I woke up this morning, watched Mrs. Doubtfire, Tropic Thunder, and then the original Star Wars. After that, I watched half of Hairspray, uploaded chapter 9 of Across the Universe, and then went to go see Ice Age 3. Then I came home and watched Episode I of Star Wars.
Highlights of my day.
Both Star Wars movies, putting up the new chapter, and getting four new posters from FYE (Star Wars, True Blood, Wolverine, and Half-Blood Prince).

From my blog.
Let me begin by saying that I am not a Christian. I don't consider myself to be one, anyway, and not just because I've never been an avid church-goer. I don't proclaim myself as a non-Christian because I think it's cool or because I'm trying to go against the flow. I simply say I am not a Christian because I feel that I have never really accepted Christ as my Saviour.
But, to continue: Saturday, I left the incomparable Camp Ozark for the last time. Well, the last time as a camper, anyway. If I do go back, it'll be as an L.I.T. (Leader in Training), and then as a counselor after that. At this point in my life, though, I can't see that happening.
Camp Ozark has been a part of my life since I was ten years old. I've spent two weeks of every summer there for the past eight years, growing as a person, and always coming home on a huge religious high, always saying to myself, "Okay, this is the year you become a Christian. Learn more about Christ, and accept Him as your Saviour. You can do it."
Except just as quickly as the high comes, it wears away.
This year, it didn't come at all.
Maybe it was the changes in the atmosphere this year. A ton of traditions have changed, or simply aren't traditions any more. It's almost as though everything I ever loved about camp was gone. For whatever the reason, I just didn't come home on the big Jesus Kick that I usually do, and even came home feeling a little put-out with the whole Christianity idea.
But why?
Some of it seems so far-fetched, I guess -- but that could be said for any religion or set of beliefs, and that's where the whole concept of "faith" comes in, doesn't it -- believing in the unbelievable?
