Change

So I did my final project on change.   I had people share how they came to christ and I edited the video and used all 3, but only parts of each.  I used this to show change in peoples lives and my life.  Even though this testimony doesn't exactly match mine, it's still the same basis.

Last Class

So.....

This class really stunk. I didn't have fun or get anything from it. first I knew that we would talk about the assignment so I was quite because I didn't want to talk about it because I knew I didn't do it. Also when I was called out to talk about it I didn't want to B.S. my through it because I didn't do it at all. I thought about what I wanted to do. So then I felt stupid that I didn't BS and didn't have anything to talk about, and I felt humiliated because those who did BS got the 5000 or whatever amount of points it was and I didn't.

It was also hard getting called out in front of everyone telling how I am really feeling. It was good to get the truth out, but hard. I felt like a thousand eyes were starring at me. it's hard to connect with people that we have to connect with. I'm completely different in a different setting. At work and around my friends I can be completely myself and enjoy it. At work I sing and goof off all the time. It's scary for me to do that with people that I know have completely different views than me and aren't afraid to share them.

It's crazy because last week when I was so mad I had so many different overall ideas for my final project. So I am starting to think creatively ,but not in class.

CROSS

Noun: - Structure consisting of an upright with a transverse beam especially by the actient Romans for execution.

-the cross of Jesus Christ

-Intersection of 2 ways

-cross walk, and the crossing of 2 roads

Verb: -To cancel by marking a cross on or drawing a line through



Adjective: -marked by typically transitory bad temper


- cross with anger



I decided to do the word "cross" obviously there are many meanings to the word. but The Cross means much to me. I would say that I see other meaning in my life. With crossroads I would say that I feel that a lot. I have to choose what to do, either to follow God or not, or disobey Him or not, or even crossroads in my life..career, friends, etc.... I get cross with anger all the time, either by someone, or hurt feelings, or I don't get my way.

Cross is the main word, but many words have the word cross in them, such as crossroads(which I completely used above), crosswalk, across, etc.... Cross is the main word, and that is how The Cross is in my life. It should be and is center in my life. Everything revolves around the Cross.

Last Class

It's interesting because I still can't get over the fact that I said that what we did as a team was cheesy. I know the only reason I said it was because I was scared of what people thought about it. I liked the idea I came up with the idea. I was just so worried that people would think that it was dumb when really it wasn't. everyone had a different interpretation for what their topic was. That day I even blogged on how I wanted to express what I was feeling and not be ashamed of it, or share my opinion. And of course I did i again. But I thought it was fun and helpful because most of the time I have good ideas right away ,but I think they are stupid so I push them to the side.

Midterm

So This semester I have been such a slacker and so busy, which really doesn't go together, but oh well. But Iwould have to say that getting what I really believe and opened myself up has been good. I honestly think that class would be like this, as in talking and opening up. I thought we would do projects and stuff, but it's cool how we are learning to think outside of the box and differently.

The single most important thing that I would like to take away would have to be really comfortable with my opinions and know what they are. I want to be able to share my ideas and or opinions and not worry about what other people think.

Sensory Addict

So I really didn't know what to do for theis assignment. I thought about comparing the cheap brand of oreos to the real version, but that didn't work out. This weekend I experienced a lot of sensoryness......hahaha not sure what that word is, but it works. We stayed in a cabin with a bunch of girls and there were many other cabins because it was a retreat. First off our cabing smelt like sulfer because of the water, that was pretty disturbing. Then We had Saturday afternoon free. So some of us went hiking and the lake was frozen over so we chucked some rocks and saw the ice break, we tested the ice with our feet to see how thin it was, and of course it was reall thin. Later I was trying to jump over a metal railing, but in attempt to do so I didn't make it and landed on my shin in the bar and fell on the ground. So in that instance I felt a lot through our touch sensory. then I thought it would be a brilliant idea to wade across a creak that had freezing cold water running through it and a huge cliff that dumped into a deep pond waited for us a few feet away. I took off my shoes and rolled up my pants and started to walk across. Needless to say I only made it a foot when I slipped and fell, cut my foot and knee. I walked back and put my shoes on, well sort of. Blood was getting on my beautiful Chuck Taylors. the incident hurt but not as much as the iodine and rubbing alcohol that was to disinfect the area so I didn't get a disease. So the weekend was packed full of stuff that needed senses. But when I came back I still didn't know if that would be good so I bought a package cookies and pretty much downed them the taste was awesome to the tongue. the sweetness of the chocolate and the sweetness of the cookie in general was so amazing. I hadn't had a cookie in forever, that's a lie. I just LOVE cookies!!! I'm an addict of cookies. They are SENSORLICIOUS!! As I am typing this out I am laughing histarically at myself and my roommate probably thinks I'm crazy, but I won't tell her that I almost devoured a half of package of chocolatechip cookies.

Sorry it's late

Crazy Quantum Physics (if that's how you spell it)

I thought the movie was very interesting. It was a little hard to pay attention in the beginning though. I thought it was very interesting how they talked about where different feeling and emotions came from, I guess they are one in the same. But I liked some parts, and some parts were a little weird, like when they started talking about God. To be honest I don't remember what was said or what I thought exactly, but I do remember having a strong opinion about that topic. My thoughts are that God created everything, and we can't really determine everything that happens to, but people try to explain everything and come up with an explanation. This probably doesn't make sense, but it does in my mind. Over all I thought it was very interesting
