I joined Club Waterskiing. We've been out once, and I dropped a ski and cut the wake on one and stuff, but I didn't get up on one, so I guess that's the goal for today. I don't have chem lab this afternoon, so we're taking off around noon, and I am so ridiculously pumped.
Classes are pretty good. Chemistry, rather than being hard like I expected, is just boring, plus every week the teacher posts a webassign on Friday night and makes it due Monday morning. Very, very uncool. And I'm talking 50 point webassigns (one point per question), not just a couple problems. I like Swahili. It's kind of a fun language. Linguistics is fairly interesting. Peoples of Africa is absolutely fascinating. I love it! And I'm really enjoying my fiction class. It involves a minimal amount of work, good reading, and great discussions.
Lizzy (friend/RUF intern) took me to the Fresh Market yesterday, where I stocked up on fruit and trail mix. It made me so happy. None of the dining halls here ever have any good, fresh fruit.
I've been going to RUF events a lot and really bonding with the people there. The preaching is really solid, and all the people are just so loving and Christ-focused and encouraging. I'm still looking for a church. I've visited two, and both were pretty good. The first was a little too formal for me, and the preaching was okay. The second was better in both regards, but I'm still not sure. I'll just keep searching, and if I need to I can always come back to that second one.
