So I'm posting from my iPod again, because I can't sleep. It's kinda sad when you know - or at least figure - that you won't be able to sleep before you even turn off the light...
So I'm supposed to get up in about 5 hours to work out a little before leaving really early in the morning with BA. He wants to get to collge station super early for some reason. Idk. Anyways, I'm going to the camp instead, to work on a cabin, and he's dropping me off.
I've been in a really blah mood lately. Not really happy. I've been happy about certain things, but it seems to me like I've been slightly depressed in general. I can't focus. I wish I had a better attention span.
Well, it turns out I'm actually pretty tired. I'm going to sleep, but I'll post again soon... Maybe...

Hurry up and save the world, cuz I'm really tired.
Have you ever noticed how many "New Post" buttons there are on this site? It's like they're begging you to write a new post or something. Well, I just couldn't resist...
School's over for the year. I've never been happier about school ending, or more excited for summer, in my life. It's so awesome. It's actually kinda hard to believe. I don't have to go back to A&M or the corps for three months. The most corps related thing I'll do is recruiting, and I'm not even sure I'm doing that. It's so awesome.
Speaking of corps, I'm a sophomore. This means I have a few more privileges, and I have to yell at and be mean to the fish. That's all. Oh, and my uniform looks a little different. Ok, I'm done talking about the corps for three months.
I went to Tanner Ferris' funeral service today. It was probably the happiest funeral I've been to. Thankfully, I haven't been to many. It wasn't happy, by any means, but I really think that we celebrated Tanner's life a lot, instead of just grieving his absence. His old lady went up and talked about him for a really long time, and he seemed so happy talking about him, in a sad way. That doesn't make sense, but I think you know what I mean. He was sad about Tanner's death, but his memories of him were all great, happy memories. That's how I want to be remembered. I don't want people to be able to talk about my life without laughing or smiling. Shawn's service is going to be next Monday. I think I'm going to that one as well. In case you hadn't heard, two guys, freshmen, from B Company (a band outfit), died in a car accident last Thursday, coming back to A&M from the band river trip. Tanner died at the scene, Shawn died in the hospital. They were two days away from final review. I didn't know either of them really well, but it's still hitting really close to home, because they were freshmen in the band, and I did know them and talk to them. I think I'm done talking about this.
I'm really excited about camp. I have a really full week ahead of me. Tomorrow, or today, whatever, I might be playing some music with Chris and his friend. I don't know, though, because I want to use my good amp, but Chris forgot to call my dad about picking it up, so I might not be able to get it. Saturday is a camp training day, Sunday is church, Monday I get to finally wrap up something I've been working with for months, Tuesday and Wednesday I'm getting cpr and first aid certified, Friday is something, I don't know, maybe a pool party with friends from high school, and then Saturday is Jacob's wedding. After that is when camp starts. That doesn't give me any time to fix my Scout or Mustang... Hmmm... This could be a problem. I'll talk to dad tomorrow. Sometime during all that, I need to get my ankle checked out. Remember how I sprained it back in March? Well it still irritates me when I don't have an Ace bandage on it. I don't think that's a good sign.
Ok, I'm just about done. I was just trying to kill time to wait for KLove's encouraging word to come in. They email it about 2:30 to 2:40 every morning, I think... and there it is in my inbox! 2:37. It's pretty good. It always is. I think you can look it up on their website. You should, cuz you can also sign up for it. It's free. All they do is send you an encouraging verse or two from the Bible every day. It's always encouraging, and it's always good, and sometimes God speaks to you through them. There aren't any ads or anything like that, I don't think, but then again, I haven't really payed any attention. Oh well.
Ok, so, since I'm busy this coming week, and then camp starts, I may not blog very much more for the next three months. Now, that's fine for me, because I'll be at camp, so I won't really need this outlet, but I don't know how yal will take it (all three of you!). Just sit tight, and I'll update when I can/think about it. In the meantime, get onto Hannah or Abby, because they never update their blogs.
Anyways, I think that's it. Goodnight!

Some Things You Should Know
1) I'm really tired, and I just finished a couple of hours of studying for my Physics final tomorrow, so I'm going to sleep.
2) The only thing I really wanted you to know was the first point, so I'm done with this post now.
3) Yes, I'm picking on you, Jaclyn :)

Pantoum
Lord I only seek Your grace
You're all I have, but all I need.
You found me and You filled the space
inside this crippled heart in me.
You're all I have, but all I need
I know somehow I'll endure this longer.
Inside this crippled heart in me,
there's Something deeper, wider, stronger.
I know somehow I'll endure this longer
the darkness has begun to clear
there's Something deeper, wider, stronger
it's You, the One who brought me here
The darkness has begun to clear
You found me and you filled the space
it's You, the One who brought me here
Lord I only seek Your grace.
You're all I have, but all I need.
You found me and You filled the space
inside this crippled heart in me.

I'm a flyin talkin donkey!
So I figured I'd do a blog post, since a lot has happened since my last one, whenever that was. One thing worth mentioning is the fact that, since I said that no one posts anything on their blogs anymore, both Jaclyn and Hannah updated their blogs. I'm proud of yal...
I like music. A lot. I like really chill music, especially. Like, acoustic guitar, and stuff like that. Piano, strings, light drumming. But that's just what I'm into right now. I'll probably like something else a year or two from now. And don't get me wrong, I like all kinds of music. I just prefer the chiller stuff right now. But tastes change. Kinda like with how you hate carrots as a kid, but then you like them later. I like spinach pizza, too.
March to the Brazos was Saturday. It's pretty much a bunch of fun and torture put together. If that doesn't make sense, just think about what it would be like to walk 9 miles with some really good friends, stop and get smoked to earn cool things, eat lunch, then walk the whole 9 miles back again. And it was really hot and sunny, too. But anyways, that's how I lost my toenail. It hurt a lot on the march, but it's fine now.
After we got back to the dorms from the march, we dropped with our sophomores, cuz they had junior rights. This means that we're friends with them now, and they can have fun with us whenever they want. They still smoke us, though. Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me, either.
If you've never had one of those molten cakes from Chili's, you need to get one ASAP. They're so good...
I went with Hannah and Jaclyn to see Shaun Groves this morning in Bryan. He's a pretty funny guy. He's also sort of an Aggie. I say "sort of" because he always wanted to go to A&M (and be in the Corps!), but they didn't have a good music program back then (still don't), so he went to Baylor instead. Anyways, he's a funny guy, and I really enjoyed listening to him sing and speak (not at the same time... that would be pretty cool, though...). I wanted to sponsor a little kid through the program he was telling us about, but I'm not sure if my family would be down for it. I'm definitely talking to them about it, though. We have plenty enough to give just a little bit for one kid, every month. It would be nice to know we're actually helping make a difference in a whole other part of the world.
Ok, well, it's late, and I don't really have anything important left to say. Only two more days! Two more training times! Even if they smoke us retarded (which is likely), they can only do it twice!! I'm so excited! Dead week is gonna be so much fun.
Goodnight!
