…a chance to be thankful?
It’s a rainy and cold day on Lookout. I was thinking about it this morning… how easy it is to be pessimistic or down when it’s raining outside. Why is that? I asked one of my friends that this morning on the way to Rock Creek Fellowship. Why is it that whenever it’s raining or [...]

Unexpected Happenstances …and Bolivia
After chapel this morning, I headed to the Great Hall for lunch. I usually try to catch some friends to sit with while i’m there… but on the way up, I guess I came out ahead of everyone because I didn’t see or find any of the people I usually eat with. I walked into [...]

Perspective
One of the things I love the most about photography is capturing a new perspective of something. Life is full of new things to be discovered… life is unique. I don’t just take pictures. Ok fine.. I do. But capturing life in a new light, a new perspective is one of the things I enjoy to [...]

Partakers of Grace
I’m now midway through the second week of classes. Class assignments and reading are starting to pick up. I read part of Plato’s Republic for Philosophy last night… it’s crazy how brilliant that guy’s mind was. I can’t even begin to dream of thinking or having knowledge like that guy. Crazyness! But classes are going [...]

Colder days
It’s getting cold on the mountain. It was around 27 degrees today - goodness, how I love cold weather… all the more reason to study in bed or in a heep of warm blankets. My roommate brought back an Alpaco skin from Peru - oh man, that’s something that is softer and warmer than you’ll [...]

A continutation… The Five Points
So I started writing some about my hall, The Five Points, on my last post… but I decided to actually grab the opportunity to spend time with my roommates and hallmates while they praised and worshiped, instead of writing. So I just wanted to kind of continue on from where I left off.
Each building at [...]

Five Points
It’s a Friday night… i’m sitting here writing to the sound of guitars playing, along with the jimbee beating in the background. Four or five of the Five Points guys are playing in the room next door. They’re singing “Did You Hear the Mountains Tremble?” The music is so refreshing. It’s such a blessing to [...]

Socrates’ Apology
So one of the classes I am taking this spring semester is Introduction to Philosophy with Dr. Davis. When I first pre-registered for the class, I only really decided to take it because it satisified my humanities core requirement. I also thought it would be interesting to get a taste of philosophy. It has always [...]

Thankfulness
So I was just thinking back to this past Christmas break. It’s kind of unbelievable that it is already done and gone. It was kind of a hard and stressful break… it didn’t feel exactly like Christmas a lot of the time, and it was hard to be thankful for what God had blessed me [...]
