Settled And Moving Forward.

This post is maybe a little overdue. I've now spent a week here at school and today was finally the first day of classes. I say finally because I'm not sure if I could have handled any more orientation/registration/exasperation mumbo jumbo. It really wasn't that bad... In fact it's been awesome getting to know so many new people. Plus, there are quite a few people here that I've been acquainted with through Kaleo and Camp Qwanoes and I'm finally able to truly get to know them.

Part of this past week was spent auditioning for the various extracurricular activities (ie sports, choirs, worship teams, etc). I considered trying out for one of the worship teams but quickly pushed it aside. There are many music and worship majors that would surely be auditioning for these roles and as a theology major it didn't seem like my place. However, after a few people started pushing me to try (and a sudden burden to audition the day of), I went for it. I was really nervous auditioning among such amazing talent. And if I was in charge of choosing people for the worship teams I surely would not have chosen myself. However, for some reason God put me on one of the teams. I still feel highly inadequate to be a part of this team as well as very blessed. We'll see how it goes.

In other news, today was the first day of greek. And tomorrow is our first quiz. This is a prime example of what greek will be like for the next two years. Shame.

It's getting late and I should really start making the trek back to my dorm. It's quite a trek from "the point" (a gas station connected to a subway connected to a coffee shop down by the highway). "The point" is a common gathering place for everyone. It's a good place.

That's all for now.

Goodbye.

I take it Greek is going to be the reason for many 4 am study sessions.

So glad for you and those around you that you made the worship team. We'll be praying for you in your Greek studies.

Cool that your part of the worship team, and your definitely adequate for the job, either way god is up to something, just don't know what yet.

Johnson. This news excites me so. Your approach to worship has profoundly impacted mine, and leading with you remains one of my great memories of Kaleo. My prayer is that He would bless many through your gifts this year.
p.s. - I have no advice for the greek. sorry. ;)
