best/worst of 2004
i never did a best/worst 2004 so here goes.
best booty i saw...
it might have been because i was really tired whill pulling an all nighter at the computer lab spring sememester but when eduardo said one of those oh dang cusswords and said check that out i turned my head right and saw what was to be perhaps the finest booty i saw of 2004. it read "abercrombie" in yellow letters atop those maroon sweat pant things that girls are wearing these days. it was a perfect booty. and it gave me the umph i needed to stay up the rest of the night and finish that philosophy paper on rene descartes.
best hug...
i was in phoenix on the blindside/mewithout you/the kick tour. it was a rad show and even dave mustane from megadeth was there but about during mewithout you's set i started gettin' all freaked out by being in this little corner and there being way to many people near me. i don't know i just started getting stressed. anyway. i moved my stuff to the back of the club and chilled back there. then this girl, prolly under five three and maybe a hundred pounds says "can i give you hug?" and i'm all about hugs so i said yes and this girl hugged the crap out of me. she squeezed way to hard and i was definitely taken back but there was a power in her hug. and i remember just sitting there going "that was the best hug ever"...it was like she imparted some sort of mystical feel good energy into me and for days and days i thought how special this hug was. but i have no idea who she was and will never see her again and that's okay. our relationship lasted one hug and it ruled.
best thing i learned in wisconsin...
the locals are mad that california has passed them in dairy production.
best/worst show...
has to go to fargo. if you were there you know what went down. haha. it was budweiser fest. they were drunk. they even moshed to acoustic music. and boy did they yell and flip me off like it was cool or something. but it ruled too. i'm glad that doesn't happen all the time, but i'm glad it happens every now and then cuz it's so funny. i love you fargo. march 11th let's party.
most convicting/inspiring/moving moment...
there was a few but one that comes to mind was salt lake city utah while watching mewithout you. a lady that is obviously missing a few screws. wearing sweat pants. old. greasy hair. band aid on her ear. gets on stage and starts dancing and yelling and laughing. everyone sorta looks at her and feels pity for her and laughs at her because it was funny but sad. i was not thinking of loving this lady...just pity. then aaron takes her by the hand and starts dancing with her. but he wasn't mocking her. he was enjoying the moment with her. loving her. and then he rested his head on her left shoulder and kept singing. it was one of the most beautiful things i had ever seen. her name was candy. and i gave her a cd. but she's homeless so i don't know if she ever listened to it.
food that i wish i ate more of...
green beans. i'm looking forward to eating more of these in the 2005.
best new thing i like to do...
eat steamed vegetables with my hands. and lima beans and green beans and canned potatoes too.
best author i discovered like new...
henri nouwen. he wrote return of the prodigal son and it rocked my world. i've since read other stuff by him and i'm diggin' it. there are some people that you meet or read and you feel "connected" to them or something. or you can just relate to them alot. and i do so with him to a point.
weirdest oh my gosh what is happening to me moment of 2004...
at cornerstone i was followed to a porta potty. i took a dump inside. and a few girls were waiting for me when i came out. that was pretty weird. speaking of porta potties, i remember trying to poo with my back back on and that was fun. it was dark too.
best in the palm of nature moment...
my three day little solo hike in arkansas. setting up camp and then there being one of the biggest storms of the year happen. rain like whao. the lightening lit up the forest and it was like a black and white movie flashing on and off. and i had food in the tent on accident so i had to run out in the lightening and find my bear bag and put the food in there. that night ruled. that three days ruled.
best camping with friend moment...
with jesse and it got cold. and it rained. and the tent leaked immediately so he had to sleep in the back of my truck and that was funny. watching him try to get up in there and then hearing him roll over and stuff and complain was funny.
best hardcore dancer...
in maryland. it was a girl in a number 12 yellow jersey. she had moves that made the brotha's say dang. must have some sort of ballet or drill team experience for sure.
most memorable god is speaking to me moment...
first show with mexico mexico in tulsa. full of punk rockers drinking much and girls with pit hair. i was scared. didn't want to do perform. "if you don't tell them of my love, then who will?" since then i have proclaimed from the rooftops what i have heard in secret. but oh i still get scared and had moments of wanting to go home and live in my pop up camper alone and have a vegetable farm but i am still pressing on.
what i don't want to happen in 2005...
people glorifying me the gift and not Him the giver.
i have done this long enough. "
----bradley hathaway....
now my favorite part was the whole lady on stage with aaron . that makes me love him even more.
i got this off his myspace. i left a comment too
about the lady on stage with aaron.
thats the most beautiful thing I've ever heard. aaron is such an amazing guy. as are you. but nontheless,
while reading i compared the lady to myself. Lately, i have had this indesribable love and joy for Jesus. He has made me so happy. I can't do anything but smile. I am living life out to it's fullest. and lately, I've developed this passion for witnessing, furthering God's kingdom.
I get so excited about Jesus, walking down the hallways in school I'll sing really loud one of my favorite hymns, or just talk loudly about how much I love Jesus. everywhere I go i have a habit of talking about Jesus out loud, talk to Him if I'm sitting somwhere by myself. It's almost as if He's right there, which He is, but I can feel Him and I can't help but express how I feel for Him out loud. some people love it, and "wish they had the courage to do that"(<---which it doesnt take courage, just a really deep love,) and some people think I'm an ideot and scare them. and some people pull me aside and ask me why i do the things i do and where I get my joy.
and ya know, you'd think it would be the lost people that would, laugh at me and uhm, make fun of me I guess, or laugh along to humor me because they feel sorry for my "mental illness". but it's not, it's my fellow Christians, the people who go to church with me. They get embarrassed when I'm aroundthem and I do all those things. and either they stare at me and i can see in there eyes that they want me stop but they dont want to hurt my feelings, but none of them has the guts to say anything. and I know how they feel about me, and somtimes i feel completely ideotic and like i talkto much about Jesus , etc. but its just then that Jesus grabs me in His arms and dances with Me! and sings aloud with me for the whole world to hear! and He loves me ! and it's then that i regain strength to go about and live my life the way i want to , in a way i think I'm worshipping Him with every move it make.
I'm sorry this is terrribly long and I probably didn't make sense in some parts, but wow..
that just blew my mind away.. and it encourages me to get up and dance like no is watching and sing like no one is listening. wow.!
sounds like you had a good year.
God Bless!
Love, Heather
