What I Learned at Church Camp

Leviticus 15: Concerning Bodily Discharges

~*~1The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying: 2Speak to the people of Israel and say to them:
When any man has a discharge from his member,a his discharge makes him ceremonially unclean. 3The uncleanness of his discharge is this: whether his memberb flows with his discharge, or his memberc is stopped from discharging, it is uncleanness for him. 4Every bed on which the one with the discharge lies shall be unclean; and everything on which he sits shall be unclean. 5Anyone who touches his bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 6All who sit on anything on which the one with the discharge has sat shall wash their clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 7All who touch the body of the one with the discharge shall wash their clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 8If the one with the discharge spits on persons who are clean, then they shall wash their clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 9Any saddle on which the one with the discharge rides shall be unclean. 10All who touch anything that was under him shall be unclean until the evening, and all who carry such a thing shall wash their clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 11All those whom the one with the discharge touches without his having rinsed his hands in water shall wash their clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 12Any earthen vessel that the one with the discharge touches shall be broken; and every vessel of wood shall be rinsed in water.
13 When the one with a discharge is cleansed of his discharge, he shall count seven days for his cleansing; he shall wash his clothes and bathe his body in fresh water, and he shall be clean. 14On the eighth day he shall take two turtledoves or two pigeons and come before the LORD to the entrance of the tent of meeting and give them to the priest. 15The priest shall offer them, one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make atonement on his behalf before the LORD for his discharge.
16 If a man has an emission of semen, he shall bathe his whole body in water, and be unclean until the evening. 17Everything made of cloth or of skin on which the semen falls shall be washed with water, and be unclean until the evening. 18If a man lies with a woman and has an emission of semen, both of them shall bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening.
19 When a woman has a discharge of blood that is her regular discharge from her body, she shall be in her impurity for seven days, and whoever touches her shall be unclean until the evening. 20Everything upon which she lies during her impurity shall be unclean; everything also upon which she sits shall be unclean. 21Whoever touches her bed shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 22Whoever touches anything upon which she sits shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening; 23whether it is the bed or anything upon which she sits, when he touches it he shall be unclean until the evening. 24If any man lies with her, and her impurity falls on him, he shall be unclean seven days; and every bed on which he lies shall be unclean.
25 If a woman has a discharge of blood for many days, not at the time of her impurity, or if she has a discharge beyond the time of her impurity, all the days of the discharge she shall continue in uncleanness; as in the days of her impurity, she shall be unclean. 26Every bed on which she lies during all the days of her discharge shall be treated as the bed of her impurity; and everything on which she sits shall be unclean, as in the uncleanness of her impurity. 27Whoever touches these things shall be unclean, and shall wash his clothes, and bathe in water, and be unclean until the evening. 28If she is cleansed of her discharge, she shall count seven days, and after that she shall be clean. 29On the eighth day she shall take two turtledoves or two pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance of the tent of meeting. 30The priest shall offer one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering; and the priest shall make atonement on her behalf before the LORD for her unclean discharge.
31 Thus you shall keep the people of Israel separate from their uncleanness, so that they do not die in their uncleanness by defiling my tabernacle that is in their midst.
32 This is the ritual for those who have a discharge: for him who has an emission of semen, becoming unclean thereby, 33for her who is in the infirmity of her period, for anyone, male or female, who has a discharge, and for the man who lies with a woman who is unclean.~*~

I'M GOING TO VISIT HATTIE!

yaaaaay! i am leaving in the morning (so lets not be shy) for fairhope, on the greyhound, and ill be there at 6. and im not coming home tiiiiiiiiill saturday! *claps!* im happier than a happy thing. now, mind you, sunday i leave for lakeshore, there till NEXT saturday, so WRITE ME. PLEASE.

my name *protects identity!*

eva, TN 38333

you can get eileen there too, only with HER name. most likely i wont see anyone till after lakeshore, and since so many people are leaving end of month, i may not see anyone for the next 500 millenia. ill miss you, but ill love you more if you write to me. im writing to everyone while on the TEN HOUR BUS RIDE to hatties. see, i DO love her. and you. so write me. cmon.

kathrynwhoprobablydoesntreadthis: youd better have taken pictures of that guy. mhm. yknow, the one in Nawlins. okay. im gone

Just a Photograph, Kinda Makes Me Laugh

I absolutely love this picture.

i know its posted on DOY too, but there its art, and here its just... a picture.

