Hello all my Sonic the Hedgehog fans out there. I have been captivated by G-d again. I went to Sunergos today which is my regular Friday morning routine and basically just read the Bible for a good hour or so. Spent most of that time in 1 Corinthians and I just read and read. 3:18 really stood out to me; I guess it is the whole fact of humility. So many people have just let that fly out of the window. I know, I know; you have to be your own biggest fan and a little swagger now and then is necessary, but humility will take you a long way. That just really caught my attention this morning and I ran with it.
Getting married in almost three weeks now. The pressure is mounting and there is still some stuff left to do, but I can't wait. It's going to be way to fun with everyone coming down. The bachelor party, the rehearsal cookout, the dancing that will take place at the reception. Not even to mention I'M GETTING MARRIED!!!!
Here's something I wrote awhile back....
I find it funny that the man in the mirror would scream infidelities like he does.
If he only knew who he was really screaming at.
That he might... learn to speak kinder words or at least a little gentler.
I wonder how he would feel; plastered against the opposite of a more confined and quieter space.
Would he then understand the range of emotions one could go through in a single day?
Could he comprehend the joy of a racing heart?
Should he be able to realize the confounding notions of an armful of goosebumps?
But then why again am I envious of this cowardly figure?
He who just sits there until I come by, and wishes he could fiure why I'm such a stickler for
My G-d, my girl, my gracious good graces
Granting granules of sugar to gratify gallons of tea that he only wished could quench his thirst.
Lord, am I really talking about my reflection?
Buying a house, stalling on car, needing some Indy, finishing up semester, writing down vows, listening to music, working at Avalon(www.avalonfresh.com), and seeking my G-d. Anybody want to join me?
I can't even explain how I feel. Homesick? Disapointed? Dilusional?
So this will be all over the place just to let you know. Getting some stuff down for the wedding. Tuxes are picked out, Groomsmen gifts are figured out, and guest list almost finalized.
Car is totaled; I figured that out a couple days ago, when I talked to Jason (whom I still don't trust totally). How come I feel like I've been cheated during this whole process? I need to figure if I have gap insurance with National City because more than likely I'm missing out on 3 grand or so. If I don't have gap insurance, I hopefully can add it onto my next auto loan when I get a new car. I'm thinking Mitsubishi this time around folks. I'd love to support the American car companies, but if my dream car is available...
I don't know, we'll see what happens. It'll still be two weeks or so before I know for sure what's happening.
Everything is crazy though. School 5 days a week, work has been tumultuous as of late, and little sleep goes a long way. Finances aren't the best. Feels like my life is on a ferris wheel, and I'm sitting with one of those kids that like to rock the boat. More on this later kiddies, much love.
My fellow Americans, there is a state of emergency right now in the metropolitan area of Louisville, KY. Seriously, in my opinion, it's not that bad out. I really want to go sledding right now.... You have no idea. So i guess over night there was about an inch or two of freezing rain. Then it started snowing again, which it still is. I'm about to go out and play in it and also take some pictures with my fiance. I don't know if I'm going to go into work or not.
The car thing has escalated. It is now impounded. One officer said I had up to a week to get it off the street. I thought that was a bit liberal, but since he is an officer of the law I took his word as truth. Well five days later, a different officer had it impounded on the premise that it was an abandoned vehicle in a parking violation. So which one is right? I'm trying to get it out today, but then again, that state of emergency... All I know is that I'm fighting that impoundment fee all the way. I'm tired of this so much. Such a pain in the butt hole.
So I was headed to a new coffeshop that I heard about from my school in downtown Louisville. I had about an hour to spare before work so I thought I would just grab some hot tea and read for an hour. I pull up to Barret and Broadway prepared to turn and did so because I saw it was clear. Well there was a huge truck in front of me so I didn't see the Ford Taurus going about 40 or so mph ready to go through the intersection. COLLISION!! Both cars hit kind of head on. My entire front end of my Mustang is gone. I would be surprised if it was not totaled. The Taurus wasn't that bad though and was drivable although not very well. So, I guess my relationship with Candice is over; and only after a short 7 or so months.... I took a couple pictures with my phone so I'll put those up after I get it hooked up to the computer later. The pictures seriously don't do the real thing justice. I'm really just glad that everyone was okay. The other four people in the Taurus all went to the hospital to make sure they were okay, but mostly it was just bumps and bruises. Although Candice will be missed; I'm alive so it's all good and well.
To start it off for the first week I was running all over JCC's campus trying to get enrolled and financial aid figured out. Seems like I'm going to have to pay for all of my school again... Then there comes the glorious little things like standing in a hella long line to get a parking pass, learning the lay of the land because parking is not just a beast; but the hungriest Godzilla you have ever met, and running around the building because you haven't the foggiest idea where the nearest bathroom is. I love it though. When you are not in school you don't want to be in school, and when you get out of school you are glad. However when I get into it, I love the learning process. I'm taking three classes and my practicum. There is Garde Manger, Human Relations Management, and Intro to Music. All of my professors are laid back and cool and it seems to be an easy semester.
I've been busy also working. The Brown Hotel has been going. Even though it is slow, we keep ourselves busy. I hate it though because a lot of people can be petty. There is only a handful of people that I continually hang out with. When I eventually leave here, it'll be a sad but good day.
Wedding stuff is coming along as well. Invitations will be forthcoming. We're finishing them up this week. Janet has been working non-stop on stuff it seems. I need to finish the music list. All I got to say is that reception is going to be nuts!!! It's going to be hard to talk to everyone while this music is going on. Oh, well. You gotta do what you gotta do.
Mostly to wrap up there has been good days, but there also has been really bad days so far this year. I'll just keep my head up and as I was once told. "Get back up" Stay tuned my fellow human beings; this ride is not over yet.
Well in this next year I will have graduated from college and get married!!! Two big goals in life will get knocked out. Other ones will probably be scratched off the list, but I don't want to say anything just yet, because you never know what'll happen. The biggest thing I'll be working on is my relationship with God. Like I said before my time with Him is so sporadic and unscheduled. It does no justice at all to the one who created me and has done so much for me. A happy new year to all and I'll be praying that you do big things and inspire others to do even greater!
I'll look into it. read more
on all in all, it's fantastique
