The Chronicles of a Christian

I'm an official resident on Moncton!

To all of you freaking out thinking that I am no longer in Carleton County....I am...no fear. I guess the more approprate title is "My Belongings are Official Residents of Moncton". Today my mom, dad, and I moved my stuff to Moncton. It was a long very amazingly long ride (3 hrs) to Moncton and back...but I have most of my stuff ready. For me to walk in and hang out..in my OWN PLACE. Well, it's not really my own place, but Im bording, in the basement, by myself.

I'm moving for real on the Thursday before the Stones Concert. No, I am not going. I just want to beat all of the crazy goons going to the Concert to moncton so they don't kill me trying to get there.

I bought a super sweet chair at Pier 1...super expensive but if you ever come to my apartment you have to sit in it. Also, I am currently taking up a collection for my good friend J-RO. He needs his hair dyed...also anyone willing to work for him for one day so I could do it....you'd be of God.

So here's the big thing for today. My landlord has kinda made it appear that she hates anyone who's "rich" (I use that term loosely because most people that you see today that you'd say were rich really aren't, they're in debt up to their eyeballs). If you know me, you know that I live comfortably. I really really hope that I don't walk around pretending that I'm "rich" cause the only thing that I really have to boast about is Jesus Christ and what He has done. If you think that I do that, as much as I would be upset, I need you to tell me because as a child of the King, I really need to watch how I present myself. Well,my landlord went on to talk about that her parents never bought her a car (I recieved a car for my 16th birthday it was a 1993 Crown Victoria....very modest car and hopefully I'll be getting a new car soon. Oh yeah...1993 Crown Victoria for Sale 1500) and how she had to buy everything herself. Well, my parents went out and bought me a brand new bed (that's as hard as a rock...willing to trade) and a new chair that I have wanted forever!! Yes, the chair was expensive, although the matress was not, but what my landlord didn't see was how long my parents worked, and how many years my grandmother worked (cause she gave us the money to buy that stuff with). I really just want to encourage everyone, to see a different side to the story. Don't hate the kid that has the name brand clothes, cause usually they sacrificed the name brand clothes for time with one or both parents. Also, as Christians, we aren't suppose to envy one another. God will provide for us, exactly what is needed, don't worry. If you need something, or even want it, please Post...I want to pray for you...I believe that God wants to give us even our desires (not just needs). I know this because I have one of the coolest friends in the world Amy, and her mom is in St. John doing a course for nursing. Amy and her mom are super tight and this is Amy's grade 12 year and for a long time it didn't seem like Amy's mom would be home for her first day of school (this is a big deal to Amma). I began praying for her to be able to come home, and as of last week, her mom was coming home.

(BACK TO THE TOPIC) I guess maybe because I have been put in the financial position that i have been it has made me want to give more. Don't tell Danielle this yet, but she's getting flowers tomorrow. She's had a rough weekend. But she's amazing, and God loves her so much, she knows that so she'll make it through.

So guys, look at things from a different point of view, and remember that God loves you a ton, and wants to give you not only what you need, but your wants as well.

Love you all so much!

And the winner is.....

So, since everyone that has a blog has commented on the go-karting (happy beck? lol) expereince I figured so shall I...

The night started out by me and Becky deciding that we wanted to go do something. I thought, hey, let's go to Presque Isle Wesleyan (which has rockin' Saturday Services btw). We called Jess Mac to see if she and Jody wanted to go but unfortunately (as we later learned) they were in Nova Scotia (maybe next time). Then we figured hey, J-Ro might wanna go, but he wasn't home, and I think when I called his dad's house I asked for Joel (haha). So we called Kate (aka Katelyn Smith) she's always ready for fun, so we decided to pick her up! Then we found out that J-Ro was at...oh goodness can't think of his name...James!'s house...so I called there, but James didn't feel like going (and didn't ask if J-Ro if he wanted to go). J-Ro ended up calling me back and getting me to pick him up. We then booted our booties to Becky's house, and then booted our booties back to Becky's to pick up her ID and then to Kate's house. By that time, it was pretty much too late to go to PI Wesleyan, so someone (sorry forgot who) said we should go go-karting. Sounded like a good idea to all of the rest of us. So we went through the Houlton border, but before that, I astounded my passengers with my exporting/importing knowledge. We went to the Canadian Border and got J-Ro's IPOD a green card so we didn't have to pay duty on it coming back into Canada. Now, off to the American Border. We were asked where we were going, we asked where the closest place to go go-karting was. He then said it was past "my brother's place". It sounded funny eh? So I just had to ask, was it really his brother's place (come to find out that's what it was called)....Beck went into histarical laughing (he probably thought she was stoned) and the customs officer asked our ages because he probably thought we were dunk (but I liked Kate's philo. he thought we were hot...minus J-Ro of course)

Soooooooooooooooo.....
We went to Wrench Raceway....where it was 1$ a minute (RIP OFF!!!) And there were some crazy guys (I assume they were all related) and the "dad" had a mullet...it was great. They were going more than once, so they had to get out while we went on our turn...although they did want to race. Kate picked the John Deer one (Brandon would have been happy) that turned out to have crappy steering. J-Ro (aka Josh..cause that's what I keep tying and having to erase) had the one behind her. Becky was infront of me, in a blue kart, and I proudly displaying the Red Budwiser Car. (Woot gotta love Dale Jr!). Becky began the race (cause Kate was scared lol) and I followed (then Kate and Josh). Becky got a massive head start cause you had to floor the stinkin' things to get them to move. I think I passed Becky (atleast I hope I did that way I can keep braggin that I won tee hee) and then Josh for like the last 2 minutes kept trying to pass me. See, I was smart, and told him not to bump me at the beginning so that it wouldn't "scare me" (Heck no it didn't scare me) so everytime I went around a turn I headed for the inside of the next turn, so Josh couldn't pass me. HA!

After we were done that we decided lets go to PI (Like 1hr and 15 mins away!!) and go to Taco Bell....then like 15 mins up the road we decided it was too far, turned around and went to Wal-Mart to see if Kate could get sandals for Emily's wedding, and Josh some glasses. Unfortunately there weren't any sandals, and Josh didn't like the pink avaitors that Becky picked out...it's too bad really...they were hot. We then went to Burger King, where I let Josh pay for my meal (that never happens...I like paying for my own stuff) Then it was time to head it back to Canada!

THIS IS THE LONGEST BLOG EVER....I HOPE YOU ALL APPRECIATE IT AS IT'S 1:47 AM!

The Highest Compliment

As many of you have figured out/know my parents aren't living their lives to the full potential that God wants them to.

Today my dad and I were at the bank talking to the bank manager, and he started talking about the bank manager being the god of the bank (weird I know, but this is also the man who calls a kiss a 'tiss') where he proceeded to tell the banker I was "religious" but then corrected himself by saying that I was a Christian! Man, that was so stinkin' awesome! My dad has noticed that I have made a choice! Awesome! Just wanted to share with you all so that you can rejoice with me!!

Welcome To the Boyfriend Club!

Hey
Just a quick note to say that Danielle and I have inducted another member into the "Boyfriend Club". Congradulations Becky!

For those who might not know what the "Boyfriend Club" is, basically Danielle and I got sick of "BOYS" not being considerate and doing the sweet "gentlemen" type things for us! SO we decided to do the nice thoughtful things for each other. This means that when one of us has a really bad day (like the time Danielle thought she flunked her Math Exam or when I had my wisdom teeth out) the other does something thoughtful for the other (and it usually involves CHOCOLATE!!). We also believe that guys DON'T give flowers often enough so we tend to give those frequently.

If you'd like to enter please post! lol yeah right! lol
