Crazy Crabs Rule!!!

i helped teach vbs this past week. the smite team was given charge over the sixth grade. let me tell ya, there were some interesting times this week. some good and some bad. it was deffinatley never dull. btwn moody girls, storms putting holes in the inflatable obstacle course, getting kids wet, woody (pw, our main man) getting sick the first night, weird snacks, our team winning by 300,000 pts, and 2 girls giving there life to the Lord (can i get an amen?), it was a packed week. by fri we were all wasted. so i thought, why not make it even better? rock star energy drink it some pretty good stuff. that stuff will do dang near anything. and boy did it work. i was wired all night....until about 11:00 when i had to drive home. but i made it and i got to check up on some rest this weekend.
i also had some trouble with my laptop. i guess multiple anti-virus systems is a bad thing. they don't play well together. hence my compy wouldn't recieve emails in a timely manner, it wouldn't play my music, it wouldn't even start up in a timely manner. but when i got it i bought some sort of i don't know what it is but i get free work done on the laptop and other good stuff like that. so its fixifated. and now i can get back to kicking my bro's hinderparts on counter strike, which if you don't have the game you should deffinately get it. especially if you like first person shooters. counter strike is the best rated game out there for 1st p s. and you can play your friends and siblings and whoever else you wanna play. it is great fun.
well, i leave for brazil on tues. and no, i'm not bringing back an aligator or a piranha or a python or anything crazy like that for people so don't ask me to. i don't even know if i'll get anything while i'm down there. i probly will. maybe a brazil jersey. i don't know. i'll just have to see what they have. oh...we're all getting hammocks to sleep in during the duration of our stay. so i'll be bringing that back. i'm kinda thinking about doing something crazy with my hair while i'm down there. i mean, hey - i'll have to cut if off when i go to college anyway. i might as well have some fun with it.
and lastly, i just got done beating starfox (n64). it was great fun. they need to make it for pc. the game was made in 97, but it still kicks butt. you have to laugh when you play it...the sounds are so pathetic. like when one of your wingpersons dies, they make this really pathetic wail about dying. its kinda funny. but i beat it. yay. death to andross. i kick his pattooty. or something.
i'm out. like,.....later dudes.

bells of freedom

I have walked all alone
On these streets I call home
Streets of hope, streets of fear
Through the sidewalk cracks time disappears
I was lost, on my knees
On the eve of defeat
As I choked back the tears
There’s a silent scream no one could hear
So far away from everything you know is true
Something inside that makes you do what you got to do

Ring them bells, ring them loud
Let them ring here and now
Just reach out and ring the Bells of Freedom
When your world’s crashing down
Like you’re lost every round
Stand your ground
And ring the Bells of Freedom

Up the steps of the church
Through the fields and the dirt
In the dark I have seen
That the sun still shines for the one who believes
So far away
So full of doubt and needing proof
Just close your eyes and hear the sounds inside of you

Ring them bells, ring them loud
Let them ring here and now
Just reach out and ring the Bells of Freedom
When your world’s comes crashing down
Like you’ve lost every round
Stand your ground
And ring the bells of freedom

Ring them bells, ring them loud
Let them ring here and now
Just reach out and ring the Bells of Freedom
Yeah, when your world comes crashing down
Like you’ve lost every round
Stand your ground and ring the Bells of Freedom

Ring them bells, ring them loud
Let them ring here and now
Just reach out and ring the Bells of Freedom…

music is good. it is powerful. anyone who says otherwise is a fool. i like this song a lot. it kinda makes me think of some guy finally making it to the top of a mountain after a long struggle. kinda like when he gets there and throws his hand up for all to see that he's finally done it. so there's the song. bon jovi's a pretty kewl group.

Hallelujah - Philip, Craig, And Dean

Your love is amazing, steady and unchanging
Your love is a mountain, firm beneath my feet
Your love is a mystery, how You gently lift me
When I am surrounded, your love carries me
[chorus]
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Your love makes me sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Your love makes me sing

Your love is surprising, I can feel it rising
All the joy that’s growing deep inside of me
And every time I see you, all Your goodness shines through
And I can feel this God song rising up in me

{chorus}

Your love makes me sing
Your love makes me sing, sing, sing
Your love makes me sing


there have been quite a few things that have happened in the last week that i really want to talk about. some of them great, some of them....kinda cruddy. but it doesn't matter what they are, they all happened because God wanted them to. and they happened for a reason. i may not know that reason, but God does and maybe someday he'll fill me in on the details. until then...life goes on. so i'll keep singing....

lightning bugs are cool. especially when you're driving at night and they fly into your windsheild and get smooshed and then they keep glowing for the next couple of minutes......hehehehe.....
