Well, despite my dire post yesterday, I am here once again typing away. I spent most the day studying, big surprise there as I have my calc. exam tomorrow and chem. on Friday. Chemistry class today was one of those days where I came into class completely sure of my understanding of something , in this case entropy, and left confussed and scratching my head. (Yes, I meant confussed). Between studying I was practicing a song that I am sing at my church's Good Friday Service on, you guessed it, Friday. I only got the song yesterday; it is this hymn that I haven't ever heard.
I have spring break next week! I have already planned out my reading selections. I don't have much time for reading during school, so on breaks I try to get through as many books as possible. I have chosen the Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy series for this vacation. Now, I'm sure that you are all thinking "don't those books have atheistic overtones?" (or something to that effect). You may be right. Douglas Adams was a self professed atheist, but I am fascinated by atheist books. Authors like that have a very different way of looking at the world and that can make for a very interesting read. Don't worry, I'm not about to give up my faith just because I read one book that looks at things from a different perspective. If I was easily persuaded I would have long ago given up a Christian worldview from all the stuff my chemistry professor says every week. So I will let you know how the books are and whether or not they warrant your time in reading them. The movie however, is definitely worth seeing. It is really funny and really well done. And it really isn't all that anti-christian, not as much as some supposedly family-films.
Cheers!

Amendment 1: When I get a chance I will dispel the common christian myth that the theory of evolution violates the 2nd Law of Thermo.
Amendment 2: Enthalpy is energy that you can use to do work. Entropy not so much. In fact the definition of entropy is energy that is unavailable to do work.
Amendment 3: Has anyone tickled a sleeping dragon recently, (though if you had you wouldn't be reading this, now would you).
Amendment 4: Here is one more reason why I like Stargate Atlantis. http://gateworld.net/video/fanvideos/1205774453.shtml
