newyearssurveys

So, I put together two surveys because I found two and they weren’t that super-long… and I am waiting for laundry to dry, so I have to find something to do. Tomorrow = going to visit Grandma & Grandpa on the Farm, so I will not be around. Have fun reading though.

——————————————————————————-

are you graduating?: No.

 

going to make a new years resolution?: No.

going to keep your myspace?: Bah… prolly.

 

going anywhere special?: Not for sure.

will 2007 be better then 2006?: It could be.

 

 

 

So… that is my reflection on the past year. Short, of course… but what else can I say about it??? It would be so boring that you would all decide to petition me to block you from my xanga again.

 

Anyways…

Later & God bless!

Chris: So, after I got over my weird fits…

Reeser: Yeah right, like that will ever happen.

Ye Olde Boredagaine Poste.

Name 9 people you can think of right off the top of your head. Don’t read the questions underneath until you write the names of all 9 people. This is a lot funnier if you actually randomly list the names first.. No cheating!!!

1. John T.

2. Kerri

3. Mike

4. Amy

5. Chris

6. Melody

7. Stacy

8. Dan

9. Rex

 

DONT LOOK AHEAD UNLESS YOU FILLED OUT THE TOP!

 

 

-How did you meet 3?

On the interweb, via Colin.

 

-What would be different if you had never met 1?

I’m not sure… I would have one fewer friend who finds LOTR and other stuff really entertaining.

 

-What would you do if 6 and 2 were going out?

Be really, really frightened. Pray. Hard.

 

-How do you know 8?

He went to my school.

 

-What do you think about 7?

She irritates me sometimes, but at least we get along better now.

 

-What would you do if 5 confessed they loved you?

He already did.

 

Fact about 9?

He’s very polite. I don’t think I’ve ever heard any hint of him being mean to anyone. Rex is pretty awesome that way.

 

-Who is 3 going out with?

2.

 

-When is the last time you & number 6 hung out?

Back in May. I miss her and I needa call her soon.

 

-What do you like about number 1?

He’s really very entertaining and has a lot of similar interests.

 

-Is 2 your bestfriend?

6 is best, but 2 is still a friend.

 

-Do you miss number 3??

Ml, considering we’ve never gotten to meet in person… that’s hard to know. I miss talking with him though.

 

-Where is number 4 now?

In Florida..?

 

-Have you ever kissed/madeout with any of the 9 people?

5.

 

 

 

 

So, I will post something better soon.

So, nobody visited my xanga or left me comments. They must be busy doing Christmas things. I, however, am not. I stayed up to 5 in the AM yesternight though, wrapping things. I got Melody’s stuff together, wrapped my mom’s gift, and wrapped my brother, James’, gift. Stacy’s took me a long time because I wrapped it in bags I had saved from Hot Topic. It’s very red and black. Not very Christmassy… but I’d had this idea a long time ago and not been able to do it. It was quite a lot of fun. I used the red string handles to tie on like ribbons and decorate it. I also put on some safety pins for good measure and used a tag on from my Tripp pants for a “to/from” tag. It’s pretty cool if I may say so  ^_^

Anyway, I have another survey for you… so knock yourself out. Or just read it. Or leave the page. Whatever works for you.

 

 

 

( – The (supposedly) Deep Survey – )

 

01. In what ways do you express yourself?:

Clothes, writing, music, talking… different voices… by making everything annoyingly literal.

 

02. What are you talented at?:

Writing and making things annoyingly literal.

 

03. What is your opinion of spirituality?:

That everyone has a spiritual side… but it’s really wasted in most of us. I think that because we live in an imperfect state it’s hard for us to gather up our spiritual selves and focus on one thing at a time… even Christians, I think. We’re supposed to be focused on God, but I think that our spiritual sides are a little like… a pile of feathers, maybe. We can try so hard to gather it all into one place and keep it neat, but we’re scattered all over whenever the slightest wind comes along. It’s hard because then after we get all scattered we have to have God come and help us gather it all back together again. I guess the feather thing is kind of a nice way to look at it though… because eventually we’ll be fixed up—and by “we” I mean those who belong to Christ—and be a whole bird again. This isn’t a perfect illustration, but hopefully you can understand what I mean.

 

05. What would you like to happen after you die?:

To me or to something or someone else? Me I guess… Umm… I think I would definitely like to not be saved as though I had just escaped through the flames…  >.<

 

06. Do you believe that everybody has a guardian angel?:

No. I happen to think that maybe God has the angels do things that may or may not have to do with looking after us… but mainly I think God is looking out for us. For instance, His spirit and providence guard Christians against temptation and they can protect us from other misfortunes, and I think He guards people who aren’t Christians in some ways too… for instance, every day they have is one more day to decide whether they will repent and follow Him instead of whatever they’re doing now.

 

07. Do you believe in angels and demons?:

Yes.

