Only in California!

Okay, so this has got to be one of the greatest things I have seen at APU. We have a large courtyard in the middle of our apartment complex, and all the apartments surround the courtyard (a giant rectangle). Well, right now, the APU Barbecue Club (yes, this is a club!) is hosting a Super Bowl party in the courtyard...they brought out a big screen TV, a smaller TV, all the couches from the laundry room, and of course, the barbecues. This is great: only in California can you tan while watching the Super Bowl...it is a little chilly today, so I probably won't go join them, but it is amusing, nonetheless! They even created "stadium seating" by putting one of the couches on chairs...I love APU!

By the way, there was an article about APU in Time Magazine this week (February 2 issue). It is a good article! I learned a lot about APU that I didn't know before! For instance, we are the second largest Christian school in the country (I knew that we were up there, but I didn't realize that we are #2). We have 8,200 students now (grad and undergrad). Wow! Check it out sometime, if you get a chance. Read the article

6 days until Mel comes! :)

Church was good today. Our new youth ministers (husband and wife team) came today, and it was great to meet them. It will be a blessing to minister with them! I am on worship team for the next two weeks, and I am singing 2 solos in the next month for "special music." I love being able to use my talent for the Lord, and to lead others into a time of worship!

Alright, I need to catch up on my homework. :) Go Patriots!!
