Yesterday and today have been quite the interesting days. I have to say...I've smiled a lot. Yesterday began with my Old Testament Exposition class on Job and Ecclesiastes. The day started out a little rocky considering class starts at 8 and I didn't wake up til 7:41. I made it by a few minutes after 8. I enjoyed class, Dr. Cartledge brings many interesting pieces of information to the table and he really wants us to think about things in new ways.
After class I returned home to take a shower and really get ready for the day. In the mean time, I got the definite from my boss that I am going to St. Louis in February for work. I'm actually quite excited. I had one more class and then went to get a pedicure.
Last night a group of 8 of us went to Durham to eat sushi at our favorite place, Akashi. We celebrated Kellie's 29th birthday and had a great time of fellowship. Laura ordered the wrong sushi and it turned out to be very spicy. I was one of the few at the table that could eat more than one piece, and I actually liked it. Laura figured if I could handle it, it couldn't be too bad. Well, she popped the piece in her mouth and all eyes were on her. She turned completely red and grabbed for her drink. Her face was PRICELESS.
On our way out, Joey pointed out the sign on the Chinese restaurant next door that said: New Item: Brown Rice. How cool is that.. their newest item is brown rice. Yum.
This morning I took 4 students to the Social Security Office. We spent over 2 hours there. It was not my idea of fun as there were so many people around and it made me claustrophobic. One woman even took her child into the bathroom and proceeded to beat the child and scream at her. The security guard had to knock on the bathroom door and check on the situation.
This evening, we showed the first ever international movie at Campbell. When I arrived the guy from the physical plant said that they had received an empty case. I thought.. fantastic. I called my boss and he didn't answer. He finally called back only to determine that the DVD was in his computer. We finally got the movie back (30 minutes late) and showed "Bride and Prejudice." I truly enjoyed the movie. The students laughed and we all had a good time. A lot of the scenes were priceless. Especially the scene with the gospel choir on the beach (you gotta see it).
I like days filled with brown rice and all things priceless.
