Wow, it's been 2 years! I don't know how many of us are left here since the beginning but it's been great. I can't believe it's been so long...

Well, I'm still here ... most of the time anyway.
And I still talk to bitterman every once in awhile so he's still around - just not on here.
We are missing quite a few of us though. I sure wish everyone would just show up out of the blue like tickie did. That would be so fun.

I wish they would all show up all together. Remember all the fun we used to have? Not that we still don't have fun.

(That other real life has a lot to answer for.)

I have not posted here since early June of last year. I have had a lot going on since then. I transferred out of my old college and into a new one and I am in a new surrounding with dorm life.
I know yall haven't missed me but I'll try to recap
Fall of 2006 I took 12.5 credit hours of college and passed all and got a 3.7 GPA for the year. During this particular time, my Grandmother's brother passed away from lung cancer. The greatest joy in my life at that point was when that man who could barely walk, stood up and told the family that He will be in Heaven. That right there warmed my heart over truly because they already had him on morphine but he had enough recognition to tell the family what he did. That was a tough time but with grace prevailed.
In college things have been different. I'm still the loner type but at this point in time I am loving the new surrounding. I live in the Alumni suit with a living room, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom with two other people. I have grown a sensitive love of naps since I have been here as well since hey a man has got to sleep.
Toward the end of my Fall year a tragic event happened. My Evangelism professor was on his roof trying to clean his gutters. He fell and was life lighted to Atlanta Medical and passed away there. That was my dearest heartbreak since he had a profound affect on my life. He even told me privately that I am the scholar and the one with hope in the REL department which I will hold dear for the rest of my life. He was only here for a matter of months but had a profound affect on all of us. Is very presense could move all of our hearts with his innate concern for each and every one of us and never made any of us feel left out.
I am now in my Spring semester taking 19 credit hours(8 classes worth) and so far I have A's in all of them. Its not simple and I want to hurl through the window at times but hey I got a will to fulfill. The one difficult thing is living with my third roommate who is apparently offended by the words shower, deodorant, washing machines and being clean. I mean that literally too. Plus him 350 pounds with my 130 isn't too pleasant to be around.
I've grown a good love of the game of tennis (playing that is). Since I can't afford anything else, this is a good way to relax and have fun and enjoy life.
For summer during the months of May and June I'll hav 14 hours, July no school (for a change) and the Fall will be 18.5 credit hours. The REL department has been so impressed with me I got a scholarship for $2,400 from the Atlanta Baptist Tabernacle for outstanding achievment. When you got to a private college and it costs more than what most can make, any little bit is helpful
The same things are true here: 1) its hard to find a girlfriend. It truly is. I have longed for one for a good long while but I have learned to be more content in what where I am and where I am going in the future. Love conquors all
2) Some people just dont fit i. Think of the cafeteria and all the separation there. I just throw myself at the end since I feel comfy there. Even though I did not like it for a while, I have learned this isolation has actually benefited me and God's will for the future in learning how to relate with the outcast, downtrodden and isolated in society
There you have it. That is a sudo summary from June to now. Have a Good Day and God Bless

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, Reb.

I have some bad news for you, Reb, and you might wanna sit down for it.
...

It doesn't get any easier. ;D
I'm glad you're settling down in College. I miss college. It was one of the best periods in my life. Enjoy while you can, dude.

I'm glad you're settling down in College. I miss college. It was one of the best periods in my life. Enjoy while you can, dude. I have learned those words of wisdom. I had one that used me for a while then another that just flat out said no. I am in search of love not random mess.
I guess keeping on a lookout works for now.
