Stream of Consciousness 4

Goodness I'm tired, but I am thinking of a lot of stuff. So here it goes...

First off, at youth group today, my youth pastor was talking about this passage in 1 Corinthians 1 that says "God will frustrate the intelligence of the intelligent." And in the group, everyone was talking about it as if God was frustrating the intelliGENT. Like he was just making them angry and aggravated for the heck of it. But the verse says that he frustrates the intelliGENCE. Well, I tried to say something but my brain to mouth coordination wasn't working too properly. So it I'm not sure what was communicated. But intelliGENCE is not capable of feeling emotion. So, therefore, the only proper and logical definition of the word "frustrate" would be "To prevent (a plan or attempted action) from progressing, succeeding, or being fulfilled." (I got that from Google.) God will confuse or mess up the intelliGENCE of the intelliGENT. Which, yes, may cause the intelliGENT to get frustrated. But he is not frustrating the intelligent, he's frustrating the intelligence.
I'm not sure why it bugged me so much. But it did and now I blogged about it.
So there.

The other night I went to this Civil War Ball with my friends and with my dad. It was really fun! I couldn't imagine living in those dresses, though. And corsets? My goodness. Some of those dances were pretty complicated. But I really enjoyed how everyone just talking to each other and was nice to each other. Not sure about public schoolers, but it seems as if whenever there's a group of homeschoolers who don't know each other, everyone talks to each other anyway. And people say we're unsocial.

At church today I thought up a brilliant line for my book during the lesson but I didn't want to write it down in the middle of it because then it would look like I was taking notes. I didn't want people thinking that because I wasn't taking notes at all... hehe. Thankfully I remembered it, though.

After church I went out to lunch with a friend that I haven't seen in a while. It was really awesome! I really like those friends that you can just talk to, even if you haven't seen them in months.

I was driving home tonight. It was dark outside (duh) and I had my glasses on and the road was super curvy. I was so stressed, oh my goodness. Because my glasses glared the lights so when I was turning I could see that cars were coming, but I couldn't see the lane I was supposed to turn in to. I eventually just let my dad drive.

I START SCHOOL ON TUESDAY. I can't decided if I'm excited or if I'm dreading the upcoming assignments and frustrations that come with school. Thankfully, neither I nor my brother have a first period class. (Even though EVERYONE'S telling me to take Apologetics (the first period class.).)

How do you do parentheses inside of another pair of parentheses? That really threw me off for a second...

SHERLOCK ENDED IN ENGLAND TODAY BUT IT'S NOT ON THE INTERNET YET AND I'M ABOUT TO DIE.

Kay, bye.
