| | Well, even though I had one
request to leave my blog site pure and unadulterated by any postings, I
am finally going to develop this a little more (sorry Jonathan).
Greetings everyone from Hillsdale! (Go Chargers!) I am
settled in here and loving my classes. I have a busy
schedule--taking 7 classes--am reading, reading, reading, and soon will
be writing, writing, writing (5 papers due in September alone). I
have a darling little dorm room and am meeting some great people.
The girls in my hall are great and we are already feeling the
bond. We have started a hall Bible study and try to eat dinner
together every day, which is so nice, as it lends a family atmosphere
to our college existence. Most of them have gotten sick this
week, so I have been playing mom and doling out cough drops and health
advice while trying to keep myself from getting their germs.
Living in this dorm has been an adventure in itself. In the first
week we were here, we had a major plumbing issue (water backing up in
3rd floor pipes and flooding all the way down through the first-floor
lobby ceiling) and a fire scare (at 8:15 in the morning...in the
rain). But I love it. We have a great big beautiful lobby
and I love to study there. I sit in the window seat with the warm
fall breeze coming in through the window and read...Russell Kirk or the
Bible or even my Spanish book.
My living room...er, lobby
In the evenings, I curl up in my cozy chair in my room and read some
more. Sometimes I make myself a comforting bowl of Ramen noodles
or eat peanut butter straight out of the jar. I'm such a
bachelor. ;)
My little dorm room:
I hung all the pictures of flowers that my 1st-3rd grade Sunday school
kids gave me on my bulletin board, so I think of them often. I
miss all of you!
