Wednesday

So today was pretty good.  Found out I got 88% on my test, instead of 87%.  They changed the grading since everyone did so bad, so it brought everyone's grade up.  Especially for those who didn't do so well...  Anyway, I worked on the Sabbath School for this Sabbath for awhile this morning.  And then this afternoon I did a whole bunch of door-to-door work.  So that was good.  Then I met with the pastor for awhile this evening, then worked on topics for the SS class, then ate supper and had a Bible study with Brian during prayer meeting.  Then after getting back to my room, Seth, Eric, Tyler and I all watched Toy Story 3.  I think it's my favorite one yet. :)  I had seen half of it last semester, but this time I saw the whole thing and really enjoyed it.

But anyway, I'm off to bed now.  Goodnight! :)

What a day!

What a day it's been!  I have run the whole gammit of emotions, from really depressed to ecstatic!  The first good thing that happened was that I finally got the results back from the Hebrew test.  I got 87%!!!!  I was so happy!  I was hoping that I might get a C, but a B+???  God is so good!

This afternoon I did homework with Kayla, played soccer for awhile, and went on outreach.  And I had the most amazing experience!  In the hour and a half I was out, I got 3 Bible studies!  That is so exciting.  You can check my other blog if you want to hear more about it. :)

Anyway, I am now off to bed.  Goodnight! :)

Monday night

So today went pretty well.  Sorta...  Hebrew class at 8:00.  Then I worked on homework until class at 11:00 and 12:00.  This afternoon I worked on homework, took Seth and Eric to the mall to pick up some gear that Seth had ordered for kayaking, then this evening I did some outreach.  This was one of those nights that I was wishing I had a different job, but oh well.  I survived.

Anyway, then I went to the kayaking roll session with Seth and Eric for awhile.  I can't get the kayak to roll over for the life of me, but hopefully I'll get it someday...  And now I'm off to bed.  Goodnight!

Weekend

So I had an amazing weekend!  We had a meeting Friday night, then 4 meetings on Sabbath.  Anyway, we got up there in time for some supper on Friday, had our meeting where Dr. Tryon gave us sort of a preview and introduction to the weekend and started telling us a continued story about a man in the Salvation Army.  We then played music and games and stuff until lights out at 10:15.  There were 16 of us guys stuck in the living room and the 4 girls were on the loft above us.  So it was lots of fun.  It reminded me of a bunch of 12-year-olds on a church campout or something. =P  But it was lots of fun.  Sabbath we had a wonderful breakfast (all the meals were amazing!), then a meeting for Sabbath School where we broke into small groups and mapped out the life of a Bible character for 45 minutes.  Then for church we took a whole bunch of little sticky notes and spent an hour and a half by ourselves writing down important events from our lives.  After lunch, some of us went on a hike to find a waterfall.  It was so much fun!  Even when it started pouring down rain before we started back towards the cabin. =P

After the hike, we had our next meeting where we made sense of all of our sticky notes and organized them on pieces of paper.  After that, we had supper.  Pizza and root beer floats. :)  And then we had our final meeting where we finished the story and wrapped up the whole weekend.  Then we packed and left somewhat earlier than we were planning, due to the fog and rain.

Today I actually got quite a bit done!  I got up by 8:00 and worked on homework for awhile until I left for outreach before 1:00.  I did 5 hours of work and got 3 Bible studies scheduled for next week! :)  I am so happy about that!

Then we had a Super Bowl Party at Heldzingers' house.  The game was actually pretty good!  I was so hoping the Patriots would win, but with 30 seconds left on the clock, they dropped the ball 3 times and sealed their fate. :(  Pretty sad.  Anyway, we had lots of fun.  And we watched a Bill Cosbey Show during half time. :)

But now I am back in my room and getting ready for bed.  So goodnight!

Retreat

Just as a heads up, I'm going on a retreat with the Intro to Ministry class from this afternoon through tomorrow night.  So my computer will be left here and I will shut my phone off as soon as I get there, so my next blog post will be Sunday night.  Have a great weekend! :)

Thursday

Tomorrow is my first Hebrew test of the semester!  I'm really nervous, but we'll see how it goes...  Yeah, and there's homework due tomorrow as well.  But I'm nearly done with that...  I'll finish it in the morning. So today went pretty well.  Lots of schoolwork and study.  But the sun was out and it was warm!  That was so nice. :)  Kayla and I were studying Hebrew outside for awhile.  Then I worked on Hebrew homework, then I played racquet ball with Sarah Doe, Seth, and one of her friends, Amy.  So that got my exercise in for the day. :)  But now I am off to bed.  Goodnight!

February One

Today was pretty good after I finished the Vocab quiz in Hebrew.  I am number one in the class currently!!! :)  Anyway, this afternoon I went visiting with Joe.  That was nice.  Then there was supper and prayer meeting.  And then the fun part!  It was LisaMarie's birthday, so we kidnapped her after prayer meeting, put a pillowcase over her head, locked her arms in handcuffs, and took her home where a whole bunch of us were waiting and we had a party. :)  Oh yeah, the kidnappers were all in black with black face masks and everything. :)  But that was a lot of fun.  But now I am off to sleep!  Goodnight! :)
