Super Duper Tuesday

Yes, it’s that day of the year. Super Tuesday. “In the United States, Super Tuesday commonly refers to the Tuesday in early February or March of a presidential election year when the greatest number of states hold primary elections to select delegates to national conventions at which each party’s presidential candidates are officially nominated. More delegates can be won on Super Tuesday than on any other single day of the primary calendar, and accordingly, candidates seeking the presidency traditionally must do well on this day to secure their party’s nomination” (Wikipedia.org). 24 states held primaries or caucuses today, with 52 percent of all pledged Democratic Party delegates and 41 percent of the total Republican Party delegates at stake. It was a good night for John McCain, and Barack Obama, both front-runners of the republican and democratic parties respectively.

Here are the results:

Spring Semester Begins


North Greenville University

Yep. It’s that time of year. The Holidays are over, and school is starting back up. I’m headed back to school tomorrow, Monday morning. Once i get back, i will check in, get my key and start unpacking. Then two days later, classes start. I can’t wait to get back and see people. It’s gonna be a blast. This will be my second semester at North Greenville University. I’m a Freshman, studying Mass Communications with a concentration in Print Media and Web Design. I enjoy it. I miss hanging out with friends, so I’m ready to get back.

This semester I’m taking 17 hours, two hours more than last semester. I decided to take more hours to get more classes in a little faster. I plan to study more this semester and pull up my grade point average. Overall, I believe it will be a great semester, and I’m looking forward to it.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year 2008

Ah. Another year has passed. It is early morning on New Years Day. No partying for me. I’m sitting at home, reclined in a chair, watching Dick Clark’s Rockin New Years Eve, thinking about the past 365 days. There were some great ones, and well, some not so great ones. Overall it was a phenomenal year. Happy 2008, Everyone!

This is a new video in the New Song Cafe guitar instructional series from the always wonderful resource, worshiptogether.com. In this issue, Matt Maher, the host, meets with David Crowder, a worship leader and songwriter from Waco, Texas. He shares his song “O, For A Thousand Tongues to Sing” a remake of the old hymn, and he also teaches how he plays the song. It’s a great video. Check it out!

“Over And Over” by Three Days Grace

This song basically describes how i feel right now.

I feel it everyday it’s all the same
It brings me down but I’m the one to blame
I’ve tried everything to get away
So here I go again
Chasing you down again
Why do I do this?

Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to

It feels like everyday stays the same
It’s dragging me down and I can’t pull away
So here I go again
Chasing you down again
Why do I do this?

Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to
Over and over, over and over
You make me fall for you
Over and over, over and over
You don’t even try

So many thoughts that I can’t get out of my head
I try to live without you, every time I do I feel dead
I know what’s best for me
But I want you instead
I’ll keep on wasting all my time

Over and over, over and over
I fall for you
Over and over, over and over
I try not to
Over and over, over and over
You make me fall for you
Over and over, over and over
You don’t even try to

Homecoming

I haven’t made a post to this blog in over 5 months. Thats insane. So i decided to say a little something. Well I’m in college now. I’m a Freshman at North Greenville University. It’s really great here. Homecoming is this weekend. My family is coming down for the football game. It’s gonna rock. I’m pretty excited. I’ll probably  post some pictures later. We will be playing Concordia in the football game tomorrow. Hopefully we can win, because losing homecoming is always lame. So far our football team has a terrible record of something like 1-6. Yep. But i’ll keep you filled in this weekend. Who knows, i might actually start posting some more.
