I got done with senior design, if all goes well I’ll get an A, if not I’ll get a B, I don’t think there is any way I didn’t get an A or a B. Independent study is going, but stalled, which is bad, because a company is not responding to me. Don’t ever try to work with RFIdeas because they suck, and don’t answer your emails or calls.
Wedding stuff is going, but Lauren is freaking out pretty good. Which is OK because it is about that time close enough to the wedding that I can excuse it. I’m really looking forward to getting to Minneapolis, and I’m really really looking forward to being married.
I’ve been reading a lot of LJ communities that are very much populated with atheists and agnostic people, and it is very interesting. I like reading how other people can’t reason Christianity, and how they think reason automatically rules out religion. Oh well, you can’t please everyone I suspose, and apologetics won’t reach much of anyone these days. Also it is funny how quickly people say “hypnotism” or something as equally as absurd when you bring up any Holy Spirit kind of thing or anything miraclous for that matter.
Besides that, if you want to read something that can either be depressing or maybe encouraging check out this post on surviving sexual violence. It is all over the place, basically this woman came out and admitted that she has been raped, and has this “no shame, no pity, no silence” slogan that I like a lot. Then within that post she got over a thousand comments in a day that were about other people suviving rape and sexual violence. It is sorta touching, and sorta depressing. So, if you really believe that one in four statistic is bull (which some people do) go read that…maybe it will be eye opening for you.
Well, another depressing thing going on is that we offered to fly a good friend out from Cali, and there has been no return of our phone calls, so we are assuming she isn’t comming because she must be super busy not to return our calls offering to buy her a plane ticket, which is a total bummer. And then on top of dealing with that wedding bummer, we have bridesmaid dress issues, and they are being total dicks about it. Saying stuff like “well it isn’t really late” when they told us they should have been here a couple weeks ago. To add on top of that another good friend of mine might be forced to work so he might miss the wedding.
This post is now sufficiently depressing, so I think I’ll retire to bed now.
