You want a fun oxymoron?

How about "Mennonite power!"?

My day began at 7:45am to the tune of some song that my cell phone is programmed to play. Because my alarm clock is broken, I've been forced to use my cell phone as an alarm. The reason I got up so early was so that I could attend church... the same church that Jenny goes to. So we walked to the cube around 9ish and got into a van. A few minutes later, Craig, Shalako, and Denise (???) came and joined us in the big white van. Then we made stops around campus: east quad for one person (Pearl), the hill for two people, and north campus for no one, and then we went to Huron Hills Baptist Church. When I walked in, a lady commented on my Goshen College sweatshirt which I was wearing. It was fun that people actually knew about Mennonites. Then we had sunday school and I met Kat and Luke. The church service was next and it was different but it wasn't anything I hadn't seen before. I kind of reminded me of the Methodist church in Au Gres when I went there one time when I was in jr. high. After church, another person (possibly the guest speaker) commented on my Goshen College sweatshirt and he said that he was an anabaptist. So that was cool. And that was my morning.

This afternoon I had the best of intentions to do homework and study for my calc midterm. But when I tried to study for calc, I couldn't think straight because I was so tired, and so I went back to my room and took a 3-hour nap. By the time I got up, it was time for dinner, and so I ate dinner while watching TV.

It's officially been over one week since I've talked to any of my friends from home (excluding Vanessa). Ross has called me a couple times but I was never around when he called. It's sad. But now I'm talking to Ross, so that's good, but it was still over a week.

I must do something productive now.
