Amazed, Thankful....and not frontin' (even if I risk embarrassment)

I'm amazed a completely inspired by the new realm of reading/entertainment/news that I've to which I've recently become privy. This thing called "blogging" is utterly amazing. 6 years ago, I learned enough html to make a very basic webpage that held my homework assignments for a design class that I took. I could never quite progress past my very crue attempt at what had become "the only way": having a webpage to boast of accomplishments. hobbies, photos etc. I just said to myself (and probably others) last week, that I really need to get a webpage. God must have been listening. Not that this is yet a true webpage, given that I'm at the mercy of the Blogger template, but at least it's a start, I have somewhere to get my thoughts out and I can (with a lot of work) post my pictures...which is all I really wanted to do anyway.
So to the point: I search Seaspot.com like a fiend, in attempts to activate my life when one day I ran across a post from
Ambra Nykol, a truly talented sis who speaks her mind and is quite a prolific writer. I can't find her original post about being a Black conservative but when I do I'll let you know. Anyway, so I had to find out who she was and if people who thought and spoke like this really live in Seattle/Tacoma....they do. This sis is too much. So check out her site www.nykola.com. I tapped into some other links on her site and saw that everyone was using this Blogger. So I figured, "Hey, lemme try!!!" So, here I am with a site that I really don't know how to work or format, but I'm forever indebted (well at least for a minute) to Ambra for being "Young, Black and Gifted" and having a site that I could easily copy ;)!
Thanks!....I'm sure she thinks I'm crazy as still don't know her but write her often as if she's my best friend. (That's the risk I was talking about ;)!

~Peace...gotta go to class!

TODAY'S THE DAY!!!!!!!!!!


TODAY IS MY ACTUAL BIRTHDAY!!!!!
24 years old...man how time flies. Like usual I'll be in school. I am so pleased to say that today is my first day of Graduate School at Fuller Theological Seminary
www.fuller.edu where I'll be working on a Master's in Divinity (M.Div). My first classes are Biblical Interpretation and get this; HEBREW!!!!!!!!! It's amazing, I'll be taking Hebrew. My academic advisor from school is from Israel so at least I'll have a practice partner ;)! I don't know how it will be paid for but I'll leave that up to God! Let's see.. I've made a one year goal to purchase my first home, upgrade my car and start a small business on the side. I have lots of ideas of what I could do, but none that have yet stuck.

Again,

WoW!....it's created

Amazing!...So I'm sitting here (won't say where but you know given the time of day) and I've just created or should I say uploaded this Blog Spot. It's amazing how you don't have to know anything to create something now days. I can't write much but as my new page has just been made I couldn't let this opp slide. I mean I've got a page up and running. I've got the highest of hopes and no skill to go with it. Pray that this'll work! :)!
