If you haven't heard.
This is the second night I haven't been able to go to my room to sleep.
It isn't too bad.
Other than the huge inconvenience it is.
I "created" this last night.
There also is no school tomorrow because the buildings are not "safe".
Because of all the water sitting in the basements.
We got something like eight inches of rain.
And the north branch of the Chicago River runs through our campus.
Intense!
Tonight at CollegeLife the speaker spoke on being holy.
And that we will never be unholy, because God will forever take our hardships for us.
And Jesus died for us, for that very reason.
Holiness is just something we have to reach.
In order to be holy you must not look at the people around you or look at your past.
Always be comparing yourself to the holiness of God.
I am always comparing myself to my past.
And using it as an excuse for how I am "doing better".
But really, I am not even close to the right standards I should be setting for myself.
New ideas are always so exciting!
And new ways to grow spiritually, and grow stronger.
I did this too last night.
I am having a hard time with a friend of mine here.
There is no confrontation going on, nothing like that.
But it is a view that I know she has, and makes it very clear.
She will not be friends with non-Christians.
Where in the Bible...
How does she justify it?
She also has a difficult time accepting people if they made poor decisions in their past.
How do you open up to someone like that?
Or draw near to them as friends?
I did more German homework today.
And I did some brainstorming [really think about that.. brain-storming, weird] on a paper for English.
Tomorrow will be more of the above, plus reading for bible.
There are so many concerts I want to go to.
It is hard to turn them down.
Here is a recent picture of Nico.
This was while he was in Berlin visiting his dad and younger half brother.
Gute nacht!

That sucks that your basement of your dorm got flooded. It may be a good idea to feel your friend that her belief brothers you and I know that there several things about one of my friends that brothers me alot and one of the things that when he feels me that something is brother him about me would ended using harsh words. I really don't like the fact that he curses and also I did not like when he jokely calls me the B word or something that is digusting. I don't even like when he talks about disgusting things. I am trying to think of how to tell him that he need to change those things about him if he truely wants to be my friend.
