Oatmeal and Coffee

I probably should be doing homework... but here I am, not doing homework, so oh well.

 

I got up late this morning, because I got to bed late the night before. I probably went to bed at around 1:30-2:00am, partly because of homework, and partly because of having an interesting roommate. By the way, that reminds me, our bathroom has a new addition -- the Quote of the Day board. This is where I or Tonya write down the funniest thing that was said that day... and usually there is no shortage of these quotes between the two of us. Yesterday at around midnight I made some instant oatmeal. I came back upstairs, and I was sharing with Tonya the lovely 'did you know' facts that are on the little oatmeal packets. I was under the impression before this moment that everyone in urban america knew about oatmeal 'did you know's, but as I read the 3rd or 4th one, she turned to me with a bewildered look and said 'where are you getting all this random crap?' and started busting out laughing. I started laughing and explained the oatmeal packet phenomenon, after which time she birthed our first quote board saying: 'why get a college degree when you can have oatmeal?'

 

Today has been a pretty good day so far. Someone special to me has done me the honor of writing me into a novel they are working on (how extremely cool is that), and it's brightened my day... probably my next few days, if not week. Namely, my starbucks drink 'rasperry white chocolate mocha' is making an appearance... just because I drink it... :)

 

Oh, another new thing I'm excited about... for my ministry practicum (2 hrs a wk of mandatory ministry in order to graduate from Simpson) I am going to doing the Chico street ministry. This means that I get to do the kind of ministry I have been doing before... and that puts me in a little bit of a comfortable enviornment. Basically, I'd be on the team witnessing to the people on the streets of Chico every Saturday night. It's going to be really fun -- I'm excited.

 

I have more to say, but haven't the words to say it yet... thanks for listening friends.

Hey!

Go street ministries! That sounds like fun! Also that's cool you're getting written into a novel. Mel is writing a children's story about a little girl with a lisp who wants to sing. Kinda the same... but not nearly as cool. Mainly because hers is just an assignment. Anyway that's all I have! Peace out homie! Linz
