I'm...dreaming of a whiiiiite....Christmas!!!!
[*I was]
Snowfall is beginning to get on my nerves just a 'lil... x] while shoveling the driveway, [anyone else have to do that? Not fun, right?] It's clean one night, and when my wrestling coach calls, yeah, looks like I can make it. Wake up the next day, or even worse, couple hours later and BOOM.
"Where'd all this [insert expletive of choice] SNOW come from?!?" *sobs*
But hey, Christmas was good, right? Xbox360 over here for my littlest brother, which is cool, I guess... I got some more practical stuff...^^ Sports duffel...sweatshirt...FAT 2 gig USB! With designs! And the cap is attatched, which is a lifesaver for me.. allways losing small things like that.
What'd you guys get? ^^
"Life needs a man to be fierce-and fiercely devoted. The wounds he will take throughout his life will cause him to lose heart if all he has been trained to be is soft."
~John Eldridge
My wrestling coach is one of the coaches/teachers for some off-campus wrestling club. This is a quote posted on their website!
*I think I'm too 'soft' a guy... especially with this extened break...fat and lazy...^^ Find the will to work, the will to move, the will to pump iron, whatever. Discipline. But it's sooo easy to procrastinate! Heh. Like Christmas/B-day presents, like working and working out.
*You guys hear about Israel/Palestine? Clicked a news ticker and... reading, watching the msnbc slideshow... damn, I'm thinking. How different a life those Gaza strip ppls live, right? 'Fierce'. Compared to meh.
""My son is gone, my son is gone," wailed Said Masri, a 57-year-old shopkeeper, as he sat in the middle of a Gaza City street, slapping his face and covering his head with dust from a bombed-out security compound nearby. He said he had sent his 9-year-old son out to purchase cigarettes minutes before the airstrikes began and could not find him. "May I burn like the cigarettes, may Israel burn," Masri moaned. "
There's also that LA 'rampage' stuff. And just... damn... the news can get depressing. x] The kids are a 'lil... sober, right now...x]
*hugs* From Preston, 'cause he's realizing just how much he misses y'all...xD Partly from this gaza pic slideshow I'm scanning and also having watched Wall.E for like third time... [second, 'cause I went w/ my brothers, third 'cause my mom rented it, wanted to watch it]. For anyone who hasn't, it's a sweet movie...'cute...x] I'm a guy, what am I supposed to say?
'Fierce' and 'fiercely devoted'...Huh. But can you love 'fiercely,' or is being fierce just about glaring and being macho? *muses* 'MANLY'....xD Oh wow... I remember Mr. Black having the perfect voice... describing, what, Romans? The Roman value of MANLINESS. And how what's-his-name from the Aneid was totally MANLY. [or a jerk]
SLUSH/ICE!
Anyways... happy post.... holidayssss !!!!!!! ^^
See some of you soon, 'aight?
