You know how I know, because it’s Tuesday…
Today has been a good day. In actuality, this week has been a really good one. I was very fretful going into Monday because this week had the potential to blow up in my face. I had my first advising appointment Monday morning at AUM and I was really worried about what news or information I would or would not receive. So far so good. I was really late registering and applying for financial aid which was stupid on my part, but everything has worked out splendidly. Thank God. Not only did my financial aid come through, but I was able to schedule my classes in the most effective way possible. I got all of my classes in on two days and even better, the two days I wanted. Even better than that…no math classes this semester.

Sleeping continues to be an issue. This has got to be rectified soon. I can’t go much longer on 3-4 hours a night.

At this present time I am hanging out in Starbucks drinking my usual Soy Latte, blogging, and listening to This American Life. My yuppiness startles me.

Channing started back to school today and I am hoping that this return to her typical routine will help all of the Martin clan get back on schedule. We have struggled to get back into pre-Christmas form. Why is it so hard to maintain normalcy?

We started a new study this past week on the church and how the body of Christ is so much more than a building and programs. I hope during this month our students will gain an intimate understanding of what the church is truly meant to be. We get so hung up in programs and events that we miss the reason we gather together in the first place.

Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much. 1 Corinthians 8:2 NLT
We looked at this verse last week and it has stayed with me since. Pride is an area I struggle with (among many others), and I have adopted this verse as a call to humility.

The new Kings of Leon album, Only by the Night, is super fantastic. Go buy it now. “Be Somebody” is my favorite song in years.

LOST in 15 days!!! I absolutely can not wait. It is going to be a huge challenge to top last season, but I have high hopes for what should be the season that brings it all together. FTW!!

Random thought: Why do text books cost so much? I mean, seriously. Four hundred dollars for books you will read (or not read) for four months? This is ludicrous.

That’s all I have for this lovely Tuesday. I hope you all have a great day.
Peace.

I am glad you got your school stuff all worked out. Good luck on that! Also I am so with you on the excitement about ‘no math this semester’, only I’m screwed because my Quantitative Decision Making class is pretty much ALL math (cost benefit analysis, etc…)…If math were a location, I wouldn’t be able to find my way out with a map, a compass, one of those flashlights that you crank so it doesn’t need batteries, and a Powhatan Indian guide. Yeah I suck at math.
Have you considered decreasing your caffeine intake (GASP…I know I can’t believe I said it either) to help with your sleeping. I have always been one of those that says “caffeine doesn’t keep me awake” but the truth is sometimes it does.
It’s funny you mention the caffeine. I had actually been on somewhat of a coffee fast, but have been drinking a lot more lately. I thought it was just stress, but you may have a point.
I have never liked math or anything that involves math. I like subjects where all you have to do is remember things and you are good at it (i.e. history, geography). Death to math!
