We Play Endlessly.

I have come to the conclusion that I should have taken Icelandic rather than Spanish.

Sun Giant.

Good days consist of sitting outside and a lucky shuffle on the ipod.

Round Table.

Me like lie-berry.

Update: I also like Sundays, Ridge, and Elevation. A lots.

Open Your Eyes.

It's imporant to savor moments.

Step back.
Breathe.
Relax.
Not think.

Sometimes you just have to let yourself "be".

And that's all that you can do.

Adventureland.

So I just saw Adventureland. I feel the same way about it as I do Nick and Nora's.
It had it's moments. I wish Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader had been more primary than secondary characters. But the parts they were in kicked butt. That Jesse Eisenberg fella is just trying to be Michael Cera. And I hate to admit it, Eisenberg, but no one does awkward, innocent young adult better than Michael Cera. So keep trying. Kristen Stewart needs to step up her game if she wants to break the creepy vampire image. In Adventureland she's just creepy carnival homewrecker. She's just creepy all around.
Oh well. I need to re-watch Superbad.



Also, very excited about this.
Coming soon. The newest, hippest indie flick.
John Krasinski & Maya Rudolph.
Away We Go.
This is going to be oh so good.
(fingerscrossed.)

I'll Begin With A Confession.

I square danced last night.

That being said, Easter might be my favorite holiday. After Arbor Day, of course. I have a really good story to tell about church this morning but it sort of involves facial/hand movements but typing it in a blog wouldn't really do it justice.

It's been a wonderful/beautiful/prayerful/joyful/any other sort of happy-ful word day.

All Caps.

ALL I WANT IS FOR SOMEONE TO TAKE ME TO SEE DISNEY'S EARTH IN AN IMAX THEATRE WHEN IT COMES OUT.

TRAILER!

Good Friday.

Having my heart in two different places feels weird.

The Fire.

I don't want to be, like, a guy here, you know? Like, Stanley is the crossword puzzle guy, and Angela has cats. I don't wanna have a thing here, you know, I don't want to be the "something guy".

I can't believe I puked all over Burris.

smile, my friends. smile on.

I am exhausted tonight.

I like four day weeks and my friends and everything that is falling into place right now.

God is a pretty cool guy.

You're Never Giving Up.

I am so beyond grateful that four years tomorrow a family choose to give my mother life. That family is a blessing and my mother is a miracle. I know that when I see their daughter in Heaven that we all will just be in awe and rejoicing in the goodness of God. I know that I'll never, ever be able to express my love, gratitude, and compassion for her during this lifetime.

God is so good to us and we don't even realize it! He blesses us more than we know, and we just look over it and pass it by. His goodness is everywhere! Why am I just now truly beginning to see it all around me? And in me?

Did you see the sky today? It was beautiful!

The kingdom was inside that little girl!
The kingdom is inside in my mother!
The kingdom is inside me and it's aching to get out and cover this place.

Go here and just listen. Hear the words, let them seep into your heart.
We're going on the 17th.
And we've got a Suburban.

A Poem For Friday.

HEY!

That's the SUN shining out there!
It's warmer than I can bear!
This weekend is going to be BOSS!
Everyone not going, it's your loss.
But I hope you have fun here at the 'Gate,
JMM is going to be top rate.
School is almost over,
We should play Red Rover.

Advice For Your Thursday.

If it smells Moroccan,
Don't come a-knockin'.

I Read About Humility Today.

I just wrote a paper for my studies in ficiton class.
I compared the novel A Parchment of Leaves by Silas House and the song "Ragged Wood" by Fleet Foxes.

I am incredible.
