that’s great! I am hoping to eventually major in mathematics and possibly also psychology. I want to hopefully end up teaching in those subjects!
Yeah, I'm looking to go into IT/Help Desk Support. So, I've been accepted to the college now, and I'm planning to enroll in the IT Technical Support and Services Associates degree program, and be a part-time student. Idk where my career path will lead, but cybersecurity is also something of interest that I could perhaps branch into at some point.
Yes, it's being going great. 👍 I've come up the learning curve now, and I'm enjoying working there. Ah ok. So is there any field in particular that you're interested in studying?
Is there a specific kind of thing you want to do in IT?
Ooh, you got a job! I hope that's going well for you! If I end up getting an Associates it'll probably be an Associates of Science, there aren't majors for them at our college.
Oh yeah, I'm also starting a part time job now at the deli my two sisters work at, so now I'll at least have some kind of job to do while I look for work in the IT field. 😅😂
Wow, that's terrific! 😄👍 What does the degree major in? I might possibly go on at some point for an Associates in IT, as well.
Congratulations!! I am currently enrolled in some Dual Credit and looking into graduating High School with my associates degree!
Back in May. I also graduated from college then, too, since I did a certificate program at a local community college in my last two years of highschool. And it was free tuition because of the state's dual enrollment program. If you're interested, you should check out the one in TX, called Dual Credit, where you can take tuition-free college courses in your junior and senior years 👍
Yes, get a job. When did you graduate?
Cool! I don't have school anymore, but I sure do need a job 😅😂
it’s going pretty good! About to start school again!
Oh hey, Charis, there you are! 😆 How's it going these days?
Oh hi!! I am still half out here :)
He's prolly loong since forgotten about us 🤣
It's been a long time, peeps! 😅😆 I wonder if Charis is still half out there 🧐😂
...Sorry. Just felt like being a little "poetic" there for a second 👀😅😆
*opens squeaky door, swipes at a net of cobwebs on the frame and steps through, observing dusty, empty and neglected surroundings, long forgotten by former inhabitants and left as a shelter for rodents and insects alike*
Its only for selective people
nah i meant another group
Micah had probably forgotten that we were in that group 😏😂
Uhh...not exactly sure what you mean by that 😅😂
oh can u see my groups or sum?
I can't find it on the website 😅
Umm...you mean Hard Chats? 😂
hint: if u need a hint i will give u one but i don't feel like it so srry 😅
find my secret group that i created like so long ago and forgot i had... thanks ALM
Oh yeah, I forgot about that, lol 😆
Oh, lol, the link is in the theological discussions description
I thought I had made the group private 🤔😆 Anyway, it doesn't matter 😂
Yeah, neat! 😁😆 Well I once picked up trash along the side of the road, and I didn't even get paid for it 😂
I pick up the trash on the sides of the road. a very humble job but at least I get paid 😂
Nah, it just fits his nick-name of "Micah-da-critic" 😏😆
Oh, cool! 😅 What do you do for the state? And why does your pfp look skeptical? 🤔 Are you trying to make a point? 🤣
yup and a also have a job for the state
Did you get the job at Wendy's yet?
Hey, Micah! 👋😄 Whatcha been up to?
Wow, Micah, you're taking quite the long break 😂 Are you ever planning to come back? 😅
didn’t know that stuck with you so much Roger 😂
And Charis is "half out there" in case you're wondering 🤣
Hi! Micah I didn't know you were still active!
I keep on forgetting to check this group 🤦♂️😂
because she just hired a bunch of people
👌 she said she can’t hire now but will hire me at the end of May
Oops, I'm a little late 😅 How'd it go?
Micah, absolutely I will pray for you 😄 Is it at Wendy's?
I have a job interview on Monday at 1:00 if u all will pray for me
😆 Yeah, I think it does, too
Micah, did you guys host last year?
😂 I like Micah’s nickname, it fits him
Aw, yay!! I’m so glad you worked out for you!
😂 Yeah, you sure haven't changed your tune at all, Micah 😆 Vera and I have this affectionate nickname for you-- "Micah da Critic" 😏
Well, I think that God's will is better than thousands of dollars 😉
Haha 🙄 I can tell you haven't changed a bit 🤦♀️😂
But I’m glad it worked out for you
But to me wearing the thin piece of cloth on my mouth would have been worth the thousands of dollars 😂
So, that goes to show that God does work everything for the good those who love Him and have been called according to His purpose. In the process, He taught me two things: 1. Stand up for what you believe no matter what the cost, and 2. Surrender. Trust and Obey. Ironically, we sang that song and "He Leadeth Me" at my graduation, which was the very day I had to quit the job. And those two songs really spoke to me. Also, if I'd worked there first, I never would've worked at the restaurant and gotten all the valuable experience and made valuable relationships. (And now I don't have to wear a mask at either job.) So, praise God! I just thought I'd share that with you both (Sorry it is so long 😬😅)
Micah and Charis, I thought I'd give you both an update on something while you're still around... You're still here, right? 👀 Good 😉 So, I'm sure you remember that back in July (8 mons ago) I got hired at the grocery store that I ended up having to leave bc I wasn't going to wear a mask. Well, about two weeks ago, the mask policy was lifted there, and on Thursday the manager who had first hired me spoke to me and asked if I was still interested in the job. I said yes, and was in the next day. Now I am in the process of training, and I now have two jobs (they are both within 5 min walking distance of each other.) And at the grocery store, I'm getting paid more now than what I would've had I started in July.
I'm... assuming those are two of Micah's favorite rappers? 🤔😂
I looked it up, and it's Lecrae and 1k Phew 😅
And what's with the pfp? 😲 (As everyone else asked 😅)
Micah! *wags a disapproving finger at you* ☝️You haven't said anything probably this whole year, and all you do when you come back on is put a waving hand?! 😩😆
@Micah, yeah… the pfp…. 😂
@Roger, nope! it’s just Charis.
Ah, there you are 😂...what's with the weird pfp? 👀🤔
He's probably a quarter out there 😆
Micah is not even half out here 👀🤔
Hey, Charis, random question 😅 Is your full name Charissa?
Ah, yes I’m half out here
Yeah right 😂 She's peering in here waiting for more activity 👀
And Charis must be half out here somewhere, right? 😂
Hey, Micah, wassup? 😉 (Gotta check in with you every once in a while just to make sure you're still alive. Just kidding 🤣)
@Charis, ha! I can spell ya'll just fine 🤠😏
I say it all the time at work, but I hardly ever spell it 😅
anyone can say y’all so long as they spell it right
Ummm, I think that's different 😂 That's more of just a general southern thing, and it doesn't need as strong of an accent as howdy xD Plus, it just sounds to formal to say "you all".
Does the howdy rule apply to ya’ll? 🤔
@Micah, same as Vera. 😅 I would have to hear you talk more, and pay more careful attention. 😆
I don't think we have one 😂 Would you know, by any chance, if it sounded like a New England accent?
Ummm, I don't know...I didn't hear you speaking enough to know if you had one 😅
do y’all think I have an accent? I could hear yours and Vera’s Roga 🤠
@Henry, just a heads up, I sent you another message on Hangouts 😉
xD Imo, I don't have any accent, but I actually probably do have one and I just don't hear it 😂 None of us has a strong New Hampshire accent like our relatives from there do, but my mom is from WV and when she says certain words, you can hear a little of that WVian accent
And I don't have a southern accent, I might have some sort of texas accent but it don't sound southern
I don't think that makes logical sense now.... idk anymore xD
Yeah but I imagine Howdy with a southern accent and imo it sounds wrong without one 🤷♀️ hola is different since it's a different language
Btw, Henry, check your Hangouts 😉
@Micah, I practically never use the word hola with anyone 😅😂
@Henry, me too 😂 @Charis, I usually put on a southern accent and say it, so that qualifies 😆 Do you have a Texas accent?
I imagine 🤠 with a southern accent when I think of howdy 😂
I tell people hola and I don’t have a Mexican accent
it’s not cultural or anything sense we are all Americans
howdy is short for how do you do so 🤷♂️
I don’t think anyone has a right to say howdy unless they have a southern accent… it just sounds wrong without one
But since we live in the south, I was thinking I might have some grounds to use more southern-like words 😆
@Henry, technically, we're all Yankees, bc one of the definitions of Yankee is "a person who lives in, or is from, the US." But it also means "an inhabitant of New England or one of the northern states." So, I'm kinda both 😂
Uhh, you know, I THINK it was a southern accent, but I can't be positive 😅 It didn't sound familiar
😂 Like a southern accent?
You know, a couple weeks ago, a customer who had a thick accent came into the restaurant where I work. I was taking his order, and he had to ask me to repeat myself at once point. Then he inquired as to where I'm from, and when I said New Hampshire, he was like, "I'm just trying to figure out where your accent's from." And I'm thinking(not saying), "🤔... YOU'RE the one who has the accent." 😂
Haha, Henry, yeah, but I've never really considered myself a Yankee 😆
Micah, you finally decided to pay us a visit? What, did Noah tell you that Roger was asking about you? 😂
😂 Isn’t NH a Yankee state? 🤔
...do I have a right to say howdy, Charis? 😅 Just wondering
Micah!? Where have you been?! 😂
The Texan girl has spoken 😆
you have no right to say howdy Micah
Hey, Charis! 😃👋👋 How have you been?
Well that's...good to know, I guess 😂 Btw, in case you're wondering where everyone went, the activity has been booming on Memorize Gods Word and Agape Force lately. 😉
I’m half out here somewhere
Charis and Micah, are you still out there somewhere?? 🕵️😅
Yeah, I'm getting a break off from my regular school this week. My break from the college stuff continues till the 10th.
😌 Is that for high school?
Tomorrow is the first day of my one week winter break, and boy, I am so going to enjoy every minute of it 😌😊
😂 Yeah, snow is fun! Hopefully you get to experience it more
not sure if the fun of snowboarding is worth falling on your bottom a bunch of times before you get the hang of it 😅
Ok, cool! I really like going sledding, too 😁 (when there's enough snow for it, that is). I've never snowboarded either, so don't worry 😅
Yes, by traveling a little to/near NV. Sledding was fun 😃, but I haven’t snowboarded like my sister
😶 Oh wow! So, have you ever seen snow in person before?
The last time it snowed here was 1976 🙁
It snowed there already?! 😮 I wish we could get some snow this year, but we usually just get ice 🙁
Well, it can be interesting for some 😂
So did you get a chance to see it this evening? 😃
Yeah, you wouldn't want that to happen 😬😆
So are you worried that Pluto will end up trying something dangerous? 😆
Nah, just flat, so I won’t accidentally slide and fall 😆 Possibly on the latter… but there’s a video of a golden retriever who climbs up the ladder onto the roof 😆
Oh, with a parapet, too? 😆
Wow! 😅 Be careful you don't fall off the roof 😲
apparently it’ll be visible after sunset, and Sunday night it will be most visible
Yeah, it would be neat to see it 😃 I was going to look on Monday, but houses were blocking its projected path. I might have to get on the roof to see, that is if it doesn’t rain…
And I haven't heard about the comet either, but that would be neat to see it! 😃
I'm not really sure if I've been over 85 mph (if even that) 😂 Whoa! 😳 I don't think I'd want to be in that car. The Hungarians drive really fast, so I've probably experienced something in the 80 mph range before 😅
About the comet, I hadn't even heard about it 🤔 and when I looked it up just now, it says it's visible in the early morning, so I probably haven't seen it either. Have you seen it? But it's kind of interesting, bc Leonard is my dad's name 😅
About the car thing, I'm not sure 😅 I've probably never gone over 100 mph, I don't think 😂 Maybe not even over 90...
Has anyone seen Leonard’s comet? It’s going to be most visible this week, and then it’ll be gone forever
yeah 😅 What the fastest you’ve been on a car? My dad drove over 110mph back when my sister was in college across the other side of the state 😅
😱 @Henry, that's insane! 😅
my dad’s friend live over 2 hrs away, but for him it’s like half of that since he drives 2x the speed limit…
yikes 😬 a lot of people go way past the speed limit, so by the time they see the crash it might be too late or difficult to not crash 😕
This is CRAZY! It's a multi-car wreck on an LA highway https://tinyurl.com/326sewtw I would be surprised if no one was killed...
Some old guy a few weeks ago drove in the wrong direction on our one-way hill street and somehow crashed into someone’s house, completely wrecking the bumping and a big dent in the house. He had a tow truck take it away, and I’m not sure if the homeowner has dealt with it already
Speaking of which, on Thanksgiving Day, there was a hit-and-run accident on the road behind our house. It didn't seem to be very severe, but the person who hit the other car took off down the road. The other ppl who got hit pulled into a driveway, got out, and stood beside the road for a while. A few minutes after we heard the crash happen (I didn't actually see it), there were a total of four sheriffs that went chasing after the guy who had driven away. The other ppl in the driveway eventually left, I think...
Well, five mph over the speed limit isn't much, but if it keeps on inching up, things can get dangerous.
and then get mad if other people don’t
here people just go five over
Today there was a sheriff officer that pulled over someone in a pickup truck (who was probably speeding) onto a side street diagonally across from our house. After the officer had checked the guy's license and stuff and had given it back to him, he got back into his cruiser, backed out onto the main road, and left going in the direction they both had come from. Well, after the sheriff's gone, when the guy in the truck went to leave in the other direction, he burned rubber and took off speeding down the road...🤔 Sure seems like he learned his lesson, that's for sure 😂 Btw, we have a lot of speeders on the roads in front of and behind our house.
😂 Yeah, I like to wear as few layers as possible in the winter, cause then if I wear to many, I'll get sweaty
I prefer to be underdressed 😂 I’ll get hot at 50 in a tshirt if I’m active enough bc of humidity
Yeah 😅 I'm tend to like to dress on the lighter side when I go out. But I still make sure that I'm not underdressed for the weather 😂
unless you’re hot with the layers on 😂
I've seen people around here doing that...not a smart idea 😂
Oh! 😂 Ok, well that's a bit, um... crazy 😅
Oh, well I did do that a few times a long time ago in our family's guitar but I meant I used to go around in shorts and a t-shirt in the 40s
in her sibling’s guitar 😅😂
You mean drop your pick in your guitar? 😅
Well, maybe some ppl would 😂
people in Alaska still consider that cold. it’s not like they would go out in 40 degree weather in shorts and a tshirt
There ended up being three "I thinks" in that paragraph 😅 Remember, I was only about 6 at the time...
🤣 I think it was our mom who ended up being the one to get them out... and I actually think some of them never did come out. When we moved to Hungary, I think we ended up giving the guitar away to my uncle for his daughter
Lol 🤣 Yeah, I think I did do it intentionally...probably cuz I thought it was fun or something 😆 Of course, I wasn't the one that had to get it OUT of the guitar 😅
Did you intentionally do that? 🤣 I used to accidentally drop my picks in the hole, and I remember the frustration trying to shake it out 😂
So, this is a random history fun fact 😂 (as in back when I was about 3 and Vera was around 6). But Vera and I were remembering the other day how I used to drop her guitar picks into the hole in her guitar that she had at that time. 😆 As I recall, she wasn't very happy when I did that, bc then she would have to try to get it out of there 😅 Just kind of a random funny thing that I remember from the past.
Micah, on glad to hear! 😃 Henry, that would be nice! 😂 I think I'd consider mid 90s to be hot here. Cold for me would be 40s. Whenever I can, I don't wear my winter hat 😏 I don't like a lot of layers, cause then I get too hot
What temp would be considered hot? Alaskans would probably consider that warm 😂
@Micah, that's great! 😉 @Henry, wow! 😂 Yeah, for us folks here down south, the temp being in the 30s and 40s is actually pretty cold, especially for this time of year. But, yeah, understandably, for you up north, Micah, it's not that cold. It just depends on what region of the country you live in 😅
It’s usually in the 60s here, summer or winter. The most layers I ever wear is a tshirt and a light jacket 😂
also I got my taste back 😊
that’s not cold at all Roger
So, what's the weather like where all of you are? Down here, it's already feeling like winter! 😅 For the past couple days, it's been down in the 40s and low 50s during the day, and then down in the 30s at night. 🥶
“you are just saying your opinion, not truth” 😉
As I said, I don't want to get into the hundredth debate (especially not on here), sooo... I'll 🤐😉
Also the 10-15 years of research was a different kind of research! when that research first came out people were scared of it! They thought vaccines were evil. There is no difference. Science improves. even you will admit that. you would probably agree with someone that said one day vaccines will be made quickly as to help people using science. Why not now? 🤷♂️
Also if ur saying the fax does anything Henry, and have no idea what it does or when, you are just saying your opinion, not truth
btw when I got covid my immune response was super high. I recovered in a day. 👊
that means my immune response lowered by over 100% 😯
Yes, Henry. Micah, I'll say this real quick, not to start a debate, but just as a quick closing thought on my part 😉 Vaccine victims are seeing their immune response drop by about 5% each week, with long-term consequences mirroring AIDS https://tinyurl.com/427s8btc (Of course, I know you won't "agree", so I'm not really saying this to convince you 😂)
If anything’s going to happen, it’s probably going to be the possible unknown long term side effects. After all, it usually takes 10-15 yrs of research and testing before approval
oh roger, it made me more sure about the bad because it wasn’t bad and I didn’t die and haven’t died yet 😂 if anything is gonna happen, shouldn’t it have happened yet?
Micah, plz make sure you check the group "Is the vaccine safe?" 😉 Btw, that's the same store I had gotten hired at, but had to "quit" bc of the mask policy...
Oh really? That's interesting 😅
I don’t think that’s the case anymore because it sometimes gets better and sometimes get worse. Maybe it wasn’t just the surgeon but a combination of things that gave me nasal polyps or sinusitis. I recently realized that avoiding all marker fumes improves it 😅
Wow 😕 The surgeon that removed you're wisdom teeth might've malpracticed and damaged some nerves
I’ve gotten used to having dulled smell and taste. I probably need to see a specialist, but like you said, the demotivation to eat isn’t too bad 😅
But don't worry, it should be only for about a week at the most
Yeah, I HATED it when I lost my taste and smell 😥 It made it so demotivating to even eat... which actually isn't too bad 😅
Hmmm...so, what do you think of the vax now?
also I lost my taste/smell 😬 I hate it sooooo much
the night terrors happen to me, when I get a fever or lack sleep. It’s pretty weird 😂
Btw, Micah, our oldest sister was sick (not with covid) about the same time you were. Thankfully none of us caught it 😌 (except our other sister might have a little something of it).
I think most colds are from rhinovirus or something like that
yeah, coronaviruses are one of the types of viruses that cause the common cold
Hmm...well "covid" is basically like a cold, that's the thing 😂 And the night terrors don't sound too normal to me...
I did have two night terrors last night tho…
and it was basically like a cold 😂
literally I was sick for a day Roger 😏
A lot of good that vaccine did you, huh? 😏 You've already gotten sick three times since you got it 🤔
Yeah, Micah, are you alright??
Henry, neat! I don't usually get hymns stuck in my head 😅
What's the matter, Micah?
yeah, that’s the type of music that gets stuck in my head 😅
xD Lol. Yeah, me neither...
😅 I don't know if I've ever heard that one...
😅 Now the hymn "The Old Account Was Settled Long Ago" is stuck in my head randomly without me playing it
...well, ok...actually, now that I've gone thru most of the day, I found that it's still stuck in there, but it's starting to be less prominent at least 😬🤷♂️😅
Glad you liked it! 😁 At least you don't have to get it stuck in your head like I did 😂 But I think that last night's sleep finally got it "unstuck" from my head. 😅
Great, I should have known that was the song 🤦♀️😂
Oh okay. Contemporary songs don’t get stuck in my head 😏
Nice song 😁 It’s “There is A God” by Phillips, Craig & Dean
I think you might have told me, but I forgot 😂
Roger, what song is it? 🤔
Yeah, he's just not too active, and I don't know if he's said anything on this group before 😅
Whoops, sorry 😅 And ME has been on this group for a while 😉
🤔 have you always been here ME? Don’t remember seeing you 😅
lol I have YouTube blocked on my phone, so the link made my browser crash 😅
I really like this song, but I've had it stuck in my head for the past couple days or so 😅 So go ahead and have a listen, so that you can get it stuck in your head, too! 😁😂 https://tinyurl.com/y4xy2nnm
😆 You JUST now figured that out?
ahhh, idk why it took me so long to figure out who charis is 🤪
@Micah, hi, there you are xD
@Noah, thanks for the encouragement 😂
Pre-Calc is fun, Roger. you’ll either really like it, or you’ll really hate it
Charis & Micah, you two still active? 🧐😄
Uhh, we'll...have....to...see about that 😬😂
Thankfully, no 😌 Next year I'll be doing Stewardship, Lord willing 😁 And, of course, my next year of school will be my last, so hehe 😏
Will you be taking calculus next year?
jk, that’s calculus 🤣 and it’s not too bad either 😅
oh nice 😄 wait until you get to derivatives 😏
It's actually mostly trigonometry, which isn't too bad 😌
Btw, a few weeks ago, I started Pre Calculus 😅
Yeah, we can switch over to that one if you'd like 😅
🤔 These topics should probably go in the other group
have you read about military training drills for martial law?
And yeah, that thing on the front actually is for refueling 😅...I looked it up
It could have been a military exercise; but then again, if it is, it might be in prep for something that's about to happen...like a war
Yeah, from what I’ve read, they typically only have 7.62 machine guns and miniguns
Isn’t the long thing stticking out on the chinook used for air refueling?
maybe a military exercise 🤷
Exactly. That's what I was gonna say 😂
That low? 🤔 Why would it be flying basically at treetop level to get to a base that is nowhere near us? 😂
who knows? maybe they were flying to another base?
@Micah, neither of those was the case in our situation
interesting Roger 🤔 @Vera maybe in the near future 🙂
oh yeah, we have had those too. They usually are carrying water to fires, or you live near a base and they are practicing.
Yes! That helicopter was ridiculously low!!
Just looked it up, and it was a Boeing MH-47G Chinook, like the one pictured here: https://tinyurl.com/4axvnaxz
Mind you, we don't even live near a military base, so it had to be coming from somewhere quite a distance away. A few minutes later, another one went overhead going in the same direction, but it was a lot higher in the sky. As I said, there's been a lot of that kind of stuff happening lately, so something's up. Have any of you seen that kind of thing happening lately, and do you think it's suspicious?
