This one goes out to the soon to be 2007-08 academic year, and things which I am looking forward to within it (in no particular order)… (more…)

So this summer is absolutely crazy busy. I’ve been having a blast, but it’s been more draining than I would’ve imagined. Most of this is due to the beast that is known as “Oklahoma!” The final show is this afternoon. My call is just over an hour from now, and then it’ll be time to put the cowboy hat and boots away.

I’m Orlando, FL, for the 2007 National LCMS youth gathering. It pretty awesome, especially being around 20-some thousand people worshiping the same God, knowing that we’re all connected in Christ. AMEN!

Summer is almost done…at least for me. I have to be back on campus by the 13th of August for a week of RA training and then Welcome Week. As I look back at the summer, I didn’t do as much as I would have liked. I did too much of nothing…but nonetheless, the summer is always the most enjoyable time of the year for me. My girlfriend Jayme just got back from three and a half weeks in Tanzania, Africa for a mission trip. She had a great time and it was nice to hear all about it. (more…)

it’s been such a long time!  too long, i fear.  much has happened since i last posted, and rather than try to recap everything in detail, i shall give a brief overview.

Today marks three weeks until I arrive back in MN. I’m glad that summer has come and gone as fast as it has. For now though, Florida is in my sights. (more…)

–Opening Weekend of Oklahoma! was this past weekend. It went well. I think the cast was a little miffed by the lower numbers the first two nights, but they were very enthusiastic. I’ll take that over a huge quiet crowd. I gotta work on the dream sequence a little bit before Wednesday’s show. (more…)

I’m glad I’m not superstitious.

Tomorrow I head to the southern reaches of Indiana for a good friends wedding. It should be a good time, even if the drive is boring.

We’re already creeping into Mid-July! I can’t believe it.

Two Things: Harry Potter 7 comes out next week (the movie comes out tomorrow, but I’m not as hyped about that) AND Oklahoma! opens on Friday–the 13th. I’m not too worried. I feel prepared and all. Yes, I even feel prepared to do “authentic Western boot clogging” on stage. You’ll just have to come and witness the spectacle for yourself (mvct.org).

Well, it’s America’s 231st birthday, and I’m sitting at Panera using their free Wi-fi. The past few weeks have flown by because of work, graduation parties, a bout with a cold, playing music, and enjoying all that summer has to offer. (more…)
