Another Day in the Neighborhood

It's raining.

For some odd reason it always rains when I have to go to the library and inevitably walk in through torrential downpours in order to get there leaving me wet down to the bone.

The past few days have been busy yet uneventful all at the same time. School is becoming routine and "personally annoying" as one of my classmates told the professor in lecture last week. Hilarious.

Biology is slow and has the possibility in the briefest of moments to be amusing. My professor likes to make the over-used Alabama football joke to break up his lectures about the composition of atoms. One of such tangent he started discussing shark attacks followed by rapid fire slide show of various "dangerous" animals. My favorite moment was after he showed a photo of Bambi: "What animal is responsible for the most human fatalities in the United States?" A girl behind me said "Is it because deer hit the cars?" One of my classmates sarcastically replied "No it's because they EAT people." Seriously, I laughed for a good 5 minutes through the lecture.

Everything else that I'm taking (Design I, 20th Century Art History, and Painting II) are tons of work with their own frustrations. I enjoy my professors I just can't seem to get back into the creative swing. I've got to find it again because the goal is "Graduation. Graduation. Graduation."

We had our first small group meeting yesterday. I think it went well. Erik and I work great together plus is was just fun to hang out with everyone. We had 7 people (including Erik and myself). Hopefully we will grow as the weeks pass.

Encounter rocked my face RIGHT off last Thursday. Man, it is like spiritual manna from heaven whenever I go. Matt discussed being impressed with God. If you want to listen to it, which I highly recommend, go to iTunes then type in "Grace Campus Ministry" for a podcast.

Well I'm headed back to studio to gesso some boards then read Art History until my eyeballs fall directly out of my head. I wonder if that's even physically possible and if it were could I get a University approved class excuse for it....

Haha, well once again friendly readers - thanks for stopping by.
