The Ballet

Heartlife headed out the door to go downtown, to see a ballet called "Bach meets Africa"

Randall came with us, he always seems find a way to make someone laugh.

We all waited right outside the door to the Keller Auditorium for about half an hour in the cold weather. It was freezing, some of us resorted to the warmth of a graphic flame on my ipod touch, or the last drops of Brendan's mocha.

We played games to pass the time

Finally we were let inside the auditorium. We went up a few flights of stairs and to aisle 4.

Watching the performers practice was something I had seen about 4 times already, but it is still very entertaining. They do so many things that I can't imagine being able to do. 

"Bach meets africa" was a pretty amazing show, the scenes were really cool, how they used shadows. Click here to learn more.

I enjoyed seeing the many tall buildings in Portland once again. I love architecture, who knows, maybe I will be an architect when I grow up.

Junk Drawers

All junk drawers are different. Some are clean and organized (like above, sort of)

Compared to those that truly have integrity in the sense of the word "Junk Drawer" (below)

Some drawers cause headaches at the first glimpse, and some make one feel peaceful.

Whatever it is that your drawer holds, it doesn't matter if it is organized well, as long as it works for you. 

If you have a messy drawer and it helps you because you know where things are even if they're location doesn't make any sense, then your doing perfectly fine.

  If you can't bare things not being organized, than that is perfectly fine as well, and definitely a good way to live. Everything is fine unless you try to persuade someone to change their lifestyle to be more organized.

An afternoon at the mall

My dad took my sister and I to the mall after church this last saturday.

I think the main reason we went their was because Karly wanted to buy some shoes with the money that she recently learned she had from an old bank account.

 Next we went across the food court, down the escalator and through the koi pond area. We weaved around kiosks and crowds of people.

Finally we ended up at Journeys. Karly looked around at the shoes, and had a hard time choosing as always. She asked me which of two pairs I liked better. I liked the ones that she decided not to get. She got these black shoes with black and purple shoes laces. 

When I was in the store, I randomly bought a pair of bright yellow-neon shoe laces. I had to get something. Karly said they weren't made for tennis shoes. I had to admit they look a lot better on skater shoes or whatever you call them.

The three of us went back to the movie stand and my dad bought tickets for 'Twilight" It was a really awesome movie. And thats it for our day at the mall. After that we went home and did other things.

A Sunny Day

Today it is sunny, my worries are free, 

I am full with the warmth, I can finally see...

The dark shades and dark shadows from past days are gone,

Now only brightness comes down from the sun...

So bright, and so warm and so hard to resist,

It is also so hard to watch long...

The trees soak it in as I watch the warm world,

The light of God's spirit is here, I can feel it...

At last I am warm, I am here, I am found, 

  At last I am free and I can't here a sound,

        I know there is life and goodness around,

            And at last I know how comfort is found...

Life Can Be Stressful

You know what? 

Life can be stressful, and sometimes you can't do anything about it. Sometimes you are trying as hard as you can and you are just too tired to do anything. Sometimes you are stressed out so much that you just completely procrastinate on everything that is supposedly important in your life. I would have to say that that is what I am doing right now. I should be doing my homework, but instead I am writing about stress. 

I don't feel completely stressed out. I feel really good, I feel like I am accomplishing what I want in my life. I like being creative, I like posting random paragraphs about stress on the web so everyone knows that I have an opinion, so that everyone thinks I can do creative and compelling things.

This morning I got up, had breakfast, took a shower, and finished editing a video. Do you want to see the video? 

There it is below.

Did you like it? No? oh, yes? oh, ok, whatever.

Yeah I have been procrastinating quite a bit. The only thing that I did that was homework was getting familiar with iMovie 09. That was homework because I am teaching a class tomorrow where I get to teach my fellow class mates how to edit a video in iMovie.  I really hope that everyone has it. iMovie 09 is new, so not everyone has it. Tomorrow is also the last set of people the V-team (the video team) is teaching. They come in sets of 3 or 4. The set was really good. We were saying that we thought they were going to be the ones to be the next video team. Who knows, maybe tomorrow's set will be better.

Well, I hope you had fun reading this post. I sure had fun writing it. It was a lot of thought to organize. When I write it seams more like organizing than just writing, the word "thought" in my mind seams to be expressed as organization.

There's a deeper meaning

I have always wondered about the deeper meaning to things. There are so many things in this universe to think about, that I wonder if everything really does have a deep meaning. Are there just so many that it would take a completely dedicated devotional deep thinker to understand everyone of them. I certainly feel sometimes like I think about everything deeply, but don't count on it.

You may be wondering why there is a picture of cookies above, if you were, than you are doing exactly what I want you to do. Thinking leads to so many ideas that can cause you to make wise decisions and smart choices. 

Have a good day and remember to do something productive instead of watching T.V.
