I had to use up my 99 cent rental coupons before the end of this month. Just finished The Station Agent tonight. Excellent movie. One scene where the lady runs the guy off the road made me laugh until I almost teared up. Thanks to CC for always giving me great recommendations on books and…

What means repentance?

Man, I can’t believe it. I set my alarm for the afternoon instead of the morning. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before. So I ended up missing church today. Oh well. Got some much needed sleep. Got this from my devotions for today: Repentance should be radical and thorough, and the best repentance…

Do you know how it feels after you meet someone really famous? It’s a weird feeling. It’s even more bizarre when the person you’ve met is not really famous in that he or she is well-known to the general population, but famous only in my specific area of study. I finally got to meet Dr.…

Happy Birthdays to Kent and Jerry. I’ve always wanted to learn how to breakdance. You know those books in the Bible: Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, and Colossians? I think I’ve just found my new favorite way to remember them…(ok, this is only for those Toisan people out there)…GEP-C…pronounced…GEPP-SEE. Aren’t you proud to be Toisan? In golfing…

I went to see Matt’s dorm today at Cal. We talked about how liberal the school was, evidenced by his dorm which was co-ed. That means co-ed halls with girls rooms next to guys rooms, and where girls and guys share the bathrooms. It was weird to go into the bathrooms and see the first…

I’ve been missing out on the many uses of bounce. Well, that’s it. I’m done with classes for this semester. All I have to do now, is finish my work and turn it in. It’s a bit strange. It doesn’t even feel like the end of the school year. In high school, you have yearbooks…

Have a look, I finally finished another one of C.S. Lewis’ books. It’s been a long time since I first picked up the book. Minor distractions in life, such as school, always seem to keep me from what I like to do. Lewis is a great writer. As I was reading his book, I could…
