Bits and Pieces

I don’t do “this is my life” posts very often, because when other people post them I generally don’t read them (unless it’s fairly short). Clips of my life:

-This quarter is going to be difficult academically. 4 classes = 19 units = a lot of work. Lab, writing class, genetics, and a GE = lots of writing, reading, calculating. After Mike’s message at Catalyst I felt like I could earn As, and God was telling me that I wasn’t giving my best, and that’s not what he wants. So here’s to a quarter of working hard.

-I’m going to China this summer and I’m excited/scared/hopeful/anticipating God.

-I need community.

-A friend told me yesterday that I’m easy to talk to; this was a high compliment because I always feel like I’m hard to talk to because I don’t do small talk well. Since no small talk = no conversation or getting straight to the heart of people…

-It’s hard not going back to Calvin Crest this summer; I know that’s not where God wants me to be. I think this is the first time I’ve felt this so keenly.

-I don’t feel bad about drinking coffee on a semi-regular (2-3 times per week) basis anymore. I like it.

-I’m studying John right now and it is mind-boggling. I’ve read John 5 so many times simply because some of the implications are intense.
