Who are you – Online?

By Josh Lama

Who/ What are you right now? Yes/ Right now?

Human?

A Kid?

An Adult?

Hobbit?

A 14 year old girl?

A 53 year old man?

Who/What are you online?

Should a flower be a flower?

Should a brick be a brick?

Should a human be a human?

Shouldn't that be for all cases,

even online?

Or are we so fed up of

Ourselves that

Being someone else seems the greater option.

How come, we live a double life?

Yours might not be as obvious:

Do you swear online?

Do you call someone online –

A Jackass

Gay

An n00b

That you wouldn't say in real life?

"It's amazing to have someone from

Australia and someone from South

America in the same chat room!"

Fr. Roderick. 2008.

It is amazing!

We are a worldwide comunity!

Why can't we make that?

"You know, what really bothers me about this...

...but the internet has made people so cynical,

and so unaccountable. And,

I actually sometimes detect a little glee

in some of

these people..."

Where are

you

going to be?

here here here

here here

"And I'm like, 'what kind of people are these?'

and 'do they have people they care about?'

Or are they literally

so

Self-centered

That they don't care about anyone but

Themselves?"

Scott Bourne. 2009.

See you in the New Year!!

“So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying
in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had
been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the
shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them
in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the
things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.”- Luke 2:16-20

Remeber that story I was going to write? well here's that first chapter...Enjoy.

Chapter 1
This story is about Rebecca. I don’t know where she lives, where she works, or what she likes for Christmas, but I can tell you these facts. She’s got a job, (good in this financial climate,) loves shopping, and loves consumerism. I also know she comes from a non-practicing Christian family. You know what? Let’s pay her a visit. Let’s see, three times I say.

Rebecca was just out of school (only a few days off) in which she was now at the local mall buying stuff for Christmas, and waiting for her job at the local clothes store. By the time she had bought all her presents for her family, and was quite tired. She quickly walked to the nearest MacDonald’s, where she waited as an old lady in a light blue jacket was slowly getting change for her meal. Of course she knew what she wanted, “A big Mac meal, medium, with Sprite instead of Coke.” One other person was wateing, and then it was Rebecca.

It was then her turn where she saw a guy around the same age as her behind the counter.
“How can I help you?” The guy asked.
“err.” Memory blank, great, I’ve never had this before. “A Big Mac meal, medium, with a Sprite instead of Coke.”
“Anything else?” the guy asked.
“Nah,” she now reading the nametag, “Luke.” Quickly mark grabbed her meal, and gave it to her, then he gave her the Sprite.
“Here you go.” Rebecca was expecting him to say next please, but she looked behind her shoulder to find no one was behind her. She quickly got to a table, and ate her burger. It was about 5 minutes later when Luke came over to her. “Well, I’m out of there. How are you?”
“Good...Thanks.” She said in a slow, confused voice. “Do you usually talk to strangers?”
“Yep.” Trying to not give away the surprise. “So, what are you got in there?” pointing to the bags.
“Oh, just some Christmas shopping.”
“Oh, sounds great!”
“How come I’ve never seen you before?” fired Rebecca.
“I live quite far away from my job, I’m leaving for a moment, and then I’m working again.”
“I’ve got a job. It’s downstairs.”
“That place...That clothes shop next to the cafe. I’ve seen you work there!”
“Great place to work isn’t it!”
“Yeah. So how are you getting ready for the Christmas season?”
“Mostly putting up the Christmas tree, getting all the decorations out, writing Christmas cards out, sending them to people, and then, oh, our family is having a big banquet, with chicken and turkey, and ham...”
“So with all of that, what does Christmas mean to you?”
“I...I” She paused for a moment. “I don’t know. I always thought of this as a time where we can get together.”
“Can’t you get together any other time?”
“I’d guess so.”
“Do you want to know what it really means?” She nodded.
“Okay, I’ll show you.” An awrkuid silence was with them both.
“Aren’t you going to show me now?”
“If I see you by the time you finish your job, you’ll know I’ll show you what Christmas really means.” Mark got up and left her.


Just before her job started, she first saw the nativity scene outside the shop. There was Baby Jesus, with Mary, Joseph, and three men giving the child expensive boxes. She remembered the story told by...well she couldn’t remember. “Three wise men came to see the Baby Jesus and to give him gifts, because he was so important...for some odd reason.”

She finished her job a 5 PM, where Luke was waiting. He quickly grabbed her. “It’ll happen at 12 AM Tonight. I shall give you more details then. See you.” Luke ran off. Rebecca wanted say something, buy Luke was too fast. She walked home. She said nothing to anyone.

