First day of school!



We all remember the first day of school, so eager, so zelous, so fervent. The excitement rolled from your tongue like a corpulent seal that rolls into the ocean, unknowingly spiraling to it's fate as the ambitious shark lingers below.

Yes, these were the days we will always remember. Waking up at 4 in the morning in fear that your buss will leave without you, or sleeping in till a minuet before and chasing the bus down with your pants at your ankles. It's happened to the best of us, there is no need to lose that precious sleep. Not any more.

Well today I started my first day of the School of Ministry. Nothing at all like any of that happened. Actually, my first major class was Theology 1 in which Nelson gave us a number of pages that he printed out that could barely fit in a 3 inch binder. I proceeded to take my own notes as he spoke, drawing out the format that he like his papers done and writing down "Fun Facts" of information he hinted would be on up coming tests. These hints were almost like outrageous winks, like the type you'd think some one throw you on the ground and hold your tongue for. Needless to say, he made it very clear what would be on a test and what we would need to study. Theology was my only class today. We had 2 discussion times during the class which I really enjoyed, I talked with 2 of the other guys who are like 3 times my age and really pulled a lot out of what we were going over.

I’m not gonna lie, I’m ridiculously excited for this up coming year. If you’re praying for me at all, keep doin it! I'm gonna need it soon. Who knows, I probably already do!
