While I'm sure many if not most of you folks will laugh at this, I've been tormented by horrid feelings of guilt and doubt. Having read hyper-fundamentalist sites (such as the Way of Life website maintained by David Cloud or Rick Miesel's Biblical Discernment Ministry), I've had feelings of being insufficiently biblical in regards to areas such as secondary separationism or even for not being King James Version-only in regards to Bible reading. I know they are absurd and can formulate counterarguments in my mind, except that there's a nagging voice in me that asks me whether these counterarguments are simply the result of my stubborness.

Wow, that's just two counties away from my birthplace!

Were you born in Des Moines?

Congratulations!

Brandeis University. Just moved in.

Are you going to remain D-CA or become D-MA?

That reminds me.

There is real people there? I was in Waltham last week and it seemed to be only hotels and stores. Not a real city.

The place around the university definitely is more of a quiet residential area than just hotels and stores.

So anyways the party wasn't that interesting since I neither drank nor danced. It does, I feel, speak to the character and nature of my university that even at this party much of the conversation concerned academic advice and classes.

I'll add in some word regarding a girl I have had pleasure making the acquaintance of in the past few days. She has an excellent personality combining both wit and kindness along with high intelligence and fine features. Wish me luck folks.

The girl I've liked for four years broke up with her boyfriend a month ago. We had a heart-to-heart last night, and she feels the same about me as I feel about her. Except I'm going to school in Kingston, Ontario and she's going to school in Cincinnati.

And there's the whole "me also liking dudes" thing, which she doesn't know about.

Gah. Confusing times.

Well at least your feelings are mutual. I wish you the best of luck, Hagrid.

So apparently my person of interest's political views are the following:
-Indifferent/libertarian on social issues (she is bicurious and atheist after all)
-Economically pro free market/right-wing-at the least she is opposed to the ACA due to lack of proper compensation to doctors or something
-"Law and order": in favour of police militarization and crackdown on Ferguson protestors
-Hawkish on foreign policy, strongly supports Israel on Palestine
-Pro-surveillance
-Pro Bloomberg's soda tax and similar neo-blue laws

TL;DR her views are pretty much anathema to the Atlas Consensus (tm)

The girl I like is in one of my classes again. I'm not going to get into a full-blown song and dance about her but I've caught feels and I'm fine with it.

Been there. You have my sympathy and best wishes.
