Gypsy trip was sweet this year. I enjoyed thoroughly the time away from school to relax and soak in the rays and at the same time growing spiritually. The devotion book that accompanied us during that week dealt with the respectable sins in our life, and it was through that book that I was able to witness areas of my life in the trip that fell under respectable sin. Also I learned more about what God considers sin (such as discontentment) that I was guilty of. I am convicted about being a stalemated Christian, too caught up in the comforts I've been blessed with. I engage in things that bring me direct happiness, and extrapolate more in place of actual work - I am a lazy person. As school starts tomorrow, I pray increasingly that my focus becomes more direct and that I do not put away what tools I have in order to better fight worldliness.

I filled out a bracket for March Madness for the first time this year... I totally neglected it over Gypsy, but it looks like Memphis is going all the way as I predicted...

I haven't updated in a while.   Today is a terrible school day.  I  took an AP US test covering two chapters I haven't read... I'm three chapters behind, gotta get the study guides done.... soon?  I got a physics test eighth period and I usually blank on those... no surprise if that test doesn't make it on my refrigerator door as an emblem of achievement.  I did bad on my math quiz.. I blame Fendley's teaching as always.  I have to type up the analysis (by the end of the class) for an article regarding a new law to give movies that show smoking an adult rating.  My portfolio for the class has been completed but not turned in.. I need a three hole punch to accurately display the papers we did over the "Toulmin" unit.  All day tomorrow I get to take a practice ACT... the worst part of it is that I'm indifferent.
