More Coffee Needed.

It's the night before classes start, and it's pretty quiet here.  I can hear the hum of the furnace... I turned it on a couple of days ago.  That's crazy talk from the likes of me, but I don't want my new roommate to freeze to death in her new space.

Despite all the usual feelings of inadequacy and anxiety about the new year, I am fairly excited to see what the year will bring.  I have managed to unpack myself in record time, and saved a few boxes for when I need something, completely unrelated to the sheer quantity of homework I will undoubtedly have to get through, to do.

For those of you that don't know, there have been a few changes to the ol' curriculum and schedule at ye olde Sem.  This year brings a new treat (read: unbelievably massive stress for yours truly)... 3-week intensive courses.

As per history, this year I have a large load.  5 courses in the Fall, one in January, and 3 in the Winter.  They are as follows:

Fall

1. Biblical Theology (Sept.10-28)
2. Psalms (Oct.1-19)
3. Pastoral Integration (Oct.29-Nov.16)
4. St. Augustine (whole semester)
5. Foundations Youth Ministry (whole semester)

January

1.  A one-week intensive in some upper level History, currently dubbed "Mystery History" by the senior class

Winter

1. Romans (Jan.28-Feb.15)
2. Pastoral Care: Marriage and Family (Mar.18-Apr.5)
3. Worship, Mission, & Evangelism (Apr.8-26)

And if you can follow that, you're a better person than I.  Save for the big chuck o' time mid-Feb to mid-March, I aim to be freaking out and super busy.  It'll be an experience.  And hopefully one you can all follow along with.

Indulás! (Here we go!)
