Thoughts of a Growing Christian | |||
Friday, October 17, 2003 Whoa... So it's been quite awhile since I've watched baseball. The last time I watched it regularly was during the world series where the Yankees played the Braves. Tonight I watched the game with Lizzie the baseball guru and it was so intense. She was cheering for the Red Sox (she thinks the Yankees are obnoxious...teeheehee) and I was cheering for the yankees just to make things exciting. Yeah...it got too exciting. At the end of the 9th I said "Ohh there it is...end of the 9th we're going to the 10th!" Lizzie says "Yeah I don't think my heart can handle it." This was said as she tilts her head back and clutches her hand over her heart. Sheesh we're getting old...Lizzie's heart is racing...I pull my back as I pretend I'm one of the pitchers. Oiy. Aren't we dorks? We definately confirmed that after Lizzie said she was too tired to stay up anymore and decided to go to bed. I had my blanket, cushions and my pillow on the couch and I stayed up past the 10th but as soon as the 11th started I was out. By the time I woke up...Yankees won. Heehee sorry Lizzie....but hey we'll get to see Mike! And Derek! And who's your boyfriend? Soriano? There's an upside ^_^. posted by Sewa at 12:49:00 AM # Thursday, October 16, 2003 Today I was looking down my buddy's list and I realized yes I don't talk to more than half of the 177 that I have on my list but I do like to have them all there simply to remind me of certain people and remember some of the people that I've met. So tonight as I was looking down the list I came across a grade school friend and I just decided to IM her. I was hit with a wave of nostalgia. All the notes passed, the gossip and the popularity groups, the nuns, the uniforms, the playground, the lunchmoms, the crushes. All so juvenille but all of it down to the last hot lunch makes me smile inside and out. So maybe some highschool classmates haven't changed that much but gradeschool ones certainly have. One has gotten married and has a baby. Another has moved to North Carolina with a boyfriend. And this friend in particular (who happens to be one of the most passionate dancers I know) has been in kentucky dancing for a ballet company for two years and is home only to have knee surgery. I asked her about some of the people and she seems to have seen just about everyone at one point or another. But I haven't seen more than 2 and that's only because they go to school at MSU as well. I guess it's partially my fault for not trying harder...or maybe I didn't want to. Some things of the past were so embarassing. The first dance I had with a boy where we stood literally at arms length apart and he knew I had a crush on him. Then my first and only skating party ever where he was nice enough to take my hand and skate with me around the rink but I was so consumed that I tripped and fell over a kid. HOW did I miss a big KID???? I was so embarassed...I guess I had a really big crush or something. *sigh* I should take trips down memory lane more often... posted by Sewa at 2:13:00 AM # Tuesday, October 14, 2003 Happy Birthday Chris! Thanks girls. *wink* I got my turn outta the way...let's hope we all don't take any turns for awhile. Not that it's not allowed...but yeah you know what I mean. Oh dear...now what to do about that paper...ick. posted by Sewa at 3:08:00 AM # Monday, October 13, 2003 Happy Birthday Henry! Random Things... I love candle parties. They're so nice. (Lizzie can you hear me saying that?) Whether it be just winding down and chillin' with some tea or someone needs to talk in a cozy comfy atmosphere it's great for all occassions! Everyone should try it...even guys. ^_^ I like white chocolate macadamia nut cookies now...esp the ones Cassie made...funny we've all never really eaten them before. Sheesh I'm in my third year of college and it's already October. The attack of the Japanese Ladybeetle...gross. But it's so odd how this time of year always brings back memories. And year after year there's big memories made at the same time. (Sweetest Day 2001 Girls...forever!) Human touch is so therapeutic. One of the greatest things ever. I remember when my mom used to have my head rest in her lap as I fell asleep in the car and she would just stroke my hair or my face. It so easily reassures a person or offers comfort and security. Or hugs or holding hands. I dunno, I could tell you about the hugs part...they're fabulous! Or a back massage. The best treat on the face of the earth. Or when people write on your back with their fingers or something of the sort. Feels good ya know. (Not at all meant to sound kinky) Hmm...umm yeah....I dunno how to word this anymore so I'm gonna ....stop....here.... posted by Sewa at 2:50:00 AM # |
