Yep. Just as I thought…boring. In church today, I had enough time to read Titus, like Micah had suggested the last week of school to the college class. It is a book that I should have read a long time ago, and it only took 10 minutes to read.

I saw two girls that I have had a crush on for a while there at church, but they are too young for me at the moment (under 18, I don’t know how old they are, but they’re in high school.) I didn’t make any effort though. I usually don’t until there is a reason for me to be talking to them.

Anyway, Beth (my best friend) called today! Yeah! I hadn’t talked to her in a while. And the last time we communicated was online the last week of school. I have come to find out over the years that I am the reqason that she started coming online. Her first year (and mine) of college, we talked every night, either in person or online, or both. I learned a lot about girls from her, and she learned a substantial amount of information about guys from me (as well as my thoughts on girls and relationships). We knew each other inside out and were always finishing each other’s thoughts and sentence, often times saying the exact same thing at the exact same time, as if we were always on the same page…later termed “the Page Principle.”

But as you may or may not know, I hate to use the phone. So I didn’t have too much to say when she called. But I tried to carry a conversation. I usually bring up a subject and hope she has a lot ot say about it, but because we talk so infrequently now, it is hard to do it. It’s ok, at least she calls…none of my other friends have called yet. So far, coinsidence or not, my ex-girlfriend, a girl from Jay’s church (kimberly), and beth are the only people that have contacted me since I left etbu.

I got a new picture fram from my grandparents with their picture in it, so I took them out, and put a picture of the Group in it. It looks nice. I almost changed Amy’s picture today to Beth’s (before she called, which was wierd timing) but I decided to leave it.

Willy Wonka came on tonight…we only watched a little of it though. I thought of “Mindy Lou Whoo” (as well as all the other Merle Girls I knew). I also wondered how hard it would be to do the Matrix hallway scene (the one at the end where everything is coverend in number when Neo “sees” the Matrix in the end) for Candyfest. I decided that it would be way too time consuming to cut thousands oif 1s and 0s. Then, this is wierd, but without mentioning any of what I was thinking, my mom asks what the Matrix was about. Hmm…(do we live in the Matrix?!?) So I did my best to explain it to her, to no avail…simply because I could not find the right words. She would have to see it to understand – which is what I’m going to do when I get to use my computer…I need to ask what the ruling on that will be if I become manager. Since I will be making enough money that I won’t need a second job, and will have to do work on the computer for manager’s job anyway. Hopefully they will let me have a couple hours a day on it. Perhaps I can strike up a deal with them.

Well…hmm…I’m out of stuff now. I had a thought process from church to write about, but I don’t remember what it was.

I told Beth to tell Benji my new plans and that I wouldn’t be online in the fall as expected. But I will think of something. I always do. However, it may be next August 2004 that I do think of something.

I want to come up with a top 5 list for my journal as Benji has done, but I don’t remember them…they were stored on my computer so that I didn’t have to remember them.

I guess that’s all for tonight. I’ll work on some more neat stuff for the journal. I also want to design a website for my friends and I to hang out in. I’ll be working on that too…but I need a name. Something catchy…like The Lobby, or Chilly’s Tree House, or something. Anyways…laterz.

Thought: “Well, Amy didn’t call today, so that means that she is waiting to call still, or doesn’t care as much as she lead me to believe. Beth says I deserve someone better…I thought she was…hmm…that’s just my luck with girls.”

I'm Neo, creator of the-spot.net. This journal is a digital form of the paperback journal that I kept each day from December 21, 2002 until March 23, 2003. It details my life experiences during those three months: the transition from college sophomore to adult, interactions with my parents, and general life after leaving the private college on-campus "bubble". These days I'm much better now, and living on my own. I haven't talked to my parents since May 2005 when my brother graduated high school.

2006:

I don’t remember what Titus was about…I guess I’ll have to read it again.
I don’t remember who those two girls were either…but I know that having any kind of interest in girls was risky business with that set of parents.

Beth and I best friends and it was great. It was one thing that we hated to lose after we broke up in 2004. I left out that Cracky had also called, when listing people that made contact.

I still have that picture of my grand parents, and the frame, which still has the picture of the Group in it.

That was a very wierd day though – so many things happening coincidentally.

And when I tried to explain the matrix, I had to explain it in such a way that it would not offend my mom that I had seen it. To explain what it was really about, would have put me into a lecture that evening.

Beth never did tell Benji my plans that changed…but eventually we talked, when I got back online.

I did manage to create Top 6 lists for the first version of the site, but I only made a few.
