Nice huh? You like how I couldn't smile... oh well... still fun... well I am out..

Weekend Cliffnotes

Well what can I say about this weekend?? I mean what isn't there to like about weekends? So I will try to summarize a little of what I did this weekend...

Friday.. class.. until later in the afternoon... then me and my roomy had a few heated games of ping pong... After that watched a movie later that night and finished the night with a donut and hot chocolate from the famous Donkin' Donuts.. Can't beat it! Always good memories there.. Came back and hit the sack until saturday around noonish... needed a little extra sleep if you know what I mean!

Saturday.. woke up... ate a little lunch then hit up the basketball game at 3ish... which is always a blast... Gotta love 'em... There are great fun.. I got to see a bunch of people.. including Emily, Jamey, Maria, and some others as well.. After that I had the opportunity to just hang around.. talk and hang out... I mean hanging out never gets old with certain people and is always an adventure..... exploring uninhibited terrain not knowing what to expect!! Yeah I mean what can I say it was a great night.. and great fun:) Also right when I thought the night was over I had the opportunity for some floor bonding time.. Talking about the strangest things seem to bring you closer together.. ever noticed that... Late nights on O1 nothing like it...

Good Ole Sunday... Sabbath.. I mean I woke up and went to church at the Free Methodist.. then I was headed to lunch and ran into some people from my floor that were heading out to the Prison to do our prison ministry.. so I actually decided to go with them instead and skip lunch.. So I did that and it was well worth it?? I mean going to the prison just brings in a different perspective that you usually wouldn't think about? Then I came back ate some dinner.. took a little nap.. and well not much... more thanks to the wonderful reconfiguring of the phones.. lol.. but everything works out and tomorrow starts another week.. And along comes all of the wonderful homework and stress of another week... Goodbye weekend and come back soon!!! :)

Waiting Game...

Seemed like today has been one of those days where I have just been waiting? Woke up a little later than usual at about a little after ten... and then I got ready for the day and went to lunch... and came back for lunch.. I haven't yet been to a new class yet?? Isn't that kind of crazy? I just want to go and get them over with... I mean as I wait it just seems like it is dragging them out.. and giving me time to speculate at what they are or aren't going to be... I just want to go and get the low down on the classes.. :) Today is also Friday which doesn't help the matter.. cuz I also feel like I am waiting and waiting for the weekend too!! Not that I know what I am going to do this weekend by any means... but a weekend is just something that is desired and looked forward to you know?? Even if you do just bum around all weekend and watch movies!!! Can't believe that it is almost February!! Time is flying you know?? It is all a waiting game.. waiting for class.. then the next class.. waiting to do homework.. waiting to watch a movie or to hang out... But I particularly wait for the "limited" time where I can lose myself in the moment and not wait, not worry, not really even think.. just be! Well time for me to go and wait a little longer.. but I am sure that it will go by faster than anticipated... and definately won't be as bad as I think.. but weekend here I come!!! :)

Tiresome rest

Tonight I was able to have a little bit of free time and was able to take advatage of it and do something that I really enjoy... swim!! So I went to the pool.. the first time this year as a matter of fact!! Geez I cannot believe that... I really do like swimming and just being in water.. it is just such an indescribable weightless fluid feeling... Anyway I got there and thought I would just try and relax and such... well I got there tonight and decided that I was going to try and swim a few laps.. I started off doing them really fast and was like this isn't too bad... but I counted down and back as one lap.. and after about five I was dead tired.. so I made my goal of ten laps! Needless to say it was more than anticipated!

Besides swimming today I didn't do to much. I mean I woke up to go to my Physics class.. where I sat through lecture and took a quiz... then came back to good old Spring Arbor bought a book for one of my classes tomorrow and then worked from one to three and had orchestra this afternoon as well, five to six! Good old cello...

Well I guess with all of that said swim hard and sleep harder!! :) Night....

Serendipity

Serendipity - "the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for...." How often does this happen? I think that a lot of things that we cheerish and consider priceless and valuable come from this phenomenon of serendipity. How many friendships? or jobs? or memories? Or a number of other things come from serendipity? But even though I feel that serendipity is a fun word.. and has a cool meaning, I believe that God plays a huge role in this phenomenon and he really gets no credit for it in the definition!! Sometimes we may not be looking for certain things at that particular moment in time.. but God knows what he is doing and is puting those things in our life for a reason.. so even though there is this serendipity I still think there is an intentionality on God's part...

So I must confess I really just looked up this word because I saw it several times and I just recently saw it on a friends blog..(he knows who I am talking about) and I thought it was interesting so I wrote about it?? So randomness.. but oh well gotta keep you guessing.....

New Day...

The sun has set on our this semester and J-term and is about to RISE on a new semester over the snow covered ground. Spring semester starts.. tomorrow... A new begins and I am not entirely sure that I am excited to go back and start all of my classes again.. but it is inevitable.. but it was fun while it lasted!! :) However I am excited to see what God has in store next for me and this new semester!!

