What an excellent weekend.
It started on Friday - my Spanish presentation on Aztecs went well (despite the 12-14 letter names O.o ) and I time to watch some Veggie Tales before I had to leave for Fall Retreat. I love Veggie Tales :D
I was going to make lasagna for the people going on Fall Retreat so I went out at 3.30 on Friday. Pastor Lana, Ella and I made the lasagna and by the time everyone else was there the pasta just had to bake so we went on a walk around the campgrounds. It was a pretty big area, and Liz and I found a spot where there was a valley and ridge - it was beautiful. After dinner (I got a lot of compliments on the lasagna :D ) we had some improv time. That was pretty entertaining, it was like Whose Line is it Anyway? :]
Then we went out to a campfire for devotion time. I like fire :D After the devotion, a group stayed outside and sang some songs with an acoustic guitar - that was really neat.
On Saturday I woke up an hour before breakfast was going to be served, so I went for a walk back to the ridge overlooking the valley. I'm not sure if it was raining or water was just falling from tree to tree, but it was really peaceful.
As part of getting the reduced rate we did, we were going to help them out getting the camp ready for another season. A few people helped demo bunk beds and bikes, the rest of us formed a line to sort the rotten firewood from the good and pass it all from one stack to a covered pile. I was one of the ones stacking the logs under the lean-to. The guy that normally does it said we were doing well :]
After lunch, we went to a climbing wall. That was lots of fun, especially when I was shaking once back on the ground... Julia, a freshman, said the quote for my title, and I enjoyed it :D
Once we were done, it was back to Purdue. I'd planned on staying in all night, but then I remembered that I had to get groceries. The nice thing about Marsh is college students get 10% off if we shop on Saturdays :D And once I got back, Jake asked if I could play bass Sunday morning - apparently their bassist backed out right before the rehersal on Saturday night. So today I left for First Church at 7.30 am and just got back (to stay) 40 min ago at 9 pm. It's been a long day.
But it's been fun :] I really liked the songs we played at First Church this morning. Then, right after service, I went to Hicks underground library to study statistics with some people in my class. We have an exam on Wednesday and we get a cheat sheet, so I got that written up. From the library, I went to Wesley to practice for that service.
And it wasn't the best practice ever, I couldn't even hear myself for the vast majority of the time because no one was there to do the sound. Then I had to transpose (change the chords into a different key) two songs because they were supposed to be capo'd (that clip thing on guitars that people sometimes put on their fingerboards). Nicole, Kyle Gonzales, Mason and Chris got there so I showed them around the church and they stayed for service.
Unfortunately, about a verse into the first song I discovered that I had transposed the cong wrong, and then the next song was capo'd and I hadn't known so I was transposing on the fly. It was an interesting set...
The service was good, though, and dinner was fun with the visitors. It was really good to see them again :D We went back to Aldersgate quickly before I was going to play Ultimate with Wesley so I said bye and got changed quickly to head out with Kyle (Hoos. I know so many Kyles).
That was quite the fun game(s) of Ultimate :] It was kinda sprinkling as we arrived, but about a point into the second game it really started raining. The ground got slick and the frisbee even slicker, but I didn't actually go down like I did on Thursday.
I finally got back to Aldersgate to stay at 9 and I immediately changed into some warm, dry clothes. I was rather wet :]
It really was an awesome weekend overall. Now I have to shift gears and take a Spanish test tomorrow. Good thing I've got time to study tomorrow :D
Peace.

I need to learn how to really throw a frisbee
Another pretty normal (as much as the word can be applied to anything in my life... ;] ) week.
Tuesday has become my Day at Wesley. I go over after class and eat my lunch - whether I've brought it or get it from the kitchen at Wesley. I meet in the covenant group after lunch, and then I just relax until the Winterization Crew meeting at 6 pm. It's pretty nice :]
Wednesday was Firefly night again, and I was reading before the rest of the guys got up there to start this week's episode. I think I'm just blowing their minds with how fast I read. I was on the second book of a trilogy last week, and I think they were expecting me to be on the next book. Well, I'm on the second book of another series - it was funny to watch their reactions :D
Today I had Linear Algebra - and I remember how much I disliked proofs in Geometry back in freshman year of high school. This class is too theoretical for me - I just want to play with numbers :D But after class I came back to Aldersgate and did some homework, since I know that I'm not going to be doing any this weekend. Then Jayne (my badminton partner from last year) asked if I wanted to go to the Intercollegiate Badminton Tournament - they needed more girls to make a team. So On October 14-16 I'll be at Ohio State (I apologize - THE Ohio State ;] ). I've never actually been there, so this should be fun.
