hmm...i decided to be happy today. i think i'll decide to be happy tomorrow too... so, cross country workout wasn't very hard, in fact, it barely seemed like a day...john got 10 miles yesterday and a whole bunch of people got 8 or so, so the varsity group just did 5 at a relaxed pace. i didn't feel like running by myself, so i got about 4.5 with tyler at a relaxed pace slower than what varsity did...which is kinda fun. then, book buy. and...i got locker 102 and here's my classes: analysis h, ap comp sci (my dream class...), ap physics b, ap spanish lang, cross country (boys...i didn't get an option though), english III, jazz band III, publications - hallway (not sure why...), US history. and...locker 102. yup...we have some kind of speed workout tomorrow. and it'll be hot...still need to read. on a plus side, tomorrow's friday night. and on a deeper plus, saturday (the day after tomorrow...yes, like the movie) is some pool party or whatnot. and...i have cross country monday and tuesday...and probably band practice too. and that tobymac (i heard a burn for you remix today on the Kross...there's two on the cd though) remix album is out in 19 days...and these are the SAT words i learned today: equivocate, ubuiquitous, gratuitous...something else.

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. And not only that, but we also glory in tribulations, knowing that tribulation produces perseverance; tribulation produces perseverance; and perseverance, character; and character, hope. Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who has given to us. Romans 5:1-5
hmm...junior year was one i was looking forward to. i associated it in my mind with independence, but in truth or reality, it truly becomes dependence. i'll have that kind of freedom, you could say...i'll either be at school most of the time or home doing schoolwork (obsessively). more of me will have the need to be self-sufficient...but what that really means to me is that God will start playing a larger role in my life. certainly i'm incapable of being independent...it is in God where we find hope, success, happiness, true independence from sin. this year is awesome for many other reasons. in mexico city and the arkansas retreat, you could even date it back to the lock-in, ATF, and retreat (which are clearly not obsolete), i said i would do it. whatever it was, i would do it. and...i've struggled with that recently. but this is a new year, and i'm possibly at a spiritual peak. He'll open some new doors, bring some new people, teach me more about myself so i can strive for Him more. through Him, we have hope and so much more. hope for our generation and hope for school and hope for our burdens. another reason is...i have no idea what's going to happen socially. already, old relationships are revived and new ones formed. i have no idea what's going to happen in the first week or so in my hunt for good company. but i can be pretty sure it'll be awesome, if i find it or not. holland hall could use a revolution... class of 07. this is a good year. plenty of room for error. plenty of room for success. more room for God, i pray.
