The weekend ahead looks very promising! Georgia State National Fair tonight, AU vs. Florida tomorrow, and who knows what else. I am just glad to have a break from school. Relief! I love the atmosphere of the fair: the smell of the food, the music, the rides, even all of those "interesting.." people that usually attend. And actually, the only one I have really ever been to is the Peanut Festival, so this might be kind of different, which just makes me more excited about it. New experiences, I need to expose myself to those more often. Not that going to a fair is that much of a new experience, but it made me think of them.
I loved Crusade last night. I always do, but it was an especially good topic. We just finished the sermon on the mount in Matthew, which we have been studying since the beginning of the school year, and last night we talked about being selfless - dying to self. This is one of those really hard things to do, for me, and I think for pretty much everyone. I mean even as I am typing this, I am thinking about ME, what do people think of ME that are reading this, how do I sound, how does this make ME look. We do a lot of things, so much we don't even realize, out of self-ambition, instead of just regarding others as more important than ourselves. People need people. We can't just keep holding on so tightly to the "my time", "my wants", "my routine", "my life". After all, it's not our own anyway. Don't mean to preach, just thought it was cool.
I haven't seen a really good movie lately and I'm craving one very badly!
