The Call

The simple, quiet voice has it's way and the loud, clear voice has it's own way too. Either way, it is the best thing you ever want to hear. It's like a gentle shepherd leading his sheep in the safe path. There may still be pain and strife in the way, but all things will work out. Do you hear it? Do you feel anything tugging at your heart? "This is the Way, walk ye in it. Come and I will make it last forever." The sweet embrace that will follow will melt you into who you need to be. It will separate you and set you free. Do you hear it ringing? This call is for you. Take it and let it make you into who you are destined to be. This is nothing to hang up on. Will you answer the call to make it last for eternity?

Zombies

I am sure if not now then in a week every student will look like a zombie. They will just be roaming around from class to class. They may even talk and have a conversation with those around them, but it won't be the same anymore because they won't be human. (:
I woke up just a while ago and still want to be in bed. I think I got 6 1/2 hrs. of sleep last night and I just got a 20 minutes nap.
I have started reading Matthew for NT lit. I think I will really like that class. I'm in the library right now cause I need to go read a chapter from a book here for Music Min.( The Battle for Christian Music by Tim Fisher).

Classes

Maybe I should wait till tomorrow where I will have gone through all my new classes, but I couldn't wait. I take my free time to blog and stuff while I can and I happened to have some now before revival tonight.This year has a great number of freshman. Classes went good today. It was just the first day so it was mainly a introductory to it all.
I got a job as security here. It reminded me of Mall Cop and the quote of how to reach for the gun we all know you really don't have. LOL.
It's been really awesome down here so far

At college

Okay, so I'm here at college saying hello. Moved in yesterday. I only need a desk, my computer set up and I just may be ready. I just got a few free minutes here then I'm off to my next meeting. I know I still have a full day ahead, like every day for the rest of my life. :) Hopefully I'll be able to still blog and keep in contact with the outside world...

My day

This morning I woke up to my alarm clock at 8:00 a.m. I changed my clothes, grabbed a few things and headed back to the woods. I got back to the camp site, threw some wood on the dying fire and sat to relax. Had breakfast when the guys( Keith, Josh and Trent) got up. We then hung around for more fellowship and finished up some firecrackers and stuff. (: We then packed up and broke camp. ( I was in the woods for the campout until the guys went to bed last nite. The reason I wasn't in the woods the whole night was because I came home to get a shower and sleep trying to avoid all possibilities, if I could, of getting poison ivy.)
I then headed to Wal*mart with my madre and josh to pick up supplies. Came home for a while and took a few minute nap.
In the afternoon, I head to Sarahs to hang out. We( myself, sarah and daniel) went to payless and target. We also picked up Starbucks. Yum.
This evening, my family and I went to church for VBS. I still say I am having a blast, but I'm tired, dude, seriously. Don't even ask why I'm still up talking about this. lol.

Lost

Are you living two lives? Saying nothing but lies? I thought there was a connection. I thought we had something. I'm scared of what to believe from you. I want to have faith in you. Show me that all I'm hearing, all I'm feeling, isn't true. I just want to come back to you. Is there any hope? I got a million things screaming at me. Should I confront this head on, wait, let you approach, ignore it? I thought it meant more than that. Ugh! Come on. You push a man's patience beyond sanity. I want this to all come out to a "No, never hunny". If only things were perfect. It sure felt like it 24 hours ago. If only things could be the way they were. Now I'm wishing on every 11:11 I see. I feel lost, so lost. Lost in my emotions, lost between truth and lies, lost of what to say. I'm lost in the questions. Why do things have to be this way? I see us standing there, in the alley, sharing our moment. That's what I want to feel forever. That's what I want to share for eternity. Am I lead to believe that that was the end? Has this already been over? Do you still feel the same way? I don't know what to do now. I will take any blame that's due. You really are what I feel is lost. I don't want to lose you. -JDM
