Doodle

A while back I bought myself some nice pens and a notebook and have been blogging in it. Sort of... Anyway I can do it while I'm at school or on the bus so I'll probably be posting pages from it now and then. Maybe we'll see if I can get any better at drawing with pen.

All Growed up

It's my birthday again. People keep telling me I really am an adult now. All I can think of is these bits of Pooh-ness


As you can see, my hand writing still looks like a child's as does my spelling. All in all I feel much more like a stream than a river. But I am starting to figure out where I'm going so I guess it's okay.

Wrong airport

I had a long conversation with a Muslim... I guess it was three weeks ago. That was interesting. We talked about the Koran (Quran? Qur'an?) for a while. He was trying to get me to question the origins of the Bible but take the authority of the Koran without any scrutiny. The Bible was written too long after Jesus died to have described Him accurately while the Koran has incredible detail about His life. He moved on quickly when I asked him how many years after the death of Christ the Koran was written. He was trying to convince me that Jesus was not God. For some reason he seemed to think that if God were going to become man (and He would never bother doing such a silly thing) He would do it in a more extraordinary way. Becoming a baby was too normal. I tried to explain to him that He did it out of love but at that point we got to the air port and I handed him a terrible wad of bills and promised myself never to be caught at the wrong air port with out a car again. Taxi drivers are scary enough without trying to convert you to Islam.
