movies of the week: Sweet Home Alabama, The Barbershop

to start off with, Sweet Home Alabama was indeed a pretty good movie. i suppose if i was female i would like it a lot more. it had a good cast, for the most part. when i say good cast i mean, having people from such blockbusters as Can't Buy Me Love, Can't Hardly Wait, and Wet, Hot, American Summer, not Legally Blonde. The story was fairly predictable at every turn and sometimes WAY before you got to the intersections. but it was sweet, and had a couple good lines and a couple funny characters. i never really felt sorry or cared for the girl though, as i felt she did not deserve the guy who had been trying to make something of his life to impress her for 7 years. so, in summation, though it is a decent film (especially if you are trying to get in good with a girl), it is no You've Got Mail -- end of story

on the other hand, Barbershop was our weekly racial reconciliation flick. it had an all star black cast and was pumped full of stereotypes and such like you would expect from such a film. with no real dramatic plot to speak of, it still faired well as it was just a day in the life of some people going through some times -- one of those kinda movies. in my opinion it is what happened when a black screenwriter watched steel magnolia's too many times. it took a few times cause you know the first couple times he was only paying attention to one thing, like the rest of us... dolly pardon, hehe. j/k anyways, point being, it had it's funny moments, but mostly i felt that i would have enjoyed it more if i were black. i am not sure why -- maybe i am just too lame to get that kind of comedy. ok, i am...

ah, the rockbridge post...

stuff that indeed "ROCKed" at Rockbridge...
- the fact that the guitar player kinda looked like john mayer (in a make fun of john mayer kinda way)
- john mayer lead a new praise song that no one had heard before that sounded a lot like "Birmingham" by nate edge, or a cheap knock off
- the fact that we were really creeped out the activity guy was ryan kee's clone
- the worship leader who looked and sounded like dave chappelle
- the danny wulff clone... cept more insecure
- the fact that i reminded this one girl of a stalker/crazy guy she knows from greensboro named micah; but not cause i was stalking her
- i was able to convince two girls that i had never heard of the mikey of life cereal fame
- the fact that everyone looked like someone, or reminded somebody of something

on a more serious note... slightly... ok, not really...
- i had THE BEST small group EVER! kristie, chris, adam, rachel, brooke, lindsay, megan, carolyn, and jennifer rokked my face off!!!
- prayer and getting into God's word are the ways that allow the Holy Spirit to work in your life :-)
- instead of being like the good cabin of guys who bonded by praying when they woke up and before they went to bed, we bonded by talking about "da butt"
- ryan from UNCW thought we were cool even though we were always talking about "da butt"
- special guest appearance by All FoR Love!!!
- listening to brooks say basically anything we told him to
- listening to brooks stories of these two girls macking on him
- danny and i trying to figure out who number two worked for more
- finding matt, nate, and brooks REALLY working on their "retreat of silence"
- i read the book of Daniel... good book
- chapter time encouragement: i am so pumped for next year!
- the sky's reflection on the lake at night
- the fact that i got to meet new and interesting people and build relationships and love and pray for them :-)
- and uh... since connie is like the only one who reads this... i think it was most awesome cause she went! hehe...

that's about it... there was WAY more... but i can only say "da butt" so many times in one post. find me, ask me, love me... i will be more than happy to tell you how it all went down. it was truly an eye opener for a person who thought his eyes were fairly wide to begin with. God is so awesome, thank Him :-)

