I am tired! Not only am I recovering from Thursday night (stayed up until 2:30am talking to Josh. Good conversation and prayer that I really needed), but I had the privilege of helping my friend Chris move across town. We started at 9am and ended around 1:30 or so. It was a small moving van and he didn’t have a whole lot of stuff, so we were able to get things loaded up fairly fast. He had another friend show up to help, so the three of us got him moved in. I like the apartments he moved into. They were clean and roomy for a two bedroom. I asked him if he thought they had three-bedrooms and he thought they did at a price of $750 or so. I would love that! They’re just a bit far from the college though. There is a bus route that goes by there, so if we learn the routes a $30 a month bus pass might be a good investment.
I’m honestly thinking about using the bus more, ‘cause the price of gas is horrible! I’ve spent 70 dollars on gas this month and am about to put another 30 to 40 worth in. It would definitely be cheaper to learn the bus routes.
So, because I’m tired, I’m having a hard time concentrating on homework. Thus this entry on my laptop which will get posted later on. I sat down yesterday and went through my calendar to see what I had to do to finish out the term. I have a list now and can plan my homework accordingly. The main thing is my external western civ course. It should go fast, but I have to be on top of things for the next four weeks.
Yeah, school ends the second week of June. It’s amazing. I’m ending my Junior year, going to intern for the summer, and then when I come back I’ll be in my Senior year! Wow. There’s going to be a lot of changes next year and I’m getting stoked for them. I’ll be taking a couple of Bible Independent Studies from Dr. B. and probably doing a couple of external studies – all along side regular classes. I’m thinking next year is going to be a blast, ‘cause of living in an apartment and being able to isolate myself to focus on homework. Being off of campus is going to be very nice. No more loud noises at twelve in the morning. Yeah, Josh will be up late, but he should be able to keep quiet at that time…
I’ll need to transport my desk from home. Some of the books and other things I have there will need to come over here. I have a sofa, chair, folding table, and several other things that we’ll need. The thing I don’t have is a bed. I’m wanting a twin because I’ve discovered that since I have been sleeping in a twin I get better sleep. Plus it saves on space and I’m going to need space for bookshelves. I have a plan to make some shelves that are specifically designed for small paperbacks. We’ll see if I get to do that when I go home.
Okay, let’s get back to the homework.

Here’s a question that occurred to me as I was studying Theology: Assuming the Bottomless Pit is truly bottomless and the normal laws of physics apply, how fast will Satan be traveling at the end of a thousand years? So, can any of my friends or relatives answer that?

Here’s another thing I’m looking forward to when I get an apartment – cooking my own food! Yes, a guy who wants to cook. I’m getting really tired of all the processed food that we eat in the cafeteria. I’m hoping to buy some organic, but most definitely more fresh fruit and veggies. I want to learn how to make hummus. I want to find out more about nutrition and what my body really needs to have to survive. Yeah, there will be the days where I order pizza, but I hope to make those days and the days I eat out very few and far between. I also have friends who are excited about having a place to come and cook at. Both Brittany and Joe are very excited. *laughs* Hey, I won’t complain.
I’m already packing some of my stuff… My reasoning is that by packing my stuff and putting it in a storage unit, I’ll be able to clean better for white glove inspection at the end of the term. I plan on taking all unnecessary stuff to the storage unit the last week of May. That includes my recliner and fridge and a lot of books. My room is going to look rather bare by the time I get all that out. That will be a good thing for the whole cleaning idea.
I need to decide what books I want to take with me to Everett. I have a few books that are on my to read list for the summer:
How Now Should We Live? by Chuck Colson
Refuting Evolution
The Light and the Glory by Peter Marshall and some other guy
Crime and Punishment by that Russian guy who I’m not even going to try to spell his name.
I do have several others but those are the ones within range of my eyes. I kind of expect to be required to read some books for my internship.
I also want to keep up on the Greek stuff, so I basically need to take at least half of my notes and maybe even my grammars. Which is a lot. Two years of notes and handouts take a lot of room. I should be able to organize and consolidate them though.
I wish I knew where I was staying and how much room I’ll have. That is important to what I pack to take up there and what goes into storage. Maybe it’ll be with an older couple who have a spare room. Maybe it’ll be bunking with a teenager. Maybe they’ll rent me an apartment… Nah, I’d rather stay with someone.
Man, this is a thinking about the Future type of post. Hunh. Knowing me, everything I say will change by this summer, or by this fall.
Oh, I was looking at an EBC Calendar for next year. We actually get three weeks of Christmas break from December to January 9th. I’m excited ‘cause that gives me more time to do things. The bad thing is that it pushes Spring Break down a week to the last week of March and I really hope that Embry-Riddle does that too. I want to be able to spend Spring Break with my brother. (That depends on a lot of things, but it’d be a fun time!)
