After One Week



One week of summer down. And, probably my favorite week because most college students are just finishing their finals and high schoolers aren't free yet either, thus I feel privileged to be on vacation already. : )

What to do this summer? Well, it will be a different summer, that's for sure (see my other blog for more of that), but hopefully some fun-ness too! I'm planning on reading a lot and my list of books keeps growing. Here's a few of the sought-after titles:
  • Irresistible Revolution (finished!)
  • The Myth of a Christian Nation (working on it...)
  • Choosing Against War
  • Jesus for President
  • Secret Message of Jesus
  • Velvet Elvis
  • Sex God
  • Signs for the Journey
  • Blue Like Jazz
  • some other random books...

Of course, there's other things to do too, like:

- working on compiling more recipes in my album-of-family-favorites, i.e. my own cookbook instead of using mom's all the time.
- learning how to cook
- reaching out
- working through and moving on
- organization
- decoration plans (for next year's (hopefully) bigger dorm room)
- learning more about and growing in patience, grace
- maybe making cards

I'm sure other things will pop up too, but this is good for starters, good for filling in those gaps not occupied by work. Oh, and extra sleep is always lovely as well.

hey, what did you think of irresistible revolution? im almost done with Jesus for prez... its heavy, but i think you'll probably end up appreciating shane/chris' ability to articulate very well some difficult topics related to war/government/politics and following Jesus (based on know what you think about a few things already). but it will be a hard book for a lot of people to swallow...much harder than irresistible rev. i believe.
hope your summer is a good break from studying. what clinical rotation are you in? (i'm in 3 i think? i start psych, whichever that one is).
