Just an update September 3, 2008

So, the newest thing I’ve discovered while at the “G” has been that I absolutely hate walking to class in the rain. And, I also hate waking up to standing water in my dorm room. Yep. That’s right. Standing water. You see, we have no A/C in our room, so we have fans and we keep our windows open 24/7. Well, last week during our torrential downpour that we had, water came through our window while sleeping thus waking up with wet feet in the morning.
But, I got over that.

I haven’t gotten over the workload. That’s going to take some getting used to. I really wanted to get involved with an all girls a capella christian group, but my seven classes just won’t allow that. GOOD NEWS THOUGH! I’ve started going to the intervarsity meetings, and they need worship leaders! We’ll see where that goes, but hopefully God will open this door for me. I miss being a part of a worship team so badly.

In short, other than all my classes and the work that goes along with them school is okay. My room isn’t a wreck yet. Partly because my roomie is a cleaning freak (I’m glad one of us is) and she’s been prone to clean my side of the room too! Score!

Okay, random tangent. In one of my emails I got from the Intervarsity minister he sent out a bible verse that is now hanging over my bed and I try and read it everyday. Here goes:

“Be cheerful no matter what, pray all the time, thank God no matter what happens. This is the way God wants you who belong to Christ Jesus to live.”
1 Thess 5:16-18 (the message)

LOVE that verse. But, I have to admit that the day I woke up to water on our floor and getting drenched outside, I was not practicing being “cheerful no matter what”. haha.

 

…Well, back to work.
