it's been a bit.

not too much has been happening. 

i'm working my way towards the end of Irresistible Revolution. 

and getting ready to get heavy into Everything Must Change by Brian McLaren. 

Erwin McManus spoke on the weekend. I really enjoy him, he looks at things so artistically and I catch on to it very easily. He had some really great things to say. Good change to hear a message with no points. Overall, amazing. 

I've been playing guitar a bit more lately, trying to write some new stuff. I just get so frustrated that I keep writing the same stuff over and over. I need to start writing on a new instrument. Like piano. That'd be good. 

Sadly, I didn't get any pictures taken this week. Great goal, Chad. There just really wasn't ANYTHING going on. Tomorrow is Cinco De Mayo here and I'm pretty stoked. We are having a kind of mexican party with enchiladas, tacos, and possibly churros, of which Mama Ginny and DaDa introduced me to! They are delisssshhhhh.  Speaking of Cinco De Mayo, I made a deal with Diego, my Guatemalan housemate. I can only talk to him in Spanish from now on, but he can talk to me in English. I figured why not practice some Spanish! I'm pretty stoked on it. I've slipped up a couple times, and talked in English, but I've been trying to get some Spanish going on. 

I've been in prayer loads lately for my cousin Hannah and it's great to hear that God is moving in that situation. 

I've been getting really stoked on getting in the studio for October. It's going to be good being able to put EVERYTHING we have into this full-length and to be able to focus solely on it without any distractions. I want to leave starved of my creativity, completely exhausted, but so proud of what we have put together. I think it will be something new for this whole scene. I really earnestly do. Lyrically, I am giving it everything I have in me.
