J Lo, You Know. Impact 06.

So I've begun my student teaching in the booming metropolis of Bryan, TX. I work at a school I affectionately call "J Lo". So far we've only had one actual day of class but three days prior spent in first period going over PROCEDURES. Needless to say, it felt a little like kindergarten and the kids were restless but due to the excitedness of our kids, necessary. I love the fact that lock-down drills are the norm these days:) And I never thought I'd love Friday jean days as much as I do! I love hangin with those kids and it was so exciting to get to love on some of my kids from last year! Before this, I had the privilege to go hang with 15 tight folks who assume the alias of Alpha Judah at Impact! Basically, it was way tight and I saw the Lord move in so many ways. This summer was a hard one and not gonna lie, i'm pretty ecstatic to be back at school! Weird huh? We won the relay for Alpha and Omega actually! And you know, my life didn't change drastically from Impact, but praise God that I got to see it completely change a ton of freshmen's lives. And that my friends, is the purpose. To impact the freshmen with Jesus Christ (no pun intended:). Right now, it's 10pm and I should really be in bed...but i'm not:) I'm still not sure what I'm up to next semester but lots of options still...if anyone wants to go to china at the drop of the hat, I have some good leads on that, maybe working at J Lo, Focus on the Family Institute, maybe working with youth or college at LHBC, another church somewhere....still no clue. As always, insight is appreciated. Not gonna lie, it's sad not having all my favorite ppl in the station. To drive by the Luther House without the boyz is depressing somewhat, and all the same exciting for yall! One half of my room is so empty, but i'm trying as hard as I can to fill it up, but still you are terribly missed oh green walls one. Oh yes, and for those who didn't know, TORI IS ENGAGED!!! Exciting! That is number 4 of upcoming weddings so that will make it 12ish by the end of the school year in May. CRAZY! Anyway, I will keep yall posted with humorous anecdotes about my students. Stay posted:) Come down anytime on Sunday nights and come to slam poetry with me in Bryan!
