school’s out

Today, I finished my second semester at Flagler, and now I have three left.  I am feeling very chill today, just typing away at the computer and looking up random oddities that the internet has to offer. 

 Last night, I had quite a long conversation with Jon about The Children of Hurin which is J.R.R. Tolkien’s new book.  We discussed the possibility of it being a movie (as well as The Hobbit).  I haven’t read it yet, but I heard that it was a good read.  I think the concern (not mine, mind you) will be whether or not it is on par with Tolkien’s other books, as well as if it can be made into an epic movie like LOTR.

Tonight I will be going to Flagler’s design show to support my friends who have their work in the show.  Afterwards, I was thinking about going dancing or something celebratory.

I will leave you until next time with a link to a picture of a mysterious object that was found in some guy’s Frito bag.  The second comment made me laugh really hard.  Mysterious Object Found!

happy time 2!

My parents came to St. Augustine for two days, and I am blessed that they were able to make the trip to be able to see the group I hang with as well as the church I attend.  I was a little nervous about getting up in front of 300+ people to say those two words (“I do”) over a series of questions for being a new member.  I love the church that I attend.  The teaching is not on par with Trinity or Faith, but I feel like this church has a good grasp on keeping the college-aged group involved in the community and striving to better serve the Lord.  Before actually coming to live here, I visited the church and was taken aback by the service and how different it was.  I really wasn’t prepared (in my heart) to come to realize this church as a second home.  In fact, I will go as far as to say that I balked at the idea of being involved in the church, but I have come to realize that this is where God wants me to be, and I trust that He has the best course laid out for me.

In other news, I GOT A COMPUTER!!!!(woot)  Thanks to planning (and money), my parents and my brother have provided me with something that I need.  I want to thank both my parents, my brother, as well as Jon (for loading cool tunes on the computer) for such a great gift.  I really don’t deserve it, and I told my parents that I can do without it (because I didn’t want them to spend the money on me), but it is still a blessing, and design work will be so much easier for me on it.

Well, that’s about it for now.  I will write later this week (after finals) to give everyone a further report.

happy time!

Today was a great day. Everything has been going great so far, but I have to sign up for classes tomorrow, so I need to wake up extra early to get the classes I want. I took this picture I found today and messed around with it in Illustrator. Not very good, mind you, but I enjoy doing stuff like it anyways.
