Walla Walla University singing praises with Gungor.

There is somebody dancing like crazy in a window they think nobody can see them through and I am too far away to get out on film and I am upset.

So Gungor came to campus and I set up the stage and stuff for hours/days and it was great and then took it all down and now I am tired but there was Gungor and pizza and it was all free and delicious. I may not have been backstage or on-stage while they were playing, but it still may have been the best concert I’ve been to.

I miss astronomy. A group of my newer friends went stargazing… and it really was not for the stargazing. It was somewhat disappointing. And the fairly nice telescope here is broken, probably permanently. But I hear news of a group being formed that might let me get my fill. Solar Max is not seeming to get here, but there are a couple comets this year that might end up making me not feel so bitter about the weeks of solid cloud that made me miss comet McNaught. 

So people are interesting. I have talked to people about various problems they are going through, and I like to think that I occasionally give out some helpful advice. The most recent was a girl dealing with various problems, but it was different than most of my other recent conversations. I personally believe that things like relationships should be God-centered, but while some of the people I talk with are Christian, I can tell that they look to other places for relationship inspiration. Which is natural, but the ones that have the most/long-lasting problems are the ones that never actively talk about God’s will in their relationships. We started talking, this girl being someone I had gone to school with many years ago and never had much conversation with since, and the conversation became serious about some problems she was having. And she brought up God’s will. And that was it. It was a short conversation.. It was not a long struggle about what she should do. It was refreshing to see someone not saying “But I love him,” and knowing what they needed to focus on. Focusing on God’s will doesn’t really make ending a relationship easy, but it takes away the struggle-aspect. It was a good reminder of what I know is the most important base for any relationship. Every other one I’ve had the chance of looking into personally has left people miserable, and it’s obvious why to me. And I could definitely do more in my own relationships. BUT GOOD NEWS: The internet works again in the dorm. The showers on my hall (the top one) apparently leaked down 4 floors and flooded the switches for the North side of the dorm. I’ve never been so bored in my own room before. But I survived.

So over the next few months, a very large majority of my friends are leaving to spend the next two years in other countries. The first leaving today. And I’m stuck here. Yay.

So I was out tonight for over 10 hours, about 8 of which were walking. I’ve never been so cold or so in pain. It was quite unexpected, which is saying a lot because I really was expecting it. I had no water the entire time out, and I didn’t have any food for about 15 hours (meaning 5 hours before leaving. MATH!). It was something that I will definitely write about later, but for now FOOD.

I apparently now make random tumblr pages based loosely on various conversations.

The point of this is that I’m going to try to say things on here that I would not normally say in everyday life in hopes that someone finds something that they want to discuss with me.
