A Nice Day with a Happy Equation

So, I hate math, but this much I know: Breakfast at Panera with one friend + Tea/Hot chocolate @ Caribou with another friend + Singing along to the Urbana 09 worship CD = Really good day. Now, I'm going to share more Urbana stories and go to bed and SLEEP. This is the third morning in a row where I've had to get up early and I don't want to get sick!

From the Realm of Randomness,

Triangles of power in the New Testament: Gospels

1. King: Rome, religious leaders, spiritual forces

2. Prophet: All the followers of Jesus

3. Disenfranchised: The poor, infirm, women and children, tax collectors

Today

1. Kings- City council, school board, newspaper

2. Prophet- You, your fellowship, church, campus community, etc

3. Disenfranchised- Child laborers, child soldiers, women in brothels, poor, victims of human trafficking

Unveil the shame

END OF SEMINAR NOTES

Anyway, back to random story. After the first session, one of my roommates was having really bad stomach cramps and they took her to first aid area. She's better now, thank God, so that's good. And kind of weird to say this, but one of the paramedics was pretty cute. :) Wish I wasn't so weak, I ate food, but things are still out of whack.
