As Promised

Well my life hasn't been too interesting the past few days. Just a couple of projects over the weekend. That wasn't fun, but I'm done with all my work! Thank Jesus....I never thought this day would come!!!!

The results aren't as pleasing as they would have been if I had worked just a little bit harder. But still...I'm pretty pleased with 5 A's and 2 B+'s for my fourth quarter. We'll see what that does for my GPA when I get my report card. Other news in school. All we've been doing in classes these last two days is signing yearbooks. Not too shabby. Bad news today though, I have homework for AP Bio over the summer. No fun.

Preview of the Summer:

-I'm going to Spokane on the 24th to do a mission trip. I won't be getting back until the first Saturday/Sunday of July. Be in prayer that God'll use me in many ways on that trip. I will be doing outreach to the homeless over in Spokane, and I hope that I can do what God wants while I'm over there. THE HOMELESS LIKE CRIBBAGE!!!

-I need a job. I'm hoping to make some mulah over the summer. Right now, I have no money, so I'm in dire need. Two local places I think would be awesome to work at are Safeway (flexible hours) and Starbucks (free coffee). We'll see what God has planned with that.

-I need my license. As long as I don't have my license, my independence is restricted. Definite motivation to get that license. Jacob, when I get my license, say goodbye to the car. :D

-Cinderella. I'm way pumped for this summer's production of Cinderella. I'll be learning how to ballroom dance professionally with Krista Gibbon. Krista's a sweety, and I think we'll have a great time. That's right ladies, Nathan will know how to dance...and well, might I add. Everyone has to come see Cinderella the last two weekends of July! (I think those are the only times)

So plenty of prayer items for this little boy:
1) Help w/ AP Bio hw.
2) God's guidance on the mission trip.
3) Providing the right job for me over the summer.
4) Help with the license process.
5) Success in Cinderella!

I can't wait for the summer. I will be trying to hang out with people in all my spare time. Until summer starts, I'm listening to Rascal Flatts constantly. Those guys are really good. I'll be listening to them all summer, along with my other favs.

Well...It's time for me to go do some reading to prepare for the mission trip! Moisie-poo and Boo-Boo, you two need to get online when I'm on...I miss talking with you two. Wish me luck in my busy next few school-free weeks!

A New Look

So I changed my blog. I'll be fixing the sidebar in the near future. This is just the result of a free day and boredom. Let me know if you think it needs something, has too much, or just sucks. I don't know if I'm done with it. Leave comments please. I need imput! This is the 4eyed bandit signing out.



I want to be out of school.....NOW!

An Update?

I know you all probably thought I was dead, since I haven't updated in a while. Or..not. Well, a couple of updates in my life.

Finals suck. Last night I fell asleep studying for my spanish final I took today (and got a 90%). Today, I will probably be doing the same thing with science.

Celtic music rocks. I know I sound nerdy saying this, but it really does. Have you ever really listened to it? It relaxes me and it sounds so clean. I don't really know, just listen to celtic music everyone.

I think that relationships are the hardest thing God gave us to deal with. It's just sucks when you try hard to be nice to others, and they abuse the friendship you offer them. I would like to apologize to anyone I've ever done that to. I think I'm gradually growing used to being taken advantage of. I can't decide if this is a good or bad thing. On the good side, I have less of an expectation for genuine care from others so I don't get too disappointed when they do their deeds. On the other hand, the whole situation gives me an overall negative look at the world and how people, in general, treat each other. This gives me very little hope for having the type of relationships I've been promised and hoping for.

Hard as it is, I've been trying to keep a positive outlook on these events. Trusting someone you can't see is hard to do when your trust has been abused so many times before, but I'm trying to rely on the promise God has given me for a good life. Keep me in your prayers as I face these obstacles, especially that I can face them with a smile and ability to remember my future.

Off I go to have the relaxation given to me by celtic music overcome by the stress of finals.

I'm Such a Nerd

Today, I got glasses. Life is so much better when you can see. I've always seen everything pretty blurry, and no defined lines. Now...I see all the lines! I love being able to see. Well, they're black rims, kinda rectangle, and they are pretty thin framees for plastic. Overall message, I have four eyes, look like a nerd, and can see.

Goodbye 5 on the AP Physics Test

Today I found out that the much loved T-Rob is leaving Kentridge Highschool. I couldn't be happier for the guy. He's struggled with our administration for a while, and he'll be moving on to bigger and MUCH BETTER things. I, however, am now screwed. T-Rob was basically my ticket to a 5 on my AP Physics test which I will be taking my senior year. Now I'm sure that I will be struggling to receive a 2 under the instruction of a different teacher.

Ryan Douglas wrote a very true and eye opening blog concerning this issue. His link is on the side and I would suggest that you all read it.
