two down... very glad that bio is done.
some good news from 300 miles away, my MOM is FINALLY HOME! I got to talk to her today. I'm tempted to go home for the weekend just to see her but i'll be home next week.
Taking a break from studying. wish i could take a permanent break but that's fine... just one more week. :) and the gsi said that i'm doing well in ochem so that's encouraging, i've been scoring 60s and 70s on the tests which is kind of discouraging. but anyway...yeah. i was pretty apathetic about this bio final simply because it was evolution. yeah i liked the plant biology because the professor gave it a medicinal spin, but the evolution as jeff and i like to say "IS ALL STINKIN BUNK" well he didn't say stinkin but anyway. i didn't have the most positive attitude about this section of the course because i don't agree with what they teach and some of the information is just not consistent with other realms of science like chemistry and physics. so i don't know. it's in the past i can't help but think that my behavior wasn't wise. the more mature thing to do would be to learn and listen to what they have to say and to just be respectful and study the material without complaining because after all i did voluntarily sign up for the class. also, when what was taugh contradicted my personal beliefs, i could have questioned respectfully and tried to bring up other issues that weren't covered that might contradict what the professor has to say and have this boldness to share the Gospel... but i didn't and it's a shame. there's this fear of talking to professors about "religious issues" because they're so much more academically "experienced" and can probably shoot down whatever arguments i have because i'm a mere 2nd year and they've gone through, what, many many years of schooling and teaching? so yeah i have the disadvantage here, but then again i'm forgetting what kind of Power i'm getting strength from. If God can create a world fully sustained within itself filled with life then He is able to combat whatever academic arguments against His existence. like Moses, I keep saying i'm not well spoken i'm not good enough, in essence i don't want to be the one You send. but how effective is that?
