I'm Still Alive

Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. I just haven't gotten around to it. Let's see......The rest of the ministry went the same as when I first described it(in detail) so I won't go too into that today.
This is Roberta's house with a wall up.   Ain't it purty? (even though I couldn't help much-what with my sprained ankle and all.)
 
Who are they? I dunno. I think they're her daughters, but I'm not sure. All I know is they're friendly, they were obsessed with Sawyer's red hair,(they said he was pretty) and their English is way better than my Spanish. They were really happy for the extra room and shade, cause it was really hot.
All of these houses are built on car tires and perilous cliffs. We didn't get to finish-(more work for Village 2) but it was really awesome. It was touching when Roberta said(in a translated conversation) that she was thankful we made her house bigger, because then, we could stay at her house the next time we came to Mexico! Course, there's no way you're fitting twenty of us into that house, but it was touching nontheless.

The soccer ministry went the same.
Let's play a game. It's called, Spot Roberta's House From The Cliff Photos.

Can you find it?

  
 

Izzhere. And those long, dusty looking cliff roads are as dangerous as they look(sprained ankle, remember.) It's scary watching cars drive up and down those.  I was kinda freaked out. (Unlike Meredith, a Village 2-er, who rode a Big Wheel down one of those roads, more on that later.)


See y'all!

What pictures do you use for your computer wallpaper?(tell me in comments) This is my current one:

three amazing--and relatively little known--psalms

So I'm reading Psalms in the Bible right now. Well, Psalms is one of the three places I read from. I'm reading the Bible all the way through and read two chapters from three places--the Old Testament, the middle of the Old Testament, and the New Testament--every day. I'm in Deuteronomy and Romans in the other sections, but in the middle I'm still right where I started from-Psalms. Cause Psalms is really really long. I was getting kind of tired of Psalms(which isn't really the right attitude to be reading the Bible in). But I realized there are some really breathtaking passages in Psalms, and I'm glad I read them. These are my three favorites: *Buck Forester on Flikr Psalm 65 This one is about God's spectacular creation. What mighty praise, O God,      belongs to you in Zion. We will fulfill our vows to you, 2       for you answer our prayers.      All of us must come to you. 3  Though we are overwhel...

Howl's Moving Castle book analysis

“I feel ill. I'm going to bed, where I may die.” ― Howl, upon having a cold. I've decided to call them "book analysis" because they're not really reviews that tell you how much I liked the book, rather,  me taking the book apart and looking at different aspects of it for my own entertainment. Read on. Also, read Howl's Moving Castle. This is the original cover of Howl's Moving Castle and I have got to say it is the UGLIEST thing I have ever seen. I like the new one much better. Ahem. First of all, I should point out that Howl's Moving Castle is a children's book. However, I like to hold all books I read to the same standard, after all, they're written by adults. I had biased expectations of Howl's Moving Castle from the start, because I kept hearing from several sources how amazing, how fantastic, how hilarious and how romantic the book was, and hearing the perfectly gorgeous soundtrack by Joe Hizazi(somethin...

Her Universe

  Before I start, let me just say this. I appreciate what Ashley Eckstein is doing. It's obvious she really cares about and is enthusiastic about her line, and she's using her position to make our days(and wardrobes, apparently) a little more cheerful. However, I don't think Her Universe is the huge movement she expects it to be. The website   talks about how female SW fans have a hard time finding merchandise designed "just for us" and the trials of having to wear either "very girly stuff" or "men's stuff in small sizes."   This post from Club Jade clearly favors and is enthusiastic of Her Universe. Vivenne's comment,(the 6th) says everything more eloquently than I ever could. "However, it’s NOT our turn. We’re NOT getting what they’ve got. I STILL don’t wear Star Wars franchise stuff because there is no way I can afford Her Universe. $30 for a TEE SHIRT? No. No no no. I’ll keep buying the $9.99 shirts for g...
