God has certainly been good to us. Allowing us to raise the rest of our support in the time we needed was great! We're so excited to be back on campus...and not making phone calls. Well, at least as often.

California is about what I was expecting, although I didn't think that adjusting to a new state and making all new friends would be as emotionally draining.

Switchfoot's new cd is great, but their song 'Politians' is like a gnawing at my brain. Why are they condemning the political structure of a country that gives them the freedoms to make those comments? I don't understand that, especially from a Christian group. Other than that...the cd is great.

I'm not sure...but I can't think of anything more inspiring than Roger Hershey's 'Eternal Perspective' talk that's on the Student2Student website...

"Right decisions are made by right perspectives"

A picture from last week's Roger Powell Basketball handout/outreach. I'm not sure how much the card on ebay ended up going for...but the fact that it was on there at all...pretty funny.

Oh...and it's official that I'm going to be moving out of Champaign on March 30th. That's only 3 days after we get back from Panama City Beach, which is pretty stinkin' close to now. I guess that means, what...that I have to start packing? Yikes. I think I'd rather just throw stuff away.

Oh...and I guess there's all of the emotional stuff that I'll probably have to work through, also...thinking about how the Lord is leading me outta here and onto Cal Poly, how the Lord has used this place to grow me...all that stuff that'll probably make me cry a bit...er...think about crying. Maybe not.

I'm currently in the process of figuring out what my next 10 weeks are going to look like. Basically, it comes down to whether or not I'm going to be able to leave Ohio during my time of raising support. I'm going to be leaving campus after Spring Break, for those of you who don't know. I'm attempting to get out to California to do some MPD with Deb with some of her current supporters and then some new possibilities...but there's some things right now that are just keeping that from really being able to happen, and it's really beginning to frustrate me. I think that it might simply come down to the fact that I don't like being told what to do, and I don't like it when people say what I plan to do isn't a good plan. Maybe that's just plain stubbornness, maybe it's pride...I don't know. But it certainly doesn't make things less frustrating when you're trying to plan things out.

But eating a bowl of Cap'n Crunch's Peanut Butter Crunch sure helps...