i had a really fun day yesterday. for a while i went to spencers and i made him swim even though he didnt want to, and we had burgers. yay. i also talked to 534N on the phone, and he and nathan were both on the line and they were pretending to be each other. "i suck." "no, i suck!" it was a trip and a half. "bruce just keeps telling me how much he sucks!" jolly good time, even though the phone died like twice. we two and em are going to see the day after tomorrow tomorrow. well. probably. we were also supposed to go last monday. and tuesday. and thursday. but i can hope.

the possibility of me getting to go to the shakespeare festival is quite good, though it does rest SOLELY on whether hattie can get her parents down there to let me stay a few days, as ill be taking the greyhound and my parents wont even be in the state. (i loooove you joe and mona!) and i promise not to be annoying.

kathryn went to new orleans. its sad because she called me from there and isnt having a good time at ALL. everyone is all gone and away :( ...duncan and mouse and lena and kathryn and, heck, JUSTIN... whatm i gunna DO for eight weeks with no lena? that girl is like more than half of my social life. i guess ill have to do summer reading.

nah.

ill hang out with lane.

I Don't Care If I'm the Only One

i miss animorphs. i wish i could read the books for the first time again. i wish id gotten to see more episodes of the show. i wish i hadnt recorded a stupid mini-series over the animorphs movie.

if you think im a total loser, you can go die. cause im sad.

*sob* cassie! marco! tobias! ax! rachel! jaaaaaaaaaake!

Bloody Chamber *grumble*

yeah. thursday was my chamber audition. with ms jackson. heres the highlights...

~i did a horrible job
~it lasted an hour and a half
~i didnt warm up. like. at ALL. (this contributed to the me doing a horrible job)
~i had to sing in front of my MOTHER.
~i am now going to take private voice lessons over the summer
~i dont WANT private voice lessons

in short, it was not an overall excellent experience. my novus audition was like, thirty times better. ms jackson is moving from where she lives now to next door to where she lives now next friday. shes paying students to help her move stuff. i was intrigued. yay, gettin paid next friday.

after audition i went to mouses, where morgan and lena already were. the audition had kinda beat up on my day, but it got much better soon. amelia came, we went to MPC, mouses mom treated, which was very nice. everyone but me had alternative, but i dont like it, so i got a calzone like usual and THOROUGHLY enjoyed it. mmm. after we went back and some left there was a comment made that beat up on my day some more, but im much better now AND I LOVE YOU LOADS AND LOADS. DONT WORRY ABOUT IT. I LOVE YOU.

then lena spent the night with me. we went and saw the day after tomorrow with mouse and morgan. it was wikid. go see it. it has donnie darko. i love that kid. and theres a bum with a dog.

then i spent the night with lena. and there was a degrassi marathon on. SIX AND A HALF HOURS OF BLISS. and theres a degrassi marathon on tonight. and im going over to morgans for SIX AND A HALF MORE HOURS OF BLISS. o degrassi. o thirteen. o angst! *sighs and floats away*

And Sara Could Hit All the Low Notes.

yaaay! so i figured out how to have titles. it was randomly disabled on this blog.

today was novus auditions. what funbeans. went over to lenas to practice, then we went to the mall for a few before auditions to chill out, bought some lemonade, which i ended up tossing cause it was too pulpy. *gag* oddly enough, like the whole time i was thinking "gee, i bet shwhitney'll be here" and lo and behold they were. how good am i? the conversation of us and them was all about one minute, then lena and i carried on. we sang in the bathroom. headed on over to CUMC.

williams wasnt even there yet. no one was, in fact, except the girl with the pretty voice whose name is kaitlyn or catelyn or screwitigiveup. there are too many alternate spellings. when he got there screwitigiveup went first, then hannah, then mariana bowen, then lauren huddleston (i called her amanda and didnt notice. then i felt terrible about it), then lena, then rachel o'c, then me. this was the approximate order. i dont remember exactly. so anyway, i went in and sang on my own, he talked about what was different between this and choir at school, nothing i couldnt handle, i sang some scales and helk yeah i could hit all the low notes. i squeaked a bit on the top high note, but man, i think i did pretty dang well. then it was over and we left. i was strangely rejuvinated. im glad i went, and i sure as crapboogers hope i get in.

o yeah, while i was building up my nervousness getting ready to go shwhitney came by and i and they and lena talked and it was fun and they only sat on each other for like a minute. then they left. o how torn i was. they were going to mean girls, and i noticed 534Ns freckle placement reminds me of lindsey lohans freckle placement. extra points for you, drama queen.

after auditions lena and i went back to the mall (we stepped in some tar in the street on the way. sticky shoes!) for subway/chick fil-a and a bubble tea. id never had one before, but i rather liked it, especially the big straw. then lenas mom came and got us in treys car (lena says 534N reminds her of trey in 9th grade. freaky.) she took me home and i called my mom to get ms jacksons number so i could call her to set up my audition for chamber, found out mom'd already covered it. its thursday at 530 or something like that.

moore got in the high school. im so glad. i love that girl.

