Funny Times

Let 'em roll, in my opinion. If being scared by Dr. Bob and watching your best friend almost fall into the fountain during the Lighting Ceremony isn't funny, then I don't know what is. Kudos to Robbie for saving Kat from the freezing landing.

Today I just considered myself really blessed. And it wasn't an unusual day, by any means.

You know, work at 7 a.m. and my getting-me-up-and-to-breakfast buddy wasn't ready so we missed the meal altogether, slicing all morning and getting to society to vote for officers that I don't even recognize.

Then seeing my advisor who doesn't know my name and getting the schedule that only I understand approved (Yay!) and getting the choices for my minor narrowed down to History or English. (Another blessing, as I've been agonizing for months about it.)

Next, taking a child psychology test that utterly didn't go well, to taking a nap with Karen for a glorious hour!!!! (and another ! for good measure). Watching a movie in Principles of Communication that was so outdated it gave us all a much-needed laugh. (Did you know that the guy on the Price is Right looks the same now as he did during the Reagan administration? Scary.)

Then rushing to French class, to discover that I got the first A- on a quiz all semester, and I hardly even studied at all, because of the time crunch that day, to singing French Christmas carols at the end of class. Then getting back to the dorm and receiving an email from my mother about an additional $50 that Toshiba forgot to refund me initially, and knowing it will just cover my cellphone bill!

And then a work party right after the Lighting Ceremony where I got to eat homemade food. And then arriving back in the dorm to be tackled by three of the best hobbits in the world because they missed me horribly while I was gone for two and a half hours.

Amazing. Amazing how God works.

And did I mention the mint coughdrops Uber gave me? All she had, and it happened to be my favorite kind. WHAT a blessing!
