April 4th, 2003

why am i still up? oh i remember… it was an awesome night… i got quite possibly the best summer job offer in the world…. and i got some uber-awesome mp3s made and uploaded. -D

night!

a giant danny head + a poster design + friends = an ubercool day

April 3rd, 2003

so here’s my exciting day so far.

i didn’t sleep well, and woke up insanely early this morning. (for me at least) i checked my email to find an email from andi miller (the midday dj for the fish radio station) asking me for a life-sized color printout of danny clayton’s head (the fm program manager for the fish, as well as a morning show dj). i love when andi asks me for help with projects… they are always the most interesting things. -P so after printing out a giant head, i drove it over to the fish studio.

oh, and speaking of computer projects, last night i designed a poster for the “city wide worship” event coming up (which will be sponsored by several campus ministries here at uwm, and a time to get together in unity, and worship God! yay!!). and after a couple hours, i came up with a poster design that i actually like. -)

so anyways, i’m super excited for the crusade meeting tonight. i was walking around putting up posters, putting handouts on tables, etc., and the coolest thing was i kept running into friends of mine! it was so awesome and just made my day even brighter! -D (HI REBECCA! *waves* -) ) and now, i just can’t wait till 6pm when everyone gets here. i think i’m gonna have to go downstairs and play the drums to get rid of some of this energy!! *hugz* have an AWESOME day all!! -D

rockstar!

April 2nd, 2003

i just got off the phone with aaron, (aka “the band” for tracy howe) and talking over the details for the next two days. anyone who knows me in person, already knows that independent Christian singer/songwriter, tracy howe, will be here, playing a concert on friday, and will be the special guest at our crusade meeting tomorrow night. just in talking to them this morning, made me even more excited for these events. (and i thought that i was uber-excited before! hehehe) i am really geeked about tomorrow night, cuz i’ll be playing the drums with tracy. i’m gonna be a rockstar. *makes a rockstar face* heh. ok. not really. but i still think its super cool. -D

but anyway… anyone in the milwaukee area, come hear tracy! email me if you want more info or if you want a ticket for friday. -)

ok. now time for me to get ready for class.

no foolin… God rocks!

April 1st, 2003

so someone reminded me that it was april fools day today. whoopie. but anyway, i remember when i was younger and i looked forward to april fools day, cuz i could ALWAYS fool my parents with some sort of trick or something…. and now look at me, i didn’t even realize that april was here already, let alone this day people call ‘april fools‘ day -)

but all april fools things aside, i just have to comment briefly about something. i received a compliment today that really made me think (in a good way). first off, if you keep up with the mp3s that i post on my webpage, you may have noticed that there are now more and more songs on there where i am singing and playing the guitar for our crusade worship team. well today someone said that they were glad that i was singing more at crusade. they told me that when i sing, it’s so… real, and commented that i have a real gift in music. this complement really touched me. not right away though. an hour or so afterwards, it really hit me. and i was like. ‘wow‘. i love how God gives me these tidbits of encouragement. i’ll admit, while i feel that my calling is in music ministry, there are days when i feel so inadequate. some days i feel like i’m just not ‘good’ in music, or that i just can’t do it’. but then God chimes in and chips away one more of the self constructed doubts in my mind.

so yea, that’s a little insight to what’s going on in my complex mind -P now this mind will go lay on that pillow on that bed over there. -) night!