Ah, the School's Out Post...

i heard about a funny thing. dont remember who told me. look: no more BUllSHit. ahahahaha. its funny. LAUGH DANGIT.

so schools out and i havent posted since whenev. novus auditions are tuesday. im singing on my own and something else, except now its not "i dont have anything to sing," its "i have too many choices." someone talk to me about what to do for 2nd piece. right now nowadays from chicago is winning, but i think i sound pretty good on santa fe too, and there are others. theres also the part where it should be contrasty with the other one. ill get back to you there.

im using half my MiM moneys to upgrade on DP. this makes me extemely excited because ill have a non expiring account and be able to post sound files (if i ever have any) and pictures. woo.

ow. i just pinched myself with my watch. so friday there was this bamboo on the median and dunkan and i were fencing and jousting and contemplating taking up dagger throwing, except the last one was just me. and my bamboo SUCKED and kept breaking in half and it was very robin hood men in tights. especially the part where she thwocked me in the forehead and i fell over. into the river. the grass. whatev. it hurt, and now theres a mark there. again, it hurt. *gets teary* and then i left hatties house, and *sob* NEVER SAW HER AGAIN! *bawls* goddangit. im going to play the incubus song every day. its so pretty and makes me all sniffly and lack of hattie. mostly this part...

You have only been gone
ten days
but already
I am wasting away
I know I'll see you again
Whether far
or
soon
But I need you to know
that I care
And I miss you

its really sweet. you know me and my sad songs. but my darling hattie lent me her irish pride 17 shirt of GOD for the whole summer, and that makes things better. and im starting les mis tonight or in the morning, and that makes things better.

last night i went to the novus concert. people who were there: me, dunkan, amanda, matt, rachel o'c, dickey (why? i guess to see williams), newman (i seriously have not seen him in a year. like, an actual year. its so odd), 534N, lena, sarah hairston, mariana... it goes on and on. and there was The Woman With the Mints. i wanted to kill her face. she got mints out of her purse. loudly. NUMEROUS TIMES. i swear, amanda had to hold me back to keep me from killing. but i woulda done it between songs, because im considerate dangit. PET PEEVE OF THE NOW: any noise during a choir concert thats not the choir. no exceptions. if gabriel damon wants to come and steal me away to Brooklyn while im at a choir concert, he can wait two minutes till the end of the song. thats right. dont even play. hairstons friend ZIPPED HER PURSE wile they were singing *shudder*

on another note, after the concert i hugged all the novus people i knew. this includes: mouse, mercer, moore, coretta, whitney, zach stark (i love that boy. he skips), mr williams, william henry, etc. it still kinda bothers me that the fifth name on this list is on there, but yknow what? we get along. its not my fault. i guess in small doses everythings cool. i took some pictures of everyone and 534N kept trying to beat up my camera but i got a good shot of him anyway, despite the fact that newman and dunkan are in the background and look like theyre about to make out, which theyre not. whitney left a good 15 minutes before we did, and 534N was still there on his cell when we all headed over to raffertys for the after party, which was way fun, even though The Best Cheesecake was actually kinda not excellent. it was okay. i sat with mouse, lena, dunkan, katy sloane and zach stark at a four people table, took pictures of knives and movies of pepper water and mouse killing napkins, stole a fork.

mouses mom took me, dunkan, and lena back to my house, i hugged mouse goodbye and we three who were left went and burned some rainforest incense which, granted, is nothing near cheap red wine incense, but its my third favorite. then we went to bed fairly early, probably before one-ish, and got up to dunkans mom calling saying she'd be here in an hour, so we got up and had cereal or pop tarts or frence vanilla la creme mousse *drools* which is a god in disguise. dunkan left, later lena left, then mom and i went to see sophisticated ladies, which had drew stark and kyle, both of whom i adore,and everyone did rather well. my only complaint was it had no michael a. ingersoll.

when i came home i loaded up my pictures and looked at them for way too long. *sigh*

it was a pretty dang good weekend.

