Thank Goodness it is Friday!

Words cannot explain how happy I am that it is friday. It has been a long week and I am really excited about relaxing this weekend and not having to worry about getting up early and make it to class. Speaking of making it to class, I have had a little trouble this week with my alarm system. On wednesday, I set my alarm for 7:30 and did not realize till the next morning when my roommate was saying my name that I had set my alarm for 7:30 P.M. and not a.m., ggrrrrrr. But I got out of bed and managed to make it to breakfast even. Where I found out that they have sandwich stuff out and you can pack a sandwich and some chips to take with you if you do not get lunch.  This is really handy for me considering that I do not get lunch on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. =( Alright so the other problem with my alarm was this morning. I set my alarm last night before going to bed. I made sure to set it to a.m. But again Katie woke me up and I looked at the clock and it was 8:20. I looked at my phone and realized that my phone had been on silent all night. I just laughed.  I rolled out of bed, did not make it to breakfast but oh well, life goes on.  
As I type I am in Sociology, and before you freak out mom, it's ok.  lol. Were working on group projects and our group leader went to the library to type up our survey. So I am killing time =).
Yesterday was really good. I love my Tuesday and Thursday classes. I have Old Testament Survey at 12:45, which is an amazing time to have class. The class is not that exciting but as I read the book before class, it becomes more interesting and it helps me to pay attention.  The professor has a lot of knowledge and I really want to be ably to retain all of it.  Right after that I have Ministry and Mission.  This class rocks my socks OFF. haha. I really do love this class. We just got done reading an amazing book, Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire. It just talked about how the church is in need of a dramatic change.  The author takes us through his struggles as he took over as pastor in a New York City church.  He tells us about all the struggles he had as a pastor and how the church grew so much that they had to move out of the small church into a big church with 4 services.  It is a great story on what God can do, and how much we need to rely on prayer. 
Today should be a good day.  Im getting ready to go to chapel. After that I have my terrible intro to drawing class, and then Expos and Research. I have a quiz in this class today but do not worry I studied =).  After that I am chilling out haha. Katie, Gabe, Sam, Katies friend Erin and I are all heading to the sally center around 9:00 to watch Forest Gump. Gabe has never seen it, can you believe that? I know it is CAAARRRRZZZYYY.
Alright well I better head to chapel, don't want to be late =)
Have an amazing day!

Ministry and Missions is a great class. I loved taking it and Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire is also an amazing book. Btw, who do you have for expos & Research? Please don't say McQuown, because if you do, I feel your pain.

Prof Jenkins is amazing. Tell her I say hi, I worked for her for two years in the writing center. She won't waste your time on writing, get all you can from her.
