Juicing

Tea is not my thing. Aaron ("Fungi") informed me, though, that mint leaves juiced into fresh apples tastes great. Kyle, while happily munching on his noodles, suddenly says, "You juice bath water!?!" "No, Kyle," I reply, "but if you want your can." And people that I had bad hearing.....

Early Rise

Since coming to Fountainview, i have started to do many things that i never thought i would ever do. For one, enjoy exercising. Two, get up early for more than one day in a row. Now that we are on tour,we always get up early, but there is no time to exercise--if your normal. Sarah Miller and I don't seem to be normal because this morning i got up an hour and a half before required just to do the Firm. And were did we go it? In the guys bathroom next to a urinal.  Yes, i know it wasn't very sanitary, but when i wake up at 5 am, anything goes.

Frost Flakes


I just love teachers that let you be spontaneous! When we woke up this morning, there was this beautiful frost everywhere. So during english class Julie and I went out to take a few pictures. 





My beautiful friend Julie K.





In the distance you can see Mount Askom

+ - Stick

Yesterday, we had a day tour to Penticton. Since it was a four hour drive both ways, we ate our lunch and supper on the bus. I was sitting next to Way Anne. When the carrot sticks came, i was like, "Man these things are huge!" Way Anne replies, "Yeah, like bread sticks. Minus the bread, and plus the carrot." I just love her :)

Falling

Before Time

I just love the ocean! Up until i came to Fountainview, i had never been to the Pacific, though. I was severely disappointed for many reasons. For one, the water isn't warm, there aren't many animals, and finally (the most disappointing) there are no sharks teeth on the beaches. Trust me, i looked.

From this thought, i was considering how evolutionists view predator prey relationships. Now in days, sharks are viewed as some of the biggest predators in the ocean. Hands down the most scary. So "60 billion years ago, before mammals had developed" who were the predators? Well well, let me tell you my little incompetent infidel (hehe), the way i see it is the biggest small thing was the big thing back then. You can just see it in your mind's eye, "I'm hungry. I think i'll go hunting," says the ameba. As it prowls through the liquid of the pre-developed world, all the tiny water molecules begin to get nervous. As the ameba grows closer, the mommy molecules herd all their little babies into clusters. Tiny, high pitched screams ripple the water as the ameba snatches and stuffs one after another of these tiny morsels into it's hungry non-existent belly.

So, that my friends is how predators used to look. Now, you and i are at the top of this food chain. Water molecules go down the chute without a second thought. (But hey, if you could hear them screaming would you still drink them?)

Thankfully, we know that that's not the way things used to be. "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.. and all that in them is and rested on the seventh day and blessed it." This is the true way of living, and i'm so thankful that we came out on top!
