If you're reading this, and you happen to know me personally, you need to fill this out.
Ready, set, go!
1. Describe me. You get five words. 2. What do you think is my greatest gifting/strength? 3. What do you think is my greatest weakness/blindspot? 4. Where do you expect you'll find me in five years? 5. If you had to give me a unique nickname, what would it be and why?
I leave for my summer mission trips in eight days! So, I've set up a proper missions update list. If you'd like to receive updates from the field, please sign up at http://www.integridesign.com/missions
so, if you're a myspace user and you're sick of all the lame people, and/or of the disgusting advertising, be sure to check out Xians.com. honestly I think it's better than myspace. plus it's a Christian-focused community. but you need an invite code to get an account... ...so here's one for all my friends! enjoy!
congratulations to you! for all my dedicated journal readers out there, you get to have a sneak peak. "at what??!" you might ask. [and if you don't ask, boo on you.] "at my upcoming website," said I. you see, I spent most of last night [and also most of today] making a pretty phatty site. I happen to like it a whole lot. so if you're a big fan of sneak peaks... ...or even if you're not... ...you should go check it out. the banner is loaded randomly. it draws from a pool of 41 of my best pictures. some of them are extra phatty. just beware... it's in testing mode right now. not everything will work. in fact, the only thing working is the news. and even then, it's being tested as well. so watch your step. and let me know what you think.
If you are a good friend of mine, I need a list of your prayer requests. If you're not sure if you're a good friend, just give me your requests anyway. I've set this entry to screen all comments, so that no one else sees yours. So, leave your prayer requests here so that I can stand with you. Jesus got on me about having an actual list... so here I go.
due to the wonders of technology, you can now email me whenever you want. to catch me whilst I'm on the road, or whenever I might not be at my computer, just email my moblie email address... davidmobile[at]teenmania[dot]ca kbye.
I thought this was pretty cool. go here. enter your name, and post your results as a comment. or else in your own journal. my result was the following:
David Beloved : Hebrew
You are an inspiring leader whose originality, creativity and wisdom are applied to creating practical solutions to "unsolvable" problems. Humanitarian and idealistic, your vision is to make the world a better place and you will work to this end. Hardworking and tenacious people admire you for your honesty and integrity. You are a loved and loyal friend and partner.
You have the potential to achieve enormous success in the world.
and now for my middle name...
William Resolute protector : Teutonic Honest, dependable and practical you tend to have a fairly conservative but determined approach to life. Your intelligence and wisdom means that you are sought out for guidance and advice. Gifted in communication you are philosophical and intuitive and are usually a traveller both mentally and physically. People respect you for your patience, discretion and integrity.
so after a bunch of last minute scrambling for rides... I'm goin to Detroit for the weekend! yay! I'm going to hang out with the Teen Mania Canada staff. and I'm going for the Battle Cry leadership summit. plus I'll get to hang out with my amazing coleader Lauren, from 2004! good times will be had by all. :o)
and in random news...
I found probably the most incredible website. ever. you see, every summer I hear the same argument. every year, I hear bickering, debating and near fist-fighting over one issue: is it called pop? or is it soda? or is it coke? the arguments go on and on. well, someone has used the internet to track who says what and where. so if you're curious about who says what, go check out the statistics on popvssoda.com! it would seem that pop is the clear winner in all of Canada. it also would seem that it's also the clear winner anywhere. but there are also lots of other names that people use. so don't forget to cast your vote, and enjoy! and long live pop! ;o)
Leave your name and: 1. I'll respond with something random I like about you. 2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you. 3. I'll name something we should do together 4. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me (or just me). 5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you. 6. I'll leave you a quote that is somehow appropriate to you 7. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you. 8. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal. You MUST!
I remember who you are... been a long time since we talked though! Sounds like life's been good. When exactly did you get hitched? Any little ones running around yet??
logging in on the old journal on the farflung off chance you both see this and recognize the name... I was that dorky 17-year-old C-tripper on the 2003 peru trip named Evie, who people kept thinking…
