Subject:I'm engaged?
Time:08:53 am
I last updated 33 weeks ago. That is amazing. I'm not really updating now either...I mean, I guess I am...but really, anyone who comes here to check up on my going ons might go to Lisa's xanga instead. http://www.xanga.com/joplinlk/ I'm sure she is going to keep more up to date.

It has hit me that in 33 weeks, I may not have been engaged when I last checked in...definitely not. Lisa and I got engaged on May 17, and will be married September 15 (that's in 12 days).

We now live in St. Louis. I coach and work as a sub. She works at Lindenwood University as a librarian. We will not own pets.

the end...for now.

So, I do this year end newsletter, called the Luke Young Year In Review (+ Lisa), that I send out letting people know how the year went and stuff. You know, your parents probably get them from other middle aged people (apologies to any hurt middle aged persons who may be reading this). Well mine is soooo much better.

Better than what? If you want to find out, just send me an actual real life not email address where you could possibly pick one up from. You don't want to miss the loveliness that is the LYYIR+L.

Subject:an Update for FY06 Second Quarter
Time:09:11 am
Current Mood:[mood icon] have to pee
Hey Journal.

I know I know, I've been a bad friend. I have to admit that I've lost interest in sharing information with you though. Please don't hate me, Journal. So, anyway, I'm in my last year (please, Lord) of grad school. I'm looking for a career in the USPS, hopefully a city carrier, but have yet to take a test or speak to anyone with the USPS about these opportunities. I've also yet to tell anyone in the art world about this, because I doubt very seriously that they would understand or be supportive. In fact, five minutes ago I was chastized by a drawing professor for coaching volleyball and being a waste of space in the MFA program here. I didn't make any argument back, but I did wonder if said professor wasn't in support of MFA candidates having jobs to support themselves while getting an education. Sure, the volleyball thing is volunteer work, but said professor doesn't know that.

So, I'll keep you updated in the Third or Fourth Quarter about what is going on with this USPS stuff. The main thought being that I want to directly serve the community and have an opportunity to build relationships with a wide range of people. Plus I love being outside in all weather, the grosser the better in most cases. I hope that this is in DeKalb, but the word is that I would receive a position within a 30 mile radius if hired.

Lisa and I are two days from our 8 month anniversary. We realized in a phone conversation a couple days ago that while we have certainly have a number of arguments and discussions about our relationship, we've yet to even consider the idea of breaking up or taking a break (whatever that means). So, I would consider that exciting, and I do. I look forward to many years to come with my lady Lisa.

And I think finally I will share that I am still pursuing illustrations of the Old Testament through images of robots. I've reverted to pen and ink drawings on paper, as well as paint marker drawings on different media. I'm enjoying myself and hopefully glorifying God with the work of my hands. I'm also still collecting my nail clippings and bandages from giving plasma for future unknown work. I still find both collections beautiful and disgusting in nature, and am thinking of how I can display this most effectively.

And how are you doing?
Luke

Sunday is the 17th, marking mine and Lisa's 6 month anniversary. It's kindof like cheating, celebrating anniversaries when we haven't seen each other for a full month. I miss her quite immensely. I am visiting my mom for the night before heading back to DeKalb after a week of working a volleyball camp for Zach's high school team. Mom is crazy and has many pictures of Lisa and I posted around the house. I think Mom may have more pictures of us than we do...maybe. It's close. BUT, it's nice. I get to see my girl when I go to the fridge, get on the internet, walk to the bathroom. I'm just walking around smiling, because that seems to be my reaction to seeing Lisa these days. I can't wait for her to come home.



But, she is doing great work in Macedonia, and I really don't want to rush her home from that or distract her from her mission. A big praise for the girl who gave her life to Christ last week. Lisa has been been asking for prayer about feeling content with God's work, whether she sees the fruits of her labor immediately or not.

I love the descriptions of Macedonia, and I think I wouldn't mind visiting there someday. I have friends in Kosovo who'd I'd love to visit, so I'm sure that Lisa and I could work it out to make a trip sometime in the next...10 years?