and i dont have to go to school in the morning.

i havent posted on this thing since i changed the thingy. why is my profile and all at the bottom? why has alanna not fixed my comments? why and i not studying for jackson?

i wish there was a way i could know if i was gunna make novus or not. cause if i do i wont NEED school choir. merffff.

i was gunna post about dallas and DC today. nah.

the end.

babes. i dont post real posts anymore, and thats sad. so im going to try really hard to give my lovelies a nice, lengthy, and heck, maybe even interesting post this time. now, whether or not that will actually HAPPEN-- well, lets just cross that bridge when we get to it, shall we?

first thing. heres my classes next year, as far as i know:
geometry
clue
biology (uhg)
gym
latin I
choir
i wasnt going to take choir. i was going to take theatre all four years, but i have OOV and i MIGHT get CT back one day, plus i can still be in drama without taking theatre. also, if i dont make novus ill have no choir whatsoever, and i tried that last year. it was a miserable failure. reading? as a CLASS? *shudder* but art was okay. anyway. moving right along.

this weekend i have to do ubermucho (YES! two languages in one word!) work ahead cause of dallas and DC. i was talking to recycled about the trips and he said he didnt know about dallas but washington sounded like fun. really though, im looking SO forward to dallas it doesnt even resemble funny. seriously, hannah, its in like FOUR DAYS. thats acidic. i need to pack sunday, there wont be time any later.

next: AAAAAH! PRODUCERS! YAAAAY! im happy that next week will be the beginning of such goodness. i only hope i can deal with monday and tuesday at school without exploding. i bet i will. explode. i plan to do monday/tuesdays math tomorrow so i can just chill out after school. o tomorrow. it will be a busy day. but i get a very extended break for rehearsal and the BUST A MOO movie with smurfs of joy. i hope duncan comes. god i dont see her enough. or em. and its sad. i miss my smurfs so freaking hard it doesnt even resemble funny. but duncan most, and em, because ive got lucky thank god rehearing with kathryn and hattie. i miss emma too. and amanda. and sean and anna hasenmueller and lauren reed and mikayla freaking thrash from lakeshore. and ethan. and percy. and ms ward. o reminisce with me. come on and do it already. lets have a nap and dream. and rachel and kristen. i know they go to my school but theyre bloody pacesetters and rachel never talks anymore and i CANT EVER GO HOME WITH KRISTEN because morgan comes home with me every day but fridays and i ADORE morgan but i need my afternoons for kristentime.

that paragraph was supposed to be happy. i swear.

after dallas theres the recupe skitteryday and then washington, which i highly doubt will be as great as dallas but will have one asset that dallas lacks, and that is evan, whom i adore but, contrary to popular belief, do not like "that way," though he is good looking. so not the point. i do wish his parents had let him go to dallas though. o well. i am ever in the awaiting of the busch gardens.

GET THIS. back from washington, THREE WEEKS of school left, and one of them is bbq week. my favorite week ever. im so excited. i want to bring all my friends. when is the our grade picnic? now that i would REALLY like to know. we get three, count em, THREE whole days of non uniforms this year. spring pics, literarymcthing, and the picnic. at least i dont thing we have to wear em for that. o yes, because i remember on picnic day last year whitney had on overalls. i swear. i would make SUCH a good stalker. then matt zilch and i would be working for the SAME GUY, cause you KNOW hes gunna be a rapist. thats right. rapists have employers, theyre just subtle. keep that on tha downlow. lowdown. hodown! PUT THE HO ON THE UPBEAT.

please note that the P.S. in the previous post has been deleted, as it is no longer applicable.

i have nothing to say.

dearest hannah,
first and foremost: HATTIIIIIIIIIIE! im so happy. hatties back, and... YAY! *squeaks with joy* i was listening to that incubus song- I Miss You- ALL BREAK and like, mourning. but now shes back! and she and kathryn and i went to the wizard of oz at playhouse. WOW it was good. MAN. and we went and were stalkers after the show, talked to jimmie and suchness, hatties writing an article for the high school newspaper, but she cant take notes to save her life, so i did, but theyre kinda hard to read. she says she can read them. then we went to secret window. dude. johnny depp. that movie was WICKEDawesome, and only scary for like, a total of four minutes. THEN we went to pizza and square foods and cosmic closet, hattie bought a vegan cookie at SF and kathryn and she liked it, but i didnt. o well. fun times, we had them. okay.