 

08. Have you ever experienced anything paranormal?:

Uhm… I… really don’t know.

 

09. If not, would you like to?:

Maybe. It depends.

 

010. If you had the opportunity to talk to a loved one who had died, would you?:

Nobody that I was really close to has died yet.

 

011. Do you ever attend church, religious or not?:

Yes.

 

012. When you are in a graveyard, are you respectful?:

Well… yeah. I have only been in graveyards a handful of times though.

 

013. If you don’t practice a religion, what are your general beliefs?:

Well, I guess I’m involved in something called a religion. However, my general beliefs are the general ones that I think a majority of Christians have about God, Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the church… those have several sub-points that I think you would get bored reading, if anyone is reading this at all. If you are reading this and would like to talk about it though, I’m sure that can be arranged somehow if you leave me a comment.

 

014. Are you scared of death?:

Of death? Like the idea that I will die? Maybe a little bit… like… I’m not really afraid of what will happen to me after I die, it’s just the “during” part of dying that makes me a little unhappy. I suppose death will probably be uncomfortable, so that doesn’t seem like something I really want to do… but there’s not really a choice about it.

 

015. What do you think of witchcraft?:

Welp… I think there is such a thing… manipulation of “magic” or “forces” or “energy”… but I really think that those things being manipulated are demons and that witchcraft is one tool that Satan uses to turn people away from God and get them to think that they are able to control spiritual forces. I don’t know… I really think that maybe that kind of thing is possible to an extent… but not through human power. Like, I think that Christians who are really filled with God do have the ability to exercise power over some spiritual forces—casting out demons, for example—but that can only happen if the person is using the power provided by the Holy Spirit. I have an idea that Christians who decide to deal with it without God get beat up—the bible has a story about that somewhere—and that non-Christians practicing witchcraft kind of end up like Faustus in some ways…

 

016. Do you like to read often?:

Yep.

 

017. Do you ever read any non – fiction, special interest books?:

Some. I have some books about Christianity and about Tolkien and how he constructed Middle Earth and things like that. It’s about Fiction, yes… but it isn’t fiction because it’s about his ideas. I also have that one book by Baudrillard that we read for scifi… I did not enjoy that book, but I think I understand it more now that I’ve had some time to sort out the semester’s learning into it’s respective bins in my brain…

 

018. Do you believe in astrology?:

Well, it exists… but I don’t believe in it’s predictions. Since the universe is changeable I really don’t think it’s possible to use the stars in any way to predict things… like personalities. I am supposed to be a “cancer”, but I really don’t agree with lots of things that astrological thingummies say I am supposed to be like. sometimes there are some things that are vague enough to maybe mean something, but so what? If all it can do is tell me things I already know or that I will find out anyway, then what use is it to anyone??? None, even if it did work.

 

020. What are you most afraid of?:

I am not sure. I think I have a lot more vague anxieties I could tell you about instead of real, concrete fears. I do have a phobia though. I am phobic about needles and doctory things… mostly the needles though. I did live through having my mouth numbed at the dentist’s the other day though… but it was still really not a fun time for me.

 

021. Have you ever had your life threatened?:

I… thought so once.

 

022. What is your opinion on anorexia and bulumia?:

It’s bad for you.

 

024. What is your definition of love?:

It’s in the bible… John 15:13, 1 Corinthians 13, 1 John 4:10 are some good bits about love, although there is a lot more that could be said about it generally and specifically.

 

025. Do you believe in reincarnation?:

I don’t, actually. I believe in spiritual rebirth when a person accepts Christ and becomes spiritually renewed with the Holy Spirit… and I believe in an eventual resurrection, which can also be found in the Bible… but not reincarnation, no.

 

 

 

That’s all for today, kids.

Later & Merry Christmas!

Reeser

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“You know, I hate when someone’ll be like “this song was inspired by the Holy Spirit”, and then it’s a lame song.”

Reese Roper

            (I kind of agree… but still… maybe the song isn’t working for you, but it works for someone else?)

Costume :: Party.

Beg :: Bog.

Hottie :: No.

Celebrity :: Special.

Saturday :: Special.

Buckle :: Belt.

Doorbell :: Knob.

Rude :: You.

Absence :: School.

Hyper ::Active.

 

 

I don’t know why special is up there twice… yeah. I don’t know.

 

So, nobody left me any comments. I guess that’s pretty understandable because I’ve not posted anything interesting lately. I do have something to post today though.

I’d been thinking of this now and then since sometime back during my days sitting in science fiction… and Stacy brought it up again this morning, so I think I will post a bit on it although I think I have mentioned it already.

 

So, what would you do if it was suddenly discovered that life was just a big game? Like… a simulation game, like “The Sims” or whatever it is?

 

This came up in my scifi class, and of course I totally don’t agree with it… I obviously don’t believe life is a “game”, but that question has some big holes in it that make it ridiculous to even ask.

