Just ask "Please"

I had another boringly fun day today. (That seems redundant, "day today"...idk...it is I guess.) apart from that it wasn't too bad. I woke up at 9:00 after staying up late last night. I could not go to sleep so I ended up praying a lot. The last time I remember seeing on my phone was 2:30 something, like 2:34? I watched my little sister, Midge, from a lil' before 10:00 when my mom took Jeff down to work then went to the local school here to look at enrolling my little sister into nursery school. So during this time I went upstairs and played a little Merc 2 for an hour, and Midge told me instead of throwing the people out of the tanks...my little sister told me, "You don't need to grab him, you just ask PLEASE." She is such a saint-ess...not really.

I went to Awana after spending the day cleaning up my room some more. I picked up all the clothes and put the clean ones away. I don't know how I ever ended up with such a messy room...I always used to keep it clean...but I was always in it...now I am never in it and it keeps getting messy. Anywaz, at Awana I listened to my two guys. Unfortunately they did not have anything for me to sign tonight...and we never finished anything.

I got home and my brother who is married called. I talked to him for a good half hour or so about his modifications that he is making to his guitars. He is the one who got me into making my own. I had some good times talking with a couple of my very good friends tonight...and late into this morning. (As it is currently 12:30a.m. as I write/type this.) But after the neutral day I had today (referring to Wednesday) this morning (Thursday) I have had a good lesson. Talking about relationships, and who is first in them...is it the other person...or is it God?

Starting out...

I have wanted to blog for a while now, but never really knew were to go. This works I guess...I'll tell you a little about what I did on Wednesday. I woke up about 6-ish to take a shower and all that; but I didn't have class today, so I left to go skiing at Bristol Mountain, it was pretty icy, but warm, around 50 degrees. Most of the double diamond trails were closed because of lack of snow or the high school girls' racing stuff.

It was me and some friends, Jac, Brad, Jordan (who is the only one that doen't ski, he snowboards), and their mom; we raced quite a bit (my legs are still feeling it); I love the trill of speeding down the hill knowing That I'm not that good and one wrong move will pretty much send me flying out of control. I found that I enjoy racing other people, even if I know I can't win! I could still beat Jordan, Jac, and their mom...but not Brad, he's been skiing for many more years than me; seeing as i have only skied on full year now (which translates into about 8 times actually skiing).

I fell twice in the same spot in an attempt to get an edge on Brad. My ski broke halfway though the terrain park...well...not my ski really, but the brake that normally resides under your boot, yeah, that fell off. The guys at the lift helped me out; they fixed it so i could at least finish out a couple slopes before we left. Well we all skied from 9 in the morning till about 3 in the afternoon, we didn't use the full eight hours cause the rain was getting pretty bad.

The ride home was pretty uneventful, Jordan slept, Jac read her book, their mom drove and Brad just talked...I did nothing...(I am boring.) One thing that did happen was I learned that one of my friends from school just engaged so that was pretty cool, I don't know the girl, but that's ok for now.

We got back home the my friends' house and unpacked all the ski stuff. I showed Jac how to post pics and videos on facebook before we left for youth group at my church. I am a "listener" for the TNT (Tweens iN Traning) 4th though 6th graders. One of the kids i listen too, Noah, just finished his book, we are talking about memorizing over 100 verses of the Bible; plus the books of the Bible, Old and New Testament; very cool if you ask me.

To close this up, I don't want this to be all about me...even though I'm such an awesome person..(jk). But really, I am rereading though the book of Joshua, and God has been teaching me to really trust on Him, and in His time. Hopefully I will keep current with this and try to make it interesting for you.
