Whew! Christians 4 Life recently started a new project called C4L:Overhaul. The project’s purpose is to kind of enhance or remove old feature and things and add in new ones. It’s more detailed than that but that’s as good as I can think of how to explain it. ha-ha.

Anyway, my point for posting wast to let you know that during the C4L:Overhaul project, new ideas were suggested by our staff to try out newer type programs so WordPress seems like a good idea for me for my site. I am a web/graphic designer, but my ideas are slim to none right now so this is a great addition to my site.

My apologies ahead of time for the mess and linking back and forth from the root site to the blog site. I’m trying to decide how to fully setup my site with my own overhaul.

Any ideas be sure to let me know. I needa hit the hay before work.

MLIC (Much Love in Christ),

So to day I was off from work (the only day this week actually), so I texted a friend to see if she wanted to hang out today. All was well and after a while later we decided to hang out.

THANKS TO THE LORD I was squared away and was in the clear and had nothing to worry about. It was tough and without the Lord I wouldn’t have made it through the day without Him and the faith He gives to me. Also, thanks to my Grandmother for the Old-Fashion Raising that helps me retain my morals and values of life and Christianity.

I felt a tad (very little) closer to her today but no, I’m sure it won’t work out b/c we’re from two different planets (almost literally) so that’s good to know and good that I could handle myself in that kinda situation.

I really never go hang out with friends for much of any reason but it was weird today that I did…hmmm. The Lord only knows (and hopefully will reveal why) I/we hung out today.

For now, gotta head in 2 bed 4 work 2morrow,

Andrew

 

 

Just a random note for me and you to know…

I have been studying up on marital/pre-marital (and family) relationships since working at LifeWay. I won’t go into details on what I’ve learned b/c I can’t remember it all. Not the point.

Part of a male of the general population’s job is to appeal to the female: physically, mentally, spiritually, (characteristically and personality) wise. I’ll be brief when I say that growing up, well…I wasn’t Brad Pitt.

Regardless, we’ll fast-forward to now time. I briefly had a chat with a fellow female classmate from High School who was a little higher up in the “ranks” of HS (special clicks [groups], cheerleading, beta club, fbla, etc. [IDK for sure what she did but you get the idea]). Anyway, whether you know it already, it dawned on me that a not-so-good-looking guy can have a legit relationship with a “high-class” girl, in one of many ways, being conversation.

Not that I want to date her (given the chance, I would), but that just proved my personal study that you just need to be able to condone a decent conversation with a female of choice to be able to strike further relations.

The only things left in my study that I doubt and haven’t figured out are two things: 1 being what I call stubbornness (for lack of a better word) of the female and 2 being a female already in a relationship (a new one, engaged, married, recently divorced, etc.).
Both of these “prohibitors”, to me, seem to be the only things that would keep a single male from having a relationship with the female of choice (who is in one [or both] of these situations).
However, more barriers exist that prevent relationships, but these are all that I can think of at the level of knowledge I have. Now that I know this information WORKS, I can put it to use in the future when the Lord brings about the right person for me.

Thanks for reading this suppose to be quick but turned out long blog. J

Well, once again we had another visit from some people from Heritage Baptist Church. This time is was the Music Minister and I suppose a deacon (not sure). Last time it was the Pastor. Anyway, so we made small talk (like the last visit) and this time I was offered a possible job (with decent money) as the pianist (‘maybe’ the organist)…and I don’t need a degree to do it! So I played an anthem piece (Go in My Father’s Name) for the MM and he seemed to like it…I couldn’t really tell. But I’m sure he was slightly impressed that I offered to play for him (since professionally you should offer a sample [interview] of your services or capabilities). I also told him I like to conduct/lead music, too. So he offered to help me out. I though he was a little rough or mean looking when I first saw him but he’s pretty cool. 🙂

So originally I told my folks I wasn’t going to have any musical connections to the church we choose to go to, however if it be the Lord’s will, I suppose I will work for/with the church for whatever reasons the Lord may have.

Well I got the AbRail in mail yesterday but haven’t opened it yet. Sigh. Hopefully it’ll work…to some extent.

My Life’s been a bit rustic lately…well over the last 4+ months (4 that i remember, at least). Anyway, It seems that I’ve gone down the beat path of becoming lazy. That of which I never wanted to be nor was taught to be growing up. I’ve been suggested to take it “Verrrrrrrrrrrrry little at a time” I konw the advice is good but i’ve tried it and it doesnt work.

My life’s become fast-paced. If it cant be done (or results dont show) quickly, I dont care to do it or  I do it with a lot of carelessness and not to the best that it could be done at.

As stated, i wasnt raised this way and it pisses me off thinking of how i have so much i’ve lost b/c of becoming lazy.

Some examples:

+70+ books on relational studies that i enjoy……..3 of which i have read alltogether
+A $1500 online program about A+ and Network+ certificaiton…wasting away
+A free Cisco Systems, Inc. course that could easily make me more money if I became certified…….sifting away.
+My 4 personal companies have lost prospective clients and my skill levels have dropped b/c i didnt stay up and learn about the growing changes.
+i’ve got a good job that could be better (product knowledge wise) but i’m not doing good at it b/c i’m too lazy to try or do right.

Well that’s just a touch of what i can remember right now. Almost everything is lazy in my life now and i DONT want to be this way. To make it easy for you to understand when I DONT want to be lazy i just become more lazy……IDK its hard to understand.

I just need to know if this is a “me thing” or if it is happening to other teenagers my age or something. Its really going to pull my down to the bottom if i dont change soon or find some solution.

Happy new year,
