Ash Wednesday

Hmm. I have decided to go on a breathtaking trip to Taiwan and help out the underprivileged kids there. Yeah that program had tons of paperwork, and i still need to write the essay for it. Right now, Josephine, Elliott, and I all turned in these forms, but we have to see if the Aidsummer program accepts us because out of the 700+ people who are applying only 300 lucky SOBs can make it. WHOO theres a 57% chance that we WONT make it. bummer. but i hope you all pray for us because we really want to make a difference in this world. (and we kinda sorta want the certificate they give that would look ultra mega good on our transcripts)

Anyways today is Ash Wednesday! i got anointed at school, but it turns out that Aaron Banico was a bit messy and drew this half-star thing when its supposed to be a cross. o well. Uhh for Lent i've decided to give up

1. cussing
2. "that's what she said" jokes
3. the thing Ephraim and I discussed
   
4. being mean (basically im gonna try to be way nicer)
5. spitting gum at Gelene (lol.)
6. some time for prayer
7. facebook/myspace
   

i think thats about it.. if u got anything to add to this list just tell me =]

you know, its starting to piss me off how the people who you think are your friends always leave you behind. like u tell them to wait while you do sumthing but they just keep walking. that's so freakin shady. or like when some other friends always plan to do things together and you dont find out until AFTER they've done it, cause they never considered inviting you, even tho you're friends. its like, what the freak. what kind of friends are you. i'm just here, trying to get closer to our group, and u guys just leave me in the dust. thats so gay. God. GOD. its so frustrating!! no one ever tells me anything. ugh. and its hard to explain all this without cussing lol. dang.