We had our house meeting/dinner today, and then I decided that I wanted to play Ultimate with the Wesley people - I wanted to do something active today. That was a lot of fun, especially since the grass was all wet :D I was going to switch over and play with the flag football team, but I wasn't told I would need my ID so I didn't have it which meant I couldn't play. I just switched back over to Ultimate and kept playing with them. I had two pretty sweet catches - one was on the run so I slid and went down and the other was off a tip and my reflexes just made me gather the frisbee to me. However, the one I'm going to be feeling tomorrw was when I slid and my legs went opposite directions. I think I managed to bash my knee - I can feel a bruise forming. That should be fun tomorrow...
Speaking of tomorrow, I'm going to be presenting the history and religion of the Aztecs to my Spanish class - My partner and I have 8 minutes so 4 minutes each, and I think all of my 4 minutes will be spent trying to pronounce some of those names... Most of the gods have 12 letter names, with a couple that are 14 and two or three with under 10 letters.
Then I'm going to be spearheading the crew leaving early to get to the camp and start making dinner. At least we're leaving at 3.30 or so, which means I'll have time to get everything ready after my last class ends at 12.30 :]
Yay Fall Retreat! It'll be nice to take a day off. On Saturday we get to tear down some of the cabins and then I'm going to bike back with either Pastor Glen or Dale, whichever isn't going to drive the First Church bus :] It'll be a 19 mile ride, so thet should be a nice ride.
And then Nicole and Kyle and Mason are going to come over, though I don't know when they think they're going to arrive. I guess we'll see :] It'll be awesome to see them again. And after seeing them, I get to study statistics and play bass for worship. I'm excited for the weekend to start!
Peace.

Time to start saving my pennies
Yay for good weekends :D
My mom got down here on Friday and we went shopping - what else would we do? :] Aldersgate also hosted Wesley's Friday Fellowship - we had a cookout here. That was yummy, Andrew is a good griller.
Then it was badminton time. We played two pretty good games and Melissa came to watch us. after the second game, we all went to the hotel and they both got some wine while I had a lemonade. Then, in the room, my phone went off - and my text ringtone is 'Dobby's sock' from Potter Puppet Pals (3.23 mark). My mom and I knew what it was, but evidently Melissa had never heard it (I could've sworn she had before, but maybe not). So she starts looking all around and thinking she had purse-dialed someone who was trying to get her attention. Well, the look on her face was rather funny, so my mom and I started laughing. Unfortunately, I had just taken a sip of lemonade, so when I started laughing it got caught in my throat and I couldn't breathe. So that was fun.
The next day, my dad and brother came down as well and I got a new shower head :D Now my showers won't be quite so painful!
The game was a fun one (for me anyway :D ). I don't think we'll play like that against any Big 10 teams, so it was fun to see us score like mad against someone. Hopefully this week's bye won't throw off the momentum for Notre Dame.
We all went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner - that was yummy :D I hadn't been there in a while.
And then everyone left and I was back to my routine. Jake had asked me to play bass (guuiar) at First Church - their bassist wasn't going to be there. The rehersal was at 8.30 and service at 11. I'd never actually gone to First Church before - I never wake up in time :] So on Sunday I woke up at 6.30 (an hour before I'd planned to wake up O.o) after a weird dream and with my back hurting. It wasn't the best start to the day. It wound up being really fun though - the Wired band is a fun group. And I need to remember to ask Jake how much his bass was - I want one. Unfortunately, I also want a Kindle so that's probably going to come first.
Because my back hurt, I didn't actually make it to the Hunger Hike. I asked someone to turn in the money I'd gotten and took a nap. That really helped.
And then today it was rainy and gray outside - at least it was warm still. I had $5 to Starbucks, and decided that today was a perfect day to use it. For future reference, the pumpkin cream cheese muffin from Starbucks is rather good :D I've had quite a few pumpkin flavored things recently, I think I like it now. I know I didn't before.
