So, since last Thursday, here's what's been going on...
On Friday, I went with Joe, Tripp, and Thomas to the First Friday Parade. The schedule I printed out 2 weeks earlier said it was at 5, but the parade was actually at 6. Strange. So we got there a bit early. I saw the Dulls with Monica and Teodora. We got to spend time making fun of all of the different cheers the sororities did (sorry Rach-love, some of the other groups had some very strange cheers. yours was good, and you also looked way hot...of course...). After the parade, I hurried home to get showered and ready to go. I had about 45 minutes to get ready in, and it's a miracle that I turned out so well as I did. Joe came over at 7:45 and we took a few pictures of ourselves (cause we looked good!). I had no idea where we were going, but it turned out that we were heading to the Liberty Hall Inn in Pendleton. It's a cute little cafe in a gorgeous old house. The food was wonderful. It was really sweet, because Joe was so worried that I'd like the place. After dinner, we went to Pendleton Elementary and played on the playground. Everyone loves playing like a kid every once in a while. It started raining very very hard, so we got fairly soaked. I went and changed my dress (hence the reason we look so mismatched in the second picture, which I think is the cutest picture ever), then we went over to Joe's and wired speakers for the party.
Saturday was the football game. I've got a lot of pictures of that, so I'm going to just post most of them at the end of this post. The game was way exciting. Clemson won, 54 to 6, against Florida Atlantic. After the game, Julie and I watched the Tennessee game, which was also an exciting game. I took about an hour nap, then it was time for the party at the Basement. Party was way fun. I got home at around 4. I got up and did some homework, then went to church. I lost my Bible, but I found it that night, wedged between my bed and the wall. Julie and Rachel and I had awesome devo time together on Sunday afternoon. It was great to get to spend the time talking and praying together. Monday was an OK day. Rachel and I went to Anderson and I got a new devo book. Then Julie and I walked perimeter before CSF. Joe made dinner after that. Yummy. Tuesday was long and uneventful. We had girls' bible study, then I went and watched Monica and Teodora for a few hours. Wednesday was class, then lots of homework, then church, then Joe and I went running and he solved a math problem for me. (yay!) Today, I went to class and all that jazz. I was almost late for my first class...ALMOST. Julie and I were supposed to go get running shoes, but she's grocery shopping and I'm trying to do homework, so that's not gonna happen. I got a card from my mommy and a card (hand drawn and painted, might I add) from my sissy, so that was pretty awesome. I'm going to eat lunch, then work on homework. Tonight, Joe and I will be working on the next chunk of Galatians. There's a soccer game tomorrow...that's all I've got.

orange is my favorite color...

Okay. Today is Monday, the fourth of September, 2006.

th-th-th-thursday

Today is Thursday, the 31st day of August, 2006. 122 days remain in the year.
Today's list of things to do reads as follows:
~get barrier passes for games
~thermo homework due tomorrow
~e-mail girls' bible study
~get notes back from 210
~work heat transfer problem
~run
~diff. eq. problems due monday

I am very glad I got the page-a-day calendar. It's not huge, but at least I have room to write all of my assignments however I want. And, I can make my grocery list. Classes are going well. I take it as a good sign that I enjoy going to my Thermo class and my Transport Phen. class. It could be because I love Dr. Skaar and Dr. Lickfield, but who knows.
Saturday, we went rafting on the Nantahala. I couldn't care less if I spelled that wrong. The first picture is of our boat headed toward the big falls thing... Brandon, Jenna, Lori, Joe, Julie and myself made an excellent team...
Right up to the point of the second picture, when we went down the falls backward/ sideways. It was pretty funny. In the middle of the picture, you can see my green life-vest sliding into the middle of the boat. I ended up on the floor of the boat. On the right, you can see Jenna being completely soaked by the bulk of the falls. Lovely, I know...
On Sunday, I went grocery shopping. It was quite successful as far as grocery shopping trips go. I am currently determined to get into shape for the Race for the Cure and eventually for the Cooper River Bridge Run. It would be my first 10k. Luckily, that one's not until March or April. Julie and I are getting new shoes next Thursday afternoon.
Joe is currently teaching/ reminding me how to play chess. It takes way too much thinking. But it's pretty fun. I find it exciting to be able to think out all the different possibilities from one move. Although it eventually makes my brain hurt. On the bright side, I'm gonna kick his butt one of these days... maybe.
Tomorrow is the First Friday Parade. I'm hoping that this year's parade won't be marred by the need to airlift someone to the hospital again. For those who don't know or don't remember, a little girl was run over last year and had to be airlifted out. But the helicopter was cool.
First game is Saturday against Florida Atlantic. If we lose, our football program should be abolished. First party is Saturday night..."Club Basement." Should be a blast.
I made a clock. I would like to share it with all of you, because I'm pretty proud of it. Here you go... Have a great week!
