Your favorite blogger/ninja/dinosaur, that's who!
It's been a fairly long time since my last post, and I apologize for that. Life has picked up the pace this semester, and I just feel a little burned out when it comes to writing. Nevertheless, I once again take up my keyboard and mouse and give you the latest update from deep within troll country.
Hi. It's been awhile. Where to begin?
Ah, yes! Trollway to Love! Me and my lovely girlfriend Sierra were selected to participate in Trinity's version of the newlywed game (despite our lack of holy matrimony), in which we competed against three other couples: Zach Flipse and his fiance, an unknown couple, and Pastor Bill and his wife. Needless to say, we were at an extreme disadvantage, considering the other couples had known each other longer and had seen the competition before. Nonetheless, we had a blast and got to make some fun intro videos with Curly!

What else have I been up to? A fair question. One word: Skyrim. Sherlock finished building my computer, so I have a fully fledged gaming desktop in my dorm room. I've been playing nonstop for days. It's definitely become a candidate for my favorite game of all time. I have a house and a family, I've become the top assassin in the Dark Brotherhood, I'm Thane of Whiterun, I've joined the Stormcloak rebellion and liberated all of Skyrim from Imperial control, and completely forgotten the main quest. I think it had something to do with dragons. Meh. I eat dragons for breakfast.
I've also fallen in love with Lindsey Stirling. Turns out she has an entire album, which I've been listening to every chance I get. For those of you who don't know, Lindsey Stirling is a violinist who is known for dancing while she plays, usually in the middle of nowhere wearing a ridiculous costume. She's done covers of Game of Thrones, Halo, Legend of Zelda, Lord of the Rings, and more. Her album is more dubstep-esque, but heavily features her incredible violin talent.
Oh yeah! I got a job! I am now the guitarist at Peace CRC in South Holland. They're looking to make their service more attractive to younger generations, and they want my input on how to do so while keeping their worship centered on praising God. This is exactly what I've been learning with the other worship scholars here at Trinity. God is good.
Did I mention Manly Movie Night? What started as me and Tater chilling in my room watching the Grey one night has turned into a scheduled weekly South Hall event with a following of about a dozen guys. You don't miss MMN. You just don't.
If you could all pray for Sierra right now, I would really appreciate it. Her grandmother just passed away, and it's been really hard on her. Pray for peace.
So yeah. That's my life right now. I know you've all missed this. Admit it. You have. Yeah, even you. And you too. Don't give me that look. Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
Song for today: Phantom of the Opera Medley by Lindsey Stirling. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCL94-MsxYc You're welcome.
Well, that's all for today, folks! Share, comment, do whatever. This is America. But seriously. I'm shamelessly self-promoting in hopes of receiving feedback.
Laterzzzzzzzzzzz.