Because we scored 8 touchdowns on Saturday, it was 40% off at University Book Store. I got a magnet for my car (my windows are blacked out so I couldn't do a window decal) and some really comfy yoga pants that I'm wearing right now :D I was lucky to find the pants though, I went in there at 3.30 and the racks were pretty much cleaned out.
This weekend is the Wesley Fall Retreat - we go Friday afternoon to Saturday afternoon at a camp-type place. I'm excited, I didn't go last year. Then I'm going to study Stat with some people and play bass for Wesley, and then hopefully I'll be able to see Nicole Cihock, Kyle Gonzales and Mason Jenkins for a bit in the evening :]
As a point of clarification, I mentioned in my last post that I didn't want to throw Sirius out of a window (or something similar). Sirius is my laptop - don't worry, I'm not throwing people out of windows (yet ;D).
And to close, I would just like to say one more thing:
Your Mother is a *****ing******lorem ipsum****** admiumvenium*****turolagulio******Hippopautamus***** Rebublican***** and Daniel Radcliffe***** With a Bucket of********* And a Castle Far Away Where No One Can Here You *******Soup****** With a Bucket of******** Mickey Mouse**** and A Stick of Dynamite*******Magical***** Alakazam!!!!!!!!!!

Possum count: 6
I really cannot wait for it to be the weekend.
This week started out pretty good. I went through my Purdue email account and cleaned it out. I went from 401 emails to 47 - I had a lot of old, unnecesary stuff :]
Also on Monday, I ordered a new book :D I got an email from Barnes and Noble saying that there was a big half off sale, plus I could get free express shipping if I used a mastercard. Well, this was just too good of an offer to pass up, so I went shopping online. I want to read One Day by David Nichols, but that one wasn't on sale so I got The Hunger Games for $4.50 and it should come in by tomorrow. Free express shipping is rather nice :D
Then Tuesday was Wesley night again. I'm on the Supplies team for Winterization so at the meeting we decided to take inventory of all the supplies in the Dungeon (the basement). By the way, if you ever want to see the largest collection of rakes you've ever seen in your life then come to Wesley - we have 230.
Then it was time for bible study. However, Corey, the Disciple student leader, wasn't going to be there so we didn't have Disciple. Then Mariah, who leads a justice bible study, wasn't there either so a bunch of us 'refugees' from those groups got together and held our own bible study - which, ironically enough, was about refugees and pilgrims in Hebrews. That was pretty fun, there were five of us and we each had a different version of the Bible so we all read a verse and a half aloud to hear the differences.
And then Wednesday came along.
It started off okay, but then I had a Stat lab and I just could not get the stupid program to work. I was also realizing how much I had to do within the next two days, and the list was getting longer and longer as I thought about it. I was getting pretty close to freak-out mode, but then I went to Wesley between classes (like usual) and Pastor Glen offered up Jake to fix whatever problems I was having, and Jake said that was part of his job as the Wesley intern. That made me smile, which was good. I'm truely thankful to have Wesley Foundation in my life.
When I got back to my room, I tried working with the program again and eventually, I had to take a few breaks so I didn't throw Siruis out my window, I got the lab done. I celebrated with the canteloupe in my refridgerator (which was really good, and now I need more) and the Star Wars book I was on last night (it's a different one this morning). After a Club Sports Presidents and Treasurers meeting (where I got to learn how to be a treasurer, even though I've been doing this since last March...), I watched Firefly with a bunch of people in the house. Firefly is a show that was on the SciFi channel, and I kinda came acoss the Firefly Night by accident last week but I enjoyed it so I'm planning on continuing to watch.
And then today started out fairly okay, I still had quite a bit to do. I've been listening to the Star Wars soundtracks all day, though, so that's kept me sane.
For Spanish, I'm researching the Aztecs and their history and religion. While reading their creation story, this part jumped out at me: (the gods had to sacrifice temselves to become the sun for the earth)
So we have a possum infiltration, apparently. Andrew has caught 6 in the trap in the basement, and then there was one on the second floor last night. I was reading my book in bed when I heard what sounded like something falling off of a shelf. Confused, I looked around my room but nothing had fallen so I shrugged and went back to my book. Then a little while later, I heard people hitting doors and walls. Really confused now, I guessed they either really wanted to get someone's attention or were messing with someone trying to sleep. But then I heard Ben say 'How did it get up here?' and it clicked - the thing I'd heard was a possum and the loud noises were the guys catching it. I got up and opened my door to find Kyle reloading his nerf gun - they had had it trapped and he had been shooting it to get it to run into the cardboard box so they could take it outside.
