Snow

I thought about a couple titles for this post.  All different ways of presenting that fact right there.  Snow.  It is here.  Outside.  Lots of it.  And it is awesome.  If only Jake were not currently in possession of my vehicle 2 hours away.  But regardless,  I am ecstatic.  There is something about snow that is just.  Really awesome.  Everyone including myself overuse that word, but snow is just.  something to be in awe over.  For me at least.  All of the positive stimulus with Christmas and the music and...it just is heavenly.  I would hate to live in the midwest or Scandinavia, where snow becomes commonplace.  It's such a significant event for me every year.  The warmth and the friends and family are coming and.  It's just great.

If I might muse about my future for a bit.  I've been thinking about careers that I know about which I could possibly see myself being in.  I figure,  I love school so much ( I seriously, love being in a classroom and learning), and I'm so scared of leaving, why ever leave?   I mean.  I could teach right?  Why not.  English, history, government.  I think I'm capable of it for sure.  I think I'm capable of loving it actually.  who knows.  It'd only take an extra year to get the practical masters in education (although I'd probably want some more legit grad school before then) and then bam.  But I doubt the job market for educators is better than for anyone else.  Quite probably worse actually.  In fact, being a Mr. west or a Ms. Fisher is a dream job almost.  Who knows.  God.  So I'll ask him.

At our men's GC we talked a lot about sex...duh.  I and one other guy are the only ones not involved currently.  Which.  I dunno.  Which is cool.  Shiloh, the only married guy in the bunch, brought up in passing that women are our sisters' in Christ.  and You've got to treat them that way.  All of them.  Up until the minute you say I do to one of them.  (and then only that one of course...)  So .  That's a pretty good discourager. or mindset.  Or whatever you want to call it.  Would I look at my sister that way?  Goodness no.  We also discussed being bold in keeping each other accountable for sin.  Hypocrites, or immature, or whatever it is, If the truth is being spoken, it's got authority to rebuke the heck out of sin.  And it's necessary that it's done. 

I wish I didn't live in a day when sex was everywhere.  It just makes things so tough.  I can't even walk through campus or turn on the television without crap.  I mean.  I'm trying to cleanse myself of all the crap I've gotten complacent about in the last several years and.  Life here and now certainly doesn't make that easy.

CCF was cool today I suppose.  Laura did one of those paint Jesus upside down things during worship and Matt was up top leading for the first time.  He did well.  The sermon was on the holy spirit.  It was good I suppose.  I really prefer redeemer to ccf.  but I dunno.  Maybe I just haven't invested as much into ccf.  Then walking outside.  Bam.  snow. awesome.  I trekked home the 18ish minute walk to enjoy it.  I remember seeing the futile salt sprinkles on the brick just a couple hours earlier.  Ha.  I suspect an awesome snow battle will go down tomorrow.  I hope.

Working backwards,  I was on campus from 2-7 (CCF) studying.  It was the first time I'd gotten a considerable chunk of stuff like that done in awhile.  It felt good.  Had a lazy morning.  Matt did the dishes again I just found out.  Great...

Anyways.  There's snow outside.  and it's white and pure. and 4 inches at least.  Joy.
