Last First Day

Yes the countdown is on. I successfully completed my last first day of my college career. Today was full of meeting new people, discovering how much I am going to enjoy my classes and spending lots of time in the summer sun before all warmth flees Minnesota when fall and winter charge us and turn us back into the frozen tundra for which we are known.
Have I mentioned how much I love being a history major? I am taking a Latin class this semester and it will be pretty amazing learning to read the language of Cicero, Virgil and Livy. So cool!! It is such a beautiful language too.
For history sem this is my assignment:

I get to decipher that! I can’t tell you how excited I am about that. It is a combination of Egyptian, Greek and Sumerian symbols, and we are to treat it like we would a text written in an unknown language. Right now you are giving the computer screen the same look my roommates gave me, and almost everyone else for that matter. But that’s okay because I still love doing this. : ) My roommate joked that the way to my heart is to speak a dead language.
The day was ended cooking a potato pesto soup then worshiping with the other ladies in my dorm building. My soul is thirsty for so much more of God right now. It was immensely refreshing worshiping as the body today during chapel and again at Beloved.
