Unbelievable

What is that I see on the ground outside? What is that floating from the sky? Don't say the "S " word. UGH!!! Crazy snow
WHY WHY WHY???
I guess it's this kind of weather that keeps us talking and wondering when the past season will be over.
The weekend is over and another week is started. Last night instead of going to regular church my mom, aunt, brother, neighbor and I went and heard The Glick Family Singers( my second cousins). At the end, they served cookies and drinks. :) On the way down there, we saw over a dozen turkey in a feild. I love seeing wild animals like that..

Lockin

What would you say if I told you that I got up at 4 today..... P.M? Yes, that's what I did. Maybe it would make a difference if I told you that I stayed up all night and didn't get home till 8 something. Joshua (my bro) and I went to a lock-in with games, food, singing, and friends. Totally awesome. I rarely stay up all night and it felt good just to do it again, but I'm sure the older I get the more difficult it will get. As... informal as it was, I thought it was great that some of the young men of the youth group we were with were willing to "preach". They pretty much just spoke on a simple topic like faith, loving one another, and spending our time wisely, gave some Scripture to back it up and gave their thoughts on it. Amazingly awesomeness. So what if I am still tired? I always will be. It was worth it.

Madagascar

Here I am listening to Adventures in Odyssey enjoying another day.

Going through my regular routine.

It's been raining outside all day so I've been inside most the day.

I've also been really enjoying the movie Madagascar.

"Captains log: Embarking into hostile environment.

Kowalski. We'll need to win the hearts and minds of the natives.

Rico. We'll need special tactical equipment.

We're going to face extreme peril.

Private probably won't survive."

LOL. Totally awesome

Relationship

One of my favorite past times and hobby is writing. Mainly it's just my thoughts, a point I'm trying to make or random inspirations. I really love it and enjoy it. It's one way for me to get my feelings and emotions out.

I was in the vehicle driving someplace( I don't remember where and when. Who needs those details anyways) and this program/talk show/thingy was talking about raising kids and stuff. I usually wouldn't listen to something like that since I'm not a parent and don't have kids, but my Mom was in the car and was listening. The person said that kids, mainly teenagers to be exact, don't just want the parent to be a parent but to also have a real relationship with them. So with meditation on that and circumstances in my life I wrote the following:


This is what makes me apathetic sometimes. All I see is you saying "No"! The great minds of our age say we want and need a relationship. I know you are caring and always want my best, but if not now then someday there will be a time for me to make some decisions. A relationship is a two way road and I'm only seeing a one way sign. If something doesn't change I'm afraid I'm going to see a dead end sign. I could tear down any sign I see, but they are there for a reason. I feel like your choking the life out of me. Are you trying to squash my other relationships cause you are jealous? Things are continually happening and life keeps going and no one can stop that. I'll honor you as best I can, but that doesn't mean I'll do everything you want. Who are you to pick and choose who I create relationships with? This can only get better or worse. I will not let this keep going the way it is. I may act a little odd, but I'm not you am I? I need a relationship. Do you understand that? You don't seem to understand much of me anymore. We may never see everything the same, but we never were meant to. You may say this is just me finding myself, growing maturer or who knows what. That could be part of it, but I will just say its me realizing we are missing a relationship.

Dino

Haha. Boredum in class, it will do stuff to a person.

Over a week ago in speech class I got bored....Do you speak Dinosaur? If you do, you know that it is a very diverse language. Plus, there are a hand full of dialects. There are some dialects that are deeper, some are softer, some are more violent, etc. Even the very common "Rawr" can be misinterpreted very easily. The main, common "Rawr" means "I love you", but the t-rex says it like "You will love me or else". The main plant eaters say it as to beg for food or love. So you may hear any dino say "Rawr", but you have to have a trained ear to perceive what it really implies.

WKND

Ahh!
The weekend.

I'm gunna say something about a growing hip-hopster, T.I. Since his main kicking-off in the early 2000's, T.I. has been singing his little heart out.
Lately I've heard his latest hit single Dead and Gone( feat. Justin Timberlake)

(chorus)

Ohh I've been travelin on this road too long (too long)

Just trying to find my way back home (back home)

The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone.

I was thinking, " This sorta sounds like it could related to something spiritual."

Matthew 7:14.
But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Romans 6:6
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed , that henceforth we should not serve sin.

I really quite enjoy the song. There is a problem though with the language. Using some that I would never speak.

I then watched his music video for the song. To my surprise, with the language on T.I. music, there at the beginning of the video was 1 Corinthians 13:11 KJV
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

Of course, This may send a mixed message, but maybe in a odd way T.I. is pointing in his own way to the Truth.

High

Yeah so I've been sorta having my highs and lows lately.
One of the great highs is listening to Family Force 5
and I thought I would put one of their great songs on here.

FACEDOWN

I shut my eyes in search of sleep
Tossed and turned and hoped for dreams
Awakened by your voice,
That was so clear
It felt so near to me

I want your love I need your touch
I've been missing you so much
I reach out for your hand
And now it feels like i am falling
Down
Down
Down
Til i kiss the ground, ground, ground.

Fall down
Well I'm face down
Giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste
I've swallowed my pride
Now I'm face down
It's where I stay now
If you see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so i can live face down
[Face down]

I'm on my face again
It's where i should've been
It brings me back to where i found you
Where i first fell for you
I'm not depending on myself
It's you and me and no one else
You shut out your hand
And now it feels like I'm falling in love, love, love
Can't get enough of love

Fall down
Well I'm face down
Giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste
I've swallowed my pride
Now I'm face down
It's where I stay now
If you see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so i can live face down
[Face Down]

Love Love Love
Can't get enough of love
Fall down
Well I'm face down
Giving up me, myself, and I
It's a bittersweet taste
I've swallowed my pride
Now I'm face down
It's where I stay now
If you see me standing up again
Just knock me back down so i can live face down

I got to live face down
I got to live face down
I got to live face down
Face down
Oh, i got to live face down.


I Timothy 3:6b
...lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil.

1 Corinthians 14:25 (KJV)
And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.

relaxing

So I'm just chillaxing( lol not sure i spelled correctly)

Listening to AIO's newest podcast.

Annoyed- being a teenager.

What a life...

If you know me I've been writing. Got a new note on facebook today.

Been watching movies from the library and on tvland.com, some

say i may be addicted.

*yawn*

School is going fine.

Somedays I think it would be better to sleep them away.

Lately

In the last couple days I've helped Mom with my Boy Scout scrapbook, helping pick out pics and figuring out where they go. Mainly so far just the pics of my Eagle project.



Then yesterday my homeschool group took a "field trip" (LOL) to a bowling alley. We had my brother, myself and Katie, Josh, and Andrea in my lane.








Today we( me and my brother) went to church to work out. ( Pump a little iron so that we don't become "girly men". Ha. But we wouldn't show off cause we wouldn't want to burn anyone with the steam from our locomotives) After that Josh, Keith and I went and jogged ( being my wimpy self couldn't make it around the lake even once without slowing down) around Lake Anna.

This is going to be interesting. Here I am following the crowd you could say. New to it all, besides checking out my siblings and such every once in a while. This is going to be great!

Oh, it feels good to be on here already and I've only written a few sentences. Following the crowd always does feel good for a while I guess.

Hello my name is Jonathan. I am next to the youngest of five kids. Currently I am a senior in high school. I be home teached.
