I've spent over twelve hours mistakenly doing the wrong essay for my French lit class but by God it is a damn good paper and I am turning it in regardless!

After working on my latest French paper from 10pm to 3am, only to have it half way finished, I realized that I am never going to not be writing something for school this week.

I need a week long vacation so I can catch up/get ahead, and then I need another week vacation where I don't do anything school related.

Proloue: Death of the Umbrae [Nov. 7th, 2009|12:10 am]

dj_89

In our world, there are two selves to each person. The one that everyone sees and interacts with, that everyone can touch and feel and hear and smell, is our Luminary. The other is our Umbra. In ancient times, everyone knew of both parts, and they nourished and cherished each as separate and whole. They understood that without one half, you could not have the other; and that even though the Umbra could not be seen, it was equally important as the Luminary. But something happened. The Philosophers came with their Light-giving, and put emphasis on only the Luminary, pushing back the Umbra to the shadows, where they said it belonged. We buried them deep within ourselves, smothering them, rendering them nearly useless. Some people attempted to revolt, but only succeeded in creating dark monsters, deformed beings who could see only the Umbra and who lived entirely in its world. We had no balance. We had only extremes. Our Luminaries took over, and our Umbrae receded into a seemingly harmless existence

Until we started dying.

Everyone.

The Philosophers tried to reason their way through. They applied all the skills they had discovered. Until finally they chose the best remedy they knew—apathy. They ignored the problem. People suppressed any thought that entertained the real reason behind the sickness, madness and ultimately, death. Our Umbrae were sick, and as a last effort, they were reasserting themselves. But no one knew this until it was nearly too late.

...We are married to a loving God who gave His life so we could live; but He is also "a consuming fire, a jealous God" (Deuteronomy 4:24).  When we allow our heart to become attracted to the things of this world or controlled by its set of values, we become an adulterous bride; "Don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God?" (James 4:4).

Many of our discussions of what is "acceptable" behavior for the bride of Christ, miss the true essence of our relationship.  We are to be passionately in love!  Our greatest desire should be to do those things which please the Bridegroom, not to cause Him grief as we live on the cold edge of what is "allowable."  Everything is allowable!  But what are the things which properly express our love?

This is probably the most misunderstood, and easily misconstrued concept out there.  It just feels wierd having it drilled in me, yet again.  

To love the world is harder than it seems.

The destiny of man is not measured by material computations.  When great forces move around in the world we learn that we are spirits not animals.  ...and there is something going on in time and space and beyond time and space, which whether we like it or not spells duty.

I think it's about time for a terrifically random facts update [Oct. 28th, 2009|12:51 am]

[Current Mood |random!]


( insert subject line here)

i finished writing my shakespeare paper earlier than i expected and i drank some coffee and for once the caffeine is affecting me. I did all my laundry, cleaned my room, cleared up some space on my computer and did some yoga all after 1:30 at night. of course, i'll pay for it in the morning when i'm groggy and crabby in my Virginia Woolf class(which i actually quite enjoy contrary to my previous thoughts on VW)

since my fall break, it seems that a billion and one things have happened without anything really happening.....actually it started before fall break, so i guess i have to go back farhter than i suspected.

the week before fall break i think i got doused in pheromones that screamed to males "HIT ON ME! NOW!" in one sense, it was was very flattering. in another i kind of wanted to live in an all female society for a couple days. The first occurrence was by a spanish guy. why it took me coming all the way back home for a spanish guy to hit on me hardcore beats me, but maybe it's just because i could understand where his culture a bit. So i was talking to this kid on facebook jsut small talk and all of a sudden he pronounces that he loves me. yeah, really? cause we've never even talked before. i wasn't uite sure if he was joking, because you know, instant messaging can be dificult to decipher. but then he got extremely crude. i won't even repeat it, but let's just say that if he had said it to me in person and not online, he would no longer be able to have children. i didn't react as rudely in words as what i was thinking though because mostly i was just shocked. what a great experience, right? the next instance was much more decent and actually rather nice, so it was this crazy contrast between guys. Just when i was starting to think that guys were a hopeless endeavor and as i was beginning to contemplate running off to a nunnery(ok, maybe not that dramatic), i got asked out in a extremely traditional, albeit random way. one of my acquaintances i guess you could call him, came to my house and wanted to know if i would go out to dinner with him. i was fairly impressed. never before has a guy just come right out and asked me. so i said yes, even though i don't really know him that well and i'm not really that attracted to him. (is that horrible of me to give false hope?) it was a prety nice date, but there weren't any sparks or anything. it mostly just felt like hanging out with a friend. i'v talked with him on the phone a few times, and we might hang out again, but i dunno....
all of this has started me thinking a lot about my self-image issues. i realized that i get really uncompfortable when people compliment my physical appearance. and i actually talked with one of my guys friends(who used to have a crush on me at the beginning onf the semester???what???) about this. (actually we only talked about it because he made a point to ask meabout ti since i had mentioned it at church that morning while we were talking with a group of friends. we had a happy circle that morning/afternoon because it seemed kind of necessary. that was a pretty awesome sunday...see facebook for cool pictures of it, haha) but anyway, i really am not sure why i think i'm not beautiful. but i guess i've kind of realized that that is what i think sometimes. and whenever i try to reason out why i feel this way, my thoughts get all jumbled and mangled and go off on tangents. but i think it's starting to form some kind of pattern that has to do with how i have never dated anyone while everyone else in my family has, that i don't have a significant other, that every guy i've liked hasn't liked me back, and that when guys have liked me, it tends to be in awkward ways or situation. also that i have a lot of friends that i think are just gorgeous including my sister, and i always seem to feel like i'm the "smart"one, not the "pretty" one. which i know is a bit silly because i don't have to be labelled, but that is just what people do, they label themselves to have some sort of identity. so there is my miniature identity crisis. sometimes i wish it were as easy as my userpic made it look......

on less deep occurrences in my life...i am going to have a crapload of busy weekends coming up. ready for this? ok.
this weekend: fall retreat for campus crusade! i'm excited for this.
next weekend (nov. 7): choir concert and youthfest. basically i get to have my weekend sucked up by my choir and toting around highschoolers who are watching us/trying to learn from us. ha!
nov. 13- writing conference at BGSU!!!! i'm super exctied for this. at the beginning of the semester one of my english profs asked me if i wanted to go to this conference with five or six other students. it's a conference with mostly grad students, so it is going to be an awesome experience, and hopefully i'll learn a lot about writing. plus, i'll be in BG so i will most likely be able to see Ruth and maybe even Emily!!!!!!!!
nov. 20- music theater performance. my first ever! i'm excited but right now kind of freaking out because we haven't even memorized or blocked all the scenes. yikes. also, the week before this is international week and i'm hosting a one mile barefoot walk with my housemates!!!!!!!!! so awesome, if you don't know about the kind of walk go here www.takethewalk.net it'll explain it. also, i have to miss the annual international dinner for my music theater performance. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. i'm extremely angry about that, but what can you do?
weekend after is thanksgiving! and then only three weeks after that til the end of the semester. like i said--crazy.
oh! and i am registering for my classes tomorrow. hoepfully i'll get the ones i want.
hopefully soemtime soon i will have more writing or stories to post here. i've been very musically creative in the past week, writing a couple songs(lyrics at least) and the beginnings of some melodies and stuff. i lvoe writing songs, but i get frsutrated because i actually have to work at it. go figure.
