SteevAK

Today, I was planning on going to another concert, but, after some more thought, I don’t think I’ll go. I’ll be going alone to see two bands I’ve just seen in concert, and I’m going to another show for sure tomorrow night.

Stacey has been gone for the past couple of days and so has Dan. Stacey is gone, so I’m lonely. Dan is gone, so I have my room to myself, which is a very nice change. Actually, I’ve been kinda drowning out thoughts of Stacey with my computer and puttering around online. It passes the time quickly, and I’m not thinking about her. If I do start thinking about her, I miss her a lot. I’m pathetic I know. She gets back today. Her plane should have landed at Seatac about 45 minutes ago.

Just so people don’t get the wrong idea about my “puttering around online”, I’ve been quite busy with some bulletin boards. I’m actively involved in a mormon board, asking the Saints questions and making them work. I’m also becoming more involved in a protestant {theology board} in the “general theology” and “predestination vs. freewill” topics. If you care to see what I’m discussing or just what it is all about, visit them! I find it rather informative and makes me work. My handle is Archangel_777; if you see that person, it’s me. Other stuff I’ve been doing is chatting with friends back home (Dave Baker, Micah McGuire) and other people like Ashleigh Batton who I know from Chugiak H.S. days. Oh yeah, I also download a lot of mp3s that I find.

I saw U-571 last night with a bunch of guys from my floor. We filled up almost the entire row. It was cool. The movie was pretty good. I would recommend it. I mean it’s not spectacular, but it is worth the watch. The plot may seem kind predictable, but give it a break. There’s not a whole lot you can do with a submarine.

Tomorrow is Easter. It will be a weird Easter for me. I don’t know if I will even make it to a church. Haha, even heathens make it to church on Easter Sunday! Hahaha! Sheesh. I’m still unsure if I’m really missing a whole lot. Everything that I got out of church before I still get: Christian fellowship, growing in the knowledge of the scriptures, ministry opportunities. and times of worship. I just don’t get it all in one nice, little, neat shot on Sunday from 11 to 12:30. If anything, I have gotten more of all of the stuff I just listed. However, there is a strong push among Christians to go to church, and often I succumb to the notion that I’m doing something wrong by not going to church. I think it is wrong to assume that a Christian is “backsliding” because they don’t attend an organization housed in a building. I’m not backsliding, and I’m not going to a specific church either. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking churches. I think they perform a very valuable and necessary function for both the Christian and secular communities. Because I’m attending a Christian university, I think I’m able to get the benefits of a church outside of a church. When I graduate, I will have to find a church. Heck, I’ll probably find one long before I graduate anyway.

Enough of my rambling! Stacey just called and she’s coming over! She’s back! Yeah! Bye bye.

Tip of the day: Watch your pop tarts. They might get burnt.
