    A church similar to my home church

    Thank you for the suggestions. I think I'm going to try the Evangelical Methodist Church this Sunday and see how it goes.

    A church similar to my home church

    I've been attending college in SW VA for 4 years, and they don't have any churches of my denomination in the area. I was confirmed in, and have attended while at home, a Covenant Church (covchurch.com). I've searched for churches I like here, but I've felt a bit uncomfortable or like I didn't...

    C.T.C - Christian Tattoo Club

    I have one on my upper back. It's a triquetra symbolizing my faith combined with lily of the valley that's a tribute to my mom who passed away.

    Required Reading You Actually ENJOYED!!

    Educating Esme by Esmé Raji Codell. I had to read it for my principles of education class my freshman year of college and I absolutely loved it. I liked most of the other books we read too though...I just can't recall their names.

    Rush - Thinking about going Greek?

    I know rushing doesn't necessarily cost money, but if I decide to pledge there are pretty high costs of dues. I'll definitely let you know though.

    Rush - Thinking about going Greek?

    I've been thinking about rushing, but I'm pretty sure it won't happen mainly because of financial issues. I know several Christians who have rushed various fraternities or sororities and it has gone well for them. One of our sororities has a pretty high ratio of Christians who are in it, and...

    Religions of your roommates/suite-mates...

    I agree with those who have said to ask her about it. One of my closest friends who is also my roommate is Wiccan. We get along just fine because we're never accusatory or anything like that about each others religion. It does open up some pathways for some pretty interesting conversations...

    I love you

    I generally tell people on a regular basis. It's usually directed towards my family or close friends, but depending on who the people are and how I know they'll take it, I'll expand beyond that.

    Do you play MMORPGS

    I used to play Well of Souls and SilkRoad Online for a while. Not sure if those really count since they don't really seem like your "traditional" MMORPGs sometimes

    Have You Told Them?

    I really wish I could learn to be that forward to a guy that I'm crushing on. There's a boy that I like right now who is in InterVarsity (Christian group on campus) with me, but I'm too nervous to even ask him to a semi-formal dance that's going on this Friday. We'll see though, I still have...

    Is there anybody else...?

    1.) I have never drank alcohol. I have twice, but I didn't get drunk either time. 2.) I have never smoked tobacco*. I never have either, nor smokeless tobacco. Not only do I think it's disgusting, but I would probably end up in the hospital with my asthma. I can't even deal with second hand...

    Where do you live?

    Hartford. guess I'm the only CT person so far. Actually, I'm closer to some other cities, but Hartford is the main one. I'm about 15 minutes south. And for school I'm right outside Roanoke, Virginia.

    Stripping Hair Colour?

    Thanks to everyone who's been leaving comments. I did end up going to a professional stylist. She didn't want to strip my hair and dye it blonde though because if all the red didn't come out, I'd be stuck with orange tinted hair. So, instead she did heavy highlighting with a colour that was...

    Stripping Hair Colour?

    Sorry if there's another thread on this, but I searched and wasn't able to find anything. I've been dyeing my hair aubun for a while now, but never with permanent dye. I use a level 2 semi-permanent from Clairol. The only problem is, even after the 28+ washes, it won't wash out because my...
