it's not that easy being green
having to spend each day the color of the leaves
when i think it could be nicer, to be red or yellow
or gold or something much more colorful like that

it's not that easy being green
it seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
and people tend to pass you over, cause you're not standing out
like flashy sparkles in the water,
or stars in the sky

but green is the color of spring,
and green can be cool and friendly-like
and green can be big like an ocean, or important like a mountain,
or tall like a tree

when green is all there is to be
it could make you wonder why, but why wonder why, why wonder?
i am green, and it'll do fine
i think it's what i want to be

And then there was chapel with the abortion pro-life speaker! Today there was this guy who spoke, and he spoke out against abortion. Now get this. He had no fear in speaking against abortion. Now guess what, if i were to speak out against abortion, or include that in my voting decision process, i would be dismissed and complained about by people who would call abortion a minor deal. I would be told to broaden my mind and focus on the important issues, like international justice, or the rights of the black people. Well what the heck. Holy crap. There's the rights of the unborn, i mean seriously. I mean, i'm not even DOING anything about abortion, but some people just gasp when they hear that i waste my time on it so to speak.

So anyways. There was that in chapel. It was really powerful. And this morning Gordon and I ran a mile, then the rest of the day was really cool, we learned about the Persian wars, and the sweet sweet Battle of Marathon, and all the classes were cool. Then it was like a half hour, oh by the way, Matt Ford gave me my keys a few days ago. And then there was the Drew Hall Rent-A-Man, where we really raked it in. Jenn and her room eventually won me, so i have to rearrange their room for 3 hours, or whatever. Then after a half-hour i worked from 4pm to midnight (egh), and so i'm a little tired and i just wanna close my eyes, and Chels accidentally made me think it was Saturday night going on Sunday, and i was like "noooo!" inside, but phew.. and i missed a Jazz concert i think.

And then there was Audrey, boy is she ever 'fun' to work with. Bah. It's like Aaron Huba all over again, gosh. I wonder how the old boy's doing, anyway.. a while ago he'd gotten sick REAL bad. Not sure what he's up to now. :-( ... He really wasn't that bad. And neither is Audrey. but oh well. And then Blake told me how to config my computer so my network problem is gone, and i can Remote-Desktop. So that's cool. And i dunno, i wanna go to bed. But then there's my ROOMMATES. Bah.
