running home to you

hello.

the past couple of weeks have been hectic. insane. ridiculous.
one of my closest friends here got kicked out of Corban because she was involved drugs and alcohol. that sucked.
i found out that Ben (one of my marine friends) is engaged :D
i spent like 15 hours in the library doing research about spotted owls, being stretched, and balance.
american thought test... ughh. but it wasnt too bad.
i began my classroom observations in a middle school. love it!
my filipino friends informed me that they will be lucky to stay in the U.S until the end of the semester (meaning they will be deported in somewhere between a few weeks and 5 months).
spring break got planned. road trippin it down to california with some chicas from here who really want to go to disneyland :D
saw avatar.
random. the weather yesterday was amazing! i did homework outside with flip flops on :D of course today is crappy and raining.
i have four tests this week. not excited about that.
i was sick last week. its sucked.

my roommate and i decided yesterday that we need to work on purifying our minds. so goodbye secular music, scary movies, movies with sexual content, and anything that pollutes our minds. we have both been feeling convicted about beings set apart from the world. unfortunately that means we will be walking out of movies that our friends are watching. but that is what we are called to do so we are going to do it.

plans for tonight: wal-mart. cut-throat mafia. homework maybe. sleep.

tomorrow night my roommate and i both have a person staying with us for Corban Experience. thatll be fun. hopefully.

Wow- that is a lot going on in one week! Hope your mafia game was fun, and good for you, with keeping yourself pure. It'll be hard, but you can do it!
