Chapter 105: Kutless Concert OR Homework?

Hey Everyone;

How is everyone doing? I'm awesome- my back is SO much better, thanks Reesor for praying for me in class... :P - But yeah. Like I said, I'm awesome. I'm home here now... somewhat moping! :( - Here's why... I forced myself to stay home instead of going to a Kutless Concert. I'm here, at the apartment while everyone else is gone to enjoy themselves at the Kutless Concert that is like 1/2 hour away from us. :( WHY did I choose the option I did? Simple because the homework I have is a book about 'discipline'. I am not a overly BIG Kutless fan, but come on- they are 'huge' on the 'Christian' scene. Plus, their worship album made it BIG in my CD collection.. haha! Anyways, yeah. I pushed off reading this book, I was half way done and was like.. yeah, I'll do it later. Then, this comes up and I'm thinking.. GO? Read? - so out of a disciplinary act... I stayed home and tackled that book. Oh well, I'm sure it won't be that fun anyways... (pouts)! ha! Oh well, I'm gonna go see Casting Crown soon anyways so... :P - nah! :) CC is WAY better then Kutless anyways... :)

But yeah, I'm here, taking a break from the book already. I put on a Christian radio station that is on 'iTunes'- that program is awesome... WAY better then Windows Media Player... And I can't even remember who or how I was introduced to it. :) Oh well, it's there and it's good! :)

Anyways.... School again tomorrow.. 8am! Paul class is good, but it would be WAY better if it was later in the day. My mind is slow at 8am and so far, I ain't getting much from the class. :P I'm sure it'll kick in sooner or later.

That reminds me (and I don't know how Paul reminds me of this... :S) I have yet to have supper. I must go and grab something from the fridge.

Peace
Prayers

Chapter 103: In The Zone

Hey Everyone;

I know I haven't been blogging a whole lot- it's been three weeks (actually more than that now) and I have blogger what, two, three times. Shame on me. I'm normally busy, in some sort of way. I have yet to really grow attached to the 'city life' but in most ways I have I guess. I like the fact that there is 'so much more too do' but with little ' mula'... it's hard to do a whole lot. :) I'm loving the school here, but the weather is too cold (and it's only September... I'll die in December). I like the apartment and the area, but the fact that people don't smile, or say hello on the street bothers me. Sometimes I say 'good morning' but I just get a glance back or a very muffled 'hello'. That is the BIGGEST part of me missing home- well that and my family. haha!

Anyways, that's just some of the things that have been playing on my mind since 'the big move'.

School is awesome! I love it. I'm on a YMIT team (basically it's a 'outreach' team). We are going all over Edmonton and doing ministry work - I'm super excited about that. But all I ask, just say a little prayer over it. :) It'll be sweet.. and I'm sure I'll be talking about different things we do later on, once we get started. :)

Oh, just wanted to congratulate Jenn and Nelson on their baby girl. Jenn had her today and I do believe her name is Taylor Roxanne Sharon Shiner. I predicted it would be a boy but it's not... ha! It'll be 'little Jennie Jr.' now, instead of 'Nelsie Jr.'- :) Once again, congrats!

What's the news back home anyways? I keep up with VOCM and The Nor Wester - thank God for online news eh? But yeah, so if you're from back home.... leave a message and tell me a lil' 'clip' about it.. pictures? stories... poems? anything! haha!

But yeah, I'm gone!

Peace
Prayers

Chapter 102: Not A Good Day So Far

Hey Everyone;

Oh my... this is not turning out to be a good day what-so-ever already... *sigh*. First off, school didn't start for me today until 10:50, so I set me alarm for 9:30 - figured I'd sleep 'in' a little bit, and get some rest. It was after 12 when I set the alarm and guess what I did? Yup, I must have hit the button and set my clock one hour ahead. Anyways, Rudy and Tash have a class at 8 - so based on MY clock they were late... and as I was half asleep I was thinking if they really did have a class or did they just start at 9. Oh my... they leave and I lay in bed thinking... 9 rolls around so I decides I'll shut off the alarm, jump in the shower and then I can study for a bit. I take a shower, clean up my room (some what cleaned it up... okay, fine. I made the bed... lol) and then put my books together for class. Then I come out to make breakfast. Poptarts all the way, after all- they serve lunch here on Tuesdays so I'm covered. I sit down with my poptarts and start to eat them, while eatting I glance up at the clock and it says '8:30'. I start freaking out.... no no no, I didn't notice the time WAS wrong, I thought my clock's battery had died! Ahhhh.... I gets a little mad at the somewhat cheep batteries we bought... and stomps out in the kichen for some water. THEN... yes, THEN it hits me- actually I noticed the time on the microwave... and it dawns. So, in a nutshell- I was thinking I was up at 9, to be ready for my 10:50 class, but REALLY, I was up at 8 (EIGHT) for my 10:50 class... oh my... so yeah.

It's all good I guess, cause I wasn't planning to blog this early (even though right now it is after 12 noon back home in Newfoundland). but I thought this would make a good read!

Oh yeah, someone tripped the lamp last night, and it crashed down on the floor. I picked it up this morning, turned it on and the blub was blowed.. so now, we are bulbless! Oh well,... the store sells em.. AND they're cheep! haha!

Peace

Chapter 101: Congrats Be To Eva

Congratulations to Eva! Winner of Canadian Idol Season 4.

Personally, out of Criag and Eva- I was rooting for Craig. I never liked the 'Newfie' that represented 'us' since Jenny Gear.. but Craig was actually very good. He's so a pop singer and can easily question some of the things he done, but that doesn't matter in the 'singing' world... in that world.. you SING!

Sorry Craig, but I'm sure Sony will sign you just like they signed Rex.

Good luck!

Peace
Prayers

PS.. I gotta finish reading 'Celebration of Discipline' - if you can, get the book.

Chapter 100: I'm Back

HEY!

WOW- it's been some time. I actually been trying to blog for weeks now, but I forgot my password and for some reason, didn't bother to reset my password. Anyways, I'm here- I got my password, it's pouring rain outside, it's a little chilly in the apartment thus, I'm blogging.

Well, What do I say? I missed you all. I missed the comments, I missed the writing, I miss everything.

Well, where do I begin. I'm here in Alberta. I'm settled in my apartment for weeks now. It was a bit rough at the first of it, but now that we're here.. we're good. :) We had wicked hot weather for the first little bit but two days now, it's bee pouring rain- like ALOT. Its good though, cause it was getting a little too hot, even for me.

I'll post a few pictures of our apartment:


That is our kitchen- all fitted out with fridge, microwave, stove, etc.

This is our couch/living room.

That's enough for now. haha! Anyways, I'm too tired to write anymore, and since I'm alone now- I'm gonna go sleep.

Peace & Prayers

Josh