We can't have pets here, so a few people (namely Patrick) have said that we should just start keeping all the possums and training them :] And then Michael said that he would just trap them to use for his weekly dinner. I said I was really glad I'm a vegetarian :D We're having a house meeting with Pastor Glen and Pastor Lana on Monday to get things figured out.
Tomorrow my mommy comes down to see me! Yay!
Peace.

The proud god Tecuciztecatl offered himself, but the other gods preferred the humble Nanahuatzin. A great fire was built, but Tecuciztecatl was too afraid at the last minute to jump in. Nanahuatzin did jump. Filled with jealousy, Tecuciztecatl jumped after, followed by a brave eagle and jaguar.A rabbit! I started laughing when I read that, I couldn't get over it. Of all the things to throw in his face, a rabbit?
Two suns began to rise in the east. It was too bright - the gods threw a rabbit into the face of Tecuciztecatl to dim the light, and he became the moon.

Never Forgotten
We'll start with yesterday.
It was so much fun! Colleen and I drove down to Fortville, where she lives, and hung at her house for a while. It was fun to hang with her again, and it was nice to see her mom again.
Then came the concert. Blink 182 was headlining, and My Chemical Romance played before them. I know all of four MCR songs, and they played them all :D Unfortunately, I forgot my camera :[
Blink 182 is one of my favorite bands, so it was nothing short of amazing to be able to see them live. They're one of Colleen's favorites too, so we were singing along with all the songs. It was so much fun!
And so loud. At the end of the concert, I could feel my voice rapidly disappearing so I wasn't expecting to be able to talk at all today. Considering that, I was rather surprised when I was totally fine today. My guess was thet the smoke destroyed my voice last night, so once I got to the fresh air I was ok again.
Ten years ago today, I was in fourth grade. Mr Gowler turned on the radio in the room and that's how we learned about the attacks. The most I remember from that day was a lasting profound sense of confusion. When we first heard the radio, I was confused as to what was going on - it was hard to understand in the classroom. Then, when I understood, I was confused as to why. I'd never known war - unfortunately now it's pretty much all I have known. I know that My dad had been flying, so I was scared for him. Then they showed the video of people jumping out of the buildings, and that scared me too. My sense of curiosity was clashing with that fear, though, because I wanted to know all about what had happened so I kept watching what they were showing.
And that's all I really remember from that day. My mom has told stories about how she hadn't sent lunch with me and my brother so we got to get out of the school. She's also told how my brother asked her to turn off the news after a while because they just kept showing everything on repeat. My dad has told stories about how the people on the plane were claiming that the military was shooting down any planes still in the sky and that a million people had died.
The main thing I remember was wanting to know how someone could do this - to hurt so many innocent people.
Today, I played violin with Amanda in church - we had a hymn filled service because there wouldn't've been enough people for a praise band (by the way, I didn't know that America the Beautiful was a hymn...). After service and supper, five of us went to an Interfaith Rememberance Service in Lafayette. That was really neat, to see everyone coming together like that, but one thing that really sticks with me is what the Islamic speaker said. He was talking about the religious fanatics, and he said that there is no religion where it preaches to kill even one innocent person. Another woman was quoting the Bahá'i founder and said that anyone who claims to be religious through terror is not Godly - he is in the religion of terror.
So yes, that was a pretty cool thing to go see. And now we go back to our daily lives. I have homework due tomorrow so I need to pack my lunch to stay on campus to work on it. And then my mom is going to be here this Friday! :D :D
This Sunday (a week from today) is the Lafayette Hunger Hike. It's a 2 mile walk or 5k run and is to raise money for the area food banks and pantries. I'm planning on participating, so if you feel inclined to donate in any way shape or form, just let me know. Thanks :]
Peace.

Considering that, I was rather surprised when I was totally fine today. My guess was thet the smoke destroyed my voice last night, so once I got to the fresh air I was ok again.
