Letterboxing!!

Sorry I haven't posted for....*gasps* ten days!! So, yeah, I've been busy. But guess what? I've joined in on letterboxing! If you don't know what that is, then here is a basic explanation:

Letterboxing is an outdoor hobby that combines elements of orienteering, art, and puzzle solving. Letterboxers hide small, weatherproof boxes in publicly-accessible places (like parks) and distribute clues to finding the box in printed catalogs, on one of several web sites, or by word of mouth. Individual letterboxes usually contain a notebook and a rubber stamp. Finders make an imprint of the letterbox's stamp, either on their personal notebook or on a postcard, and leave an impression of their personal stamp on the letterbox's "visitors' book" or "logbook" — as proof of having found the box and letting subsequent letterboxers see who have visited. Many letterboxers keep careful track of their "find count".


Can you tell it's from Wikipedia??? Yeah, it is. Though I italicized it. Anyways, if you want to join the letterboxing community, I suggest making your own stamps. Your letterboxing ID stamp should be the first one you make. You need to choose a trail name too. My favorite way to do this is to combine your favorite animal and favorite sport.

Example:

Favorite Animal: Cat
Favorite Sport: Basketball

Then you would become Basketball Cat. My favorite letterboxing website (which gives more info on letterboxing) is www.atlasquest.com. See you there! :)

Bible?

Sorry I didn't post this yesterday. I have a question: What do you consider your favorite book of the Bible? Mine is 1 corinthians. :) Go through it and find a short passage to memorize. I'm currently trying to memorize 1 corinthians 7-9. You have to look that up in the Bible, cuz' once upon a time I wasn't dilagent (is that how you spell it?) about reading the Bible, and I kept putting it off, and putting it off, and blah blah blah, until finally, one day I decided to pick it up and read it. And ever since I've read the Bible more than I blog. Seriously. Why don't you try it?

And here's the description:

This book is for Soul Sisters everywhere--a generation of girls living to please the heart of God.
There are lots of voices today telling us what to do and who to be. Some are subtle; some are obvious. Which ones should we trust?

The Bible speaks in a loud and clear voice into every area of life:

  • The truth about identity
  • The truth about forgiveness
  • The truth about boys
  • The truth about destiny
Beth Redman walks us through many of life's difficult issues and shows us how important it is to get into God's Word and to get God's Word into us.

I have the first two and the third one I am ordering and will soon be on the way to my house. I can't wait to read it!! I love this series.

You're sitting down, watching Disney. Your favorite TV show comes on. What is it? For me, it's Suite Life on Deck. I only watch certain Disney shows, the fun ones. I believe Suite Life on Deck is awesome because it is fun and not so serious yet dumb like other Disney shows. And Sonny With A Chance is just pure fun. But other shows, such as Hannah Montana or Wizards of Waverly Place are a little too grown up for even someone my age. I'm serious. Phineas and Ferb is my least favorite television show, because it's weird, scary (not scary scary, but scary weird) and just plain boring. I mean, they do the same thing every time. Phineas and Ferb build something, Candace tries to bust them, she doesn't succeed, Perry saves the world from Dr. Doofensmirtz, blah blah blah blah. Playhouse Disney is another part of Disney, and it's cute! I like turning it on for my little sister if we are somewhere that we can watch it. See, we don't get Disney. Or Nick. Because we have a TV system called SkyAngel, which is a Christian TV system. It has shows such as Auto B. Good, Creation's Creatures, etc. And we get the basic channels such as FOX news and Weather Channel. Lately, since I don't get to see Disney or Nick unless I: A. Go to someone's house that has it or B. Choose to buy shows to watch on my iPod, I have taken a liking to the Weather Channel. I don't mean I sit around watching Daily Planner all morning. I watch shows such as Storm Stories and It Could Happen Tomorrow. Disney is good if you have nothing better to watch, but when you do watch it, be careful.

There you go!! Hope it helped somebody.
