| Well Hey. I guess it's been two months, so I guess I will go ahead and update. John Brown University is treating me great. The people are good and the classes are good. There is definitely alot of work though. I am probably averaging a 5 page paper a week on top of exams and regular homework assignments. But believe me, I am definitely not complaining. The Razorbacks on the other hand, are not treating me so great. They are now 2-6 and 0-5 in the SEC. We have the talent to be a much better offensive team, but we just dont have the coach. Well, I've gotta get back to some more homework, studying, and writing. I have a paper due tomorrow, an Old Testament exam tomorrow, and a paper due Thursday. Man, I am definitely a really good procrastinator. Alrighty, gonna go, leave lots of comments.

| Someone told me that I needed to update. So here ya go. I mean geez, is once a month really necessary? How about one update per season. Anyway, school is going great. I love it here at JBU, but Im still not use to the homework aspect yet. I am still playing catch up and have been ever since school started. This may be evident by the fact that I was reading and writing a paper last night/this morning. I went to bed with my paper still unfinished at 5.45 and woke up at 7.45 so that I can finish it. It is due at 9.25 so I should have plenty of time. In other news, the Arkansas Razorbacks beat Missouri State last Saturday and had better beat Vanderbilt this Saturday. Went to Prairie Grove last night to play some church league softball even though I needed to be reading and writing. But it was worth it. They would've been short a player had I not been there and we did win both of our games (I like to think that I was part of that reason too). Well, thats all that I can think of on my 2 hours of sleep and I need to finish writing my paper. So............ if you have any questions or comments please feel free to ask. I would love to hear from you.

| Well........I thought I'd put in a few cents since I haven't in a while. Let's see, I am currently sitting in my dorm room at jbu. I moved in on Wednesday and had orientation Thursday through Sunday then classes start on Monday. It's going great though......it's gonna be a great year at a great school with great people. Since I posted last, I have had the privilege to spend some time with some of my best friends that have been away. For starters, Aaron Davis was in town for a couple weeks and I was able to spend some (although not as much as I would've liked) time with him before he left for Alaska. Also Ryan Cook was in town for the last time this year as he starts he official position at a church in Harrison. Jennifer Smith has been working camps all summer and was in town before heading off to Michigan. Carrie Jenkins is headed to college in good ol' Missouri at Drury University. I finished my summer internship a week and a half ago. Scottie (youth pastor) was on vacation so I got the opportunity to fill in. It was incredible, everything was smooth and just felt great. I am truly full of excitement as I look forward to being a youth pastor as the church that God has planned for me. Oh, I also talked a little with Michael McDaniel who has been in Louisville, KY since June 1st. But it hasn't been very much. It's crazy how when you grow up, nothing turns out how you plan it. I mean all of my best friends are going to school or working at least 2 hrs from 'our home' but it's good b/c God uses thoses times to force us to meet and minister to new people. So I just want to encourage all of you that when a friendship is weakened or loss, look at it as an opportunity to reach out and touch somebody new. Because we all have that one thing that everybody else needs......the ability to be a friend. Alrighty, I'll see or speak or hear from you all another day. Until then. Adios.

| Well, it's Saturday afternoon and I'm playing NCAA Football 2006. It's not as great as I was hoping but it is still good. I got back from Chicago on Friday night. It was a spectacular trip. God blessed our group with numerous opportunities to connect with urban children, each other as a church group, but most imortantly with God. It was a great experience that I will never forget. Our hub leader, Kash, is a great man of God who can definitely have some fun. My favorite part of the camp may have been the camp pastor though. Osei was incredible to listen to and to watch as he volunteered to help with whatever however he could when his only requirement was to speak. I actually really miss it, but I guess I am glad to back home. Anyway......leave some comments or somethin.
