Roll Tide

Well, once again I have forgotten to mention another important part of my life. I love Alabama football. This season we have watched just about every one of Bama's games with some of my best friends the Macs. In fact, during our trip to Wind Creek we crowded into a small hotel's dining room to watch the Alabama/Old Miss game....which was interesting, because the TV we were watching had a warped screen or something so half the players looks massive and the rest were normal size. So far Alabama is #2 in the country, I hope they stay that way and get to go to the National Championship. The past few games I haven't been very pleased by Alabama's offense though. I don't know how it is possible to have such a great defense and a mediocre offense. Anyway, hopefully the Macs and my family will be able to cheer them on to victory when they play Tennessee tomorrow.

Roll Tide!

The Lack of Frisbee in my life

About 20 minutes ago I almost chocked on my pizza a horrible thought hit me. I have completely forgot to write about one of my favorite things in the world--Ultimate Frisbee, or more importantly the lack of Frisbee I've had lately. Last week we were camping with the Ws and the Macs and so, because of our amazing selves wouldn't be there, they canceled ultimate. However, tomorrow I am taking the PSAT....and they are still having ultimate. No one has thought to spare me the pain of missing Frisbee by canceling it again. *sob* However, the fact that I have gone two weeks without Frisbee been just really annoying. Not annoying, depressing. So tomorrow I will be stuck for 3+ hours taking the PSAT instead of playing the greatest game ever made. Words can not describe my sadness.

No Swim!...this morning....

I woke up this morning and I was overjoyed. No swim! It was already 7:15! Words can not describe my happiness at that moment. However, just a few minutes later, my mom broke horrible news. "Since it is very cold today you don't have to go to swim....this morning." Now I don't think I have described the other swim team....you see the love hate relationship I have with swim team is only with the MORNING swim with the HOMESCHOOL group. I just plain hate the afternoon swim. See, the morning swim is mainly for the homeschoolers that are too wimpy to go to the afternoon swim, like me. So my dear friends, pray for me as I go to afternoon swim today, pray that I'll be strong, pray that I'll do my best, and pray that I don't break down and cry during the 2 dozen 50 sprints we are sure to do.

A weekday

As I sit here this morning in my red chair and sigh. Another weekday.... weekdays are sometimes fun but there are so many of them! Endless days of school and things of that sort. Don't get me wrong I do enjoy school very much, but sometimes I wish that there were 3 days in a weekend (wait that doesn't make since, shouldn't a weekend only be one day since it is a week-end?) anyway I thought I would just let everyone know my opinion on that. Friday should be part of the no school no work day collection. Of course that wouldn't matter very much to my mom she works on weekends a lot. I guess I haven't written yet how freakishly awesome she is. She home-schools me and my little brother G, takes care of our home, cooks dinner every day and sometimes lunch, and works as a nurse. She is like some kinda superhero. I can see it now....corny 80's tv show and everything. She would have little action figures and all the little children would want one. Then there would be a big budget movie trilogy made about her once the tv show was dead and gone. Anyway that concludes today's post.

Judges 5:3 " Hear this you kings listen you rulers! I will sing to the LORD, I will sing; I will make music to the LORD the God of Israel."

C.S. Lewis: "A man can no more diminish God's glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word, 'darkness' on the walls of his cell."

Stargate Quote Eli SGU episode 3 " I have a gun! *click*"

Stargate or the gift of God to man through the wonderfulness of a corny, but somehow awesome show that encompasses everything that makes life livable

Well I think the title is a good introduction, I believe that Stargate is the best work of human imagination possible ( various God inspired works aside) I was introduced to this incredible, amazing, outstanding, and *special* show about a year ago by three of my best friends, L, EA, and CW. Since then I have watched seven out of ten SG1 seasons on hulu( the greatest website ever to be discussed in a later post) and most of the rest of the series on our DVR (which will also be praised later on) I have watched all but 4 episodes of the 5 seasons of Stargate Atlantis (which is inferior in some aspects to SG1 but still incredible) and all three of the episodes released so far of SGU which really shouldn't count as Stargate because it is completely different(It is actually *gasp* well acted, produced, and shot with state of the art special effects and a serious story line!) and the fact that the last 3 hours tv time were spent watching the characters of SGU fight and try to find air hence the name of the episodes, was just plain stupid. Regardless I will still watch the show until the bitter end (which will either be it being canceled or some kinda freakish change with the morals of the show, which would then result in a very strict banning) I doubt either one of those will happen however, the show is probably going to be loved by critics and last forever and I still have enough faith in the writers of Stargate to believe that they won't make the show nasty. I will have more comments on all the episodes of SGU as the show progresses--My comment for the last two episodes is " there is hope for this show...although it has lost some of it's spirt it has potential especially if they get of the dang ship" I suddenly realized that no one will get this unless they have actually watched the show which means L, CW and maybe Co will get it. But of course if you have actually read this whole poorly written post on which many consider to be a nerd show (although the application of "nerd" to anything is dependent on one's own opinions) you probably are already in love with Stargate and know what I mean. I think I might need to end this post now. I promise that I will have many MANY comments on Stargate in previous posts.

First real post

First Post! (I don't have anything to write)

Well I really don't have much to say, but I guess I better write something, (this being a blog and all.) I guess I should write a bit about myself. I don't think it would be wise to use my full name or that sort of thing, I don't want anything used against me when I'm rich and famous and running for president :p. I guess I could go so far as to say that I'm fifteen, a christian, love music, and my church Grace Chelsea. I play in the youth band there with some of my best friends CW, Co, E, L, Kt, A, and the rest of our wonderful troop. When our youth pastor, Rick, left he put me and CW in charge of the youth group. There are few things more challenging than trying to fill the shoes of such a great leader. I had no idea how hard it was to keep the attention of 10 teenage kids in a practice. We try our best though and have a great time praising God. I am also homeschooled which is really cool. I used to like it because I could take only four or five hours a day to do school, but now it's a bit different. You can never do enough school in 9th grade! I work hard though and God has blessed me with a mind that is able to handle Geometry(fun) English(not so much) Koine Greek(the language everyone needs to speak) History(Awesome but time consuming) Guitar(The instrument of God :p) Vocabulary( I know most of it already) Christian Ethics( Taught by Davy Stephenson who can make watching paint dry interesting and educational) and swim team ( It's a love hate realationship.) Hopefully I'll be able to post a good deal and keep everyone updated with my life, although I think the people that read this will know more about my life than I do... Anyway, hope to post soon!
1 Corinthians 13:13"And now these three things remain: faith, hope, and love, but the greatest of these is love."
C.S. Lewis: "We are faced, then, with a frightening alternative. This man (Jesus) we are talking about either was(and is) just what He said or else a lunatic, or something worse. Now it seems to me obvious that He was neither a lunatic or a fiend: and consequently however strange or terrifying or unlikely it may seem....He was and is God."
