Day Four... a very happy Friday

I don't know why specifically, but I have been so HAPPY the past couple of days! I've been bouncy and optimistic and smiling. There are quite a few possible reasons for this happiness:
- Very good quiet time yesterday
- My sister is coming to visit in a month
- I LOVED my class this morning
- I have a job interview next week
- I stayed up until way-to-late having a fun roomie conversation
- There was real rain (I love rain) last night
- It snowed this morning

So there have been many happy things lately. I'm kind of thinking my prayer to fall more in love with God is being answered and I'm excited about that and just excited to be more in love with Him.

About the class I loved this morning: I've been looking forward to this one since I signed up for it in October. Cross-Cultural Church Planting. I was more excited about the "cross-cultural" than the church planting but it sounded interesting and I've heard great things about the professor. When we got in the room this morning, the few students who were there had pulled up chairs so the seating was in a circle. We sat around like that introducing ourselves. He asked questions about what we wanted to do and where we were from and then talked about himself. He's been pretty much everywhere worldwide as a church planter. He recently planted and now pastors a church I visited in the first couple weeks of living out here (it's a really good church, just far away). There are nine students in the class. Since there are so few of us, we're going to our professor's house for dinner in a couple weeks (he really wants the four of us girls to get to know his wife) and we're planning a trip to visit a church plant in Canada over a weekend sometime. So I'm thinking it will be a really good class. I like the group and can't wait to get to know them.

The amount of reading I have to do has increased with the new homework from this class, so I'm off to do that. So excited it's the weekend!