Btw, changing the topic, there was something pretty strange that happened today. Around 4:30 earlier, there was a black, double prop military helicopter with a long gun turret extended in the front, that flew EXTREMELY LOW overhead, more or less over the road in front of our house. I mean, we've had quite a few helicopters go over VERY low in the fairly recent past, but this one was the lowest we've ever had. It was practically touching the treetops, and it shook the whole house and even blew the leaves in the yard. It was ridiculously low.
Oh, ok, hmmm...well, maybe eventually you'll be able to have ppl that can be references 😊
We require that: One reference to be your pastor One reference to be be a person with whom you are spiritually transparent One reference to be a current/former employer, supervisor, or mentor
Thanks 😉 Oh, that's too bad... 😅 What are the qualifications for someone to be a reference for it?
Nice pfp Roger! 😄 Btw, I don’t think I have 3 required references for Unshackled 😅
Yeah, gj! 👍 Nice pfp Vera! 😄
Btw, don't worry, bc I'm planning to get a new pfp real soon, in case you were wondering 😆😅
Well, today is the first day of my college course(s) 😬😅 I already completed both the assignments for this week 😌 I just hope everything continues to go smoothly...
Wow, that is amazing! Praise God! 😄
I thought I'd share this video with y'all. It's about the amazing transformation of a revival that happened in this town called Almolonga, Guatemala. It's really interesting and encouraging 😀https://tinyurl.com/ytmhwjkv
Ummm, yeah ig something like that 😅 But, yeah, it says that you don't have to do it all in one sitting, so you can just chip away at it as you go. There's also someone there that you can contact, and she'll help you work out all the kinks and stuff 😉 But, yeah, definitely include dramatic parts 😂 I think it would make a really interesting radio drama and would also encourage a lot of ppl 😃
Do I write a 5-10 page essay? 🤔😅 I think I could if I could make use of my time and write a little a day. Since you made the suggestion there has idea been ideas playing in my head on what to write like the dramatic scenes😅
@Henry, I'm pretty sure that my dad once submitted his, but they didn't make a radio drama with it or anything 😅 It might've not been long enough or didn't have enough info to really dramatize it 🤷♂️ I'm not sure what the exact process is, but you could at least give it a try 😉
@Micah, you listen to 'em, too!? 😮 Cool! 😁
🤔 Interesting idea! I did listen to the Nabeel stories and thought they were good. Have any of you submitted your testimonies? 😃
Man! Those r good! Didn’t know u listened Roger 👍
Henry, tonight I just thought of a suggestion for something you could do that would be really neat! 😁 So, remember that radio program called Unshackled? Well, they make new radio dramatizations every week, using testimonies that ppl submit. I was thinking that maybe you could submit your testimony to them (thru the website, Unshackled.org), and they could end up making it into one of their radio dramas 😃 I think it would be super fun to listen to that. What do you think of the idea? 😉
Yeah, I really like it, too! 😁
I should ask, what is her name?
Charis, I love your pfp! 😍
Oh okay 😄 @Roger 2 months 😄 He was as big as the size of his head now
@Henry, that's interesting 😀 What age was he when you got him?
Wow! How old is she? Pluto’s a very sensitive but sweet dog. Goldens generally tend to be more sensitive, and some bad things happened to him as a pup that’s makes him easily startled. He uses his strength for play 😆 Yeah, I have to carry him often 😅
@Henry, lol, definitely seems like he only looks the part, but is a wimp at heart 😆 Or else he just uses his strength for when he's not under threat 😅😂
I think she’s around 45 pounds
You carried him??! 😯 Wow 😅 He must have felt pretty pampered at that time 😂
but he has like 3-4x more agility and stamina than I 😅😂
😂 I can carry him 😏 I had to carry him a couple blocks for a week to desensitize him from fireworks scare so that he will walk to that park. Now he’s not scared and has been walking that route without carrying for the first time in months 😄
😂 And lift weights more easily? 😏🤣
🤣 He’s all muscle, 💪 just a little chub on him, but he could probably eat a sirloin steak faster than me 😂
Wow 😅 What are you feeding him? He must be eating sirloin steak everyday for breakfast, lunch, and dinner 🤣
Yes! 😊 I’m curious, do you know how much she weighs? I thought mine would be 50-60 lb tops bc that’s what the breeder said, but he’s like 80 lbs now
Oh, cool! 😄 I like both those breeds of dogs 😊
She’s part lab part golden retriever. She’s also something else because she has a very small build for those two breeds….
Oh, ok 😁 What breed is he/she? It looks like a Labrador retriever 🧐
Charis, is that your dog in your pfp?
Maybe I should try that 😏 Lol, just kidding. Henry already knows now that I have his email address 😜
Yeah, especially when the recipient didn't know the sender had his email address 😆
do you know how weird it would be if someone just starting emailing you pictures of their family??
of my family 😱 counterspy 😨
No, I wasn't sending him pictures of my family 😉😏
Just pictures of his family 👍
You should be glad he hasn't been sending you spam emails all this time 😂 jk 😝
😂 Don't worry, Henry, it's not as creepy as it sounds
Henry, do you mind if I email you something? 😄 It's a video attachment, so I can't send it here in a link or anything. I already know your email address, (hopefully that's not too creepy 🤣🤣) so you don't have to give it out on here 😉
I should add, so as not to sound like I'm complaining...😅 that I really enjoy my siblings most of the time, and I wouldn't trade them for anything else 😉😁
Yeah...😂 especially with my having to share a (small) room with two older sisters... I'll admit, it can be trying sometimes 😬😅
Hmmm...I'm not exactly sure how to describe what it's like 😅 I guess it's like having 4 friends that you're around a lot 😊 Ofc, as it can be with anyone, at times, it's not all peaches and cream, if you know what I mean 😆
I wonder what it’s like to have 4 siblings 😅😄
I have a sister who’s almost 7 years older than me
Henry, I'm just curious, do you have a brother or a sister? And are they older or younger than you?
😂 Actually, they were still waiting for their food by the time I left
😂 One of those Elvis impersonators? What about when he left? “Elvis has left the building.” 🙄😂
Changing the topic, tonight, when I was just about to get off my shift, three customers came into the restaurant. One of them was trying to look like Elvis Presley...he had a white suit thingy on with jewels stuff in it, and his hair was slicked back. One of my coworkers said, "In the house." 🙄😂
but it’s so cute….. all of its little bitty teeth….
🤢 *shakes head and protests* Plz don't 😲
Nooooo!!! 🤢😩😂 I don't want to have to stare at a snake skull for who knows how long! 😆
orrrrrrr, I could make my pfp the snake skull…. I kinda want to do that now
It won’t last for long 😂 I just needed a new pfp…. I’m trying to figure out how to drawl new Nameless picture…..
I think it matches the "agent" part really well 😉
Tbh, I'm actually not entirely sure if it's supposed be good for bleeding 😅... however, we had tried a green tea bag for thirty minutes on Saturday, and it didn't do any good, so I'm inclined to think that the paste did help 🤷♀️😅
Is people paste generally used for bleeding? Once my gauze was too soaked, I used dry tea bags and replaced them after they were too soaked. Those were my surgeon’s instructions. Tea have tannins that apparently help stop bleeding
Praise the Lord! The bleeding stopped last night, and it is still stopped. I'm so thankful! 😃 One thing that I think was quite useful was this powder called people paste. It has goldenseal, myrrh, and elm bark in it. Last night, when other things really weren't working, we took a black tea bag, wet it, and put some people paste on it. Then I put it on the wound and bit down for an hour. It was after that that it stopped bleeding. (Note: before I had just been biting down on gauze for an hour at a time.) But another thing I am doing with the powder is putting 1/4 tsp of it into 8 oz of water. I drink it every four hours. Actually, the first time I did that, on Monday night, the pain I was having basically went away for a time. I haven't taken any pain meds since.
aww, that’s sounds awful 😕 praying for you
I got an extra day off from work today, but I need to go in tomorrow
I would like to ask for prayer, because on Friday I got my wisdom teeth removed. Then on Saturday I was having excessive bleeding on one particular spot--the lower left surgical wound. I ended up going in and the surgeon put packing in the wound and stitched it back up. But now it's 3 days later, and the bleeding hasn't really stopped (it had just been slowly coming out). I've been putting pressure on it and doing icing, but this afternoon it started bleeding more. I'm really tired of this whole thing, and I don't want to have to go back to the dentist. Please pray that it would heal up tonight...
And why did the police arrest the baker? Because he was beating the eggs and whipping the cream.
😂 Btw, why did the police arrest the clown? Because he was involved in a lot of funny business.
maybe not his nose but the thing that makes his nose grow
I think the lie detectors thingy just explodes
no, I have most of a raccoon skull.
And that's a tough question that I can't quite answer 😂
So, is that the first one you've gotten so far? 😲
Um, ig it depends on whether he planned that or not 😂
Let’s say that he says nothing else for the rest of his life. What happens??
Is being honest that he will lie in the future? Maybe his nose will grow if he intends on not lying, or he is just making a prediction of the future that might not be considered an intentional lie 😆
Still gross 🤢😂 Lol, that's a good one 😆 It's a catch 22 😅
Guysss, I need help. What would happen if Pinocchio said his nose was going to grow?
I wanted to keep it so I could build my skull collection 😁 so I’m cleaning it 😂
🤢 That is soo disgusting... how come you were left with that job? 😂
It’s just that some tissue insists on clinging to the bone…. smh
My brother found a snake skeleton at work a few days ago and now I’m cleaning the skull 😁 it’s kinda nasty 😂
Oh okay 😀 I just realized I have spent more time the past year in English than computer science 😅
It's the pre requisite class for all the other ones. It's called "Introduction to Computers" 😉
😅 If you don’t mind me asking, what class did you sign up for?
Well right now I'm just signed up for the first class, but, Lord willing, I'll be doing more later...I'm not sure how many tho 🤔😅
I’m certainly not the latter 😏
🥳 or 😬 😅 How many classes are you taking?
Lol, it's the former 😏😜 It's the name of the dual enrollment program here in NC. Yesterday I got accepted into the college!! 😄🥳 I begin on Oct. 14....but I'm a little nervous, tho 😬😳
Career & College Promise? (or the Communist Party of China 😏😎)
Henry, guess what? I'm a member of the CCP--literally 😏😎
Ok, now this one is me and my OTHER "Siamese twin" 😂😂😜
...........ok......I'll think I'll change it now. 😆
Btw, w/ this new pfp, I'll probably just do it temporarily 🤣
😂 I guess skirts and dresses aren’t as common as in the pilgrim days 😆
😂 I guess they thought that if there are still Indians around, there must still be pilgrims, too 😆
A pilgrim? Why in the world…. 😂 😂
So...if it looks weird to go around with messy hair in your pajamas at the store, you'll still do it? 😂
Also they didn’t wear masks when they had surgery’s on people, but then started because there were a lot of infections happening. So it does do something. And it probably looked weird to most people when they started wearing masks at hospitals, but that’s never a reason we shouldn’t do anything Roger.
I know 😂😂 Another person who doesn't know their history that well
Changing from that topic...guess what one of the first questions one of my co-workers asked me? *waits for two seconds* You're not gonna guess, so I might as well tell you 😅 Ok, so to you, this'll seem weird, but for me, I've heard it from my sisters so many times, it's old hat 😂 Well, first, she asked me what religion I was (nothing weird there, right?) When I told her I'm a born again Christian, she was like, "Oh, so you're not Amish?" *seriously? Do I look Amish?*🤦♀️😆 No, but she was asking cause I was wearing a skirt. My sisters were asked that all the time. One of them was even asked if she was a pilgrim 🤣
If there wasn't any covid to begin with, any person with their head screwed on straight would think you were stupid if they saw you cooking with a mask on. 😂 All thru history, ppl have prepared food without a stupid mask, and humanity has still survived. The masks don't do a lick of good to prevent a virus from getting thru. As I've said before, it's like putting up a chain-link fence to stop a gnat. A virus is much smaller than the holes in the mask.
what about when they’re cooking the outsides and stuff
I can understand part of where Micah is coming from
w/out covid, people should still wear masks to prevent other airborne virus or spit from getting on the food. 🤷♂️
But like when you are cooking the insides and stuff.
Yeah, but the owner usually comes in and cooks and handles food. And the waitresses and hostesses put the orders together and take them to the guests--so they handle the food in some fashion 😏
Well, as you know, I think the masks are stupid, covid or no covid, but I'm at least glad when ppl don't force you to wear one. Everyone should at least have the freedom of choice.
Cool w/ the masking. I think that’s 100% goood. I like how those who touch the food/dishes wear masks. Even without the covid it might still be good. 😂 I understand, we do the same, except Friday night and Saturday 👍
And yes, I take Sundays off. And since they open at 4 on Sat, and the sun is setting earlier these days, rn I'm not working Sat (it's too bad, bc otherwise I would be fine with working Sat. It's not that I want the whole weekend off)
No, they don't refuse ppl who wear masks. Ppl can wear a mask if they want, and they don't have to wear one if they don't want to 😁 Of the employees, only the cooks and dishwashers wear masks; all the girls (hostesses and waitresses) and the owner don't.
& u take sundays off right?
do they refuse people who wear masks?
Yeah, as in, it got really busy 😅 Soon after I got in to work, lots of ppl started coming in and calling. But then like an hour and a half b4 close, things got so dead. But yeah, it was a Fri night, and the other employees said that's how it usually is on Fri
A delicious sounding menu 😋
Yeah, tho it's a REALLY steep learning curve 😅 I can't wait until I have all the "ins-and-outs" down. Yesterday we got slammed, and I didn't feel like I was being of too much help at that time, bc rn things are a bit confusing to me. 😬...they have an extensive menu...😅
Maybe...but I like the job I have rn, anyway 😉
you could have gotten a religious exemption....
So, I just thought I'd say (while we're on this topic) that it's actually a good thing that I didn't end up staying at that last job. Even if I had made the decision to stay and wear a face covering, now Biden is mandating employers with over 100 employees to have all their employees vaxxed. So, yeah. That last place would have been in that category. So in hindsight, I know that was the Lord that didn't let me work there. My mom was even telling me after I left that soon they're going to start mandating the vax, so I would have to leave anyway. But the place I'm working at now is smaller...
Yeah! Praise God! 🥳 Glad you found a job that’s working out! 😄 Yeah, what are the odds? 😅
Btw, fun fact: the name of the girl I trained with today is Faith! 😆 (no kidding) And she's about my age, too. What are the odds? 😅
In the meantime, my sister is also very excited, cause she will probably be able to get a waitress job there, as they're in desperate need of one. She used to work as a waitress at another place, but had to leave, and now she's an online English tutor. She likes her job now, and her students like her, so she's torn btwn wanting the waitress job and staying with what she has now. But I hope she can work at the place I'm working 😏
Praise God! I'm so happy bc I now have a job that is working out. 😃 I started training today and am really liking it! The best part--no mask!! 😄🥳 I'm training as a hostess at a southern restaurant. I hope to eventually be a waitress.
Amen! That is a great reminder 😄
😖😂 On a serious note, “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” (Colossians 3:23)
😬 Yikes, 8 hours is a lot of studying! 😅 Thing is, with the extra studies that I'm planning to do this fall, along with my regular school, I'll have quite a lot to do myself! 😖😂
I have a essay draft due on Tuesday, and I’m kind of falling behind in material for my other classes 😅 I just remembered that a full time student needs to spend 8 hrs a day studying 😬
...well, things have been pretty slow, lately, on the groups...probably bc everyone's going back to school. I hope things pick back up, eventually 😅
yeah that looks pretty cool
I use a JBL flip and sense that is waterproof, we keep it hanging on the shower head.
😳 I forgot my dog is already over 2.5 years. Don’t even remember what he was like as a puppy 😥
it’s scary 😟 Why does it go by so fast???
Yeah, I can't believe this year is just about over! 😮
months go by like weeks, and days by hours 😅 School work that took me a few hours to do back in high school now takes me a whole day 😑
I just remembered that today is the first day of September and I need to go switch my calendar 😆 The months are just whizzing by! 😅
I mean, you can just put it on the counter and play music from it like that I guess.
there are phones that are resistant, like iPhones. I once dropped mine in a toilet, but it was fine 😅😂
Yeah, that's kinda weird 😂
I think my older sister does that…. I’ve never really understood it. I feel like you can’t hear the music well enough….
... or your tablet, or whatever device you use
😆 How does your phone not get wet?
Uh... yeah... is that weird? 😂
😂 I thank God for that song though 😊
That's neat! 😅 Yeah, it gets a bit old when I only know a verse or two from a song, and I have it stuck in my head for days 😂 I'm thinking, "I wish I could change the CD!" 😂
background music in your dreams 😂 Yeah, “How Great Thou Art” has been playing in my head for over a month now, and it kept playing in my head that I had to go and finally memorize the lyrics so that it isn’t just one verse 😂 I also hum and sing it, and now it got me to learn how to play it finger style on guitar. 😄
@Micah, same question 😆 @Charis, I used to be that way, too, when my voice changed...but I've gotten use to it now, and I like to belt it out in the shower (and other times, too, of course) 😂 But it's like a studio in there! 🤣 @Henry, yeah, I usually have a tune in my head throughout the day (that I sometimes sing out loud or hum). I even sometimes have background music/tunes in my dreams! 😂
😂 I sing in my head. Music plays in my head most of the day 😅
Wait. Micah, you... listen to music in the shower??
😂 I sing a lot in the shower, but my sisters are usually like, "Please lower your voice!" Cause our room is right next to the shower 😅
I used to. I’m too self conscious about my singing voice now 😆
I used to 😂 now I just listen to my music 🎶
...Ok this is so random: do any of you like to sing in the shower? I do 😂 (And, Micah, I know you're gonna say "no" so you don't have to answer 😝)
So, there are like two branches of computer tech support, and the one I'm more interested in is the system/software side of things vs the hardware side of things. 😊
No I've never done that before 😅 That would be more like something my younger brother would do. He's good at detail, and with mechanical stuff, and he enjoys that kind of stuff (I kind of do, too, but just not as much as he does 😂)
👍 Have you played around with putting a pc together from parts? I thought it was fun and kind of like legos 😅
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy it 😀 My dad and mom think that I will do well in that area.
😂 I think computer repair is fun 😄
Ok, well, I'm mainly aiming to become a computer support/repair tech, so I'm not sure if that would require Calculus, too. But, alas, if it does, I'll just have to wing it 😖😂
oh 😅 cuz for cs degree Calc is required
Ok 😅 Calculus doesn't quite appeal to me 😬😂 I think with the courses I'm looking to do, I'll be able to get around having to do that 😌
BC* to skip a year of calc, AB to skip a semester
You’re welcome! 😊 If you’re planning to study computer science or something like that, AP Calculus is pretty good. You can skip Calc 1 with AP Calc AB, and you can skip both Calc 1 and Calc2 in college with AP Calc AB 😄
Thanks! 😁 Wow, that's a big discount!...then again I'm not sure if I'd be eligible for one. But, I told my mom about it, and she had me to send it to her to check out. I'm not sure if it's exactly what we're looking for, but 🤷♂️ Thnx for telling me about it, tho 😊
College board provides $34 discount if eligible based on financial need, and depending on the state there might be additional funding. Actually I think my test were $9 or so
@Roger I took the tests for $5 each 😅 They have a discount
Thanks, Charis! 😀 @Micah, like Vera said, it's not only the mask thing, but also the distance, and the fact that my mom already has to drop off and pick up my sister at work everyday. So, it just wouldn't fit with our schedule. Besides, when did I ever say that I didn't WANT to go to a college campus? 🤔 If it would work out, (which it wouldn't in our case), I'd be fine with going there. @Henry, that's neat! 😁 Thing is, it would probably be too expensive 😬
Blehh, predicaments….. Praying for you guys as you’re trying to figure it out!
Micah, it's not exactly just the mask thing. It's also that the campus is pretty far from here...
Maybe it means you should go on campus Roger, what you want isn’t always what God wants.
I think each test without discount is $90 though 😅Then again, a college class is much more
I have used Udemy, and it only gives you a certificate when you complete a course. There are people who take enough APs in high school that they have enough credits to graduate college 1-2 years early 😅
most universities count AP for credit, but I don’t think that’s true for Udemy
Oh, I looked it up and they are with paper again and start ~May. I think you’d have to register to take the test at a school. There are a bunch of study material (eg workbooks) for each AP subject that you could learn and study from home 😄
At this point, we're looking at some online courses for me to take, on a website called Udemy. They're not free tho, but not that expensive either. About $15 per course. So, maybe this will shape up 🤷🏼♂️ Everything else we thought would work was a big flop 😂
Sounds interesting, tho...
No, I've never taken the AP before 🤔
that took ~40 minutes each. I’m not sure if it changed though since that was the first time it was online
Last spring I took the AP tests online. I got 5 college credits for a few problem exam 😄
Have you taken Advanced Placement tests by the same people who made the SAT? I took AP classes in high school to prepare for the exam that gives you college credit if you pass. I knew some people who just took a bunch of AP tests without the classes by studying on their own
Ugh 🤦♂️ Now I discovered that this is only on-campus and not online, so it's probably not gonna work. That's too bad. 😕
😬 Yeah, we were a little mixed up at first 😅 And, also, with Dual Enrollment, it's to earn college credits, so I'll only get a certificate or diploma upon completion, and not a degree. If I wanted to go on for a degree, that would be after I graduate. So, a little different than what I had thought at first, but it's still a start 😀
Yeah that’s why I was confused earlier about the GED. 😅 That is nice! 😄
Oh, yeah, and with the Dual Enrollment, the tuition is free, so that's nice. 😄
So, just an update on that whole college thing: We discovered that the GED and HiSet are only for students who are dropping out of high school. So, since I'm obviously not doing that, that's not what I need in order to take college courses while still in high school. Instead, there's something called "Dual Enrollment", where junior and senior high school students can enroll to take college courses while continuing high school. So, that's actually what I'm now planning to do, Lord willing. 😁
Hmm, well when I was young I called them by the respective Chinese paternal and maternal title: for maternal grandfather and grandmother is gōnggong and pópo, and for paternal is yéye and naǐnai. I didn’t call them exactly by those pronunciations as they’re for Mandarin 😅
😂 Paternal means on your father's side. Maternal means on your mother's side
Interesting! 😁 And, Henry, I agree, too!
