For my Christianity and the Creative Process class, we ponder how the christian artist thinks and makes decisions. So far, we've learned about Christ and Culture, and the many questions that arise about how to deal with a secular society from a Christian point of view.
Little did I know that so many "Christian point of views" existed.
Anywho, so while we're pondering all about that (and I say pondering as opposed to learning because Christianity isn't something you learn by a regular school textbook, rather, we talk about many different authors and their points of views as 'Christian Artists' and what that title implies as a job and as a lifestyle, and how it fits into the world today), we're assigned a project that includes Five Life Lessons called Credos, and we're supposed to emphasize one particular one, called a Micro Credo. Using an illustration, we tell a life story that formed this Credo.
SOOOOO... I wrote a Children's Story. About me.
*trying not to laugh*
It's super simple and Olga is illustrating as I type, but here is the story.
~Currently~
1. I am riding my bike from campus to campus. That's all. :(
2. I still eat in the Dining Hall for all my meals.
3. I plan on changing that. Although I still meet new people everyday.
4. I tried a Mango Boba Tea, with the dark, squishy balls on the bottom. It's pretty good.
5. SoCal slang is all abbreviations. Ex. Totes Adorbs= Totally Adorable. Even my professors use abrevs. Totes hils. (Totally hilarious.)
6. My nose is picking up scents that lead me home, like the firewood smell of August smoke.
The sunny smell of Tuscon, AZ, where I lived for two years. And others that bring me to sweet little GP.
7. My Alpha group grows more and more like a family.
8. A girl in my hall just got dumped by her boyfriend of 1.5 years. They even promise ringed each other; but she broke down weeping when she found out he changed his Facebook status from "in a relationship" to "single" and she cried hysterically, "He changed his Facebook status already?? Ohhhhhh. I didn't know. Now I know he's serious. Its official!"
9. I aced my Christian Life, Faith and Ministry quiz.
10. My typical snack: A FiberOne chewy bar and a bottle of water.
11. Exercise per week: walking/biking from class to class, whenever I feel like running (not often enough.) =P
12. Went to a Friday night semi-formal Yacht Party with a girl in hall, Whitney. Had tons of fun!!
13. Got an inflammation in my left eye. I hope it isn't Pink Eye...
14. New Alpha group catch phrase: " Like, I'm okay with that" or "It's so hard being me/us."
15. Feel more and more sure footed about my relationship with God.
Never feel lonely anymore.
16. Nobody is here on weekends. Nobody.
17. I'm thinking of becoming a ninja. Only on the weekends. It could be fun.
18. I can sing 1st soprano. Officially. It's getting stronger so long as I don't push it.
19. I love being here.
20. Still reading the Bible in a Year. Lovin' it. My improved handwriting reflects how much peace I've gained here, thus far.
21. Typical Fashion: Deep V-necks, board shorts, short shorts, high waisted skirts, long boards.
Lots of blondes.
22. Our Alpha group ordered V-necks saying, "If lost, please return to *picture of Leader in old granny outfit and make up* We also tie dyed shirts yellow/black after our group number's sign motto. "Group 23: Ima be Ima be Ima Ima Ima be" with a bumble bee.
I'm stoked for when they're dry!
23. P.S. Everyone here is beautiful. It's really ridiculous. Still, I'm trying not to judge a book by it's cover.
24. I hardly wear any make-up.
Sometime, I'll try to recount an event and write it down like previously. But lately, my head has been full of questions, thoughts, plans, and upcoming events; basically, lists. =D
Love you all! May your day bring peacefulness, joy, and most of all, love.
