Ezekiel 36:26

Recently, I've discovered something very interesting about myself.

You've all heard the quote that the definition of insanity is repeating something over and over again expecting different results.

If this is true, then I'm probably the most insane person you will ever meet.

Lately I've realized that a majority of things in my life that I have come to love, I really did not enjoy at first. There's a lot of things that I've given second chances to, I feel like.

Here are a list of things that I used to hate, but now love dearly:

Every Paramore song that I've come to love
Leeland
The Last Five Years: I'm kind of crazy for not seeing the genius of this musical right away.
Doodle Jumper app on iTouch: After I bought this app, I could not believe I bought it because I thought it was ridiculously lame. Now I probably can't go a half an hour with playing. Exaggeration of course. Maybe.
Newspaper class
Maddie Campbell (JUST KIDDING.)
Glee. Confession time: I was really not impressed with the first episode. Until I watched it again. Of course it's my favorite tv show now.


That's just a short list.

I'm not really sure what always bring me things back to things that I'm not impressed with. And I'm not really sure what makes me do a 180 and start to love them. A lot of times I think ignorance clouds our vision. I think that people often overlook things that could change the world. I also believe that people bring attention to things that are not newsworthy but hypes them up in ways that make things a bigger deal than they really are.

And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and be careful to obey my rules


I believe this verse applies to what I'm talking about because God promises us that He will change us to Love and be Loved, rather than closing ourselves off to things that could give us joy. 


I think that part of being a Christian means opening your eyes to see things the way the really are. Jesus did it countless times on His time here on earth. He intends for us to follow Him likewise, and that means cutting our way through a lot of phony things. How lucky we are to have a God that wants us to be real.

DAY 6 IN THE DOME

Ok, so I understand that it's been over a week before we've had a snow day. But it's still day 6. Don't argue.

Tomorrow is officially Day 7 and the possibility for a Day 8 and 9 are quite strong.

Cabin Fever major.

My family ate dinner at 3:30 out of sheer boredom.

My mom watched Lord of the Rings for the first time ever, I read a book, took an early shower ( I fear for how long we will have access to hot water) went on a iTunes binge (mostly an embarrassing amount of show tunes) and now I'm facebook chatting my girl Campbell. 

So bored.

I'm really sad that rehearsal is cancelled. Of course it's cancelled. Everything's cancelled. But I'm still sad. I want to rehearse for a show right now so bad. I want to be with people so bad. Curse you, snow.

I feel like I'm living in Narnia. Always winter, but never Christmas.

I already cracked this joke, but it's true.
