So I have now been up since 10am on Sunday and it is now 1am on Tuesday. I have to go to bed. School really has been kicking my tail the last few days. I am getting all of my work done it just takes me forever to do it.  I guess it will all pay off in a few days. I am for sure going to Scotland so that is a big deal. Please pray that I find the money to go. We had our ATO banquet on Sunday and I was voted the best member of my pledge class so I am totally excited about that, but even more importantly I can't wait to see were I am going to serve next year in the fraternity. ATO has really changed my life. It has taught me alot fo things. I could devinitly go on for hours about how I am a greater person just for pledging and learning how to follow the principles of ATO, but I am tired right now so hopefully if you know me it is evident in the way I live.  Well i am ready to be home. Can't wait to just see all of my friends. All of my High School guys are graduating. I LOVE YOU GUYS! I'll be praying for you, cherish these last few weeks.  So yes I am just writing ever random thing that pops in my head so I am going to bed now. Have a wonderful week!

So today I walk into the campus ministry office to see my friendly campus ministers. I went in one of their offices which was my friend Christy. We just started talking about what I wanted to do with my major and different stuff like that. A little bit later she told me that last night she was praying about the mission trip she was leading to Scotland this summer. While she was praying I poped into her head. So she felt like she was suppost to ask me to go. So I told her i would pray about it and talk to my parents. I thought about it non stop for the next few hours. About half way through the day I went to meet with one of my advisors about a class that I have to take next semester. We started talking about the trip and he told me that the teacher that is coming on staff to teach that class is moving from the same area of Scotland that I am going. I'm not trying to say that was a sign that I am suppose to go it just shows how much i could not get away from thinking about Scotland. One of the most amazing parts is that I am not really having selfious reasonings for going. Sure I want to go to this beautiful place, fly for the first time, go out of the country for the first time, and play on the first golf course ever. However, I can honestly say that my focus has been on the mission their all day. I can't get passed the impact that a similar trip like this one change Christy's life. So I say all that to say I think that I am going to Scotland for 8 days at the end of July.

So I haven't had an entry in a long time. Alot of stuff has been going on. I finally got iniciated into my Fraternity on the 17th. Alpha Tau Omega is the name of it. Not much else has been going on besides the ATO and the regular school stuff. I'm ready to get home and see all of my friends. I really have no idea what I'm doing this summer. I think I might be working at a church towards Booneville. Other than that I will be looking for a job, playing some golf, and hanging out with the guys. I feel bad because my parents keep calling and telling me how much they miss me.  I can only take so much of that before i feel horrible. Lately I have really been missing my friends from back home. I haven't talk to anyone except Ferro, Grant, and Brandon since Spring Break. ( it is really started to catch up with me)

My thoughts have been really crazy today. It is just one of those days when I sit back and I'm like how did I GET HERE! I think of every little intrecate thing that God has directed me through.  If my parents wouldn't have started me to school early when i was 4 years old honestly my entire life would have been different. I know I still wouldn't be good at sports even if I would have been a grade younger ( as aubrey says "you just don't have that kind of cordination, leave it to grant") But seriously I challange you to sit down this week and think about how different your life would be if you change only one major part of your life. I would not have had the same friends, oppertunities, I might not be at this school, my major might be different, I might not be with Aubrey, and the differences could go on for a lifetime. It really makes you think How Great Our God Is. He has a plan for each and every one of us before we were BORN. I just can't fathom that kind of love and attention. The King of all the Universe cares to be so intamate with me that he knew me before i was even in the womb. He takes the time to focus on my future and ever interaction I deal with throughout any given day. He has intricately placed the most amazing people and oppurtunites in my life just like he was molding clay .

Again I challenge you to look at how God has molded even the unique and almost forgotten aspects of your life that would completely change who and where you are.

Well bed time guys, i love ya

hey guys sorry that i haven't updated in a week. i went home for spring break and my computer at home sucks so i kinda forgot about it. well i had a great time at home. i got to lead in worship on wed. and on tues i spent some quality time with my wonderful friends at Ark Tech. i miss them so much they are the best group of friends in the world. i'm not going to bore you by telling you everything i did all weekend but the best thing all week was the camp out that me, grant, and michael scott had. i really needed to just sit around the camp fire and talk about life and joke around with the guys. i think that it was one of the best nights that we have spent together. except for maybe operation skunk. i think i can say that since the guy that the opperation went done on alrady knows. if you want more details just ask. oh yeah and by the way all three of us guys slept in a 2 person tent that was quit the experience. well i guess i am glad to be back at school. i do miss my friends and family alot when i am here. well i'm still really struggling with some things it is nothing really bad but it mainly has to do with missing everyone and ms. barbara. i know that i don't talk about it much but i have a really really hard time with her death. i wish that some how some way that it would have ever happened. everytime i take a trip, everytime i see a semi i can't do anything but think about her. i know that sounds stupid. i know that i shouldn't be the one having such a hard time with it. Grant should. i mean she was only my second mom. Grant my best friend in the world lost his mom i just feel dumb being the one that is stuggling when he seems ok. anyway... enough of the sad stuff i can't wait to see my friends and to hang out all summer. i hope that everyone has a wonderful spring break . love you guys

alright so yesterday dave hunt which is total my mentor asked me to go to this christian conference with him this weekend. i was so excited i will get to hang with him and all of the guys from the refuge band the whole weekend. dave just released a new cd and i will help him sell that and help the band and with whatever. the conference is going to have 12,ooo students at it so it should be an awesome experience. i am sad that i am not going home earlier but it is too great of an experience to skip over. you should get online and order the cd you can get it on www.davehunt.net it is awesome i have listened to it like a thousand times. it is so flippin awesome.....

so enough of that...i am so so so so excited about the CREW...if you haven't heard me talking about it is a CHRISTIAN REVOLUTION that has just begun in Greenwood AR throught a group of some of the most awesome young men of God i have ever meet, and i'm not just saying that because they are my best friends, over the past week i have heard so much about it even thought i  am in Tennessee....my whole weekend started with my spended the night with ryan on thursday when i got home. me and ferro talked until 2 or 3 in the morning about how we are ready to see a change in the hearts of people in Greenwood...over the duration of a few hours we said everything in the world about what we wanted to see happen for Jesus in G-WOOD. we did everything but spell out R.E.V.O.L.U.T.I.O.N ,but little did me know that God had something in store for the youth of FBC Greenwood that will change Greenwood forever. the Christian Revelotion has begun i am so excited to say that it is going to last. there is no roller coaster actions going on this year. nothing but the real deal. making a mark for christ. well i am so pumped.

 i ask everyone to pray for the CREW- pray that the CREW will live the life that they have devoted to GOD, pray that it will grow and that the loving and miraculous hands of Jesus Christ will take care and guide the actions of the CREW.

peace out in the name of CHRIST
