Schmickle

Couple things going on right now. It's the end of my last first week of spring semester, for one. And I'm going to a training seminar this weekend that should be amazing (I'm sure I'll have something to post about that later). And I'm thinking of going on a mission trip overseas this summer.

1) First Week
     The first week of class is always kind of crazy; you're getting your syllabi, you go through the introduction phase ad nauseum for each class, homework kind of kicks in but not really and what they actually give you feels ridiculous, and you're still getting yourself settled. It usually feels like a pretty long week.
     Luckily, I had two classes cancelled! Both twice-a-week classes, though, which kind of sucks because now we'll have to catch up. Oh well. My other twice-a-week class is a PE class and we didn't have to dress out or do anything both times we met; just went over ground rules and semester objectives. Oh, and I dropped one of my classes, so now I don't have anything at all on Fridays. Woo!! So, really, the second week is going to be my first "normal" week, because my schedule will actually kick in.

2) 2012 Asuncion seminar
     More information on this can be found here.

3) Mission Trip?
     I learned this past Tuesday at a campus worship service that University Ministries is organizing 3 trips overseas this summer. One to South Africa, one to Bangalore, India, and one to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. There are informational meetings for each this week; I'm going to 2 out of 3, and I spoke with someone personally about the third already. Hopefully God will speak to my heart for one in particular; I'd really like to go on another mission trip, and I know that doesn't come from myself (because I don't usually care, to be honest). So, updates on that to come, I'm sure.


Alright! Well, I'm off to my Photography class. Peace out!
