WAHOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I just feel like exploding with excitement!)

YES!!! My internet is finally working! Now I can once again connect with the real (er, blogging) world. ;) So has anything interesting been going on? What have I missed? Clue me in! At Judson, I've been photographing


The flooding by Volkman

The Herrick Chapel

Fireworks at the University Bash (I took 126 fireworks pictures!)
(it changed from Judson College to University this year)


I've also been in class. I know, shocking! I just love it here. The professors, the friendships, (the Dean of Students-- aka my aunt :). Pretty much everything. I have to admit, though. They DO push you harder. A good thing in the long run, but a tad overwhelming at first. (Could you tell by my last post?!) ;D I'm all better now. I've healed. ;) Many thanks to everyone who prayed for me, always appreciated!

So, today I had drawing class. It was so much fun. We used charcoal (so we got really messy!) There was a pile of stuff in the middle of the room and we were supposed to draw what we saw. Started out with one object at a time. After a little while, we went around (clockwise) to the next person and drew on top of their drawing. It was SO MUCH FUN!!! It was a little tricky at first, but then I really go into it. When the paper got too full, we were supposed to wipe it off with our hands (that's when we got dirty). It was so much fun. And you couldn't tell how bad my drawings were! Always a plus! Our homework for the weekend was going around campus and doing 50 quick sketches. I know it sounds like a lot, but it really isn't that bad. (And that was not sarcasm, mom :) [Oh, BTW, design class is fun. It just takes a long time.] I like all of my professors. My psychology teacher actually taught my mom when she went here (For reasons of privacy, I won't say how long)

AND MY COMPUTER GOT FIXED!!!! I'm really excited about that. I hope I will be able to sleep tonight....

Good going Margaret,
If you keep up with this kind of enthusiasm, you are going to have a wonderful experience at the University of Judson. Way to go.
