Life is Rich

It is absolutely freezing out today. But I love it. I love the day. Life is rich, and I love it.
It seems my light and joyful mood from yesterday has carried over. :)
Nothing specific has really happened, I just love life. Yesterday with the rain and Christmas music, and today with the ... I don't know ... existence of the day? It's just great. 

It probably helps that I had an exciting meet with my admissions advisor, Ken Pike, this morning. He emailed (kind of a '1 month in follow-up') and wanted to meet for coffee. So, I went to the little coffee shop on campus to meet him this morning and he definitely had forgotten and was meeting with another girl along with the other admissions advisor. But, it worked out okay that he met more with me and left the other two to themselves. When he asked me what school I graduated from and I told him that it was SCS, he told me that they were going there for a chapel on the 22 as guest speakers. So I lit up and said, "Can I COME?!?" and his reply was equally enthusiastic, "SURE!" So we went up to us office and talked about the logistics of it. He was grateful for my input into what our chapels are like and what I think would be best. And I also had the opportunity to tell him that our theme verse for Briercrest this year is the same as our theme verse for SCS. (Micah 6:8). So yea, everything was so perfect and I'm like 99% going -- and even giving like a 5-10 min. testimony type thing...just talking to the students about my year here so far. :) :) :) Aww, I miss my home school. In a good way.

Choir was also really great today. Learned some random worship songs, and then kept trucking along with our Christmas musical stuff. Soo good! My Pauline Epistles class was kind of frustrating, mostly because of the prof. He goes on so many bunny trails and it just seems like we're listening on to the goings on of his inner brain that consists of a bunch of unfinished thoughts. And he teaches in a way that makes us do the thinking. Which, I know, I know, is the sign of a good prof...it's just frustrating. 

But I'm not going to let that get my spirits down!!!! 

:D

I was also really confuddled when I saw that I had one follower. Most of my teachers are the same way. It's like all of the time, they just...spurt out whatever they're thinking, lol. It's hard to tell what's testable and what's not, but it's all a growing experience, lol.
