[witty blog title here]

yeah i got nothing.
i'm starting this blog without any thought of the direction for it. this could end badly. you have been forewarned. it's Sunday night and i'm at home, cuddling in bed. it's nice. not that i've been here all night,  (i'm not that lame, just close) Kristen and i went to lunch and Borders, then after i did some home work and she saw Domenic, we met up again and headed to the mall, i got some pants, and walked around for awhile. then we went and watched a movie...
jeez, when i type it out it doesn't sound that fun... sorry Kristen, i'm no good at describing our adventures, maybe you have to be there?
Church was pretty good this morning, it seems like the "youth section" is shrinking though, you guys need to step it up! =]
this week is pretty basic, school, club j, girls group, more school... but i actually am really enjoying my classes, i just need to get some homework done, break makes me fall out of that habit to quickly.

recently the discipleship team had a discipline, we had to write out 3 letters to the people who had influenced us a lot. i wrote mine to Kevin, Pattie Fisher and Matt Knapp. let me tell you, if you've never done that before, it really makes you think and realize how much the people in your life not only mean to you, but it shows you how much they care about you.
i got a thank you card back from Matt, he said that he hadn't ever realized how much he meant to me. but shouldn't that be something we're just telling each other? Mrs, Fisher texted me after she read hers as well, saying some of the same things (i was with Kevin when he read his)
frankly, it feels good to tell them what they mean to me and how they have changed me for the better. and if i've ever done that for someone else, we'll i'd like to know. not that i'm expecting everyone to start writing letters for whoever has come into their life. but it's so easy to say thank you, maybe we should start spreading that around.
that's my profound thought of the day. start saying thank you to those who mean a lot to you.

random fact
i have a scar from a Lego dinosaur on the bottom of my left foot, it hurt a lot.
peace out,
