As I prepared to move across the country (back in 2004), I decided to start a blog for family and friends to keep up with me. Now it's the place where I dump my brain - for good and for bad. And you get to participate in my mess!

An interesting comment...

So I was out with friends last night and one of the guys was teasing me that all I talk about is school. I never really thought about it before, but I guess, in general.... he's right. How sad!

So now I'm thinking... what is wrong with me? What makes me talk about school all the time? Maybe it's because I love it so much... or maybe it's because it's what I have in common with most people... or maybe it's because I'm lame...

So... I have to work on other conversation topics, since I can't seem to talk about anything else...

Other than that... I'm waiting for my bestest friend to call. We're gonna hang out today with her family who are in town. Not sure what the plan is... so it's just gonna be a spontaneous day!

Tomorrow is church and stuff there... and more studying (but I'm not supposed to talk about that!)

Time to go do something constructive instead of rambling here where no one reads....

The Summer Quarter begins...

So, after my roadtrip to Idaho (which was wonderful), I got back to town... sang at another event... relaxed for 2 days...

And started the Greek intensive class. 4 hours a day... 3 days a week... for 10 weeks. And I will have completed 12 units of Biblical Greek! Intensive... that's an understatement!! But I think it will be good. Already, I'm getting the hang of the alphabet and I know my vocab words already!

For now... I'm off to study some more.

I'm not sure about this blogging thing.... I don't think anyone reads it, so I don't know why I write...

The end of another quarter...

I'm still having a hard time believing it, but it's true - I've finished another quarter today. I turned in my last project this afternoon and realized that I've completed 3 of 12 quarters!! Of course, it might take me 14 quarters, but that's another story.

Tomorrow I'll go to graduation and watch several friends get their diplomas. I am excited and sad at the same time. Excited about what God is doing in their lives... and sad that they'll be moving on from here. I will miss these friends!

Ok - time for bed. I'll post again when I get home from the conference.

Good grief! I'm a bad blogger.

OK, so I don't seem to get to this more than once every five months or so. Maybe I'll get better about this soon. Who knows.

Life is good. Classes are over again, finals are now. In a few days I leave for a worship conference sponsored by my school and my program. I'm excited... and curious. It's in Idaho of all places. Never been there.... never really thought I'd go to Idaho... so I'm excited to see another area of the country. The couple that I've been connected with so I can stay with them seems really sweet! I'm looking forward to meeting them.

For now, I'm working on getting more in shape. I'm looking at bikes, trying to figure out which one to buy so I can start riding. This should be interesting, but at least it won't hurt my feet!! (Long story!)

I've been spending a ton of time with my friend Michelle! She's awesome and is like my long lost sister!! Here's her blog. I can't imagine not having her in my life - her friendship means so much to me!!

Other new friends have websites too: Chris and Adam and the guys from Dead West. There are other people in my life - but none of them have blogs.

For now, I'm going to bed. Next post hopefully sometime before November!!
