    Eminem haters unite

    *cough* KJ-52 is NOT talented, and is certainly not anywhere near the level of skill as someone like eminem. I can't stand listening to his stuff... it is not well done at all. I could write better raps than KJ-52 (and that's saying a lot! lol).

    Eminem haters unite

    the message he sends out is horrible? hm... it's really hard to understand what you could mean by his message. he sings out of his own pain and anger in life. it's raw, real emotion. i think that too many christians attempt to protect themselves from those kinds of emotions, and i think that...

    When I grow up, I want to be....

    Isn't the same compassion required for mission work, or any type of full-time ministry?? Much compassion is acquired on the job. If you are lacking, volunteer in the inner city for awhile. That can cure just about anyone of apathy. I could tell you stories that would break your heart...

    Breaking up is hard to do

    Oh I tried and nothing worked. Many times we tried to hash out our problems and during one such time I had actually said to him, "If we can't figure out how to be friends without hurting each other, and have a healthy friendship, then what are we doing? Why not just let it go?" And he reacted...

    When I grow up, I want to be....

    Nope. I don't have a degree in social work. An arts degree is helpful if you're lacking the social work degree. But what got me my first job in the field was simply volunteer experience. I have a ton of that. If you have volunteer experience and are an open, likeable person who won't get...

    Sharing Bodily Fluid is OK

    I used to do it regularly--I've donated 12 times altogether. But now they won't let me because I work in a high-risk environment (name an STD and one of my clients probably has it...). :(

    Just what are you?

    woah, look at all the introverts! I've taken the test several times over a number of years and I always get the same result: ENFJ. It is quite accurate, though I do have tendencies towards ALL of the types. :)

    When I grow up, I want to be....

    I just got transfered/promoted so my job has changed within the past week, although the two are closely related. My old one was working in a home with teen girls involved in prostitution. Now I am in a different home, but with adult homeless women (whether that be due to prostitution...

    Breaking up is hard to do

    I think you may be right that girls can be colder in this, but I don't think you have the reasons right. Speaking as a girl who has had to cut off a beloved friendship within the past year (for very good reasons!), I can say this: it is extremely difficult to do such a thing slowly or halfway. I...

    Milestones/Big events

    In May I bought a new car (my first new one... I had 5 used ones prior to that and was sick of car repairs!). Just last week I started my new job/position (it was a transfer/promotion, so not an entirely new job, and all my benefits transfer right over with me! yay!). It is going well so...

    I'm older than my parents were when they got married.

    my parents were married at 18 and divorced at 22. I am now 26 and am SO glad that I did not do the same thing. In fact, ALL the women in my family (literally ALL of them) were married young and/or having babies young and they are ALL divorced now. Not a pattern that I'd like to follow! Age...

    Evil Disney?

    You don't like Shrek??? Honestly, the worldviews in a movie like shrek are far more positive and less subversive than in *many* disney movies. Who didn't love the message about beauty?

    Night Driving

    I LOVE night driving. Throw some Curious Fools into the stereo and I'm set. I also love city driving. And city driving at night. (Am I weird or what) Actually I just love driving. The only kind I don't like is when it's blizzarding and/or the roads are icy. I used to adore driving in the...

    I will not let my little ones watch the MTV

    I certainly wouldn't let children watch it. And I do agree that it is morally impoverished. HOWEVER. It is the reality of youth culture, and our kids are going to be surrounded by it no matter what we do. And so for older teens I would advocate that instead of banning things altogether, we...

    Changing plans

    Absolutely nothing in my life is as I had imagined when I was growing up. But it is wonderful and I am happy--wouldn't trade it for anything. It really is true that God is able to bless us beyond all that we can ask or imagine. :)
