charleston is a sweet little place to visit. i'm not too fond of tourists (though i suppose i was one myself ), so that's the only downfall to such a wonderful spot on the map. i was thinking it would be a fun place to live at for a few months. i wouldn't want to live there too long...it's super humid and hot! but it would be fun for awhile :-)
i had a nice weekend eating seafood and drinking sweet tea (my favorite southern treat!!) in charleston. the beach out there is pretty nice, too.
i have so many memories in charleston...it was hard to go anywhere without laughing. the irish pub is still there! i think my fav memories are...
--walking down the battery in the rain at 3am
--running to the gazebo for no apparent reason...
--that ALERT guy wearing Mary's high heels. haha!
--all my stupid quotes *sigh*
--FLY LIKE AN EAGLE (the I-HOP dance w/ Mary)
--making fun of the the funny surfer guy and then realizing that he was 'for real.'
--eating at stranger's houses...the cute dog...the quaint porch swing...
--"WHY DO I......." oh, nevermind.
favorite columbia memories:
--the 'cell phone porch' at our cabin @ the Y
--the SWINGS!
--throwing phil in the lake
--the trip to the mall
i would love to relive that trip. i had so much fun, i was so stupid, and it was awesome.
i want to fly like an eagle...*dances*

sometimes people surprise you...confuse you...dissapoint you....ok. so i was surprised by someone today. i was also infuriated by some people (not that i won't tell you who....AIU administration, particuarly Student Accounts and the Registrar's office...please, yes, DO spread gossip about them. quickly. and if you want to hurt them, that's okay, too!! feel free :-)).
anyway, that's about all i had to say.

have you ever sat in an a church service where the people pull out the hymnal and sing solemnly as if at a funeral? empty of emotion, they sing the words on the page, not comprehending (or caring to notice) the meaning of the lyrics. that's about how i felt northpoint was this morning. the band was wonderful, the songs meaningful, and yet the people starred at the screen. i'm serious. i don't think i heard a single person singing. they all stood there with blank stares and almost in a vegetative state, as if they were on their couches watching saturday morning cartoons (minus the emotion). which got me to thinking, if we really believed all this stuff we say we believe, why don't we have passionate worship? it really bothered me.
and then came the time for "turn around and meet the person next to you...shake a hand or two" bit. normally, i strike up conversation with someone, however small and meaningless it may be...but i quickly found out that they don't even care to know your name. a quick handshake and a brisk "hi" was almost asking too much.
and, of course, as usual, i ended up going on the sunday he didn't preach...the sunday where he introduces plans for a new building. i have a knack for that somehow.
oh, and about half way through the sermon, i finally figured out that he wasn't actually there. it was one of those hi-resolution things. i was like, "oh my gosh, he's not there! i JUST noticed."
okay, wow...that was a long post. well, i'm off to the movies. ta, ta!

still have yet to register for classes this fall...absolutley exhausted from fighting with people to do their job. it infuriates me that some people actually get paid to be stupid and lazy.
the frustrations continue today with judgementalness. it is totally beyond me why some people think of it as a hobby and go around looking for trouble. there are some completely crazy, distirbed people out there. thank God i'm not around it as much anymore. things i would normally not even consider doing, such as snapping back, would come very easily to me right now. *grin*
on to the brighter things in life...*smile* visiting northpoint community church tomorrow. i'm excited, but it's not like me to attend megachurches...so we'll see. you never know!! i'm sure i'll update later.
walked the dogs today. oh my gosh, i just love dogs. i can't imagine life without them!
