Project and good music week and Simpsoms

This project day was a good one (as if any aren't good). We went to Sprague Lake in the morning and hung out talking about our summers really and what God has taught us. We then had a quiet time at the lake. I love that the lake has some hills by it. I can walk 50 feet and be away from any sign of civilization. Fantastic that really is. After the lake, we came back to the Y and we had some more free time where I was able to take care of some business. On the tail end of that we had Lifegroup time. This was an extended time for 4 hours where the guys and the girls split up. We took some time to thrift (note Aaron's sweet jacket) and then just went cruising. Finally, we ate some sweet foods in a restaurants where sweet food exists. Something about a Bighorn Restaurant or something. I'm not sure exactly what it was. but it was good and I had a pulled pork barbecue sammich. So good. That was our day. Totally chill, and planned by our lifegroup leaders and that means I didn't have to do much. It was great. :)

As for the good music week. I guess that entails last Tuesday. Last Tuesday, two great albums came out on the form of Yellowcard and The Rocket Summer. Both cds have been rolling through my iTunes like mad. Go check them out (I REALLY like the Yellowcard offering).

Finally, I saw the Simpsons movie last night at the midnight showing. It was hilarious, although I must admit that the longer it went, the less funny it got. I thought it was best when it delivered one-liners and weakest when it tried to develop plot. There were certain plot elements that didn't feel intensely relevent to me, but so what. Pretty good movie overall, but since I'm used to the Simpsons spanning about 25 minutes, for it to go an hour and a half felt intensely long.

Finally, back to the music (I'm ADD in this post). I've been having a conversation with Jennee about what our top bands are. I said lets limit the list to 5 and see what you get. I'd love to hear your lists, but as for me they are (in no order whatsoever)...

1. Shawn McDonald
2. David Crowder*Band
3. Mae
4. Linkin Park
5. Yellowcard
