Hello

I dont have much time to blog- Im sitting in class, and could probably get in trouble for not doing what i am supposed to- but oh well. Im back and for anyone who might still read I have three questions:

Why is it now a fad for guys to wear girls jeans? Or better yet why is it a fad for "emo" guys to cut off those jeans at the knee and look as if they are wearing pettal-pushers? I spent an evening on the fsu campus not too long ago- and at one of the indie stage clubs all but like 3 guys there were wearing traditional punk garb, and really tight girls jeans. Now on a whole this dosnt bother me, i find it amusing... not attractive, but amusing. One guy there had cut off his girly jeans at the knee, so i strolled up and asked him a resounding "Just out of curiosity... Why do you wear girly jeans?" He replied "cause they are different, and actually really comfortable!"
Wooo hoooo! news to me- I am a girl and i do not find girls jeans that are that tight on the butt comfortable in any way shape or form! but ok dude you be different with all the other guys in the club.

My next question- How would we college aged (19-23) kids survive if it were not for romen noodles and poptarts? I cant afford food! Straingely enough i live at home but my schedule is so different than anyone else in my house i am lucky to eat with them 4 times a week- which means there are about 15 meals that i have to figure out for myself. ...gooo. Reciently i recieved a 200$ speeding tickett for going 75 in a 55. Let me tell you i am still suffering the money loss- so .75$ sounds really good for about 8 meals worth of food! Not that all that starch and salt does me any good- but Im still alive. Oh yea and peanut butter- i would die without peanut butter- really.

My final question is rather serious- and has been sparked out of a bible study i went to last night. But do you think that the church in America as a whole is dying out? I believe it is- and there is one huge reason, and many little ones. Big reason being- the church in america on a whole does not recognize how Christians are supposed to live as servents, acting and reaching out in love. The early church were not known as "Christians" they were follers of "The Way" (see acts 1-2ish) the "way" being a way of life- a way of living. In matthew 25 Jesus says something to the effect of (and i dont have a bible so this is a paraphrayse) "I was naked and you clothed me, I was a prisioner and you visited me, I was hungry and you fed me..." Christianity in america today has somewhat become a doctrine of belief. "As long as you believe and have faith, you are saved, safe, and its all good you can stop at that" ..right? NO! Belief in Christ is essential- faith is a spring board- but to life and life abundantly. We were called to serve, not just go to church on sunday and be spoonfed warm fuzzy scripture. hmmmm. This is a truth that frightens me, cause i know i have been part of the problem.

REALLY glad you're back!

Speaking of warm, fuzzy scripture...Whenever you are on the internet, and need a Bible, go to www.biblegateway.com. You can type in phrases and/or keywords, and search out any Bible passage that you want to read in seconds.

Make it a favorite. You will love it.

Both of you.

To the second question, I don't know if you've seen the recent Wendy's commercials, when the young guy gets a $75 dollar ticket from the officer and he says "Thats 75 Jr Bacon Cheeseburgers!"

I love those commercials. For two reasons, I love anything for $1 at Wendys. 2nd reason, it reminds people to put their money in perspective, as your meals and speeding ticket has done for you.

And while i'm not picking on you, you at least still have food available to you at your home. You will find, when you move out, that you can spend practically no money on anything you need, and still be starving....

But life gets better, and fret not about food.

Refer to Matthew 6:26
Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?

I haven't starved yet, and neither will you.
