toes.

sometimes when i hug people...i step on their toes. think about that one...not only is it true physically [i inevitably do step on someone's toes when i hug them] but it's true in more than the physical. sometimes to show someone you love them, you have to step on their toes. we need to be challenged. we need the wake-up call. we need to know that our toes aren't the only toes in this world of toes. the problem comes when we are so afraid of stepping on eachother's toes that we keep an arms-length away from eachother. this method works in our individualistic society that is north america, but it can't work in a church that wants to be community-focused. we need to hug eachother...and when we do that, there's gonna be some toe-steppin'. the question is this: what will we remember more? the pain? or the hug? pain subsides, but everyone always wants more hugs.

procrastination is the key.

That's my life motto. i won't mention what the key opens, it sounds positive with that part left out. so, speaking of procrastination i have discovered some great methods:

1. blogging
2. cleaning
3. reading (yes, ma...reading)
4. Lost (what's in the hatch?!)
5. church work (when schooling needs doing)
6. school work (when church stuff needs doing)
7. driving four hours to vernon to do nothing
8. creating to-do lists
9. sitting and thinking. possibly my favourite past-time.

i have a 1500 word essay due next Thursday. I've got 300 words written in 5 hours....it's really not that big of an assignment, but i'm loving the class so i actually care about getting a good grade. plus i've got to read three chapters of my psych text for a test monday. after monday i won't have time to do any homework. it's saturday afternoon, and i now have a 1200 word paper to write. and the library closes in 15 minutes. my weekend will be a write-off. reading break has come and gone...you'd think it's called 'reading break' for a reason. not me. yeesh.
