Well...I haven't posted in awhile. I've been really busy with homework. Yes, I'm one of those students who actually does all the homework they get assigned. But, the interesting thing is that I actually want to do the homework (except math). Sometimes I even want to take something farther. Especially in New Testament and Comp. Those are my favorite classes.
We were talking about Jesus as Rabbi in New Testament on Tuesday. I was really excited to hear Josh (My teacher) talking about this since Vicky had shared with our Sunday School Class last year Rob Bells teaching and we listened to the "Dust of the Rabbi". You may remember the end, "May you be covered in the dust of your Rabbi". Josh spoke in assembly today. It wasa really incredible. Kelsey you should have been here! He completely understands everything...if you know what I mean.
Comp was really good today. We read a really powerful poem by Walt Whitman. We also read an essay that I particularly liked.
Tonight there is a mixer for all the social clubs, you are supposed to dress up like your favorite decade or something like that. I think I'll do homework instead. it's sad really but I'd rather memorize Greek nouns from the second declension then go hang with people dressed like pink ladies and greasers. If everyone was dressing up in Civil War or Medieval clothes, maybe I'd go!
Amanda and I took a break from homework last night and watched Robin Hood. Lets just say I have a completly new perspective on the movie!
I'm not going home this weekend because I'm going to a leadership conference on Saturday. I'm really excited and Josh Graves will be speaking.
Sunday they are having a special service at the church next door at 3pm. A bunch of Black and White churchs are geting together to worship together. They are expecting 1500 people at least.
Well perhaps I shall post again later...