For instance, if it were true that life was a “game”, how on earth could it be “discovered”? I don’t think it would be possible to discover it unless we were “programmed” to do so. My class also brought up the question of what people would do in such a situation—finding out that existence was a “game”—and some of them said they’d be fine, but others said they wouldn’t see a point to life anymore… I really don’t think you would have a choice in how you would react: you would do what you were programmed to do if you were a game.

 

Iono. Programming in this context sounds a bit like predestination… I guess I don’t stand completely on either side of the predestination/free will debate, but I really don’t think that the idea of life as a game or simulation can hold up with an ounce of “free will” involved. Games and simulations react the way they’re supposed to when information is entered… there’s no spontaneity, as far as I am aware. Maybe someone who believed completely in predestination could take that and be okay with it: they’re programmed to be Christian, for example, and other people are not. Therefore, if God had let it be known to us that this was what we might call a “game”, then they would be okay with that. At least I would imagine so.

 

I don’t know… maybe it would be easier to think about without bringing God into it… but… then, if this is a game, who is playing it and why? Who made up this simulation and what are they trying to learn? Why did they program me so that I would reject the idea of being a game/simulation??? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll tootsie pop?

 

Anyways… Reeser has dubbed it a silly question. I just wish I had been a bit more articulate about WHY when I was actually in the class. I had a lot of trouble explaining myself that day… the words just were not fitting the ideas that day.

 

Welp… if you happen to read this… let me know if you have anything to say about it. Please leave me a comment, even if it is to say something like “your posts are dumb” or “why do you always sign off with a name that you know we all know isn’t yours?”

 

 

Later days & God bless.

Reeser

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reeser: I’m flame retardant.

So. I should clean and wrap things tomorrow. Is that going to happen though?? It seems not all that likely… but what can I say? If I go shopping and then Chris comes over for most of the afternoon/evening, then I will probably get nothing done. I may do something before I go to bed, but that seems unlikely too because it is almost 1 in the AM. Stacy is still up too though…

I didn’t even get up until 1:15 today though… wake up, I mean. I actually GOT up at 2:45ish. I am not so good at keeping normal hours. Not at all…

 

Well, I have nothing important to say, so I think I’ll post in a survey.

So hey there, kids.

I noticed during the semester that, even though I was getting about 7-8 hours of sleep most nights, I ended up with these funky looking indentations under my eyes… basically I could see the outlines of my eye-sockets in the mirror, which was kind of creepy. I mentioned it to my mommy, only I said “my face looks like a skull”, since you could already see some of the bones in my face anyway and the eye thing just makes it worse… but I guess she didn’t get it because she told me I had spent too much time looking at the Demon Hunter pictures I usually have in the sidebar of my xanga. Oh well.

 

But, all of that hard work I did for school must have paid off. I got A’s in Mass Media, Religious Foundations & the Bible, Radio Club, Renaissance Lit., and Science Fiction. I got a B+ in Intro to Psychology though, so I guess that’s satisfactory.

 

And speaking of sleep… I should go get some. I am pretty tired.

 

 

Later days & God bless.

So, I have some bad news. I read the interweb and saw on my myspace that Roper had updated… and I guess they’re pretty much dead. Not dead literally… but I guess the band prolly won’t be doing anything else for a long time—if ever.

This makes me sad… no more Roper. No more Five Iron Frenzy. Prolly no more braveSaintSaturn.

 

*sigh*

 

Anyways… Iono. I guess that I’m just sad because, even though there are a bunch of other bands that I like a lot, there’s just no way to replace their music and the sort of feel that they created. They were special.

 

So, that’s about all I really had to say. I’m kinda not wanting to, but I have to go get my laundry from the dryer and then go clean my room, which sounds like the opposite of tons of fun. At least my obsessive compulsive side will be occupied.

 

So… later days & God bless,

Reeser

Reeser: Aaron got mad at Kim and I, and said he’d pay off one of our fellow Mafia members to knock us off because “money talks”. So I got him back by asking what he was smoking because George Washington has never spoken to me…

Melody: *laughs* I wish I was in your Spanish class… it’d be fun!!

Exams are done.

Yesterday I took my media exam and got an A.

 

Today I finished writing my exam about “what is science fiction?” and turned it in. it was the least good paper that Reeser has written this semester, with the possible exception of my “food” paper for religion.

 

I also went to school and wrote two essays for Renaissance Lit.  Said essays were about the importance and uses of literature from the Renaissance Humanist perspective, and a close reading on a poem about poor dead Laura who was so virtuous.

 

I also went to Religion and spent two hours starving—the exam was 3:30-5:30—and writing 4 essays about a book we read. That was not so fun.

 

Right now… Reeser tired. Reeser go night-night, k?

 

Bye-bye kiddos & God bless,

Reeser
