Yesterday...

John and I found this ladder in the music library of the Johnson Center yesterday, and get this there was totally a door at the top. we both really wanted to climb it and explore up there, i mean i know it was probably just like Xmas decorations and stuff but maybe, just maybe...IT WAS THE DOOR TO NARNIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SNOW DAY!!

Wednesday was the best day I've had all semester. Amanda told me Wednesday night that we'd have a snow day and everyone said she was full of it. then Thursday morning at like 7 Angela and Erin run into our room and wake me up (if your a member of my family, or my darling roommate, then you know that i hate mornings). Anyway Ang and Erin both have their laptops and are shoving them in my face, again i was really mad until i saw what they were showing me, Malone has canceled all classes, YAY! so we all went back to sleep and got lunch, Erin wore her lightening bolt earrings in celebration (she only wears them for special occasions), and then we all went sledding down the huge hill of death, followed by an intense game of Dr. Mario, and Ultimate Spoons. it was a fantastic day.

Spreading The Blogging Love

i think i can safely claim that i helped inspire Angela, Dan, Lyn, Morgan, and Aaron to write blogs. and for that i think I'm awesome. but all credit goes to mike, for first inspiring me to blog. Yay older brothers!

Interesting Find

I guess this should teach me not to go through my friends stuff...i opened one of my very good friends desk drawers and found a lovely pair of undies! i mean i can't say i was really shocked given the very nature of this person, but it was still hilarious.

Annoyances

Why would anyone make the bathroom stall doors swing inward? I mean come on how much harder could it possibly be to make them open outward. all of the bathroom doors are like this at school and it's really bugging me, like every time I try to get out of the stall i have to do this weird limbo if I want to avoid a collision with the toilet. if I had like three lame wishes, I would use one of them to fix this problem

Snacks

I just came up with a really good snack combo...cheese and peanut butter...who would have thought

St. Francis...really cool dude

Lord, Make Me an Instrument of Thy Peace. it's this song that we have been singing in Chorale all year, and the text is so freaking beautiful that this song has ended up as my daily devotional. i thought i was pretty clever to turn this amazing piece of music into a prayer, then i found out, that originally it was a prayer, it was later converted into a song. so i did some researching and turns out its the prayer of St Francis. he was a really amazing man, he was in the army twice, was seriously diagnosed with lots of awful disease's,he sold everything he had to restore broken churches, and he took care of people with leprosy. anyway i just thought he seemed like a really cool dude, here is the prayer that inspired all of this:

Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master;
grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in forgiving that we are forgiven,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
