You're not going to believe what happend today.
Alright, hold on just a second. I know what you’re thinking, “That’s not a merry-go-round! Who does this guy think he is?” But I forgot to get a picture of the merry-go-round, and this is the next best picture, so lets just go with it.
I’ll set the scene for you. It was about 6:15 and my small group was meeting
Yesterday was Robert & Valerie’s birthday party. It was really cool, they had a bunch of people over to eat and hang out, but mainly to eat. There was so much food, we started with some BBQ brisket sandwiches and then there were burgers, after that was the crawfish (which I tries for the first time), and after that there was chicken
[UPDATE: in the original version of this I introduced comments to PN]
Last night Alan “A-Town” Jensen came over so that we could hit the studios and maybe pump out some new music for all our fans. We got the first part of a song recorded, the working title on it is “Run Around”. We also realized that we
Last night the plan was that after work, around 7, I’d meet up with my friend Taylor and we’d go pick out a suit and dress for prom. Let me pause for a second and say that originally we were going to go on Monday and I was going to drive, but that didn’t work out so we
I actually went back to school on Tuesday, but I forgot to write about it yesterday.
Anyways, the return to school inevitably the return to cafeteria food. At times I’ve been said to have mixed feelings on the subject of cafeteria food, but I think in all honesty its really bad. Granted some food items are better than others, and take
Today I went with Hayes and Taylor to go check out a rental house in Dallas that they were interested in. We were supposed to meet the landlord at 6. At 6:20 we sent Hayes to go pick up Chipotle while we waited with the neighbor. The neighbor was super cool and brought us home-made cupcakes. They were so good that I wanted
No school today. I’m sure your either happy for me or jealous of me. I’ll take either because I’ll take what I can get.
Last night Emily called me during an important “business meeting” and told me that a group of guys and gals were going to Waffle House in Rockwall. I was super stoked because WH is like one of
Easter. A day that Christians use to celebrate Jesus rising from the dead. Its a joyous time which usually involves getting dressed up and an easter egg or two. My family always gets together with distant relatives [they live in Rockwall but we’re like 2nd or 3rd cousins] and eats a lot.
I ate 3 plates full. Now I’m trying to write
Tonight was Cassie J.’s birthday party. It was slamming, the gals all wore summer dresses and the guys wore sweater vests, or just sweaters for those who didn’t have the vest. We each brought a small dish to pass and ate picnic style. Later after some chatting we had story time with Angela J. and then as it
So, in case you weren’t aware today is Good Friday. And some of you might be thinking, “What’s so ‘good’ about this Friday?” Well, I’ll answer your question with a question: “Who lived a blameless life and then was crucified and died for the sins of all humanity?”
Answer to both questions: Jesus, the Christ.
Yeah, and FYI: Sunday is
Allow me for a moment to sulk in my self pity.
[moment]
Thank you.
To further explain you need know this: I’m on spring break. One of the most joyous of seasons for students of all ages. However, on this dreary day [actually it has been mostly sunny] things have all but gone my way. Granted it could be worse,
Last night I drove out in the monsoon to CFNI so I could hang with my bro’s and go to class the following day. Class was cool and lecture was fun and all, but the real party started afterwards. When a group of us from Paradigm [my youth group] met up to film the statement [our weekly video announcement
I had just finished up some web design work at around 11:21am and thought to myself, “With this warm and rainy weather it would be perfect conditions for 4 wheeling”. So I loaded up the 4 wheeler into my “army styled” truck and took off for this great spot I was told about a while back. My mom came
The hardest thing about secrets is having to keep them. I’ve never wanted to talk so much as I do when I have a secret. Now if you’re reading this and thinking, “I’ve told Andrew secrets before. Has he told anyone?” The answer is no. I always keep other people’s secrets. Its my own that I have a problem
Tonight the small group met and we took up a small collection then went and bought some pizza and chinese food. Pizza and Chinese food is great, whether its by itself or together, its always good. Our original plan was to watch a movie while we eat, but since none of us could agree on
Well, some of the more faithful readers will notice that I was out of pocket for two days. The reason was this: I went to BattleCry. BattleCry is a huge even put on by Acquire The Fire, and by huge I mean 11,000+ youth. It was intense. They had a 2+ hour drama which was good but sooooo long.
I really like the
First off, unrelated to what I titled this, I had an interesting day in Art class when we were looking at some modern-esque impressionist pieces. Of which was “The Falling Rocket” which is one of my personal favorites. The class became interesting when one girl said that she thought it was stupid how that piece was considered art because she felt
So tonight Love The Unloved was invited to a show by The White Tie Event at the Door in Dallas. They were awesome enough to let us use part of their merch table so we could sell our shirts. I had a good time. When I
Today I was in 5th period when I got a txt from Hayes saying that she and Lauren knew of a great mud field where we could go play some football and have a crazy awesome time getting dirty. Of course I replied “Yes!”
Now, I have no idea who the guy is in the picture. That’s not even a picture
This morning at roughly 2am my phone took the liberty of “springing forward”. I deliberately told it not to because I couldn’t stand the idea of losing an hour, but you know the old saying, “Time waits for no man.” That saying rings true for even those of us with mustaches. Sorry gents, the
Well on Friday it snowed pretty good. Pretty good by Texas’ standards. I feel like this is such old news because today was almost 60 degrees. Ok, well I went ahead and checked to see how accurate that last statement was and I see that today’s high was only 51. But in my defense it was sunny
I’m not sure if most of you will get this or not so I’ll go ahead and explain. It was Mary’s birthday. Mary, when spelled Merry is synonymous with Happy. So its like a pun.
Anyways, tonight was Mary’s birthday party and so a group of us [her friends] surprised her at P.F. Chang’s all dressed up like we were legit
Today I met back up with my team at the Garland DART station and we road out to Pearl station. Once there we chilled for a little bit at the Plaza Americas, then purposely avoided the other BPA kids as we jumped back on the train to ride down to Mockingbird Station. Once there we shopped around Urban Outfitters and had
Today was the kick off of the State level BPA [Business Professionals of America] competition. The location for State this year is in Dallas. Because I live so close I’m not staying in the hotel like some of the other kids. Rather I’m just commuting back and fort [thanks to the DART rail].
Funny story: I went to purchase my ticket for the
My father is a “day trader”. Officially I think he prefers “Technical Analyst” in reference to the market trends of foreign currencies and a few select indexes.
That probably sounds super confusing because it is. Its a lot of money-talk. Fortunately for myself I’m learning to speak money. I shouldn’t have to explain myself here, you guys know that there
Today I went on a small shopping excursion. I and my trusty Toyota Pickup trudged through the Dallas traffic to arrive at NorthPark mall. It was bigger than I last remember it. And after walking around it for 2.5 hours I knew that it was larger than I had anticipated.
I met Juddson up near the foodeterium [someone should submit that to
Its not quite “Super Tuesday” but tomorrow is Texas’ Primary election in which those that are 18+ years old and registered to vote can cast their ballot for the candidate of their choice. I encourage you all to participate in this American activity.
Also, I realize I didn’t post on Sunday so to catch you up I wrote this poem:
Church
Tonight was the student leader fun-night. For those of you that are new to my life, I’m a student leader at Paradigm, and therefore went with the others to have a night of team-building fun. Which we did by the way. But only because of some convincing on our [the student leaders] part.
Originally, Taylor and Jed wanted to
