doing good.... How 'bout you?

I'm doing great and I feel healthy....

I have finally arrived on a topic for my senior research paper. The ethical and legal issues surrounding withholding treatment from severely handicapped newborns.

Enjoy the snow; don't get stuck.

More winter?

Well, I guess we are doomed for six more weeks of winter because Punxsutawney Phil is scared of his shadow, along with a majority of three-year-olds. In my opinion he is losing a lot of his credibility because it's the same prediction every year. Eventually, no one will pay attention to him.

I haven't done too much this week. I just continue to memorize the countries, major cities, and physical features of different continents for geography class.

I had an excellent dinner last night, because Ben made a very tasty beef Wellington, and Dr. Couser (a Bible professor here at Cedarville) was able to join us, and impart wisdom. It was a great reminder that I need to continually step up and take responsibility for my actions and growth forward in life, without excuses or procrastinating. In our culture, we are surrounded by full-grown children, who desire to act like boys rather than be men.

January

Hello again!

I feel great and think that whatever health bug I had seems to now be gone. The Romans and Galatians class I was telling you all about is as exciting as I was hoping it to be. I hope that I'm going to learn a lot, the class is going to be very beneficial. One example is when Paul mentioned that he would be all things to all men, he didn't say this meaning to be a compromise of his values in order to present the gospel in a way that would seem more attractive to certain types of people.

Some friends and I went to the Cedarville men's basketball game last night. The team Cedarville played was ranked #2 in the division. Cedarville won the game in the last few seconds. They won in dramatic fashion, it was heart pounding. I thought the other team would score and Cedarville would lose, but no such fate. Walsh packed up the sorry train and headed for no where.

I probably should have given a continuing update because my last report left you with: "...I've checked my oxygen saturation percentage. It is on the low side but I can still breathe." That was possibly a bit too dramatic. I think I should've said, "I can breathe okay, even though my oxygen saturation percentage is on the low side."

I felt the most congested Saturday, and now I can tell I'm almost fine.

So what's in the news...

Congratulations to Senator Brown of Massachusetts. Republicans stave off the health care bill for a bit longer. History's most expensive Band-Aid and cosmetic surgery will need to wait.

2nd week

The second week of my final Cedarville semester is wrapping up. This week is not finishing exactly how I would like, because yesterday and today I have felt some chest congestion, and this has brought a slight cough. Not too bad though, I've checked my oxygen saturation percentage. It is on the low side but I can still breathe. I do ask for your prayers because I would rather not get sick. When I am sick I feel tired and simply have a hard time functioning as myself. I want this last semester to be great. I want to finish strong.

hmm

I like Tootsie Rolls.

I've been staring at this page for a few minutes now, not knowing what I should write. So that's what I came up with. The fact that I like Tootsie Rolls.

Once I start talking sometimes I start thinking. Chapel was fantastic this morning. God's grace is sufficient. He makes the first move in our lives and also ensures our completion.

New Semester

I am back at Cedarville for the semester. I have a geography class and my senior Pre-Law research project. This is my last semester and it really is mixed emotions. It's great to think about graduating. We all know it has been a long road coming back to Cedarville. However, I've been at Cedarville for pretty much the last six years, and it's going to be a major adjustment not to be here.
