Sermon Notes

Hey everyone. This is my blog. Hope you like. If you're wondering about the title, my first post was something I wrote while I was in chuch. As I made this site, I looked at the piece of paper and it was called Sermon Notes for Sunday April 24, 2005. Hence the name Sermon Notes, and the address sn4s. Comments appreciated.

Hmmmm...

Interesting things that happened today:

I nearly got run over by a unicycle.

I saw some college cliches, a guy playing hacki sack.

Ourbuildings fire alarm went off thanks to the dork on the 2nd floor burning some popcorn...(like I haven't done it too).

My professor of my film class said the F-word. Hahaha, and that was freaking funny.

Ummm. I think that's it.


BYE!

My Summer Ends Tonight...

Hey Everyone.

Tonight is my last night of summer. Tomorrow is my first day of classes. I start out with an english class at 12:00, followed by a math class at 1:00. I'm not really looking forward to any of this. Nichole talked to Nick tonight on the phone and he reported that he had been doing his math homework from 2 to 7 that night (times may be incorrect) but it was a long time regardless. Plus he can't use calculators... Yeah. Brianna's little brain is not looking forward to this. Also I looked up my professors the other night with the help of Nichole and found out that almost ALL of my known professors that were listed are all considered "jerks" by the students who've already taken the classes. I've also found out that the teachers don't give out good notes for the tests and things like that. Way to go Brianna, picked a great line-up for the first semester. Ugh, nervousness sets in now at 11:01.

Obviously my internet is working. My friend was wrong about the wire and them cutting it. Only our dormroom is messed up, everyone elses room seems to be just fine. Actually I'm not that bad off either, except I'm actually borrowing someones wireless connection I happen to be picking up (which is actually illegal with the school network) but hey, it's their fault for the network in my entire dorm room being messed up and it taking us almost a week for anyone to return our call let alone schedule an appointment to come fix the problem. But the main thing is that I can log on so I should be posting things pretty regularly now... then again, no promises.

Oh well, I'm tired now. So goodnight everyone. See you sometime.

Bye Everyone...

Packing sucks.

Tomorrow morning at 7:30 I leave for Alabama, and I'm all packed up and raring to go. Right now I'm doing some last minute burning of my sister's CD's. Loads of fun let me tell you. Hey Nichole, maybe they will help you and the others out in our dorm dances? And I will get away from them when I want to...

It's kind of weird leaving home. But I think I'm pretty much okay with the idea now, and I know I'm going to be missed by my family and some friends who have the joy of staying at home a year (sorry Trent). But the main reason I'm saying goodbye is because our network line to our housing got clipped by some retards who don't know how to read a little yellow flag in the ground, so we don't have the internet in my building just yet, and who knows how long it's going to take. But anyways, adios to everyone. You'll be hearing from me soon, at least I hope.

Goodnight everyone.

God bless.

Hi...

let me be your drug
i'll give you your high
let me run through your veins
i'll swim around inside
(all blood leads to the heart)
let me be your safety
i'll give you your walls
let me protect you from them
we sail through these squalls
(opposites attract, add up in movement)
let me be your smile
i'll give you your hope
let me be the curve of your eyes
i'll forever guide your laugh
(nothing's impossible, and i will leave it at that)

And I will leave it at that.
And I will leave it at that.
And I will leave it at that.
And I will leave it at that.

I can't leave it at that...

This is fun...

The following in excerpted from a children's book, "Captain Underpants And the Perilous Plot Professor Poopypants" by Dave Pilkey, in which the evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names...

1. Use the third letter of your first name to determine your new first name:

a=snickle b=doombah c=goober d=cheesey e=crusty f=greasy g=dumbo h=farcus i=dorky j=doofus k=funky l=boobie m=sleezy n=sloopy o=fluffy p=stinky q=slimy r =dorfus s=snooty t=tootsie u=dipsy v=sneezy w=liver x=skippy y =dinky z=zippy

2. Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your new last name:

a=dippin b=feather c=batty d=burger e=chicken f=barffy g=lizard h=waffle i=farkle j=monkey k=flippin l=fricken m=bubble n=rhino o=potty p=hamster q=buckle r=gizzard s=lickin t=snickle u=chuckle v=pickle w=hubble x=dingle y=gorilla z=girdle

3. Use the third letter of your last name to determine the second half of your new last name:

a=butt b=boob c=face d=nose e=hump f=breath g=pants h=shorts i=lips j=honker k=head l =tush m=chunks n=dunkin o=brains p=biscuits q=toes r=doodle s=fanny t=sniffer u=sprinkles v=frack w=squirt x=humperdinck y=hiney z=juice

Thus, for example, George W. Bush's new name is: Fluffy Chucklefanny.Now when you SEND THIS ON...use your new name as the subject. And remember that children laugh an average of 146 times a day; adults laugh an average of 4 times a day. Put more laughter in your day!

Hey Everyone!!

Hey everyone, I got back last night from the trip up the Northa Carolina and back, whheeew. I was TIRED! But I had an awesome time with my sister Kristen, and my mom. I know some of you, especially you girls, have probably heard the new song out by Natasha Bedingfield, Daniel Bedingfield's sister called "These Words (I Love You, I Love You, I Love You)". Good song, and yes Wayne, it does make sense. But "agree to disagree". Anyway, my sister really likes the song too and bought the CD before we left so I got to sample it and rip it to my laptop. There are a lot of good songs on the CD, although some can be described just as fillers. She can get really deep at times, she takes some of her ideas from Beauty and the Beast, and she seems really vulnerable throughout the entire CD, with the exception of "Single". Anyhoo, one song that I really really like is called "Unwritten" which is the name of the CD itself. Here are the lyrics to it.

