This week has been kind of rough. I've been up till 3:00am the last couple nights doing homework and stuff up in the computer lab. Tonight I just had to finish reading through a book though and I finally got it done. I think I am going to be able to get to bed before 1:30 for once. Today was just classes and work as usual. I then went to church afterwards for the bible study tonight before coming back to my room for the rest of the night. So yeah.. pretty blah day. Night.

Well, back to the routine of school once again from a great weekend. Can't really say too much exciting happend today. I had accounting class, convo, then my creation studies class. I then was at work the rest of the day. So today was just back to life as usual. I ended up coming home right after work today so I could finish up some homework I needed to work on. I think I'm basicly done for the night now though. I just need to do some more reading out of a book whenever I get a chance to do that. I'm up at the computer lab right now keeping Allie company while she studies for her exam. I just finshed all my required reading a little bit ago. I may just read ahead a little more while I wait for her to finish. Anyway thats pretty much all. I'll say good night, but I'll probalby be awake another 30mins or so. Anyway night!

Ok I'm going to try to write a quick catch up blog. A lot of fun and great things have gone on this weekend. I'll start off with my awsome and amazing date with my incredible girlfriend on Friday. After work I had to run by the church to get things prepared for church this sunday. I had to do it then or I wouldn't have had a chance the rest of the weekend. Anyway I had Allie come and meet me at the church after I got done with the powerpoint setup and we went over to Moe's Wings for dinner followed by a nice relaxing time at "The Daily Grind" Coffee Shop. We just hung out for awhile there enjoying each others company. It was there I discovered how cool it is the way I reflect off of her eyes when I gaze into them. It was very enchanting =)! After leaving the coffee shop we then returned to campus and dropped off our stuff from the day back at our dorms, then walked down to the Schilling Center to wait in line so we could go see a Justin Lookadoo talk at a Late night meeting. He is author of a book called Datable and he was going to speak to the campus about dating (at least we thought so). Well it was supposed to start around 11:00 and come to find out, they were running really really late and they didn't even let the students in until just after 12:00. We were there for about an hour and a half before we finally got to go inside. During that time Allie and I engaged ourself in a dissussion during the wait. Once we were able to go inside they then didn't even start the thing for another 20 minutes or so after that. By this time Allie and I both kind of had the mind set of just wanting to leave... I really wanted to hear him speak but by this time we both were kind of turned off because of them taking so long. We still stayed for about the first 30minutes of him talking but then decided to just get up and walk out anyway. Personally I didn't feel like I was getting anything out of what he had to say and for the first part of it all he did was sterotype girls and guys. It was kind of annoying. He was funny in parts but, just wasn't worth staying out till 1:30am to hear it. We both had to wake up early the next morning to get to Baltimore. Ok so Saturday was another extremly extraordinary day. Allie and I had the privledge to go up to Baltimore for a day trip with a group from Liberty. We had to be at the Student Center by 7:30 that morning so we could check in and get some paper work filled out and stuff. The Bus didn't end up leaving until it was about an hour late. But the trip went smoothly and we got to Balimore just after noon. The only problem with the drive was the fact the AC was on full blast and there was no adjustment knob or anything. My poor little darling was getting all cold and stuff. I had thought about bringing a little jacket but had decied not to, and I wished I had after having to watch her suffer amongst her goosebumps. She was strong and survived it though and we made it to good ol' baltimore. The first thing we did was just walk around a little bit and find someplace to eat. Allie had a tasteful craving for Crab Cake so we scouted out a good restaraunt to partake of that "Baltimorian" delight. It was my first time ever having one and I thought they were pretty good. I was glad to have experienced that. As we tried to find a place to eat it though we found out there was no chairs anywhere that were vacant for us to sit. We ended up having to go all the way out side and sitting along the dock to sit down. I was actually glad we had to though because it was a better view anyway. We even saw a huge school of fish swim by and a couple jelly fish as well, It was fun. As we finished our lunch we contemplated what we were going to do next. We decided to go to the Baltimore Aquarium and get some tickets. It was kind of sad because they didn't have the dolphin show. It would have been really cool to be able to see that, but the aquarium itself was really really awsome. I'm glad we did that instead of the baseball game. I got most of the visit on video and I'll try to get that up online sometime when I can. But the animals were very cool and the kids that were there looking at them all were fun to watch too. Over all that was a great place to go. The only thing it lacked was an Octopus. I really wanted to see one =(. Oh well I got over it. After leaving the aquarium Allie and I ended up just walking around the town looking at the sights and the beauty of the scenery. As beautiful as all of it is It just couldn't compare to Allie at all. I had the most beautiful thing in baltimore walking around with me all day, my hand in hers. It is humbling to have such a great privledge and honor of sharing a day with this fine girl. I think it took all of God's creative juices to make someone so astounding and stunning. She is truly one of the reasons God calls his creation "Good". Little undeserving me sits and tries to take the Blessing as well as I can. As we continued our walk around the city we ended up in a place call Fells Point. It was a historic part of the city and we went in and looked at some of the shops and tried to find a place to eat. Allie spotted a cool little diner type place and we went for it. Turns out that it was one of the better restarunats I've been to. The food was well priced, but yet was extremetly delicious. The waitress was very nice as well. It was a good quick place to eat. Allie sure can pick em. After eating we had to get back to the main part of town so we could be in vacinity of the bus drop off point when the time came. We ended up walking by a really cool italian restarunt and one of the guys from it talked to us with a great itailin accent. Allie was excited about that and she thought it was really cool. If we hadn't eaten already we may have had to go there to eat. We had to just walk by instead though. By this time it was really close to get picked up by the bus so we just went right to the pick up area and waited for them to come. We ended up making really good time back to Lynchburg and got back with more then enough time before curfew. I will tell you though that I had a fabulous time, and I am so glad i was able to go.

