Contentment?....Joy?....Definitely not lackidaisicalness....

Today is quite the good day. I found out about making it on Wheat team (working with Janet, Angie, Nate, Gary, and my good friend Emily) and that I'm giving Talk 6 for TEC 67. I'm very, very, very excited for this TEC. I only know of a couple people from Blue Earth so far who have decided to go through (at least they better send in their apps), but hopefully there will be a couple more yet before the deadline.

** Redundancy Alert for Shayla** My school is randomly 2 hours late. They gave us 2 days like that this year, and the first one was in September. We have a homeroom to deal with registration for the first 25 minutes that we're there, so my first hour class is only about 25 minutes long. In other words, I only have to deal with advanced algebra for less than half an hour. I'm very happy about that.

Shayla asked me tonight how life was, and I really felt good about my response. My life right now is great. I can't think of a single thing that I feel is going wrong, and everything just seems to go pretty smoothly. Nothing is too redundant or horribly boring in school, TEC is going to come faster than anyone expects, my relationships are pretty sound, and the weather was fantastic this week. The only negatives I can see in the near future are the projected storms we might get this weekend and the other involves my sleeping pattern. I screwed it up this week, but it hasn't had too much of an effect on me yet.

Lent is different for me this year, even though I never usually give something up for the season. I decided not to give anything up, and instead I took something on. Seeing as I'm very inconsistant in reading my Bible, I decided to make that my daily habit during Lent in hopes that it will carry on after the season is over. So far so good, but 2 days doesn't say much. Everyone who gave something up for Lent is definitely in my prayers because it can be very, very tough.

On that note, I'm sending my content, joyous self back upstairs. I slept for a little while already, but Leviticus is always a good way to put yourself to sleep.