Mom got a odor thing for the bathroom that shoots out a spray thing I guess every 10 minutes. Earlier I was in there dropping the kids off at the pool, and the thing went off without warning. Let's just say I'm lucky I was sitting where I was, for it was surprising and caught me a bit off guard. It just went off, and the best thing I can describe it is maybe the sound of a cat sneezing. But it is much louder when it is coming from the very throne that you're set upon.

I'm growing the beard back. It's one week full now, in three when I see Lisa again it should look quite manly. For now, I must sleep, the drive to DeKalb is 5 hours, and sometimes I get tired. Once in DeKalb I'm running two clinics next week for Northern Illinois Volleyball Club, then the week following I'm running my Cornerstone Christian Academy team's camp, then it's a week in Wisconsin for vacation, then I get to dance with my baby.

The happy kind of dance.

Subject:An update to end June.
Time:07:08 pm
Current Mood:[mood icon] sore
It has been quite a bit since I've written in here I think. I'm currently at my mom's for the evening before I head back to DeKalb to see mewithoutYou play at the House Cafe. I had a couple weeks after school to settle down and hang out with Lisa before volleyball camps started. Then they started and Lisa went to Macedonia.

I worked NIU's all skills camps for a week before leaving DeKalb for St. Louis for Washington University camps for two weeks. I was supposed to work Zach's Champion Setting Camp in St. Louis the same week as NIU's camps, but was offered the job at NIU which let me stay closer to Lisa for one extra week before we were separated, which is the end of week 2 of 7 weeks.

So when I left for St. Louis, Lisa had one week left packing and moving out of DeKalb to her mom's before leaving for a mission trip in Macedonia. I've gotten a few emails from her now, and she is loving it, in much different ways than I would enjoy it...which is interesting. I think it would be easy for me at this point to get frustrated if we were traveling together based on what we find fun or meaningful. She has proven to be much more patient than I know myself to be.

I think "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" is interesting in a social sense. I think it is funny to sit in a room and know the answer to a question that I think is easy while the contestant or someone else in the room is completely stumped or has never even heard of the subject. I find myself sitting back and judging others based on the fact that I know some stupid bit of trivia or history. I wish I could get to a point of not trying to make myself seem better than somebody else as a sense of worth.

So the rest of the summer holds three more volleyball camps, a fourth of July in DeKalb, a sixth of July with my sister for her birthday in St. Louis, and a vacation at the cabin in Wisconsin before starting volleyball practice on August 7. I must run now though, because I haven't replied to Lisa's last email and need to do that before I find myself in front of the TV!

peace in the middle east homies.

Subject:getting old
Time:02:24 pm
Current Mood:[mood icon] french
I think I'm getting older. I'm basing this on things that I consider to be old man things. well if not old man, at least middle aged man things. I am NOT excited about the amount of hair that has started to sprout on my upper arms. Zach and Josh have both at some point in time pointed out that I can grow a better beard than they can, and while this is true, it just points to the fact that I'm also hairier than them. this means back hair and now upper arm hair. I'm not sure if the trade off is fair. I'm down with a beard and the freedom to shave creative facial hair, but is it worth being unattractive at the beach?

the other thing that I consider to be rather middle-agey are veins on legs. I noticed yesterday that I have a vein that is starting to protrude on my left calf. I think about 10 years ago I would have been excited about that, but today when I know I'm not really working out enough to have leg veins, I think maybe my body is just trying to make room for some things or whatever. whatev.

in other news, me and Lisa have been together for over 4 months now. w00t. I like her. she showed me a video of her and her basketball team her senior year of high school. I realized as I was watching that I had no desire to be with anyone else on her team except her. even if she did have a hick accent in high school (boy am I glad that disappeared before I met her).

the summer is here. Lisa keeps asking me to play disc golf and I keep saying yes (because if she weren't asking, I'd be out playing by myself I'm sure). I have a little over a week before I get to go home for my dad's wedding. I'm looking forward to being back home. I haven't been home for a couple months at least, and for a very quick visit. I think that is what it is; I hate quick visits. This time I'm planning on being there from Thursday night to Sunday night or Monday. Time to see everyone AND take it easy. usually I just get to see everyone.

and lastly, I hate the way Subway cuts its bread now. I miss the days of the U-gouge. I know they'd still cut it that way if I ask, but I don't ever feel like being pushy. I'll deal.

