villagers come to look at it, they always decide to "go for help". The most expendable member of the group is left to "keep an eye on it", and supplied with a weapon or signaling device "in case something happens". Said member ALWAYS responds: "What could happen?" This is a certain signal that he will die, gruesomely, within 2 minutes.

TEENAGERS

The walls of a teenager's bedroom or a twentyish adult's apartment are always highly decorated, beyond anything sane, with every available inch of space covered with something cool. A movie teenager will always have a drainpipe situated next to his or her window. This drainpipe will be specially reinforced to hold their weight on escape.

TIME

Movie timing is always exact. If a phone trace will take two minutes, for example, you can be sure that that means 120 seconds, not a fraction more or less. Same for bombs, amount of time to get to a destination, etc. Corollary to the above: all characters in a movie have their watches perfectly synchronized.

TRAFFIC

When a main character has to cross the street (in one of the slower parts of the movie), he/she can always cross the street immediately. Of course, he/she jogs across in order to miss the one car that drives by after they cross. If there is traffic, then that means that the movie is at a more intense part (like a chase scene) in which case there are a lot of cars that crash into each other. None of the important characters get hurt, the accident is never heard on the news, and nobody sues anybody important. Very few people even get out of their cars, and yet, no airbags are to be seen.

TRAVEL

Transportation always arrives and leaves on time. Characters arrive at the airport and get *right on the plane*. They must have the best timing of any people on Earth - I always have wait around for a while before boarding. (Not to mention getting a boarding pass and the "arrive 15 minutes before departure or you lose your seat" clause of most airlines. Good thing movie airlines never overbook!) Movie characters' suitcases are always weightless when they have to carry them. In emergencies, anyone can pick up flying a helicopter. Movie characters never suffer from motion sickness.

TREES

Whichever tree branch the hero has perched on, the villain will invariably pause under.

VILLAINS

The bad guy is the foreigner. Corollary: the foreigner is the guy who speaks English with an English accent. You can always tell which nationality the United States and the popular media are currently most unhappy with because that nation sends all their villains to star in Hollywood movies during those times (e.g. Germans in the late 40's and 50's, Asians in the 60's and 70's, Soviets in the 70's and 80's and Middle Easterners in the 90's).

The bad guy also has a side-kick muscleman who has some sort of trademark gimmick that he/she uses to eliminate opponents. You must kill or decommission this muscleman by forcing a backfiring of this trademarked gimmick. If the muscleman is dispatched by a different method, he/she is not dead. (For that matter, don't assume that anyone is dead unless their death was spectacular. Beware sequels.) The bad guy usually kills his henchman for failing, yet doesn't seem to run out of loyal henchmen.

Bad guys lurk until their presence is revealed by a flash of lightning. Whenever a villain has captured the hero, he will pause for 5 minutes to tell the hero _every_ detail of his plan to destroy and/or rule the earth, including times, dates, and addresses. Instead of simply offing the captured good guy on the spot, he will devise some sort of drawn-out, fiendishly clever method of execution that will take enough time to allow the good guy to figure out his escape. The bad guy will usually spend a few megalomaniac minutes gloating over his victory and his opponent's downfall. This increment of time will prove just enough to allow the good guy to figure a way out of his predicament, or just long enough to allow a rescue attempt.

You can kill the bad guy by taking careful note of any object that the camera has lingered on for an unnecessarily length of time; typically this is something like a meathook or a jagged bit of glass. You will be involved in a mighty struggle, and at the appropriate time you can become inspired (usually by either an insult from the bad guy or a look of faith from your love interest) with strength enough to force the bad guy into/onto/under/in front of the aforementioned object. Actor's Equity (Hollywood) requires that within 15 seconds either side of the bad guy's demise, you utter your trademark phrase.

No matter how dead you think you've killed a bad guy, he can still get up at least 3 more times. Therefore, always make sure to leave his gun in or near his hand after you've killed him and you turn away to comfort the girl. When a villain seems dead, he never is. He will always be allowed one, and sometimes two resurrections. The hero will frequently see him coming, even if his back is turned. If he doesn't, a friend will finish the villain off.

hello

Is it just me or did this last week go terribly slow? I mean I don't think I had a slower/worser week all year and that is saying a whole bunch because I have a real hard life people. Anyways this one should be better. Tomorrow I have play practice, fun I think, and we also have Spanish. I love Spanish, because I get to see Margaret and the language is so... inspiring *evil laugh*.

Well I haven't had coffee for like 50 hours which knowing me that is huge. Yes, it is very difficult for me. Some may think it is because Dr. Ganz made me feel guilty and it's not true *waaa*. I just know deep down that it isn't the best for me. Not that it isn't bad, it just isn't good... yeah.

Well I shall go now. Talk to you later guys.

I'm here

Hi guys. Today is a very warm day considering it is Feburary. I just hope that we will get some spring soon. This afternoon I may watch the Village, cuz Luke really wants me to. Yesterday I took the SAT. Actually it was just a practice but we sat there for 5 hours. The cool thing is that they have the essay section now. I am not the best writer but I can wip up some good thoughts on paper as well as the next guy.

I am going to put a Proverb here now. I guess I will just start with the 6th chapter even though I haven't posted every day.
Wow, this chapter is about sleep. I can't just pick one, so pardon me as I indulge in the wisdom from on high.

"How long will you slumber, O sluggard? When will you rist from your sleep?" Proverbs 6:9



"These are six things the Lord hates, yes, even seven are an abomination to Him:
A proud look,
A lying tongue,
Hands that shed innocent blood,
A heart that devises wicked plans,
Feet that are swift in running to evil,
A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who sows discord amoung brethren."
Proverbs 6:16-19

Ok I guess that is all about sleep... but the list is like a perfect discription of America. We better start praying you guys because God HATES these things.

Man Vs Woman



1.NAMES

If Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla, Peanut-Head and Scrappy.



2.EATING OUT

When the bill arrives, Mark, Chris, Eric and Tom will each throw in $20, even though it's only for $32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.

When the women get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.



3.MONEY

The average number of items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify most of these items.



5.ARGUMENTS

A woman has the last word in any argument.

Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.



6.CATS

Women love cats.

Men say they love cats, but when women aren't looking, men kick cats.



7.FUTURE

A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.

A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.



8.SUCCESS

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.

A successful woman is one who can find such a man.



9.MARRIAGE

A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.

A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change and she does.



10.DRESSING UP

A woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the garbage, answer the phone, read a book, and get the mail.

A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.



11.NATURAL

Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed.

Women somehow deteriorate during the night.



12.OFFSPRING

Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favorite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.

A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.



13.THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Any married man should forget his mistakes.

There's no use in two people remembering the same thing.



AND FINALLY..... A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, jack asses, and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically, "Relatives of yours?"

"Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."

Slow Dance

Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

Do you run through each day
On the fly?
When you ask "How are you?"
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say "Hi"?

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.
Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.

No one seems to care much about my blog anymore. It seems like the few people who were commenting now just don't. At any rate I have piles of work to do but I decided that giving a Proverb would do good to my little soul.

"The Lord stores wisdom for the upright; He is a sheild for those who walk unrightly"
Proverbs 2:7

Proverbs 1:7
