well, it's that time of the semester again: midterms! i have an adminstration and leadership midterm coming up monday. i don't think it'll be too difficult, but still...it's a midterm. i'm actually getting a take-home midterm this time in my family ministry class. should be interesting to see how that shakes out. all-in-all, i have three ( Read more... )

well it's been one of those afternoons. sat around at lori's. watched the daytona 500. dropped off my deposit for my new apartment here in gastonia. yep. i'm moving. i wanted to be closer to lori: it's just logical and it's more convenient. i'm looking forward to it (not the physical moving part of course, but the moving-closer-to-lori part ( Read more... )

However, I can see very much how men would be attracted to it. The show seems to have such a great ability for providing enough drama for the ladies and ( Read more... )
