Hello all!

As you can see, I've finally gotten around to joining the blog! My name here is officially Unnatural Child #1, so please call me by that, or some other unrecognizable name that no one outside of Boof's lair would get (feel free to abbreviate). Just in case you don't know who I am, here's your hint: My part in the middle school play last year involved being married to a seventh grader. That should be obvious enough. If you still don't know who I am, I probably don't want you to know my identity. That's all for now!

So Much FUN!!!

This week has been so much fun. And it's only Tuesday!
It's the week of Vacation Bible School at my church, and I'm acting in opening assembly skits (and today I acted in the Esther Bible story skit) and then helping run games all day. My friend Evan Hegel is like always with me (merely because we have similar jobs) and if we're not hanging with his two brothers inside, we hanging with David Gaskins outside. I'm having the best time!
I really have nothing substantial to say, except that I wish you could all be having this much fun with me!!! I love you guys!!!

Disgusting

So I was biking around yesterday and I see this house for sale. It looks pretty big, and it's in a kind of hoity toity neighborhood I know of. Just for kicks, I pulled the flyer. It has six bedrooms, a sleeping porch, and seven bathrooms. FULL bathrooms. It's over 7 thousand square feet. You wanna know what it costs? 2.25 MILLION dollars. 2.25!!!! Kelsey just came back from a mission trip in which nine people lived in the same one room 11 x 11 foot house, with two twin beds. I'm so grateful to live in America and not have to deal with real poverty, but that sickens me. It's gross! Think of what that money could be put to!!! In America, we don't have to face the harsh realities that some third-world countries do, but that doesn't mean we should ignore their pain and live lavish lifestyles such as THIS.

Musicals I Want To See Right Now

I really want to see all these musicals right now.

-Bye Bye Birdie
-My Fair Lady
-A Chorus Line (a bunch of my friends are in that!)
-Wicked

It might qualify as a musical, but I really want to see Bedknobs and Broomsticks again. That's like the best movie!!! Hopefully I'll see it Saturday though. Have any of you seen it? AAAAH it's sooo goood!!! That is seriously one of my favorite movies of all time. And it's so much fun to sing to! When we were younger, Sam and Tracy and I would watch that movie, and pause it and then try to draw whatever was on the screen right then. It was really funny!

I wonder how Moriah is doing in Japan. I'll bet she is having lots of fun!

Last night I had lots of fun. I went to youth group, and Matt drove both ways. It was really fun! At youth group we played Nuc'Em and volleyball and ultimate frisbee for a really long time, and we wrote stories with Apples to Apples cards, and we talked, and then to and fro with Matt we sang to the Wicked soundtrack the entire time and it was really fun!!!

Ah...I have a bug bite on the top of my head, and it hurts.

So at P2P, whenever there's a theater production they make T-shirts to advertise, and there's always a quote on the back. Had we made T-shirts for Cagebirds, want to know what the back would read?
"I hope no one roasts BABIES!"
hahahahaha...well you kind of have to hear it in context. But ask Ginger. She'll get it. :)

*moan*

Meh. Not feeling too spiffy tonight. The theatre company I work with took our competition piece up to Idaho Springs this weekend, to see how we would score. We did pretty well...you can ask Ginger, she saw it on Wednesday. It's an interesting show, as I'm sure she will agree. Unfortunately, the judges (rather, adjudicators...I suppose I'll use the formal term) didn't seem to share my viewpoint, and they disagreed with my opinions in several instances. The "adjudications" are open for general attendance. My two least favorite shows, they seemed to have only compliments for, and the ones I liked more, they just tore apart. It was wierd. The awards were screwy too. They have the "best" awards, and then an "all-state" award, which is pretty much like second place. One show got, essentially, first AND second place for the SAME thing!!! This happened TWICE. The show received these honors for costuming. It was a show taking place at the beach. They wore bathing suits. Oh how ingenius! I suppose it was an award for bravery-that they would go onstage in a bathing suit. But still...It was wierd. Oh well. I had fun.

To question McKenzie

According to Hannah, in Heaven, what you did on earth sorta ceases to exist. Like the marriages don't matter anymore, and all that matters is God. Is that what you think too?

In Answer To Olive

Well, Olive, in heaven, age is nonexistent, so the Bible says. You are given a new body and the imperfections of this world are left here. I'm not totally sure and positive about all of this (I doubt the answer to this particular question is there, but a good one for heaven-questions is Revelation), but I think that what happens is that (even though this sounds totally bogus) our souls leave our bodies and go up to heaven, so we don't need to be in a body that will get injured and dirty...even though that stuff wouldn't happen up there.

Next subject:Tonight!
Well it's Wednesday, and if any of you'd like to come to the Louisville Center for the Arts, CenterStage (the community theater company I work with) is putting on a special preview of a competition piece they're taking to Idaho Springs this weekend! It starts at 7:30, the doors open at 7, and it's called Cagebirds, a piece of dramatic absurd theater by David Campton. This play is recommended for audiences ages 12 and older. Hope to see some of you there!

For you Christians out there

So guys, I have one more question. How old are you when you go to heaven? Are the age at which you died? so does that mean that if there was a couple, and the wife died young and the husband died old, in heaven the husband would still be old?

Too Much Faith?

In this world, we, as a whole, put too much faith in others. Mainly those we are "madly in love with", to be exact.
They will never let us down. They are perfect, so they can never leave us. I can trust them with my heart, because they won't break it. They can't. I love them. The only reason I love them is because they are worthy, and since they are worthy they won't ever hurt me. They can't.
Or so we think. We blindly paint ourselves into a corner. And then at last, the illusion is stripped away. We realize that we are stuck, and there is no one left to lift us out of the pit we have dug for ourselves. No one but our poor broken heart, and that will need time to mend. Who knows if it ever will...at this point it hurts so bad we fear we will never trust again. We gave them our trust, and they blew it. We are alone, in a pit, never to the light of hope again.
"Love" is a roller coaster. But not a fun one. "Love" is a roller coaster that will look so enticing when others ride it and laugh. They have been on it before. They are experienced. The first time they didn't like it either, but they came back. Now they ride with ease. They make it look easy. So we decide to try it. We are tossed and turned, ripped violently from out safety zones, hurtled through the open air, a mere strap of burlap holding us in. We stagger off, memory erased, stomach still reeling...
We come back to the amusement park of life later...We see a big roller coaster, think it looks fun. Have we been on it before? It seems like it...but we just...can't...remember. We might have...but...
So we go on it. The stupidest decision of the day. Hopefully we'll forget it soon.
But is forgetting the pain the answer? Pain exists for a reason. Pain is a warning signal, an instinctive reaction, keeping us from getting injured.
I'll leave you to ponder these things. Let me know what you think please!

Ta-Da!!!

Well, we did it! The play went off without a hitch, and no Ginger, Peter did not reflect on you, and he did good (for him) anyways! It was amazing!!! ...and I got roses!!!... But it's not like that's the important part. Hmph. Today I also graduated from 8th grade! Huzzah!!! Yes, now I am officially in the limbo of 8th and 9th grade. I won't consider myself a freshman until the day it starts. For now, I'm a not-so-lazy teenager enjoying summer! Tomorrow, I get to start that off with one final show and a day-long trip to Elitches. Hip Hip Hooray! Well, I best be getting off to bed now. I need my rest before tomorrow's fun is to commence. Luv y'all!!!

Hey Y'all!

Well if you pay attention to this blog at all, hopefully you've seen that I comment a fair amount, and now we've eliminated the middle man, and I'm working with Moriah on the blog itself! Haha, the quote on the bottom is totally hilarious. *Bite!*
That's all for now, folks!
