Mmk, maybe a little bit of cheers.

It wasn't so bad. Dad stayed for the first few minutes, which sucked, but he left after. Shannon and I (mostly her, I admit) talked for about 2 hours. It was kind of fun. She's seen (and loved) Napoleon Dynamite, so we spent a good ten minutes quoting that. She really is cool. I /do/ wish I'd brought my journal though. It has my drawings and otherwise random art in it. Next time, perhaps.

Church was really good. We said the songs instead of singing them. It was different, but really good.

I wanted to talk to Leah really badly, but she ran out to the prayer room as soon as church was over. Oh, well. I don't blame her, I wanted to go there, myself.

I accidentally waked into, and was consequently invited to, a high school girls' bible study. They talked about stuff from a book they're reading, and I kind of drifted in and out of listening, but I did catch the last part. They were talking about how sometimes they find it hard to concentrate on praying in the prayer room. The someone was like 'Yeah, but even just being in the /presence/ of God is pleasing to Him.' Which is uber cool, 'cause...I haven't figured out how to make myself settle down to pray.

Sometimes, when I feel lonely, I imagine myself sitting in bed in God's lap, just being held. It's comforting and kind leaves me feeling peaceful. Sometimes I can almost feel arms around me. Uber.

Cheers!
