so ya

I don't post on here anymore. How sad is that? y'all miss me don't you? yeah yeah, I don't want to hear it.

Well I'm getting close to going back to school soon. My last 8 months of school and then I'll be DONE 8-) wow. I'm not going to know what to do with myself. In the meantime I'm working away at Phil's Milwrighting doing some millwright stuff and building fences. Its a good job and I"m outside all the time so now I have very blond hair and a nice little tan. Hmm yeah, nothing else too exciting going on in my life. Greg on Corrie on the other hand have something very exciting. They just got ENGAGED!!!! Yeah I know I can hardly get my mind around it either. Congratulations guys, I"m so exited for you both.

Well there you go you know what's going on in my life, don't you just feel so special now?

Its me

Well I am alive and well just very busy with school and homework and all that stuff. It really is quite a challenge to keep finding reasons to put off the homework. Well not really, but I am taking a few minutes to post on here just so that y'all can keep up to date on Davie. Between classes and homework and volleyball and hockey I still manage to find some fun. I'm heading to Woodstock for the conference tomorrow and the trip down to SC is coming up soon. We are still trying to locate a full sized van for that so if you know of anyone that has one we can beg, borrow or steal. let me know. Other than that I have a bunch of midterms coming up next week and an assignment to finish up right now. *sigh* I better get at it. Have a good week!

I wanna post

I want to post something on here but I'm working way to much. I have to wake up at 5 am every day this week to get to work and then I don't leave until between 4:30 and 5 pm, which about gives me enough time to get home, eat supper, shower and go to bed. One of these days soon though I'll do an actual post. I promise. Oh yeah, Sheffield conference was a blast...check out Karissa's blog to see some pictures.

Off to bed

pictures and more

I went home (to my parents place that is) this weekend and while I was there I downloaded all the pictures off of Tim's camera and so I thought I would post a few of them for your viewing pleasure.

This is still from the thanksgiving day hike...nice scenery

Scott found the hike very peaceful

The rock climbing was tons of fun!

We're just a little...umm..Different. But we have lots of fun

Like I said...Different. You only wish you where as strong as Joel

The Three Westies:

This weekend was once again a blast but I got home at about 12am and then got up at 5:30 this morning for work and I have to get up at 4:30 tomorrow so I need to hit the hay folks. Have a great night and enjoy the pictures. Oh and by the way, I hate seagulls...one ate my sandwich today when I wasn't looking. Any good ideas for revenge?

Weekend

Ok, Well you people try and solve the conundrum that is Anonymous, (and no he is not me, just so you know) I'll go ahead and put up another post.

This weekend was blast. I played hockey Friday night and got a nice slash on one arm and a bruise on the other so you know it was a good game. Then on Saturday I went paintballing with a bunch of the Living Water youth. Good times and good bruises so once again lots of fun. Now I really want to get a paintball gun. If only I wasn't a poor student :( On Sunday I about ping-pong'd and airhockeyed myself out at the Wassinks place.

The evening sermon also bears mentioning. It was on Judges 16:22-31 which is the story of Samson after he has been captured and then destroys the Philistine temple of Dagon. The point that really struck me was that of the hopeful sign that we read of in Judges 16:22 where it says: 'but the hair of his head began to grow again after it had been shaved.' In spite of his sin and folly God forgave him and his hair started to come back, and so it is with us. Even at when we are at our lowest point and floundering in our sins, God has mercy on us and our hair begins to grow back so to speak and we have a glimmer of hope. We just need to cast ourselves on Him like Samson does later on in the chapter and just as God gave him the physical strength he needed so He will give us the spiritual strength we need.

So yeah, all in all an excellent weekend. Good fun, good fellowship, and good teaching.

P.S. Does anybody out there think the word verification sux? :-P

Traffic

So it took me 1 hour and 34 minutes to get home from work today. 1 hour and 34 minutes to travel 25 kms! That means an average speed of 15.96 km/h. Does anyone know where I can find a cheap used helicopter?
