So, I said I would post, but it won’t be very long. I hope to actually post more over Christmas break, so stay tuned! This week I had Thanksgiving with my roommate’s relative's house. It was a great time. Then got a couple of movies for $2 a piece, and I didn’t even have to get up early! I rock. Just kidding, but seriously. Anyways, only a couple weeks of school, finals, and then the trip home left! If I counted right, 18 days until I’m home! Anyways, I gotta go, so I'll chat later!

Hey everyone! So here I’m finally going to start writing a little bit about what I have been doing here at GC.
Have been doing a lot of rehearsals for Choral Union concert coming up in the beginning of December – singing Handel’s Messiah. Couple weekends ago, choir got to sing at the Cathedral Basilica in Saint Louis with the Boston Camerata, not too often that we get to perform with an amazing group like that! Last weekend, we had the Presidential Inauguration here at GC – another experience that doesn’t happen too often. Choir performed for that ceremony and also for a concert for the President. Life in general is busy, but has been fun hanging out with friends. Always playing Settlers of Catan (board game) and watching movies and playing Xbox 360. Tonight was great, watched a couple movies: Marnie by Alfred Hitchcock (crazy movie, but good) and Everything is Spiritual by Rob Bell (INCREDIBLE!!! Got to watch it! Beats the NOOMA videos I have seen!). Anyways, tomorrow, I will be going to Saint Louis with some friends through a group called Dirty Roots. They hand out food every Saturday to the homeless, so this will be a cool experience. Also, Sunday morning I will be going with some classmates to Mt. Vernon, IL, to visit a church and get some ideas for a project in our class, presenting data to give to the Free Methodist Church local district of why Mt. Vernon would be an excellent spot to plant a church. Should be fun, and now I’m outta time and I need sleep. Will chat again later! God Bless!

Hey everyone! So, I have been horrible about posting on the blog, but I do have something very important and urgent that needs your attention and your help. That is the LRA Disarmament & Northern Uganda Recovery Act. Check out the link below for more information and pass this on! Sign the petition and let your Congress people know they should support this! This was passed unanimously yesterday by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee!
Here is the link: http://www.invisiblechildren.com/obama
I have also put up a direct link to the site at the very bottom of the page. Thanks for your attention, and I hope to chat with you again!

Hey everyone, so I know I am bad at blogging because I feel I need to write something significant for it to be posted online, but I think I’ll do something a little different to help until I get used to it. Every once and a while, I’ll actually take time and work on a blog post, but in between, I am going to do something I like to call “The Rundown” (and no, I don’t mean in any way to copy the title off the movie The Rundown, just so we are clear) just to say quick what I’ve been up to. It won’t have many frills, but it will get you an idea of what I’m doing… But that will have to wait until tonight when I get time to do it. So stay tuned friends! I’ll blog ya later :P
