Man, I miss this site, but school has taken over my life (which is a good thing I guess; Its good to have more social life than an internet forum).
I have Statistics, Physics, Physics lab, STATICS, Materials Engineering, Biblical Poetical Books homework calling (Statics is a... well, it's tough). I have to write a report relating Ecclesiastes to Eastern religions (Which, by the way, if anyone wants to recommend some good Primary source materials, that would be cool), and I have to tutor people in physics and statistics. I'm in student senate and on the academics committee. Last week we just got through initiating our Flooder freshmen (Flooders!!!). I have three or four chapels a week to go to. There is always some kind of excitement here on Flooders (Floor runs, devos, HALO tournament, random events, shopping cart-like projects, hangin out, etc) There's lake parties, Symphony, Volleyball tournaments, movies, midnight Bridge-jumping trips ice-cream coffee shop IHOP runs, Church, piano, books, Marine Corps training, Community street ministry, Paintball team practices and tournaments (I'm a captain), prayer and meditation time, and sleep somewhere in there (maybe).
And all these things are demanding massive amounts of my time, which I don't have much of.... So all this goes to say, I'll try and pop in here and write a post, if I should ever get a break. I miss arguing and thinking about abstract things... I'm almost sick of formulas. Everything in Engineering is about finding the right formula and the right numbers and plugging it in...
But I'm having a great time back at school.
Ecclesiastes 5:18 "Then I realized that it is good and proper for a man to eat and drink, and to find satisfaction in his toilsome labor under the sun during the few days of life God has given him -- for this is his lot. Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work -- This is a gift of God. He seldom reflects on the days of his life, because God keeps him occupied with gladness of heart."
