random thoughts

sometimes i wish i could be mean and still have people i am mean to see that i love Jesus. it doesn't work that way, which makes me not mean. i went to bed last night around 10:30 watching my favorite movie Beauty and the Beast (don't judge) and i get woken up to my neighbors upstairs at 2:30 this morning. they decided to have a small party or something with yelling and slamming the door. "hello! i can hear all of you!" i really wanted to go up there and tell them to shut up because i have to be up in three hours to go to work. but i didn't. i just asked God to make me fall asleep so i wouldn't get mad again and want go up there. they finally stopped making noise as i was falling asleep. i should have and i would have called our security guy at the gate if only i had the number to call. this is the second time that they have made such a racket that late in the night.

i get very amused watching girls walk into Tutwiler and walking "the walk of shame." sometimes it is funny but then it is really sad. the funny thing is seeing girls wearing the guy's clothes with their heels on because sometimes the girls really just fall asleep and nothing happens but the worse part is when you definitely know what happened the night before because of the way they walk in. another one that pretty much breaks my heart is when the girls come in and see a friend and the friend goes "did you spend the night?!" or if the girl who comes in and is proud of what she did and tells all of her friends. i see it on their faces and i can hear what they say. some of the girls do not know how to lower their voices when they talk to one another.

on a more interesting topic, i just read this article on recovery high schools. it discusses how teens who go through recovery are able to go to a real drug free school and receive a second chance of graduating high school. this interests me because there are some colleges who offer a recovery program school at their school. we had a huge discussion in my chemical dependency class on monday night. my teacher wants to propose the idea of having one to our school. not sure if it will work out but if it does i am all for it.

here is a blog from theCALL. Kris Edler discusses the Kings of the Earth. it's good. you should read it.

enough rambling.
