Update

Well, it's the first day of classes for the spring semester so I thought I'd send a quick email and update my blog.  I know it's been too long. 

Last semester God really blessed me here at seminary and he's already blessing me this semester before classes even started.  I ended up the semester with a 3.73 GPA in my classes.  This is a big surprise for me because I've never had a semester that I received all A's and B's in my classes. 

My job has been a good learning experiance for me.  I've really enjoyed working in chapel and working a lot of the conferences in our Leadership development center.  Last Friday I was asked to take on new responsibility for Media Services.  On Monday I accepted the position of Studio Supervisor in our Seminary's studio.  I have a lot to learn.  The worst part so far is keeping track of all of our inventory.  I accepted the position with the understanding that I will continue to do a lot of the jobs I've already been doing because I want to get as much experiance as I can before I graduate.  I don't want to get locked down to one area and not get the training in other types of media that I was able to get last semester. 

I was able to get home for a little while over the Christmas holiday and I had a great time seeing everyone.  Malvin and Rob's hospitality was incredible.  I'm so greatful that I have good friends that I can come home to and spend time with.  I also got to see many of my relatives which was good.  Both of my Grandmothers are 80 and above so I really cherish any of the moments I get to spend with them.  I have a picture that my uncle took of me with both of my Grandmothers sitting beside me and I will cherish that moment forever.  It was neat seeing them sit together and talk for a while about my two families and my Mom who passed away when I was in high school. 

Well, I'd better run for now. 

I'll do my best to update this blog more often.

Thanks for checking in on me.

Your friend,

Norman