Unwritten

I am unwritten
Can't read my mind
I'm undefined

I'm just beginning
The pens in my hand
Ending unplanned


Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you cannot find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin


No one can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live life with your arms wide open
Today is where your books begins

The rest is still unwritten


I break tradition
Sometimes my tries
Are outside the lines

We've been conditioned
To not make mistakes
But I can't live that way


Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you cannot find

Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin


No one can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live life with your arms wide open
Today is where your books begins

Feel the rain on your skin

No one can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live life with your arms wide open
Today is where your books begins

The rest is still unwritten

Another really good song on the CD that just sounds cool and for some reason made me want to cry when I heard it is called "The One Who Got Away", full of metaphors.

Love you all!!

Hey to Bajoley up in the state of virgins. Heh.

I'M OUT!!

Funny Stuff...

Saw a t-shirt today. It read:


You Can't Have Manslaughter

:smiling man holding cleaver:

Without Laughter


I don't know, I actually thought it was pretty funny. Maybe I'm just sick...

Wired and Rewired, Say It Isn't So...

The quiet ride home
It gives me time to
Think it over...
Think it over...
I can't say that I'm proud of myself
I thought I was past this
I guess I'm not...
I guess I'm not...

She walked in
And it was all over
My heavy set resolve
The base pounded it into the wall
That empty feeling
Returned to the place it knows so well
And coldness...

Settles over my stomach
Burns through my temples

My eyes narrow
And my hands reach for another
I find them cold
And I know why
She has a partner in crime

I'm not handling this well...

My body grows stiff
Against my will
My chest invites air
But refuses to let it leave
And to think
I was about to throw 'bow

This is like having a staring contest with a set of painted eyes

Open...

It sends me falling back
The wall catches me

And then...

Insecure
Inadequate
Irrelevant

...Defeated

Constantly checking my back
For the inevitable
The proverbial knife
I knew someone would throw

I never guessed it would be him
I was so focused on her...
Dogs and dishes
Who would've thought
This could be the end of every cliche tale

It's not cliche at all...

Still so very real
And the fear
Not as deep as I thought...
Not as deep as I thought ...
Like I said
I thought I was past this
Now I know that I'm not...
Now I know that I'm not...

All I want is to find that place again
The safe haven
That lies between your outstretched arms
All I have to do is reach...

Can I trust you?
Can I trust that you'll catch me?

I was always told that I would be safe
And the day I turned around
The hand on the knife was my warrior
And even my back
Wasn't your target
You went straight for the heart
And hit it
Along with all the tendons
Surrounding it...
My band of defense

I thought I was past this...
I thought I was past this...
I thought I was past this...

I swore I was past this...
I swore I was past this...
I swore I was past this...

Just reach and fall.

Oh Baxter! You Are My Little Gentleman.

Well, its getting closer. The countdown...

In 17 days, 18 hours, and 11 minutes, I move up to Alabama...

Scary??

A little, but I'm totally psyched man!

So today, I began for the second time to go through all the crap I've collected in my room over the past couple of years... really I guess my years at Provy, 7th through 12th. Anywho, I stumbled on many many things. Including NOTES GALORE, from people such as Mallory Clark, Erica Dalton, Lauren Wright, a very funny conversation about Dietary Supplements which the author must remain anonymous. I also found a squishy ball yo-yo that I got from a party at Nick's house which filled my day with hours of fun annoying the crap out of Toby who could never quite catch that ball (evil laugh here). Sooooo much trash I also found though, like all the manuals to everything in my room from my TV, to my clocks, yes plural, only 1 of them work, my guitar tuner, my N64, yes I have one of those too, my CD player and, hahahahaha, my Zippo.

Like I need instructions for THAT! They read, Flick open top while looking as awesome as ever. Next, roll thumb over rolley part that creates a spark, why still looking very awesome. Next, CREATE FIRE!! (which if you know me at ALL, you know this is my favorite part). No, the instructions really just covered how to change the wick and spark, igniter, thingys...I'm drawing a blank here.


Oh my goodness, I'm about to go insane from the 20 or so mosquito bites I have on my ankle alone!!! Itchy, itchy itchy. And just to piss Trent off if he happens to read this. I'm itching my scratch.

Squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek, squeek....A what is is ya'll, a what's up??


Ohh yeah, yeah...


If you happen to be wondering, I've been very very bored today. Possibly cause I've been up since a really early time today, sometime around like 11:00. Haha, sorry Nichole. How's painting??


Ok, so I'm gonna go now... I gotta go follow a thing in the mall. Whatever that means. Just kidding I know what it means. Time to get di-di-di-dirrrrrty-dirrrrty. HEY MR. DJ!!!!

I'M OUT!!!!!

Countdown time now: 17 days, 17 hours, 56 minutes.

BEHOLD!!! The Queen Of All Things Wrap...

You know what... the year 1987 EFFING ROCKS! You know why??



BECAUSE THE WORLD WAS THEN GRACED WITH MY PRESENCE!!


That's right, the world effing rocks, cause I effing rock... and the year I was born effing rocks.


It's just me people...

Cause I am that good...

YEAH!

It's EARLY!













Or LATE!!













Woo!!!













Yee-haw!!













Ok, I'll stop now. Goodnight everyone,

MUCH LOVE!!!

P.S. Baby- we totally got 3 in the bag...
