The time has almost come.
I think the travesty of my time at Tyndale will be that I didn’t take advantage of an environment of learning. Somewhere around year 3 I learned how to do well without really learning anything (so I may have learned one thing…). This, I think is what Garber talks about in the Fabric of Faithfulness when he says that students “‘getting all A’s but flunking life’ is a possibility lurking around the corner of everyone’s life..”
One of the things that I am most looking forward to after graduating is learning.
Although my thesis has been great and I have learned a ton of interesting things– mostly that the authors of Scripture had some serious literary talent, that the history has a message, and that understanding life through personal wants/desires was part of the lowest point in Israel’s history– so how much of it should be part of my life?
The rough copy of the thesis has been handed back- one week until the final copy is due.
The Boys Next Door clinched a playoff spot.
OCCAA volleyball championship- I announced my official retirement in an emotional press conference – Canon 25 didn’t show up.
OCCAA basketball championship- M. Mackneer, Kyle and BIG BOY!- three peat baby! I would like to thank Nathan for some serious heckling- I feel like together we accounted for at least +7 tyndale points and -8 Redeemer points…
The conference is SOLD OUT! holy smokes.
Going to the Leaf/Sabres game with Ashley and the Boadways on Thursday….I’m nervous…its in Buffalo.
I saw Dave Arnold last weekend- woah- its been too long between visits.
Elections are coming– should be very interesting– no..I have decided not to run.
Spring Banquet with Bodner is coming up- Mar. 31
Concert….Robbie Seay Band, Chris Seay, Ginny Owens, Waterdeep, and…an artist named Rob Pepper– April 7th at Tyndale.
Oh..I friggin love my housemates– and I realize that’s a fairly girly thing to say but what can you do?…maybe the most fun I’ve had in a long time! Paul, can I have a cookie?…two?
Ah yes, the biggest decision of my life is coming… the fork in the road, which way to go? I applied to Eastern’s Graduate School in Pennsylvania (is that how you spell it?) to do an M.A. in International Development… so Lord… ?
four weeks and counting.
