Schmecken Sie den Regenbogen!

What have I been up to this weekend? Not much, but more than most weekends I think.

On Friday, I learned how to edit videos using iMovie. I'm glad I learned... it's a nice skill to have, and now I can use UM's movie editing stuff when I need it. Before Cru, I stopped by Alison's room. Paul was there and he taught me and Alison how to stack the deck for Euchre. I'm still working on that skill, but it's pretty much the same concept as what I was using to stack my deck in Dutch Blitz. But don't worry, I don't stack my deck in Dutch Blitz anymore. It never helped me win anyway.

Saturday I met Tian at Starbucks and we went to Borders to pick out a book. The book we finally picked was Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, which Tian randomly had two copies of, and so we each bought a CD instead of a book. I got Kutless' new CD Strong Tower. After Borders, we went to Amer's to study. At five, I went to the UGLi to write our German script with my group. We basically finished it and it seems really good, but we'll see.

This morning I dragged myself out of bed and to church. It was the first time that I had gone to this church when there wasn't any snow around. Afterwards, I ate lunch with Shalako. I had never really had a conversation with him before; he's a really interesting and kind person. Later in the afternoon while I was trying to read my great books book, I fell asleep. I'm not sure how long I slept, but it was around 2ish hours. The first time I fell asleep, I dreamed about the word "quagmire" (a word which I had just read in the book), and then I woke up because "quagmire" reminded me that I was reading my book and that I needed to continue. But then when I was a couple pages from the end of the chapter, I fell asleep for good. The evening consisted of calc and euchre deck stacking. Fun times.

That's all. There's only 22 more days of class left for this semester. I have a calc midterm in 10 days.

Words of the day:
-quagmire - land with a soft muddy surface; a difficult or precarious situation, a predicament.
-simplism - the tendency to oversimplify an issue or a problem by ignoring complexities or complications.
