Summa-Time!!!!
Well, for starters I can hardly believe that I've just finished my first year at seminary. I've already learned so much in just this short period of time it blows my mind. Things are still cookin @ UPS I just wish with summer time came the ability to work longer and earn more money. The prospects of finding another job are pretty grim. Which would really help in the money dept.
Thats the one difficulty that I've really had to get used to so far here at seminary. I make just enough to clear my expenses and I hardly have anything left over. I'd love to be able to save as much as I can but in all reality I just can't. I'm that every current or former seminarian would be able to give testimony to this very situation. Still through it all I'm thankful that I'm able to meet my financial obligations; cause truth be told it could be the other way around. I'm thankful for parents who with financial difficulties of their own find ways to help me when I need it the most.
One thing that I've learned here is that the grade is not always a reflection of what you learned. My first semester is a clear indication of that fact. I learned so much but you wouldn't think so to look at my grades.
My hope is to try to get some reading done this summer. I've got 2 John Piper books that I got for Christmas that I want to read "Future Grace", and "When I don't desire God: How to Fight For Joy"
When I get'em read I'll be sure to post reviews about them.

Things Goings On.....
Howdy Folks,
Well this is just little blurb to let you all know I'm still alive. I've been covered up by "stuff" and I'm on slow but steady pace to finish out my 2nd semester here @ Southeastern so far this semester is shaping up to be whole lot better than my first. Apparently it takes you couple of painful semesters to get readjusted back to the lifestyle of studying/little to no social life after taking a year off.
Again I'd like to implore my readership to please pray for me and my work situation I've been in little of trouble and I'm relying on God to see me through this storm(Mark 4:35-41) and doing the best job I know how to and thats all anyone can ask of me.

Book Review Coming......
Well Ladies and Gents, my inaugural book review is about to take place here @ TheCrazyScotsman
It's taken me awhile to read it but we're almost there.
Keep me in prayers guys and gals(really unsure of my audience) we're gearing up for the end of the semester and I need to finish strong this semester.....last semester wasn't so hot so I have to make up for this time around.
