Twas' a merry Christmas

A very nice Christmas indeed! I went Pennsylvania to see lots of family i haven't seen in a (very long) time while as well as lots of very good friends. (names are withheld to protect the innocent ;-)

And yes, for those of you who haven't heard, our Aunt Laurie has died on the 21 of December. Danny has done an excellent post about her on his blog

She is now perfect and complete in Heaven.




This is the very first picture posted with my new canon digital camera. (which exlpains why it's a tad blurry)(yes it was a Christmas gift for those who can't put 2 and 2 together) It's a very very nice camera and i'm not trying to brag or anything just letting you all reap the benefits of it as well. um...ya. Anywho, that's about it for now, hope you all had a very merry Christmas too, feel free to leave a comment describing your merry Christmas, if you still feeling the Christmas spirit!

Christmastime

well, i dutifully slept in the past two days to recover from exam week. The exams went surprisingly well, with like a C my lowest in dagum government. The rest were quite pleasing. So, i won't keep ya'll in suspense any more.....i did get to Columbia just fine. I picked up Davy and then Danny calls us and says his car broke down so he's going to use ours to go to work. So we stayed at his house for ....a while. But that was fun because i got to download all the "fun stuff" i wanted to with his high speed.

That's about it Ya'll have a very Merry Christmas , and don't forget to watch "A Charlie Brown Christams". And i also think it's flat out wrong to be over 65 degrees in December, like it is here. and don't forget:

(really cool website by the way: http://www.biblegateway.com/ )

Luke 3:8-15, 20


8
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night.
9An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.
10But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.
11
Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ[a] the Lord.

12
This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."

13Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
14"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."

15When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, "Let's go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about."

20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas

This week, my mom, sister and foster baby have gone to see my aunt with cancer in Pennsylvania and my dad is on China on buisness. So that leaves me here 'home alone'! And in sheer coinsidence most of the nieghbours have left for Christmas vacation. This is why I say it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas (or at least "home alone 4") But my parents will be back on Monday or something =D and i've had at least half my friends and family offer to have me over for dinner or "call me if you need anything", and even an offer to stay at a friends house.
The plus side is I get to try all the microwaveable food I've wanted to try and i ever will want to try for a good long while. Though easy mac isn't too bad....or those mini pizzas....

I haven't posted in a little while because this is also exam week. Then: NO SCHOOL FOR TWO WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : {D (that's a smiley face that got so happy it grew a mustache!! and yes i better stop now because i don't know where this is going)

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Reality

Ya, even a little reality has a mean left hook. Ok, so it's not that bad, but i locked my keys in my car on Wednesday, and was half an hour late to work. (Yes, i had a wire coathanger and screwdriver, but it was much safer and had less chance of repairs to call my mommy) So, i got to work but there's really never anything to do anyways....although i did learn how to drill holes to put gears on motors. Yay! something new! But all in all that's not that bad. Just very annoying.

I went to a garage band show Friday night. very cool. they were pretty hard music; played alot of Skillet stuff. Very, very nice Christian guys and gals. Then one of my friends played his acoustic set, and that was very cool. He is also a very cool Christian guy, but sorry, he's not on itunes, yet ;-) So, ya that's about it....I tried downloading some software apps from the library today just because downloading almost anything with dial-up is a no-no. But the security stuff at the library wouldn't let me download anything either. So all the fun stff (itunes, napster, google software, etc.) will have to wait till college =-(

I'll leave you all with this simple message that's been said many times in many ways:

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!
