Fast? Check. New commitment? Check!
Hey all!
Anjoli and I participated in a Facebook(and other such entertainment on the internet)/phone fast this week per the invite of our good friend Canaan, who was introduced to the idea last year.
You'd be surprised how easily you can forget all about Facebook, etc.!
Here's a brief list of some of the things I did this week while NOT logging on Facebook or texting random people!
1. Had several (3, maybe 4) theological/spiritual conversations.
2. A lotttt of homework (I happened to be extremely productive with finishing homework early this week!)
3. Decided with Anjoli to give up all candy/soda for one year.
4. Went to Cru (I do this every week, but I thought I'd put it up here anyway!)
5. Met some Mormon missionaries (I'm not Mormon, and I don't plan to change my theological views either, if you were wondering).
6. Read some from epistles of Paul, and of course I read James, too (James=favorite)! :)
7. Got an academic minor...??
Hah, the fast was over at midnight last night, and I still haven't even bothered to sign onto Facebook!
Have a fantastic weekend, and tell me what YOU did this week--I have been isolated from the world, after all!

Phone Fast Much?
Okay peeps,
My good friend, Canaan introduced me a FANTASTIC idea! Starting next week (Oct. 11-16), I'm going to participate in a FAST. The short definition of a fast is this: A fast consists of a period of time in which a person goes without doing or having something, and they do this with a purpose.
In this case, we're not using phones or computers, except for academic purposes and a few other big exceptions, and the time we would use doing such things like texting/calling or using a computer (for instance, FACEBOOK) would be utilized for learning something new/praying/reading the Bible/reflecting and spending time with GOD!
All of the true details of this fast can be found here:
Fast 2010
Join the group if you want to participate--it'll be great :)
Thanks, Canaan, for this opportunity!