Isn't God great? How can you look at this photograph and not see that? I wish that I could say that I took this picture but I did not.. but maybe someday.. So tomorrow starts the spring semester.. but there is snow on the ground and it is about zero degrees... how does that work? I guess spring is on its way.. but in the meantime it is bitter out! So happy new semester to all.. :)

Power Thoughts for the Day!!

I should really try writing something in here before the next day starts.. you know? Well I have done it again stayed up late doing a combination of things that include homework and watching a movie. What am I thinking?

Well either way lets get down to buisness so I can catch some shut eye! :) You know what gives human that feeling of being satisfied and complete? That sense of belonging and of everything being wonderful and perfect? Is it subjective? I tell you what I think it is different for different people... but Today was a marvelous day.. things just seemed to go well for me... I went to class.. did some homework and just got hang out.. But what makes a day so unique and fantastic? For me sometimes you just have those moments or days where everything just seems to fall into place.. you have a good time... and you get to that point where all your problems, worries, and any other responsibilities dissolve into nothingness and you can truly enjoy yourself! You get to see a sneak preview of what you were made for, understand who you are, and have some good clean fun... I can only wait to see what magnificent and amazing things God has planned for me..

Right now however I know that part of my design is to sleep... some people maybe better at it or need more of it... but right now I am feeling it and I definately hear it calling me... so I guess that I wil give into my purpose and catch some shut eye!

Monday Funness..

Why do I stay up so late??? I mean I am writing something for Monday at one in the morning on Tuesday?? Is there a reason I do this? And I even have a class in the morning... Today was a great day today though.. My buddy Sleazy came and visited me and it was great to get to see him and get updated on stuff.. but I definately haven't forgot about Buddy K either..

Today just seemed wonderful cause everyone seemed to be in good moods... do you ever realize how that changes you?? I mean if all the people you interact with are positive or if you are just having a good day, have you ever noticed that it makes you in a better mood... I think that is cool... Yeah I mean today was one of those days you can just reflect on and just smile! :)

And at this point I think that my brain has begun to shut down... And I still need to do some physics yet tomorrow and I was suppose to get it done tonight... Geez... but I am soo tired.. I hope that I can get it done tomorrow early after I get back from physics. Why do humans procrastinate? I mean what does it accomplish by putting things off.. I mean a few minutes of freedom?? But is it actually freedom.. cuz I mean then later you just have to go and do it.. binding you know?? Well I look forward to what Tuesday has for me.. Should be good.. :)

Physics fun and more..

Well I felt like I need to get a few more entries up just cuz it looks kind of silly with only one.. so I decided to write a little more..

So went to church today and then I have not been up to much of anything... I had to go over and do some physics homework today... so I went to the library and sat in the dark while I crunched numbers and broke a mental sweat dealing with frequency, tension, and waves among other physics concepts... Why do they leave the lights off in the library? Doesn't make sense and it sure isn't good for your eyes.. at least my mom always told me that... Even though it may not sound like I had fun doing phyics... I do not hate it... I mean who likes doing homework?? Besides I mean like someone told me, "Physics will help me be a better dentist someday!" Thanks Vera... :)

Have you ever been doing something, but wished that you were somewhere else doing something else instead?? Or maybe just thinking about something else? Well either way I got through all of the distractions of other thoughts and day-dreams and successfully completed the needed physics homework for the night. Now I can do one of my favorite things to do... "think" or just be.. and let my mind wonder and see where that takes me?? However sometimes I may have a "vague" idea or control of where my mind goes.. but I like it, so you do not hear me complaining... Of to ponder but back before long maybe??

Complicated Understandings...

Why do sometimes things feel so subjective or circumstantial? I mean sometimes I feel like things in my life are complicated and sometimes I do not have any idea on what to do about it? I find it comforting to know that God is taking care of me and knows what he is doing... But what am I suppose to do? God is awesome and I know that he will take care of me and give me the best because that is what he wants for me! My "pa" has been in and out of the hospital over these last couple weeks and I ask myself... what? or why? But in all honesty it is hard for me to answer these questions... I am here in Spring Arbor while my pa is in the hospital... I pray for him and think about him constantly.. but does God not know what He is doing? Of course He does.. and what is His reasoning?? I have no idea... but I don't question that either. I trust in God to do what is His will... Sickness, relationships, and more... God can and will take care of it.. Then I wonder how much of what he does are we suppose to understand? I mean we are only human and can only understand what our human existence will allow us to. But there is no simple equation or theory on knowing when to do what? And if there was would there be any fun in living what we call life? I don't know? And I can't comprehend many of the ideas that are arroused in my mind from just thinking of this?? So I don't really know what to say.. still new to me? Try again a little later maybe?
