Thursday (Christmas): wonderful christmas got some good stuuf but thats not what its about. Jesus loves you and came to die for your sins and mine. if you wanna know more talk to me or someone.


Friday: went bowling with mike clemson and austin volla that was pretty good time. then we went to M&H for some chili dogs. yummy. came to my house for a while, went to school of rock at the ubck fifty. i have a major complaint about that movie when it is the end and every one is soloing there is on bass solo! i am gonna write and complain about that you all should too. came back to my house i tought mike how to play "smoke on the water" on bass. he called ruby after he found out that she and michael were going out and she didn't tell him... then we ended up going to rubys and watched "how to deal" that guy... macon or whatever i don't like him or his "jedi mind trick" thing.. if i were her i would have hit him  oh well... then  i broke their hydabed cause i am fat... first i fell throught a floor now i broke a hydabed...oh well


Saturday: went to marguerite and found the stand i want for my bass but it is fifty dollars and i don't think i want to spend that. i think i am goning to try make one. went to walmart i didn't find what i was looking for but i forgot what i was looking for by now anyways. it was my parents anniversary.


Sunday: church. rich fredine did the message... for those of you who don't go to my church or know rich he sounds exactly like sean connery. its weird when sunday during the service you close youreyes and james bond is preaching.... oh well. after church i went to bekah's and we ate pizza and watched pirates. the best part was when we were talking and somehow got on the subject of my birthday and how it was on wednesday and ellie says "thats new years eve, is your birthday on new years eve every year?" then i came home for i was having a RISK party at my house at 6. carly called and said " i was gonna have a game party and play settlers but i don't know how to play. can we just combine our partys?and you could teach us how to play?" after much descussion with the guys at my house we said yes" so they came over. and so 6 guys playing risk (counting me) and 4 girls learning how to play settlers (being taught by me) that took about an hour and a half to explain since it is a little complicated and since one would get up to get something and be gone for two minutes and then come back and i would just start and another would need something else and be gone for 2 minutes and so on an so on. yeah but over all a great time then just a great time of fun had by all even after the games were done. after the girls left all the guys stayed and prayed. it was pure prayer from like 12:46 untill about 1:30 it was great. if you could pray for us guys too i won't mention specifics but we all have things we need prayer for. little or big. if you got anything you would like me to pray for you about i would be glad to do it. i am in  the middle of writing a song to jesus so i am gonna go do that i just felt the need to write all this. i feel like i am forgetting something but i am gonna leave it if i remember i weill put it later


Trivia: it was the patomic or how ever you spell it river

hello again


Saturday: my dad went to get tickets for the 12ish show of Return of the King, but they were out so he got us ones for the 2ish show. so what did we do for 2 hours. went to Rae Bon (where my mom works) and played with embrodery machines. and it turns out that one of her coworkersis getting one but will be gone when it is delivered so we get it for a week, heres the best part, it costs like 4 grand. then we went to ROTK its was wonderful. then i went to the mall for a little bit. saw bill at oj and i got a banana for 50 cents.


Sunday: church then snow football with ryan kahly and the todts. then it appeared that my car was leeking transmission fluid. so i got a ride from them to the todts for hot chocolate and some catch phrase. then ben ryan and i went and got my car and drove it to my house (we know now it was not leeking. the fluid must have been there from some other car) then we went puppet shopping while wearing our puppets (lambchops, tiger, and roudolph) we went ery where and couldn't find any good puppets, anyone have a good place to get puppets. well while we were at the mall we were looking at the clearance in JCPenny and saw a purple shirt marked down from like 40 to 7something and me and ben said ryan you are the only person we know who could pull that shirt off. and he said "yeah... but it has white buttons" so i said if he bought the shirt i would but buttons on it for him. so he bought it. While we were at the mall we played the how many people do you know game. ben had 6 ryan had 5 and i got 15.i win. while we were driving out of the mall ryan called his friend alicia and she asked us to come over to her appartment so we did. her and her room mate were there we talked for a while, learned they had two "pet" rabbits. they actually are wild but the walk by their porch and get some food from alicia and shanda so they call them pets. they put out some coulifour for them to eat. (old smelly couliflour) then while we were ben was talking about how he goes to bethel in the cites and alicia say hey "wait a sec"walks into her room and walks out with a bethel shirt on a hanger. and says "this bethel?" and she ends up giving the shirt to ben an someone left it in hre car or something and she really needed that hanger she said. after we left there we went and rented holes and came to my house and played risk and watched holes that started at about 12 and then we wrote thank you notes to alicia and shanda at about 2 they are they funniest things you will ever read ( if you read them)

Monday: well i told you a litte of monday already (up till 2)  i wrapped all my christmas presents. every year i go buy my own rapping paper so all my presents look the same and not like anyone elses. this year it was from walgreens a red background and penguins.