Subject:the adventures of leenis and tomwes
Time:05:12 pm
I just farted so much. I know that is a lame post, but I really just wanted to write something. I guess I could write something to the effect of:

Thank you Leenis and Tomwes for your CDs. I think it is awesome of you guys. The mixes speak so much about our personalities, it's funny. I laughed the whole time as Lisa tried to figure out why Lee would put such random stuff on a mix. She was trying to do a Bible study when we were first listening to it, and when Rage Against the Machine came on she made me turn it off. Later in her car, she enjoyed it much more. I've yet to hear Tom's mix, but by the titles, I was a bit jealous that she was the recipient of said mix.

thank you for your donations guys, I miss seeing you more often. Anyone else who has free time, please send my miss a mix!

my sister has the funniest poop stories. the highlights include 1992 when she pooed poolside under a bush at a hotel/resort in Orlando, FL. given, she was in elementary school then. 1997 she poos while swimming with Josh and Grandma in Wisconsin and she and Josh quickly get Grandma to swim faster so she won't swim into it (grandma doesn't know of the poo to this day). on a jog in 2005 Sarah realizes she is too far from home to get back in time so she pit stops on someones lawn. not in the woods, not behind a car, in someone's lawn as the sun was going down.

I love my sister.

PS: I've received one mix so far (thanks Gunner II...I think Travis is Gunner III, right?) It would be AWESOME to get a few more. I'd love to see what kind of mixes Trav and Rach would send, as well as Amy, Hy ee, and Lee. Joel is too lame to send in a mix probably. I think that covers all of the people who actually read this. Oh yeah, Alex...we actually see you in the person, so you should probably help out too! see previous post for more information.

Interests: you, cutie. music books familiar faces john cusack God. more when it's not 2:30 am..

thats what Lisa's Xanga lists as interests. I have loved that list since I read it. Mostly the "you, cutie." part. I can see her saying it, that's wonderful.

So, I think in a recent post or last post I said I expected a GTA position for next year. The interview went great, and I heard back that a couple people on the panel thought so as well, not to mention an encounter with the head of the department who it seemed wanted me to check my mail. All these things had me thinking I was a shoe in...but I guess not. I'm bummed, but not overly. I hope this means I get to be with my volleyball team more. I just don't know what this means in an art sense.

so yeah. not much else to say. I have a ton of things to say I guess, but I won't write sappy girlfriend stuff in my journal. The above insert was about as sappy as I wanna get here. anyway, I'm done and off. Any continued/new prayers about my future would be wonderful. Also I'd love for prayers for Chelsea who just got her LDS mission call and I have no idea what that means, looks like. She is really excited, and I want to be. I just don't know if I should be, or how to be. So, yeah. thanks.

Subject:Engaged Friday 2/17
Time:05:56 pm
February 17th. I'm going to need to remember that. so here it is for archival purposes. ENGAGED and Seth Deming are playing a concert in an hour. w00t.

I am a romantic, but when it comes down to actually being romantic, well, this one time in particular, I really really blew it. Not in a horrible way, just I should have treated something a bit better probably. sorry.

GTA stuff: (thank you Brad Gunner for asking!) I am pretty pretty sure I got a position. I went to a Gallery opening on Thursday and was greeted very warmly by the GTA Coordinator and she asked if I had gotten my mail yet, and I told her no I hadn't. I could tell she was happy and wanted to congratulate me, but she just told me that she thought I should get my mail ASAP and smiled. she also spit a hunk of broccoli on my ring finger and didn't apologize. I was very uncomfortable with the whole ordeal.

I didn't say much of it, but I prayed about the interview and really just asked that God take control of the whole thing. If he wanted me to get a position, I was going to do as much as possible to get it, but I needed him to be the one to actually handle the interview, and I believe he did. I wasn't nervous, I was able to answer questions, I was honest, the interviewers were very open and welcoming to responses. It made me think perhaps I might be ok teaching for a career. That is what I really pray will be evident, if God is wanting to use me as a professor somewhere, then this GTA stuff should really help out in forming that.

