the cold will break soon…

ahh, classes are over for winter quarter. it was the suckiest quarter of my existence, but god got me through it. proof: here i am, and it’s over. heh.

sadly, i’ve got three major hurdles left to go: the philosophy 184 paper rewrite (i got back a c+ on the first draft: major ouch), the logic problem set (we’ve already got most of it done, which is good), and the greek final (which will be hard as butt).

but, major though those hurdles may be, they will be over by 12pm tuesday, 3.19.2002. and that will be a beautiful day.

i spent some time today acquiring a few new toys which i’ve been looking around for for some time now. i bought both at fry’s, which happened to have super great deals going today.

first, since i don’t have a printer, and i need one for school, i bought one. in fact, i bought a laser printer….for $100. yeah, it’s a good deal.

and i also bought an 80gb external firewire hard drive, to use for storing music, video, and document files. it’s pretty tight.

the capstone of the day, however, was a time of prayer and worship with some campus crusade folks….we met in the bottom of the history corner, and had two solid hours of praying with each other and praising god in song. it’s good to be in community…

especially for me, since one of my biggest character flaws is my insistence that i don’t need people. but i’m human, obviously, and whether i like it or not i need community and intimacy. so it was good tonight.

sounds: the pleasant hum of new electronic devices