Ten years ago today, I was in fourth grade. Mr Gowler turned on the radio in the room and that's how we learned about the attacks. The most I remember from that day was a lasting profound sense of confusion. When we first heard the radio, I was confused as to what was going on - it was hard to understand in the classroom. Then, when I understood, I was confused as to why. I'd never known war - unfortunately now it's pretty much all I have known. I know that My dad had been flying, so I was scared for him. Then they showed the video of people jumping out of the buildings, and that scared me too. My sense of curiosity was clashing with that fear, though, because I wanted to know all about what had happened so I kept watching what they were showing.
And that's all I really remember from that day. My mom has told stories about how she hadn't sent lunch with me and my brother so we got to get out of the school. She's also told how my brother asked her to turn off the news after a while because they just kept showing everything on repeat. My dad has told stories about how the people on the plane were claiming that the military was shooting down any planes still in the sky and that a million people had died.
The main thing I remember was wanting to know how someone could do this - to hurt so many innocent people.
Today, I played violin with Amanda in church - we had a hymn filled service because there wouldn't've been enough people for a praise band (by the way, I didn't know that America the Beautiful was a hymn...). After service and supper, five of us went to an Interfaith Rememberance Service in Lafayette. That was really neat, to see everyone coming together like that, but one thing that really sticks with me is what the Islamic speaker said. He was talking about the religious fanatics, and he said that there is no religion where it preaches to kill even one innocent person. Another woman was quoting the Bahá'i founder and said that anyone who claims to be religious through terror is not Godly - he is in the religion of terror.
So yes, that was a pretty cool thing to go see. And now we go back to our daily lives. I have homework due tomorrow so I need to pack my lunch to stay on campus to work on it. And then my mom is going to be here this Friday! :D :D
This Sunday (a week from today) is the Lafayette Hunger Hike. It's a 2 mile walk or 5k run and is to raise money for the area food banks and pantries. I'm planning on participating, so if you feel inclined to donate in any way shape or form, just let me know. Thanks :]
Peace.

I look like a leper O.o
I do - my sunburn is peeling like mad and it looks like I have some sort of skin disease.
By the way, Dad, of all the genes you could have passed on to me, the one that makes me pick and peel at anything and everything on my skin is not the one I would've chosen...
But anyway, it's been a pretty uneventful week. Overall.
I ran out of books, so I was playing on the PS2 for a bit when I had no homework.
And then I realized that I wouldn't have a weekend so I spent Wednesday pretty much entirely at Wesley to work on stuff. And it's going to be a late night again tonight. Oh well, I can sleep tomorrow.
While watching Star Wars with Kyle, he recommended some of the Star Wars book to me - he's read them all, literally - so I went to the library on Tuesday. I got the first 2 in a trilogy and I'm about half way through the second :D I'm enjoying them too - I'm glad that I have him as a resource. I've wanted to read them for a while but I never knew which to read.
And after seing the first half of the Saints/Packers game, I decided to just read them some more rather than get more and more frustrated with the game. That wasn't the best defensive first half I've ever seen, on either side.
Oh, and then there was a man in a kilt standing on something outside of Class of 50 (lecture hall) and shouting, so that was interesting :] I also tried dying my hair with some blue streaks today - my hair's too dark so I'm hoping it'll bleach like the red did last year so I can redo it and have it actually be blue.
I also went grocery shopping today, and I found the fake meat section. I'm having lasagna and mashed potatoes for dinner sometime next week :D
Wow, this is a really short entry, especially compared to the last couple. But it was a rather mediocre week, so that's to be expected. I just can't wait for tomorrow - Blink 182 concert with Colleen! I'm excited :D And then next weekend is family weekend! By the way, mom, I've already got a list of things I would like you to bring - I'll let you know when it gets closer :]
Peace.

And now it's time for an aloe bath
What a weekend.
It started on Friday night - Wesley has this thing called Friday Fellowship where people get together on Friday evenings for various activities. Last Friday was game night at Aldersgate. A group of people wanted to play this game called Bang - it's like a roleplaying card game. It was a lot of fun :D The group of us played 3 games before it got too late.