TOMORROW IS MY BIRTHDAY! w00t w00t, i got presents today. flippin awesome new flowy skirt in blues, blue tye dye flarey sleeve shirt, hat, two pairs of earrings, and swing kids and camp! W00T! i need to watch swing kids like a mo. i think christian bales a nazi in it though. ah well.

i still have hatties bracelet. ill give it back to her at ergolytes auditions tomrrow. yay. hattie. oo, i should tell mercer, she wanted me to.

HOLY FREAK. last night i had a dream about frenchie workman. it was so adorable.

but im not gonna tell you about it yet, because im trying to build suspense here, dangit. first i had a dream about a schoolbus with a candy machine that when you hit coin return gave you way too many coins. it was exciting. i hit coin return many times. then i had a dream that wasnt the dream with frenchie workmen but he was in it, and bekky and he and i and some other folks were sitting on the living room floor trying to sing christmas songs and failing royally. THEN i was racing this guy back to the pizza place and even though he went another way and i could fly he still beat me. drat. THEN me and merry, who might have been pippin or maybe drew, but i think it was merry, were running away from this big scary pasty thing/guy that walked funny. and then another thing happened that i remember happening but i dont remember how it happened but i know it did because i had reference to it in the frenchie workman dream which i havent told you about yet because im trying to build suspense here, dangit. aparently in this dream frenchie and i were talking and mom was there and REALLY OLD FASHIONED and wouldnt leave the room, and frenchie and i were kinda annoyed but it was funnyawkward. okay. that was all one dream.

this is the next dream. it was outside lauren reeds house and it was almost dark but not quite. like the darkest it can be without ACTUALLY being dark. yknow. anyway, i dropped all the money that i got from the schoolbus thing-- yeah, my dreams like to refer back to themselves a lot-- and i was picking it up when lo and behold, from across the yard next door walks frenchie workman and some other guy whos clearly not important to the dream. other guy goes inside and then theres a SCENECHANGE. yeehaw. frenchies sitting in a rocking chair in the living room and smiling like the adorable little creature he is. his hairs a bit longer. SCENECHANGE. im talking to my mom about when shes going to ever leave the room when im talking to a guy, she says, after your birthday, IF hes gay, maybe ill let you two walk the dog or something. this makes me angry, but SCENECHANGE. frenchie and i are sitting on lauren reeds pathetic excuse for a porch which is really just four green stairs, moms not there, and we're talking. theres so much talking in this dream. frenchies dialect and/or phraseology are very pretty and mildly shakespearian, but just mildly. even though moms not there he says that maybe we'll get to talk alone since ive grown so much since the last time he saw me.

yknow what? my dreams are on shrooms. but danged if that wasnt just adorable. well it was to ME.

last night i spent it with kristen. we rode bikes, but it was dark and her dad wouldnt let us leave the one street so circles and circles. it was a little cold, we stayed up and rather than saying AWWWWWW kristen said 'o REALLY?' and i was somehow relieved. i left my camera at kathryns house on t'otherdaywhenever. thats sad, but it gives us an excuse to have another thing soon.

what else was i going to say? there was something else. *thinks*

o yes. you people, you ask me about boys, and i dont think i can tell more people. if you didnt hear it straight from me, dont believe it, because there are 3 billion boys in the world, and only one of them is right. Anonymous on mouse's blog thinks he/she knows, and maybe is right. or maybe not. if you know because ive told you, please dont tell people. please? okay. if you really, really, REALLY want to know, you ask me, but dont feel left out if i dont tell you.

o! today kristen and i saw this THING while biking that was either a REALLY LARGE spider or a nut and some grass. we're pretty sure it was a really large spider. ive still got kristens jacket, its so hot.

pantene pro V is a FANTASTIC shampoo. *plays with hair*

i dont know whether to audition for ergolytes or not. id love to be involved, but the rehearsal schedule for good time speech almost killed me. someone, lets discuss. talk to me talk to me.

o today, o today. im happy of late. things good have been occurring, and i hope they last. i went to kathryns and em and me and afton and kathryn had oodlesomefun with malebashing and watching camp, despite the lack of the hattieduncan and all. o but i had cookies. far too many cookies. SHAME ON ME. *shame* otherwise... o! afton said i am really awesome. thats lovely. and CAMP IS GOD! or near enough to it. okay, im just posting again to tide over rachel o'c XD and i have nothing else interesting to say. *tries to think* o yeah. we wrote a list of dudes to kill and recited the quote book. THE END!
