I love the smell of cancelled classes

Well, it's been a while since I've posted. I've been sort of busy. Mostly I'm just not in a mood to sit and write something. But I am now so here goes. Things are pretty usual. Classes are going well, not much to report on that score. I did have a class canceled today and I found out last night so I got to sleep in a little bit. Very nice. I actually have a class cancelled tomorrow as well, so I'm having a good week. :-) I'll be going to band practice for a bit tonight before heading to Frisbee. Man I cannot wait. I haven't played for several weeks and I'm really looking forward to playing. I'm gonna have to go shopping again tomorrow. I'm running out of food. So yeah it's gonna be fun shelling out again. Blah. Um, not much else to report. I went to the Kim's caregroup last night. It was ok. Ben and John go to that caregroup as well. I'm getting pretty good at getting around town. I actually learned a back way that avoids the main road in Indiana (Philadelphia, no less) . It's not really faster, but driving down that road is a bit risky because people never pay attention to when they open their doors into traffic. In my Bus. Calc. class we were talking about if you could get 1% of the sales of one NFL logoed teams merchandise, which five teams would you pick. So of course the Steelers were to first to go on the list, and the Giants, Cowboys and Patriots made it. I thought Eagles, as well as the Packers were good choices but no one agreed. So today the prof. brought in the actual data from the last two years. Steelers were frist, and guess who was second. Yep, them Eagles. The Giants were like 8th and the Packers were 6th. The Eagles were actually first the year before. I was rather proud. Anyways enough babbling from me.

The End of Week 2

So the end of the second week of classes has come to a close. So far so good. I did have a bit of fun this morning. I went to the Wallworks (no comments from you mom :-)) to watch the Steelers game last night. I got home and realized that I had totally forgotten about a paper due at class today. And it was the eight o'clock class so no chance for a break to write. I got home around midnight and a set the alarm for five. Needless to say I keep hitting the snooze button for about an hour. When I final got myself out bed I scrambled to get the paper written as quickly as possible. I managed to get it done in about fourty minutes. It was only a two page paper and it was talking about myself so I had a pretty easy time just coming up with random stuff to say. So it turned out all right in the end. I can't really think of anything else that happend that is interesting to say. I am looking foward immensly to sleeping in tomorrow. Oh hey, I don't know why but the comments was set to bloggers only for some reason. I fixed it so anyone can post now.

Post Class

So I've started class and have so far been to two days worth. So far I actually like the classes. It's really cool to be going to a college that I know people at. I've run into people from church everyday. We've actually had time to hang out and stuff. I really enjoy it. I've been pretty successful at finding classes as well. I did get stuck at one point but it turned out that I was right there all the time. My professors seem pretty good. And the class should be interesting except for Bus. Calc. and Music History. Those I think will be the two classes I won't enjoy much. I learned very quickly that if you get a good parking spot in the morning you do not give it up. The first day of class I got there pretty early and found a good spot. I had to back to back classes and then a five hour break. I made the mistake of going back to the Basslers. I was informed of some people hanging out and I left to go back to campus. I spent probably 45 minutes looking for a place to park. Lesson learned: Don't leave unless you have to. Anyways that's the story so far.

Nothing to Report

Well, not much has happened since my last update. I figured I better keep my one reader happy and post new stuff. Oh wait, I forgot, I got engaged! It's pretty sweet. I still haven't found a job, so prayer would be great. Um, I did do some work for Steve Murphy, who flips houses. I work on the house that they are renovating. Plus we got paid for travel. Other then that not much to speak of.







In case you were wondering/stupid, I was joking about being engaged.

The arrival

Well folks, I've made it to Indiana. I'm pretty much setup and good to go. The house is fantastic. I couldn't have found a better place. God is soo faithful. I'm about five to ten minutes from campus which is great. I took some pictures for you very own wish fulfillment. (Not really ;-)

This is the front door and the stairs up to my part of the house:

This is the hallway at the top of the stairs. Immediately to the left of the picture is my room. On the right is, grandson's play room, bathroom, and kitchenette, moving toward the couch:

And this is my room. Note the queen bed :-)
Anyways that's where I'm staying. The Basslers are really nice, and Mr. Bassler is a fan of Firefly! Woohoo!!

Leaving

Well guys and gals I've finally found a place to stay in Indiana. A family had been praying about it and they agreed to let me stay with them. Sweet! They're a couple that has had their kids move on. There's two upstairs rooms that they don't use except for when they are babysiting their grandchild who is 3. So basically I would have the upstairs to myself for the most part. The room is already furnished which is nice. There's actually a kichenette with counters, a small fridge and a mircowave so I could be fairly self-sufficient. I'm really excited because it was getting down to the wire there for a moment. We still have to work out the details because they went to the worship conference so until they get back we can't do anything. But it looks like maybe Tuesday or Wednesday I'll be moving out!

The Beginning of the New

Well, this is my new blog I created. As no one has seen it or knows about it I think it would be pointless to post a long message. However I will give some info as to why I started this blog. I mostly just wanted a way to keep my friends informed of what was happening in my life as I move away to school. So there you have it. Boring right? Ah who cares? It's as much for me as anyone else.
