things are starting to settle down around here. its been a bit less than a week, so everyone is very very comfortable around one another already.

we went to church this morning. i don't have many positive things to note about it. everyone is actually out playing ultimate frisbee right now, but i'm catchin up on a few other things around here. I'm leading worship tomorrow in our family group. basically we split into designated groups of about 8-10 students, we go over to a teachers house, have breakfast, do a little worship, and then talk n stuff...nothing heavy. but i'm regretting now saying that i would do worship. to early. among other things. then later tomorrow we're going to the YMCA bike trails or something? i'm not a biker, i dunno...hope its sweet. we had a volleyball tournament yesterday too, not sure if i mentioned that.

its amazing. this early and i already see the old (maybe true me) resurfacing. rather than flock to my community and some of the more socially attractive people, i revert elsewhere on my own. i guess its withdrawing and i'm not sure why. it may just be in my nature, it may be a number of other things. i wish i weren't that way though. i'm still avoiding my thoughts and i'm still rather cold in general. i can put on a good front if and when i want to be fun and stupid and such with people, but my most natural tendancy at least right now isn't terribly social. and i'm a pansy. i keep wimpin out of activities. and i'm whiner - something i'm aware of and want to get control of this year. and i know its only been a week but i haven't gone running or done one push up or anything...and i talked a big game about gettin in shape. i'll keep you posted.

some dude right in front of me is trying to stretch his ears, so he's whining quite a bit. i'm gunna try to find a ride to safeway to grab some munchies.

be easy.

Jimmy.
