It’s 3:40 a.m and I’ve been trying to sleep since 1:30. I have apparently failed miserably at the one thing I was sure I’m pretty darn good at.

Don’t worry, this isn’t going to be one of those posts where I’m frustrated about life and it’s the middle of the night and I write something slightly ambiguous but you can pretty much...

On Hell, Love, Pride, and A Few Things in between
A quick bit beforehand:
This entry is moreso directed towards my Christian reader(s). If you’re not a Christian, you are by all means welcome to read it, although I cannot say it is really written for you. Also, it’s a bit on the serious side so if you’re looking for something funny… well, you’re probably in the wrong place to begin with, but if you’re looking for something funnier, check back...

An Earnest Question my Brother Asked Me Today...

Truth. Bomb.
A Story from Senior Year...
My laptop is currently broken, so I’ve been using my old desktop to do my technological bidding. It’s slow, dusty, runs windows XP, and still has Maple Story installed on it.

It's Complicated with Facebook
So I spent a little over two months away from my fickle lover, Facebook.

(I try to avoid titles because we’re not really exclusive at all. It seems to me that Facebook is in an open relationship with pretty much everyone else on Earth, and I tend to dabble in other social networking sites every now and then. She also thinks I’m still not over myspace, but I totally am. Anyways,...

Yep, It’s one of those stories. (which, let’s face it, are much better).

And there’s this girl.

I don’t know her name, but she graduated from high school with my roommate.

From the Grammy's
So I’m not a Bruno Mars fan by any stretch, but this is awesome.

Hope you guys don’t mind the new layout, I figured it was time someone turned the lights on in here. (As if my tumblr was a room equipped with lamps and… electrical outlets)

If you’re reading this, it means one of two things.
You regularly check robertjewe.tumblr.com and therefore are a really loyal reader/stalker.

Encore
I definitely had a half finished entry… then messed up and hit “create post” instead of “preview”… and in my haste to not publish it… clicked “delete post” and now it’s gone.

Note to self: use word processor from now on.

[edit]
Yea right!

I don’t write this stuff down… (except that… I do.) I’m like Jay-Z.

So this is kinda weird… I know nobody really does the whole formspring thing anymore, but I kinda felt like writing and I couldn’t think of an angle, so I thought I’d brush the dust off this old thing. - - Speaking of dust… How weird is dust? Why does it just… collect in random spots after a long period of time? Why the heck is it gray?! (side note: why are there two spellings of grey?) -...
Couldn't think of one
Well hi there.
So I was tinkering and tumbling around tumblr… and I stumbled upon this cool new mass edit feature. It gives you this sweet layout of all your entries by month and lets you edit them en masse. Hence the name.

This is what my layout looked like at the beginning of my blog, January 2010.
Oh yea.

This is what it looked like during this past summer.

An Excerpt...
“When my brother and I were very small, there was a family from the church that acted sort of like grandparents to us. The family encouraged my parents to begin taking family vacations. My parents had very little time and even less money when we were small, but at the urging of that family, we began a tradition of family vacations. Like many pastors’ families, I think, they were...
Some thoughts
Hi guys!

For some of you, it’s dead week. (Holla APU!)

For some of you, it’s finals week.

For some of you, it’s just a normal week.

Regardless, I appreciate you taking the time to check out my tumblr/procrastinate!
I know you had a lot of other ways to avoid doing your homework, so really, thanks. It means a lot.

Musings on Midnight Munching
Crackers (and other crunchy foods in general) sound really loud in your mouth, but are much less audible to people around you.

This may seem really obvious, but don’t you think it’s kind of weird that the volume difference isn’t as great if you are say… humming? (the comparison here is between two sounds coming from your mouth while its closed, and the difference in...
More fun at the library
Two girls: “hi, can we reserve a study room for 8:30pm?”
me: “Unfortunately we only give those out on a first come, first serve basis. If you’d like one you can wait near the desk until 8:30, or you can come back at 8:30 and see if one is open then. If a room opens up before then though, I’ll have to give it to someone else if you’re not here.”

I like cartoons.
I think the girl from Tangled is really attractive.
Is that weird?

I’m normal, I promise.
Just Another Night on the Job
I just had a girl checking out books at the library. She came up and said “Hi, I was hoping to check out some books… this is my first time.”

I was about to say “Well, I’m glad your first time is with me.”

But then I realized that might be taken the wrong way.

So… I’m at the library writing my first formspring/tumblr entry of the new semester! *thunderous applause* So this question has been in my inbox for…. 6 whole months. …Yea, that’s how long you have to wait to have your questions answered by yours truly. But, as you all know, it’s totally worth it. p.s I currently have just 3 questions in my inbox so uh… if you guys could ask some questions,...

Ohhh… Heavy question I think I’m going to elect to skip the Sunday School answer of “Jesus died for me.” Not because it isn’t important, or that it doesn’t need to be said, but because I don’t think that was the intent of the question. I think it was more addressing the people in my life now. I’ve always sorta pondered this question myself… Would I personally give my life for one of my...

I know a lot of you have been patiently waiting to be affirmed.

Hopefully none of you were like… desperately relying on a speedy affirmation.

10 Weeks
Hello there!

Here’s my 10 week summer update!

quick review:
1. Get a job.
2. dunk.
3. Get ripped?
4. hang out with people.

Progress?

1. Still no job
-

I have officially abandoned the job search. Not because I have given up hope or have lost all confidence in myself, but because it’s not really feasible with the amount of time I have left.

When was the last time you went shopping?
This past Friday, actually. I stopped at the Cabazon outlets on the way out to Arizona. I bought these: http://www.csneaker.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Nike-Hyperize-TB-Three-Quarter-Men-Basketball-Shoe-2.jpg For those of you that have seen How to Train Your Dragon, I call them the Toothless Hyperizers.

What miracle has God done in your life?
Miracles. Proof that God exists, right? I mean, for there to be a supernatural entity, we must witness supernatural things. Then, once we witness such events, we can prove God exists. and everyone will be happy. hmm… forgive me, but I don’t think it works that way. Let me start by saying I fully believe in miracles. I don’t doubt that Jesus rose from the...

God and Turkey
So I was helping myself to leftover turkey last night and I was thinking:
How come we don’t eat turkey more often?

Personally, I think it’s delicious. You get huge white meat chunks/slices much larger than you would get from a chicken.

This is because turkeys are larger birds and consequentially have larger breasts.
