well i got back from my "Crazy European Adventures" on Dec. 6 2006. I was more excited to be home at that moment than any other time in my life. i learned to never take my family for granted! as usual we had a wonderful Xmas then i went to school for new years because i had 2 short courses to take. well i had a pretty good semester, i got to cook a lot and that was wonderful, i also got to travel quite a bit. i'd like to thank ashley and the beavis family and also samijo and teresa for opening up their homes and kitchens for me to utilize. this semester i wasn't very involved in much other than my studies. yeah i played basketball, volleyball, and softball but i was in my room a lot which is very unusual. my basketball team was pretty good, volleyball team went undefeated for the 5th straight yr now, and our softball team won the tournament. also PKA had an awesome group of directors and a great cast which led us to not only win makin' music but to complete a sweep in every category which was amazing. i went to riverboat this yr with an amazing girl and a really great group of people. i'm also dating this amazing girl, whose name would happen to be erin haddock, which makes me a very lucky guy.
well plans for the summer: originally i was planning on working for the state (PA) this summer BUT God has a funny way of guiding us to what we really need to be doing. sooo after not getting the jobs i thought i was going to get, i was given the opportunity to go to Honduras for a month, so i took it. then i was given the opportunity to be the part time youth minister here at Ktown COC, so i took it. then i was praying that God would give me a job that pays well, and here came VNA with a good job, so i took it. God has really been good to me and i thank him everyday for all the blessings he's given me. i hope everyone has a great summer and keeps in touch!
