Where do you sit in class?

Which one were you in college?

Which one was I?
I know which one I was... any guesses out there?

Success! I've been seen by Google!

Well, my life is officially complete. My glorious automobile, "Rusty" (christened by Bethany) was captured by a Google Streetview Car. I can now rest happy.

It is a bit of a surreal experience to say the least. To be known on the internet... even if no one else cares! :D

The reality of the quake

It's like rain on your wedding day... or an earthquake. This blog post jolted me into the reality that, yes, no one was expecting the earthquake in Sichuan.

Graduation 2008

They have done it! Class of 2008, in all of their glory. ;)




What would this class be without a crazy picture eh? A few more graduation pix are online here and I'm sure there are gads on facebook.

I went to the ceremony in time to see all of the students walk and I actually can say I enjoyed it. Having been out of college for a couple years now, the symbolism of that journey across the stage into life post-Oxy has taken on new meaning. It is the entrance into a new world with new possibilities, fears, and adventures.

And in some ways, this was my graduation too. As I have made the decision to move on from my time here at Oxy and into the post-InterVarsity world I wonder what possibilities, fears, and adventures I will have lined up for me. Coming out of the last student conference I will be at in a long while, I feel tired, and yet I am excited for the potential of things to come. Who knows what is ahead? I, for one, am not sure. All I know is that I feel privileged to get to 'graduate' alongside such an inestimable group of people! :)

How many countries can you name?

Another distraction in a string of geographically related trivial moments. Thank God for my work place! Let's see what y'all can get!

I find this kind of stuff magnificently distracting. I tried to go off the Animaniacs song in my head (the countries of the world). Any other strategies out there?
