I want your ugly I want your eveyrthing as long as it's free

Man I love Lady GaGa....fact. I had such an amazing day with Abbie! I missed her a lot, lots of fun! Ok I don't really have much else to write. I still need to finish 2 xmas gifts....ha

You know what annoys me? When people say oh let's keep Christ in Christmas!! Seriously? If you go to the orgins of Christmas it was an not holy holiday...where do they think the tree, gifts (Jesus didn't get gifts cos it was his birthday, he got them because he was a KING), singing carols, exchanging cards, and even kissing under the mistletoe, like seriously these are things stolen by the church. I don't understand why people run their mouths without taking like 15 minutes to look up facts.

Yes Christmas is when we remember Jesus' birthday, but we really can't claim it and then to say put Jesus BACK in! ha, he was the spice you add once your taste your food and see that it's gross. Just saying, it annoys me.... It's usually the people who need to remember Christ all the time cos they sure don't act like him ever.

So I'm not being a Grinch, I just hate that as followers of Christ we assume we OWN Christmas! The horrible attitude that freaks out every time someone says "Happy Holidays" or "Seasons Greetings." Just because the holiday is named after Christ, doesn't make it only ours.

We have really borrowed this season with many of its traditions, for the reason to honor the birth of Jesus. ok I'm going to stop my random rant....Christmas is a beautiful time and even if a lot of the tradition was stolen from pagan belief, I'm sure God's cool with that, cos Christmas is all about redemption...

So what I'm just trying to say is that the trees, mistletoe, gifts, and the date aren't the deepest and richest aspects of the celebration of Christmas, or the central symbols of it. And people shouldn't get their panties in a bunch so much and should enjoy family and what as Christmas we remember during this time.

One last thing..."Xmas", X is ancient Greek for Christ! (I mean I learned this my freshman year of college) Come on people all you would have to do google the meaning of Xmas....


Ok I do love Christmas for real I do!! Just sometimes the people annoy me to death!!!

Christmas


Well I'm home for Christmas. It was a really stressful trip home. Stopped at a friends house for some quick conversation, which was a nice blessing. Then to Elma's and then home. Bonding with my brothers and I admit a little homesick for Virginia. I think it's more the lack of drama in Virginia and the peacefulness I just feel there. Weird I know...just saying there's always something negative going on here in PA, something to get riled up about and people who make me hate the human race and wish Adam and Eve were zebras....

Then Saturday morning went to Williamsburg and then Busch Gardens at night, for fun fun fun fun!!!!! Sunday during Sunday School the fire alarm went off. So Karen and I escorted 10 kids outside in the pouring and freezing rain with no coats!!! We all huddled together for warmth, it was cute, haha.

December 6, 2009


So I was really super sick this week and it really sucked. I hate how am I when I'm sick, I give up, get dramatic, and want to die. Just do maybe it's a good thing those traits only come up when I'm sick, for the most part. Since I've just been laying in bed not much else has been going on. Missed hanging out with some people but I proudly chose my health over fun, which I never do. ever. Today has been good so far, Sunday school, then they had a thank you brunch for us, which I didn't really eat much cos the only meat there I liked was shrimp. But the shrimp was so over spiced I kept gagging a little. That's okay though I already planned to make some rice and asparagus for lunch. I'm going to see the Christmas celebration at church at the 3, and since each one has had about 1,000+ people I'm going to try to go early. Then tonight I probaly won't do much at all, but who knows. Maybe dinner after the play with the ladies. I'm kinda bummed since I'm going home so early for Christmas I'm missing two Christmas parties, oh well guess that's life. So, honestly really nothing else, except I might be a tad addicted to FarmVille.....I swore I would never play but it was so boring lying in bed all week I had to do something. Ok, off to start lunch and put the dishes away! Oh I love this quote!

"It takes quite a spine to turn the other cheek. It takes phenomenal fortitude to love your enemy. It takes firm resolve to pray for those who persecute you." -Rob Bell-
