Tuesday-get the homework finished!
So tomorrow we have classes, and I'm supposed to have homework done already. Sheesh. The week goes by so quickly! I decided to put some Corey Hart I just died in your arms tonight pump up homework music on so that I can start it now.
I've decided to go to a spinning class tomorrow morning and see how it goes. I've never been to one before, and I've heard they're torturous but an amazing workout. I'm looking forward to the challenge. Kind of like a marathon. Speaking of marathons, I might do a half marathon while I'm here in Chicago..called the Shamrock Shuffle.
Today at work was uneventful. I worked on some database stuff again and continued internet research and kept the communication flowing between my teammates. I was able to go for a little walk over my lunch break and check out the area a bit more. I love the city, once again. I know I say that every day but I do feel blessed to be here and seeing a different kind of beauty than the nature back home. I see a beauty in the buildings, the busy people, the personality of the city that I've never experienced in my life. You have to look deeper to see the beauty, deeper than simply gazing upon the mountains or a colourful sunset..this is an inspired by God but Man-made beauty. Kind of like the general vs. special revelation. So anyway, these blog entries will now count towards my journal entries for my Practicum course, since all the juicy little details are here in writing. No extra work for me.
Tomorrow we have another Arts event already! I'm looking forward to it. It's at a Theatre and it's called A Young Lady from Rwanda. I'll have to read up more about it before watching it.
Tonight after a supper of tacos in a shell-bowl graciously provided by God and prepared by Ang, we all visited the Gold Coast Multiplex once again and had ourselves a heartrate-raising time. I ran a bit, played some volleyball, and relaxed in the steam room. That place is like the Rec Center at Dordt, and it's amazing because it's right here in the middle of the city. I think only rich people go there, honestly. It seems like quite an upper class place...
I got hit on my an old man one of the first few times I was there. He sells Mercedes cars. Yikes.
Okay, homework time. More tomorrow after classes, volunteering, and the arts event!