Saturday morning was the bike ride with Pastor Glen and Dale. That was a good ride. And it was a lot cooler than it would have been if we had gone out on Thursday, so that was nice :]
Then it was Football Time! I was standing with Andrew and Ben from the house and some of Andrew's friends, and we saw some other people across the aisle as well as Jake joining us after halftime. It was a fun game :D We were playing Middle Tennessee State University, and it was a pretty close game throughout the entire time. The fourth quarter was when most of the action happened. Our last touchdown was one of the best things I've ever seen - TerBush (our 5th different starting quarterback this calendar year, by the way) handed it off and Shavers just ran right through the mass o' people at the line of scrimmage and scores a touchdown. And then, when Middle Tennessee was going for the field goal to tie, we blocked it! It was so much fun. And it's nice to know that we can stick in there and come out on top of these close games - last year that didn't work out so well for us.
And it was so bloody hot! The high yesterday was supposed to be 95, but I think it was warmer than that. In the second half, there were some times when the students were cheering because a cloud had given us some shade. Just before halftime, I went to get a water bottle and I think I bought the last one in the stadium, for the time being. They got some more later, but they were going through them like mad. I really wonder how many ambulances and stretchers they went through - they had them all ready at the doors.
The band wasn't wearing their normal uniforms, which I thought an excellent decision on the part of the director - they would have been dropping like flies before they even go to do the halftime show.
The stadium wasn't very full, which was probably a combination of the heat and the fact that it's Labor Day Weekend. That meant that the student section wasn't very full either so all the sunlight was bouncing around the empty seats and I got fried. I also lost my sunglasses somewhere, but that's ok, the game was definitely worth it :]
After the game, Andrew invited us to join his parents tailgating. That was nice too, just relaxing after the game. His parents are really nice, they apologised for not having very much vegetarian things and promised to bring something if I joined them again.
It was around 7 once we got back to the house. Boise State and Georgia were playing at 8, as well as LSU and Oregon. Andrew, Ben and I were thinking about going over to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch them but Andrew went to see a friend and disappeared so Ben and I watched the games here with Kyle and ordered a pizza. That was entertaining, watching with them. The LSU/Oregon game started out pretty sloppy (and by 'pretty', I mean 'extremely') on both sides, so Kyle was saying that all the players should get penalties for being idiots and I was just laughing at what was going on in the game. There was one play where Oregon threw an interception, and then the next play was almost an interception in the other direction - I was cracking up. The Oregon almost interception was a play where the LSU QB threw it behind the receiver and the Oregon player caught it, rolled on the ground and got back up to run it into the endzone. They reviewed it and saw that the ball hit the ground before the guy caught it, but Kyle was saying that he should get pentalized because he would've been down anyway and yet he still got up and ran up the field.
So, yes, Saturday was a good day :D
Now, as a comparison, the high for Sunday was 75. Amazing what a difference 24 hours can make.
It was really nice on Sunday, and I got to play bass with the praise band for service. I haven't played bass since Grease, so it was nice to play again.
After service, Spike was showing the original Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back. Kyle, Ben and I were watching and Catherine joined us for a bit. That was really fun - it's been a while since I watched them. We were talking about the changes that were made for the BluRay versions coming out. The only reason I have a Twitter is to follow Lord Voldemort and the Death Star PR department - and the DSPR team is bloody hilarious. See this link for more info on the changes (and some entertainment :D ). If you watch the video in that post, watch some of the others it links to - Ewoks blink now and Obi-Won makes a sound like Walrus Man barfing to scare off tuscan raiders.
Side note - the best insult ever: 'You stuck up, half-witted, scruffy-looking, nerf herder!' :D
Then it was 55 degrees outside when I woke up today for the canoe trip. I wore sweatpants, intending to take them off to canoe, but I wound up wishing I'd worn a long sleeve shirt as well. Once we got out in the canoes it wasn't too bad, but it was still kinda cool. By the last stop we made on our 3 mile canoe trip, it was actually pretty nice so people were swimming and playing frisbee in the water (there were people from UofI and EIU Wesley foundations, so we had like 50 canoes). After canoeing (and changing out of various wet clothes), we ate a snack and went for a hike. That was really cool - a group of 8 Purdue people (myself included) decided that we didn't want to wait in line to walk down the steps to the trail that everyone else was walking, so we went our own way. And that was cool - we were climbing on rocks and straying off the more beaten path. Eventually, four of them were walking faster so the other four of us made our own group so we could walk more slowly and enjoy looking around. And when we were walking back, we were walking with Pastor Glen and his son Isaiah retracing the path most of the group had taken out. And I liked our way out better - the way back was less rugged.
