My Bible and me... ;-)

Hey there!!!
Oh lots of stuff to talk about today...Not really ;-) I had a good day at school and I'm incredibly tired because we had another 2 hour Basketball practice. Oh yeah.
Well, I mentioned it before, right? I got a Bible for Christmas. A nice, big, new ,(green haha), study Bible. And, well I started reading where you usually start reading a book- on the very first page of course... hm, well, the next day I saw a quote somewhere so I went straight to that book where the quote was from and started reading there, I read quite a few pages...
afterwards I figured, actually I should really start at the beginning...
But then I felt soooooo bad and homesick on the next day and I thought "well then, let's look for some "hope" stuff"...There's a nice couple of pages in the back where you can look that up. So I did that. And it helped a lot ;-)
well, again I thought shouldn't I actually start on the first page???
But then we talked about that one book on Sunday in Sunday school -ecclesiastes- and that just really really made sense to me and I liked it. So when I came home , I opened my bible and started reading ecclesiastes (or however you spell that...) instead of starting again-
from the beginning ;-) haha. Well, that's how I read it now I guess...You guys think that's a bad idea??? ;-) I don't think so.
Another weird thing about "me and my Bible"... I'm reading a really really really good book right now (besides the Bible ;-) and it's actually 3 books in a row, I'm almost done with the second one... So I always have to decide when I go to bed (cause that's when I usually find the time to read ;-) : read a couple of pages in the Bible-or read that other awesome book...Tough decision ! haha. well, it's kinda strange: so I'm sitting there, on my bed, ready to read, loking at these two books in front of me and I can't decide ;-) So I always feel more like finding out what happens next in the trilogy books... but I grab the Bible because I remember how good I felt the other day when I read it. happens again: can't decide-choose Bible- feel good. cool how that works. I never thought such an old book could give me so much good advice and stuff !!!
yeah, that's my little Bible story for today. guess what I'll do now? right, I'll go upstairs, sit on my bed, look at the books and try to decide!haha
love ya, good night
