Everything: Going ons and on goings.

So the last two days have been really cool, actually. I made a super organized and awesome to do list/calendar on Microsoft Outlook. Jon told me to do this a while ago, and I just never got around to doing it (ironic). But we hung out on Friday and we were talking, and he said a lot of things that really gave me the motivation to get moving. I'm not going to lie, it really helps me out. I put like everything on there. Class days, photoshoots, homework times, practice guitar, devotion, laundry, watch Huckabee, etc. It really helps drive me to keep on top of my stuff.

Yesterday I over slept, but I did all my laundry for the first time since I got back from Rhode Island, that was two weeks ago. Haha. Gross, I know. I also got a ton of homework I'm behind in done. And all the other stuff I had to.

When I got home from school today it was the same. I still have homework to do, but I did everything else. So that's relieving.

And seriously, I've shut down so much the last two weeks because of everything that's going on. And if you don't know, well, break ups after over year long relationships really stink. Like, really. So to be able to be super productive, finally, is really just, I don't even know. I just feel a lot happier because of it.

Last night I sort of had another shut down moment. I actually do really good during the day, and then the later evening comes and I really start to think about everything, and it's such a bummer. I did a lot all day, and after around 11, I was just kind of done with everything. I tried to keep doing homework, but I just couldn't think about it. But enough of this sad stuff! I have tonsss more exciting crap going on.

I have 4 photoshoots this week. I'm so excited on that. They're free, but I don't really care. I have at most 3 more free shoots that are possible, but not for sure yet. Then I have my first 2 paying ones that still need to be set up. But I'm really excited I'm doing so much for it now. And the feedback I've been getting is so nice, thank you everyone. Really, it means a ton to me.

Musically, things going on are really cool too. Some of the dudes here in a band called A Shipwreck, A Castaway asked me to try out since they're looking for a guitarist. They had a different dude try out before me, and they really dug him. So they kept him, which is fine with me, I have enough other stuff going on. But it made me really want to get into doing music again and take it as seriously as I used to, like back when I was in It Is Finished. Then, my whole life was my band, and it was good. So I decided to go full force with my acoustic music, alexdavid, and treat it like I would as if the guys from The Chariot asked me to play. Because I've treated it as a side project for so long, so it gets about as much attention as anything else I would push off to the side. I'm sick of it. So I'm really hoping to get my EP done over Christmas Break, or at least most of it. I've had tons of ideas for it recently too, so that's cool. I'm excited to get back on that.

I'm also playing my metal version of Angels We Have Heard On High for the Jr. High on Friday, that's a fun little side note.

That's the majority of what's going on. And like I said, the last two days I've been doing really awesome, especially today. I'm liking school again, finally.

But I did want to talk about one last thing.

I was reading Matthew 9 today, and this verse was sooo tight. It's verse 12, and Jesus is talking to the Pharisees, when they asked him why he kicks back with sinners and tax collectors,

"Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. (13) Go and learn what this means, 'I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

much love.
