Why’d you have to come around, so soon?
I wasn’t ready for all this nature
The terrible green green grass
And violent blooms of flowered dresses
And afternoons that make me sleepy”
I use my digital camera alot during church events. Looks like all those times I harrassed people by taking their pictures has paid off. I got a preview of the new church directory which is set to come out in a month. Just about half of the candid photos were taken by me. So it looks like I did make a contribution to the church directory, no matter how meager.
That 4th grade Wednesday night Bible class I’m supposed to be teaching? Well I probably won’t start helping out until July 10th. I’ll be out of town on July 3th. I am looking forward to it. The guy I’m co-teaching with is a school teacher himself. I figure I can learn his methods and attempt to be able to teach on my own.
Check out www.blogathon.org. Basically it is a fundraising event which webloggers who post on online diaries (like this one) take up pledges. Then during a 24 hour period (July 27 this year), they post entries to their web diary every 30 minutes. After that they collect their pledges for doing this and give it to their favorite charity. I think this is a silly idea. What these people need to do is to get out of the house. No one cares if you post every 30 minutes to your lame web diary. Web diaries are so fickle anyways. How about donating your time to a soup kitchen for the homeless? Picking up trash in your city? Just don’t use passive nerdy recreation as an excuse to sit around and feel better about yourself.
The last post was done at midnight. That was no accident.
