Looks like Rain

I'm trying not to be sad that I'm not doing fun things for halloween and fall times because of ginormous homework load... so I found this eyeball. It's rad. The guy who does this is rad too. He made his own piano music for his site. It's very "Amelie" sounding. http://www.christophehuet.com/

But, really, I'm doing something else that is very good, I'm making outlines of John and Roman and writing my own book of reports on Bible commentaries. I've never read John this in-depth before. Intense. I can't get over the fact that Jesus was God who set His tent up in the form of human flesh to dwell among us. God- who made the clouds I saw today, who makes it rain, who designed our eyeballs... God dwelt among us... and that's just the beginning of the story...

Melissa's Head


Melissa has been gone long enough for me to miss her now... and so I'm thinking about resurrecting her head for more photo opportunities. I got an auburn wig for a costume and it makes me look like my sister. All the kids in my class laughed and said, "hey! it's your sister!" My dad said "Ew!" and mom keeps asking if she can try it on again. Oh, we are a bunch of nuts.

Sunset Like Poetry

My little pink Lomofisheye camera does well with sunsets.



Constantly coming to mind are the words of poets, and today Pablo Neruda rings in the night:

"We have lost even this twilight.
No one saw us this evening hand in hand
while the blue night dropped on the world.

I have seen from my window
the fiesta of sunset in the distant mountain tops.

Sometimes a piece of sun
burned like a coin in my hand..."

Sticky Butt

This morning I tried really hard to make it to the early church service. Mom and I were working hard to get out the door on time. Well, somehow I managed to *unknowingly* drop a massive goop ball from my cinnamon sticky bun onto the clothes that I intended to wear to church today. You guessed it. It got all over me before I realized it, even on my rear end. Let's just say that my clothes were pasted to my skin. Everything had a touch of the tar, so I had to do laundry. After that, I was a mess and did not recover on time to make it to church early. For some reason I was physically and mentally incapacitated by my condition of sticky butt- even after I got it all off. I cut my finger, fought with the blemish on my face, and changed my clothes 5 times. Gross. Hopefully next week I'll make it to Gracelife. :)

In other news, I just bought a new camera. I dropped my old one in Kentucky this summer and the cost of repairing it was more than it was worth. So I got a new one for mucho discounto online and I'm looking forward to posting some pics of future zoo trips. Looking forward to pictures of the Evil-k-nevil monkeys and the baby crocs.
