Week Four

I have officially been in Lubbock for a month. Where did the time go? Oh wait I remember, it was spent in the library, studying. 
 
In undergrad, the Land of Study was a title only given to the sacred time needed to study for midterms and finals. In grad school the Land of Study is where I daily reside. I know I talk about how much I study every week, but I don't really do much else, so thats what I am going to write about most of the time.
 
I took another test this week, for my Physiology class and aced it. I am grateful for the difficulty of my undergrad physiology class because I am much better prepared than my peers for this course; thank you Baylor! After the test Diana and I went shopping to put some finishing touches on my apartment, and it is so cute now! Please come visit me so I can show it off!
 
I was again reminded this week of how amazing the Lord is as He continued to develop friendships. Notes and phone calls of encouragement from people back home always brighten my day. And no one will ever be able to replace my darling Posse, but I am finding different kinds of friends who encourage me and challenge me and make me laugh so that I don't feel alone in the middle of the West Texas desert. 
 
To continue on the disorganized path of this post, I would like to share a few more Lubbock discoveries I have made.
The tumbleweeds are real and they move quickly.
The animals I previously thought were chipmunks on campus are actually ground squirrels.
When it rains, it floods and hails. This weather is fierce.
My car will never be dust free, even after I wash it.

Ok. Thats about it.
