Hey! Whatsup?
You know, I think that there is a feeling for when you are learning and today I learned a few things. I shall have to recap most of my day however to make my point.
So, at the beginning of my day I slept in a bit... I did not have enough time to get to school and go sharing (as far as I thought anyways) so I decided I should just go off to Loeb and work on my CHEM prelab which was due at 4:30. I also watched the demo video for the lab and finally knew what the lab manual meant.
Ya, so I went to Loeb and was going to go downstairs when I saw this 2010 devotional Day Planner. I sat down and went to see who it belonged to. I emailed her. She may not even need it, but it looks cool to me. It probably had some sentimental value..? In any case I took it so that it wouldn't be lost or anything.
First was a MATH tutorial. Since we have only had one lecture at this point, all we did was go over row echelon form and reduced row echelon forms... It's pretty easy. I did however learn that you don't need to have discrete numbers in a matrix, you can also have fractions.
After this we went to MATH class and did pretty much the same thing. She kinda yelled at us because we were on our laptops not paying attention and she told us how important it really is. It's like not learning the alphabet. How can you expect to read and write without the alphabet..?
After that was another fun filled PHYS lecture with Dr. Donkers. (That's his name.) He is quite boring and will often stop talking mid sentence to look at us blankly for a few seconds...... I learned F=qE.
After that was my CHEM lab. Today we were making Salicylic acid, a precursor of aspirin (acetyl salicylic acid). It was a boring lab... First we got our new lab partners. Mine looks okay. Then we found out that there weren't enough round-bottom flasks, so we had to split into groups of 3. In general, the lab was like boiling, filtering and disolving a solution like 3 times.... Ya. It ended early anyways, so that was cool.
I hadn't gone sharing yet (as I had planned to that morning, this morning... xP so long ago...), so me and DK who has the CHEM lab at the same time went. We talked to one girl starting at like 5:45. She seemed to have a relativistic view of things, but agreed in heaven and God. It was a good conversation and it only took maybe 10 minutes. By the way, she had earbuds in when we went over to her. xP All three of us had class at 6, so it was cool. I gave her a Knowing God Personally booklet which summarizes what we were talking about and I wrote my email on the back in case she had any questions. I don't think DK has really gone sharing on campus too much, but he was doing well for just talking off the top of his head.
That was not evangelerving. That was a real spiritual conversation.
So, ya. I learned that it doesn't take an hour to have a good conversation.
Ya. I then had FILM class and I got to talk to JW for a few minutes before class. I havn't seen her in a couple months. This was partially because I've been sitting with P(?) since the C4C res pizza outreach night and because she has been watching the movies before class so she can leave earlier. Today we watched "Wild Strawberries" I thought it was really good. Our prof was saying that there are some cases in which the only medium that a film could take place in with the same effect is Film and in the movie there were times where a book could not have done it, a buch of pictures could not have done it, theatre could not have done it, but a video was perfect.
It ended early, I got home at 9:15ish after seeing MB at the bus stop, I cooked the ground beef so that it won't rot when I'm gone Friday and Saturday, and then my phone started ringing. I was in the middle of making a salad when it started ringing. I picked it up. It was VW, the owner of the devotional planner. She seemed very relieved to know that I had it. She seemed mildly surprised that I was also Christian. She thought it was random. So, tommorow around 1 I will be going back to where I found it and returning it.
You know... I always try to plan things out. The more I plan the worse things end up. God's plan is better than our plans. If I hadn't slept in I wouldn't have gone sharing with DK, I wouldn't have found the planner, I wouldn't have known what to do in the lab...
Ya. xP
Ttyl.

PS. The jokes on the Steacie Building chalkboards are the best. xP LOL. Sn-apple! xPPP Heisenburg's wife can't find her keys. Explaination..? "You probably know too much about their momentum." LOL. Ferrous Wheel! xP They are just so good. xP
Cool that you enjoyed Wild Strawberries! I haven't seen it but J says it's his favourite Bergman since he doesn't tend to like the overt symbolism in Bergman movies. Love to chat about what you're watching (who's your prof?) -KCK
