( I thought that I lost my blog when I was writing last night cause I was typing and then everything just disapppear, but thanks to technology it was saved. I didn't realize it was saved until this morning so here it is.)
I just got off work at 11:30 and now I'm blogging, eating pie, chatting, and checking mail. What a life!
The big thing that has taken up the last couple days is the rough draft for an English paper. The nice part is I finally got the rough, rough draft done. I need to say a BIG thanks to Ashley who helped me get some problems out of the way( I owe you ash). I got amazing friends here.
I think everything else is mostly going good. I got to go to my first D group on Wednesday so that made me extra happy.
I took a test in Foundations of Music Ministry and I'll say I could of done a lot better( Not like I failed though). I thought, "Okay, so next time I'll just study more, it's no big deal". Then right at the end of my shift, I was talking to Brandon about the test and it just warmed my heart when he said that we all go through difficults and struggles, but that doesn't change God. We can trust in Him and he will help us. I was so happy after Brandon said that, I just wanted to clap my hands and shout (:

Day
My day:
I woke up at 7:30, showered, dressed, got stuff for classes, and headed down stairs.
I met with Mr. J. Singleton for English class, turned in my implications, talked a couple minutes, and headed to the music hall.
In the music hall, I waited in the classroom until Mrs. Robinson told us that class was canceled because Mrs. Miller's boy was sick and Mrs. Miller couldn't make it. I then headed to chapel.
I was super early to chapel so I hung around and talked to Janet and Hayley.
Chapel was good. Dr. N. Pop talked about how he was raised in Romania and how Christians are affected over there.
I then hung out with Jenni in the parlor till christmas choir practice. I thought I would die in there. I was just apathetic in there today. (: I then headed down to lunch.
I ate lunch. I then went to my room to take a nap. I took a nap and headed to the music hall.
At the music hall I practice the piano for an hour. I then had a meeting with Mrs. K Foster about beginning my portfolio. I then headed to my room.
I then took my trash out. If I remember correctly( its been a stupid day lol), I then hung out in my room. I pretty much hung out there for a while. I then headed down to the snack bar to read a little before Mom picked us up.
Mom, Rochelle, Sam, Melissa and I got in a car and headed downtown. In downtown, we parked and went into a chinese restaurant to eat with Uncle Mike. We then enjoyed awesome food together.
Afterwards, Mom and I headed back to GBS where Mom dropped me off and she headed home.( Uncle Mike, Sam, Mel and Chell went some other place to eat cheesecake)
I went to my room, did a few things, then headed to hang out with Jenni. I hung out with Jenni for a while in the snack bar. I then headed to my dorm.
In the dorm, I signed in, watched some ping pong, worked out, played a game of ping pong, and came up to my room.... and here I am. I'm tired. Goodnite.

Sickness
I hate sickness. Doesn't everyone? Well, I don't have it yet, but it has swarmed G.B.S. by storm.
We are probably one of the last colleges to get it this season though. I don't know if that is good or bad. Lots of students have been quarantined to their rooms while they are sick to try to slow this terrible flu, H1N1,etc down ( Yes, there have been cases of swine flu here).
So I guess this community is just one big happy(SICK) family and have been taught well to share. The problem is I don't think that was ever meant to share sickness.

Homecoming
This past weekend was homecoming for alumni here at God's Bible College. An exciting time I'm sure for all the "old" people.
The great part for me was I got to work friday and saturday night during homecoming. Not to mention a couple extra hours. So here, two weeks in a row, I worked 22 hours for a normal 15 hour week. I've worked the more hours because its extra or I'm working these weeks to take off for other things I need to go to.
Homecoming had a banquet dinner friday night, a service, then ice cream. Saturday was like a picnic with food, sales, a dunk tank,etc all on main campus. It was all quite fun for the parts students got to participate in(which that would minus the ice cream). A bonus was seeing RuthAnn, plus Ms. Fikes and her being generous to give the all night guard pizza(ME)!

More
Something more that I love is that the Cravens have a wood burner to heat their place and the smell around campus is just amazing!
Another thing is that during the day its warm, but cool enough to feel like fall... Its a sweet feeling. Before long, I'll be heading home for thanksgiving and enjoying the holidays.
School is going good. I'm in my neighbor's room studying for the NT Lit quiz tomorrow right now.
My last entree talked about an English essay and I'm glad to say I got a B-. That class is funny, but I do believe that it won't be with this coming week.
I do also believe its amazing how much snacks and things I receive during work. Today I worked for 4 hours and I took Mom's cookies to eat, Jenni brought brownies, and Renee brought in pumpkin bread left over from her D group. That was just today. Other times I've gotten a shake, fries, cookies, etc. (:

I feel good
I feel good! Maybe I'm basing this all on feelings, but my feelings are high (:
Things that are happening: (This will probably random, but I like it..)
1.Like I took a nap today so I look like a zombie but I am refreshed a little.
2. Like when I had to let Lucas Ryder into the band room during work because it was locked. Out of no where on our way there we were talking about our inner black female Gospel singer deep inside of us. I need to tell you that mine has never appeared. LOL.
3. Like today in NT Lit. we were going to watch a documentary on Rome, but it didn't work out The greatest part was we got popcorn because Pastor Cravens slaved over a microwave for an hour. The documentary video didn't work so we had our quiz, ate popcorn and left.
4. Like I get to work tonight, it will be the third time this week out of four times that I have to. It makes me happy because it makes my schedule open to go to Youth Challenge Friday the 30th.
5. Like Sam is getting better and I am slowly seeing him in the halls on campus. If people are wondering how he's doing, ask him. It's not like he doesn't have his own mouth.
6. The funniest thing ever is the little essay we have to write for English about an article called Coffee As a Means of Grace, A Sip of Theological Humor by Michael Svigel. Josh May, another student here at GBS, thinks he can sum up his essay with one sentence, "He's on crack!" LOL.
Besides my teacher, Mr. Singleton, I think it is the funniest thing in any English class ever.
( Do you like how many times I used the word "like"?)
