so i spent another hour playing instead of doing reading for my other classes ... oops ... i built a real house, complete with a roof and a door. i have a furnace and a chest and my crafting table inside ... i figure out how to smelt wood to make charcoal, then i cooked pork i had killed (that made me sad ..) .. i gathered wool to make a bed (also sad to kill the sheep, i can relate to wendy's comment that its hard to kill your livestock, and mine were just wild ..) ... then i messed around with the furnace - my eyes got so big in anticipation as i waited for the flames to fill up the whole arrow and make something new -! i made several glass panes, which was awesome. the problem is that im lost now and cant get back to my house, which is making me really sad ... im really surprised by how enthralled ive become so quiclky, once i began being able to actually build things it got much more exciting. as i was wandering around in the dark and rain, all i thought to myself was 'i just want to go home ...'  it was a really odd and interesting moment to realize that by 'home' i mean a collection of stone blocks in a digital/virtual world ...
