But here's my virtual smile for y'all. :)

I'm smiling in front of my PC screen

Grace said...

I've smiled...when I remembered to...I'm smiling now :)

Justin said...

Here are the name ideas:

- "Guys and Girls Standing Up for Jesus"
- "The Blog of Serious Life Questions"

Justin said...

Princess Samantha said...

THAT'S IT??? YEAH??

LOL

Grace said...

Cool!

Justin said...

ok I need to get my scrap of paper that I wrote some ideas on

Justin said...

hold on a sec

Princess Samantha said...

I was also thinking about basing the name off a song, perhaps a song relating to our mission.

Grace said...

Do you have a song in mind?

Princess Samantha said...

Not really...

Princess Samantha said...

I'm looking at my iTunes to get ideas. Do you have any songs?

Justin said...

Alexithymia: The Blog


now there's a name

Grace said...

Umm...I dunno'. Have u heard that song "I will not be moved" by Nataline Grant?

Grace said...

good name justin :P

Justin said...

hmm no I haven't heard that song

Princess Samantha said...

I'm listening to it right now. Good song. It goes well with the "standing up for Jesus" theme.

Hmm..."Alexithymia: The Blog". Wow, that doesn't sound bad either, since the chorus of the song goes "There's more to living than being a live."

There's also "Supersonic" by Family Force 5.

Grace said...

ok, have y'all ever heard that saying "See you at the pole" ?

Princess Samantha said...

Oh yeah!

Justin said...

Seeking Wisdom: The Blog

Princess Samantha said...

I like the "The Blog" thing. I'm writing down all y'all's ideas.

Princess Samantha said...

What about...

"The Great Rebellion"

Like, the great rebellion against the world.

Grace said...

awesome!
i'm listening to alexithymia right now. : )

Justin said...

hmm sounds pretty good

Princess Samantha said...

Have you heard or sung at church "The Time Has Come" by Hillsong United? I think the message really ties in with the blog.

Here are the lyrics:

Found love beyond all reason
You gave Your life Your all for me
And called me Yours forever
Caught in the mercy fallout
I found hope found life
Found all I need
You're all I need

The time has come
To stand for all we believe in
So I for one am gonna
Give my praise to You

Today today it's all or nothing
All they way
The praise goes out to You
Yeah all the praise goes out to You
Today today I live for one thing
To give You praise
In everything I do
Yeah all the praise goes out to You

All we are is Yours
And all we're living for
Is all You are
Is all that You are Lord

Grace said...

I've never heard it, but I like the lyrics.

"The Time has come to stand up"
??

Grace said...

hmmm...now that i think about it...

Princess Samantha said...

Grace, what were you thinking about with "see you at the pole"?

Grace said...

I'm not entirely sure, I just like the idea around meeting each other at "the pole" to pray and have fellowship. Well, maybe this blog could be like the pole.

Justin said...

so how would we name our blog according to that song?

Princess Samantha said...

What song?

Justin said...

the one before see you at the pole

Princess Samantha said...

You mean "The Time Has Come"?

Do you like it though?

Justin said...

Thats what Proverbs has pretty much been about so far.

Grace said...

Confusion...

Princess Samantha said...

Confusion...

Grace said...

Ya, ur right. Speaking of which, what are we going to read next?

Grace said...

I mean, us writing different things 2 late or 2 early and it making it sound strange. Confusion.

Princess Samantha said...

I'm not sure yet. We'll figure it out later.

Haha...Grace, I got your email. :D

Princess Samantha said...

Oh, I see what you mean, Grace. Why don't we "quote" to help avoid confusion?

Grace said...

Justin said...

well should we vote?

Princess Samantha said...

Yes, let's vote.

Grace said...

Princess Samantha said...

Okay.

Grace, favorite names

Justin, favorite names

Samantha, favorite names

Grace said...

Princess Samantha said...

-The Time Has Come to Stand Up

Justin said...

The Great Rebellion
Alexithymia (did i spell it right?)

-Alexithymia: The Blog
-The Great Rebellion

Justin said...

oh hehe forget what I just said

Grace said...

k sorry, lemmee catch up

Alexithymia: The Blog
The Pole

Princess Samantha said...

Okay. Can I be honest?

Justin said...

sure thing

Grace said...

no you can't. jk

Grace said...

be honest

Justin said...

wow 100 comments

Grace said...

102 now

Justin said...

Samantha?

Justin said...

uh oh, who's still here?

Grace said...

I have to go for a little while. My internet is going to be shut down, really sorry guys. Txt mE!

Justin said...

kk, Samantha you still here?

Princess Samantha said...

Grace! You took the 100 comment! Oh, well, I snoozed. I loozed. Or lost, rather.

Okay. Here is what I think about Alexithymia: The Blog. Let me make it clear...I do like the name. The only problem is that the term "Alexithymia" according to Wikipedia means "to describe a state of deficiency in understanding, processing, or describing emotions." Yes, the guys from Anberlin are Christians so this makes the song acceptable, but the song has a serious, for lack of better words "darker" message that focuses on a problem (like bad communication), and it just says that "there's more to living than being alive," meaning there's hope that's obviously found in Jesus.

So I hope that made sense. I still like the name, but I was hoping we can derive our blog name from something more positive.

Grace said...

ok i'm gonna continue typing till its shut off. my dad is trying to fix the internet and the only way to do that is to shut down all internet access.

Grace said...

So...The pole?

Justin said...

hmm yes your right, I haven't heard the song. =P

Princess Samantha said...

Sorry, I disappeared there.

Justin said...

lol The Pole sounds good, any ideas Samantha?

Princess Samantha said...

Or we can do "The Time Has Come." Grace is having computer problems; I'm texting her now.

Grace said...

We're glad to have you back!!!

Princess Samantha said...

Um...do you feel bad if people pick your own idea?

Grace said...

no,i'm still here. i just don't know for how long...

Princess Samantha said...

That's okay

Grace said...

: D

Justin said...

hey guys I gtg, need too be in bed soon, you have my e-mail roght?

Princess Samantha said...

Yeah, we can just continue this tomorrow.

Grace said...

What time?

Princess Samantha said...

Best for me is between 10am-Noon.

Grace said...

or do you wanna just email through it?

Princess Samantha said...

Yeah, we can just email. Does everyone have each other's email?

Justin said...

hmmm, sounds good

Justin said...