We call both sets of grandparents Grandma and Grandpa
Changing the topic, I'm curious to know what everyone calls their grandparents--paternal and maternal? My siblings and I call our maternal grands-parents Grandpa and Grandma. And we called our paternal grandparents (they're both dead now) Pepere and Memere (pronounced PE-pay and ME-may--with the short e sound) 😊
It would be nice if everyone could have meaningful discussions instead of name-calling and censorship
I agree that telling someone that they’re blinded doesn’t help
That’s not what I’ve seen both online and in person. Most of the time I see the liberal calling the other “racist” or all of those names because a person supports Trump. Then they shut down any further dialogue
Saying this as a observation not a jab: I have found that debates/political discussions with liberals online have been more productive and kind then conservatives. We usually go away disagreeing, but we agree to do that. We don’t tell each other they are blinded. We respect each other throughout the entire conversation acknowledging the fact we may very well be wrong. Just an observation. FYI I usually am all good with you guys... except Sethers 😂 but yeah... is interesting.
Ok, so Charis got it right! 😜 1. true 😋 2. True-- when I was eight, I started wearing glasses. They weren't just reading glasses, so I wore them all the time. However, as of a couple years ago, I stopped wearing them all the time, since it wasn't necessary. So, now I just use them for reading, using the computer, doing school, or anything else where I need to look at something close up. (Like I'm wearing them right now 😏) And 3 is false... thankfully 🤣
Idk because your pfp is without you wearing glasses😂but I think I’ll go with Henry’s answer
😉 I'm gonna do a true or false thing now 😏. 1. I like asparagus 2. I wear glasses 3. I've been sprayed by a skunk before
There's also another test that I could take (similar to the GED) called the HiSet, that would accomplish the same goal basically. So, I'll have to decide which of them I would prefer 🤔... that's what I'm gonna have to research in order to decide cuz I'm not sure. 😅
Yeah, homeschoolers do get a diploma (and of course I still plan to finish highschool). As far as timing, it all depends on how things go and if the Lord wills. So, it could be near the end of this year or at the beginning of next year. But this week, I'm planning to look into this more to see what I need to do. 😄
what a GED is* The SAT has just writing, math, and essay, but they do have many subject tests. 😬 now that I think back on it
Yeah I do know what a GED; I’m thinking that it’s amazing you’ll have technically a high school diploma before you graduate high school. 😄 Do homeschoolers get a diploma, or do you need to take the GED? Also, will you be taking this year, next year?
The GED is an in-person test that covers all the main topics of study (language arts, mathematics, science, etc.) I suppose you could compare it to the SAT test. It's best to study for it before you take it (you can study for it online and it probably takes a couple months) After getting the GED, it would allow me (having not graduated from highschool yet) to be accepted into an online college, which would take 2 years to get an associate's degree (perhaps by the time I graduate from highschool), and 2 more for a bachelor's degree. I hope that made sense 😆
🤣 If I’m understanding correctly, you’ll have a GED before you graduate high school, and around the same time you do graduate you’ll have a degree? I’m a bit confused 😅
And, yeah, the spy thing runs deep in your family 🤣
No, it would probably be by the time I graduate from high school
is what I meant 😅 The GED would be the first step towards applying for a college.
Like I said, my grandfather was a communist… 😏😂 but that is amazing! Wait, you’d have a degree by the time you get a GED? 😅
...maybe cuz you ARE a spy! 🧐😏 Nah, just kidding. 😂 It could actually be a conformation from the Lord 🤷♂️
Wow! 😅 Henry, that is amazing that you should ask! Just this evening, my dad thought of the idea that I should start taking online college courses in Computer Tech or something with computers, in order to hopefully get a degree around the time I graduate. So, we were looking into that on different sites. Of course, in order to get excepted into a college at my age, I would have to first get a GED (General Education Development), which is a diploma equiv. basically. So, that's kind of the new plan, ig, and I find it amazing that you would just so happen to ask that on the very night when we started looking into that! 😁
Do you plan on going to college?
Yeah, I've accidentally hit the wrong emoji b4 😅
Hmm, ok. 🤔 Is that the deadline for making up your mind about the vax?
@Roger in-person is supposed to start spring, but 🤷
So, I think everyone has guessed now. 1. false 2. false 3. true 4... false 1.When I was little (2, 3, 4), I actually was more of an extrovert. I don't know how I pulled that off, but I'm definitely not the same these days. 😂 2. I've (thankfully) never had braces. (Micah, I don't know why you thought the "a few years" thing was so strange, cause my sister had braces for four years.) 3. I have been bitten by a tick (Micah, that's what it's called 😜). Thankfully, nothing came of a couple of the tick bites, but when I was six, my leg swelled up, and it was painful (I'm not sure if that particular one was a tick bite or a spider bite; it was one or the other, but I've never quite gotten that straight 😅). 4.And, believe it or not, the last one is false. (Micah, don't worry, I'm referring to my earthly father 😉). I have always been raised to call my father daddy. However, ever since a few years ago, when I write something to him, I call him dad, but when I'm speaking to him, it would feel unnatural to not call him daddy. So, there you have it! 😅
1 is definitely false😂 so 1. false 2. true 3. true 4. true
Not yet 😅 My bro and I will probably start sometime in early September. When do your in-person classes resume?
So, has school started for anyone else?
Sethers, did you want to take a guess?
1. true 2. false 3. true 4. true
ummm, ok…….😂 I’m gonna go with 1. False, 2. True, 3. True, 4. False.
... but I can't say, cuz that would be cheating 😜
I know the answers to these 😏😎
(1 False)(2False)(3False)(4True)
1. Heheh... False. 2. Um... a few years??? False. 3. Sense you do not get bitten by a tick, I would have to go with False sense it inserts itself into your skin and then starts sucking the blood. 4. Depends on which father. If you are talking about your worldly father, then yes, I would assume so, sense that is what the vast majority of parents teach their children to call them during the infant/toddler years. If, however it is your Heavenly Father, which I highly doubt you are talking about (but I just wanted to play it safe), then I would assume that you do not often call him ‘dad’ sense that is not what we are taught to call God. ~ Micah
Sorry, I have four 😅 1. I've always been an introvert 2. I had braces for a few years 3. I've been bitten by a tick 4. I most often call my father 'dad'
Sethers 🤦♂️😂 No can do 😜
Hmmm, seems to me like someone was cheating… 🤔
Enhhhh, knitting is…. I honestly can’t really figure it out. I did kinda get it but I don’t really like how knit looks anyways so I gave up
I’ll go with 1. true 2. false 3. false
No way, Charis! Knitting is great! Tho I'd love to learn how to crochet
Oh wow! I got everything opposite 😂 And I don't think anyone got it correct.
knitting is the worst 😂 I do crochet though
1. True, 2. False, 3. False.
should I tell y’all the answers now?
Idk even what ur talking about Roger.
Thx, Roger thinks it’s weird tho 😂
Hmm...could you specify at what point earlier? 😅 Do you mean the question I asked you about the points for this game?
He's saying he can't knit at all 😅
I knitted some scarves in elementary and thought it was fun, 😄 but I don’t remember how to now 😅
I know how to knit; it's fun! 😄 I can't knit clothes or hats (but I'd love to learn how), but stuff like bags and scarves
1. I can solve a Rubik’s cube. 2. I knit. 3. I’m allergic to coconut.
🤣 Charis, do you wanna go next?
I got it correct😂😂shocker😱😂
Thanks, Henry! 😊 Yeah, we all got it correct except Charis 😂😜
I probably should’ve made it harder with a false question 😅
Ah, I got it correct! 😏😅 And see, Sethers? you still got it 😂
Btw, nice profile pic Roger 😄
You still want to guess Sethers? 😆
Roger, oh man😂I wanted to win😂
Micah, that’s not true at all
@Henry, that's neat about the perspective on science! 😁 @Sethers, can't do that, buddy, sorry 🤣 @Micah, instead of politics, what do you think about the idea of the points for this game that Henry suggested? 😉 And what's your guess on the answer?
Real quick I am just going to tell Sethers my response. If you say that, does that mean ALL conservatives are anti abortion/anti homosexuality? Nope! I know some who aren’t! Also not all conservatives are Christians! Don’t make generalizations from the majority,
😂 I don't know. That might be fun. What does everyone else think?
😂 Should we have a point system in this group for true or false similar to the other groups with questions?
ok, Henry @Sethers, uh, I don't think that counts 😂😜
Ok, I’m going to go with what Henry said, whatever he says about the answer to the questions, I’m going to agree with so I win😝sorry I won guys😂
I’ll give the answers tomorrow
DNA is code, and the programmer is God. 😊 I remember reading about an atheist geneticist who believed in God after years of research on completing the human genome. No way such unimaginably complex code came into existence by chance. After all, every programmer would think you’re crazy if you said that a program wrote itself
That's a great way to look at it!
Yes! I can see why that would be fun 😃
Yes, but I think it’s fun when it 💡especially cs, which is why I’m studying it. 😅 Isaac Newton believed his works on calculus and physics was a form of worship (though he did write more on theology and was a heretic 😅) It’s been more motivating now that I see the difficult work with a new perspective: gaining a better grasp of God’s glorious and perfect creation, with all of the natural laws He made that govern the universe perfectly. 😄
Oh, wow 😬 Do you find calculus and all the computer stuff (cause you are studying computer science, right?) difficult? I would probably be like 😨
I fell behind my first year bc of covid and online learning, so I probably won’t have enough credits to transfer until maybe after next fall. Then I will have 2 more, much more difficult years. 😬
Oh 😬 Since you did a summer class, how many more years do you have?
Yep it starts today and with much harder classes
Hmm... is that legal to change it? 🤔 jk 😆 3. True
But yeah, I can’t slack off now like last semester 😅
😅 Actually, I change 3. My grandfather was a communist.
I'll say "all true", as well 😅
Henry, you made this very hard 😅 Hmm.... after much deliberation....1. ... true 2. ...true 3. true
1. A great-great uncle of mine was a KMT and knew Chiang Kai-Shek. 2. A great uncle of mine was in the Navy during WW2 and was on the sole surviving ship in a Japanese air attack. 3. I can’t slack off now b/c school starts today
Charis would! 😆😂...or Henry 😜
Who'd like to go next in true or false?
Alrighty! 😅 Maybe we should keep politics on Jesus 4 EVA? 😉
No Micah, all liberals go for abortion and BLM(which is Antifa)homosexuality(which is a sin)high taxes, high gas prices etc
Those who are more well known have to compromise, but I saw the list of what is needed to become a liberal/conservative and it said only most of their members agreed with abortion/homosexuality. Since I see 100% opposite motives by those in those parties to put that down when not true, I believe it.
Micah, they all think like that
Please name some in office who openly oppose it
Remember all Democrats don’t think that.
I don’t support killing babies and raising gas prices and taxes etc
I am joking😂😂I would never be a demon crat
Ummm, Sethers, I'm floored 😳 Plz explain 😂
😂 yeahhhh I kinda figured when everyone was guessing it was false that it was probably true
Y-you're a democrat, Sethers?? 😶 I never would've guessed...
*utter confusion showing on my face as a fall down on my face, unconscious
the answer is 1: true 2: true 3: false
It’s hard. I had a bad day playing last week and that was really hard to get through 😬
I have a friend who plays golf… Kinda cracks me up bc I can’t see her having patience for that 😂
False 🙄 false false. Btw I play golf 😊
Maybe wait a bit for Micah to try 🤷♀️
when do I tell what is true and what was false?
False, true, true (I was already gonna do that b4 you guys guessed 😂)
😆 1. false 2. true 3. true
Sethers, 1: False, 2. True, 3. False
Henry 😆 You'd better be sure 😝
1: I am a democrat 2: I play golf 3: I have a car
Yeah, Henry 😂 Lemme guess, you knew the answers, but you decided to act like you didn't quite know, so that we wouldn't suspect that you're a spy 😆 No, no, I'm definitely just kidding, but you are really guessing these correctly
So, Sethers, why don't you do one? 😜
Still doesn't count, Henry, if you ended up going with your second guess... sorry 😕😏😂
Well, that was actually my first guess 😏
No, sorry. Doesn't work that way 😏
fr? I don’t get any credit? *sigh*
Yeah, sure. Your third doesn't count 😂
All true was my third guess
Who would like to go next?
That’s probably why he chose it 😂
I’m shocked you believe in gun rights Micah
Btw, @all, plz check Theological Debates Overflow. 😉 A new girl has joined and wants to have a small debate over there 😁
Oh, wow! You've been to Israel?! Cool! 😁 You believe in gun rights!!?? 😱😂 Well that's good news! 😅😆
😏 Now we'll see what Micah says. I probably got it right 😂 (just kidding, I could be wrong)
Wow, just realized that we each did a different combo 😂
1. True 2. False 3. False
1. False, 2. True, 3. True
I hate to say this because it’s so stupid that you wouldn’t believe this but 1 is false
😏 I'll say: 1. false 2. true 3. false
1 I believe in gun rights. 2 I have been to Israel. 3 I like Indian food.
Micah, you haven't done one yet 😅 Maybe you could put some up for us to try our hand at 😉
Ummm, idk 🤷🏼♂️😂 You probably did...
🤣 Roger, did I see that chase?? I don't remember it. That would totally NOT be fair if you had, and I hadn't 😒😂 (jk)
🤣Yeah 😉 With the most recent chase, there were about three sheriff cars going down the road behind our house (to get to a spot where the car was headed, in order to block him) And then shortly after they went by, the car they were chasing came speeding down the road in front of our house, with about 6 or 7 sheriff cars and SUVs behind him in hot pursuit. 🚓😅 I hope they caught him.
👀😂 I knew you had a bike, 😉 and wow that is interesting about the police chases
Ok, so....Henry got it right again! 😄😂 (so did Sethers 😉) I mean, Henry! Are you spying on me or what?! 🤣 So, 1 is false: I'm not scared of the dark. Now, of course, there are disclaimers to that. If you placed me in the middle of a deep jungle full of wild animals at night when it's pitch black...ok 🙄😂 But, as for your typical "in the dark" scenarios, like just being in the house at night, THAT I'm NOT scared of 😝 #2 is true bc I own a bike, and a bike is a vehicle 😜 #3 is also true. I've actually seen two police chases in person b4, both of them on one of the roads that go in front of and behind our house.
I’m going with Henry’s answer
uh, 1. True, 2. False, 3. True
I'll give Charis a chance to guess, if she wants to, and then I'll give the answer 😉
Ok, back to what Roger was doing 😅
Oh, I want to add a PS, real quick, to my post about the gems. No need to respond, just as long as you see it 😉 We also aren't using the gems as some good-luck charms or for some supernatural power-- we aren't using them for anything for that matter. I don't even remember when the last time was that we saw them. They're just sitting in a little box somewhere in our possessions. So, I don't see what the devil would get out of that.
Ok, Micah, while you were gone we played "true or false", so maybe we can resume it for a while, now that your back 😉 I can go next, since I had some ready 😂 (btw, Micah, you have to guess which of these are true and which are false) 1. I'm scared of the dark 2. I own a vehicle 3. I've seen a police chase in person
I understand, but I am quite of the persuasion this was from the Lord, considering what I know about the experience. Anyway, let's just drop it 😉
I’m not saying you guys are wrong, but satan can make you feel like it’s the presence of GOD. He is really good at deception.
Yeah, you can know when something is from God or not; it doesn't always have to be this weird, clouded thing where you're like, "Well, I don't know. It could be from God, but maybe it isn't. It's hard to tell." I'm pretty certain it is from the Lord. What would be the point in the devil doing that? It's not like we're worshipping the gems or something. In fact, after my mom discovered them, we all knelt down and praised God for who He is.
... and bc Silent Warrior is going to leave Marilyn alone, now, I'll respond on here, to what you said. 😉 So, I obviously know that satan performs tricks, and that we need to be careful to test the spirits; and I even told her that (she deleted my comment, ofc 😂) So, yes, that's true; but as I said in the deleted comment, I do not believe that this experience was from satan. You can't just assume that bc it sounds weird. As you can see, the presence of the Lord was all over that experience, and the presence of the Lord is what makes all the difference. 😊 There was nothing weird, demonic, or unbiblical about the experience. As it says in the Bible, every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from God.
Ah, very preceptive, my young lad 😏 But you don't have to go blabbing it all over the place, ya know? 😅 It's my wittle secret, shhhh 😎
So who’s Silent Warrior? 😂😏
Maybe…. But last year the scores were really high… Maybe it’s bc we’re not stuck inside with nothing better to do😂
🤷♂️ Ig it’s cuz of covid? Idk.
Yeah, idk what’s up with that this year…. Lots of people have just been lacking motivation
this year I didn’t really feel motivated.
@Micah, same 😂 I don’t think my sister’s been studying enough for that to happen tho
I don’t think it’s my year Agent 😂 I might go tho if my sister does. 😊 Alsoi was exposed to a really close friend who got really sick at camp (covid)
Hey, it's kind of interesting, bc a couple days ago, I was looking thru some old posts on one of the groups, and I noticed that Nadia has changed her account name to "Happy"; and the last name initial was "P", so I'm guessing she put "Person" for the last name. So, "Happy Person"...🤔🤷🏼♂️😅 Maybe it's her way of letting us know that she's still happy? 😂 Anyway, she also changed her picture to just a blank blue.
Yeah, that's great to hear! 😃 @Agent, 😆
Henry, I'm glad to hear that it's coming back 😊 I hope you get it back fully, soon
It’s gradually coming back, but it’s still not that good
r u making fun of me and Micah at the same time? 😑
Btw, Henry, have you gotten your taste/smell back, yet?
Yo, Micah, did someone sneeze on you or sum? 🤣
Yo, Micah, are you ready to qualify? 😂
Yeah, I've heard that if someone who has been vaxxed comes into contact with the virus in the "wild", that could be really bad. 😬 Btw, the creator of the PCR test, himself said that the PCR test is NOT meant to be used for the purpose ppl are using it for 🤦♀️
I got it because I was exposed and the vax doesn’t make you 100% immune 😂 🤦♂️ also I tested negative 😌
Btw, Charis, glad to hear that your sister's doing better! 😊
Bruh, fr?? 🤦♂️😂 Why'da have to go get the stupid covid test, if you already got the fake vax? *ahem* Answer: Bc the "vax" doesn't even keep you from getting covid 🙄 And, Charis, he probably got the nasal swab test 😏
Fun fact: None of my family's ever gotten a PCR test
Micah did you test + or -?
Huh. What test was it? I’ve gotten two oral swab tests and they’re not bad
👌 Btw people. I just got my first covid test 😬 it was terrible. Made me sneeze for like 2 mins.
Oh that's so wonderful! 😄 I'm glad to hear that!
Update on my sister: She and my mom drove home and her fever was gone Sunday. They’re actually on their way up to the Air BnB we’re staying at now and should get here tonight.
Oh, hey, Micah! You're finally back! 😄
Henry, you're like hitting these right on! 😂 Do you have some secret answer key you're looking at? 😆 1. Of course it's true. The famous person is Jesus. 2. That aunt is my dad's oldest sister, and she had a daughter, who had a daughter, who--yep, you guessed it--had a daughter. 😅 And then 3. Is definitely false, cause Richard died in 2001, and I wasn't even born then. But my dad met him and his wife once at the hotel that he was bellman at.
For some reason I don't think Charis will be on for a while, so I probably shouldn't wait for her 😅
1. I personally know someone who's world famous. 2. I have an aunt who's a great-grandmother. 3. I've met Richard Wurmbrand.
Yeah, I know 😬 Btw, I forgot to mention that his name was Roger; hence, my middle name 😊
Wow that’s very interesting. Can’t imagine what that must be like 😬
You got it right! 😄 So, yep, my grandfather on my dad's side (who is not alive anymore), was in WWII, and he was actually a POW at the hands of the Nazis. He had to go thru some pretty horrific stuff, including getting some of his toes amputated (they had gangrene) WITHOUT any anesthesia 😬 And, also, my Jewish uncle is my mom's brother-in-law, tho he's a secular Jew, I think...
Ok here are some 😉 1. My grandfather fought in WWII 2. I'm an uncle 3. I have a Jewish uncle
That's very interesting! 😅
Yeah, he can make all types of sounds when he feels strongly about something. I’ve heard him enough to think he has the potential to say “I love you” kind of like that husky on YouTube, but so far I’ve only gotten him to bark, growl, and grunt on command. 😅
Wow! 😅 Yeah, I've read that golden retrievers are very vocal dogs
Roger is right! If you didn’t see him, you’d probably think he’s a real mean dog. He often scares us from barking all of the sudden very loudly. 😅 He’s a good house alarm. I think the world record for the loudest bark is from a Golden Retriever
Yeah, sorry to hear that 😟 I'll pray for her 🙏
May I ask where in NC are you going? Cause as you know, we live in NC, and that would be so neat, if you were going to be somewhere nearby (not that we'd be able to meet you or anything.😅)
Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. I will definitely pray.
Hey guys, my family just left on a road trip to NC today and my little sister got sick…. She threw up a little while ago and she has a fever. If you could pray for her and that this won’t complicate things too much. Thanks!
1. True, 2. True, 3. True
1. My dog likes and interacts with the owners of dogs more than the dogs themselves. 2. My dog has a cute bark that wouldn’t frighten anyone walking by the house. 3. My hair is longer than my mom’s.
Ohh! ok 😅 Ummm, I think it was just for keeps sake... but that was back when I was like 9, and I don't think I would do that these days 😂
I still have baby teeth in my mouth…. I normally throw mine away when I lose them 😂 And…. why would you keep hair…..?
