Yeah, I know, I've been pretty scarce with my postings lately. Hmmm, newsworthy stuff...

Well, I've been trying to find work, still. I've got some ideas in mind and some resumes and cover letters out, but I'm gonna hold back on talking about what I've found until I either find a job or know I'm not gonna get it, simply because I know there are people out there that are looking for work and have similar qualifications, and some of those people either read this or know people that read this. Sorry, no offense to you guys, but I just don't want competition.

I've also been playing through a ton of Super Mario World hacks, really just for some challenge and some new levels. I've beaten Super Demo World: The Legend Continues with all 120 exits (play it and you'll know why that's difficult, and why it's really awesome) and I'm trying to play a whole bunch of other ones right now. There's some really good stuff out there when it comes to that. There's a slew of other good stuff from that website that's really worth playing. Go check out the Featured Hacks section and enjoy.

Oh, and I'm getting baptized on the 27th! Yay! Here's my (shortened) story, I guess. Basically, I've been a Catholic for a lot of my life, but that was boring for me at the time, and I eventually decided to become an atheist. Well, that didn't last too long, because God was calling me and I eventually went back, though I felt really guilty about it. Then things happened at the start of Grade 12 (that I really don't feel like elaborating for a few undisclosed reasons) and I felt that I didn't really have any other options, so I prayed and I really started to trust God then. Well, things got better, especially with the retreat in March of last year, where I think I did finally accept Christ then. I say "I think" for a reason, because as time went on, I completely lost track of what I had done then, because I fell back into sin and it got to me so badly that I felt that I didn't deserve God's grace and I was trying to earn it on my own efforts, though I still wanted to go through with baptism when it came around, hoping things would get better. Well, last Thursday I was taking the remedial baptism class (I was still in Victoria when the real one was taking place) and everything in the sentence before this one was actually made public. With the help of the people around me, I (re-)accepted Christ and now things are getting better and better. I know that no matter what I do, God still loves me and He can help me do what is right. I know I'm not perfect, but that doesn't matter, because I'm forgiven for that. So, I'm getting baptized on the 27th of this month at Rolley Lake. Why not come on down?
