Quote, design, etc.
As you may have noticed, I've got a new blog design. I would have kept the old one for longer but it's just not Christmas anymore.
Anyway, another teacher didn't show up for class so I went home again. I'm trying to do some homework so I'll be free tonight. :D
So the Bible camp / conference? Hm, it was great. The topic was
Experiencing God, and we all learned more about what it really means to follow Jesus. I particularly learned that I should stop looking at my insecurities and just fix my eyes on God.
By the way, I found a sad quote yesterday.
If all Christians acted like Christ, the whole world would be Christian. - Mahatma Gandhi
It's quite true, actually. I heard a story about how Mahatma Gandhi was attracted to the idea of Christianity. He went to a church, but was made to sit on the floor in front of the pulpit because he was poor. The rich, on the other hand, got the best seats. This turned him off since it meant there was still inequality in the church. And so he never became a Christian.
I know a few people who won't accept Christ because they act better than some Christians do.
It would be cool if Christians acted their name. I hope
I could act my name.

So I'm Daisy (or fedora_girl)
I'm (naturally) wearing the fedora.
I'm a Chemical Engineering student --- getting that degree sometimes involves putting my brain through a strainer --- who also enjoys living life and eating like every meal is my last meal.
I'm a child of God, and that gives my life meaning.
I adore my family and friends. We spend a lot of time together, so they occasionally come up in my posts.
I also take pictures, do computer work, and scribble. I use Adobe Photoshop for long periods of time, and design blogs. I submit most of my good photos and drawings in
my DeviantArt account, and my blog designs in
my Blogskins account.
I read a lot. My favorite books of all time are the Holy Bible,
Pride & Prejudice,
The Scarlet Pimpernel,
The Boy Who Could Fly,
The Nanny, &
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.
I don't like watching TV because I feel it gives me wrong ideas about the real world. I'm partial to period dramas, musicals and other good movies though. A few that I like are
Pride & Prejudice (2005 version),
North & South (a BBC TV drama),
Facing The Giants,
Sixteen Candles, &
Singin' In The Rain.
I love music; I like a lot of genres. I'm getting into country music and some good rock at the moment. I also adore movie soundtracks and songs that are more than 60 years old.
And about this blog...
It's pretty much a personal thing. It's filled to the brim with my escapades, thoughts, stuff I make, and just plain observations. Random, really.
Hope you enjoy it!
