| I suppose I could update this thing for the sake of those people without facebook....i guess.
Summer is approaching and i couldn't be more ready. A few more weeks of class, just ONE more physics lab!! finally! My freshman year is almost finished! That sounds crazy even to me.
Intramural soccer has started up, which is brilliant fun. I just bought some sick new cleats. Was bidding on two and couldn't decide which ones i wanted more...so i got them both! The other pair should be here tomorrow. They are beautiful. I love my shoes.
I will be working at a kids summer camp at least part of the summer as a counselor coach person. Should be fun, although i'm a smidge nervous. It should be a blast though. Then I may shimmy on up to Nebraska again for the second half, because I always enjoy staying up there. Good people, good corn, lovely sunsets. We'll see...
God is continually showering me with blessings. He continues to draw me closer and closer to Him, and my time with my new fraternity brothers has been excellent. I have formed a few closer relationships within the group and we continually lift each other up in prayer and encouragement, sharing in our struggles, fears, passions. It has been very meaningful, and strengthening. I praise God for leading me to join with the group. He is ALWAYS so good!
Wish I was going to be able to make it back to kandern for grad. and see my mates off. I would kill to for some time back at the dorm, and some snow up the hill! top notch.
Malibu, wish i could be there for you man. You keep all my sonne babies in line for me. You tell them they had better be angels the rest of the year.
We must continue to lift up Matt and Sarah in our prayers. They have been hit harder than any of us. Continually remember them and pray God's blessing and comfort upon them.
Remember Virginia Tech, as that terrible tragedy has just recently taken place. Pray that believers may step up and shine God's love in this time of pain.
Alright, dear friends, brothers, family, strange stalkers...i leave you with this:
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 | | |
| Closer to spring break now than the start of the semester. That's a nice thought. Nothing too noteworthy going on. Staying busy with classes. I joined a "fraternity" group, more a social club here, Eta Alpha Omega. Great group of guys. It's nice to have guys to fall back on, guys that have a common desire to serve Christ in all things. It's good.
Oh, right, my BROTHER recently got engaged. Too cool!
I ended up dropping a course, which was a very good thing. I'm at 16 hours, and i'm still plenty busy. I loathe composition II, and any matter of english courses...i've had enough english, poems, shorts stories to last me the rest of my life...at least ones that i have to "analyze"...bleh.
The cold weather MAY have passed on for this winter. The past week has been very warm. We have had heavy showers this morning...semi flooding.
Taking one day at a time. I'm good. Looking at some quality chill time today. Perhaps a movie. First i'm going to get my blood flowing. Fixing to hit up the gym, work out, maybe drop some shots. Dad, missing the bball sessions. i'm rusty, that's all i can say.
Falcon brothers, i'm missing the good times on the field. tryouts are approaching. man, what i would give to have one more season with you all. enjoy it boys! leave it ALL on the field.
I'm off. Take care everyone. let the good times roll.

| Back at school and I'm feeling good. I am quite ready to be busy, and this semester I'm going to make a valliant effort to quite busy indeed. I'm currently set up to be taking 19 hours. It was supposed to be 18, but my advisor made some mistake and so it's 19. That should be fine given the administration waives my overage fee, because it's not my fault!
I'll probably be getting a job once I have a better understanding of my immediate schedule and get into the swing of things.
Went snowboarding in Colorado over the break. It was nice, but no, NO, it does not even compare to the Alps, I'm afraid. I biffed while shredding through the forrest and found an awful stump for my rear end to break my fall on. I have had a purple backside for several days now, it's just starting to fade, but still sore.
Doctor says I am having a recurrence of shingles. I got them junior year and went home early for spring break. This time it was totally different though, just a sharp constant pain in my ribs, no outbreak of rashes or anything. It's all good though.
The cold weather has finally hit Arkadoo, and it bites. There has been some flooding here from all the rain, and the gazebo down by the river is half under water, quite hilarious looking.
Yes, ready for busy, non-stop activity. That's how i roll.
I miss all of you, my dear friends. I miss Europe. But I'm doing alright on this side of the ball. Love you guys. God bless!

| So it's finals week. I have three wopping exams tomorrow. Yes, THREE, in one day. And I just got back from a party! Yes! I mean come on, I couldn't paSs up watching Ice Age II and eating deserts now could I?
Honestly, I think a great majority of college students are retarded. I've heard so many people saying how they stayed up the entire Night studying for exams, and I'm just like,"yeah, that's really gOing to help you when you Won't be able to stay awake, much less concentrate!" I don't know, maybe it's just me. I just don't care that much. I want to do well, don't get me wrong, But I'm alright with well. I don't need tOdo outstanding, perfect, or any other type of stressful-attempt-At-over-achievement words. I'm just fine with doing "well". A "B", dare I say, is not a bad thing people! I'm just being obnoxious, I know.
I suppose I'll give a bit moRe time to studying, then some computer time...or sleep, whichever one calls the louDest.
Later people. My fIrst love is calliNG to me. Say hello to good times.

| Thanksgiving break!!! simply superb.
I drove down to Le Tourneau University in Longview, TX Tuesday afternoon to pick up my mate Chang In. I crashed in his room for the night, saw the campus, good stuff. The next day we drove to Dallas and found Korea Town, not even kidding. You know, like China Towns, this was a Korea Town. I felt like the odd ball out and was getting funny looks...in Dallas Texas!!! Everywhere you looked where Koreans and Korean shops. It was heavenly. We stocked up on Korean goods and chowed down on some good ol' korean food before hitting the road around 4:00 PM to head back up to Hot Springs, AR. Got caught in Dallas rush hour traffic. Lost an hour's worth of driving in the process. Junk! But, let me say, we made up for it. Once we were on open country highway, we were cruising between 80 and 85 most the way, leaving people to eat our dust!! muahaha! So, we made fairly decent time. We arrived in Hot Springs, after several stops along the way around 10:00.
Weekend of fattening, here i come!! Party on. - armstrong. | | |
