finally stealing some time...

sigh... yes... can you believe it? I'm actually blogging... actually putting up a new post... the first in two weeks. =) I'm sorry. I know how boring i can be, and have been trying to save you all some time.

Actually... i've been really busy. The last two weeks have gone by in a blur, because, as can be seen from the previous post... there's school. School is still a puzzle to me. Sometimes it's busy, sometimes it's slow... but most of the time, it's just time-consuming. I've gotten very very tired of the purely academic classes... the ones I take to fufil general education credit and honors credit... knowing full well that about 99% of the class will never ever be applied.

Take as a classic example, Faith and Civilisation. Now... while i admit that forcing someone to think and comtemplate worldviews and such is education in itself, and yes, very much part of real life, I am just plain sick of it all.

Sigh. Good news is, that it is finally Fall Break. It's been, and will be busy... but i've managed to snatch some time away to do things I crave the most... read stupid stories, sing silly songs, watch sweet tv shows (all with happy endings)... and all good stuff like that.

I went to Eureka Springs, Arkansas over the weekend. I promise to have an album of pics up by the end of this week... but for now, here just one pretty picture to whet your appetite.

There are prettier pics... but I wanted to give you an idea of the height we were at. Lots of swerves in the road... like Cameron Highlands... but warm =) like 28-30 degrees warm =) (hehe... yay!). And of course, biggest accomplishment was driving the 3 hrs to and fro from Tulsa... =)

Right now I've got 3 papers to write, research and a couple of other pieces of assignments on my plate. Am babysitting tomorrow, going to work on Thursday and possibly heading to the mall on Friday. =) But i'm happy... I just need a break.

For all those who I owe emails to... I'm sorry. I'll get down to them... sometime this week =)

Oh and Hazel!!! =) Congratulations dear!!! I'm so proud of you for making it this far. Can't believe she has a higher diploma and is working already! =) You know, God is good... has blessed this friend of mine with alot of things... most of all, I guess He's been there through the tough times... times which i remember clearly... and hope never repeat themselves! =) All the best. and yes... =) I wish I could go to the ceremony... but since I can't, take pics! and send them to me.

off to some serious work.
love you all!
