Welcome to class...Have a Crepe'!

These among others are the witty statements my fellow classmates say when we are in our 4 hour (yes 4 hour) speech class... The story behind the above statement...
Our teacher said if she ever won the lottery, she wouldn't stop teaching but she would have like a French chef preparing everyone a dish while she talked about public speaking... It was quite funny. I guess you had to be there.

Another was...While talking about connotation and denotation and the word "lottery"
Teacher: If someone is barely making it financially, and spends $100 a week on lottery tickets"
Student: You might be a redneck?
Anyway, that's about it any ideas on a speech I could demonstrate? I've discovered I can do nothing...

So it goes...

Well it's rather late and I can't sleep because today I faced the tragedy of having a root canal done and it still hurts... Why anyone would want to be a dentist is beyond me. That is just a profession that makes me think that people like to perform cruel and unusual punishment on others... and like it. Then I started summer school today. Not a hard class just communications because my school believes that I need one more unit of communication so why not learn how to do a demonstrative, informative, and persuasive speech...again... Let's see...Silver lining in my life?? Searching...Searching....Searching... Oh yeah!! I get to go to Riverside this weekend and see wonderful people! That and God is totally providing for me even if I don't have a job... Oh well...gotta keep smiling!!

Signed, sealed, delivered- I'm Yours!!

God's that is... (I think God's a Stevie Wonder fan...) hahaha One thing I enjoy about summer is that I get to read more (due to the fact that I am broke and cannot go to the movies as much as I want...) Anyway, there was this chapel speaker awhile back and though I wasn't too impressed with her when she was speaking in chapel the book she wrote, "The burning heart contract" seems to be quite good. Anyway, she's talking about just being fully God's. Truthfully, it really isn't anything I haven't heard before... but something that she wrote and the scripture just really hit me in the head. If you really personalize Romans 6:20-23 and Romans 8:5-8 it really makes you think. Just by putting in your specific sin and your name...I don't know... it just seemed Paul was sitting in my room talking to me and it wasn't something I wanted to hear but I mos definatly heard it. Simple task, but sometimes the most simple things are pretty profound. Hopefully this warm, fuzzy feeling doesn't burn out.

Ever feel like you just keep going backwards in life? You want to act lke an adult but you just revert back to being a child? Or maybe you just felt you were supposed to have certian things done by the time you reached a certian age? Or maybe you feel like you have completly wasted everyone's time? Yeah...welcome to my life. But I can't beat myself up too much or be depressed about it but instead keep going forward and looking up to God for wisdom and learn from what I don't like and keep doing what I do like. One day this will all make sense...it has to...
