trying is failing
Yoda is an excellent preacher, no one ever uses that word anymore why that is? I used to goto a baptist church where our preacher taught a sermon on this very subject of trying and do and the difference between the two. I didn't understand the reference then being so young at the time but now I do and even then I agreed you gotta do it not just try sure trying isn't always failing but it is somettimes and most of the times so just do it now I have to pay nike 5000 bucks at least

Don't you know the dewy decimal system?
Well it's monday again you know what that means, work.
There are two movies that are coming out that look like they maybe the best movies of the year and they won't win any oscars. Wolverine and Star Trek. The Oscars snubs so many good movies. We need better award shows they're so boring by the end I don't even care who wins. They're so long but they do cover a whole year so that should be expected I guess.
I was thinking about something during church yesterday. In the song "This is the Air I Breath" there is a stanza that reads And I'm lost without you, our church has the words in spanish below and it intrigued me that without in spanish is sin. And that's what sin really is. It's you being without God that's also what Hell can be not just in life but in eternity. So I thought that was interesting. I have once thought about writing a book about sin and calling it Missing the Mark cause that's what sin means. In the olden days sin was a measurement of how much you missed your target in archery. So that's what you have learned today by reading this even though no one reads this. Which is a shame.

simplicity
I guess what I'm trying to say is that people need to be greatful for the little things that make up life. I know it's a cliche' but it's the truth. There is a reason that they are here, and they help us out in life. Not all of life is complicated. It shouldn't have to be.
I know that Jesus wouldn't want us to worry about all the complicated things that we worry about all the time. That just cause more grief restlessness for us. He wants us to have peace and for us to attain that peace we have to have faith in him and he have to follow him. Only he can lead us peace.
Peace can be a simple time in your life admists all the chaos of the business of living.

This sounds like it's a country song
Growing old is nothing new
It’s just part of life
It’s not something I want to do most of the time
And I’m wondering when I’m going to grow old
It’s not as hard as it seems out there
It’s just your way of looking at it
Happen’s to most everyone
So why be afraid
Of the old man inside
Growing old is nothing new
It’s just part of life
It’s not something I want to do most of the time
And I’m wondering when I’m going to grow old
It’s not my a thing I can change
It’s just relative, age
All things come to an end
And sometimes that’s the best part of the book
Well growing old is nothing new
It’s just part of life
It’s not something I want to do most of the time
And I’m wondering when I’m going to grow old
Will everyone still be around?
It’s just the changes that I sometimes don’t want
It helps me to forget about myself and why the story has changed at all
Cause Growing old is nothing new
It’s just part of life
It’s not something I want to do most of the time
And I’m wondering when I will ever grow old

movies ,and the month of april
I guess I will start with Bolt cause that's the first one we watched.
It was pretty good it was funny. It wasn't too long. It did take a while to get to the conclusion though. There was a good balence between humor and excitement in it. Bolt is a good character and his voice was played by John Travolta of all people. I was kind of suprised when Heather told me that. This is definitly a kids movie and I'm glad that the people who made this didn't try to sugar coat anything. Bolt would hold a car with a badguy in it over a bridge, that was awesome. You don't see that in some kid's movies. So it was a pretty good movie, and I would reccomend it to anyone really. It's a family film, It's a cartoon but it has a certain appeal to adults too. This is something that Disney is good at.
Slumdog Millionaire is a great movie. It was directed by Danny Boyle who did another movie that I really like, Trainspotting, there were connections from this movie that reminded me of the Trainspotting. Like the running scenes and the scene when the kids were playing sports in the begining of the movie.
The characters were really the best part of this movie, I'm not surprised that this is movie is based on a book either. The three main characters, Jamal, his brother, and Latika, were all really well developed. This movie jumped around a lot. But it wasn't hard to follow. Supposedly there are twelve other scenes in the movie that's like another half of a movie worth.
I wonder how many deleted scenes there in an average short film?
Well they were both great movies, and I could watch them again.
April is begining to be a busy month. Heather's birthday is in two weeks and I have more tests and two research papers to do this month. So that's kind of a lot of stuff to do.
the more I listen to Demon Hunter the more I like them.

