What in the world is a white shadow anyway?
Well it looks like I'll be in Memphis next semester sharing an apartment with a one Mr. Austin Grisham. I'll be an international business major and I have yet to decide on a language. I'm considering Arabic or Spanish. Who knows?

So tonight I was compulsively downloading music and I managed to find Chris Martin covering a popular Christmas song, and it made my day. I felt a little out of place sitting in my dorm room blasting "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" in the middle of October, but I don't even care. It was probably one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard, and music that good transcends whatever season it is associated with.

See my lovesac is beneath my window and it makes for a perfect place to read. Currently I'm reading a secular rebuttal to the Da Vinci Code's philosophies. They are slightly skewed to say the least. Anyway, if I read for a long time I usually end up falling asleep, and this was the case today. Well my window is right next to a door that is used by my whole hall, and its quite disconcerting to wake up and realize that strangers walk past and watch me sleep.

My allergies have been giving me trouble since Monday night. I cannot breathe. This week I have often wondered if I would be better off without a nose. Total sneezes today - 31. My consecutive record was 13 a few years ago.

I desperately need a new pair of tehvas, I stepped on a rock today while wearing them and cut my foot. They are THAT worn down. I refuse to not wear sandals. Contract pneumonia if i must, but I will let my feet breathe the beautiful fall air they deserve.

Well I wasn't going to go home, but divine providence gave me a reason to. Turns out there is a Jiu Jitsu tournament that I am ordained to participate in. Wish me luck.

Perhaps this weekend the Rhodes kids, Andy and me can adventure through the catacombs into the Memphis Zoo. Apparently there is a hidden entrance underneath a church to the zoo. How cool is that? I'm bringing a Merekat back to State.

Existentialistic and apathetic thinking is so dangerous. God please help me to see things as you have created them and the meaning with them.



My heart knows the most wonderful song
I've given up hope that you'll ever sing along
