Officially in Seminary
So, I've been at seminary for almost 4 weeks now (2 weeks of "Prolog," AKA Orientation, and almost 2 weeks of classes). I figured I should update this so people know what's been going on!
First of all, the picture above is of the Henry Muhlenberg statue at the entrance to the campus-- he is all decked out! (Yes, this is the same statue I'm standing next to in my last blog entry). It's a tradition here at LTSP that the new students decorate the statue for the start of the new academic year. Our theme was pretty cool, if I do say so myself.
Some people may ask, how is seminary? What's it like? Well, it's an awful lot of work. This past weekend, all I did was schoolwork and go to church. Also, Hebrew is kicking my butt. I'm hoping that as the semester goes on, I'll get into a groove and be able to balance out work with play. I'm learning a lot, and really enjoy what I'm learning! :)

GAHH! I had such a beast of a time with Hebrew...just wait till Strong/Weak Qal verbs and such - Nifel, Piel, Pual...
Which Hebrew text are you using?
Anyway...hope things go well, and next time you come back up this way we'll have to get together and compare notes.

A word of advice from a second year... YOU MUST PLAY... if you do not play will not enjoy seminary.. plus normally the play ends up having some theological implication!

By the way, I done understand your problem about Hebrew.
If you cain't deal with Hebrew, then just get yourself a girly brew. You knows, something with a umbrella in the glass, or lots of strawberry syrup.
(You girls are so cute when you is trying to drink he-man drinks or do manly-jobs).

Yo! Rebecca! You there!?!?
Have you considered having "guest bloggers" on your blog? Generates interest and traffic.
I'd be happy to do it for you. I have a million Blonde jokes! Blonde photos too. I'm sure some bimbo jokes and pics would make you a big hit at the Seminary! (Which reminds me, what IS a "Seminary," anyhow? Is that something like a fertility clinic? And how do I get a job there?)
No need to thank me. Happy to do it.

You know, I'm starting to get annoyed. I comment and comment and no one ever comments back.
Ever.
What, do I stink? Am I a member of a lower class? What?
Dan, give me some help here. Tell me that you care. Talk to me buddy. I'm dying out here.
