Greetings,

Today, I finished season three of 24. I am disappointed with the ending so now I wait for season four. (tomorrow) That's how my week went.

My Air conditioner went out today. Luckily tomorrow is the hottest day so far. So we are not worried at all...

On another note, the new hillsong united CD, I love it. I burned it out last week though. I must have heard the whole thing a total of 30 times. Not exaggerating either. Tomorrow I am taking a break. Tuesday, the new crowder single should be released so I'm pumped for that. "How He Loves" is what it is called.

Changing The Way We Use Technology?

I saw this like a year ago and saved it. I don't remember when it comes out but it would have to be expensive. It is called Microsoft Surface. The new way to use a computer.

Video of the Week (Rockumentary 2)

This is the video of the week. David Crowder's new band documentary. Funniest ever! If for some reason you decide to close it out before the end, head over to the very last minute and watch it.

Monday, May 25, 2009

This extended weekend has been awesome. Although I have never puked this many times and still don't feel very good, its been good.

Yesterday, I began season three of 24. Yes it is freaking awesome.

Last night, I got the chance to hear the new United Album. It is incredibly awesome. Tear down the walls enters stores worldwide tomorrow. So awesome.

Diet Plan Week Two: Here we go! This last week has been dreadful.

Today my family and I went out to High Hill Camp to spend some time with our friends and fellowship. As the day continued on, my sister and her friends hogged the fourwheelers the whole time so I am like, "Hey lets get the golfcart and drive around camp!" So long story short, I nearly get the golfcart stuck in the lake fully covering my friend and I in mud forcing us to pull the golf cart out. It was a lot of fun. Now, I know what your thinking, "I why did I just spend 19 minutes reading this horible story?" Here is why, because you did not get a golf cart stuck in a lake.
So there you have it. Happy Memorial day!

Cow Tipping

Greetings.
So yesterday I worked at the good ol chicken restaurant. I look on the schedule of where I am supposed to work for the lunch hour. I didn't see my name on the usual cashier slot where they normally place me. Instead, I finally found my name under the COW slot. Yes, they asked me to be in the giant 8 foot cow suit. Normally I would be like, "YES! finally the funnest job at chick-fil-a!" But yesterday, I was really sick and could not handle it so they just asked me to be the handler. (the guy who stands next to the cow while on Boones crossing.) Now, why would we have a Handler when the cow is just dancing in front of thousands of cars passing by during the lunch rush? Here is why.

Around three weeks ago, Chick-Fil-A cows would just stand on the Boones Crossing exit by themselves. (no handler) One day, one of my co workers was the cow and long story short, The police and Ambulance were called due to the long lived tradition of COW TIPPING. Yes. Cow tipping. Some guy and his friends thought it would be funny while sitting at the Boones Crossing intersection to get out and ambush the 8 foot tall cow. Doing so, The cow lied in the middle of the road for several minutes before he was helped out and then the police finally came. So now we need the Handler.

Day 3

So Monday at 2:30, my mom tells me, "Zachary, I am going on a diet. You are gonna do it too." I said, "NO." She says, "its cool, the only catch is after three, you can't eat anymore carbs. Only protein" So I agreed. Monday night around 7:30, I went to McDonald's and simply told my friend Joe, "I will start tomorrow." He laughed in my face.

Tuesday came. I worked from 11:00-3:00 at chick-fil-a. At 3:17 i decided I would move the diet to 4:00 instead of 3:00 since I get off work at 3:00 now and I want to eat my free meal they give me. After 4:00 last night, I ate no more carbs though. Then I threw up for 2 minutes last night at 11:45 so I don't know whats going on.

So today, is Wednesday (just so you know) and I will attempt to actually succeed through my new diet. I will post how much weight I have 1. Lost or 2. Gained everyday.
Starting at 185 my goal is 150 by August.
Wish me luck.

Lost Theorys and Opinions

So after the two season finally of LOST last night, I have some theory's and questions I would like to share. The show itself was awesome. They did a great job of having a two hour finally and not answering ONE SINGLE question.

1. Why are there two John Lockes? Obviously the real one is dead so who is this other guy wanting to kill Jacob? Is it the guy at the very beginning of the episode who wanted to kill him? Or are John and Jacob related in some way?

2. In 2010, where will the survivors be? I really feel like they will have moved in time, but there is no way they can land in LA because there is a WHOLE nother season left. Maybe they will take off for LA from Sydney when they originally did in 2004 but they crash and remember bits and pieces?

3. Where is Arron? I think Jacob maybe Had something to do with it.

4. Where is Claire and is Jack's father really on the island?

5. There were literally like 8 different time frames last night in lost. You would think they would overlap each other and what happened then is changing now.

6. The people that had John Locke's dead body, who are they?

7. Did anyone notice when Jacob (in the flashbacks) visited all the main survivors it was during the climax of their lives in the show? (Marriage, Death, A first successful surgery, Falling out of a huge building and surviving only to find destiny ect...)

8. Who is Jacob? Does anyone think that he portrays God? I got the vibe as he was visiting everyone.

9. What was the loophole that "John"found?

10. Are Daniel and Sayid dead?

11. What happened to Miles' dad? Is he still alive? If he is, will he change history for Miles?

12. Now for the ending: It was great although I am incredibly ticked that they answered no questions. What does everyone else think? Facebook or email or call me with your theory's or more questions!

My Mom.

This past week has been crazy. This morning was the typical service that we have on Sunday mornings other than the fact that we had no sermon.
Instead, we had two moms come up and share their testimonies. It was cool to see my friends' moms get up there and share their passion for God and their love for their kids. It got me thinking. I have life pretty good. My mom is actually the best mom of 2009. (I will challenge anyone on that)
I really take my parents for granted. They love me unconditionally.
Dave Mehrle said this morning, The love of our mothers is the closest of unconditional love, that the love of God will ever be. My mom really cares about me and would do anything for me. It is is so easy for us to forget all of the nice little acts of kindness our moms show us each day. I love my mom.
Happy Mothers Day!

Worship

Greetings.
Today, we continued our quest through ACTS called "echo." We talked about Paul and Silas in the prison and it really got me thinking, when something bad comes my way, I am not always there to praise God and worship him. I know its bad but it is true. I sometimes find myself wanting to blame him, but at the same time, I understand that bad things happen and road blocks in my life will continue to occur and can only make my faith in God stronger. If I went to jail, (better be for something cool) I really think it would be hard to worship in there. Imagine singing and praising God as your cell mate yells "Shut up! **cuss word here and there** or I will stab you! **more cuss words**" something like that. I think I would find my self praying silently and that it is. Bringing the question back to me from this morning.
How do we worship fully?

One of my favorite quotes from this morning was "Worship must be based on truth. Not what we want God to be."

Then my friend Kyle just sent me a tweet on twitter saying "what happens if the truth is what we want it to be and not what God wants it to be? How do we find truth?"
I honestly don't know. I guess my own opinion is that the Bible is our truth. If we are following something other than the Bible, then all sorts of other truths come to the table. Hope someone will contact me with better info in this topic.
