so the other day I woke up before the sun came up ... who knows why. I decided to get some shots of the sunrise. Here's a palm tree. I just read Dr. Price's description of how our Creator so perfectly instilled in us a sense of beauty - I want you to read it here


shane and shane's new album is amazing... get it.

beach, bank, bourne

- I love the beach.

- Bank of America hired me.

- The Bourne Ultimatum is an excellent movie.

I've been here in Carlsbad, CA all week with Whitney and her family. They rented a vacation house and we've been hanging around Southern Southern California the past five days. We went to downtown San Diego last night to hang around (I saw the dead sea scrolls! ... they're awesome). I decided that I would probably choose San Diego over all other "big city" feeling big cities to live in. San Diego has an awesome downtown that, to me, feels a lot like what New York would probably feel like if I had ever experienced it. Granted it's a lot smaller in almost every aspect, perhaps thats why I would choose it first. The loft apartments built on top of restaraunts and bars with the kind of fire escapes you find in all the good action movies would be awesome to live in. Too bad I won't ever be a millionaire ... which brings me to my second reason for blogging:

I got a job at Bank of America. Starting next week, I'll begin the training process to be a teller at the branch on Mag and Tyler. This second job will help pay the bills and allow me to start saving some money for life (I guess thats what college grads need to start doing). I may be more excited about getting some nice new clothes for the job than for the job itself, who knows.

The Bourne Ultimatum was awesome. Since I have not yet seen Ocean's 13 I cannot with a good conscious say that Bourne is the one (contemporary) trilogy that gets better with each movie. I can say that Ultimatum was awesome. Did I already say that? I do find it necessary, however, to watch the second one and third one back to back, pausing and pondering how the two are so awesomely intertwined. To those who have not seen Ultiatum, make sure to watch the first two before going to see it; I did and it proved to be a great idea.

Like we say down here in San Diego ... Stay Classy!

A week or so ago my ISP team that went to St. Vincent had a little get together picture party BBQ. I made a 12ish minute video with a lot of my pictures and video from the trip. I gave everyone a copy and Kirk put it on youtube. I'm glad he did because it gives me a chance to show a lot of my ISP trip supporters that read the blog a little bit about the trip. To those who supported me either financially or through prayer or both, thank you. I literally could not have done it without you. God continues to glorify himself throughout the world, and I'm just glad I was able to be a part of it in St. Vincent, thanks to Him and a lot of you.

Enjoy the video ...
the quality isn't as good since it's on the internet, but oh well.
also, kirk cut a little bit out of it so it's only like 9 minutes on youtube.