Ahhh! 😂 Yes, I still have most of my baby teeth. And once, I got quite a length of my hair cut (no shorter than shoulder length), and I kept it in a bag for a long while until we moved 😅
🤔 Heeey... that makes me wonder... when you said you still have baby teeth, do you mean you still have them in your mouth or just still have them in your possession? 😅 See, now I have to clarify. Btw, I still have all of my baby teeth... in a bag 😆
🤣 I thought the SAME THING!! Duh 😅 Just shows how much Vera and I think alike 😂
anyways, that’s why I figured you said it was false I was just hoping that thats idea was absurd enough that you wouldn’t really consider it 😆 turns out you did
Dahhh, why do I have such bad luck with pressing buttons?? I didn’t mean to send it yet 😂
Wow! ok, I was totally off... how did you ever get a rac--oooh! Wait, you mean you have a raccoon jaw in your possession 😂 Right? cause I was thinking you had it in your mouth 😅 That's why I didn't say true for that one
Okay… It’s 1. True, 2. False, 3. True.
No, I'm not 😂 I stand by my guess...
I don't think he's gonna change his mind 😅
Uhh, I was gonna do the same as Vera. 😅
Um, 1. False, 2. True, 3. False 😅
Whoops, there are 2 twos....
I'll go.
1. I still have baby teeth. 2. I have a nephew. 2. I have a raccoon jaw. 😛
😰😢😢 I'm really going to miss you.
I'm going to do like Nadia did and leave my groups, but I'm fine.
Does anyone else want to take a turn? 😄
Ohh, so it wasn’t a trick question. I was originally thinking that you liked cooking out of the three. 😂
ohhhhhhhhhh, I thought you were trying too trick us into thinking you didn't like spiders so we wouldn't get the right answer.
Ok, so, this is what it is: 1. false, 2. true, 3. false. I don't like watching sports (sorry to all the sports lovers, but I think sports shows are boring 😂 And my family isn't into sports, anyway). I do like to cook. And I HATE spiders 😬😳 I don't even like the tiniest one *shivers*.
😂 Ok, now moi turn. True or false? 1. I enjoy watching sports__2. I like to cook__3. I like spiders
...I was in the womb, if that's what you meant...
Your parents went there before you were born…
Actually, it's 1: true 2: true 3: false 😄 So, I've been to Niagara Falls and the Grand Canyon, but not Mount Rushmore. With the Grand Canyon, I've been there, but I've never seen it in person. 😏 Now, figure THAT out. 😝
1: (blank); 2: (blank); and 3: (blank) 😏 See? I'm so smart 😜
You're supposed to go like: 1. (and then you say if you think it's "true" or "false") then 2. (true or false) and so on. Get it now? 😉
1 you've been to Niagara Falls?
you have to guess which statements are true, and which are false
1. I've been to Niagara Falls__2. I've been to the Grand Canyon__3. I've been to Mount Rushmore
How about we play "true or false"? 😉 I'll start.
Hehe 😏 Well I gotcha now! 😆
Enhhhhh..... Regretting checking the message wall....... 😂
Hey, Charis, today is the last day of the contest on The Bible Brigade 😄...would it be possible for you to review the verses you have on there, please? 😊 Bc that would help boost the verses even closer to the finish line, and we're almost there, at only 92 verses left! 😃 Thanks!
Yeah, that's too bad 😕 But thanks for the update! 😉
I'm glad she's doing well and that she's meeting new friends 😊, but it is sad that she can't come on here. Thanks for writing all that up! 😁
she’s met and approves of and since we haven’t met in person…. sadness. But I totally understand that. Just a little sad since we became pretty good friends last year 🤷♀️ (Sorry about the three messages 😂 I didn’t mean to send the second one when I did so that’s why it’s cut off…)
And she’s on the Bible Bee participant community on her mom’s account but I think her mom’s only allowing her to connect with people that
Ah, no. So, she actually messaged me on the zoom app thingy but then her email was deleted? So since the zoom account was made with the email I couldn’t message her anymore… She’s doing good though. She and her family have been driving up to a church in Michigan for various events and they really like it there. Nadia’s happy because there are Christian teens there that she’s become friends with….
Charis, have you by any chance gotten any reply from Nadia to your email? 😊 I don't mean to bug you, just curious...
@Micah, that’s silly! 😂 You can’t get on to someone because they don’t want to wear a mask! And, you don’t know God doesn’t want them to 😉 They have their own convictions and please respect that 😊
Anywho, if they ever change their policy (which I HIGHLY doubt they will), the lady manager said they'll contact me
Don't worry, Aaron, I won't 😉 Micah, call it what you'd like, but I have my reasons, and that's the decision my parents and I have made. 🤷♀️ God knows that, so don't you think that if He had wanted me to work there, He would have kept the door open and not closed it? Anyway, it's fine if you don't understand. It's not worth squabbling over 😅
ahem... If you happen to get into a theological debate on here, please transfer it over to one of the two debate groups:
Saying you wont wear a stupid mask isn't being a light, its just dumb. Why will you not wear a mask? Its not like God wants you not to! Yielding an inch? This isn't a sin or evil! If someone tells you to do something, then you should do it! As long as it doesn't break Gods commands. You made a bad choice. But its yours to make. All stupid politics. If they told you to wear a face sheild would you? What about a scarf? My goodness.
And, ok! I hope you have fun! 😃
Micah, I may sound stupid, and I don't care if I do, but I'm not going along with this game any longer. As much as it's really disappointing that this had to happen, I can't keep going along, even if it means sacrificing my job. I have to take a stand, because if I give them even an inch, they'll take a mile. If they know they can get good help while continuing with this, they're going to keep doing it; but maybe, if they get a enough resistance, then they'll see that ppl aren't going to put up with this baloney. I believe it's apart of the agenda, and sometimes it takes sacrifice to get your freedom back. I don't think they will change, but I have to take a stand and draw the line somewhere. I may not understand the why for all this, but I believe God had me there for that short time to be a light.
Also I am leaving for camp so I won’t be back until like Tuesday/wenesday (the first week of August)
Meh, if it was something like masks I would have said “what the heck, why not.” and threw one on, because why sacrifice my job. But I understand if they told you to get vaxed or sum. I know a lot of people who don’t want to feel pressured into getting it, and I believe that’s fine. I would really like to know tho, unless you don’t wanna tell.
my bro got a first timers dream job, he liked it A LOT, and there was high pay.
If nothing had come up, it would've been way too good to be true. It was like a first timer's "dream job" 😌 So, it shouldn't be a shock to me that this happened
ok, and I think I know why.😉😬
Ok, so, I know this is going to sound crazy to some of you, and some of you may think I'm really weird, but I had to leave the job. I don't really want to go into the details, but it has to do with this whole Covid thing. (You guys may be able to guess what it was about.) But I am not able to work there unless I comply, and I cannot. I was soooo terribly disappointed, and so were the managers. I was only about an hour into the preliminaries, when this came up. As I said, I'm extremely disappointed, but I know that God has better plans for me. I must lay this down and trust that He knows what's best and that He knows the end from the beginning. Please pray for me that God would give me grace to let this go quickly and fully.
Vera, your at work now right, the time zone is different for us, so I think your about 30 min in
I'll have to see if I can check that out 😊
This was one I saw: https://youtu.be/EDn_EJ3NnLQ
Woah, that is CRAZY!!! 😱😂
or driving with only two wheels on a side touching the ground
I don't think I've seen videos, but in a book I have, I think they talked about the Arab driving 😂
Drifting on the highway at over 100mph
No, I don't think I have 😅
Have you seen Arab drivers on YouTube? 😬
People in China also drive like maniacs. 😂 Everyone honks their horns and expect pedestrians and other drivers to move out of the way. 😬 I remember being on a ride with the driver speeding on a very narrow road in the mountains without any safety railing. 😱
😱 I remember watching a YouTube video of a European guy driving his Mustang at 150 mph on the Autobahn 😬
There's a major highway in Europe called the Autobahn where there's only a speed limit SUGGESTION, but you're allowed to go as fast as you are comfortable with 😬 We'd be on that highway put-putting along at 65-70 mph, and there were ppl flying past us like we were stopped 😱😆
lol 😂 You guys haven't seen the half of it 🤣 In Hungary, where we lived, they drive like MANIACS!! 😅 Take a drive with your typical Hungarian in the driver's seat, and you'll feel like you're at the amusement park! 😂
when people visit us in Texas, and they go driving they get so lost when they try to follow us. 😂 we just say welcome to Texas draving. 😂
Wow, everybody! Tis crazy!! Yeah, we don't live right in the city, so ppl still at least have a bit of decency, here 😂 But yeah, sometimes cars tailgate each other so that they can all get thru right as the light's turning red 🤷♀️
The other day I saw a bus driver step on the gas when the light turned red. 😂🤦♂️ Yesterday I saw a car accident while walking my dog
People here see the speed limit and take it as a suggestion. Also they have this thing called the “three second rule.” If the stop light turns red you have three seconds to get to the other side 😂 🤦♂️
Texas drivers are awful. Because they got places to be and they’re obviously more important than everyone and all the rules 😛
Cool! 😁 Wow, yeah, that must be quite the challenge 😅
That sounds a bit daunting 😬 Nice!! 😅
Driving in the city is tough, esp where I live.😅 Road rage everywhere, supposed two way roads that only fit 1 an a half cars…
Micah, no, I don't know how to drive, yet 😅 But, I already told you what can kind of car would be ideal for me 😏
😂 Thanks for the encouragement... I think I have like almost half of the hours in already. I would probably almost be done, except my 20 yr old sister is also learning how to drive, so we take turns 😅
ah Vera don't feel bad both of my sisters didn't get there's till 21! 😂
that shouldn’t be tooo hard.
Thing is, since the whole Covid thing came up, the DMV has stopped doing road tests fn. So, even tho I'm 18, and would normally not have to keep a driving log, I now have to complete 60 hrs of driving, 10 of those being at night, in order to be eligible for a license...
I'm working toward getting my license. I have a permit 😅 And I don't know what car I would want to get 🤷♀️
Can u drive yet? And what car r u gonna get?
Besides, no one would believe that I was 16, cuz I look puny. 🤣
😂 Makes me want to get a job, but it's not quite time, yet 😒
I'm going to be working in the deli/bakery of a grocery store called Food Lion 😅 It hasn't even been a week since I applied. Friday can't come fast enough!! I just hope that nothing comes up between now and then...
Yeah! I'm hired and starting work on Fri at 12 😃
Nice Vera! I would probably choose the place I think i would enjoy working at too.
Btw Agent if u see any doubles in my playlist plz let me know. Also if u have any suggestions I can make it so u can edit it.
The two managers that interviewed me seemed a bit surprised that I was 18. The lady said I look younger, but she thinks I sounded older on the phone 😂 Umm, yeah, hehe! I'll probably get that quite a bit 😅
Anyway, I went for one of the interviews today, and it went very well, actually, praise the Lord! They have to call me back about a couple of things, but it looks like it will probably be a go. 😀 The only thing is, I'm probably going for an interview at the other place tomorrow, and that one's closer. But, the managers and employees at the one today were very friendly and totally put me at ease, as opposed to the other location. I have my hopes set on working there. 😊
Good! I have verses due, myself 😅
Oh! I see... That's it! Get them back up there! 😉
Don't tell me Hacker Cat hacked into your account and took most of your verses? 🤔
Micah, where'd all your verses go? 😅 Btw, did you see the message that Roger said you may add the verses on TBB? 😊
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/62UgNNe1Y6HO6RoLV2NjhV?si=tBIyrauWQbOgRRU-mciRgg&dl_branch=1
Srry I’ll work on it rn. should be done in like 15 mins.
Hey Micah. Where’s that playlist you said would be done Sunday…? 🤨 I need music 😂
Yeah, more of a warm, cozy picture 😏 Micah's was blah, sorry 🤢
😂 I do, three! Which, it's already changed, and I like it, now 😅
umm... shrinks into bed, says nervously, I dooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
😂 How come I'm seeing this message pop up all over the place? 🤔Micah? *looks at you with puppy dog eyes* 🥺 May I plz change it? Ok, who votes to change the group pic? I DOOO!!!! ✋😂
Micah I added your verses to my group
Micah 😞 I REALLY am not crazy about the new pics you did for all your groups...may I change them? PLEASE??? 😊 Besides, whenever you do a new pic, or go into the group description to edit it, it messes up the edges of the picture and makes it all fuzzy 😬
I already had asked you and you said that I could do it 😂
Maybe u should have checked w/me first? 🤷♂️
😂 You told me I could change the name of your group 🤷🏼♂️
Where is the group I made? All I see is some weird group that someone else made. 😠
Agent, cool! 😁 I had a feeling that you traced it. @BM, yeah. 😂 That's basically what the Cybertruck is. 😆
oh I thought it was a triangle with wheels.😂
Well, I mainly traced it. Which worked out since it’s Nameless’ and he’s a stick figure…
Hey, Agent, I noticed your new pfp! 😁 Did you draw that Tesla Cybertruck?
😏 and of all of you guys, I'll be the first to find out from Vera how everything went...
yay! hope everything good well
I’ll be praying that it goes well. 😊
Lord willing, I'm going to be going for a job interview on Thursday, and I'm kinda nervous about it 😬 I'm an introvert and really bad at this kind of thing. 😶 I really hope it goes well
Yeeep *gives self a big pat on the back* 😏 (jk) it actually wasn't that hard once I set my mind to it; it's just I really should have taken the hints! 😅
Ya, I found it after I had said that 😏 We didn't tell each other, btw
No, u found it. Nice job.
Micah 😫 I...can't... find... your... group! 😢 Can I pweeze have more hints?? 😟
ooooooh that makes so much more sense.
😂 I get it. She said, "Well, BM, I was going to get the game, but we didn't have..." (That's why punctuation really comes in handy, sometimes 😉😆
I meant do you know bm 1, cuz you said he was going to get the game but WE didn't have enough IOS.
New group my peeps. Find it three admins, no cheating by telling others, good luck.
This Bible Memorizer, ⬇️ is Bible Memorizer II. The other one (with the hawk pic) is Bible Memorizer I. 😂
Yeah, it just took awhile 😅 Umm, not sure what you mean? are you the second BM? idk
Were you able to update the device?
well, BM I was going to get the game but we didn’t have new enough iOS.... I’m sad now
Everyone who hasn't already done so, plz check The Bible Brigade. We are going to be starting an event, and rn is the time to register. 😁
Should have the playlist done on Sunday.
with a chance of anvils….. oh dear… 😂 Looks like fun
I have to update my phone to download it 🙃
yeah that's it Henry, Vera that's why it's only on App Store.
I’ll download it when I get home
Is it Partly, not party? I found a “Partly Cloudy Skies”
ok. do you have an apple device for a phone?
I don't play video games, either 😂
Aaron, I don't play video games 😅 I looked it up just to check it out, but I couldn't find it
Henry, 😬 I hope you'll be able to get it all done on time
and if you don't play video games, could you at least get it and not play it. 😂 I know it sounds weird but for real. 😂
hey guys if your allowed to get any mobile video game, you should get a new game called party cloudy skies. my cousin made it and he's only 17! there are different hats you can collect and each one has a different ability, it's basic but really fun!
That reminds me, I still have a bunch of work to do 😅
Oh, ok! I don't know why I was thinking the 15th 😅
Henry, was yesterday the last day of your summer class?
Yes, Henry and Agent, it is! 😂
👌 I will be working on it. Let u know when finished
Ooh, I want this playlist…. I use Spotify
that game thingy actually sounds very entertaining 😂
What app do u listen to music on Agent? I have a playlist on amazon music I think you’d like, but if u r on Spotify or sum, I can create it 😬 tho it’d take a while.
😂 I would think that it makes doing puzzles all the more fun
When ever they do puzzles I usually watch them and sometimes help them out a little. 😂
🤦♀️ Roger, did you really have to? 🙈
Yeah 😆 It's kind of complicated to explain, and it will seem kinda weird to you, but we basically do that the puzzle pieces are all forming "companies" and some of them start off as being "independent, small companies", and say that they aren't going to become "high and mighty" like the "big companies". But then, in the end, they all end up in one big company (the finished puzzle) 😂 I know, sounds weird, but it'd make more sense if you saw us doing it in person...😅
Usually Roger and I will play some game while doing puzzles 😅
puzzles are nice to do while listening to music or in silence.... It's relaxing
Puzzles are kinda hard and a little bit boring. 😂 But they're ok.
😂 Yeah, I'd like to do one of those, too... as long as they aren't boring
Well, if I HAD one of those, I'd probably like it, too 😅 But the biggest puzzles I even posses are only 1,000 pieces.
I like doing 2,000-5,000 piece puzzles.
Henry, I like your new pfp 😁
Uh, hmm...well, with both of us doing it, I'd say that your guess is as good as mine 😅
Henry, depending on how much you do if it in a day, how motivated you are, and how many ppl are working on it, it could take from probably 2-5 days. Roger, how long would you say it takes us on average?
I like doing puzzles--big puzzles 😅
I don’t remember when I last played with puzzles. 😅 How long does it usually take to complete a 1000-piece puzzle?
Do any of you like to do puzzles? I do, and especially the really big ones. 😀 Vera and I have done several 1,000-piece puzzles, and they're really fun! 😊 I also definitely prefer puzzles that have a wide variety of colors and don't have a huge "plain" area 😅
Ummm, not exactly 😂 The thought just occurred to me the other day that I could find your family on BMM site 😏
😂 wow! you must have really been desperate.😂
But alas, it wasn't a recent picture
No, I looked up Baptist Mid-Missions and looked thru all their missionaries until I found the family that fit the bill 😎
how? you looked on our website?
Oh, Micah, I hadn't seen that before I posted... lol 😆
...I hope that didn't creep you out or anything 😏😅 The way I found out was that Vera found a picture from 2016 of your family. 😊 You can probably guess how...
I had a dream where I was blonde. 😏
Oh, ok. 🤷♂️😂 Well, it looked dirtyblonde to me...😏
See, Roger? I told you it was brown 😏
wow Roger lots of people say I have dirty blonde hair! but I actually have brown hair. 😂
Well, that wasn't exactly where I was going with it, but now that you say that... Ohh! 😏 That means you have dirtyblonde hair AND you're 13! 😂
ahh I see your questions will lead to my age. 😂
yes I have two older brothers and two older sister
BM, just curious, do you have an older brother?
I'm not really sure how I got all the color names. 🤔 Most were probably from crayons, but the coral pink was actually from a shirt that I have (which I'm actually wearing rn😂), and I saw the color in the clothes magazine it was advertised in.
Oh yeah 😂 I’m wondering how you get the color names. Are they from crayons?
😂 If you do a Google search on a color, it should come up with it, so you can see what it looks like
What are all of these two-worded colors? I have no idea what they look like 😅
Oh! another one of my favorite colors is coral pink 😊
😂 The only clothes of mine that are black are my boots, a dress skirt, a corduroy skirt, and...some skirts and a dress with black behind the flower designs. Yeah, I think that's all I think... probably only 3% of my clothes
Micah 😂 Basically the only clothes I have that are all black are just a few pairs of black socks 😆
idk…. black is pretty cool. Definitely one of my top favorite colors 😂
I mean, 75% of my clothes r black.
Oh, ok! 😅 Btw, it's not that I don't like black at all and can't stand it. I like black in it's proper prospective. For example, appliance parts and electronics--I don't mind if they're black; I actually prefer that some things be in black. But I don't like it in other contexts.
I don't like it by itself but I like black and red together and blue and black together.
I mean, what's so attractive about black? 🤷♀️
Yeah, I don't like black 😂
Ok...I don't know why so many of you like the color black, tho 🤷🏼♂️🤔😂 Definitely not one of my favs
Yeah, I've never tried it, I don't think, so idk either 🤷🏼♂️😂
I think you get some ugly brown color actually but I might be wrong xD
Actually, if you combine all the colors, you get black 😜
No..... White is all of the colors.... right?
😂 Actually white is the lack of color
ok, can you say that black is your favorite color (IK I said black was one of mine) since it’s technically the lack of color?
😂 You two...🤦🏼♂️😆 Might as well come on here and say "My favorite colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, black, brown, and white" 😅
pastel pink ... sooo pretty!
Same, Vera! I like teal, turquoise, mint green, certain shades of brown that I’m not entirely sure how to describe, pastel pink, gray, black….. ummm, 😂 Yeah, a LOT. It’d be easier to say my LEAST favorite colors (orange and yellow)
Yeah, I have a hard time picking a favorite of anything, and this is no exception 😂 I like turquoise, maroon, violet, and mint green... yeah, I have a lot more...
I don’t have one particular favorite color, but I also like blue 😁
Ok, kind of an original question 😂 But I'm interested to know what everyone's favorite color is 😁 Mine is 🔵
I’m fine now tho 😂 I went golfing yesterday ⛳️ 🏌️
Wow, yeah, sorry to hear that 😕
Oh, wow, I'm sorry 🙁 I will be praying for you
Nah, I’ve been feeling crummy in my nose and throat sense saturday and had two straight days with 102’ fever.
ummm, probably... maybe. Cause when I had *ahem* covid last month, I only had one day of feeling like really bad (dizziness, extreme weakness, and drainage; but no sore throat, and I don't know if I had a fever). And then after that, I recovered pretty quickly, except for a whole week of no taste or smell... Sooo if you had the same thing I did, I would think you would be feeling better, by now
Are you doing better than a few days ago?
Aanywaay, we were already kinda off that topic...
And what u complained about
Not if they saw what the US was really like
😂 wow... and I honestly don't think the believers in China would look down on us, by rather ENCOURAGE us as fellow brothers and sisters in the Lord 😉
USA ,the United States of America. do we seem united a lot? No. But do we get murdered by the government, poisoned, and gased? do we have no freedom of religion under death? do we have no rights to have as many children as we want or teach them what we want? Do we have little to no way to learn about Jesus and what he did for us? Maybe the government IS corrupt but we still have freedom! Stop complaining and saying we are more communist then China. I think that the Christian martyrs in China would look down on you for saying that. Be correct. Not conservative conspirators.
