Yesterday was another pleasant Sunday. Sundays are getting increasingly pleasant. The best part about church was Preceptor’s blessing of the children during communion. He says something like “the Lord bless you until your eating and drinking” or whatever, but it sounds like he says “until you’re 18 and drinking” and I kept […]
Shoot…it’s been awhile since I last wrote. So let’s pick it up.
Classes have been good. Greek is getting consistently harder. However, if there’s one thing I love, it’s sitting in Preceptor’s office and listening to him read Greek. It’s so pretty when he speaks it, especially since he speaks so softly, […]
Last night all the girls in the house went out to Starbucks to look at pictures of the sem wives’ travels over their Christmas breaks. Now I want to go everywhere, but I can’t, and that sucks. So far France and Germany are looking like good options, and perhaps Prague. I’m not […]
This blog is becoming a pawn to my agenda. Do I have an agenda? What’s an agenda?
I just realized that I’ve not seen an SUV, a truck, a Hummer or a Chevy Avalanche since I’ve been here. Cambridge, you are not Detroit. For that we can be the best of friends. […]
Cat Power does a wonderful, sultry version of that song, and I recommend it. It’s on the “I’m Not There” soundtrack, which incidentally is a pretty neat film.
Anyway, we went to evensong at Christ college tonight. Another absolutely beautiful choir, and I love sitting in those desk things. It’s a […]
Guess what? THIS SUNDAY WASN’T TRANSFIGURATION SUNDAY. Son of a gun. I figured it was because those were the readings we’re looking at this week for pericope seminar, but actually we’re about two weeks ahead So guess what I don’t get to listen to today. “The Transfiguration” in its entirety. […]
Well, Anglicanism, you did me good. You did me real good.
Jenna, Courtney and I hit up St. John’s tonight for their Epiphany Service of Lessons and Carols. I had high expectations for it, but actually being there was better than I could ever imagine. It didn’t matter that somebody accidentally set a […]
I love listening to Belle & Sebastian, and that’s what’s happening right now. It makes me want to go to Glasgow and hang out there for awhile. And that’s precisely what I’ll do.
Well, LOST was fine last night. Actually, the ending made me frustrated. I hate it when that happens. […]
I know, that smile is much too big. But I was wearing a Harry Potter robe, so whatev. I’m Harry, Courtney is Hermione, and Jenna is Ron, I think is what we decided. Only one problem, folks…my glasses aren’t ROUND.
We wear those to chapel every morning. Why is this significant?
a.) It’s a Cambridge tradition
b.) Westfield […]
Last night was house dinner with all the leftover Valpo dinner food, and that was pretty quality. The more meals I can have where I don’t use my own food, the better.
At any rate, Early Church with the Valpo kids this morning was a grand affair. Preceptor was talking about the Roman Empire and Graeco-Roman […]