I’m sure what to write here right now. I want so much all the time it seems. I don’t know why. It’s just me I can get very impatient. Life can cause this, but really who’s to blame? Most of the it’s us. We do this to ourselves all the time and most of the time we don’t want to stop it or we don’t know how. I’ve prayed for patience countless number of times and I always receive it. Sometimes I’m not even thankful for this virtue that I am able to have.
We all need to have a good mentality about ourselves or else we just become a wreck. We get messed up, stressed out, or just begin to fall apart. Who can save us from this repulsive feelings? Christ can. We must look to him and cast our cares upon his shoulders when we are in need of his help, which is most of the time that we’re here.
Sometimes we are resistant. Why? That’s not right or righteous. Just accept it, accept what he is doing in your life even if it is not what you want. We won’t get what we want all the time. Face the facts that God loves you and he wants you to be more than happy, he wants you to have joy, for it comes from the Lord. So accept that joy and feel better about your situation.

late night
I want to do this with more meaning involved. I guess I’ve always wanted to be one who didn’t stay within the box before and I still hold true to this now, but I do like consistency. I’m sure most of us do. Something’s are hard to explain sometimes. But I guess it’s like this I like to do this I like to write I know not everyone does but I do and since I do what I should write should sound better on paper and have more meaning than it has before. I’ve read blogs like this before, I read one like this on someone else xanga who I used to be friends with and one by Tim of Underoath who wrote about doing. You have to do something in life, and this is one the things I do in life. I guess I do well I don’t have enough criticism under my belt from peers or teachers to tell me this, but at least I can write coherently.
Anyway now that that is settled I guess I should get down to business I switched to Blogger because I felt like Xanga and MySpace are too juvenile for me. I need an outlet that is more adult per se. And this is it even if my screen name is ninjajared. I still want keep this fun; I watched a video that was really an April Fool’s Joke about quiting cause of what he was doing became too much like work (which isn’t a bad thing). I hope I don’t hate work some much again as I used to in the past. I mean really don’t now but that is a totally different subject. I just want a place that’s more for adults, more mature.
I still miss the village church. I still miss Pastor Dave’s Sermons, and of course I miss playing music every Sunday I knew I would miss that. It’s bad how much I miss the place but none of this should be blamed I mean it all came so quickly. I don’t think a lot of us had time to prepare for those last moments there, I know I didn’t. I wasn’t actually ask to speak at the last service, my wife was and if she was going to say something I would have stood by here and said something too. But She gracefully said no about that I know it would be hard for her to say something about it. It was an emotional time for all of us. And now we’re at a new church and the Mosaic Church has greeted us with opened arms, I’m still trying to find my way in there I want to be more plugged in than I am now, but it hasn’t been easy for me I want to play for Mosaic but I’m just not as good as they are I feel like I should’ve known this. I’m pretty much a self-taught musician I’ve had like one bass guitar lesson from Nick and that’s it. Everything else I have picked up from reading fake books and by just playing music either by myself or with other people. Sure I’ve played for a long time I can say with confidence that I’m not bad I’m a good bass player but I guess not as quick as some people are when it comes to learning new material, I have to work at it, but once I got it, I got it. So I still want to be up there playing music because I love doing it. It’s fun I get to interact with God and with people. Playing music has always been about fun for me but I always want to get better at it. I certainly do want get better at what I do in life that should be part of everyone’s goals in life.
Well I guess have gotten a little bit more serious with music as of late and I would always like to record some albums and of course release them; I might as well do it on my own terms for right now though. So When I figure out some way of finalize these songs I have in my head and actually record them either on garage band or on something else, I’m gonna make an album, and I’m gonna sell it somehow. Through myspace (shutters) or Itunes, maybe tunecore if I get that thing to work.
Well I guess if I’m on the topic of music there are two cd’s I want right now, they are MF Doom’s latest release, “Born Like This,” and Impending Doom’s new album, “The Serpent’s Servant,” I’ve recently heard some good songs from both of these. I’m surprised I don’t listen to more rap. I like it, it’s just hard for me to find artist that I like enough to buy their cd’s in the rap world. There’s so much explicit material in rap too it’s not good for me to listen too. It’s not healthy that is.
School is almost over.
I’m ready now.
