First Round

Well... we survived round one... at least the performance part. I'll let you know if we actually pass to round two (though I'm thinking we will). It was a slightly terrifying experience, yet fun... but mostly boring in the middle. There were 30 different people/ groups trying out. Some were good, some were not so good. CareyAnn and I got the audience going with our rocking guitar playing and cute smiling faces ;-) but we did happen to forget the third verse. We will be practicing a lot this week to make sure that doesn't happen next time!

Saturday night we had a potluck at the pastor's house while he was away visiting Canada. This was great fun! Then I stayed until 4 am chatting with two other friends while everyone else went home at 11pm. I guess I've been craving some good conversation. It continued the next day after we went to church, we went back to the pastor's house for more hang out. Fun!

This brings me to another valid point... I've been daydreaming lately about getting a bigger apartment. I am satisfied with my little one room and it does the job. It is comfortable, however... it is impossible to entertain! I've been dreaming of a loft apartment that my friend's Jena and Alan had last time we were here. It's only about one mile away from where I currently live... which would be slightly annoying in the winter... I would probably have to get a taxi to school or just leave really early... (or get a car?) but the idea of having a space to entertain is SOoooooo appealing! I was thinking about it so much that I actually had to pray about it and just say... well God- I know that you could make it happen... if its your will, you know what I want! Though I am going to try to do a little bit of finagling in mentioning the idea to my school that I would be willing to pay a little rent for a nicer place... we'll see how things pan out.

I'm sincerely hoping to blog a little more these days. Especially with summer school coming up and I'll finish teaching at noon! (I hope). So... here goes!