Today was kind of nice day. I had my first class as usual, but then my second class was canceled to today so I had the great honor of joining Allie and going to breakfast with her. It was a nice leasurely morning being able to do that. After that I went and helped her do a computer homework assignment in the computer lab. Later on after that I then had to go to my last class of the day. She kind of went over time a little bit, but I still managed to get to work on time without a problem. I was very productive tonight, it was great. I finished all of my accounting homework for this weekend, I also was able to get all the work done for both of my computer classes done too. All I really need to do for the weekend now is write a page reaction to a story out out of my Liturature book, then do a lot of reading stuff for my creation studies class (that should be fun though with creation stuff). Anyway my eyes feel like they are bugging out since I've been stairing at the computer screen for so long. I did have a break for hall meeting and prayer groups and stuff but other then that its been work pretty much all evening. I really should get to bed now... night.

Scores for the tests I took last week: Accounting-60%, Creation Studies-70%, Java Programing-96%, Database Administration-90%. I guess I'm fairly satisfied with those scores... as long as I pull a D (hopefully C) out of Accounting I'll be happy. These were the first tests too so now that I know how to study I'll be ready next time. Ok so yeah, today I don't really have anything exciting to report on. Yesterday was kind of cool though. I ended up going over to the Hartmans after work last night and they fed me lasagna. It was fun, they were baby sitting Vanessa's girls while they were gone on vacation last night too, so I was surrounded by kids, it was great. When I held Kayla she would just stare at me the whole time with her great big baby eyes. It was funny. I worked on the computer for them a little bit too while I was over there, but then I spent some time playing with the kids some too. I didn't end up leaving till around 10:00 or so. Ok well that catches me up again so now I am going to go to sleep. Night!

I haven't gotten much homework done today. I actually have a decent amount to do too.. Instead though I went to the Hartmans after work and I ended up being there until after 10:00. Then I got back to campus and had a computer I needed to get finished for someone. So I still have a good amount left to do tomorrow. So anyway. I need to go to bed though because I ahve to wake up at like 6:00 tomorrow. Night.

I'm really tired right now. Flying always drains my energy for some reason, it makes me loose my appetite somewhat too. (but you never thought you would have heard me say that). Anyway, I woke up this morning so I could meet up with my instructor before he left on vacation then went to work until 3:00. After I got off work I went directly to the airport and prepared for my flight. I'm really excited I did well and it was actually pretty fun too. Its really nice to be up there all by myself. It was defanatly a surrounded by God time. The main thing I was worried about was radio comms. I had to make sure I talked to the right people at the right times and things. I actually wasn't too worried about flying so much as that. It all worked out in the end though. It got a little foggy on me on the flight back but I still managed to stay on course. So Praise God for the protection today! After getting back, even though I had no appetite I still went to the dinning hall to eat since I hadn't eaten today. Once I grabbed some dinner I then went to the server rooms here at liberty to help give suggestions on our massive internet bogging down problem in the evenings. I ended up being there for about an hour or so before coming back to my room for the rest of the night. I got here around 8:00 and I've been sleeping ever since. I woke up around 11:30 for a phone call, then I wanted to make sure I blogged to so you all would know how flying went. But I think I'm going to get back to bed now and sleep through till morning. So good night!

