I'd like to make a formal WTF submission to all the ladies out there.
-We meet.
-We enjoy each other's company.
-We flirt.
-We go out on a date.
-We hold hands.
-We talk on the phone into the wee hours of the morning.
-She decides she doesn't want to talk to me anymore because she's not ready for another guy and she's stuck thinking about someone else.
Remember that prediction? I'm tempted to go back and delete it. Screw girls.
I really shouldn't be angry or surprised at this, but I honestly thought this was seriously something wonderful, and I've been praying about it, and getting nothing but good feedback from everyone involved.
I really can't tell you how excited I was at finding a wonderful, beautiful, Godly, funny, intelligent girl who actually noticed me being alive.
...or how disappointed I am now.
To anyone reading this, please don't think I'm an emotional teenager. I'm really not. I'm not lovesick, and I'm not normally upset at all, but this is disappointing. And if you know Laura, I'm not trying to get down on her, she's a wonderful girl, but she's another wonderful person who doesn't really care much for me.
RANTING ENDS HERE.
In other news, I amazingly enough took first place in the Orlando City Taekwondo Tournament, with a wonderful match against Chris Courington, who I've had the pleasure of sparring many times before, in the championship round. 10-4 me. That brings our total tally to my 3 wins against his 2. FTW.
Vault Youth Group had a game night on friday, and I realized how well I know my friends when we played a game of taboo. I can practically read their minds. We have so much background, anything the card says we have some way of communicating it. I love my friends. We ended up just watching a few episodes of (yesss) Arrested Development!
My thoughts generally tend to take some strange form, like Ron Howard narrations, or recently I've been thinking about thoughts in the form of texting someone about it. Normally that person was Laura. Craaap. This sucks.
You know when you burn your hand, it hurts a little bit, but the real painful part is sitting there thinking Oh, wow, I'm going to be feeling this one for weeks. That's my girl situation right now.
I'm not unlikable.

Morning -noun: The period extending from dawn until noon.
Night -noun: The period between evening and dawn.
Therefore, 5AM "morning" practice is a paradoxical contradiction.

Polyphasic
Polyphasic sleep cycles apparently work really really well, for some people, even getting less than 3 hours of sleep at a time. I'm considering trying a Da Vinci type cycle of power naps. The only thing is, I'm not sure how that will be affected by swimming. Da Vinci didn't put out quite this much energy.
...Also, I worry about falling asleep at the wheel.
Hmmm... I'll keep you posted.

I've been praying to meet her for a long time...
...the funny thing is, I always imagined her being Australian.
Yep. I asked her out. Not as a relationship, but on a date.
Wish me luck.

Predictions.
I'm going to use this entry to predict what'll happen in my life, and years later, I'll hope to look at it down the road.
I predict a relationship with Laura Bacia, previously mentioned but unnamed in this blog. I've been praying for a good long while for someone to come into my life that had similar views that I did. I'm not trying to make this into some "fated to be together" rant or anything, but she might be who God prepared for me at this point in my life.
I predict I will be making DVDs for rental communities as a primary source of income for the next few years. I'm finally almost done with high school, and I need to start using my gifts.
I predict that I will make movies. This is what I love. This is what God seems to be steering me towards. Whatever college I go to, or whatever road leads me there, I firmly believe I was meant to make movies. I want to make movies that appeal to a Christian audience, which is VASTLY untapped in movies today. I want to make This Present Darkness into a movie. My good friend Andy Pace showed me a project he made using an old copy of 3Dmax, and it smacked of themes in TPD. Maybe I'll find it again and put it up on here.
Andy won't ever read this most likely, but Andy, Thank You.
This is really actually very cool. I went from totally my plan, 18 months ago, (Naval Academy, Fighter pilot, and so on...) to God allowing my eye to be injured, and giving me all the tools I need and all the people I need to know to move toward... whatever I'm moving toward. (TPD? I hope?)
The thing is, I hated all that stuff happening. I still hate the fact that I'm just finishing high school as I'm almost twenty years old, but I'm moving somewhere. God is steering, all I have to do is paddle.