In other news, Kewpie Doll Girl and Bandana Guy. I like the ring of it. I don't know how much I am allowed to say, but I am dating someone, for anyone who only reads this and doesn't hear from me. I'm happy. the end.

and please pray for my application in for the GTA teaching postions. I am very nervous about doing it, but desparately want to know what God has in store for me...and if it's teaching then I need to teach, yo?

and in other news, I hate having things that I don't feel like telling anyone. are those secrets? I guess so. I want to get married, but then I get freaked out by the thought of that happening anytime very soon. no worries at least: I'm single. so why am I freaking out? I don't know, thanks for the reminder! bye.

Oh, in other news, I looked at my old art yesterday. I enjoy my style, but realize how much I am not that person anymore. I don't see any of that art point to God. My prayers recently are that I would glorify Him in new creation. my old artwork was very selfish. I'd enjoy your prayers on the subject. thanks.

Oh, and I just typed my subject and realized how much I LOVE coaching volleyball. And it's not really volleyball I guess, it's working with kids. I have a passion for volleyball, but sharing it with others is simply delicious. Yesterday I actually saw coaching work...maybe the most blatantly ever:

Nicole has a cautious swing that rarely puts the ball over the net with much strength. I took her aside and told her to keep her shoulder open and as she is swinging to bring it through with her armswing coming over the top of the ball on contact. She feigned acknowledgement and got back in the hitting line. the next ball she cranked I mean, freaking whaled on it. it was AWESOME! but that isn't what I know proved the coaching. it was the look. right after she hit the ball she flinched as if she had no idea what just happened. she didn't know that she could do that. I wish I could watch those 2 seconds again. I really want to see these girls excel at the sport. what does this mean for us? I think God delights in seeing us grow and learn and wants to see us excel as well.

Preachers do that on purpose. Tell stories to get a point across. It's effective, but I find it funny as just tried to do the same. I'll admit, mine was an afterthought.

hi Alex.

AND finally, where have all the bandanas gone? I used to be so cool and grungie. now that I live with Tobie and Anna, I take a shower everyday, even every morning. I think I don't want Anna to see me dirty. I feel like it would be disrespectful for her to see my gross bedhead or something. I'm weird.

Subject:diddle in the kitty
Time:05:11 pm
so I like to type in mostly undercase (or lowercase, whatever), except when I am speaking of God, or certain pronouns which I think deserve some type of capitalization, or when I type the word I. I have known myself, since I have known in my own head, that I am not typing the I capitalized because I feel that I am important enough to warrant capitalization. no no no. I do it, because I dislike this: i. it looks lonely and kinda ugly. whereas, this: I is a straight on niceness. so, please, if you ever read my mostly undercase action and then see me calling myself the all powerful I, just know that it is an aesthetic thing, not an ego thing.

in other news though, I love the word diddle. it means something small literally. and that is what the dot over the i is called. .=diddle

Subject:top ten tv shows
Time:11:34 am

What happened to Lee? What happened to Brandon und? anyway...

I got a new survey from somewhere...I have no idea at this point.  but anyway, top ten shows of all time!  I was super bored so I also included my B Sides which I also enjoyed but am reluctant to call favorites.  this is all quite funny as I am moving in days and moving into a household devoid of television.  movies and music from now on.  anyway, enjoy.  OH, and I took the time to get some wikipedia links, so check them out too for almost every detail imaginable about the shows.

Favorite TV Shows of All Time 

10. The Letter People (PBS) - oh man.  no one ever remembers this show, and it is a fleeting memory for me as well.  but I still remember the theme song and sing it often.  "Come and see the Letter People, come and be in the family! Words are made with Letter People, A B C D follow me!" Oh, I loved the classic characters of Ms. A and Mr. T...not the pity the foo'in' T.  Mr. T had tall teeth.  Ms. A was an apple.  I did like that show, and if it were on tv at all now I'd watch it everyday.

9. The Jetson's (ABC) - one time the bus got stuck in some mud after school and I cried because I was going to miss the Jetson's.  ask Zach, he still brings it up every so often to embarass me.  I loved this show, but have been dissappointed with the spinoff movies, such as The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones.  boooo.

8. The New Yankee Workshop (PBS) - I love learning how to build stuff.  Norm Abram worked on This Old House as well.  I just loved finding out things like making a new chair into an antique by sanding certain areas so the finish is worn away.  fascinating.  I used to watch this Saturdays at Graceland with Johnny C if I woke up early enough. 