Hey people.. Fridays are pretty good days for me. I don't have classes these days so I am able to get a bunch of stuff done. The only thing I really had to do today was go to chapel. This morning I went to the server room here at liberty to look around and give some suggestions for the network problems they are having. I didn't do too much today though. I might help out more tomorrow. Anyway after doing that I did go to chapel which was pretty good then afterwards I planned to go back to the server room again but they had another issue they needed to deal with instead at the time so I didn't end up going there anymore today. Instead I ended up going out to lunch with Chuck. That was a really good time and its always fun to chat with him. He has a lot of wisdom and its nice to partake of some of it. He mentors me in a lot of ways and I don't think he even realizes it. But anyway it was nice to just have some time with him. I left lunch with him and went directly to work after that. The workday was pretty typical so there wasn't much too exciting. Once I left work though I ran by the church to take care of some powerpoint stuff I needed to do for songs on Sunday. We are actually doing some really really cool songs this sunday. I e-mailed my pastor one because I really liked it and he ended up doing it this sunday. Its great. Once I got everything settled at church I then headed over to the movie theater to meet Jonathan and we hung out and watched "War of the Worlds". It was a pretty interesting and fairly exciting movie. They seemed to leave out some blanks though that would have been nice to be filled in. The ending provided closure but not the way to make it close persay. Its kind of hard to explain that part. Anyway I'm still glad I went and It was awsome to spend time with my best friend Jonathan. We went to grab some coffee for a little while afterwards. Anyway after leaving I returned to campus and called my still very young grandma who I love very much and wished her a happy birthday. It was nice to talk to her for awhile, I miss her lots n' lots. But anyway I really should be getting to bed now, I have to wake up and be at the airport by 7:30 tomorrow. I want to be awake enough to make my flight tomorrow. So good night!

Ok well I had my two tests today. I think I ended up doing alright on them. They were for both of my computer classes. I had to design a database for one and write a program for another. Not sure when I'll get my grades back for it though. Anyway other then that my day was pretty normall for school and work. After work though I ended up eating dinner with Allie and then we went and hung out in the courtyard where they were having a band play. Allie's brother RJ was a part of it so it was nice to see him. I saw a bunch of other people I know so it was nice to just visit for awhile. After that I came back to my room and did some reading and computer work. I also did a lot of conversing with guys on my hall tonight so that was pretty cool. Anyway hall meeting tonight was longer then usual so I postponed my prayergroup lesson for the night and we just had a time of prayer tonight. It was still pretty fun though. Anyway That pretty much covers all the important stuff. It might be a good idea if I went to bed now. Night!

I had one test today in my creation studies class. I have a feeling I did pretty well on it. It was a multiple choice one so I think I did good but I won't know for sure until it gets graded. I have two more tests tomorrow so I've been up studying for those tonight. I also had to read a bunch of pages for my english class. Today was a whole was pretty good though. Work was very very busy today. We had soo many customers. It was nice because it made the day seem faster but they just never really let up. I think we sold like 5 comptuers today though so that was really cool. After work I went to church for the wednesday bible study and it was pretty good tonight. After getting back to campus from it though I tried and started on all my homework. I ended up taking a break and doing Accounatbily with my SLD for about 40 minutes or so, then I ended up going to late night to get something to eat. I had 4 peices of pizza and they had massive amounts of cheese on them. But it was pretty good. I love cheese. I sat with a few guys from my dorm too so that was a good time. We had fun chatting. On the way back to my dorm I stopped in at the Lab because I needed to print a few things. I didn't have to be there for too long though. I made it back to my room shortly afterwards and buckled down and studied some more. Its decided to get really late on me tonight though without my permission. I will have to deal with it though and just get to bed. SO yeah.. good night.

Today was a pretty normal school day. Nothing too exciting or difficult happend today. I have a test tomorrow though and two on thursday so that should be a good day. Anyway after classes I headed off to work. I didn't have to go to the shop at first though, I had to go to a buisness in downtown L-berg first. I ended up being there until around 5:00 getting them taken care of. I think they should be all set now though. After that I went back to the shop for the last bit of the work day and returned to campus to study for the rest of the night. Its been a long eveing just doing all that reading. My eyes feel like they are bugging out. I'm going to bed.

Ok today was great! My chruch had a nice college student picnic type thing afterwards. It was a lot of fun and a good amount showed up today too. After that I went to the D-bergs and hung out for the rest of the evening doing homework. Allie helped me out for a good while on my homwork so that was great. We did have time to watch a movie though tonight too so that was fun. It was a good evening and I just grew to realize even more how great Allie is and how lucky of a dude I am. Anyway.. just had to write about it really quick.. Getting sleepy so I need to head to bed now. Night!

