1st week of class and Baton Rouge

Last week was my first week of classes and they went pretty well. My schedule looks good this semester and I’m lifting at 9AM Monday, Wednesday, Friday; which is way better than the fall semester. The women’s track team started the indoor season with a meet at LSU. I went up to Baton Rouge with a couple of guys from the team to watch the girls compete and it was a good first meet. A few girls had their personal bests and all the new girls have now competed in a college track meet. I ended up staying in Baton Rouge with some friends that go to LSU. We had a good time hanging out and I met some new people, too. One of the girls I met that hung out with us on Saturday kept thinking I looked a lot like someone she knew. Later that night my brother’s name came up in conversation and she asked if I knew him and I replied, “Yeah sort of…he’s my brother.” She thought I looked exactly like Gaines, but had no idea we were brothers so that was entertaining. Sunday night I went to Refuge at the Chapel and it was great. The worship was amazing and the service was good, too. I’m starting a lot of my event training this week so I’m sure I will be exhausted, but it will be another great week. I’m glad the semester is off to a good start and I’m looking forward to learning more and more like every other semester.
