when new and old converge, part 2!
so as mentioned earlier, i went out with Pam and Alfredo. we actually went by aliases. we thought it would be a lot more fun that way. so it was a night out on the town with Michelle and Freddy. i was known as Madison. the names werent as successful as we thought they would be but we had TONS of fun! Pam forgot about her bangs and talked to tons of fun guys and i got to spend time with one of my favorite guys! its funny how everytime "Freddy" and i hang out, people assume we're dating. it sucks for me but heck, sometimes its not a BAD thing! i didnt take too many pictures, i never do! so i've decided to post up 2 out of the 4 pics that i took tonite!

"freddy" and i in the southern cubby (correction: Michelle says it was the country snug, i think!)i think thats the name of it!

i think the picture came out EXTREMELY adorable! he and i have a deal that if we're not married by 30, we'll marry each other! if thats the case, this is gonna be our engagement pic! lol

here's a pic of Michelle and i on the bike shaped bike rack. the pic was taken in a rush because i didnt wanna get arrested! on the front of the bike, there's a sign saying you're not suppose to climb it! oops! oh yeah, if she doesnt like it, im taking it off!! sorry guys!


i had an awesome nite! it was fun! love yall for sharing it with me!

im jacking the Corithians passage from your blog. . .i wanted to share it to others (specifically Pam) i think im gonna start reading bits of the Bible for pure learning. i should have read it my senior year for english (for the purpose of being familar with biblical literary allusions) but i didnt! the pages are sooo freaking thin! i've heard so much great stuff about Corithians that im gonna have to check it out. if im gonna be knowledgable about religion, i should start reading the stuff!! the passage is as followed:
Corinthians 13:1-13
1
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2
If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.
3
If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
9
For we know in part and we prophesy in part,
10
but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
11
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
12
Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.


this week has been quite interesting to say the least. it hink if anything, i've learned a lot about myself and my friends. i'll be honest, for the past, hmmm 3 years or so, my confidence and self-esteem has suck to an ALL-TIME low but i think im starting to slowly recover! being around other AWESOME WOMEN like Pam and Maria has be starting to believe that I AM AN AWESOME PERSON!! i've never thought of myself as HOT. . .but i dont think i'm ugly either. if anything, i've always relied on the fact that i'm a damn fun person to be around. i think tonight was interesting. it was the first time Pam had ever seen me interact with a boy in such a way. she found me to be really confident around Alfredo since i was all huggy touchie feely and stuff. ironically thats just how i really am around guys im comfortable. im truly a very affectionate person! i think i just need to believe that i'm awesome. . most importantly EXTRAORDINARY! gotta go back to Liz Phair and listen to her song! yeah! but yeah, tonight has taught me a lot. i need to EXUDE confidence. something that each woman works on everyday. im FINALLY starting to begin walking down that path. =)

i'm tired. . its late. . have a good night everyone!
