| Well, after ages of nothing, here is something. My Xanga is alive once again, brought back from the dead as a... zombie? Let's hope not, we all know how scary those can be. Unless you're colorblind, or maybe blind in general, you'll have noticed this page is no longer ugly and gray. I like to think of the old look as the "look of laziness" or perhaps the "look of procrastination" as the only reason it was up for so long, was the fact that I was too lazy to change it. In any case, I spent days(not really) of difficult(not really) labor on this new layout, so let me know what you think.
With that out of the way, lately I've been hating MySpace. No one uses the one called Xanga anymore, as a result, most of my good Xanga friends have become good MySpace friends, and I personally like Xanga better. So for that, I hate you MySpace, I will use you but secretly wish that you die in a horrible internet fire.
I don't really have any news to report. Christmas has come and gone, 2006 has come and gone. I'm really looking forward to 2007, isn't it great to know that every 365 days you have a new number, and a new beginning, with a new chance for things to be different from last year? I'm excited for the things that God will do in my life and this old world. Show up for us once again in 2007 God, let us see your grace, and love, and power, even though we are so undeserving. Give me the desire to reach the world with your love, may I not be ashamed to tell the world about the fire that's burning in my heart.

| I guess I've been kind of discouraged lately. The D.C. trip is behind me, but I can't help but think about it. I feel so selfish, I know I take everything for granted. It's hard to watch someone digging through a bag of second-hand clothing, looking for a coat to keep from freezing at night. It's hard to imagine what it must be like to be in their position. I feel disheartened by it all, no matter how much you do, no matter how many people you help, it feels like there are always more to take their place. What can I do Lord? I don't want to live for myself and then fade away, I want to take Your light and reflect it on those who have none.
Nothing too amazing with this update, just me rambling to myself, I'll leave some comments next time I have some time on Xanga. I think I'll finish with a couple of my pictures again.

| So, God treated me to an amazing sunset tonight, since I'm too tired/lazy to do a full update, I thought I'd put a couple pictures up.
"Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations. I will be exalted in the earth."
Psalm 46:10

| So, it's been awhile since I've been here once again. I guess the last time I updated was before the leadership retreat hah. Nothing really new to report, I got a myspace http://www.myspace.com/encalion, though I don't know why exactly(maybe Teddi's nagging, haha just kidding  ) It all seems kind of pointless, but if you have a myspace, give me a link or something. As of now Myspace is telling me I only have one friend, and it's making me feel kind of lonely.

| Edit: New picture, courtesy of Crystal. I might change it later, I'm undecided. Also, update coming soon.. I'm too lazy right now.
Haha, so I've been neglecting xanga again. Everyone should be used to it by now, move along, nothing new to see here.. hah. I never really know what to write, it's frustrating.
The Stand is coming up soon, I guess everyone is pumped for that, I wish I could say the same. I'm feeling pretty sick and there's only a couple days left... it isn't going to be fun singing with a head cold. Anyways, I'm still praying that it would be a good time for everyone that attends, no matter what condition I'm in by then. Hopefully I don't break any guitar strings either.. haha, I feel plagued by that lately.
Well, as I really don't feel like writing much more and Steve, Noah and I went on a nature walk today, I think I'll take the easy way out and post some pictures. I've been reading a lot about photography lately, I'm hoping it shows in my pictures. I'll be putting others up on Webshots later, I'll update with a link when I do.
Deadly fungus, or something delicious to make dinner with? Sample and find out.
Remember to keep the poison control number nearby.
What's this you ask? Only the sweetest rock ever, either that, or
some rock creature half buried in the ground. What do I mean?
Tilt your head to the right and use your imagination, c'mon..
you can do it.
Steve Edmonds; Friend, Role Model, Hero. (Yeah, right.)
Artistic, right?
Group photo to end the "adventure" hah.
Well, I grow tired of putting lame captions to these photos, I'm sure I will see you soon, and yes, by you I mean YOU. Until then, stay out of trouble... Christmas is coming soon, you don't want coal in your stocking, do you?
