Underworld Escapes........

Found an awesome painting by Camille Corot called "Orpheus leading Eurydice from the Underworld", 1861, Oil on Canvas, now in the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Texas.

I was researching for my Classical Lit. paper, but seeing this painting inspired me to change my topic.

Just went to Stop the Traffick coffee-house music/poetry/ anything goes event. It was good.

Have a wonderful night.

A long, long time

It's been quite a while since I last posted on here. Quite a while.... Very sorry.


10 things that've happened since my last post:

1. I've gotten slow and fat over Christmas Break and the months of January and February. During Cross Country practice now it's embarrassing how bad I am. But there will be improvement....oh yes, there will be improvement.

2. I went to Passion Conference '07. 25,000 Christian college students in downtown Atlanta. It was fantastic.


3. I've figured out that I am a terrible procrastinator. Right now I need to be writing my Composition II paper for Dr. B. But I am not. Hah. (It's about the musical "Singing in the Rain" and how it depicts women.)





4. I've probably lost all the readers I had in my long absence.

5. Class Representative Elections are coming up. L----- and I need to make posters. This is one of our old ones from last semester. "Little Kids like Josh and L----! Vote Josh and L---- for Student Government Reps!"

6. I found out I'm allergic to something!!!!!!!!! (I've never been allergic to anything before, so this is an Event) I was taking amoxicillin for some sickness I had (one of those wasting diseases. not really) and I started to break out in red, itchy spots all over. It was highly uncomfortable. I went to the nurse and she told me I could never take another penicillin-based medicine again as I might die.

7. I rode a mechanical bull and fell off.

8. I'm taking piano lessons for the first time. I just learned how to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" and was very proud at the result of my strenuous practicing efforts.

9. I got to see some Tibetan Monks in January. They made a Sand Mandala in The College's theater.

10. L---- and I have organized a "Rescue the Flag" game to kick start Stop the (Human) Traffic week here at The College. We thought the word "Rescue" would be more appropriate, but it's essentially Capture the Flag. I hope we get a somewhat decent turnout.
