Hi There,
Some of ya might know that I'm a Christian (of the Catholic denomination) and because of that starting today is the season of Lent.
Basically back when Jesus was here, He went into the wilderness for 40 days and nights without food or water. While there the devil (being a jerk that he is) tried to tempt Jesus during that time.
Now as for what us Catholics do is sacrifice something that we really like during the next 40 days.
Like for example: Sweets,TV, and other stuff.
Well for what I'm fasting (sacrificing) this Lent is using my XBox.
I gotta admit, the idea of doing it at first was kinda depressing because it's something I like to do to unwind and most of my friends are on there so I'm gonna miss playing with them.
But that is the whole point of Lent though.
Because I gotta show God that I love Him more then playing on my XBox.
Also I guess it'll be a test of will power.
I'm gonna try my best with God's help.
So is there anyone else out there that might be fasting from something too?
Well even of you are or not, I'd to hear your thoughts too. ^_^

I'm Going Back to Church
The renovation of the church is finally finished and after a year or two we're out of the gym.
It's very nice looking and there is a little more room to sit (though we had to stand) but the basic layout of the church is basically the same as before except the took out some wall and expanded it.
They also took out all the carpet and replaced it with tile.
All and all it's good to finally be back in church instead of a gym.
Now if only they could figure out how to solve the parking lot problem.
Above is a picture of the alter I took with my cell.
See ya Later!

Two Days Ago...
...I turned 18! Yay!
It was a good Birthday.
I went to Church in the Movie Theater. Then after eating in the mall food court and what not, we all (or at least some of us, since most went to see Batman: The Dark Knight) went to see Wall-E. I wanted to see this movie for a while since it looked (dare I say it)...Cute. ^^'
It was cute,funny,romantic,entertaining,and a very well done movie. Unlike most movies as of late where it's either targeting and adult audience or a younger audience,while this one can be viewed by any age and still be enjoyed for it's interesting,enteraining,comedic,and romantic story line.
Also, seeing how the humans looked after 700+ years of doing nothing and having technology do everything for them, was an interesting (and somewhat funny) part of the story.
Watching Wall-E and Eve's relationship grow was fun to watch. They're so cute together! ^_^
And there was action too.
I highly recommend seeing this fun family friendly movie.
What do you think of Wall-E?
Love it? Hate it?
Post your thoughts and reviews.
Thanks!
