Cadet Update

Hey Everyone! Life has been really busy since school started, so I haven't been blogging much. Hopefully that will change soon. Today I took a Chemistry test (which I thought I did really well on, but it turned out that, I didn't. ugh), wrote a paper, did a bunch of work, babysat, practiced piano for and hour and 15 min., did my Saturday chores, and am now blogging. Writing class has been a whole lot of fun. Right now we are studying Shakespear. I love Shakespear! In Omnibus we are getting into a lot of theological discussions, and it is great. I can't believe I am saying this but I am really getting to like Eusebius. I am learning things I have never heard before. Quite intriguing.

Cadet update: (since, for some reason he hasn't been updating his blog) Classes are going pretty well, is the report. He is extremely tired. He has to get up at 5 a.m. for PT every morning so it is draining, especially when he can't get to bed early. Also there have been a lot of parties on campus and in the dorms, so he didn't get to sleep until 2 a.m. Sunday morning. Tonight, or tomorrow morning I guess you could say, he is participating in a Missing in Action vigil with 24 other guys. He has to march in front of the memorial from 12:30 a.m. to 1:30 a.m. then get back to his dorm sleep and hour or so and be up and at training at 6:00 a.m. for field navigation (he has to drive about 15 min. to get there, I think). So, he could really use your prayers, that the Lord my hold him up through the hours with no sleep, and that he will be able to get to bed early tomorrow and not be disrupted by the parties so he might be refreshed for the Lord's Day.

Tomorrow are church is having a booth at this thing called Cattail Days where we had out tracks and books. Dad, David, and I are leaving here at 7 a.m. to help set up and then are signed up for the 9 to noon shift. So we are going to be gone pretty much all morning. The flu has been passing around here, thankfully I have been able to fend it off so far. Sarah and Joben haven't been so lucky. Speaking of Joben, he has been really funny lately. He has all of sudden become a person. Well, I have to go now. God Bless,
