Currently I'm in my Junior year at Moody Bible Institute in downtown Chicago. I am finishing up my degree in Elementary Education. The program is pretty much the hardest elementary ed program you could imagine, but I love it a lot because it's the only place I know of that you can be a Bible and El Ed major at the same time. We work really hard to that end, but it is very cool to be some of the first people to learn an integrative philosophy of Christian education. I can't wait to start practicing all this; and the countdown is on, because in a little over a year I will be doing full time student teaching.

I changed the name of my blog today, because I wanted it to be more funny and reflective of the actual content. Anyways, the picture is of me and my room mate (Carissa) after her final recital. I was quite happy because music recitals are quite dramatic and this was the end of all the drama in houghton 325!!! Also, it went well (which is always a plus).
Anyways, this week was Founder's Week at good old Moody, which is like homecoming in some sort of pseudo-weird world where no one has ever heard of sports and all that exists is preaching and traditional hymnody... Also there is no classes for a week (but the catch is that we are required to attend most of these sessions. So, it's kind of like a break, but not really.
Anyways, anyways, anyways, (just keeping my theme) I did get to see the pastor's wife from my church in AZ who went here, which was fun. I also did hear some great messages. I also procrastinated all of my assignments until today. I'm about to do them... Good Night and Good Luck.

Well, if procrastinations is part of your title, you must have a plethora of them. It seems you practiced some of them during Founder's Week.

Congrats to your roommate on finishing her recitals. Those are scary critters, best served with a side of nerves and funny songs.

Anyways, thanks for the update. Keep on keeping on.

p.s. Ooo. Hymnody...what a word. Is that followed by sermonody?

Nice picture! Were you being taller than your friend? Or did she just feel like bending over? Well, I always like to look at pictures anyway, so feel free to put any on, even if they don't have anything to do with your topic!! I'm glad for you that those recitals are over.

I like your new blog name. I will not tell the basketball team (which you videotape every week) what you said about Moody and sports. Bless their little hearts. They try.
I looked up "hymnody" and it is a word! Medieval latin, though. Is that what they speak at Moody?
Love you, honey, go do your homework.

Lauri's thought was my first also. However, I'm guessing that you are one of Father Abraham's sons. Let's all praise the Lord!
