Happy White Day

Happy White Day from the great country of South Korea. Yup, today is White day. It is the day where the guys give the girls something this time around. So any guy that received something for Valentines day is usually obliged or blessed to give the girl back something. So, I didn't really have anything to give anyway. Haha....although one of our guys did something special for his girlfriend. He had two lines of candles leading to his room (the tea type candles), and then in his room he had a big heart of red tea candles. Man, it was so classy....so he lead her to the heart. He said she almost cried. As for what other guys did...I'm not really sure.

Things here have been going pretty good....not too much going on, doing the same old same old with the dorm. I think guys are getting anxious for this quarter to end as it just seems that the stress has been a lot higher. Yeah, not much going on. Monday we did sound for chapels, which was fun. I was able to edit video for the chapel this week of clips of the kids being asked what they thought about truth and what is truth. It was intriguing to hear what these kids said. Some very relativistic answers and some very religious answers. Across the board. Also, for middle school chapel I got to play electric guitar for it. That was a lot of fun. Man, I love being able to praise God with the electric guitar!

Oh, this evening was fun as I had a game night/dinner at my apartment. Well, we were going to go out to eat, but then someone recommended Grilled Cheese and Tomato soup. So we quickly ran to the store and got some stuff to make it. Then we came back to my apartment and made grilled cheese and soup. It was quite good. Then played Uno and Dutch Blitz, quite fun, although my final score of 20 in dutch blitz wasn't exactly the best. So that was my White Day.

The rest of this week is chill as I only work tomorrow and then have Friday and Saturday off. Looking forward to that, and then one more week and I'm gone to Malaysia. Exciting stuff. Everyone is so shocked when they hear I'm going by myself. I think it'll be good. As much as I'd love to share it with someone (which I would've loved if someone could've gone), it'll be fun to climb a mountain and do some snorkeling while during that time also focusing on God and how to grow stronger in Him. I'll probably take along some books to read as I have some good reading right now. So yeah, please keep the dorms in prayer and the students. We can all use prayer and just pray for the kids in general as this quarter is finishing up and we are going into fourth quarter. Pray also for the seniors that they don't slack during this last quarter even though most have been accepted into American Universities already. Well, that is all. I'll leave you with some photos of the game night and my apartment painted. Blessings, Mike
