Finally a student...

Today was our third day of classes and I am tired! We had Old Testament and Greek on Thursday, the Creeds on Friday and today was church history. Each class is three hours per week, with 6-8 hours of study anticipated for the 3 hours of class time. I haven't worked like this in 20 years. I did get a study carrell, which is little office cubical at the seminary. There are about 25 or so people that get a carrell. The criteria is based mostly on how many kids you have, the more kids, the more likely you will get the carrell. My carrell mate is an RA (residential assistant) so he effectively has 40 kids he's responsible for... I only have my three!

I wish that I could say that I have deep theological thoughts to share, but really I'm just tired and I'm looking forward to tomorrow, it is a light day with only 1.5 hours of Greek. Maybe I can share more fully after we have the rest of our classes this week (and after some sleep).