7. The Cosby Show (NBC) - who doesn't love this show?  raise your hand cause I am going to punch you in the face.  I had a crush on Rudy and still do, cause she is beautiful now.  seriously.  anyway, I loved the family feel of the show, and Bill Cosby's humour is priceless and timeless.

6. Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood (PBS) -  Cardigans.  Indoor sand boxes.  A fantasy world.  what is there not to like?  I watched this show through college.  I think my favorite episode was when some street kid taught Mr. Rogers how to breakdance.  he tried to moon walk and do an eggroll on some cardboard in his astroturf lawn.  I cried it was so beautiful.

5. CSI: (CBS) - I love this show.  I love all things dealing with sequence and order.  this show is all about doing things in an order for an outcome.  I love it.  which is funny, because I HATE CSI:Miami.  that show is obnoxious.  I have similar feelings for Law & Order, but we'll get to that.  anyway, I am thankful that Spike has picked up CSI.  I love those marathons.

4. Golden Girls (NBC) - The number one show for gay men.  And then there is me...I don't know why I love it, except that my mom loved this show and I loved watching it with her.  I really think Sophia is one of the funniest characters of all time.  Rose is awesome too...really this show was just put together perfectly.  You didn't have to be female, gay, or elderly to enjoy.

3. Law & Order (NBC) - This show is great.  deservedly so as it is in the top 3 I guess.  I loved Detective Briscoe, but I think they are doing a good job of replacing characters and keeping the show fresh.  They don't mind dealing with some things that are either new in current affairs or a little risque.  Similarly it is a show based on sequence of events, like CSI:.  And like CSI: I hate the spinoffs.  I'll actually watch the Law & Order ones though...they are just a little annoying with character development.  WHO CARES?!  It's a show about justice or lack thereof...not about whether or not the cop has a family.

2. Seinfeld (NBC) - I didn't think I liked the show that much when it was on the air, but if it is on tv at this point I cannot help but watch it.  It is the perfect comedy, dealing with the little meaningless seeming things of our lives everyday.  Who hasn't wanted to sleep under their desk? for real?!

1. Late Night with Conan O'brien (NBC) - I loved this show with Andy Richter, and thought it would fizzle with his departure.  I think it is funnier now than when it started though.  I don't know how many nights I've watched at least the first half hour when it is just Conan being funny.  I often go to sleep with him.  yeah, creepy.  And he loves Chuck Norris...so, obviously this show is numba 1.

 

B Side almost favorites, not in a ranking order (on the brink of loving, but something holds each one back):

A. Who's the Boss? (ABC) - I can't admit to loving a show with Judith Light starring. B. Sex in the City (HBO) - this chick series was good, but I really only liked it cause I hoped to see the red head naked I think. C. Cheers (NBC) - my love for this show comes from loving to see my dad watch it. D. Full House (ABC) - my roommate Ashish from freshman year watched this everyday.  I didn't like it until he shared the love with me. E. Oz (HBO) - what an intense show, very racy and fast paced.  I got drawn into the characters and would stop anything I was doing to watch it, but I'm not sure I'd watch it now...at least not without a fast forward button. F. Family Guy (FOX) - oh adult swim, thank you for bring it back to life. G. Trading Spaces (TLC) - I used to have the hugest crush on Paige Davis. I always wanted the show to do more, but it got/has gotten to a point where it's just the same each time. H. Iron Chef (FOOD) - if you have an hour to devote, it's simply divine...but if you miss the first half hour it's almost boring.  and then a commercial break before naming the winner?  I don't know how many times I missed the crowing of the winner because I was watching something else. I. Subterranean (MTV2) - music that falls under the radar...i.e. good music that never gets played on tv. J. Sportscenter (ESPN) - Josh has gotten me to fall in love with sports once again and now I watch Sportscenter in some form every day.

AND I KNOW! "what? where is Saved By the Bell? (NBC)?"  well the thing is, I didn't like Saved By the Bell as much as many people did.  I liked it fine, but if it came on tv now, I'd be mostly apt to change the channel.  I liked the SBB back in the day though, I liked it ok, but mostly I liked that I was hanging out with Zach cause he loved watching it.
