it was wonderful

listening to: lots of music in my head. nothing in particular.

Fes2val was cool! 2 man bands can be sweet. i'll write about it later, maybe tomorrow. i hope.

just want to get this down before i go to bed.

after fest2val i went to courtney's place to hang out with people. cam and evan were there and it was cool seeing them. most people were drinking/smoking. it's not my style, i don't like it much. a fire got started and i was sitting at it with some other people. then the most incredibly unexpected thing happened. we talked theology.
and we talked bioethics.
and we talked religion.
and we talked about how to pronounce sigur ros.

and it was awesome!
i did not in any expect these kind of conversations to come up tonight, but they did and i loved it. we talked about God and love and how some people just miss the message and want to shout judgement down on everyone. we talked about how sometimes the people who speak up the loudest are the one's who don't have things right, and how that's so unfortunate. we talked about the value of life and about wether it's right to save a 20-week premature baby that may survive but even if it does it will forever live with disabilities physically and psychologically. and we talked about how in the past these choices never had to be made because they weren't possible, but now we're faced with having to choose between never living or living a life that's guaranteed to be hard. but there's always the choice. and we don't know the future, we don't know how a life will be lived out and how other lives might be affected by it.

it was all just.... great.
the people were cool. one was a pastor's daughter and a handful are going to Calvin. away from the fire there was a kind loud discussion going on about the Bible, but i think there was too much alcohol over there.

just really really unexpected.

and i got a goodbye kiss on the cheek from cam and courtney simultaneously. cam had been drinking. haha. good times.

i'll recap the concert stuff later. i need sleeeep!

i never seem to go to bed on time saturday nights. ah well.
