Today was fairly productive. I did my classes and had my Korean lesson, and I got some time to myself, and I did my physics, and all that.

I told my Korean teacher about it, well, omitting several important details, but I got the point across. I was really depending on her trust when I did. She had written "God bless you" on the top of the homework she prepared. I am really glad to have such good friends.

My involvement with certain people has become a game of charades! and I am not particularly enjoying it, but I play along to be polite. After all, I am the guest in their story. I try to keep my chapters small, but meaningful. The party will be over very soon; not soon enough. "time to leave because the DJ's playing rhythm and blues"story of my life", however it ends, I think this is something we won't forget. To the hosts, thanks, (and I mean that in the most judgmental way possible). To my fellow constituents, you play so well; whenever our eyes meet I feel that mutual fear, love, anticipation, and trust. The kind of thing that holds your attention even after it disappears.

Analogies like that are fun, but the light-hearted overtone is just killing me. I hate having to paraphrase on my blog. Too many readers, too many thoughts crossing here, and I feel like I am unable to give a perfect picture of my point of view. My thoughts are too easily misinterpreted by a reader, just don't read too much into what I say, and you'l save us both some heartache.

Today I made great progress on my pattern for unicursal stars. Odd numbers all seem to follow a similar formula, which is oddly enough almost opposite my formula for even numbers (with the exception of even numbers divisible by 4, which I personally think all look stupid.). I haven't done much work with prime numbers, but 7 and 11 pointed stars seem to follow a pretty standard "odd-number" formula, and there aren't any even prime numbers.

Also, I read some of my old blogs last night. Sometimes it's good to do that to learn about one's self, I think. I was so angry with the church in the beginning of march, and I still am, but I wonder how I lost track of that fury. I really hate division in the church. I hate how we have so many churches, even churches of the same denomination, who won't work together. Why? Because of some insignificant detail in things as unbinding to your salvation as way they feel that they connect best with God in worship. Things which they would do best to learn from each other in anyway. Things which the entire church would benefit from learning to get along with and grow with. I've blogged about this before, and I'm not going to go into the detailed rant I went into before, but I can't stress enough the emotion that follows behind that word, "hate" when I say it in this context. Given the opportunity, I would gladly take several days of prayer and preparation for a presentation, and then offer it up to churches everywhere I could. The problem would be, though, that even then there would be people who pick out a small theological point of mine and throw out my whole argument on it's account. (hence the prayer I would put into it, and I mean LOTS of prayer. I wouldn't take on a problem this big without days or maybe even weeks of prayer and fasting for direction. Even prayer for whether I should take it on at all. If God backs the speech 100%, then the people who disagree are simply people who do not have ears to hear, right?)

Well, I have a physics test early tomorrow. Prayers PLEASE!
