OOoooOoOoOOooo

yes finally. it gets tiresome sometimes. blogging i mean.

==================================================
MAC girl's varsity soccer team had their first game today. it was just exhibition, good thing, cuz we lost 1-0. which isn't bad, considering that only a few people on our team actually moved most of the game (i wasn't one of them) and the other team had about 50 shots on net. and we only had 3 subs the whole game...which weren't used much at all. some of our best players weren't there, and the other team, churchill CI, was an ARMY compared to ours. AND they cheered a lot more too. of course i woulda cheered/encouraged more if i wasn't trying to moisten my lips the whole time, and if my mouth didn't feel like cotton. *note: need to get a 1L nalgene bottle* BUT our actual games start next week, and we're only having 1 practice this week. how silly! O_o oooh well! any time to play soccer is better than nothing =D

i noticed that a lot of Christians don't find their schools a place to be as 'godly' or good as they are in, say, church. it's so much easier to ignore it at school when we cuss, make crude jokes, argue with our teachers, or complain than when we're at church or some christian environment...it's quite sad, because people who know we are Christians look at our lives and judge the religion by what we do. we're a living sacrifice to God--at school too, mind you. as a matter of fact, i think God's children would shine even more at school, cuz we're actually different from everyone else. just like a goldfish would stand out from a group of...guppies, so we should stand out as God's children in a crowd of non-christians.

"15My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one. 16They are not of the world, even as I am not of it." [john 17:15-16]

and another thing i've thought of...it's not just our peers that we are witnessing to, but our teachers too. this one time alfred preached that everything we do either draws someone closer to heaven or away from it. every argument we have with them, or gossip about them...that may be one step away from heaven, too.

===============================================
so about htis weekend-----i got to play some softball with ETers...soo fun! but i got an inch of bruise on my forearm cuz i can't bat worth...the green. you see, my batting ability is so bad that i kept hitting myself with the bottom of the bat. :P (it's actually not that bad, but i tend to exaggerate wounds) can't wait for summer to start so i don't have to worry about homework while playing. XP and got to meet with Alice to pray and talk about O's this season.

" 13Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14Is any one of you sick? He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord. 15And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven. 16Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective." [James 5:13-16]

oh yes. and i made an oracles logo that won't be used..but had fun making. XD these are the variations.

and a random fact about me. i dislike drinking water out of a cup...i have to drink it out of a bottle. and Nestle water tastes wierd. overly chlorinated, perhaps.

i'll do more later. i think a series of little posts are more interesting than one gigantic one. =)
