It was Awesome to see Dave and I only had the morning and late evening to hang out but I am sure I will see him again soon. Dave also has been a friend I have seen in different places around the world, but mostly, Dave is my brother and has been a faithful friend in a way that no one else has. I hope God Blesses him ten times as much as he has for other people. How cool to get to see so many great friends on this trip too. Best of all, he makes me laugh a lot. But he ate all my Thai food on the way out of town. Portland is only a couple hours from Tacoma, maybe he will be around if I move here. If I keep the TravelBlog ... read more

Ok so I'm still in LA stuck in the books and have a little more than a month to go on this whole bar exam experience...but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel so I'm starting my journal today. Hopefully in a little more than 30 days I will look back on tonight and realize that the nightmare is finally over. On a more positive note, I'm really excited about being able to share this experience with everyone who logs on...at this stage of the game so many things in life are open to who knows what and it couldn't be more exhilirating. Now I've just got to buckle down and get through the next 4+ weeks. I feel like the little engine...I think I can, I think I can, I think ... read more

I feel overwhelmed with this trip. I needed the renewal so much and its so amazing how much better its been than anything I could have anticipated. The church I spent the week at definately has been experiencing revival in a deep sense. I guess the movement is happening with the young people, because they were some of the happiest and free-est group ever! I made a lot of new friends and saw a lot of old ones. People from around the world were at this conference for this church in the middle of nowhere and letting go of burdens that have followed them their whole life. It was a privelege to be a part of. If I were to choose a place to go after seminary right now I think it would be Tacoma to ... read more

I love New York. Each day I wake up with a long list of things to do but each day, despite my best efforts to stay focused, I keep on getting distracted and wander down side streets. I end up seeing eveything and nothing.... Friday I tried to get tickets to see Shakespeare in the Park, after waiting for 2 hours in the heat of the day they gave the last ticket to the person standing 3 people ahead of me in the queue. Shrugging it off, went to meet up with Rob at the Grand Central Station. For those of you who have never been there it is a totally awesome station with the star consellations painted on the roof (reminiscent of the sistene chapel) what makes it even more impressive is the fact that ... read more