Could you please explain? I'm a bit confuzzeled 🤔
😐 Ok, why hasn't Micah come on THE WHOLE ENTIRE DAY!!?? 😂 And he wasn't on for practically the whole day yesterday, either. 🤔 Hopefully he didn't mosey off on a vacation without telling us! 😮😅
Yes, exactly. Just like the US is supposed to be a democratic republic, where the people have a say in what goes on in the government, but these days it's become more a fascist regime. The government is basically run by cooperations, whose leaders are 🤑 ppl, that bribe politicians into carrying out their biddings. In order to actually figure out who's running the gov, just follow the money trail 😏
Yeah, the communists win with deception, with all of their false promises such as what’s going on in the US
Oh, I had to take Chinese for 3 years to graduate😅 Well, if you look at China’s economic system, the are not communist, but they are a totalitarian state. They have 12 core socialist values, but they don’t follow most of them. I guess if you mean the core as in totalitarian one party rule with no rights for the people while calling themselves the people’s republic
Also, Henry, yeah, I WAS learning French, when the school season was still in session. 😬 (I've been doing French since I started high school) 😣 But, thankfully, we're finally on summer break, and I'm pretty sure that I'm done with French completely. 😅 Like I won't be doing it in 11th or 12th grade...I think 🤔...I hope! 😨😬
So, yeah, China's communist, but if you think about it, the US is thoroughly communist as well, they're just trying to keep that a secret...
Yes, and you know why they call themselves communist when the US spends more on that stuff? 😏 *whispers* It's because the US has basically turned into a communist nation. It may still seem on the outside that is what it's supposed to be, but really, at the core, it communist. And that will become much more evident as time goes on...
Yeah, it may not help the poor much (at all), but it works out quite well for the cooperators
Their party members sure are rich though
Are you currently learning French Roger? 😅 Yeah, I’m glad I learned about the reality of China; many people here seem to not know or care. It’s tempting when the Chinese gov offers large sums of money in exchange for intellectual info or your education to work and build their “communist” regime. I’m not sure how they consider themselves communist when the US spends much more on social welfare programs. 🤔
That's funny 😂 Oh, wow! Things would probably have turned out a lot differently if you had gone there... or worse yet, become a communist agent 😱
Lol 😂 Good thing you didn't become one, or else you might've been spying on us on here, instead of chatting with us 😆 Yeah, I can imagine that those Chinese teachers were a lot more easy going than the other guy 😅 My oldest sister, when learning French, had the privilege of being taught by a friend of ours in Belgium, who, of course, spoke French fluently. Me on the other hand...😬
maybe I could have been a communist agent 😎😏
Universities with the program had to either shut it down or give up federal funds
😂 He gives out very hard tests and has very high expectations to get an A, but the other two teachers I had who were Chinese were chill. 😃 😂 I was about to live there over the summer of 2019 for a program my teacher recommended. Luckily I didn’t go bc Confucius Institute, who was hosting the program, was shut down by the gov bc of the institute’s connections with the CCP and their propaganda office. 😅
Boom. Knew it. 😅 I knew that you had a Chinese background (don't ask why 😆) Don't worry, I'm not a spy for the CIA or anything 😏😎 But, yeah, that's neat 😃 I know you told us you've been to China, but have you ever actually lived there? That's pretty funny about the professor 😂
Neat! 😃 I can imagine! Oh, wow! 😂 Was that bc he didn't pronounce things correctly, or?...
I don’t know if it’s harder than French, but overall it was okay for me, probably bc I have a Chinese background. Memorizing how to write and read characters with the correct tone is definitely hard though. Something interesting is that the most difficult Chinese teacher I had was not a Chinese person but a white guy who’d never been China. 😅😂
hi! got internet, but I'm about to leave to the conference.
Wow! That's cool, Henry! 😁 I'm sure that's a lot harder than French 😅
Oh! Very interesting! Was it difficult?
我会一点儿汉语。I studied Chinese in high school, but I forgot most of it already. 😅
Oh! So do you know Chinese? 😅
Are you studying Spanish?
Yk, if we were having a live convo, and you were speaking Spanish, and I were speaking French, that wouldn't fly 😂
Yeah... it’s a golf tourney... very interesting.
Oh! Micah, if you're bored, maybe you can hop on over to The Bible Brigade and get some points 😉
@Micah, Rocket Mortgage Classic?? 🤔 I have no idea what that is...xD
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that, Micah 😕 ... what's... that??
I’m bored cuz I’m sick... did any of you see the Rocket Mortgage Classic? 🤒
since nobody else was posting
Henry deleted one of his own posts. 😅
😬Yep, not much privacy of personal info these days...
in regards to identity theft is what I mean. Naturally the gov has our birthdays, and they even have our social security numbers!! 😱😂. But yeah, my DOB is on my drivers license. It just reminded me about the Acellion data breach; all the personal info I put in my uni application (possibly including ssn) is out there somewhere 😅
Uhh...well, not really. 😅 I mean, for one, it's not THAT personal. What's someone gonna do with our birthday anyway? (except send us a birthday card 😉😂) Plus, if it's the gov seeing it that you're concerned about...as I've said before, they probably already have info about us that a lot more personal, so this stuff is peanuts for them 🤣
Hmm, isn’t it bad though to reveal our birthday on the open internet? 🧐
Neat! Yeah, you would know, since two of your siblings are left-handed 😅
left handed people write a little bit different so they can see and it doesn't smear, but it's pretty much the same as how we do it.
I tried righting with my left hand and it did smear.
Yeah 😂 I can barely write with my left hand 😅
😂 Yeah, that would be hard
I think it may be harder to write w/left when you are left hand because you are constantly trying not to smear what you just wrote.
I can barely write my name with my left hand, and all of my letters are very wobbly 😅
I would think so, but they probably don't think so. 😂 My hand was getting tired just writing like one or two sentences with my left hand 😅
Is writing more awkward for left-handed people considering that we write starting from the left to the right?
Yeah, cool! I'm sure it's awkward for left handed ppl to write with their right hand--the same way it's hard for us right-handies to write with our left hand 😅
well I have two brothers that are left handed.
Charis, Sethers, and Micah, plz check The Bible Brigade. 😉 Thanks!
I don't know how left-handed ppl can write 😅 I have tried to write with my left hand, before, and it comes out looking like chicken scrawl! 😂
Micah, that was short and sweet 😂
Right 😅 Probably all of us are
Who on here is right-handed, and who's left-handed? 😅 I'm right-handed
Also, Agent, the way I learned to draw them is by closely observing pictures of cars, and sometimes tracing the basic outline of a car
Agent, how come? 😅 I actually have a whole "fleet" of vehicles that I designed... in drawing form, of course. But with some of them, I scanned them onto our computer and colored them on Paint 3D. 😁 Of course, the way I am, as soon as I finish them, I want to redo them all and make them better 😂
Yes! @Vera, it's ok to use reference photos and not always go of imagination.👍🏻
I wish I could draw vehicles….
Henry, it's probably made at least SOME improvement, don't you think? 😂 @Vera, same 😅 Probably the thing I draw best is vehicles 😆
Mine isn't really that great, either (I'm really terrible at drawing ppl and animals 🙈), but I think what helped me improve a little was just practice. Also, if I look at a picture, I can draw something much better than going off my imagination. 😅
That’s cool, but my drawing really hasn’t changed since elementary
Yeah, like a 50 cent paintbrush...😏 what a fortune! 😱 Just kidding, of course. 😂 I just use regular pencils and for coloring, I use a large "probably-fairly-expensive"😅 set of colored pencils that our cousin once sent us as a gift, so...yeah 😊 It gets the job done 😆
I have lots of expensive things for art too.
I like pencil drawing the most, I don't like acrylic that much, but I do like water color a lot.
BM, what kind of art do you like? Painting or drawing and coloring? I definitely prefer drawing with a pencil, first, and then coloring it with colored pencils 😉 Painting is not my forte 😅
I also like this kind of art!
I don't think it's that bad Henry. 😂
yes I like art. I have been progressing a lot over the last year!
😂 I'm sure it doesn't look THAT bad
My drawing would look the same as they did in kindergarten. 😅
I like to draw, but I don't really have time to do a lot of art. Like Roger, I mainly just do birthday cards... like I need to do for my sister's birthday tomorrow 😅
Ummm... is that a yes?? 😅
Um...hi...again 😅 Do anyone of like to do draw or paint or do any kind of art? I enjoy doing art (not painting, tho), but I mainly just do it when I'm making a birthday card or something for one of us in the fam. 😊 Also, I do best at going off another picture when I'm drawing, so it helps me to do the picture more realistically.
Oh, great...here we go again...🙄😂
I think it did, bc it took some of the pieces in it's mouth 😅
Yeah, he (or she) was just rummaging thru there, probably looking for food, and she was throwing the leaves and stuff down onto our patio 😂 Her wages for cleaning our gutters were whatever food she found.
Speaking of animals, just a few days ago, there was a robin that was cleaning out a leaf clog in our gutter. 😆
Micah, 😂 yeah, I'm putting the owls out of business 😅
Charis, one or two please... no, jk. xD
My favorite animals.... horses, ponies, cats, dogs, and turtles.
No. But Ik why u hate owls Roger, they r competition in hunting mice and squirrels. 🤦♂️ 😯
My favorite animal is a owl.
Yes! Horses are also one of my favorites 😄 @Henry, no kidding! 😂
I kinda like caracals and also cheetahs, too. 😅
Kittens and puppies... I like a lot of animals, too. 😂
I think a couple of my favorite animals are monkeys and horses... I can't really choose a favorite of anything 😂... I like a lot of animals
What's everyone's favorite animal(s)? 😁 I really like cats (wild and domestic, especially tigers) and also elephants. 😊
Well, if Bible Memorizer wants to join, there is a link in Theological Discussions. But this is kinda a sister group of that one, just to get away from the "heat" of the debates 😂
oh, but it didn't count for the group. this is strange.🤔
I added verses to the Joy collection but I don't really know how cuz I'm not admin. I can also do that on other groups.
btw nobody has any verses current on this group so nobody can join. including bm1
ok ok, let's not argue about owls the whole time. 😂
*doesn't have anything to do with owls, btw 😆
Once, about...7 years ago, we were going to or from a restaurant (in the van, of course). I think it was getting dark. We were on a two lane road, another vehicle was going opposite us, and we were just passing, when a deer jumped in between both vehicles! It was like a split-second thing. God really protected us!
*didn't mean to put that "a" in there. xD
Umm, it's probably just me, but the way their eyes don't move, and their heads turn all the way around-- *shivers at the thought*
and why would u think there disgusting? and creepy. me thinks there cool. and they be very intelligent.😬
yeah! we have almost hit them many time on trips.
The other week, while I was driving to the store with my mom, a deer crossed the road in front of me, trotted by the side of the road for a bit, and then crossed back over right in front of me. 🤦♀️ They're so dumb, but so cute. 😂
there are deer but u usually only see them when u go camping.
Agent, cool! That's too bad you don't see deer there. We see quite a few here, but we've lived in much more rural areas where there was a lot more wildlife. Like at one house we lived at, I saw a coyote or wolf that was standing at the wood line on the side of the road. That was the only time I saw one of those in the wild 😄
Cause they're...😬 creepy and... disgusting 😶
😬 did you just say owls? I HATE owls. However, we believe we might have one living nearby our house 😲
Aw 😞 that's too bad. We should ship some of ours over to you xD
But last night there were 2 big owls on our trampoline! it was really cool to see
Aww, that’s cool! we don’t get deer where we live :(
Hey, guys! 😃 Guess what? Just a few minutes ago, two little fawns wandered into our backyard and were standing right near our patio. They were sooo cute! 😊 It's not very often that that happens.
Oh! I think I remember where I heard Jerry and Tom. I think my dad has talked about it before
They were funny 😂 the movie is pretty good tho. u should watch it.
I didn’t watch the movie, but I used to watch the episodes from the 50’s and 60’s when I was a kid
Yeah, I realized my mistake after posting, thinking of Tom cat
He corrected himself and said Jerry. But yeah, that really sounds familiar
Don’t you mean jerry tho Henry? He’s the mouse.
yah, the movie was actually pretty goood.
... the Tom and Jerry thing. Was that a show?
That sounds familiar, Henry, but I can't quite remember what it is
And they’re quite smart too, reminding me of Tom from Tom and Jerry
Little bunny foo foo hopping through the forest, picking up the field mice and bopping them on the head. 🐰
Yeah, one of the mice we caught was really tiny and cute...but we had to kill it...😥
Interesting! 😊 Were they field mice?...oh wait, no, you said they were smaller...What kind do you think they were?
yes! once me and my brothers and sisters were out in the wild and there was a boat we found, and we moved the boat and there were a bunch of little mice! and they were very cute. but they weren't the kind you would find at your house. these were smaller and a little bit different color.
Even when the mice had to die... you never realize how cute a mouse is, until you see it up close in the cage, just looking at you
They were, but it was sad... for me at least 😢
But u said three of em were killed tho...
😢 That would be so sad. 😆 ... Roger, I agree 😏
They're my cute, cuddly customers...😏
You should kill em and hang em up in front of your house.
In addition, I/we have caught about 5-6 mice and most of them were pretty honking. 😂
Ummm, Agent almost got it right on. I've caught 18. But only three of them were killed... the rest were relocated. 😅 In fact, just today I caught my 18th one. I should really go into business 😝
oh, I didn’t realize that you had asked a question
Ok, so since you all got an F in guessing how many chipmunks I've trapped, I'll go ahead and tell you 😂... unless you want to try again...
🙄 I'd better not even think about getting started myself 😂
I don't mean to spam, but I just couldn't help myself...I think I'm done now 😂
Don't worry, all you animal rights folks; it's a live trap
...expert chipmunk trapper... 😏
🤨 ahem...anyway...y'all wouldn't believe how many chipmunks I've trapped at just this one house 😏 Me the "expert chipmunk catcher" 😂
I'm on a lot, too, but I don't say much if nobody else has said something
well I'm on a lot but I don't aways say something if nobody else hasn't.
*not really just sitting around 😂
🤦♀️ Micah! Where have you been? 😂 Half the day's gone by, and we're just sitting around waiting for everyone to finally come on 😅
Micah was probably so tired after that last face that he konked out right where he was, and he's been sleeping ever since 😂
*whispering* it's so quiet....*pin drop*
They're all so weird... but yeah, I guess that would be one of the weirdest
the one that bothers me the most if the flower-eyes one. How about you guys?
*tsk, tsk* It's a rare condition... they call it "spam-intis"... 🙄😔
😂 another weird "Micah face"
Well that's a relief 😰... but alas...still puzzling 🤔
Well, I heard from someone that she’s ok….
Oh....😕 That's REALLY, REALLY concerning... I'm clueless as to what could have happened
Well, I emailed her and she hasn’t responded…
Anyone have any sort of update about Nadia? 😕 Vera and I have been sort of spying on her in the rankings, and rn almost all of her verses have gone due, but she hasn't reviewed any of them since she left all the groups. 🤔🤷🏻♂️
The funny thing was, it decided to take off, right when our dad was trying to take pictures of it. He got one
😂 Yeah, it was really fun taking care of it
Oh, sorry, hadn't seen that second post. Yes, it was an open container. It probably had been injured in it's wing or something and it crashed into the gravel.
Yeah 😂 altho for some strange reason, they like to make their "territory" right outside our door, every single year practically. And they fly back and forth in front of it, chasing off other bumble bees and insects, and you! 🤣But, yeah, gotta special spot in my heart for Buzby 😪😂
Was it an open container? I wonder how it got it’s head stuck between two rocks
😂 Yeah good story😄 Bumble bees are the friendliest type of bees and rarely sting. Even though I used to be scared of bees, I always thought bumble bees were cute and fluffy
*whispers to Roger* I don't think anyone's gonna believe us, but it's true 😏
Sorry, I didn't post it soon enough...I was trying to write it up...😒
"The Bee Story: A touching example of true care for a creature in need 😪"... No, not that 😅 Ok, so one day, several years ago, my dad, Vera, Michael, and I had just come back from the dump. We were cleaning up when our dad saw a bumble bee with its head stuck between two rocks. We brought a container and put the bumble bee into it, along with a twig. For the next week, we cared for it; we refreshed it's container regularly with white clover and water. A week later, we were outside with Buzby in the sun. (we had named him that, altho it was actually most likely a female). As we were about to take a picture of her, she flew up, around, and into the trees! Three things remain, she never stung us, she was a good pet, and with prayer and care, God healed her. And she lived happily ever after (most likely). The end. 😪 *sniff, sniff* That's such a--great story, isn't it? *sniffs again* And it's a true story, too. 😄
I’m slightly confuzzled by the story….?
"The Bee Story"--Chapter 1: (😂) Once upon a time there lived a bee, and his name was Buzz-bee. One day, Buzz-bee was--ok scratch that. 😆 Let's start over.
😂I really don't mind bees too much, either... Roger said he wants to tell you about the "Bee Story".
I actually don’t mind bees. When I was ten years old I was walking in front of our shed when a bee landed on my hand. I looked at it and it actually looked at me (weird right?) I started speaking to it and it stayed on my hand. Eventually it flew away but I thought it was funny/strange. Ever sense then I have not minded bees, but I HATE hornets/wasps 😬
Yeah...I still don't like bees...😬
I have been stung but I don't know what it was by
Yep, and it made me frightened of bees and wasps for a long time until a few years ago
😬😨 owww! That must have really hurt! Did you swell up?
Yeah, when I was grade school during a gardening activity. I was told by the school gardener to rake a pile of leaves that I was hesitant to do. After she said something to me in response, I went and raked the pile of leaves, and behold, a whole hive of bees came out and stung me. 😖😂
Nope, I've never been stung by a bee
Another question: have any of you ever been stung by a bee? I've been stung twice. Once by a wasp and the other time it was a yellow jacket. Ouch 😬
FFFFFUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
anyone who hasn't please join my group memorize Gods word! thank you
LOL, that's really funny 😂😆
Once when I was little I had a dream that me and my mom went shopping and my mom wouldn’t buy me a certain kind of cereal so I started crying and then my mom woke me up because I was actually crying 😂
One time, as I was going off to sleep, I thought of something funny and I accidentally laughed out loud, waking myself up. 😆
that would kinda freak me out 😂
yeah my younger brother always laughs in his sleep. 😂
Attn: Micah and Sethers, plz check CT. Thanks 😉
Micah and Agent, that's really funny! 🤣🤣 Interesting you should mention sleep talking, Charis, bc my bro heard me talking in my sleep just this morning. 😅😆
Oh yeah, Agent! I've done that more times than I can count! I usually wake up while I'm talking tho. 😂 Sometimes, when I'm having a dream where there's someone evil in it, I'll plead the blood of Jesus and shout 'holy fire' out loud! and I end up waking up while I'm doing that. I think once, either one of my sisters or I woke up praying in tongues. But one time I think I woke up while telling Roger something in my dream. 😂
what about sleep talking? Sometime last year my older sister said I was reciting a Bible passage in my sleep but she wasn’t sure which one 😆
My dad did. He came downstairs (he was a kid) and said he needed to go to the bathroom to my grandparents. Then they watched him open the front door and go outside. About 20 seconds later he came in and went to bed 😂
Oh, my! 😂😂 That would be really amusing to see that video of you. 🤣
like well I don't know. once I was sleep walking during a dream and I was in the restroom and there was like a giant metal beam coming at me in the dream and I was pointing and crying and everything.(the only reason I know this is cause I was recorded) 😂
Oh? 🧐😂 That's quite something. Like how many times would you guess?
wow! Really? Was it fun? 😂
yes I used to do it alllll the time.
I heard that, and I'm kicking myself for not going and seeing who it was. 😂 It would have been so neat...
Have any of you ever walked in your sleep? 😅 I know, weird question, but recently either my brother or I walked in our sleep down the stairs and back up and into the boys' room. 😆 Two of my sisters heard someone doing that around 4 in the morning, but neither my brother nor I remember it.
@Micah same I don’t like grammar and spelling and that kind of stuff
ummm... idk 🤐 it's a private group
after they see it, can you tell me what Ct is? 😂
Micah and Sethers, plz check CT. 😉 I said something over there that I only want you two to see...😎
Roger, I thought you were taking two tests today... for some reason 🤔... whatever
Wow! 😅 Those ones that you hate are actually the easiest for me. xP Even tho I don't like the math tests, last time I still got above average scores for math. 😌
Those r always the easiest for me. I hate writing/English/grammar/spelling.
I always dread the math tests. 😬
(I am actually just doing one test a day 😉), but it went well, thanks! 😊 Today I did "written expression". Yesterday, when I had started the testing, I did a reading test, so those are the two I've done so far.
I'm back now. 😁 Sethers, good one! 🤣 @BM, interesting! I've been homeschooled all my life as well.
Btw, if anyone is wondering where Roger is, he's taking standardized tests right now, so he won't be on till a little later.
but I know it would be almost impossible for the teachers to grade the homework if they had a lot cuz there are so many people, and most of the people wouldn't even do the homework. and also for the homework they have most everyone cheats. it's sad.😔
no I'm going again this year, there is a lot more work than homeschooling but I like to be around other people my age, but at least they have schoolwork I know many people that go to public schools and they have only a few assignments a day.
Or did you like it, because you said last year
Bible Memorizer, that's interesting! How are you liking it?
ok I was homeschooled all my life till last year I went to Christian private school, and where is everyone today?
Back to the answer to my joke, it is because it just didn’t workout😂
or should I say were you. 😂
Vera are u homeschooled, or do you go to a public or private school?
Speaking of gyms.... why did the gym have to close down?
Nice BM. Being a pastor sounds good to me, and good job working out. 😂👍
and I'm into working out and sports. oh and I forgot I may want to go into ministery.
art and geology been things I've been working at and studying.
umm... well, I don't know, maybe art, or geology, and possibly business to start up my own gym.
Neat! What do you plan to study?
😂 Are you planning to go to college?
ok, sounds fun... well I guess. 😂
I'm not planning to go to college... besides, I may have gotten a job before I graduated (and there were a few times that I was just about to), but my mom still needed my help a lot here at home, and my dad thought it best that I finish my school first, so that I wouldn't be overwhelmed.
Hopefully I'll be able to get a summer job next year
yeah I would think to get a job before you graduate for college and everything.
Following after big brother Noah 😏
Um... after you graduate? Does that mean you r trying to get student loans? I’m starting next summer, when I am 15 1/2. I will (god willing) be working at Wendy’s.
Some of the others have probably not been on yet, today
well this may be a short conversation. 😂
I don't have a job either.
I don't, but I'm hoping to get one this summer after I graduate, Lord willing.
