Highlights of the Week...

Thursday: Was asked to sing the National Anthem at a women's soccer game...gladly accepted. I will probably be singing next week at a game as well. I'm now hoping to sing at our basketball game against Biola in March...that would be awesome! (Biola is our "rival", so that game is always packed and exciting...needless to say, I've never been able to attend a game vs. Biola because the game ALWAYS falls on Election Day.) The National Anthem is a song that is so dear to me...I absolutely love it, and it is such an honor to sing that song at events (one of my life goals is to sing that song at a NASCAR race...yes, I'm serious!).

Friday: Was asked at the last minute to go to an Angels' game with 3 people from my Bible study group. They have season tickets, in great seats. It was awesome! I'm not really a fan of any particular baseball team, but the game is pretty fun. Great evening with awesome people. And the Angels won!!

Another highlight: I discovered (thanks to Chris and Jen Burgan last night) another alternative to milk! They are also lactose intolerant, like so many Americans, and they gave me tons of tips.

The product that they actually had me try was "Almond Milk." It is SOOO good! Seriously, I know it may sound weird, and I am definitely not a fan of most milk substitutes (i.e. Rice Milk, Soy Milk, etc), but this one was good! I tried regular and chocolate. I am really excited! I am pretty much getting to the point of having to cut ALL dairy out of my diet, so I am searching for alternatives. EXCITING!

I have about 400 pages to read today, which is just a bit overwhelming...but that's okay. That's why I'm in college! It really was a great (and FAST) week...many adventures, with many more to come, I'm sure.

Have a great day!