wfu2130: yes i have come back from the abyss
KngPolystr: last time i saw you we were fighting side by side in the orient
wfu2130: oh the horror....soaken wet, they had us pinned into a fox hole with nothing but some cigs and our .45's...
KngPolystr: too bad we ran out of ammo
KngPolystr: we had to kill those ninja's with our bare hands and use their swords to cut through the entire communist division
KngPolystr: so many little slanty eyed heads rolling on the ground around us
KngPolystr: it was enough to make you want to write an emo song
wfu2130: good thing u remembered how to make an explosive device out of a rag, a toothpick, and some dirt....or we'd never gotten out of there
wfu2130: indeed
KngPolystr: don't forget the bubble gum...
wfu2130: ah yes the bubble gum how could i forget
wfu2130: i'll still never understand what a ninja was doing chewing bubble gum
KngPolystr: i'll never understand why he was wearing nikes
wfu2130: well they were the sneaker clan
KngPolystr: they had the oddest emblem's on their sleaves
KngPolystr: who woudl have thought to have a sword cutting through a baby sneaker
wfu2130: those mongrols i still have nightmares
KngPolystr: nightmares... if you weren't there to hold me then i don't think i would have ever made it through the night
wfu2130: yea those "TLC" classes i took at base before we left really came through for me
KngPolystr: i love you...
wfu2130: i cant bring myself to say it....::sniff:: ::sniff::..
KngPolystr: after all this time?
KngPolystr: what has SHE ever done for you?
KngPolystr: has she bled for you!? has she sacrificed!?
wfu2130: well there was that one time when i accidentally stabbed her in the leg with my combat knife...she was waking me up by grabbing my shoulder...it was almost bad...
KngPolystr: you never stabbed me - i should have known you never loved me
KngPolystr:our paths will meet again, and on that day... the truth will be drawn from the well of our souls, and love will be all that is found!


hope you enjoyed this legendary tale...

everyone else: "uh... why's that drew?"
drew: "i mean, they're expiration dates... like... it's supposed to be a date something expires... like, ya know, like, yeah..."

thank you drew... thank you...

It's Friday. I don't have class till Thursday. And then I graduate. Or at least, I cease to attend school for an indefinite amount of time. Life is so great. So many things to look forward to this summer...Rockbridge, Camp Lurecrest, recording demos, going to Six Flags...and this fall is going to be crazy too. I guarantee that if Matt comes to Greensboro it's gonna get slam crazy. I mean, this is the guy who contributed to the invention of at least 30% of the hardcore dance moves. He also has the most diverse tastes in music. But more importantly, he can fool up party down like a wild wild man.
So, let's just say, that the next few months are going to be as up in the air as my cap would be were I to attend my graduation. But since I'm not, we'll just have to envision a cap being flung far to the ends of the earth. In the immortal words of Matt Jeffreys, "It's balls crowded up in this piece." And that's what it will be at the fall housewarming party I am sure.

it's 7:30am, and i apologize not only for not posting the past day or so, but especially to connie for not getting this installment in by her waking hour - i realize i broke your routine. so, 7:30, and it's not because i am waking up - it's because i have stayed up all night. the exact reasons why i have done this are inconsequential unless you are a certain person. irregardless, i would like to reflect on my time awake at night. especialy since i am WAY out of practice staying up all night...

after a wonderful day i returned to my apartment around 11:30, where upon i found a friend in need so immediately i was swept away by the necessity of my heart to comfort. after this i decided that the rain had left just too awesome a feeling in the night to let it go to waste. so, in my attempt at taking advantage of this, i drove over to the front of north spencer where, from about 1-3am, i chatted with the lovely jennifer, the motherly zoe, and the ever spontaneous christie ray. three girls who were more than enough company for a simple man like myself. after this... i found myself diggin in for the night, starting numerous online conversations with fellow all nighters. this was highlighted by my completion of two letters - one to shawn since he is leaving UNCG IV to become a staff worker at CRAPELL hill, and another to a nice couple who has been giving very charitably to IV as of late. so with my good deeds done and conversations grinding to a hault, i think it was about movie time (cerca 4:30am). movie of choice, "John Q". i rented it from mcnutt - it was ok, nothing to write to BLOG about. ater it went off i have found myself randomly looking up info online and beggining conversations with people who are waking up for their morning classes - neat eh?

one positive thing, katy has stayed up all night with me, though she would have been up anyways seeing as how she has insomnia. so madd love for the kansas lady :-) i wish this entry could be funny. it would be if i was kildoo cause i'd be like "ah man, don't listen to me, i am just so tired! i need sleep! i am starting to act all goofy! look at me acting all goofy! i need sleep! *roaring laugh* man, i am getting silly, i know it..." of course add a lot of typical kildoo guestures... like... being tall and stuff and it's an impression done to perfection.

so like i said, sorry i am not creative or funny... all i can give you is my tiredness and too much time in front of this thing tonight. i apologize not only for my mispellings and gramatical errors, but also for the fact that i am too tired to go back and check them!

as always, keepin it real... REAL real... tired...
