A Life Time of Adventures…
Posted by admin at 12:29 pm in All

During announcements Thursday, a group of people came up and talked about a nine week daycare. They said it was entirely volunteer, and that all housing, transportation, and meals would be paid for. They also said that it would be in Washington D.C. and that it started in the beginning of June and ended in the beginning of August. I am thinking about it.

I found a web site that is hilarious! It is called Epic Win FTW.

Anyway, I’ve got to study. Finals are next week and we have no school on Martin Luther King Day

Perdona Moi… :)

I like getting genuine comments from real people. You know, the comments that are not trying to sell me stuff. ;)

On the other hand, why is this article’s title in French you might ask? It is because I have signed up for the Cultural Immersion Weekend at Rhema. Woo hoo!!! It lasts two days. It is for the students in the third year missions group. You know, to help them experience going through air port security, and a little taste of culture shock. Ha ha… I want to be the person who can’t speak English. That, or a flight attendant…

Christmas was great! I got to visit my Mom and my Dad and my sisters. Molly really enjoyed playing in the snow. And I enjoyed throwing the snow at her. :D After all, isn’t that what big sisters are for? Molly also stayed at my apartment for New Years Eve. We stayed up late watching movies and eating candy. Misty was just happy to get the hotel room all to herself. She was also happy to be able to go to church. I raided the Wal-mart for all the ridiculously cheap Christmas candy. Heh heh… I think I still have some left… Now Wal-mart is putting up all that lovey dovey pink and red stuff. I just hope that they have Marshmellow Peeps this time.

I really enjoy getting comments from people in other countries about how they are doing. So if you want to leave a comment, don’t worry about it not being in English. I’ll just translate it.
Well, I gotta go. I am on my laptop in my truck parked in a parking lot using the Wi-fi to get internet reception. I feel like a cop. Ha ha…

The Russian Dilemma
Posted by admin at 4:31 pm in All

I got an interesting comment the other day. Now usually I do not post comments, or rather talk about them, but this one is different. So here it is:

Спешу поделиться новостью: обмен Яндекс.Денег на Вебмани и обратно больше официально не производится. Не знаю, какая их собака укусила, но сейчас обмен практически невозможен. Все крупные обменники, коими я пользовался переводы в данных направлениях просто не осуществляют. Порой приходилось с ЯД на WM переводить немалые суммы. И что теперь делать, ума не приложу.
Хорошо наверное тем, кто не пользуется электронной валютой, а по старинке - банковскими операциями, платёжками по факсу и тд)))

Translated from Russian to English (on Bing Translator):

Hurry to share news: Exchange of Yandex money transfer and back more formally. I don’t know what their dog bite, but now Exchange virtually impossible. All major automatics-I enjoyed transfers data directions simply do not implement. Sometimes had with poison to WM transfer considerable amount. And now to do crazy not intend.
Well maybe those who do not enjoy electronic currency, and handling-banking, platëžkami by fax and AP)))

Translated from Russian to English (on Google Translator):

I hasten to share the news: the exchange Yandeks.Deneg on Vebmani and back longer officially made. I do not know what their dog bites, but now the exchange is practically impossible. All major exchangers, koimi I enjoyed the translations in these areas simply do not exercise. Sometimes had to POISON on WM transfer considerable sums. And what to do now, I can not guess ..
Well maybe those who do not use e-currency, and the old-fashioned - banking, bills by fax, etc.)))

————————
Yandex is the Russian internet portal, or one of them, so to speak. It came out in the late 90s. What made me want to write about this comment is the fact is this:
I go through tons of junk comments everytime I log on. Most of them are foreign, and I can tell because the English is not good. Lately it has been advertisements for medicine (and I will not say which ones) but this one is different. Apparently there’s a currency exchange problem on the Russian internet or something (electronic transfers, etc.). I do not know what the “poison” part means. Decide for yourselves what you think about this.

Quite Contrary…

Here’s another video I found on Youtube:

Okay, sure it’s just the intro, but that’s better than nothing, right?

On the other hand, I am stuck between two things. I went online today, and was watching some Animaniacs clips and episodes. This is the stuff I grew up on. Animaniacs, Rugrats, Pokemon, Men in Black, etc. I look at them now and laugh. Then I think, is this really good for me? Shows like Animaniacs got over a million kids viewing them a week. This show was viewed for years in the late 90s and 00s. So many kids grew up with this, thinking this way, talking this way. Sure the cartoons now are pretty lame. But instead of the current “kids” shows being irreverant to everything like the shows of the past, they’ve narrowed the window, so to speak. Most of the Disney shows look downward on things like honoring your parents, dressing modestly, doing well in school, and the list goes on. Cartoon Network is leaning more toward the random comedy and morbid humor. Nickelodian has almost stopped producing cartoons and has more children acting out shallow, well-funded lives on shows where everything goes good for the main characters. There are no consequences, nothing. The “little kid” shows are so innocent, rarely have I seen any inuendo or anything in them. And then these innocent shows just switch over to immoral trash. People think it’s a big thing for a network to promote homosexuality and murder, but they think nothing of a network that promotes dishonor and immorality. It’s all done in baby steps. Come on people, use your brains!

