Life

If I were more creative, I would have titled this post something better than “Life.” How dull of me.

In attempt to persuade me to write on my web site more frequently, Stan described how people begin to worry about him when he doesn’t post for a few days. I hardly think people start to worry about me when I don’t post for a few days – at least I hope not. If so, then it would appear as if I fell off the face of the earth. I think the concern people have over Stan not posting is a sign he is too addicted to Blogging and should spend his time in other activities. The thing is, though, he seems to do a great job of balancing a million activities in the little time he’s got.

Anyway … here are some of the highlights (if you could call them that) of my life right now:

Lydia and I broke up. If you care to know more detail, ask. I think I’ve gone into detail with all my close friends, who don’t even read this, so there’s not much use in going into too much depth for the whole world to see. All in all, I think breaking up is what is best. That doesn’t make it any easier, though. I’m learning a lot about trusting in God and have been reminded over and over of Isaiah 55:8-9 –

For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

As great as Lydia is, it appears that we’re not meant to be together. I think I’d rather realize that now than 5 years down the road.

School is crazy busy this quarter. I’ve told myself and my friends over and over again that I couldn’t have broken up with Lydia at a better time. Last Wednesday, I worked on school-related stuff for about 12 or 13 hours. I’ve got my first quarter of SDL (Software Development Lab). I can’t go into much depth about the project my team is working on because of the NDA we signed upon entering the three-course sequence. Then I’ve got Operating Systems design class, in which we write an OS for the Motorola MC68HC11 processor. I’ve got Dr. Meier for that class and have found his teaching to be excellent, as he is easy to follow and is knowledgeable and experienced with the material.

Well I think that’s a pretty good overview of what’s new with me right now. As always, if you want more detail, it’s best to just ask me. I’d like to write on here a little more frequently – it helps me to unwind a little bit. Funny time to be doing that … at 8:30 in the morning. I stayed at Stan‘s place last night so I could drive him to O’Hare this morning. After dropping him off at 6:20, I drove back to Milwaukee and am relaxing a little bit before going to class at 9.
