once in a lifetime right here

"It sucks living in Georgetown."

"Georgetown is the bomb!"

"Yeah it'd be nice if it blew up"

couldn't forget this one. Fast thinking there john...

thinking out loud

Every so often I think about something really hard and then it seems like I was thinking out loud, and I wonder if anyone heard me. It's a weird feeling, like everyone knows what I was thinking...but then I realize I'm just insane. I don't talk to myself though. Cause then I'd have problems.

Yeah there's my sad excuse for a post everyone! Hope you like it!!!

I added a picture, just for kicks. It looks really warped, which is why I like it.

good way to end the day

sometimes I wish FPFHF could happen everyday

philosophy #3592

Yes, here it is. A real post on my blog that will have actual meaning!

I'm assuming you all remember Mr. Kooy, who now is the youth leader/pastor at my church. This morning he preached the sermon, and I got something out of it, which I am going to share. It's an activity guys, be excited! This is what he said to us (in a nutshell)

Think to yourself: What are ten particular sins that I've committed this past week? (Try and remember some...because we all sin)


Hard, isn't it? At least, I found it hard. It's supposed to be difficult.

Then, think of something somebody did to you that offended you, or something that you'd consider a sin. Something like that.


That doesn't take long, does it?


And there's the point of the sermon. Or one of them. We're really good at pointing out other peoples' faults, but we can't pinpoint our own. It's basically the lesson in the Bible of removing the plank from your own eye before you start thinking about removing the speck from someone else's.

gimme an S--L--A--C--K--E--R--S!!! what's that spell?

"ok guys, we'll watch the next one after it finishes loading...um...just take a five minute break"

a five minute break from watching movies...yeah ok. so that's what you guys do in video block!

ummmm john?

they popped their collars and everything

aw kathleen and I...a very nice picture!

jonathan's brand new display pic!

totally retro

so since everyone's been posting pictures...I'm following the trend. I came upon some good old grade nine band trip pictures, and just had to share them with all of you. I can't believe how young we all look!!!


So here's me and Tara in front of a floral clock at Niagara Falls...and we only knew eachother from badminton!


We're so dutch...we get a picture taken "inside a photo booth"...in a sense. ha and Lenore's reflection


aww Kathleen and Abram! I don't think I even knew you guys when I took that picture, but I knew your names. Crazy how things change in a year!


I heart this picture...I hate it when siblings leave TD, but it was awesome having Suze around for my first year...I don't know what I would have done if she wasn't there!


HA john...that was an awesome mini-golfing game, guys...but the go-karting was awesome(r)


...aaand last but not least, Brent. I was probably as tall as you here, and at one point i was taller, but yeah. not anymore, that's for sure!

I'm feeling nostalgic today. If anyone else has pictures from this trip I'd love to see them...or any pictures from grade nine, actually!
