i AM done
Ha ha to Laura. I turned in my last two papers today and I have NO FINALS. The glories of grad school. Now I can focus on getting the rest of my life organized (i.e. funke) and other things like temp work, partying and caroling with the small group, planning for our trip to Chatty for Christmas and New Year's, and, of course, blogging.
I, like Laura, will be busy next semester as well, doing an assistantship with one of my favorite professors, as well as the possibility of tutoring at the Epiphany School, where our church meets. Oh yeah, speaking of church, we are involved with the music, and since the church is so new our contributions for songs are welcome. Yay! Here comes gospel....
Over Thanksgiving our family came up with the idea of creating a new songbook for the church, filled with only good songs and hymns that are not hard for the congregation to sing but are still aesthetically pleasing and theologically edifying. We decided to call it "Everyone Can Sing!" Because, you know, everyone CAN sing, just a lot of people think they can't. I know it sounds cheesy, but at least we are actually trying to be proactive about church music, rather than just complaining about it (which I often do, see my previous post). All right, so I'm being somewhat facetious, but the idea is out there.
Last but not least, I found this video to be hilarious. I don't know why, I was just laughing the whole time.

Hooray for being done, but I have to say that there is no www in front of my blog address...
On the other hand, http://www.invisible.com is a rather interesting site, if you are in the need for plastic retainers, that is.

Whoops. Fixed the link.

I never knew Radiohead would make such amazing marching band music. Really, it's quite stirring.

I know! And I just love the movements the band members make with the music. And the trumpet soloists! So funny to me.

Glad to hear you've got some work lined up for next semester. I may ask you and Laura if you could help with tutoring at my program sometime, depending on the number of students that we get. But you can always say no. :)
In re: your songbook idea, I was thinking of doing something similar. I'll start collecting materials for it, I think.
