lacross & hoedown

Today started out with a very bright and perfect weathered Lacross game. Ya see, there is this kid, Brandin who I met at Snider (school I do contact work @ for Young Life) last year, and well he has been wanting me to go to one of his games. Don't remember Brandin? Well, ~CLICK HERE~ or ~CLICK HERE 2~ and you will see who I am talking about. Well, I woke up this morning and I went to his game. It was pretty cool.I don't fully understand the sport, and I super don't understand why they don't wear leg protection. But, it was good to watch, especially on a day like today.

Then I went to the library and did my BSF, YEAH BABY!!Nothing like a little library that get's me going! I did really like being in the word though, there is no sarcasm there. But prepare yourself for this sarcasm because it is coming at you fast.

THEN I GOT THE CHANCE TO STUDY LAW STUFF!! YES, THE CONSTITUTION! The constitution is so sweet to learn! I just want to memorize the whole thing word for word. . . Then the sarcasm stopped. And the truth came out that I am going to be so happy after Tuesday when I don't have to learn this stuff anymore. It is literally going to be dropped out from my memory. Good use of college credit's? No, but that is just how it is sometimes.

Then the afternoon progressed into the evening, and soon I found myself at a Young Life Hoedown! That is right, get your boots and cowboy hat on because we are square dancing!It was all nice and howdown like in that barn. Pictured above is Ryan, you remember him from when I went to Chicago not to long ago. Here is my dancing partner. Ain't she just the prettiest thing East of the Mississippi? Miss Jenny is what they call her round these parts.

Day at a glance.

So I start off real early Monday through Friday. Yes, my alarm clock is set for 5:22A.M. I set it for 5:22, because I almost always hit the snooze just once; an extra five minutes is always enough. But, on most days, my body wakes me up automatically like 5 minutes before my alarm goes off; on those days I just get up. This day, I needed those extra five minutes. It is strange, so far on Sunday, Monday, and today my body has decided to wake me up at 4:30A.M. Very strange, and I really hate it. I usually go use the restroom, and get a drink. I can usually go back to sleep then.

~WORK TIME~

Yes, that is correct. I am off to work. I try to be in my car at 6:20A.M., that get's me to work at 6:28-6:30, just in time to welcome the first parent ready and willing to drop their little one off. So, work "usually" goes really smoothly in the morning, and that is that. On Tuesdays I usually leave like 5-10 minutes early, so I can get to class on time. I only have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So, today, since today is Tuesday I left at about 8:38A.M. I believe, and headed to school. As soon as I get to school, I used the restroom (aren't you glad you know that?), and went to class.

~Mass Communications~

My first class of the day, both Tuesdays and Thursdays is Mass Comm/Comm 250 with Julie Creek. I really enjoy this class, and I really enjoy this professor. It is an interesting look at the mass media mediums in America; their start, significance, and future role. This class starts at 9:00A.M. and is over promptly at 10:15A.M. On this day, when class was over I went directly to the Library where I needed to get some studying done for my Law class that I have in the evening.

I studied, and studied and took an online Quiz, and then went directly to my next class.

~Interpersonal Communications~

At 1:30P.M. my interpersonal Comm/Comm 212 with Sheila Cuffy starts. I do not much care for this class, and while I like the professor as an individual, I don't really see a teaching style. She changes up her methods of teaching, and her Exams are all over the place. Sometimes she will tell us to study something specific and will even tell us what questions she will ask, and then doesn't. Or, she will tell us to stay away from a certain section, and then questions from that section will pop up. It is frustrating. All in all this class should be fun, and applicable. But, I hate it. We watch movies for every section of chapters we go through, and they suck. Today was a movie day, we watched Bringing Down the House with Queen Latifah and Steve Martin. I couldn't hardly take any more, and I left about 30 min early; such a frustrating class. So, this class gets out at 2:45 on most days, today it got out at 2:15P.M. for me. I called a friend back who called during class because he had some questions about God/Holy Spirit/Jesus. We talked for a while, and then I drove to work. I have to be at work at 3P.M. which I was right on the dot.

I go to work, play with kids, and leave at 6P.M. I leave at 5/6 P.M. every other day. I use to get to stay till 6 every day, but they cut hours because of "economic instability." Kind of sketchy, but whatever.

So, since today I left at 6 instead of 5, I don't get any dinner, just go directly to class.

~Elements of Business Law~

I kind of like this class. It is by far the most difficult, but probably the one I enjoy the most. I am quite unfamiliar with all the content, but enjoy learning about the American law system as applied in a business setting. This is the second class I have taken for my Minor in OLS (Organizational Leadership & Supervision). I like this class, because I see how it is going to be applied in real life, and he (Kenneth Mattern) actually is an attorney in Fort Wayne, so he has a lot of real life experience and stories. He is extremely well spoken and informed. I like those qualities in a professor, he/she can be the most difficult prof ever, but as long as they know what they are talking about, and know how to teach, it's all gravy for me; I enjoy a good challenge now and then.

When this class get's over, I am pretty tired. I am pretty hungry, and mentally beat. When I went home I got something to eat, watched ohh maybe 45 min. of Television, and then hit the hay (went to zzZZ town/bed). That was my day.

Things I did not put in my BLOG = Prayer; I pray through out the day all day, every day. I try to make prayer as constant as possible. Bible Study; I did not put in my Bible Study (BSF) work, because next week is BSF's spring break, so we will not be meeting or getting new material. I will be doing the study starting on Monday. So, I try to just get in the Bible, and read and ask God to speak to me in whatever part I decide to read.

Thanks for taking interest in my day. I tried to put it out just as it comes. There were a couple of little insignificant things I did, that I did not mention. . . because they were insignificant.

busy boy

Today was non-stop go go go, read read read it seemed. I leave work at 8:30, go directly to class, after I get out of class, I go directly to Library. STUDY TIME! Then, I go straight to class at 1:30. Class get's out at 2:45, and I have to be back at work at 3:00. I leave work at 5:00 today because every other day I have to leave at 5 instead of 6....because of hour cuts :-( The, I have class at 6:00-8:45!! Goodness!!The evening class is brutal too. It is Elements of Business Law for my minor in OLS (Organizational Leadership & Supervision). I am so tired, but when I got home I had to scan my application for a summer internship position for the Young Life camp that I volunteered at last summer. I am extremely mentally exhausted, and ready to go to bed. God is very good, and deserving of all I have.
