Druck

Hurricane Ike stresses me out, increases my heart rate, and makes me sick to my stomach.

We went to the soccer game tonight and it was raining the whole game.
It was a great game, our first home game!
Vikings won!

My math test was not so bad today.
I would say I missed maybe two out of the ten.
I am pretty positive that this was the hardest I have ever studied for a test for.
Hopefully it will reveal the fruits of my labor.

German class is always fun.
I have all the determination in the world to speak semi-fluent German by the end of this year, because of the ridiculous amount of money I have paid for these books.
And Coach Tim did the math and it is approx. $67 a class.
So every time we miss class, or slack off we are basically throwing away that $67 into the eternal abyss.
Talk about another means of determination.


On Friday's we have a lecture for all the English classes.
Today's was a billion [yes, a billion] times better than last weeks!
It was about Augustine and how to interpret the book as an 18 year old, 20 year old, and then 33 year old.
And how when you are 18 you see how most of it is about lust and prayer.
But a 20 year old sees it as a philosophical read.
Where as a 33 year old reads it as a book of love to God, and sees it as a means of conversion.
--There was a bunch of other stuff, but I am not going to get into it.

The first thing I wrote in my book was "Is this book all about love?"
The lecture today really tied into the way I interpreted it.
His goal must have been to try and get everyone's view into one lecture in order to please the masses.


Spinning class tomorrow morning at Northwestern.
For now, I am going to stick around in my room and stay updated on the weather.
