I am incredibly happy right now!
–{this rambling was moved to the extended entry and is denoted with an asterik(*)}–
Anyway, to get to the point of the story…
I got the disc! It’s in the system now and should reach me in under two weeks, which is great! All I needed to do was register my Game Cube and two of four “promotional” games — both of which I happened to have received for Christmas this year.

Today I went to the Spring 2004 Career Showcase with Joy. This is the first time I actually went to take it seriously. I was dressed up in the suit and tie and actually handed out my resumé to people, which was pretty nervewracking at first, but after the first person/company it was pretty much a breeze.
Hopefully, people will call me up in a few weeks asking for an interview. It’s cool if they don’t though, because I may want to do this seminary thing after all is said and done anyway.

Today I went to the infirmary with Jenn, because my knee has been bothering me a bit. I really wanted to get in to a physical therapist to strengthen up both my knees so I could go out and play soccer and may go paintballing some too.
I didn’t get what I wanted though. Instead, I found out that I had a capsulated tear of a my patellar tendon. Whatever that means. There was another thing wrong too, but that was even harder to understand and remember.
All I know is that I have to wear an immobilizer on my knee for ten days. That means I will be missing four soccer games, which as you probably know, is quite possibly the worst news I could have gotten today.
Woe is me. 
–jk!
Anyway, pray for my knee troubles if you can.

For most of my life I’ve been inundated with information about (and almost entirely against) racism. I lived in an area of Florida that was at one time during my life the most segregated city in the US, but I still knew people from many different races and backgrounds through school and sports.
Knowing people from almost every background, traveling the world, and still receiving a litany of anti-racism information (from schools, media, church, and individuals) would always get me to thinking and worrying about racism and prejudice.

My roommate, Mike, is now getting the Wall Street Journal delivered to our place every day for one of his classes. He doesn’t really read it much, but I do, and I like it.
Today is a break, so I got to read back issues(?) of it from the past week, which is when it started. I’m done reading for now, but it was fun to read nearly dozen excellent articles.

I went paintballing today. It was awesome! We managed to get seven people to come out and paintball with us — Jenn, Lana, Larry, Jesse, Jason, Nate and I went and we had a blast. It was my first time, so I’ll want to tell some stories, and post my pictures, but it is getting late so I’ll update this later and add all that good stuff in the extended entry.

A lot of good ideas die from lack of initial interest, inadequate early adoption, poor support, and swift, united criticism.

Friday night I went with Joy and Jessica to Gator Nights and watched Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl again.

Well, the first week of the new semester is over, so I finally have time to write again. So, I guess I’ll start this up again by writing about what I’ve been so busy doing that I haven’t been writing.
