what does the word 'change' truly mean? according to the dictionary on my computer: change--"to become different, or make something or somebody different." this word is spoken by my classmates almost every single week. "guys, we need to change. we need to be unified. we need to set an example..." blah blah blah. i would take it seriously, if the words they spoke really MEANT anything to them. i think all they want to do is sound poetic because as soon as theyre done with their little shpeal they're off making fun and putting others down. why should i change when you, our chaplain, goes around doing obscene gestures, speaks about doing stuff to girls, speaking nasty to people, why should i change? see the problem is anyone can SPEAK. it's the DOING that gets their panties in a bunch. he also says we have our own groups. let me explain: in our senior class of 33 there are three "groups": church kids, afro-americans, then my group:a mixture of black, korean, white. my group isn't really a group. we couldnt get into the church kids group so we formed our own. the afro-americans and we get along wonderfully! i have classes with the afro-american group and we laugh and play around and have a GRAND ol' time. i believe the only clique in our class are the church kids. wouldnt you agree? they are the only ones who are stubborn when it comes to unifying. but, oh, isn't that what they preach?
what saddens me is that i never thought the people i grew up with (i've been going to the same school since kindergarten), i never thought they would turn out so fake, so unwelcoming, so...disappointing. i guess i was blind to their real motives up until now. there definitely is a falling away from Jesus Christ and i'm really scared.
i want to care about all of them and want to miss them when i go off to college but i wont. and this saddens me because i've known some of them for SO LONG and to not even care if i see them again is heart-wrenching. but i'm only speaking the truth.
i wish there was a way to install a mini cam inside a pen or something and record people's conversations. what they say about people, situations, etc. then, one chapel service, show the video. expose their true colors for ONCE. i dont think they realize that everything they say, do, think is recorded by God but it would show them how mean and nasty they truly can be. is life center academy a christian school or not? are the students really "on fire" for God or is it just a cool phrase to put after your name on myspace as one of your interests? do you honestly take your relationship with Jesus Christ seriously, student body? it truly doesn't seem like it. so let's just stop the charade and open as a public school! it would be MUCH better being who you truly are than pretending to be something you are not.
wake up, class of '08 because it's a scary road you're trodding.
