verseseven!!!
I've made a few changes to my photo page, but nothing major. I have a ton of pictures I'd like to add, but unfortunately the university scanner acts up every time I try to use it. Maybe because I'm not supposed to be using it. :P
Tonight marks the return of my Wednesday night Bible study! Our topic is the Church as the Bride of Christ. I am looking forward to it. After years of going to Bible studies three and four nights a week, cutting it down to one has been weird for me. I just don't learn as well on my own. I can read over a chapter three times, and never get out of it what I would have gotten if I was listening to someone teach it. I guess I just need to pray for more wisdom and insight when reading. Of course, once we understand something we're supposed to obey it, which will cause me to know my sin when I don't obey. Which will show me again how sinful I am and how much I need a Savior. Oh...there's the point. :)
I'm feeling sad about my various groups of friends. They're sort of falling apart, as I said the other day. RUF is just weird now, because it's full of people I don't know (mostly freshmen). My friends and I are now the "old crowd," and lately it's hard to even get us in a room together. I do have other people to hang out with, and Ryan and I hang out a lot, but I miss the way things used to be. Kathy's always with her boyfriend and his friends, and Evan's always with his truckin' buddies, and I don't see either of them as much as I would like. And the less I see them, the more frustrated I feel, and the more likely I am to be childish and huffy about not seeing them, and spout a bunch of saved-up nonsense at them, making them want to stay away from me until I can act normal. :) It's a vicious cycle. I'm trying to figure out how to stop it. :P
One of the sort-of-old-crowd RUF girls is auditioning for The Real World. It's funny, because I really think she might make it. She's the right kind of person for it. Also, she goes to CBU, which is where Keri from the Chicago cast used to go. I'll keep all of you posted on that. :)
Does anyone (besides Lawson) watch Scrubs? (If not, you should.) Do you remember the one where J.D. (I think that's his name) had to hang out with the older doctor and his patient for several days, and they did this funny Real World-intro thing? I just thought of that. Okay, I'll shut up now.