Well, stuff just goes on.. whether I blog or not things still are happending here in the great L-berg. Sorry that I missed yet another day. Anyway Friday was pretty good. Allie and I went to ministry chapel and Dr. Ergun Caner spoke that day. He did a great message as always. It was cool. After that I did some seaching for a book that Allie needed, while she was in class. I didn't really have any luck finding it though. After that I just went to lunch then to work for the rest of the day. It was a fairly normal day at work yesterday, but I was feeling a little wierd so I was kind of tired and hoping the day could end soon. Once work was over I did have to leave as soon as I could because the dinning hall back at school closes at 6:30 so it doesn't give me much time between work and getting back to campus. I ended up making it in time though so I ate with Allie and we sat and chilled for awhile there at dinner. We then tried to do some homework at the computer lab, but they closed it early so we just had to go somewhere else. We ended up just watching a movie though. It was a good time though. We had a great time just talking and laughing together. Today was a pretty typical day too. It started off a little strange though. at 7:30 this morning the LUPD walked in my room and said I had an hour to move my van because they were having a conference and had reserved that area for those attending. The only problem was they never put signs up or made announcements saying that it was reserved so that really stunk. Anyway it worked out ok though I just got up and showered, then grabbed my stuff for the day and moved my car to the dinning hall and ate breakfast before going to work today. It was nice too because I ended up getting to eat with Bekah (Allie's RA) so that was fun. Work today was pretty normal again. We've been pretty slow lately though so it kinda makes the day drag on. Once we finally got done though I had to get over to the church and take care of the powerpoint stuff for sunday. I ended up talking to Pastor for about an hour or so though. That was fun - I always enjoy our conversations. Once I finished up at church I headed over to the Donnebergs house for the rest of the night to do some homework and just relax a little bit. It was pretty good, I had a nice time just chillin. I actually managed to get a good amount of homework done too. Anyway that pretty much covers it. I think I should maybe start getting ready to turn in for the night. TTFN.

Well I've been pushing it hard the past few days. Today was a little rough too. First of all Allie was sick this morning so I wasn't able to see her first thing in the morning on the way to class because she didn't go to class. So that wasn't very cool. Allie did end up getting a little better by afternoon so she managed to get to her math class at least. But anyway, my computer classes today (as easy as they should be) have piled on the busy work. Its really annoying because it doesn't take all this homework to learn the stuff we need to learn. So anyway I'm stuck with a good amount of computer homeworkt his weekend. I still have a good load of accounting homework to do as well. Its really annoying though because every evening when I sit down to do the online portion of the homework, thats right when the internet here on campus decides to just not work for anybody. Its really horrible because I can't ever get it done. Anyway that was a short side note. Classes other then the stupid busy work stuff were ok. I then headed to work for the rest of the day. I did have to do a service call for like an hour but everything else was very routine. On the way back to campus after work I stopped by the store to get Allie a get well flower. I hope it helped her some. We ended up being able to eat dinner together, but then we headed back to the dorms. I still had some work to do before hall meeting that night. I organized my prayer groups lesson on holiness, then I did some homework best I could until hall meeting. Anyway my prayer group went very good tonight. All four of my guys showed up and we had a good time interacting. Afterwards I just did all the written homework I could without the use of the internet. But now I'm stuck and need the internet for everything else. The net finally started working again now that it is 1:30, but it just gave me enough time to write this and send it out. So I will have to say good night for now!

last couple days have been busy again. Its Spiritual Emphasis week this week though so the meetings each evening have been really good. Clayton King is the speaker for this series. Yesterday night about 80 people came to get saved, it was really awsome. Just the over all worship for these nights have been really good. Its amazing the God that we serve. OK I just had to write a quick entry. I"m tired though so I'm going to sleep now.

