FRENCH BAGETTES

Bowling tonight = SOOO MUCH FUN haha!!

And Panera was thee best Homecoming dinner you can imagine... because Ty's ten tater tots told tall tales to... something about tasting trumpets. and Emily finally got her mango slushie. And we're not even going to mention those French bagettes and getting the butter... oooh no :]

Then bowling itself was pretty great because Kristen learned how to do a pas de chat (pa-duh-shaa) and beat Bobby (which made her pretty psyched I must say) and Mrs. Kozy had like 234790098 strikes in a row... only half kidding hah :]. And me and Christine basically knew every word to "Where Is The Love" and were ROCKING OUT oooh man and Emily couldn't get her thumb paralell to the arrows. So yes for the most part it was amazing.

Except although the disco lights were amazing did the speakers really have to bust out "My Humps" and kill this brilliant night? Because it was like culture shock going from jazzy Panera with a huge crowd of Christians and to a smoky (NEVER EVER EVER SMOKE ONE OF THOSE CANCER STICKS PLEASE, I'll... well I'll be reallyreallyreally upset with you k?), censored-rapping (although I admit some of it was pretty catchy and a blast from like fifth grade) bowling alley? And I actually think the huge group of Christians made it harder because we were all so sensitive to it. I really felt bad for Kristen and Bobby and Andy because that's just not what you guys do... like, most of us hear it every day (and that doesn't make it any better but at least we're expecting it) and I know I've learned to tune it out, but... well, that's me. And it was a tonnn harder to just dance and forget it like usual when everyone looked kind of shocked.

So that wasn't the coolest thing but I'm sure it was nothing like the dance itself, so it was still most definetly coooool. And I'm really glad that's how I got to spend my freshman homecoming!! many many many heartss to Emily, Tyleasha, Kristen, Christine, Dan, Bobby, Andy, Michael, Mrs. K and Mrs. E for creating the real "Stairway to the Stars" for about fifteen dollars each :]

Grammar lessons from C.S. Lewis

"WE WANTED TO BE NOUNS, BUT WE ARE, AND ETERNALLY MUST BE, MERE ADJECTIVES."

what do adjectives do? describe nouns placed near to them in a sentence.

what to they tell? characteristics of the noun.

what do Chrisitans do? describe God with their actions, words and lives.

what do Christians tell? characteristics of God.

do adjectives lie? no. you can't say "the purple banana," it doesn't make sense.

that's called a misplaced modifier, just for the record.

do Christians's lives lie about God?

well, is God selfish, hateful, excluding, jealous, ignorant?

"Christian" literally means "little Christ."

does "hateful little Christ" make sense?

no. that's a misplaced action.


so guess what, Christians?

be an adjective, not a modifier.

describe God. don't try to change Him.
