It has been said that i wont be able to access the internet on campus next week at some point due to an upgrade or repair they will be doing within the network. I dont know if this will be all week..or just a few days. If it is all week, i'll try to check email and stuff a time or two at my brother's appartment...otherwise..i'll talk to you kids a little during and a bit more after the holiday. Merry Christmas, everyone! Enjoy time with your families if you have that luxury. Dont eat too much food. Praise God for his intricate plan. Bubye

It's been a few weeks since i've said anything at all here..so here i am to say i'm still alive.
i took a world history test yesterday that i think i may have gotten an A or B on. i'll find out in about 5 hours. I passed 101 by the skin of my teeth...so i'm pretty amazed at how good i feel about this test.
it's christmas time.
i put christmas lights all around our living room and bedroom. the living room lights are white and blue..the bedroom has the multi colored kind. There is just something about these lights that makes everything less stressfull. perhaps my roommates and i should discuss leaving them up all year.
Christmas shopping is an odd thing. i dont want people to feel like they have to buy gifts for each other..but i *love* buying gifts for people..its a good thing i'm a deal-finding kind of person...but the bad thing is...i would so much rather go christmas shopping and wrap gifts than to practice or study.
i've discovered a lot about myself through one of my roommates (stephanie) severely spraining her nkel last week. i've been helping her get around a lot..and getting things for her. She's got to be on crutches for probably 5 more weeks. She's learning to do a lot more things on her on...but a lot of things you wouldnt think about take help. Its a good thing i love that girl so much:)
Our Christmas program at school is tomorrow night. This week i've felt a lot more relaxed about it. I was placed in charge of publicity for the program and untill this week, i had that hanging over my head a lot...but the week fo a show...most of the advertising is done already. I hope i didn't leave any important things out. I didn't doa s much as i thought i was going to have to do...i hope it was all i was supposed to! i'm so scared that its going to come to 8:00 tomorrow night and hardly anyone will show up---and it will all be on my head.
well, i need to go...classes and stuff happen soon.

Philippians 4:4-9
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me--put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

Ephesians3: 16-20
I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
