A few thoughts

I've been meaning to write about some things for awhile, but I don't think they deserve their own posts, so I'm combining them on to one.

1. Act your age

So I haven't had much luck in relationships with girls my age even if we're just friends I never really get that close to them or I eventually say or do something really stupid and is tarnishes our friendship, but surround me with females not close to my age and I'm a stud. I work in one of the dining commons on campus and I work with some older ladies. Some of then are in their 40s and some are older than my mom, but every time I work with them they tell me how much they love me and that I'm the best. Seriously. I was having lunch with a friend of mine and I went to say hi to one of ladies I work with, and as I'm walking away she says to one of the people she was working with "he's the best." There's also half a bus of middle school girls who think I'm the greatest thing in the world, but I'll save that story for later. Even any minor success I've had with any type of relationships with girls close to my own age has come with girls a couple years older or younger than me.

2. It's good to be king

So I'm taking a racquetball class this semester. I came into it just hoping to have fun and get better. After the first two days I thought I would be close to the top ten of the class, but it turns out that I'm probably the best player in the class. One day in class the instructor wanted to demonstrate how to referee a game, so he said he would pick two of the best players in the class, so that everyone else can watch and learn how to ref. Well, he picked me and some other guy, and I beat him 11-0. after that there was definitely a feeling of new found respect. I only talked to a couple of people in the class before that day. Most people didn't really care to get to know anyone else in the class, but after that day almost everyone remembers my name and acknowledges my presence whether in class or if they see me around campus. A while ago someone asked me what my proudest moment was,and I really didn't have an answer, but this might be it. I know I'm not really that good, but maybe I need to play someone who is really good to humble myself a little.

3. Tattoos

I've decided that I might get tattoos at some point in my life, and I know what they'll be. On the back of my left arm I'll put : החין של אלוהים (God's grace). And on the back of my right arm I'll put: הפאר של אלוהים (God's glory).

Because of his grace and for his glory.