Tuesday: nothing much untill after supper then ryan and zach kahly and ben came by and said we are kidnapping you so i walked into the dinind room and said "they are kidnapping me bye" and my dad says "ok but you have to do the dishes first" and think"what thats not how its sposed to go i am sposed to leave right now" oh well i did the dishes quick. first we went to bens house to get the thank you notes we wrote monday morning. then we went to walmart and bout six hangers crome they are pretty. and then to ghettomart and bought some fresh couliflour. and came to my house to wrap them with my paper. brought them to alicias and set them on the porch where they set the couliflour on sunday went to go see a movie. got on interstate and said shoot we forgot the letters. went back put the ben put the letters on. we went to see radio. while we were there ben realized he put the letters on top with nothing to keep them from blowing away. so after the movie we went back and checked they were not missing so we rearanged everything and left. that was all for last night.


wednesday: nothing yet just wkaing up and writing this. christmas eve service tonight but who know what i will do before that.


so the answer to the triva question (and a new one) was 146 it came about from knowledge bowl when the question said somehting about 46 people dying and another team buzzed in and i thought that was the amount at the TSWF but we waited for more info and it turned out it was some bridge the broke and they fell in to the_____________ river. we ended up getting it can you?

So I am going to update you all again. Here goes


 


Wednesday: school then church.  church was good. Only me and Dave were in lugg though oh well


 


Thursday: school, practice for Christmas musical at church


 


Friday: school then practice again. I went to river after that. I missed the whole talk but I got it on tape because they record it for KFNW and I bring them the tape. Saw a bunch of people. On the way home Ellie followed me to her house.


 


Saturday: found the rules for the game NASH on the internet. John Nash from a beautiful mind invented NASH. It is not the one in the movie… it is in a deleted scene. I made a six by six board. Musical at church had to be there at 5:30. I made a six by six board. I came home from the musical. Thought a six by six board was too easy/quick so I made a 12x12 board. Its now more fun.


 


Sunday: musical for both services. I did that. Stayed and got the youth room ready for the Christmas party on Wednesday, which included but was not limited to making cookies and snowflakes.


 


Monday: school nothing


 


Tuesday: two hours late school nothing


 


Wednesday: school church, went to church at 3:45 because I had to set up the lights since they took them out to use them for the Christmas musical. While I was setting them up, I ripped my pants right in the …umm… there. And I didn’t have time to go home and change so I had to were them and hope no one (well no girls) noticed. Afterwards I played Royce in a few games of fooseball. I gave ruby and Nathan a ride home.


 


Thursday: school. Since I had been playing a lot of NASH at lunch and before classes I had gotten pretty good on the 12x12 board and made it so I could win in only 4 turns so I made a 24 by 24 board in drafting. I came home. My dad brought home a poster 2’ by 3’ poster cover with a Plexiglas front so I put it in that. Now you can write on that with dry erase markers.


 


Friday: knowledge bowl meet at Concordia. I brought NASH to play. My team (Moorhead 2) got 7th on the written and then moved up to 3rd then up to 2nd .then down to ninth but fro that we got back up to third over all . Park Christian got first. Moorhead 1 got second we got third Moorhead 4 got 4th and Moorhead 3 got 28th. We did pretty well except for Moorhead 3. Props go to PC for winning. Came back to school for seventh hour. Instead of the lyceum, I played trivial pursuit with Mr. C’s class. That is all so far today. It is Christmas break now. I have nothing to do on Monday or Tuesday. I need something to do. If you have something to do tell me and I can do it too or something.


 


Trivia question of the day: how many people died in the triangle shirt waist fire?


First one to answer right gets points.


 


I wrote this entry in word so that is why it is all, spelled correct and stuff. So you know.
