Something about spaghetti

So i often take my lunch to work (almost everyday) and for the second time, in a couple of years, i brought spaghetti sauce instead of the chili i thought i was bringing. The guys at the dinner table had a good laugh, as did i, but i should probably look into a sensible labeling system to ensure no future awkward meals...

So here's some stuff for today.

E3 is going on over the next few days, and Microsoft announced some pretty cool stuff for the Xbox360 - and a couple PC things (fallout 3 whoohoo!). Another big announcement is that Final Fantasy XIII (13) is going to be on the xbox. A trailer was released, and i've included it for your viewing pleasure.


Final Fantasy 13


I've also included another trailer (on youtube) that shows some different gameplay footage.



Also, this weekend past, 3 guys from Vancouver, BC finished off a 2 week long trek across Canada here in St. John's. They hung out with us, and generally had a good time. You can check out their mission on their blog here. Funny enough, they go to a church called Victory Christian Centre (that's the name of my church as well) and one of the guys went to Hillsong with one of our friends here in St. John's (small world). Good times were had, and i think they got some cool footage for their media guys to use in their pastors series throughout the summer.

And for my final bit for the day, in celebration of 'Brangelinas' new twins i give you the trailer for Brad Pitts next movie (Actually looks like it could be funny)...

Post #4

Not sure what to put here now, just want to update my blog a bit. I'm not sure if anyone reads (or has read) anything i've put up here, but it lets me write a bit. My week of life as a newly-single man ends tomorrow when my wife returns from Florida (mickey mouse and all that fun stuff) - which i'm rather happy about actually. Single life is not all it's cracked up to be. I'll admit that i miss my wife considerably, but i should seeing as she's now 50% of me (not literally but you get the idea).

I just updated my Facebook account with some new pictures and stuff. It's pretty cool running into old friends. I used to live in ontario and i've found my first girlfriend (grades 1 and 2 - long term, it was serious) and my best friend from Borden... pretty bizarre, but cool.

Had church today. Went really well. We had a 15min jam session where everyone was just flowing together, very cool. I really love my church (Victory Christian Centre - no website, but FYI). Also, tonight we had our small groups with the teen guys. Went pretty well i think, talked about some relevent (i think) issues and got some feedback and interaction. Then we played ping pong, PS2 and nintendo 64 (it's a bunch of geeky guys, what can you do). It's tough to try and be real with a bunch of 16 -18 year old church-ee type guys and try to teach them about life and God and stuff. Hopefully it's getting through, i'd loved to have had something like this when i was their age.

Other than that there's not much else to say. Time for Sam to hit the sack, enjoy the last night of full bed sleep and get up tomorrow to start the week!

Peace out