I don't exactly have a job but I mow lawns.
so let's talk about jobs do any of you have jobs? as in getting payed jobs.
Oh? Then if dishwashers is not a boring topic then what is? 😂
So Roger, who do u like jk jk jk jk jk... it’s not a boring topic tho. 🤦♂️ 😂
oh! no wonder. We only run ours at night
Yes we run our dish washer about three times a day.
As Charis said, we'd have dirty dishes for days if we didn't wash things by hand! 😂 And we are a family of seven (I know you weren't asking me that, Bible Memorizer)
Micah, your mother must use a very small number of pots and pans to cook things, or else you must run a dishwasher cycle several times a day.
so there are 14 people in you family?
We manage just fine like that 😂 and if we did wash everything with our dishwasher we would have dirty dishes for a long time….
HA! We have 12 kids in our family and we’ve never put everything in our dishwasher.
hey our fam is a fam of eight to
..........we do and we r a family of 8.
lol yeah you can't wash everything in the dishwasher.😂
And, no, we don't handwash our clothing 😜
😂😂 Micah, of COURSE we have a dishwasher! 🤣 But we can't put every pot and pan in the dishwasher
Do you hand wash your clothes to? 😂 😬
You guys don’t use a dish washer? 😂
Actually we do, but sometimes the dishes pile sky-high, and whoever's on drying needs to dry them and put them away. (and most of the time they don't dry completely in the rack)😅
You don’t use a dish drying rack?
Neat! Actually, Bible Memorizer, usually in our family, one person washes the dishes, while another dries... but sometimes my oldest sister doesn't dry the dishes I washed, cause she doesn't have time, and I end up drying them the next morning when she's gone to work 😕😂😂
Vera I went down and looked at yours,isn't washing and drying dishes part of doing the dishes? 😷
ok I might have missed a few but that's most of them.
umm...I wash dishes, sweep, set table, clean bathroom, mow, vacuum, pick up dog poo, walk dog, feed and give water to dog,
Hi, BM! 😁 What chores do you do?
Micah, you still on that treadmill of busyness? 😂 (figuratively speaking)
I sweep, wash dishes, and empty out our pool baskets...
Yeah, we know about that. We use a big glass jug and carafes for our purified water, but you still can't get around the bottled stuff from the store. 😬
Oh neat! When we lived at missionary housing, we had well water. I have heard of the dangers of plastic...🤔I can't remember why we still use it 😂 Maybe it's because that's the only container store-bought water is put in.
We have a well 😊 Also the plastic from bottled water isn’t good for you, you should look it up. It be really bad. 😬
Micah, lol! Yeah, we got a water purifier last year when the water was running out in the stores. I think we save money that way, tho we still get some bottled water... but we go through a lot of water. 😂
Henry, that's very interesting 😂
Water purifier? Why do you have to do that manually? I clean the bathrooms, sweep/mop the kitchen, clean our counters, and do random things my mom throws at me.
@Henry, yes, the water purifier brings the Ph and TDS to zero. Also, wow! Several different types of vacuums? 😅 I guess that's just what dogs do.
Does your water purifier take out all the chemicals? My main one is vacuuming; Pluto sheds ALOT and brings in all kinds of dirt, so we have several different types of vacuums to get the job done. 😁
I have a lot of chores, but it depends what week it is. This is just a list of the possible chores I could have. Setting and clearing the table, washing the dishes, loading and unloading the dishwasher and drying the dishes, folding the laundry, washing the bathrooms, mopping the floors, ironing, and sweeping and vacuuming.😁
What chores do you all do at home? I do various things, but my main chores are taking out the trash and purifying tap water in our water purifier. 😅 And that job comes with cleaning the water purifier parts and the water jug
I agree with Roger. If you want to read those books, and you feel fine with doing that then go for it, but I'm not going to read fantasy and things that are based on myths and stuff, as I understand Narnia and LOTR are. I believe that there is mixture, and I don't want to put that in my mind.
Well, bottom line, I have never read these books before (and I don't care to, btw), so I can't speak knowledgeably about it. But what I do know is that they are not pure, and if I read them, I could probably find plenty of things about them that are not ok, so...
First of all, the creatures are like aliens. (broadest way possible) They do not have powers or anything. And those that do choose to use them for good or evil, like the gifts we are given with. The ring in the story represents basically our sin. It can consume us, or we can choose to rid ourselves of it, which they try to do. This is his point.
let's try to keep this on the other wall 😉
Ok but the guy wrote the book to get a point a cross.
Noah, I get my sources from the Bible. We're supposed to test everything. If something has witches and demonic creatures in it, along with magic and stuff like that, then I don't care who wrote it, it's not what we're supposed to be reading or watching.
Vera were do you get your sources? Because the guy who wrote the book was a Christian. He didn’t write a satanic book
Anyone want to join my new group called animal lovers?
yaaaayy! I knew we agreed 😂
I haven’t read them yet! I started the Hobbit and once I’ve finished I’m going to read LOTR
I've never read it, but I from what I know about it, it probably has quite a number of satanically related things in it.
so what do u guys think of Lord of the Rings?
Yeah, same. I'm not one to go and read a boring book just for the sake of reading.
Micah, I've never heard of it. I read non-fiction. 😁 You probably think that sounds boring, but I actually read some REALLY interesting books!
Agent, same about good books! 😂
I love to read!!! I once read 150 books in one year
@Micah I’ve heard of it... now I want to read them xD
I love reading but only if I can find a good book 😂 if it’s not interesting I’m not going to get far and I won’t really remember it
Um, no....that doesn't sound very wholesome to me...especially if it's connected with Disney.
Have you guys heard of the mysterious Benedict society? I’m going to read the book then watch the show once it comes out on Disney .
Reading is my FAVORITE hobby! However, I'm not doing much of it rn, cause I'm stuck on a boring book. 😒
Do any of you like to read? I do, but I usually go thru "phases" of reading and not reading. So, I'll have a period of time where I'm getting my nose into some interesting books, and then other times, like now, where I'm not motivated to read. 😂
I really need to catch up
I have over 1000 to review🤦♂️😏
😬Yikes, Charis! I have 0 due...😂 I used to review all of my verses every single day, whether they were due or not, and I had quite a few. But then as I memorized more verses, it got to be where that was too much, so I don't do that anymore.😅
Eeks! I wouldn't want to be either of you 😬
Enh, I have 702 due..... 😂
Um, *gulps* 😬 I have 46 verses due. 😬😬
Yeah! There are so many good verses in the Bible that I'd like to memorize at some point, but I've barely even scratched the surface 😅
🤦😶I meant to put this one "😊"
😱 I just realized I put the wrong emoji!!!!!
Like Roger, there are so many good verses I've memorized, but two that I like are James 1:12 and Isaiah 43:2. 😑
Hmm...I see...😂 I try to keep my verses from getting way out of hand. I currently have 485 memorized.
But I still know them, just don’t wanna review them rn 😂
Yah I had memorized 736 then dropped to 0 😔
Seriously? 🤨 For me it's...um, that's kinda hard to decide...😅...I mean, there are a lot of verses that I have memorized that I really like...so....🤷♂️...it's hard to even give a few.
What is everyone's favorite Bible verse of the ones you've memorized?
@Nadia, Charis, and Noah Fine, you're all invited to join The Bible Brigade. 😀 On that group, we will soon be having a new Bible challenge, so we're trying to gather new members. 😉 Hope to see you there! 😁
I'm glad you liked it! Ooh, that's good! 😁
Yeah it’s a good song Vera, and it gave me an idea for a melody I was making from playing around with the fretboard. 😄
I REALLY like their music! I had at least one or two of the songs stuck in my head for a looong time...😅
I'm assuming none of you have heard of this, but one of the music artists I really like is Hallal Music, which is an acapella music group. Their songs are really good, especially their newest album, Resurrection.
Yes! I really like that song! Henry, you should look it up; I'm sure you'd enjoy it. 😀
Lol I am never included in "everyone" xD
I’ve heard it 😂 looks like pretty much everyone has...
I love that song, I necessarily don’t like mercy me but I love that song
I have most likely heard every song by MercyMe Vera.
I have heard the song, but not Mercy Me...xD
While on the topic of music, who here has heard the song "I Can Only Imagine" by Mercy Me? (I wouldn't recommend all of their music, but this one is a great song!)
eeeeeeeeee Yes xDD @Roger
@Nadia, lemme take a wild guess...you listen to the Bontrager's music, right? 🤔😂
U can (kinda) see in the pic 😂
Oh, ok. 😏 Micah needs a haircut...I see...🤔😅
@Vera, maybe when I get a haircut.
Ugh...🤦♂️😅...blinding is right, Charis...😂
u-huh 🤔 filters. Maybe no filters?? 😂
Micah's new picture is grating to the eyes...ugh... 🙈
Micah, 😲 What is the matter?! 😵
Micah... what happened to you!!??
Awesome Nadia! One sec Noah...
That's interesting! 😁...altho I should've figured...😅
Nadia, interesting! It sounds like you have things a bit more planned out than I do. 😂
lol Micah 😆 @Roger: I want to go into the music ministry 🙃 and If the Lord wills, go to Jimmy Swaggart Bible College
We need to wait for "commander Micah" to give the verdict, Noah. 🙄😏
Me neither, Noah. 😬 That's not my cup o' tea. 😂
Noah, 😬 I don't think I want to be a politician.😅
Yeah, he's probably trying to look sketchy or sum. 😂
@Micah that’s a tad bit creepy looking.... 😂
Micah, why that filter? 😬😂😂
Can I be admin so I can add my verses pls
I didn’t mean a lawyer pacifically but I could be a mayor or I could run for senator or something like that
M-m-mm-Micah! 😄 Hehe......is that you? 😮
Noah, that's neat! 😉 But yeah, being a lawyer=😬
I haven’t decided what I want to do yet, but i either want to do architecture, something in law or a zoologist.
I want to be a Counselor/Therapist
Another random question: what do you all want to be when you grow up? I'm not totally sure, but I do know that I want to be a dad. 😃 Also, being a missionary interests me, or something ministry related.
I think I've tried that before, but I should try it more often. Ok, thanks for the resource. I might have to check it out. 😀
Have you tried slowing down the tempo, like really slow. I do that until I get the strum pattern. 😃 I think JustinGuitar has videos on it. He has the most free guitar learning resources.
Wow that is a lot! Vera, do you keep your strumming hand moving at all times following the rhythm?
That's alright. 😃 Wow! Yeah that is a lot!
Wow, Noah! 😅 That's a lot!
Sorry I haven’t been on in a while 😅. I do play Instruments. I play the drums, violin, flute, guitar, and piano.
Henry, that's interesting! Yeah, I can mainly do simplified C, D, A, and Em and G. I can play a lot of worship songs, but there are many more that I can't play. Another thing is the strumming pattern. I really only know like three or so (even tho I've been playing guitar since I think 2017 or 18), and every time I try a new one, I can't seem to grasp it. 😄
Nadia and Henry, that's neat! 😁 I play piano, but I'm still amateur. 😅 I started about maybe 3 years ago, but right now I mainly am just going with what I have learned so far. I guess it's just that I've pretty slack in practicing. 😬
I play piano and violin! I"ve played piano for aboutttt oh...around 9 years and violin for abouttt 8 months xD
I’ve been playing for almost 2 years now, but I’ve been on a hiatus mostly for the past year until today. 😁 I’m going back to sheet music and music theory and am learning a gospel song fingerstyle. What about open chords? The songs I listen to do need fancy chords to play along. 🙂
Oh, neat! I play guitar, also. But I am very amateur at it. My fingers are too short to play many of the chords, so it discourages me from even trying to do those. 😅
Do you play any instruments?
Do any of you play any instruments? If so, which one(s)?
Okay... now for a new topic.. finally. 😂
What do y'all think of the new group pic? 😏
Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, Micah! 😁😁😁 A million times, thanks! 😂 Don't worry! You won't be disappointed! 😅
Oh, man! 😰😒 Yeah, plz just make Vera admin so that I can make the changes thru her account. Plz? 😖
You could make me admin, and he could work through my account.
oh! I know why that's happening! Bc Roger had left this group at the beginning...😏
😂 it won’t let me! It will let me admin Vera but not u! 😂
I was driving go-carts then we went to out to eat. 😒 ur admin.
Coincidentally, I just read that chapter in my Bible reading this morning... and I didn't plan that, btw...😅😏
Ya know, Micah, you outta go and read 1 Samuel 29 right now. But when you're reading it, wherever it says 'Achish' replace that in your head with 'Micah'. Wherever it says 'David' replace that with 'Roger'. And wherever it says 'the Philistine rulers' replace that with 'Sethers'. And that's gonna give you a pretty good idea of how I feel right now...I feel like David in that story. 😂😂😝
Well, ig you could de-admin me afterward 🙄, but it wouldn't hurt just to leave me as admin even afterward...ya know? 😉 However, if you must...😕...just make sure that I'm good and done before you kick me out of admin position. 😂
Fine. I I’ll make you admin, you will change the things then I will de admin you. 👌?
Pst...hey, Micah. I still have my request pending to be admin, plz! 😊🙏 I certainly would not do anything to harm or delete the group. This is actually one of my favorite groups! 😄 On the contrary, I have plans to improve and "renovate" the group, so to speak. 😂 You know: better description, better name, better picture *ahem* 🙄 That kind of thing. Also, I would make sure to check with you before making any changes. 😉 So, that's why I want to be admin, and I hope you will kindly consider my request. 😂 Signed--Christopher Roger Lacroix
Thanks! (wrong version tho....xPPPP it doesn't matter)
I want someone to add the JUNIOR BIBLE BEE VERSES...please? That's why I wanted to be Admin...xD
Whats the reason of being admin of this group? it’s just a branch off group. All we basically do is talk.
Je suis d'accord avec Vera xDD
Oui! Bien sûr il ne le supprimerait pas! Il est très responsable.
And I don't mean to sound sketchy or anything...
Btw, Micah, are you gonna make me and Nadia admin, or what? 😂 And don't worry, I wouldn't delete the group...😉
Wow, Micah! Yeah, you would probably have been badly injured if you had jumped! 😮 Good thing you didn't! And, btw, those bike accidents were back when I was not as careful, so...I can still ride, thank you. 😊😂
I used to, for some reason, not pay attention to where I was going while walking. I would often be looking behind me. Then I would walk into something and embarrass myself. Once I did that while walking down a sidewalk. I turned my head straight and wham! I whacked right into a concrete post.🤦 I had a nice big welt for the rest of the day. (Don't worry, that was when I was young and immature.) 😂
Wow! Yeah, praise God you didn't! That would've been serious!
😂 we should, Micah, shouldn't we?
So we had just arrived at Kentucky for BB and I was super tired. My family went to get pizza 😂 while I went and payed down in the lobby couch. btw it’s a huge hotel. I woke up suddenly after half an hour and didn’t know where I was, I ran around looking for my family. I was not fully awake. I ran out of the back of the hotel and saw a door, I tried it, but it didn’t work (I was pulling on it when it was a push door, I didn’t know) I saw a ledge that I thought wasn’t very high and looked down. It didn’t look to far to the bottom so I was going to jump, instead (for some reason) I ran outside and out the front. I saw my family returning from Izzy and jumped over the railing on the side walk to get to them. Later we retraced my steps and saw that the ledge I was about to jump off of was a good 30 feet above the ground. Praise God I did not jump. 😊
Yo Vera and Roger, stay off your bikes!
I almost or could have gotten into an accident a few months ago, also on a bike. I didn’t ride in awhile, so I found it very thrilling to go down a steep hill on the lowest gear and using the brakes only before reached the intersection at the bottom. It’s pretty stupid because if a car turned into the street, I would have crashed at a high speed. I stopped doing that once I almost crashed from locking the wheels with the brakes. 😬 Thankfully no car came, and I was able to land on my feet after going over the handles. I also learned my lesson. 😅
Also, one time, in Hungary, I came close to getting hit by a car 😬...but I don't think it was my fault...I think it was the driver's...🤷♂️
Yeah, I've had several, also. One time when I had just turned twelve, I was riding my bike out in our driveway, and as I was going around a turn, I had my pedal down on the side I was leaning. It ended up scraping the ground and then I wiped out. In addition to some scrapes on my arm, I chipped a good size piece of my front tooth right off. 😬😬 But, thankfully, I was able to get a filling put there to replace the missing part, so it looks totally normal now, like nothing ever happened. 😌 Thing is, a very similar thing ended up happening again after that, and that time it was my knee that I injured. Ouch! 😞 But, it's better now, and I've learned my lesson. 😅
I once had a pretty big accident...on my bike. This was in Hungary when I was 9 or something. Roger, one of my sisters, and I were riding our bikes at a favorite spot of ours--a side road in front of some houses. Ofc in Hungary basically EVERYONE had a fence around their whole property. Roger and I decided to race each other. 🙄 (We had taken off our sweaters and put them into the basket on the front of my bike.) As we were flying down the road, my sister's sweater started to fall out of my basket. I reached for it and called out to Roger to wait. (Which he didn't 'cause he thought I was trying to get ahead of him.🙄) As I did so, I lost control of my bike and wiped out. All of a sudden, I was careening into a metal gate. 😬 I got deep cuts on my chin. To make a long story short, I ended up having to go to the hospital and get stitches. And ofc, Roger and I are not going to do that again...pretty dumb idea. 😅
Wanna share a little about them, Nadia and Micah?
Ok, next topic. Who on here has had some big accident(s) before? (Not just car accidents, btw, altho you could tell about those, too.)
Wow, Micah! You need to go on a "group diet" 🤣😝
Whew! 😅 That's quite a good many groups, Noah!
Nadia, that's good ... that you tried to cut back all the ones you don't need. 😁
😂 Wow! I wouldn't want to be you, Charis. xp
Hehe...same Charis......I tried to cut down on all the ones that I don't need and then I added like....8 BB groups..
I’m in 10.... Probably shouldn’t be since like 6 of them are Bible Bee groups and nothing happens on them?
How many groups is everyone apart of right now? 😜 I'm currently apart of nine groups. 😏
Roger, I cannot tell anyone anything except my commanding officer
No one else can join except him
Can’t find it Sethers, @Nadia, one sec...
PLEASE MICAH?? :D Or can you just add the Junior SS BB verses? 😂
Yeah, that's really cool, Henry! 😁
Wow, Henry! I love it when God does stuff like that. 😃
@Vera I’ve actually been reading that passage for the past week or so
Micah, is that a yes for me and Nadia? 🤔😉 Sethers, what? Are you an admin or something on here? 😂
Micah, join “commander talk” it’s a group for us to discuss what’s going on and stuff like that
I’ll have to talk to my commanding officer(Micah)
Oo! Oo! Me too? Me too? 😃😃 Please? 🙏
🤨 that was out of no where
Could I please be admin? :D
@Henry, that is so amazing! 😄 That definitely shows that that song has the anointing of God on it! Wow! @Nadia, your family sounds a lot like ours. Lol 🤣😅 That's neat!
But a VERY important thing that I'm SURE Micah missed was that there was a music professor that said, "There are voices on there that are higher than the human vocal range can go. And they are sustained for a longer time thana human voice can sustain one note (not taking a breath.) There's no other explanation for it, except it's SUPERNATURAL! (And Noah, maybe later I can tell you about the angels singing in Chinese.)
And @Noah, I should have told you sooner what the video was about. Sorry! Basically, it's an audio of angels singing, "Hallelujah". Seven ppl in Kansas City got together in a church for choir practice. They wanted to check their recording equipment and harmony. So they sang the chorus 'Hallelujah' once, then had a short pause and sang it again. They did this acapella, with no instruments. When they played it back, they thought something had gone wrong with their system until they realized that thousands of voices were singing with them. And there was a harp, bass guitar, trumpet, all sorts of things. And then during the thing that they paused, there was a solo. Where none of them had sung.
Whenever I listen to anointed music I can sense the presence of the Lord and it truly is wonderful.
Yes! Often I'll wake up to my mom listening to anointed music and sobbing...because that's her particular reaction to the spirit of the Lord llol also when we're in the car...and once we were in a Baptist church and they almost kicked us out @_@
(I wrote that at bedtime, so I had to rush off 😬) But I really think that is so wonderful about the peace you felt!! It reminds me of the verse, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." (Phil 4:6-7)
I'm sorry to hear about the anxiety. But praise God about that testimony! Yes, that's a reminder for all of us.
And there’s more to that feeling that I didn’t get into
I got distracted by worldly things again, so I’m going to try to keep my mind on the things of the Spirit
Now that I think about it, I think so, Vera. I have an anxiety disorder keeps me on edge all the basically all the time except when I am close to the Lord. All the anxiety went away when I was listening to the song, and the strong sense of peace lasted for a while.
Yeah, you might want to go get some sleep there, buddy. 😉
Micah, I think you got confuzzeled and meant to say that on Theological Discussions. 😅
Henry, do you think that that 'very strong feeling' was the presence of the Lord?
Idk about miracle Roger, but that was 👌
I already forgot the melody of the Chinese song 😂 It wasn’t just the melody, but it was also with the instruments. Besides the 🤔, I did get a very strong feeling.
Yes, I know, Micah. But like I said, I can feel the anointing and presence of God on that song. I probably wouldn't be feeling that if it were some phony, made-up thing.
Jusg remember that sometimes songs or melodies can me stuck in our head and they are not always from heaven. Also remember everything good comes from God, but good things are not always God.
Yeah, that's interesting, Henry and Nadia. 😊 Personally, when I listen to, or think about that Hallelujah song the angels sang that was in English, I can feel the presence of God. 😄 That's a sign for me that it really was angels, so....
Wow!! Yeah, sometimes when I'm listening to anointed music, I feel the presence of the Lord. It's so wonderful!! 😃
Haha! Whenever I listen to anointed music it always plays VERY REAL in my head and I'm always asking people "can't you hear that music???" and they're like "um....no..."
Or it’s just musical ear syndrome. Music always plays in my head
I wasn’t thinking about the song though, until I noticed what sounded like the string instrument in the song
He sure is! 😁 I’m not sure if it was or if it’s just my mind looking for familiar sounds from the vacuum noise. 🤷♂️
Henry, about your dog, that is so, so cute!! 😂 And about the song, I find that interesting. Do you think you were actually hearing the angels singing, real time?
