Late Night Catharsis

These are simply the raw thoughts I bump into throughout the day and while writing. Don't think that this is the extent of me, what I write is only what I'm comfortable sharing with the world. This blog is not a substitute for knowing me personally just like reading the bible is not a substitute for knowing God personally. Talk to me. It'll be good for you. Comments are very welcome. I love hearing what people have to say about my stuff. Say something.

Wii Are the Champions

Oh the sweet sweet victory of it all. If I could pick a theme for this week, it would be Triumph. Or Triumphalism (as my Coms prof would say).

Firstly I would like to thank God, my Creator, Saviour and Lord for loving me, even when I was at the bottom of the B-'s. I would also like to thank all my devoted brain cells for their support and inspiration. I could not have ever dreamed of being awarded these A+'s without them. And thank you for posting delightful engaging and distracting comments to nourish my sense of procrastination when I got too overwhelmed with the ridiculousness of what I was studying.

I gots two A+'s on my midterms for GNST300 and COMS335. That just tickles me pink.

And for any of you who doubted for a moment, my D.G. most certainly won the Dessert Night contest for our festive "Gingerbread house of the wise man that was built on the solid foundation of "salvation (of Jesus Christ)-in-a-pan". And, to my surprise and delight, there were six girls from my D.G. there to support our entry. It was quite the time. So was our D.G. the next day when Brian awarded us the spoils of our victory by serving us dessert while wearing a suit. I think that combination of light pink and (dare I guess) green tie and shirt should be dubbed the "serving the Bamboozlers" outfit. That's twice in the last two weeks. He's on a roll. Don't worry Brian, we will return the favour your D.G. gave us the week before. And thank you again.

Amy's choir recital was also on Friday. It was a sumptuous time. I am completely and fully in love with classic Christmas music (but most certainly not with Santa Claus songs or the infamous Hippo song). The music was, and is, always uplifting and inspiring. I'm listening to Handles "Messiah" as I write this. I'm very proud of Amy, she did splendidly. The seven dollars for admission was a steal for such a rich and fun performance.

Then, after the recital, some of us went to Taryns for a Wii party. Yes, he has one. Lucky huh? We tried out pretty much all the sports and Taryn showed the girls (not the guys cuz they didn't want it spoiled for when they have their own they can love and cherish) some of the new Zelda too. I had a barrel full of fun. I think everyone did. And I like winning.

"Taryyyyn! The girls are better at this than we are!!"
-A.T.

Hehehe.

Sure, you can control the universe with me! But I digress; what I really wanted to know is, what is this infamous Hippo song of which you speak?

Well, you asked for it..."I wanna hippopotamus for Christmas, only a hippopotamus will do. No Crocodiles, no Rhinoceroses, I only like hippopotamuses...etc."

I sincerely apologize if anyone gets this stuck in their head.

And thank you for letting me rule the world with you!!! :D