Death on my Shoulder
Posted by admin at 3:17 pm in All

I’m at Wendy’s, using their free Wi-Fi. Heh heh… Of course, I’m not mooching off their internet. I bought a value meal for $3.24. :)
For those of you wondering about the title about this week’s blog, I’ll tell you the story. My dad let me borrow his laptop to use for free Wi-Fi areas. And since Halloween is coming up, Wendy’s has the store in Halloween decor. There are 2 outlets to plug this laptop in. I wanted to sit by myself and not by the giggling couple, so here I am. By a life-size grim reaper skeleton thing, complete with chains. I needed an outlet, and I wasn’t going to get all weird about it.
That brings me to the point I want to make. If you’re where you’re supposed to be, no matter how close the dangers keep getting, remember this: they can’t get you. That reminds me of all the missionaries out there. Living day to day by their inward witness, with God protecting you, the devil can’t get them. Even when they are on the run from the people who want to kill them. Just remember that “God prepares a table in the presence of my enemies.” Kinda encouraging huh?

2012
Posted by admin at 1:51 pm in All

Everybody hates having to buy a new calendar. That’s why the Mayans made a humungous calendar of sorts. They put so much work into it, that they must have said “Bad juju gonna happen when we gotta replace this one.” I mean come on, who makes a calendar that lasts 26,000 years. But seriously, people freak out when something’s gotta start over. I mean, look at Y2K. I remember as a kid going to Sam’s, and seeing people buying nothing but toilet paper and gallons of water. It would be kind of late for a movie for Y2K, but they’ve already made a movie for 2012. It’s kind of sad actually. It seems that there are more movies coming out lately that have nothing but fear in them. I mean, who doesn’t like watching important monuments get blown up by meteors and tidal waves? Anyway…

I was reading Revelation (I finished reading it a couple weeks ago.), and I thought it would make a good movie. But then I realize, this is actually going to happen. People are going to get so used to others saying, “The end is near!” And it’s true, the end is near. Closer than you think. Jesus is coming back. Soon. And when it truly matters, they won’t be ready. That is one of the reasons I and studying to become a missionary. Because I want people to at least have heard the Good News. That Jesus loves them. No more time for petty things. It’s time to get to work.

Adventure!!!!

Ah yes, the title of this blog is the word that Flapjack says. I know… Woot!
I’ve been stuck here, which isn’t a bad thing. I’m glad I have a place to stay and stuff. I am so looking forward to that Six Flags trip! I haven’t had an adrenaline rush in forever. There’s just one thing though… I am going to look online and see which rides go the fastest and spend more time twisting, turning, and upside down. I want a ride that is like the one I went on as a kid:
The Gyrosphere
It’s the only ride I’ve ever been on that was at least 3 minutes. It’s made out of 3 circles (one inside the other). And the way you ride it is extra cool! What you do is stand on the foot rests, and hold on to the hand bars at the top. Then the person running it buckles the stomach strap and feet straps. But that’s not the fun part. The fun part is when the person running it spins a big steering wheel, which causes the 2 inside circles to spin in every direction! Ha ha! That was wild!
And the good thing is that when I get on rides like that, I don’t get sick. It takes alot to make me barf as it is, not just some spinning around really fast.

I was watching some random videos on Youtube. I saw a video someone made of all the vulcan nerve pinches from the 60s. Spock is weird. Yet he is kinda cute. Shh… don’t tell anyone I said that. :) I don’t know about you, but the Spock in the 2009 Startrek movie is super cute! With his brown eyes and all! Not to mention Kirk with his pretty blue eyes! *sighs*

Okay, enough with that. On a much cooler note (Ha I said cooler), I was watching some MIB (for those of you don’t know, that’s “Men In Black”) videos on Youtube as well as still motion videos people had made for Star Wars (hilarious, by the way). I would so like to just be able to hop into videos like MIB and Star Trek and do whatever without any consequences… Heh heh… And if I died, I would just get “spit” out of the DVD player.

Now, come to think of it, I am living an adventure of my own. I moved away from a familiar setting to a city with no place to live and no job yet. I am going to be going to foreign countries, eating food I’ve only heard of on the Travel Channel, not to mention camping in the jungle! Now that I think about it, it’s kinda like Indiana Jones. Or Indiana Jane. Ha ha…
In the unseen, I am constantly exercising authority over the devil, speaking things out and believing what I said will come to pass, all the while resting assured that God supplies all my need. I am well protected, well armed, well fed, well supplied. I don’t have anything to worry about. I am a soldier. I don’t take anything from the devil. But being a Christian doesn’t stop there. I have loads of fun! Ever notice how much more fun something is if you’re not worried about it? Sure, I just passing through, but like every trip, you sit back and take in the sites, so to speak.

Soldier, Tourist, Pilgrim, Explorer, Alien, but most of all…
Adventurer!!!!!

There is so much going on right now, and, at the same time, hardly anything at all. I will be going to Tulsa in August, soooo I am packing everything up right now. Let’s see:

May 3- Went to the circus. It was very good, only there wasn’t any trapeze artists. There was a girl who swung on a rope and stuff. The guy who took apart his bike while he rode it and talked was cool too.

For those of you who don’t know, I wrecked my car in March. Yes, the Malibu. It was a good car. I totaled it when I fell asleep at the wheel and went off the rode and hit a culvert (that cement tube that people put under their driveway to continue the ditch). What’s funny about it is that I woke up when I felt the car go into the ditch, over corrected, and THEN hit the culvert. If I’d just continued going, I would’ve just hit the fence.
Heh heh…
Yesterday, I bought a 4runner. It’s a standard, so my dad’s going to take me to Cajun Field to practice driving it.

God is truly supplying my needs to go to Tulsa. He is an AWESOME God!!!!!