Hey, the internet was really slow last night so I couldn't get online well enough to write a blog. But I'll try and catch up from the last few days today since I don't have work today. Saturday was pretty a pretty great day. I went to work as usual and it was actually a quite relaxing day at work that day so thats always nice. After work I had to get some stuff done over at the church, so I tried to do that but ran out of time before I needed to go meet up with Allie and go to a wedding (no it wasn't ours). But it was a pretty decent wedding and Pete and Julie was there with us also. I got to meet a lot of people that Allie works and it was a lot of fun. I did get to dance with her again though, thats always great! After the wedding Allie and I then went to see a Fantastic Four at the Dollar theater. I was glad I saw it, but it wasn't as good as I expected unfortunatly. We ended up getting back to campus after midnight. I ended up going to sleep pretty early saturday night though because I never did finish what I needed to do at church that day so I had to wake up and get to church by 7:00 sunday morning. Sunday turned out to be a great day as well. Chruch was very good as usual and we even had a good amount of visitors. Then Allie and I went out with a bunch of the college group out to lunch at tokyos. It was pretty fun. We didn't stay out too long though cause we both had homework to do. So after eating we went to her parents house and worked on homework for pretty much the rest of the evening. I had a hard time staying awake though so I didn't get as much done as I could have. I got the important stuff done though and a good amount of the next day's work as well. We ended up coming back to campus by 10:30 though and took a nice evening stroll to the new paved pit to see what it looked like. Not too much to see though, but its coming along alright. Anyway I then dropped her off and got back to my room and had a good conversation with my mom on the phone for a good while. Once I got off with her I then had to do some homework for the rest of the night. I think I went to bed around 1:30 or so. Anyway that brings me up to today.. I'll just stop here and hopefully do another one tonight!

I just flew to North Carolina Tonight in the dark! It was really cool. The sky was so clear, and being up in the air where it was massivley dark around you I could see so many stars it was amazing. I think I did a lot better tonight too even in the dark I managed to find the airport, land, and return again. I still have a hard time keeping track of everything I need to do all at once, but my instructor said I did a good job. I was scheduled to go at 8:00 today but we didn't end up really getting off the ground until a little before 9:00 so since we started late we went late. I didn't even leave the airport tonight until a little after midnight. But I had a good time flying tonight and I didn't get sick or anything either. Flying still drains all my energy though so I am beat tired right now. The rest of my day this morning was pretty typical so I won't write much on that. I"m just going to head to bed. Night! PS. My girlfriend is the bestest!

Today was a very productive day for me. I had my three classes as usual today, followed by work. But this evening I got quite a bit of my homework done. First though I was able to have dinner with Allie, Jo, and BJ tonight at Taco Bell. It was pretty fun just being able to hang out with them over dinner. Once I got back to campus I helped Allie carry all her stuff to her room then got to my room and started on the homework right away. I also needed to finish up my prayer lesson as well. I ended up doing my lesson tonight on Holiness and how we as christains sometimes take for granted the blessing we really have in Christ. So I encouraged my guys to pray and get started with a devotional routine. I shared with them what I do daily and explained how they could do the same kind of thing too. I then talked about our actions and life as christians. I then read them this devotional My Utmost I would encourage you to take a look at it too. We then finished up in prayer for our personal requests and we spent some extra time in prayer for those in New Orleans as well. Over all it went really good. It was kinda sad that I only had two students tonight though. Anyway I then was able to get basicly all of my homework done tonight that I needed to actually do. The rest is just reading stuff and I have to break that up or else I fall asleep all the time trying to read it all. I will attempt to get the reading done this weekend. Anyway I probalby shoudl get to bed now. I need to rest up since I'll be flying tomorrow night. I want to have the energy for that. So good night!

The last few days have been soo busy. My classes have hammered me pretty good. Monday I had class and work as usual, but after work I had a prayer leader meeting back on campus then Allie and I had to go over our books. So we didn't end up getting back to start homework until pretty late. Then tuesday was the same basic way for me. I ended up working late until around 8:30 and then I had to go spend some time with jonathan for accountabitly since we missed a chance to do it last week. That got me set back pretty late. After returning to campus I then went to late night with Allie since I hadn't really eaten anything since lunch. So we got back to our rooms late once again. I had to work on an english assignment and also some accounting. I ended up being up pretty late last night. I've been fairly drowsy all day today. Then tonight I had church and then got back to campus to work on my english paper a little. He was very vague on what he wanted us to write about and how he wanted us to write it. I hope I did it correctly. Anyway after that I went down to late night for some food again cause I hadn't eaten since lunch for the second day in a row. It turned out to be a decent meal tonight too. After that I had to go meet up with Pete for awhile so I could give him something and help him with some stuff. I was going to do it at church but he never showed up. Then finally I got back to my room to get some reading done for the rest of the night. I ended up trying to go to the comptuer lab with allie so we could both get out of our rooms to get studying done. I also wanted to help her with math a little too. But then they closed the comp lab early tonight because they don't have enough workers yet. So that never worked out.. It really sucked. Anyway we just had to return to our rooms and attempt our homework back here. I think I"m just going to be done for the night though. I could do some more reading but by now I don't think anything will stay in my head.. none of my nurons would connect well enought. So I'm just going to head to bed. Night!