After hiking, we split up from the IL schools and we went to Crawfordsville (south of Lafayette) for dinner - to the home church of one of the Purdue group. It was nice to relax a bit, though I discovered that I somehow managed to cut my middle finger about a quarter of an inch above the bottom knuckle - like right next to where my finger meets my palm. I'm really curious how I managed to pull that off - whenever I needed to hold onto something, I used my palm or fingertips. It was stinging, and I think it's going to bruise, so I washed it out and put a bandaid on (by the way - definitely one of the more awkward places to put a bandaid, I had some trouble at first).
On the way back, we stopped for ice cream and there was a playground. That was exciting :D There was also a watertower that we wanted to climb, but it didn't look like the ladder would support us very well and someone thought it was against the law so we decided against that.
Such a fun day. What isn't fun is all the homework I'm going to have to do since I've been putting it off all weekend...
May the Force be with you.

There's a reason October is my favorite month...
Happy Friday :D This week's been a pretty good week.
Tuesdays are the other night that Wesley operates - they have bible studies and devotion and communion. Last Tuesday, they also had the Winterization crew callout.
Winterization is a huge service project that Wesley organizes and it's where about 500 volunteers from all over campus go to homes of the elderly in the Greater Lafayette area and help the owners 'Winterize' their houses - basically it's a lot of raking and cleaning windows. I volunteered last year, and this year I'm going to help set it up - either mapping out the homes volunteers are being sent to and/or registering everyone when they show up that morning.
After that meeting was the bible study I'm doing - Disciple. It's a 3 semester bible study - I'm excited. We took a break halfway through to sing some songs with everyone else (all the other bible studies start at 8) and it was back to Disciple. After everyone was done, we all gathered again to sing some more and hear a devotion.
The Wesley building has some appartments that people can live in, and one of the residents is Mario. It was his birthday on Tuesday, so he did a birthday devotion and we all took communion. It was all pretty fun, albeit busy. My Tuesday evenings are going to be spent entirely at Wesley from 6-10 until Winterization, then it'll just be 7-10 :] I'm excited for it though - should be lots of fun.
Then we had a short orchestra rehersal on Wednesday - an area orchestra needed the band room to have their rehersal - so Kappa Kappa Psi (a band and orchestra co-op service fraternity) had a cookout for whoever wanted food. It was Andy's (our conductor) birthday, so we all sang to him then. The look on his face was hilarious when we started - just a look of 'there they go' resignation.
Thinking of KKΨ, I wanted to rush last year but wasn't sure if it was band and orchestra or just band. While talking with some of the brothers on Wednesday, they said that orchestra was accepted too - and they seemed like they kinda wanted some orchestra members instead of all band geeks - so I think I might rush this year. We'll see what happens come January.
And now thinking of bands, it's been in the upper 90s all this week - and the marching band has gone out and practiced every day on their asphalt practice field. I commend them - it's really bloody hot. What's even better, my room has no AC - my fan hasn't been turned off since Wednesday morning. The nice thing is it's pointed right at me when I'm sitting at my desk, so that's good. The unfortunate thing is that means it's not pointed at me when I'm sleeping so I have a minor heatstroke when I'm in bed. And if you were wondering what the title means, October is my favorite month and fall is my favorite season for many reasons, but the foremost right now is that I would love it if it were 20-30 degrees cooler and stayed that way until winter.
Pastor Glen and I had planned to go on a bike ride yesterday, but it was really warm (for the house dinner, five of us had some sort of sleeveless shirt on and Ben was joking about calling Domestic Services claiming that we were being abused because we didn't have any AC) and he had things to do, so it was postponed till tomorrow morning. Then other people wanted to join or hike, so we turned it into an Alternative Breakfast Club (I'll explain the term in a moment) like the adventure we had last week. I'm excited :]
Ok, Breakfast Club is a tradition we have at Purdue. Basically, everyone who's 21 gets dressed up in some sort of costume (anything from Coach Hope to the rival coach to Bert and Ernie to a Care Bear) and go to the bars before the game. And by before, I mean they're there by 7 or so in order to have enough time to drink before the game (which is at noon). And then most of them go to the game (still hammered) so that makes the student section an interesting place to be :D I'm just excited for the football season to start up - our first game is tomorrow!
Boiler Up!