Hmm, that's interesting, Henry. 😃 Why do you think that is?
For some reason I keep hearing that Chinese song when I turn on the vacuum, but it goes away when I turn it off. It was much clearer than I remember since didn't listen to the whole thing until after.
Thanks 😊 He sure loves hikes. He can even tell when we are going hiking by the clothes I wear. Then he barks and whines until he’s in the car, where is then a happy boy 😄
You don't have to believe that it's angels, if you don't want to. I, on the other hand, believe it was angels. 😊 It's not just that they were not inhaling, but also just everything about it definitely seems supernatural.
I’ve seen some videos of people holding their breath for a crazy long time
I’m not sure if that was angels
Me too. 😊 You're dog looks really happy. 😄
Yeah 😊 Btw, I like your new picture! 😁
My mom said that she working with a missions agency at that time. She was connected with ppl who had been to China that year. And they had a cassette recording of that angel song. She doesn't know if it was the original or a copy, but they had gotten it from China.
Yeah, I doubt that, too. 😂
Yeah, I was doubting people in 1995 rural China had all of that
Yes, the peasants that were gathered and singing in the Spirit did not have instruments
Are the instruments in the Chinese one also played by angels?
Even the first one? Tell me, how can humans sing like that? And, so what if they sound like people?
I mean, they just sounded like people to me.
Yeah, I thought the one in English was really amazing! 😃
Ok i just watched the other one xD
That's really interesting!
And what time stamp is that? Cause I listened for it near the end but didn't hear them mess up their beat.
The story at the beginning of the video... that says how that all came about...
I’m not going to blindly believe it... how would I know? I have no idea! It sounded just like a choir. And they lost their beat a little at the end, I doubt angels do that.
Btw, this is to everyone... again. 😅
As with the other one, please see the story that goes along with it, and DON'T stop when the song goes silent for a couple seconds in the middle. There's still more.
This is the link: https://tinyurl.com/yvmwh5fb And Micah, they even have drums! 😁 So you might want to see this.
Yes, it is! 😃 There is another one from a different time and a different place of angels singing in Mandarin Chinese.
Very interesting indeed. 😄
Then watch the beginning and end and everything in between. 😉
I’d love to know the context
Yeah, Micah, plz see the whole thing--before the singing and afterward. It's totally amazing and cannot be faked!
Well, what would make you think it's not? 🤔 And you did watch the whole video, right? 😄
Well of course it is, Micah! 😂 You can tell by the key of those notes they were singing! No human could ever hold those extremely high notes for that long without taking a breath! And you can tell by the sound of it and the story behind it! If you don't believe it, where is your faith? Don't you believe in the supernatural?
huh? you think that’s real angels? 😂
Would it be alright if I wait until after the others have seen it, so that I don't spoil it for them? 😊
Sorry Vera I can’t see it but can you tell me what it’s about?
Yes, it's very interesting! 😁
Plz disregard the \n after the link.
Everyone, I thought I'd share this and see what y'all think: https://tinyurl.com/d2fa3jxs
Please watch the whole thing. 😃
K. 😉 I don't play chess these days. 😂 Tho, I used to play it with Vera.
Made a new group called chess talk if you guys want to join
Yeah! But I'm not so sure it'll work out. 😊
@Vera, aww... That would be a neat job!
*talks to self* Wow, where'd everyone go? 🤔😂
@Nadia, that's neat! 😁 What exactly are the Youth Camps?
Charis, I wish I could get a job working with elderly people at a retirement home or something. But the thing is, there are so many restrictions these days that that doesn't even seem feasible. 😕But honestly, if I had my way, I would want to skip the getting a job part and go straight to ministry. 😅 But I'm not sure yet what God has for me to do. It seems that opportunities I might have had before are becoming less and less of a reality. But God can do the impossible. 😃
We finished last week!! We have a bunch of Youth Camps coming up so that will be great!
Good! And why is our last name so yummy? 😂 (jk)
Lacroix 😋 And we end in two weeks 😁
Hopefully! Is there anything you’re hoping on getting?
Oh, neat! I'm graduating on June 17th, and hopefully I'll be able to find a job after that... or before.
I think this upcoming week will be our last week of school since me and my brother are working at a summer camp and (of course!) Bible Bee is starting soon
So, when is everyone going on summer break? 😉 Michael (my brother) and I are going on summer break in late June. 😄 Can't wait!
R anyone of you in the video?
The first episode of Bible Bee 2020 was streamed on their Facebook page today if anyone’s interested 😁 https://www.facebook.com/nationalbiblebee/videos/859928388199736/
Nope, don't worry! You're probably like the third. 😂
Ok good. I didn’t want to be the millionth person to be asking you this 😬😂
Really. 😆 Ummm 🤔 actually not very often. I can't remember when the last time was. 😂
How often do you get people asking if you like La Croix?
I don’t like any sparkling water
Um, yeah. 😂 But we don't drink Lacroix water, in case you're wondering. XD
Ooh, fancy name. Do y’all like sparkling water? 😛
... or, if you wanted to say it the French way, "la-KWA".
Ok, maybe that's not the best way to try and show you...🤷😊
Oh, ok. 😅 Whew! For a minute there, I thought I might have a double! 😆 (not really) But, our last name is Lacroix (la-CROY) And it's French for "the cross" 😊
@Nadia, that is creepy. 😬😬 I'm afraid to ask....what's his last name? (If you know it 😅)
Wow, I guess we're all outdoorsy! 😂
I’m also outdoorsy, but I stay indoors mostly as I live near highway in the city
I love the outdoors but I wouldn’t normally go outside just to be outside....
No....He's on my brother's new travel team...@_@ xDD LOL! Outdoorsy or indoorsy...I'll have to agree with Vera xD
Oh! Yeah! Me neither, but I like hot better than cold. 😅
I’m outdoorsy, the only thing is that I don’t like the heat
.... I'm not sure, I spend most of my time inside...😂 but I like being outside
So, which one is everyone: indoorsy or outdoorsy? 😂 I'm definitely more outdoorsy...thing is...well...I'm not necessarily one of those....oh, never mind...you get my point...hopefully. 😅
Um...lemme guess Nadia. You saw him in my profile picture? 🤔🤨🤣
😐 No, but I did just see a kid that looked exactly like you AND his name was Christopher so that was creepy. @Roger
😏 Yeah, Nadia was probably having some strange nightmare about her name being Sybbyl Rolfe 🤣
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
@Everyone to whom it pertains: Sethers wants to get a move on the next topic over on the other group. 😉
Well it was fun while it lasted...😂
Oh wow! Talk about not getting it right! 😂😂 Thanks for fact checking that and letting me know, Henry! 😅 I'll be sure not to use that name... not that I have been. 😆
I went to the source of the image you linked that goes through all of the names to check if they are actually medieval and saw this: “Angmar – Um, no.” 🤔
Here is the chart if anyone is interested! : )
https://tinyurl.com/santpzwp
🤣🤦♀️ Man! I'm sure glad I didn't live back then! xD
Oh, yeah. And Vera's would be Lady Angmar Golding. 🤣
Yeah, Nadia, it's pretty ridiculous! 🤣🤣
Btw, I'm pretty sure that's what they did back then. but I'm not 100% sure, so...just going off of a chart that I saw about that. 😂
WHAT KIND OF NAME IS THAT
So, according to the chart that I have, Nadia would be Lady Sybbyl Rolfe 🤣 And Agent would be Lady Clemence Rolfe. 😅 Isn't that so hilarious?
Hey, everyone, it's Ulric Rolfe here. 🤣🤣 Literally. That's what what my name would've been if I had lived in Medieval times. 😂 Back in Medieval times, they had set names for different dates; and if you were born on that date, you would get the name that corresponded with your birthday. 😅😅
@Henry, I haven't seen him, but it sounds interesting. (After I just wrote that, I saw that Vera had just written the same thing, basically. 🤣🤣)
Wow! 😯 On your exterior doors or your inside doors?? If it's on your exterior doors, that's really dangerous!
our locks are so easy to pick
No, I haven't. But that sounds interesting 😄
Has anyone watched LockPickingLawyer on YouTube? He can pick just about any lock in a minute or 3
I think the only way that’d happen is if your locks were already pathetic... 😆
Enh...I'd rather pay to have someone do it right, then to have someone do it for free and botch my door locks. 😂😂
He’d probably do it for free though...
Ooo..😬 that doesn't sound too good. I'll be sure to call someone else next time I need a locksmith. 🤣🤣
with a lock pick but he says he isn’t good at it he just sticks it in the lock and messes with it until it unlocks. Kinda scary 😂
With a paper clip or what?
My brother can pick the locks on our doors....
Yeah, right! xD Just make sure that you don't leave it sitting around outside your locked front door...xD
Maybe if I see her at BB this year 😂
Yeah, right, Micah. 😏 You can get that as a gift for Nadia. 🤣
Oh! I know EXACTLY what you can get, Micah! 😃😃 You can get that Mercedes Maybach Exelero that you've been wanting! 🤣🤣
😂 I have a wallet and it’s digital. I don’t know how long you can save an amazon gift card 🤷♂️ what about this? 😂. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B095C7H7SF/ref=sr_1_3_sspa?crid=76OHKDSHSBQB&dchild=1&keywords=lock pick set&qid=1621463948&sprefix=Lock pick%2Caps%2C555&sr=8-3-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUEzS0VUT01WMUxZM1JUJmVuY3J5cHRlZElkPUEwNTMzNTM0M1VFVTlEWVo0WjVUQSZlbmNyeXB0ZWRBZElkPUEwOTUwMjAzTlZWUTZSVU1XWEczJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==
Maybe with that $20, you should get a wallet so that it doesn't fall out of your pocket...after it's burned the hole through it. 🙄😂
But seriously, I would either save it for something I really need ('cause I don't like spending my money on something that I don't really NEED), or I would get a book...or books--used books--'cause I LOVE reading!
I can spend more then $20 😂 that’s not all I have
Oh, wow, Nadia! I feel badly for you!😥 I'd probably either get a locksmith on it 😂 or break it like Charis said.
But I would highly recommend breaking it. Or getting someone else to break it for you.
you can try googling it...
that’s really unfortunate 😂
And I don't feel like trying to break it open
AND I NEED TO SEE SOMEONE'S PHONE NUMBER! And now it's locked up :/
I need one of those....I locked myself out of my diary and threw the key away on accident :/
that might be more than $20 though...
My brother would get some random horse thing or tool that might come in handy some day... WAIT. You could get a lock picking set.
Um...🙄 idk, Micah. Just make sure you've got a fire extinguisher handy. 🤣😂 I'd probably just save it for when you actually really want or NEED something. 😅 I mean, how fast is it burning that hole? xD
Yeah...hmm.....My brothers would get a sports ball...
I’d probably get a book. Possibly. I can’t think of anything else under 20 I would get 😂
Wow.....I wold buy clothes
Makes sense. idk what to get tho. I have a 20 amazon gift card burning a hole in my pocket
@Micah, I personally have never enjoyed mini pool very much. Maybe because I tend to use a lot of force in pool and related games and it doesn’t work that well in mini pool and isn’t nearly as satisfying. Also, it’s harder to be a lot better than people in mini pool because it doesn’t require as much skill.... 😆
😂 😂 the joy of bringing confuzzlement to people...
@Noah, just warning you, Agent is a GIRL, not a boy. 😂 Cuz for a long time, I had been going along thinking she was a boy...bc of the unclear profile. 😏
I think you can give input but I’m not sure
Can I give my input or am I not allowed?
@Noah try copy and pasting the link into your search bar
Well, I don't know if he wants me to say but 😏...*glances around* I suppose I can 😶...(it'saminitabletoppoolset) shhh...🤫 don't tell him I told you. 😊😉 (jk)
@Noah, BB is Bible Bee. 😉
Yeah, I personally wouldn't....but that's bc I don't play that game. 😂😂
Um I wouldn't but it lol but if you want to you can ;P
the social community is: social.biblebee.org
I’m also not on a computer so that might be why
Try a different device, 🤐 I can’t tell
Still can’t for some reason

yo ca pen one of you give me a link to the BB social community? I cannot find it for some reason 🤦♂️ I was on it earlier but 🤷♂️
I don’t have a pet 😢 we would of my parents would let us 😠
That’s a hard one! I’d probably go with dog if I had to choose only because every time I go to bed I wake up and the cats are always Staring at me. It’s so creepy
😁 Do you have any pets, Micah? We don't 😥
I like little dogs better and love cats 😊
One reason why I don't want to just rule out dogs completely, is bc they're a lot more companionable than cats. 😂 Like you said, Agent
Well, hopefully I don't offend anyone here, 😂 but I kinda like cats/kittens better than dogs. 😬 But don't get me wrong, I still like some breeds of dogs, like golden and Labrador retrievers and some others. 😁 If I ever got a pet, I would preferably want to get both a kitten and a puppy. 😉😊
That’s such a hard question! I personally like dogs more than cats (unless they’re little dogs) but also cats are much cleaner. And kittens are absolutely amazing. But if I had to choose to get one over the other, I’d def get a dog because they’re more fun in general.
Who on here prefers dogs over cats or vv? I personally like both, but if I HAD to choose to get one over the other, I think I'd pick a dog--a puppy. 😊
Hopefully I will have a picture in this years yearbook 😏
Oh, well, Nadia. Hopefully you'll have a better picture for this year's yearbook. xD ...even though I still think that picture was fine. 🙄😂
My username name is noza1234quz1 FYI
@nadia ik I can’t friend you in chess.com but can I challenge you?
It doesn't even look like me...I even told my mom "Do NOT put that picture" and ig she forgot ;/
No...Charis.....it's a bad picture...........of me......Yours looks amazing tho xD
Loll, I don’t like it because I had just gotten another hair cut and I don’t think it really looks like me 🤷♀️
🤦♂️ Oh, man! 🤣 Listen, Nadia and Agent, you two looked JUST FINE! 😂😂 Honestly. Nadia, if you hadn't said anything about it, I wouldn't have even known! 😅
🤦♀️ Oh, no! Not you too, Agent! 😂 You look good! XD It's just from your perspective that it doesn't look good. 😄
Mine on the other hand... Enh 😂
You don’t look sick. I think it’s a pretty good picture of you
Nadia, I don't know what your talking about. 😂 It looks perfectly fine to me. 😅 I've had far worse pictures of myself before. xD
@ Roger: IT WAS BAD!!! My mom took it early in the morning and I was sick AND it's just bad.....
I would also want to get a Kia Stinger. 😉 Btw my first name is Joseph. 😁
Yeah. 😂 Micah has his head in the clouds! 🤣🤣
Oh, ok. 😕 That's a bummer.
Yeah, IK... But at least they’re not 8 million dollars 😂
The ‘yearbooks’ are of the qualifiers, Micah didn’t quite make it last year. You’ll have to wait..... about 6 months
@Nadia, yeah it was that picture. 😬😅 But, honestly, what was wrong with it? I thought you looked just fine! 😅 Btw, when will they post the 2021 yearbook, bc I had wanted to see Micah's pic, too, and he's probably only on the 2021 yearbook, right? Cuz I couldn't find him in the 2020 one.
@Agent, a 2020 Corvette? Or a McLaren? Ok...your gonna need some money to buy that...😅😆
@Micah, um...no...I don't want to pay 8 million for a car. 😂 I wouldn't even ever have 8 million, anyway. Do you? 🤣 But, yeah, the Kia Stinger is a much more reasonable choice and I'd most likely buy a used one. 😉 But, I do have have a few backup options. Like the Genesis G70 and Mazda CX-5 (way less expensive 😅)
or a mid engine corvette 👌
Oh, I forgot about that....xD
I personally want either a McLaren gt or a corvette c8 which are probably not gonna happen but.... yeah 😆
@Nadia, I thought you wanted an old mini van....? 😂
And I don't have a dream car....lol xDD
Oh no... You didn't look in the bible bee year book did you....that picture of me is absolutely horrendous......it's awfulll.........
Kia stingers are nice though 👍 and a better dream car then mine 😂
😂 not up to paying 8 million for a car? 😂
Um...sorry to pop your bubble, Micah, but to me that car looks kinda...weird. 😂 But, I guess it depends on personal tastes. The car I had in mind that's a little more....reasonable is a Kia Stinger. 😅
tbh 😂 I want a ‘Mercedes-Maybach Exelero’. There is nothing wrong with wanting cars, houses, or dogs 😂 but it’s what you do with that. Just like it’s not wrong to be tempted, but it’s what you do with that.
Also, like Roger said, he and I now know what Agent and Nadia look like. 😏
Yeah, I don't really have a dream car either. 😅 I'm dreaming more about doing the Lord's work.
Btw, for my second to the last comment, I meant to say something else, not someone else. 😅
Btw, 😏 sneaky little me went and was able to find out what Nadia and Agent look like. 😆 But alas, I couldn't find out what Micah looks like. 😟
But, tbh, I do kinda have an "ideal" car that I would hope to get if I ever bought a car... but chances are that I'll probably end up having to go with someone else. 😂
😂 I didn't really mean about my pic, but whatever.😂 Henry, yes, we should focus on heavenly things and not on this world. 😉
I don’t know. I dream more about heavenly things now. Do you have a dream car?
Also, what is everyone’s dream car?
Uhh, ok. You don’t look anything like I was thinking 😆
Isn't anyone gonna... say something?? 😩 This message wall has been dead all day. 😕😂
😆 Yeah, Nadia, good thing it wasn't in public! Oh, my! 🤣 But, I TOTALLY feel your pain. 😅 Whenever I'm around other ppl my age (which, like you, is rare 😂), everyone's probably like, "Oh, how old are you? 🤨 You're just a little tike." It's REALLY um...irking. 😂 But, whatever.
Oh, Nadia, that's good! 😂I understand how you feel about height. 😂 But remember that if you were to stand next to me, you would be taller by 2 inches! I have two friends that are a tad younger than me, and one of them is 5'7" and the other 5'9"! *cringes* 😬
I think I was 5'4" 1/2 at the time.....And NO it was in our basement xD that would have been EMBARASSING if it was at a laundry place.....*cringe* But whenever we go around people my age (which is rare) THEY'RE ALWAYS LIKE FIVE INCHES TALLER and I'm the short person 😂😂
Btw, Nadia, that story was hilarious. 😆🤣 Can't imagine how embarrassing that must've been. Was it at a coin laundry place?
@Micah, that's not fair you're that tall! 😥😒 @Nadia, don't worry. I can TOTALLY sympathize with you. 😅 Ppl usually think that I'm younger than I really am, probably mostly bc of my height. So, I can relate to being the "squirt of the bunch" 🤣😂 @Henry, I'd say that if I could be AT LEAST 5' 7'', I'd be satisfied with that. And I still have some hope that I'll grow more, so...😌
What height would you consider to be not short?
I was trying to stress that i am short 😝
That was random but also thats kinda cool xDD
I have literally gotten stuck in the washer before (you know those high ones with the barrel..? the old ones?) trying to crab a sick from the bottom of the barrel....
Yah I am 5’11 😆 Wait Agent, you mean Thursday May 20 or Thursday May 27?
you’re not short.... Nadia, you’re really not short
Micah, plz tell me you meant to say 4' 11", instead of 5' 11". 😖
Wow, everyone. 😯 Once again, I feel... small. 😂
@Micah turning 14 next Thursday
I’m... 5’11 😊 also I’m not an introvert or an extrovert... I’m more of a introvert but I wouldn’t say I was an introvert. It’s sounds like I’m sad or sum.
Haha!! xDD Well I don't have COVID so....don't worry :P
And, yeah, I think Nadia does need another cough drop... or two. 😂
Lol! Thanks for understanding, Agent! That's neat! I didn't really have any picture in my mind of how you look...😂 I'm 5'3", too! But I've stopped growing, and you probably haven't. 😕
Yeah, I think so. 😂 Agent, how old r u?
Nadia needs a cough drop.... again....
Oh, I’m 5’3”ish and have dirty blonde hair.... If that can possibly give you an accurate picture of what I look like 😛
Lol, @Roger and Vera.... I figured y’all thought I was a boy xD it’s totally fine, it’s happened before but in a more awkward situation 😂😂
lol. 😅 Wha' 'bout you? I mean with the introvert-extrovert thing.
Sup 😂 interesting conversation.
😊 Yeah, we don't have a lot of friends around here, either. So we have something in common, Henry. 😉
I’m like that too 😆 One thing is that I haven’t really met the right kind of people until I got this app 😊
I'm basically like Vera on that point, too. LOL. 🤣🤣
Yeah, definitely with the right kind of ppl 😅
but I'm not necessarily shy...
Yes, I love to socialize with the RIGHT kind I feel people. And that is very rare xD
ok...well then ig I am am Extrovert 🤣🤣
I would consider myself an introverted-extrovert. In person I'm REALLY shy (mainly with people I've never met before), but over the internet, I'm more outgoing. And I like socializing, but I don't get very many opportunities to do that in person. 😂
outgoing: friendly and socially confident.
Don't mind what I said about Michael. 😄 He removed his comment. 😂
what exactly is the definition of outgoing..
hmm well ig would be Extrovert then lol
(He's our youngest brother 😅)
Introvert would be you kinda like to keep to yourself, and you're kinda shy. Extrovert would be you thrive on interacting with others and you're outgoing.
uhhh idk.....hehe....what is the definition of each xD
Nadia, would you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert (this is totally of topic, if you didn't notice 😂)
😬 Hopefully Micah doesn't mind all these posts when he gets back. 😅
I know a few families who have similar "themes " xD
interesting xDD faith is a nice name!
And our two older sisters are Hope and Charity. 😁 Get the theme now?
And, moi REAL name is Faith. 😁
But of course you can still call me Vera. 😅
Christopher 😄 But you can still call me Roger. 😉
Lol what's your first name @Roger ;P
Nameless....tsk.......@Agent put it to thing ig lol
I thought the same thing about Agent!! It was the picture's fault. 😆 Ok, now I have it straight. What other surprises are you going to throw at me? 😂
Btw, speaking of real names, Roger is actually my middle name. 😉 Surprised?
Ok. Well, I've got that now. 😅
*dies* Yes....SHE is a GIRL.....