She awoke that night to go to the toilet, just hearing the whisper coming from downstairs. She
walked down suspiciously. Then she recognised the voice. No, it’s Mark she thought to herself.

“Good...late night. Are you ready for the experience?”
“No.” She said in a scared like manner.
“When you will wake up you will be a lamb. It’ll be 2000 years ago. Good night.”
“But...” Rebecca went into a dreary like state. She collapsed on the floor and fell into a deep sleep.

She woke up again and heard an unfamiliar voice. “Get up! It’s been a long day for you.”
It’s all a dream. It’s all a dream. She kept telling herself that, and hopfully this will wake her up. Soon her reality was forming, and soon her eyes slowly opened.
Her eyes started to open when staring in her face was in fact a cow. “Come on...wake up! We don’t want the stableboy take you away!” The cow said. It’s all a bit surreal. She then heard voices, one of them a screaming lady....

To Be Continued on Saturday.

"Now Add them up and…
Put “I’ve seen [however many] out of 239 films” in the subject line and repost it on Facebook or your blog. And for that matter, leave a comment here on our website and let us know how many you’ve seen!
And sadly, I didn’t count some movies I started to watch but didn’t finish, or if I’ve only seen parts of a movie. And even more sadly, there are a LOT of movies on this list I should have walked out of."


That was epic.
So I've seen 27 out of 239 films. However I want to see another 19 films, so that would bring it up to 41 films.
See ya.

Hey Guys,

I'm much better.

If you haven't read the news, the NSW Department of Education and Training (DET) has not got the emails for all students. They have this already, but now it's on the Google servers instead the Microsoft servers (I think) Anyway, I think it's cool.

Oh, and I applied for a summer school, and they didn't accept me.

Now, to end on a + note, I'm thinking of telling you a story about Christmas, mainly revolving Jesus Christ Birth and the painting depicted in the Gospel of Matt and Luke in the bible. Thinking more along the lines of guy from 2008 is obsessed with the consumerism of Christmas, and is sent off to the first Christmas as a lamb and witnesses the story there.

Thoughts? Opinions? Comment!

Josh Lama's Blog for Advent!

And so we start off with this.
The inspiration for this was in fact a little video podcast called Grant's Advent Calender. Here's a promo.


And HI to everyone who came from watching that clip. Note, I'm saying in the clip, "(Big breath in and out, followed by a long pause.) 3 days, 8 hours...46 minutes... (Short pause) .... 24 seconds. " So that's where I got this inspiration.
Now the second thing I want to say is that I've got a YouTube account. you can find it @:
http://www.youtube.com/user/Joshlama
You can see such marvelous clips like...The Warriors (Music to an Imaginary Ballet) - Percy Granger.


It's really exiting.
Anyway, I hope tomorrow will be more eventful that this blog post.
See ya!

Yesterday I did another talk for our youth group. I've done previously two already. The first one was based on Jesus saying I am the way, and the truth, and the life, and that no one comes to the father except though me. This passage is more of a wake up call to the secular idea of Spirituality. (All religions all say the same thing etc.) The talk is on this blog.

The second one was based on Cain and Abel, in which is all about sin being apart of humanity, not just to say "It was from Adam and Eve!" (not to say that sin is alright, it's still disobeying God.) I've haven't posted that online because of the structure and how it was written. It wasn't my best talk.

And so last night. This time I did Saul's conversion (Saul who becomes Paul, not King Saul). you can find it here. As something a bit different I decided to give the talk as one of Saul's Henchmen. Since Saul's Henchmen aren't in the bible, I had to create a new character. This character is with Saul all the time before the conversion, and so is the typical hating Christian lets-get-rid-of-them Jew. And so, I acted my way as this character for the kids. This character later goes though the motions of the craziness of the events. Finally he becomes a Christan as well. The difficult part was infact the confidence to create a beleavable charater. I've never approached a talk this way.

But, it was a hit.

Alot of the kids enjoyed this new type of talk (storytelling), all of our talks before this have been the typical young teen talk. (except when our youth leader scared everyone with a knife doing an reanactment of Abraham and Issac.) It got the message out, which is important in any talk. but a lot of people (kids and adults) said that I could act! Whoa??? I don't have the confidence to act! ARRGGHH!!!!?!!!?!?!?

Again I won't post the talk up, however you can read the text here.

Berlioz on the left, me on the right.

Hopefully I'll be posting more now.

quick warning. in the middle Christ's name is used in vein. This is a secular film by the way.
What I find distrubing is that some companies do this. say that we are upholding God, but in there for the money. 1 Timothy 6 says,
3If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, 4he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions 5and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain.
Bible is so cool.
