Hectic Days & Days to Look Forward To

Things have been really hectic around here. I am involved with Concrete Canoe (and yes, it will float) though ASCE and we just had pour day today. It was a long day (from 8 am to 3:30 pm on a Saturday), but was a lot of fun. Other than that, I have been playing intramural basketball (man, I suck) and doing lots of homework. Lots of classes, so I do not have as much time as I wish sometimes, but oh well. It is a perseverance builder. I will survive.

On another note, I am pretty sure that I am going to Slidell, Louisiana over spring break to help with the relief effort after Hurricane Katrina. It is something that I am glad that I can be involved with. I am going with Memorial Lutheran Church in Ames. It will not be band tour, but it will be doing witnessing through actions.

I am also looking forward to Concrete Canoe Competition at the end of April in Iowa City, but that is a long way off and I need to keep focused on the present. That will keep me busy enough.