Okay...well, I guess that does kinda make sense since Charis is a girls name...but tbh, I had no clue she was a girl before I knew her name, and even after I knew, I still thought that she was a boy! 😅 But boy was I wrong!...or rather girl 😆 Ok, Wow. Well, now I know. 😄
ALL this time...I thought Agent was a boy! 🤣🤣😅 I can't believe that she's actually a girl! Plz excuse me, but---wow! 😂😂😅
Wait--*confuzzlement*🤔🤨...*shock*...😮😮*utter shock*😲😲😲*floored*.......
I also know her real name 😏😏😏😏😏😏
I know what agent looks like...😏😏😏😏😏
Agent, what do you look like?
😆🤣 lol. Oh, well I'm not sure if I want to know what little you thought I looked like. 😂
I wasn’t entirely sure what I thought you look like but that definitely threw me off
I have dirtyblonde colored hair and hazel colored eyes... if that helps any. 😂 Oh, and I'm 5' 5" right now.
Nadia, lol... about Micah. 😂😂 And you're probably right about how I look. 😅 Even I think that Vera and I look kinda similar. 😏... obviously.
@Roger: I think you look similar to Vera (but a boy of course...) xDD
BB...PartCom.....pfp.....you looked smashed between two ppl.... @Micah
what is she talking about? And also, like I had asked: what do you think I look like? 😂😉
oh i think i know what u r talking about.
Um... how... do... you... know... what... I... look... like...?
lol! Well, I know what Roger looks like...😏😝
😂So, does he have brown hair, like I thought? 😏
😂 that's not supposed to be creepy btw
I know what Micah looks like...😏
Hey, Micah (and anybody else) how do you imagine me to look? 😆 Just a random question. 😂 I don't really have a clear picture of you in my head, Micah, but I at least know that you have brown hair, right??
or pac-man whatever its called
And packman............once.....it was strange....
My family doesn't play video games for basically everything Roger said xDD 😂 Though the only "video games" I've ever played were arcades ever once and awhile whenever we go for a friend's birthday party....which is rare...xD
@MicahJustus, I play Howrse which is not very exciting but I’ve been playing it for 8 years 😂 I also play other games every now and then
😁 Btw, here's why Vera and I believe the same way: we were raised by the same parents, we are discipled by the same father, we both have the same Jesus and Holy Spirit inside of us, read the same Bible, and we're both of the same flesh and blood--thus,➡➡we believe the same way. Simple! 😂😂
Ok, well that's good. I think if you're doing it that way, there's really nothing wrong if you want to do that.
I sure don’t play any games with weird demonic characters 😂 I have limits on time too
We do not play the ones with demonic/evil/shooting.I play one that is basketball, and I only play for 30 mins per day. I feel like it is a good spending of my time sense it does not get in front of anything else and the content is good. What do you think?
@Micah, lol. Vera and I do believe very identically, don't we? 😂 Well, in answer to your question, we don't play video games. Most of them are really demonic and have demonic looking characters. Also, most are all about fighting and violence. Definitely not godly at all. And even if some of them don't have demonic characters, they're just a waste of time. 😅 And of course, Vera agrees with me. 😁
sounds.... Boring? But I would still play it just because.... loll
What is your stance on video games Vera/Roger (because basically you are the same person) 😂
Okay, so this video game.... You’re trying to spot a rare spotted zebra in the midst of all the striped zebras? 😂
😏 I totally knew I wasn’t 😂
Cool, Micah! I guess you weren't wrong after all. 😂
That's neat! I think I've heard of those before. : D
my pfp is a rare spotted zebra from Kenya fr
Wait, how did you come up with zebras?? They’re striped not spotted....
Ummm, no, I didn't prove your point. 😏 But let's not start up with that again. 🙄
Spot.... í.... fy...... hmmmmmm like one of the tenses of spotting something or... a a video game based on zebras 🤷♂️
U just proved my point! People use RRR for bad things, like spotify is! But, just like spotify it can be used for good!
Btw, doesn't the name Spotify sound like some type of skin disease?? 😂😂🤣 (just kidding)
Ha, ha, Micah. Very funny. 😉 I actually don't use Spotify, but my sisters do. And as long as your listening to godly, Christian music on it, I don't see a problem with it.
@Henry: Most the Songs sung by Joseph Larson are good
Hope that info is helpful! 😃
With Sounds Like Reign and David Wesley, you can, in addition to Spotify, find them on YouTube. Again, I'd have to do a little research to see which ones I like best, but I don't think David Wesley has albums, per say. 😄
Well that's good, Henry! I'm glad we agree. 😉 Um...albums? Well, I don't usually focus so much on the albums of the artists. I just kinda listen to individual songs, you know? But, I know a few albums from them that I like. Let's see...some ones from Hallal Music would be "Resurrection", "Highest Hope", and...well, I haven't even finished listening to all their albums, so idk, yet, which ones I like best. 😊 But from Steve Green, I know one of his albums that we have is "People Need the Lord". I really like that one. 😁 And then from Keith Green, I'm not sure, bc, like I said, I just listen to the individual songs. 😅 But I'm sure you'll like all of his songs.
Thanks Vera! This one is due in a week, so I better get started 😁
I agree that someone high is not led by the Spirit. This quote from Cash’s testimony comes to mind about being high: “the alteration of the mood vexes the spirit of communication, commitment, and worship to God.”
Also, any recommended albums by the artists you mentioned?
Thanks, I already do 🙂 Elvis was depressed and high, but he never wrote a song, only covered. Cash also covered traditional hymns and gospel, but he also wrote many biblical based songs, when he was well in Christ. He said himself that when did end up in depression/drugs, he was as far away from God as he ever was, so he probably wasn’t able to write any then. Yep the gospel songs set my mind on heavenly things, but yeah their secular music definitely do not
Then plz respond on the other message wall. The abbreviations are ‘the worlds way of doing things’
Micah, first of all, I don't have a clue what you mean about abbreviations. 😂 But, I still stand by what I said, and, so as to not get into a debate here, let's just stick with debating about "Christian" RRR on the other message wall. K?
Loll, autocorrect is pretty annoying at times
WHY is autocorrect so mean? It does what I don’t want then when I need it it lets me say losten!!! 🤦♂️ *Listen
Losten if we want to do it your way then why do you use abbreviations?
The lyrics are what matter! it doesn’t matter what lifestyle or beat there is! Your heart while you are listening to the music is what matters! if you can praise God while listening to Christian RRR then great! God is being worshipped! You CANNOT say that God only likes hymns/ calm Christian music! If someone is worshipping God in their heart then God receives that praise and worship.
Yes, it does mean we should NOT listen to those songs. Someone who writes a song when they're high is not being led by the Spirit and we shouldn't listen to them.
God worked through Michael W Smith even when he was high, does that mean we shouldn’t listen to those songs?
Henry, I'm glad to hear the essay's going well! 😁
Henry, it's ok about the long posts. I like to hear what you have to say. 😊 That's great that you made the switch from secular to Christian music. However, just a bit of friendly advice: Even with Christian music, we still need to be careful that the composer of the music was Spirit led when writing it. If that guy, or anyone for that matter is living in depression, you have to be careful, bc that can taint the music they write, thus tainting yours if you listen to it. The music we listen to should be heavenly and should minister life and set our minds on things above, not on earthly things or minister death. So, just a bit of caution and I suggest that you pray about it, too. ️😉
I don’t like writing either, but through Him who strengthens me, the essays have been going well
Apologies for the long posts, this subject is a part of my testimony
He still struggled with sin the rest of his life and was a very troubled man, which so have much to relate with. His life showed me that the worst of sinners can be saved. My ability to read is often very impaired, so I like to listen to his full recording of the New Testament
Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley. I used to really like their secular music when I knew nothing about Christ, but the Lord drew me away from that music to Him through the hymns/gospel music. Elvis had a nice powerful voice, but it Cash’s music and his story of redemption that I really got to me. He fell into the temptations of a star and became heavily addicted, to the point where he should have died many times, but it was only through the power of Christ that freed him.

Henry, that must be an interesting topic, but I don't like writing papers. 😄 And about the songs, that is really funny! 😂
And wow, wow about the songs! 😂😆 I sometimes can get stuck on a particular song, too. 😅 Which two artists have you listened to over and over again, if you don't mind my asking? 😊
Oh, wow, Henry! Quite the topic for your paper there! 😅
I’ve only been listening to the same songs on repeat by mostly 2 artists and haven’t tried to listen to anything else, so it’s going to take a while for me to go through your recommendations. For some reason I never get tired of listening to the same songs, but it’s is hard for me to like new songs. According to Spotify, I listened to this one song over 300 times. 😅
At least it’s double spaced. 😅 The essay for my English class is about possible solutions relating to prosecuting and incarcerating drug users. It’s suppose to be a follow up to my previous essay about the problem.
Oh, wow, Henry! Glad I'm not you! 😬😅😅 What's it about?
You're welcome! Oh that's alright! Don't worry. Ouch. That's not fun. 😬
Thanks for sharing, Vera and Roger! Sorry for the late reply; I’ve also been busy. I have to finish a project, but I’ll check out your recommendations after I’m done. Then I have a 10 page essay to write. 😫
Btw, I changed the name of my group to "Theological Debates (Overflow)" 😉 https://biblememory.com/Group/View/5e63a58747/
Henry, sorry I didn't respond sooner. I was busy this morning. Roger basically said it all. 😄 Some others I would recommend are David Wesley and Sounds Like Reign who sing CCM and hymns in harmony. One song that I really like is "Tell the Mountain" by the King Family (I haven't really listened to all their music, so I can't speak for all the songs, but I think they have a nice style.) But I think one thing that really makes a good song is not just the sound (tho that counts a lot), but also the lyrics.
Ok, Nadia (about the singing group) I'll check them out. : )
And anyone else can feel free to join us over there. 😉
@Nadia, you're totally right! They're not singing in tongues. Listen, Micah, I have a lot to say in response to you, but I know that you don't want theology over on this message wall, so let's go over to my other group, called Mighty Warrior Memory Group, and debate about it there, ok?: https://biblememory.com/Group/View/5e63a58747/
Plus my family has felt the Lord has removed us from all that. We used to listen to it, but that was something he cleaned us up after my parents got saved. That's just OUR experience.
2 Corinthians 6:17, is why we don't listen to "Christian" rap etc.
They're not singing in tongues... *facepalm*
Also I do believe there is no point listening to singers that speak in tongues. It is meaningful. God says not to do it unless there is an interpreter.
So rap, hip-hop, and reggae are not worldly if they are Christian Roger, because they are Christian. I find the kind of music you listen to boring, tbh, because it is just not much style. Also, Christian rap/hip-hop has led to thousands of people being saved. It’s hard to be a non-Christian listening to worldly music, to go straight to the bland worship stuff they are not used to. They might think “if this is what music is like for Christians, then maybe I’m in the wrong religion. Just because you don’t like, or because your parents don’t like, Christian hip hop, rap, and reggae music, doesn’t mean that other people can’t. Also, have you even listened to any Christian rappers? Do you even know what you are arguing against? And Agent 1618 yes 😊
@Henry, also, some other good ones to check out are Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir and the Maranatha Singers. 😉
The genres for the artists I suggested are--Keith Green: basically it's CCM, but not the worldly sounding kind, which is good. He lived in the 1950s to 80s and he played the piano REALLY well! 😁 Steve Green is also CCM. And Hallal Music is an acapella group that sings all of their songs in a blended harmony of different people singing. They're REALLY GOOD! They sing a combination of hymns and CCM songs. I'm sure you'll like all of these. 😉😄
@Vera: Its called "Family Worship Center Singers" ik they're on youtube...
Well, it's basically a type of music that kind of a disorderly beat or something like that. I'm not totally sure...bc I don't listen to it. 😊 But, yeah, stay away from those types. And also you even have to be careful about some gospel songs, bc some of them are just dead and void of meaning. So, not all, but some.
I also have no idea what reggae is and probably don't want to know LOL
I’m only familiar with traditional gospel music, but I’m going to check those artists out
Okay thanks ☺️. I don’t what reggae is, and I’m not into rock or rap anyways. What genre would those musical artists be?
I agree about rap, rock, and reggae.
I have to go to bed right now, Henry, (it's 11:45) but I'll get back to you tomorrow morning about the songs. ☺️
Well, Henry, like I said, some of the music artists I like are Steve Green, Keith Green, and Hallal Music. But I would def. stay away from rap, rock, and reggae Christian music. It's not godly and God doesn't need worldly style music, even if they are "Christian songs" to advance his kingdom.
any song recommendations?
Does anyone listen old Gospel songs/hymns? I haven’t really any listened to any more recent Christian music.
ummm, maybe we're discussing favorite music artists. It sure seems like it, tho I haven't said mine yet. 😊 ... uh, *gulp*, I'm looking through all my favorite songs, and I'm having a hard time narrowing my favorite artists to one or two. 😬 Sooo, I guess I'll just go with the ones I have the most songs from? Travis Cottrell, Sacrifice of Praise, The Mullett Family, Hallal Music, Crossgates Worship, Voices of Lee. And those are not even including all the ones that sing in other languages. (Note: I don't enjoy all the songs from all these artists. Some of them are too... contemporary, to put it simply.)
@MicahJustus, have you listened to rapzilla?
Nadia, I don't think I've ever heard of it. Next time I have my music account open, I'll have to remember to look it up.😁
Are we discussing favorite music artists now? 😏
I like the Swaggart's singer's music
I like them a lot, but I think there are other artists that I like better.
I like them but not my style like Micah said
Yeah, I really like them, especially Keith Green. 😄 He was really gifted on the piano!
Keith Green and Philips Craig and Dean. They r fine, not my type, but good 👍
That's neat! Which ones? Do you like them?
Btw, while we are on the topic of music, some of my fav music artists are Keith Green; Steve Green; Philips, Craig, and Dean; and Hallal Music. Have you ever heard of any of those?
Yeah. Prollay around that time period. Here's the song we were talking about: https://youtu.be/BmwG1-Vf6xM Like Vera said, we don't really listen to their songs (except for a couple).
Petra. . . Like. 70s. ? 😂
Micah, have you listened to the song by Petra? (We don't really listen to them, and they're not really my style, but...)
Micah! You. Are. Precisely. Correct. Brilliant.
Yeah. You. Are. Out. Of. This. World. Ha. Ha. Ha. Also. You. Are. In. This. World. But. Not. Of it.
Do you even know how I'm an alien?
You. Know. Micah. I. Am. Actually. An. Alien. L. O. L. 😐 Literally.
😂 This is pretty ridiculous! But funny...
Micah. Where. Did. You. Go. Don't. Just. Leave. Me. Here.
Um. Nothing. Much. Just. Debating. And. What. Not. What. About. You. 😐
Yes. We. Are. I. Am. Fine. So. What. Is. Up. In. Your. Life.
I'm. Fine. 😂 How. About. You? (are we trying to talk like robots now? 🤣🤣)
Yeah. That's kinda what I mean. :)
And we might be conservative, but not in the political way.
Wait. we are not more conservative then Liberal, sorry. We are neither swayed either way.
We are more conservative then liberal, but we do not part with any party, we also do not vote.
Cool, Micah! I was telling Vera that you probably were in Washington state, and I was right! 😎😎 (is that creepy or what? 😉😂) Now I know you don't consider yourself apart of any political party, but are you conservative or liberal?
I didn't exactly mean THAT specific. 😂 But very interesting, nonetheless.
The CITY 😂 of Yakima in the state of Washington 😆 the most conservative city in a liberal state ever 😂
if you don't mind... disclosing your location 😎... what state are you from?
Interesting! 😂 I don't think I have a strong New Hampshea accent. But once we asked some friends if they thought we had an accent, they said yes.
No tho, I’ve talked with people from Virginia and they sound the same
Micah, speaking of having a southern drawl 😂 do you have any kind of accent?
Oh, for the day? Oooo...😕... well let's just say that there's that French left and there's that history left. 😬😟
Interesting, Micah! Btw, I'm not from NC, so I DON'T have a southern drawl. 😆 I'm from New Hampshire.
That sounds kinda boring, Agent. xp
I only had math today although I do have to read Romeo and Juliet act 3 at some point.....
We're on the east coast (NC). And, no, sadly I'm not done with school. 😟 I still have that dreaded French left.
do you mean for the day or for the year?
Everyone done with school yet?
Micah, lol 😂 You could have borrowed Air Force One for the day, and you probably would have gotten here in plenty of time. 😂
That's too bad. 😕...😂 It's actually not that bad... just the time it takes! xD
I couldn’t have made it there in time Vera 😐
Nope. 😏 Don't care to right now, thanks. 😂
Hey! 😂 Right now there's not much theology to get away from... just a bunch of dishes to wash. 😕 Any volunteers??
I actually should have said we don't share the same sentiments. 🙄
😱😬 I share different sentiments. *nods* 😐 😂
What?? Dissection is so cool!
I bypassed that part, too. 😏 I agree, it's DISGUSTING!
Well, I'm doing biology and my mom's not even making me do the dissection.😜😜 So, no problem there for me. 😄
Same. 😄 What are your reasons for NOT wanting to do biology and wanting to do chemistry, Micah?
Just not really into all the chemical stuff and chemical equations.😅 I probably find biology more interesting, also. But, I can't really say for sure since I haven't done chemistry.
😬 I would rather do biology any day than do chemistry.
😐 I meant I chose to do chemistry instead of biology in the future.
😬 I chose to do physics Chemisty instead of Biology. I’m doing EC w/physical science rn
😂 Which book are you doing currently? I'm doing biology, and right now I'm trying to study for a test that has a TON of vocabulary words to memorize. 😅😅
And I have a test today 😆
I think he’s a great teacher too... just... I’m not a very good student 😂
Sometimes I enjoy math, but most of the time I don't.😂
Math isn't TOO bad. At least right, now. I'm doing Algebra II at the moment. Sometimes, it's not the difficultly of it that I dislike, it's the time it takes to write out all the long equations. 😅
I kinda enjoy math sometimes but at other times my brain doesn’t want to grasp these very simple concepts 😂
@Micah, 😲 you use Jay Wiles and STILL hate science??!! I think he's a great teacher. But, whatever. 😂😂
Really! Yeah, I understand... I HATE algebra... no I'm not still stuck in that book... but I hated it when I was. 😂
I do use Jay Wiles... its just... I hate science
YES! Math-U-See and Dr. Jay Wiles are great curriculums! 😁 I'd say that French is DEFINITELY my least favorite subject. But I also really don't like history.
Lol!! 😂 Agent, you should try Math-U-See, and Micah you should try Dr. Jay Wiles.😃 They both are great teachers.
Loll, @Vera me and math right there....
@Roger no I meant Sethers..... jk.... but really he should get some evidence.
maybe you should call it the "Get Away From French" group. 😏 Ok, I REALLY have to go.
don't mind my short-circuited-by-French brain, right now. 😂
Hello, everybody! 👋😁.... I need to take a French test right now, but French?? ugh! especially tests. 😒 I'd rather be doing something else... that's why I'm delaying it by being on here... ok, gotta go.
Micah, do you mean yourself? 😂😁 (jk) 😉
😂👍 half the people in there can’t really debate 😂 jk jk jk
I'm 12. 😁 And I'm not really that good at debating, so that's why I'm not on the other group. 😉
I realize you aren’t in the other group 😂
Hey Michael! How old are you?
Hi!😁 (I'm Vera and Roger's younger brother.) 😀
Me too... but I'm almost to the finish line. 🏁😃
Track? Interesting! Are you homeschooled?
Great! I'll go respond...
I just got back from track 😂And I did just for you @Vera. I doubt you will disagree with me, but who knows 🤷♂️
I'm wondering if anyone's going to say anything on the debate wall... it's kinda been one sided for the whole day...
@Vera, I’m always watching the debates but rarely say stuff anymore (not creepy at all ik)
Hello! 👋 Everyone getting ready for the big debate? 😉 I wonder if anyone but you (Micah), Nadia, Roger, and I still check the debate wall. 🤷 Well, I guess I'll take these few minutes of "quiet before the storm" to do some things on my "really need" to-do list that I've been putting off. 🤦
yah me too. we just have to remember that these things are not that important and that God said we would have our disagreements. I am so looking forward to the end when we will all have one mind (figuratively)
I can easily let myself get frustrated by them.... especially if it’s about something really believe
I’m trying to decide if I want to participate in a debate 😂
I think 9th grade was the best musically...
And if you want to debate the clean and unclean or he’ll go to the other group to vote
and the 9th grade one 🤷♂️ 😂
But I like Eternal and we against the world the best
Yeah, I was figuring but wasn’t entirely sure
Holy Spirit and washed in the blood
The ones about the trinity
😆 May I ask which ones? Not going to get into the theology just curious
Except the songs I don’t agree with... but no theology... 😂
I have now listened to it twice 😂
hey AuroraBeam, have u listened to Hulveys new album? (I’m assuming u have but just checking)
...just kidding 😂😜😉😊 Don't worry, In not going to try to bring that up over here. 😀😆
Oh, hey guys! 😁👋 How's it goin over here? Hey! I've got a great idea! Let's discuss theology! 😀
Thanks! Ill look at it later.
https://youtu.be/rxDGfjQ_fGE
Found one
With amazon music, YouTube, and Spotify 😝
Do you listen with Amazon music? Idk if gio. has music videos.. I can look tho
It’s kinda weird... 😂 but cool 👍
Wait... In what way is he not what your used to listening to? Not in a bad way I hope 😆
I’ll listen to gio. later, also I had trouble finding the right person, can you maybe post a link to a music video by him? Thanks
yo tylerhateslife is... not what I’m used to listening to 😂 he’s cool tho 👍
I’ll listen to em later... when I’m not doing school... school = 😩
nope, never heard of em... r they good?
Speaking of fun stuff, @MicahJustus have you listened to gio. or tylerhateslife?
Ohh, getting away from the theology......
Haha! I sometimes think I am just talking to myself
Cool! sometimes we can get a bit heated haha😂
Vera! (why do I feel like I’m talking to myself?)
So Sethers........................ -mind blank- ................... who was your sis? was it Nadia or......... my brain! ummmm... the other person 🤦♂️
But really it’s about getting away from da other group where we sometimes get heated and come in here and tal’ about fun stuff, like sports, or pizza. 🤷♂️
