mini golf

Today I handed in my last assignment for my Heaven, Hell, Angels, and Demons course. Feels good to be done. But actually it wasn't weighing on me very heavily, because I don't have that wonderful "stress relieved" feeling.

Last night I took a break from my paper on demonization and mental illness and went mini golfing with some people from Focus.
I gave Steve my camera to take pictures because I was playing the game and he wasn't.

I would like to mention that although I was playing the game that does not mean I was playing it well.

Josh had a little trouble with his club...
"Why did you forget to get one?"

"because I'm stupid"

our golf balls made a triangle by the triangle on the green

so impressive

it's true...eventually you can blow the golf ball in the hole

Oh yeah! in other oh-so-exciting news, I got an A on my assignment on Ecclesiastes.

AND the blurb.com people are going to print me another book (that's right this time) for free. sweet!

AND (seriously, today is a really good day)

We got a house!!!

The Valley Song

You have led me to the sadness
I have carried this pain
On a back bruised, nearly broken
I'm crying out to You

I will sing of Your mercy
That leads me through valleys of sorrow
To rivers of joy

When death like a gypsy
Comes to steal what I love
I will still look to the heavens
I will still seek your face
But I fear you aren't listening
Because there are no words
Just the stillness and the hunger
For a faith that assures

I will sing of Your mercy
That leads me through valleys of sorrow
To rivers of joy

Alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia

While we wait for rescue
With our eyes tightly shut
Face to the ground using our hands
To cover the fatal cut
Though the pain is an ocean
Tossing us around, around, around
You have calmed greater waters
Higher mountains have come down
