No Iced Tea For You!

     I am doing really bad at keeping up with this blog. So much has been happening here at Word of Life! Last week we finished Genesis with Dr. Whitcomb and took his exam the following Tuesday. 50 true and false questions...... I almost punched the guy who sits next to me in the face. The exam was HARD. I second guessed myself on every question. At least it's over. You'd think that after studying Genesis for over a year in Sunday School I'd have somewhat of an advantage. I got a 90, which seems really good, but according to WOLBI grading my effort equals a B+. Lame.
     After the exam I had lunch, then practice until 3. I think we are really improving. The songs are all well known, but altered with gospel flare. It's been really good for me. My range is being expanded as well as my breath control being challenged. I also love everyone in the group. They're all a lot of fun and extremely personable.
     I had work on Tuesday evening. It was unusually busy and we were out of EVERYTHING. Someone ordered a pizza and we didn't have any sauce, the cheese for our burgers was completely frozen, and the cups for coffee and tea were mysteriously "gone". At least we got out earlier than usual. After work I was thirsty so I decided to buy a drink. It was late, so trying to be good I decided on iced tea instead of soda, which is in a separate machine. Now, this machine is different because the soda comes out the side and not the bottom. There is a pole with a cup holder that catches the drink, which avoids the bottle getting shook up, slides the drink across and then drops it in the side. Well, I put my money in and didn't notice that there was another drink that had fallen to the bottom of the machine. Instead of my drink falling into the side slot it plummeted to the bottom. No drink for me.
     I spent most of yesterday sleeping and finishing up my maps for Bible Survey. Most of you know how much I hate drawing..... It was not a fun assignment. At least they are done now and I can focus on other homework that is being neglected, like reading my Hebrews book.
     Well, I have practice in an hour so I think I am going to go and eat lunch. Then after practice it's Walmart time!!!!!!! Yea for having supplies again! Enjoy the rest of your day everyone!

Singing and Snuffles

     And the cold season has officially begun. All of my roommates have been sick for about a week and now it's my turn. Blah! I would love to not go through another box of tissues today.
     It's been a nice week here at WOLBI. The weather has finally gotten better and we haven't had rain in a few days! The trees and lake look especially beautiful today. I was tempted to go and sit outside on a blanket, but the cold probably wouldn't help me very much.
     In other news, I made it into a student run gospel choir called Our Declaration. There are 11 of us. We do a lot of traveling during the school year to different churches around New England. We're hoping to sing at a church in Albany in a few weeks. We just have to keep practicing and taking care of ourselves. About four of us in the group are sick. But, I'm looking forward to an awesome year together.
     I failed a quiz on Flag Football this week.... I hate sports so much. The good news is I have a GPA if 3.6 so it didn't affect my grade very much.
     Classes have been going pretty well. We finished Personal Evangelism with Larry Moyer last week. Now I have an exam on Genesis Chapters 1-11 on Tuesday. Dr. Whitcomb taught the class. He is a very intelligent speaker, but his voice in a bit too soothing. He makes you drowsy!
     I think I am going to go and make some tea and go back to bed. I have work tonight so I'm going to be up late. Lame. I love and miss you all!!!!!!!

    

*Insert Creative Title Here*

     D points are probably the dumbest things ever created. They stink. Yesterday I was extremely tired after class so I decided to take a nap. I slept from 2-4 then woke up and read for Personal Evangelism. Well, I realized that I had missed my gym class. I have gym on Fridays for an hour in the Field House. Apparently I not only have to make up the class, but I have 5 D points. That means I have to work 2 extra hours, which is ridiculous. I'm planning on going to the Ministry Department to try and talk myself out of it. Wish me luck......
     Today has been pretty nice. Last night I worked until 11 so I came up and went right to bed. I woke up around 10 and then went to do laundry with my friend Sarah. I was in the same room as her this summer at the Inn. While our clothes were washing we ate lunch and then went back to put them in the dryer. In the meantime I went for a run and tidied up our closet. Then I went back to grab my clothes and now I am attempting to set up my printer. I feel like a call to the Boyden's is inevitable..... Why couldn't I have been good with technology?
     Enjoy the rest of your day everyone!
